After two consecutive weeks of screening, 32 qualifying places were finally determined, and the list of 64 people participating in the final was released. On the day the list was announced, there were group draws on site in the studio in Qiantang TV Station.

In the first round of the final, 64 contestants were divided into eight groups, each with four qualifying places, entering the top 32.[]

When the host revealed the list of the fourth group, the name of the river finally appeared.

"The fourth group of contestants, No. 17, Xiao Yalin;... No. 8, Jiangbian..."

Jiangbian was actually assigned to a group with Xiao Yalin.

As soon as the name by the river appeared, in front of the TV, several half-legged people in Liu Huijun's winery immediately exclaimed.

"A riverside? Could it be the riverside of the Jiang family group? Second sister! Come and see, is this riverside the Jiang family group the riverside? Did he work as a chef in Qiantang? He even entered the finals!" Liu Dingxiang shouted immediately.

Liu Jingyi immediately gave his cousin a blank look, "You pig's brain! Why are you fussing for nothing?"

Banshan Village is not a big place. Although it is in different groups, the entire Banshan Village will immediately know everything about any family. Liu Huijun had such a big thing and the riverside, so where did the people in Banshan Village not know? As a relative of Liu Huijun's family, he is naturally very clear.

Liu Dingxiang also knew that she had said the wrong thing, "Aren't you so excited all of a sudden?"

"If it weren't for your curved boyfriend, why were you excited?" Liu Jingyi cursed with a smile.

"You are not a winding person? I don't like that lazy man by the river!" Liu Dingxiang glared at Liu Jingyi.

In fact, Liu Huijun heard the name of the riverside early in the morning and walked over quickly. The name was word-of-mouth, but there were no photos. There were so many people with the same name and surname in the world. Who knows if it was the riverside? Besides, this is the final circle of the cooking competition. Even if Jiangbian is a chef and can participate in the cooking competition, he will still enter the final circle? Isn’t this a big deal?

Although this name made Liu Huijun slam, it did not have much impact on Liu Huijun.

When a few people saw Liu Huijun coming out, they couldn't talk about the riverside.

"There are many people with the same name and surname, and this person should not be from our Mid-mountain village." Li Qiu said.

Liu Huijun nodded, "Well, let's talk about it, it's not long before the riverside comes out? Just where can I learn from a chef?" Liu Huijun seems to be not afraid of things on the riverside.

"I just heard about No. 17, Xiao Yalin?" Liu Huijun turned around and asked.

"Yes, yes, it's with a group called Jiangbian. The first one is Xiao Yalin! By the way, our big customer is Yalin Fish Flavor Restaurant? Second sister, the one you are talking about is the owner of Yalin Fish Flavor Restaurant?" Liu Jingyi often goes to Yalin Fish Flavor Restaurant, so he naturally has a deep impression of Xiao Yalin's name.

"Xiao Yalin? Jingyi, do you know this Xiao Yalin? How old are you?" Liu Dingxiang said.

"Why don't you know? Rose's female boss, our big customer, has seen it once or twice when we went to deliver the wine. It's over twenty o'clock. She is so beautiful! She is even more beautiful than the reporter named Manqing. It's a waste to put it in the kitchen!" Liu Jingyi said.

"What do you know? Chefs are in the high-income industry. A chef earns at least tens of thousands of dollars a month, and at most tens of thousands of dollars a month. He is definitely a super white-collar worker. He opens a fish restaurant like Xiao Yalin, and earns at least hundreds of thousands a month. I didn't expect that the female boss of Rose is so capable!" Liu Dingxiang often reads newspaper news and seems to be very familiar with these things.

"Why are you talking so much? You're doing it! The boss's wife paid us a salary, but we didn't ask us to guard the TV. Dingxiang, go and order the goods you want to send today, let Jingyi deliver them early, and you can also contact us more to see if you can expand your business. Now, it's not enough to pay our salary. Tomorrow, we will also help and load the goods into the car. Then finish the work in the winery. How much people earn is their business. If the boss's wife can't make money, I think you are embarrassed to eat and live well and get a monthly salary!" Li Qiu said.

Li Qiulai was like a big brother in the winery. Except for Liu Huijun, he was the most effective.

***

When the list came out, Li Yueji and Xiao Yalin were also guarding the TV. When they heard the name of the riverside, Li Yueji was completely stunned.

"Hey! Rose, why are you stunned? Isn't it just a group list?" Xiao Yalin looked at Li Yueji's stunned look and laughed.

Li Yueji seemed not to hear Xiao Yalin's words and said to herself, "I knew that day, I saw it. It turns out to be! Why did he become a chef?"

Xiao Yalin was a little confused when she heard Li Yueji's speech without any ends, "Why are you stunned? Rose? Who is the person you are talking about?"

Xiao Yalin patted Li Yueji on the shoulder, and Li Yueji came to her senses, "I'm talking about an acquaintance. He actually became a chef! He is still in the same group with you! But it's very strange! He has only been to Qianjiang for a few months, and he came later than me! Why did he become a chef?"

Xiao Yalin laughed silently, "Silly girl, there are many people with the same name and surname! How do you know that person is the one in your village? I want to search for Li Yueji online, and I guess I can find tens of thousands of them!"

"But, but, that day, I saw him with my own eyes at the opening ceremony of the cooking competition." Li Yueji said.

"You didn't see clearly, maybe you read it wrong, and there will be a live competition soon. You can see if it is that person at that time! Well, this person is very important to you! As soon as you hear this name, you will see your absent-minded look!" Xiao Yalin suddenly thought of the most critical point.

Li Yueji nodded, "He has saved me twice!"

All women have the potential to gossip, no matter how old the woman is, what profession she is in, and what status she is. Although Xiao Yalin is obsessed with cooking, she is completely normal in other aspects.

"Tell me quickly, there are probably many stories here, right?" Xiao Yalin smiled.

Li Yueji smiled shyly, "It's a long story, let's talk about it later!" Li Yueji kept silent and didn't even say the person's name.

When Jiangbian and Yan Yuan saw the grouping situation, Jiangbian didn’t feel much. Which group was divided into, there was not much concept for him. Whole group was all participating in the competition?

"Brother, come on! My brother supports you with all his strength! This time, I personally helped you. If you have any requirements, just say it." Yan Yuan said.

"Go, pour me a glass of water!" said Jiangbian.

Yan Yuan got up and walked towards the water dispenser, smiling, "Is it that you want Biluochun or Tieguanyin?"

The riverside was just a joke, but unexpectedly, Yan Yuan was really like an assistant to pour water for himself, and smiled, "Go and take the best Maojian bag hidden in your office drawer and soak it for me."

"You think beautifully!" Yan Yuan smiled.

The two of them laughed.

Since the opening day of the cooking competition, the riverside rarely enters the kitchen, and no one knows what he is busy with every day.

Every time Yan Yuan asked, the riverside would always smile mysteriously and said, "Prepare some secret weapons."

However, Yan Yuan also comes to the fish restaurant every day. Whenever he has time, he will ask Liu Jiedong about the famous dishes in Qiantang. Needless to ask, Liu Jiedong also understands that the riverside is preparing to cook Qiantang famous dishes in the cooking competition.

Although the cooking process and side dishes of Qiantang famous dishes can be easily found, the real Qiantang famous dishes cannot be made based on ingredients and processing procedures.

The same ingredients, the same ingredients, the same process, and the dishes cooked by different chefs will have a huge difference in taste. This is the unique charm of Chinese cuisine.
