《Little chef》34-Only nine taels and six coins
Advertisement
The audience saw that the four judges were still unphased when chomping down on the first bite.
But when the fish entered their mouth their expression changed instantly.
Then their speed, when they took the fish with their chopsticks, was faster. It was clear to everyone that they kept a calm demeanor but it was obvious that they ate faster.
Four people quickly devoured the plate of food; The whole squirrel mandarin fish was immediately cleaned up!
The judges were still not satisfied and don't know who started it first but they went to eat the soybeans and green beans as a side dish.
The soft beans covered in sweet and sour broth almost made them swallow their tongue.
It was truly delicious!
They don't even need to say it, the audience could see it clearly!
Woo woo woo, they want to eat too!
They want to eat!
Has this young chef opened any restaurant?
They could spend money just to eat it!
What a painful experience this was! They saw the food and smelled the food, but they couldn't eat it! Just couldn't eat!
What a pain!!!
Who doesn't want to taste that fish!
The four judges wanted to eat the sauce too but they had to maintain decorum.
They couldn't give the answers immediately. There were nine dishes left and they had to taste them all before they could give the answer.
What if there were dishes at par with one?
But in the next nine dishes, there was only one steamed fish for them to taste the second time but it was not as good as the first one!
This first dish was much more delicious!
Needless to say, Su Tang certainly advanced to the next round.
"I said she would get advanced!"
"Ah, who says she can't cook grandiose dishes !!!"
"God, if only I could taste that fish."
"I really want to taste it. It must be delicious."
"The judges devoured that dish. Can it not be delicious?"
"They eat too much. They are all officials in the Government. They should have restrained themselves."
"If I were in front of such delicious dishes, I would eat like that too!"
"Who made this dish? It seems familiar?"
Finally, this sentence made everyone silent!
This was a competition! They all remember the contestants.
Maybe it was because the young chef was so different?
"In fact, we don't know her name, but since the first time, she has been cooking out of the ordinary."
"Yes, it's unexpected every time. I've seen it since her first-round competition. The technique is different every time."
"It's too strong, there were people who said she couldn't cook grandiose dishes before, but this time it's a direct slap on the face."
"Yes, if this squirrel mandarin fish was not called grandiose then what is a grandiose dish?"

The others listened to them praising the young chef and curiosity rose in their hearts.
When they knew that the young chef was the one who made steamed acacia flowers their eyes were full of shock.
Then the person sharing the recipe is a woman?
They have all eaten steamed acacia, but they don't know that it was created by a woman. They felt ashamed!

As a result, Su Tang's reputation became more famous among the audiences.
People may not know her name but when they talked about steamed acacia, they would know it right away!
They didn't expect her to cook such an elegant dish as steamed acacia flowers then she came up with another great one like squirrel mandarin fish!
Sure enough, this dish was passed by all votes, and Su Tang can directly enter the next round of competition.
During this time, at the back of the competition platform, Qi Tian Yun and the young emperor, Shi Ding were tasting dishes.
They moved very fast. They all aimed at the squirrel mandarin fish. In fact, they didn't need Su Tang to explain because they all know why she named it so.
It was obvious!
The mandarin fish was made as lovely and lively as a little squirrel.
But the point is!
Delicious! It was really delicious!
This dish was sweet and sour, tender and tasty, with the freshness of the fish, the sweetness of the sauce, and the crispness of the fried batter.
Finally, there was the side dish of green beans and soybeans.
Obviously!
Another point was equally important.

