Ma Tianyao nodded, Zheng Guangming's assistant took Ma Tianyao to the eighth floor of the hotel with a smile, opened the door for her with a room card, and said goodbye with a smile.

She called Shi Xiaoxiao, but she waited until twelve o'clock in the evening and fell asleep before she heard the knock on the door. When she opened the door, she saw Shi Xiaoxiao was drunk and was singing something vaguely with a microphone.

...

At seven o'clock the next morning, the guest room department brought breakfast to the two of them intimately. After eating, the assistant last night was already waiting at the door with a smile.

He took the two downstairs and the Audi A8 was already waiting.

This time, Zheng Guangming drove the car in person. Master Niu sat in the co-pilot. Seeing that the two of them were coming down, his eyes that were originally looking here turned back to the car.

Then the car window glass was raised, and Ma Tianyao fell to himself and opened the rear car door and went in.

"Pony, breakfast is OK?"

"It's pretty good, thank you."

"Haha, that's right, let's go."

After the simple conversation, Zheng Guangming put on his sunglasses, turned around, drove towards the entrance of the highway, and followed by an Audi A4, who should also be the staff of the hotel.

It is only more than 80 kilometers from Heishui County to Xianyang City. Zheng Guangming drove slowly. After about an hour, the car arrived downstairs of the Earl Hotel in Xianyang City.

"We are here. Today's competition is in this hotel. Don't look at the broken hotel, they are still very powerful. In this competition, they are our strongest competitors."

Next, perhaps because he was afraid of the cold, Zheng Guangming explained the origin of the Earl Hotel to Ma Tianyao and his party.

"This hotel is the first hotel in Xianyang City and is now the oldest hotel in Qinxi Province. Although the buildings are old, it has been hosted by many dignitaries, from domestic high-ranking officials to foreign merchants and tycoons, all of them have been received here..."

While talking, he took Ma Tianyao and others to the top floor.

"Today's game is on the top floor, and there are 30 minutes left. Let's get familiar with the venue first..."

On the top floor, the corridor is covered with scarlet carpets. Although the wallpaper on the walls on both sides is no longer gorgeous, it is also more quaint and thick.

There are banners hanging on the wall, which read:

"Welcome to come and guide you!"

As soon as the elevator came, a hotel waiter smiled and led everyone into the waiting area.

The gym and conference hall on the rooftop, the venue for this competition, was renovated from the largest conference hall.

When Ma Tianyao entered, the venue had been almost arranged. There were twenty temporary simple stoves in the middle. The front and left and right sides were arranged as conference tables, covered with white velvet cloth, and signs stood on it, saying that a certain hotel representative was supposed to be the seats for the twenty hotel representatives participating in the competition.

There are only three judges in the row of tables in front of them, with names written on them, namely Liu Jinlai, Huang Hao and Xu Guanghua.

Zheng Guangming whispered to Ma Tianyao to introduce all the three judges. Anyway, there are many names, either the chairman of the association, the honorary president of the association, or the honorary consultant of the hotel. In short, Ma Tianyao didn't remember one, and didn't recognize the other.

After the introduction was completed, the time was almost the same. At this time, a large number of people flocked to the venue, many of them were wearing white chef's clothes.

Zheng Guangming suddenly slapped his forehead, and with a whine, his face immediately changed.

"I forgot to prepare the chef for you!!!"

"Is this a hard requirement?"

Ma Tianyao asked, and Zheng Guangming shook his head and became embarrassed again.

"Although it's not a hard requirement, it's better to wear than not to wear it. If you get points deducted because of this, it would be too unfair..."

"Forget it, it's already like this. By the way, I have all the materials I reported yesterday, right?"

This is what Ma Tianyao cares about. When Zheng Guangming heard this, his face looked a little strange.

"It's really hard to say, there was almost a problem. What kind of mess you want is? I heard from the people from the Earl Hotel call and said that it took a lot of effort to find you..."

The group sat in their seats and chatted. Chefs and representatives from other hotel competitions also came in one after another. After everyone arrived, the three judges entered the venue in suits and tied lightly from outside.

The three of them are all men, and they are about the same age, about fifty years old, and they seem to know each other. They smiled and lowered their heads on the stage and talked for a few words. Then the one named Liu Jinlai said first.

"Haha, everyone is welcome to participate in this competition on time, so... let's start..."

This is a contest between the hotel and the chef, not for the performance to show anyone, so there is no host, and there are no fancy contestants crying and selling poorly.

Before he finished speaking, the above announced that it had begun. Liu Jinlai smiled and waved his hand.

"Then, your representative chefs can come up in the twenty hotels that were tested in this game and find their own competition positions according to the ingredients they provide."

This is undoubtedly a small test. As a chef, if you don’t even know the ingredients, it is purely unnecessary to come here.

Ma Tianyao looked off the field and soon found her stove. She said nonsense, so she asked for a freezer. It would be a damn thing if she could not recognize her.

"Then I'm going?"

"come on!!!"

Zheng Guangming clenched her fist and shouted, then looked at Shi Xiaoxiao next to her and asked.

"Aren't you her assistant? Why don't you go up?"

Shi Xiaoxiao curled her lips and clenched her fists and said.

"I am her assistant. Look, aren't I shouting to come on? Come on!!!"

Zheng Guangming felt that his IQ was pressed to the ground and rub, rub, rub, rub...

Off the field, twenty hotel chefs were already standing in front of their own stoves, and except for some of them, most of them were alone.

Liu Jinlai smiled and was about to start, but when he looked down at the scene, he exclaimed. Among the crowd wearing tall hats and white chef's clothes, there was a girl with short hair and plaid sweater. He couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Little girl, are you... a chef? Which hotel is from?"

Ma Tianyao smiled slightly with tiger teeth.

"Heishui County, Tianyutian Hotel."

"Where is your chef's clothes?"

Liu Jinlai was the most hygienic among the three. Seeing that Ma Tianyao was not wearing a chef's uniform, her impression score was already low to freezing point. She put away her smile and frowned. Zheng Guangming's face turned pale. She thought to herself that if she was disqualified from the assessment because of this, she would really have to hang herself...

Just in front of this unsolvable answer, Ma Tianyao made a move, and his IQ exploded, which turned around. She bent down slightly to Liu Jinlai and bowed apologetically.

"I'm really sorry. When I came in just now, I accidentally got the chef's clothes dirty. With the attitude of being responsible to customers and food hygiene, I decided to take off the chef's clothes and cook."

Sure enough, Liu Jinlai's brows slowly stretched out, and he nodded and smiled.

"Haha, although not wearing chef's clothes has hygiene risks for making dishes, it is definitely much better than wearing dirty chef's clothes. Your attitude is still good. OK, forget it this time, you should pay attention next time, hurry up and start!"

Ma Tianyao smiled and bowed to the other party again, and then Zheng Guangming breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter completed!
