Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The third round of the competition began. The judge for this round was the shop owner, so the dishes only needed to be approved by the shop owner.

MO Ruyue looked at the other two people who were already busy. Actually, MO Ru Yue didn’t know what to do at this time. She wasn’t a professional chef, so she didn’t expect to enter the third round.

One of the two chefs was dealing with the fish, while the other was dealing with the pigs head.

It seemed like two tough dishes.

MO Ruyue looked at the materials behind her and hesitated.

Below the stage, MO Chengfeng looked at MO Ruyue with a folding fan in his hand and a trace of worry in his eyes.

Did Ruyue not know what she had done?

Actually, Ruyue could earn money from cooking any dish she wanted, but the money might not be as much as the first and second place.

“Damn it, I can’t compare to those two guys.”

MO Ruyue muttered softly. She was hesitating in front of all kinds of ingredients. She really didn’t know what to choose.

“Why hasn’t that woman started yet?”

“l don’t know. That woman is probably preparing to accumulate her ultimate move. When the time comes, she will amaze everyone.” “Yes, that must be the case. The skewers just now made me want more.”

“l really hope I can eat such delicious skewers in the future.”

Everyone was talking among themselves. They were very optimistic about MO Ruyue.

MO Ruyue hesitated for a while before picking up the eggplant and a piece of pork.

I’ll have minced meat and eggplant stew. This is the only thing she can make.

He had thought about making steak and spaghetti, but he always felt that the delicacies of China were much more delicious than those things.

She had eaten a lot of Western food, but she still felt that Chinese food was better.

Making steak and spaghetti was at most a little novel, but it might not be able to capture the appetite of others.

The minced meat and eggplant stew was relatively simple and convenient. Although it might not win, it would still leave a lingering aftertaste.

In this era, eggplants were only boiled and eaten with sauce.

At first, MO Ruyue did not understand this way of eating. It was obviously better to eat it stir-fried.

Later on, he found out that eggplants were too oily. Most people were reluctant to put oil in them.

“Time is up!”

The boss shouted, and the three people in the competition stopped. “l made braised mandarin fish. Please try it.”

The first chef spoke confidently. He was full of confidence in his dishes.

The boss nodded and picked up his chopsticks. The color, fragrance, and shape were not bad. He picked up a little fish and put it into his mouth.

Everyone stared at their boss, anticipating his expression.

The boss closed his eyes and chewed slowly. Then, he opened his eyes and didn’t make any comments.

Then, the boss went to another chef.

“I’m making braised pigs head meat. Please taste it.”

The boss tasted it again and nodded slowly, seemingly quite satisfied.

MO Ruyue was not as nervous as before when she saw this scene.

He had thought that the dishes made by the two chefs would definitely be stunning, but in the end, he realized that it was just so-so. There was nothing special about it and it was very ordinary.

This way, she seemed to have a little chance.

The boss finally arrived in front of MO Ruyue, only to see that she only had a pot of soup.

“What did you do?” he asked, puzzled.”

Soup?

It looked a little similar.

“Minced meat and eggplant casserole. Boss, please have a taste.” MO Ruyue smiled.’

As she spoke, MO Ruyue opened the lid, and a fragrant aroma wafted into her nose.

The boss was puzzled for a moment. He had already thought of how greasy the minced meat eggplant pot was.

He had never seen a chef who could make eggplant delicious.

However, the girl’s dish was fresh, and it might bring him some surprises.

He tasted it. It was smooth in his mouth, not greasy at all, and the eggplant was smooth…

It was too delicious!

It was the first time he had eaten such delicious eggplant. Moreover, it did not consume any oil. Together with the minced meat, it went very well with the rice.

“Give me a bowl of rice.’

The boss only wanted to eat a bowl of rice with minced meat and eggplant.

It was too appetizing.

MO Ruyue hurriedly scooped a bowl of rice for the boss. She secretly rejoiced when she saw the boss eating in large chunks.

This was all luck.

The people below saw the boss eating so happily and swallowed their saliva. They really wanted to taste it.

There was actually someone who could make eggplant so delicious. That was amazing.

After the match, the boss glanced at the people in front of him and announced,””l hereby announce that the first place winner of this cooking competition is Minced Meat Eggplant Stew, the second place winner is Braised

Pig Head Meat, and the third place winner is Braised Osmanthus Fish…” MO Ruyue suppressed the joy in her heart and winked at MO Chengfeng.

A pot of minced meat and eggplant overshadowed the crowd.

MO Chengfeng raised his chin slightly and smiled.

He did not expect Ruyue’s cooking skills to be so good.

Truly amazing.

After that, it was time to give out the rewards. The boss invited the three winners into the restaurant. He still had something to say to them.

“I’m a businessman, so I won’t beat around the bush. I want your recipes. You can’t sell them to other restaurants except for your own use. If you agree, we can sign an agreement.”

The boss was also a straightforward person and did not beat around the bush. He organized this competition to find dishes.

Experts were among the common people. He hoped that through this competition, his restaurant’s business would be even more prosperous. “If you don’t want to, I won’t force you, but I won’t give you the reward.”

This was how business was. If there was no profit to be made, what business would he do?

“l totally agree,” replied MO Ruyue after some thought.

He had earned five thousand taels of silver from using the recipe.

There shouldn’t be anything more profitable than this in the world, right?

The other two hesitated and did not give an answer.

They were serious chefs, so they would definitely cook for other restaurants in the future.

He couldn’t fulfill the conditions that his boss had offered.

“What are you two still hesitating about?” The shop owner continued to ask.

Is it so difficult to consider?

Wasn’t the silver he gave enough?

“l can’t do it. I can’t give you the recipe.”

“That’s right. The recipe will not be passed on to others!”

The two chefs didn’t agree. They relied on their own dishes to make a living. If they revealed the recipe to others and couldn’t go to other restaurants to cook this kind of dish in the future, wouldn’t that make things difficult for them?

The shop owner’s face darkened, and his gaze shifted between the two of them.

“Since that’s the case, I can’t give you the rewards you’ve obtained in this competition.”

He wasn’t doing charity work, he was doing this competition just to get some recipes.

Since he didn’t give her the recipe, she couldn’t blame him.

MO Ruyue remained silent at the side. These two chefs were also stubborn. If they couldn’t cook, couldn’t they pass on their recipes to their sons or disciples?

The shop owner didn’t say that he couldn’t pass it on to his son or disciple.

Of course, this had nothing to do with her, so she didn’t plan to meddle in other people’s business.

As long as he could get the money, it would be fine.

MO Ruyue thought to herself.

In the end, the two chefs could only leave angrily. They were unwilling to sell their dishes, and the boss naturally would not give them the money.

MO Ruyue was the only one who signed an agreement, promising that she would not sell the recipe to anyone else.

“Young lady, I’ve kept the five thousand taels of silver.”

“Thank you, Boss. Boss is very generous.”

MO Ruyue accepted the five thousand taels of silver that she should have received with a smile on her face.

Adding on the money she got from selling the Black Heart Fruit, she had quite a bit of money on hand.

However, this amount of money was not enough to buy a storage ring..