That was it.
The consumers didn't even need to pick the fish bones!!
The most annoying thing about eating fish was fish bones, but Su Tang cleaning it makes people feel reassured when eating it!
As for the remaining nine dishes, Shi Ding tasted a few with the young emperor and put down their chopsticks.
Qi Tian Yun didn't even touch it, which shows their attitude.
News also came from the outside competition that Su Tang successfully advanced!
Gotten straight into the fifth round!
And it also smashed everyone's doubts about her.
Didn't people just say that she could only cook homemade dishes and couldn't cook grandiose dishes at all?
And now?
Would they keep saying that?
The 30 contestants who were advanced stayed and the others had to leave.
The cooking skills of these thirty players were already far above average, picking out a random one out of this lot would be difficult.
But the most eye-catching thing was Su Tang.
After all, the squirrel mandarin fish just now was really good-looking and delicious. Knowing that she was also the creator of steamed acacia, many people were secretly trying to find out about Su Tang.
Which restaurant was she running? Why haven't they heard of her or why they never go to her restaurant to eat?
Then someone immediately spread Su Tang's address.
Then many people at the scene became aware of Su Tang.
There's no other way, the squirrel mandarin fish was just too good to look at and the judges had the most fun eating it.
And the reputation of steam acacia before.
Su Tang should have been famous for a long time!
She stayed low-key all this time so no one ever heard her name but now her name was known to everyone.
Otherwise, how could the staff in her restaurant not even know that she was participating in the God of Cooking competition?
But it was actually because Su Tang was too lazy to talk much.
More and more people started paying attention to Su Tang.

Until she left the scene of the competition, people still talked about her.
Passersby may just have been watching the excitement, but Jing Liang, the young owner of Jing Shui Pavilion, as an expert, knows very well that the dish just now doesn't just look good because neither her knife techniques nor making sauce skills could be practiced overnight.
Su Tang's movements were too agile. She has extraordinary talent and intelligence.
Su Tang came home and drank some water first. She was still waiting for someone.
Sure enough, in less than one hour, the door of the small restaurant was knocked on.
She correctly predicted the person who knocked at the door. That's the Boss of Ying Chun Pavilion.
Mr. Zhang looked at Su Tang and said, "I just want to buy some steamed stuffed buns. I'm really hungry."
It was already past noon and he was still coming to the breakfast store to buy steamed buns, who would believe it?
Whitelist us. Ad revenue gives additional support to the translator and keeps the site running.
Hearing Su Tan says that the buns have been sold out for the day, Mr. Zhang was not surprised, as if just casually mentioning, "So, forget it, speaking of which, you still want to take over the Ying Chun Pavilion ?"
Su Tang's face was amazing, "Didn't I entrust someone to say that the transfer price is too expensive?" Su Tang smiled embarrassedly, "I really don't have so much money. I really can't help it."
Mr. Zhang sighed in his heart, not bad for a young girl, she already knows how to bargain in business.
He thought that if he caught a fat sheep, he could quickly throw out the hot potato of Ying Chun Pavilion. Who thought that Su Tang just asked the question, never sent back the word.
In the past few days, some people also asked about the Ying Chun Pavilion, but just asked a little about the monthly expenses, then those people bailed out, not even asking about the transfer fee.
After all, the cost of running a restaurant was too high.
Not to mention that the restaurant was in the West district, their Ying Chun Pavilion chef's skill was not bad, but he wondered why the business has been losing money.
Now it was already May, if he doesn't throw this restaurant out, he would have to pay another 30 taels of rent!
Who asked him to sign a five-year contract directly at that time? If he broke the contract, he would also lose more than 20 taels. It was better to find someone to take over. At least let him not lose the rent in the second half of the year!
God, what was he thinking? He opened a restaurant in the west district!
Mr. Zhang said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. We can talk about the transfer fee again. I think if you sincerely want to buy it we can negotiate again."
Su Tang seemed to ask casually and didn't take it to heart, "Oh? You don't want the transfer fee now?"
No transfer fee?!
Mr. Zhang simply felt that Su was asking too much!
But Su Tang's tone was very calm as if the restaurant really didn't matter.
If Mr. Zhang was not helpless, he wouldn't place his hope on the little girl.

