Douluo Continent on the tip of the tongue

"Father, you are so right!" Not long after Wu Yue left, she suddenly rushed into the kitchen again, "The Catering Association really sent someone to invite you to be a judge."

"As expected." Wu Henian's face looked a little more complacent. It was obvious that he benefited from his daughter's admiration, "Who is Han Shi's opponent?"

"It's Mingting Palace."

"Who?!" Wu Henian casually threw away the ingredients in his hand and suddenly turned his head to look at Wu Yue.

"I don't believe it either." Wu Yue smiled strangely, "But I asked several times and it is indeed Mingting Palace."

"Is this young man too strong-minded?" Wu Henian shook his head, "Well, since he has to challenge such a strong opponent, we can only let him stumble... Huh? Isn't that right?"

Wu Henian frowned slightly, "Why did Ming Tingque agree?"

Wu Henian knew Zhao Yangfan, the manager of Mingting Palace. Even though he had a friendly smile on his face, he was a very proud person. Logically speaking, he would not even take a look at a restaurant like Hanshi that had just opened.

, but now he actually agreed to Hanshi’s meal competition?

What is this concept?

It is equivalent to a newly signed author challenging a platinum author, and the platinum boss agrees without saying a word...

"Um...Father, the actual situation may be slightly different from what you think." Wu Yue coughed lightly, "It was Ming Tingque who initiated the meal competition."

Um?

Wu Henian's eyes widened.

A platinum author challenges a newly signed author? Isn’t this even more magical?

No, there's something fishy about this.

His frown deepened.

"In this case, you go tell the people at the Catering Association that I agree...forget it, I'll go by myself." Wu Henian shook his head. He wanted to find out the situation in person.

Soon, Wu Henian learned from someone from the Catering Association the whole process of the matter and the three themes drawn by the two parties, but the doubts in his heart did not ease at all.

After looking at the sky, he walked out of Tianxing Zhai.

"Eh, eh? Dad, where are you going?" Wu Yue was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "It's lunch time soon."

"Yes, it will be lunch time soon." Wu Henian nodded, but did not stop for a moment, "You guard the store, I will go to Hanshi to check the situation."

"ha?"

"I'm going to confirm whether that young man has the strength to match his heart."

…

Walking quickly to Mink Street, Wu Henian made some inquiries and soon arrived at the door of Hanshi.

Hanshi is not open for business yet, but there are already hundreds of people waiting in front of the door. Such a scale is rare.

Let alone Mink Street, even on Riyue Avenue, there are very few stores with such a large queue waiting in front of the door.

Even in Tianxing Zhai, such a situation is rare. Of course, this is because Tianxing Zhai is open from morning to night, and the store area is larger, so all the diners who come to eat come in and wait.

If we really want to calculate it, Tianxingzhai's business will definitely be better than Hanshi's now.

But this still surprised Wu Henian. You should know that Hanshi is a new store that just opened.

"Boss Wu, are you here too?" A voice came from the side. Wu Henian turned around and nodded, "Boss Li, long time no see."

This is also the owner of a restaurant on Riyue Avenue. Although his strength is not as good as Tianxingzhai and Mingtingque, he is still at the top. This time, he must have been invited by the Catering Association to serve as a judge, so he came over in advance to take a look at this cold food like himself.

Who exactly is it?

"This cold food is a bit complicated, Boss Wu." Boss Li winked at Wu Henian, then leaned closer and whispered, "I came earlier than you, guess what I discovered?"

This Boss Li just loves to show off.

Wu Henian shook his head helplessly, "What did you find?"

"Hehe." Boss Li pointed at the diners at the front of the queue in a vague way, "Take a closer look at who are the people in line in front of you?"

Following Boss Li's instructions, Wu Henian looked at the diners in front of him and was slightly surprised.

Among the diners in line, there were actually a few people he was very familiar with.

And these people, without exception, are all important officials of the Sun and Moon Empire.

this…

Looking at the way these important ministers were chatting and laughing with others, it was obvious that the other people in line were also not simple, and most likely they were also imperial ministers.

Why do the ministers of the empire appear here together?!

Wu Henian felt as if he was dreaming.

Tianxingzhai and Mingtingque are equally famous, but their business concepts are completely different. Tianxingzhai has been adhering to the simple concept of making food affordable for ordinary people from the very beginning. Although its dishes are more expensive than ordinary restaurants

It is more expensive, but it is affordable to most people in Mingdu.

In contrast, Ming Ting Que pays more attention to style and nobility because the chefs are all former imperial chefs. Not only the dishes are expensive, but the diners in the restaurant are mainly dignitaries. Because the palace stands behind it, the ministers wanted to show their respect.

Being so close to the royal family, I basically choose to eat here.

In other words, these imperial ministers lining up here waiting for the cold food to open should be the guests of Mingting Palace.

A doubt lingering in Wu Henian's heart finally dissipated at this moment.

Why did Ming Tingque take the initiative to find Hanshi?

Hanshi attracted so many ministers of the DPRK, which dug the roots of Mingtingque. Of course Mingtingque would look for Hanshi!

This is not a simple meal competition, it is revenge from Ming Ting Que!

And the boss of Hanshi has a bit of a youthful spirit, so how could he not accept Ming Tingque's provocation?

After taking a breath, Wu Henian's face became slightly solemn.

That young man named Qi Han... I'm afraid he may be in big trouble this time.

Ming Tingque directly launched a meal competition for a newly opened restaurant. This is shameless at all, and he wants to kill Hanshi!

Because of his admiration for Qi Han, Wu Henian wanted to help Hanshi.

But after thinking about it for a while, he could only sigh in despair.

Although Tianxingzhai and Mingtingque are equally famous, in terms of powerful connections, the two are not on the same level at all.

It is not impossible for Ming Tingque to use certain means to suppress Tianxing Zhai, but the other party has not done so in recent years. As for why the other party has not done so, the reason must be traced back to the founder of Tianxing Zhai a hundred years ago, that is, Wu Henian.

On my great-grandfather.

At that time, Wu Henian's great-grandfather's cooking skills were so strong that even the chefs at Mingting Que were no match. Seeing Wu's great-grandfather killing all the way, he was about to start a meal competition with Ming Tingque.

Tingque couldn't sit still at all.

The two parties sat down and negotiated, and finally the great-grandfather of the Wu family stopped launching a meal competition, which left Ming Tingque with a face. In return, Ming Tingque promised to never use means other than cooking to target Tianxingzhai.

.

Behind Ming Ting Que stands the royal family. Breaking a promise would harm the royal family's face, so they have kept their promises all these years.

But Qi Han and Ming Tingque did not make any promises. With such contradictions between the two parties, if the meal competition fails, the consequences can be imagined.

Watching Hanshi's shop door open and diners pouring in, Wu Henian's eyes were full of regret.

Let’s see what Qi Han’s confidence is in accepting the meal competition.

If his cooking skills are really good, there might be a chance of a turn in this matter.

As for Hanshi's victory over Mingting Que...

Stop joking.