Anyone with a clear eye could see that whoever took over the restaurant was at a loss and could only cheat the little girl.
Mr. Zhang took a deep breath: "Young Miss, there's nothing so simple. Look at the decoration of my Ying Chun Pavilion, it's quite good. It cost more than 30 taels of silver at the beginning, as well as all kinds of decorations in the kitchen, hall and every room. Which is not really making money. If you buy it yourself, I'm afraid you can't come without a hundred taels."
Su Tang interrupted him, "But you have opened the store for a year and a half, will these items not get damaged, are they still brand new?"
This sentence choked Mr. Zhang back directly. He was just making a false high price to scare Su Tang.
But unexpectedly, Su Tang was so courageous that he was so scared that he didn't dare to make a counteroffer.
However, the more Su Tang was like this, the more confident Mr. Zhang was to give her the Ying Chun Pavilion.
Anyway! He could confirm he doesn't need to pay the rent for the second half of the year!
That was for sure!
"That's what you said, but it's hard for me. In fact, the business of Ying Chun Pavilion is good. I wouldn't sell the shop if my old mother wasn't ill." Mr. Zhang pretended to be in a hard decision, "By the way, I heard that you have reached the top 30 in the God of Cooking competition. Look at you, so powerful. I dare to say that you can make a lot of money by managing the Ying Chun Pavilion with your cooking skills. You can't be in this small restaurant forever."
Su Tang was amused, she knew that she was getting famous this time and Mr. Zhang would come to the door again.
No way! What made her look young and made it seem that the words 'easy to fool' were written on her face.
Su Tang hesitated, "can I really make money? I thought you couldn't run it anymore."
If Su Tang doesn't put an innocent expression, Mr. Zhang would have thought she was doing it on purpose.
But this could only be done by good words coaxing, "Really can ah, you think about our whole west district, there is only one big restaurant and near the pier, buzzing with many people. Do you still doubt your cooking skills?"
Yes, if his opponent were not a strong-minded person, they may have been coaxed by Mr. Zhang.
Su Tang remained hard-headed; she sighed and said, "Mr. Zhang, to be honest, I want to buy it, but I really don't have money in my hand. How can I ask for it?"
After hearing this, Mr. Zhang immediately cheered up and asked, "How much silver do you have in your hand and what price can you pay to take over the Ying Chun Pavilion?"
Hearing this, Su Tang was even more embarrassed.
"I have only nine taels and six wens money in my hand. Look, if the price is right, I'll take over the Ying Chun Pavilion."

Elania, Arachne in a different world
Does have GL subplot later on. Warning: Since some people do not seem to get the slice of life idea, this story is SLOW. There is action and I intend to write more of it but don't come here expecting it to be the focus 24/7. A young woman from Earth wakes up in a cave, disoriented, confused, amnesic and with her lower body replaced by that of a giant spider. She has no idea what she stumbled into and all the extra sensations were definitely not helping. "Did I get reincarnated into a fantasy world?" She's not quite sure. But, the goblin, the troll and (soon enough) the hot elf all suggest "yes." As much as it creeps her out, her new body is powerful and flexible in some very interesting 'spidery' ways as she slowly learns to live with it. Combined with what modern knowledge she can still remember, the newly christened Elania soon finds herself building a new life as an adventurer among the elves. Who knows what awaits her? Maybe, just maybe, she might even find happiness along the way. There will be a fair amount of errors in writing up until chapter 43 (where I got a proper proofreader/editor to help me out.) Chapters 1-20 or so will at some point receive partial rewriting because I don't quite like the flow and feel there are some parts that don't make as much sense as they should. Please don't suggest edits for chapters up until 43, anything after that, feel free to in case we missed anything. Find me on discord at : https://discord.gg/TqFjdv8uaE

2nd Chance
It's my first time writing a story so you might spot a lot of amateur mistakes but feel free to criticize my writing as much as you like. Anyways, to give you a quick idea of what the story is all about, the original title of this novel was supposed to be "The Yankee in Another World" but when I thought about writing that in the cover I immediately thought 'HELL NAW' and went with a different one and I feel like the new title captures the essence of this story more. because although it's categorized as an Isekai, the story is more focused on redemption rather than the Isekai fantasy. Hopefully, I'll be able to update this synopsis once I thought of one.
