Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 331

Li Xiao thought it was after old Mr. Cai Rongsheng finished speaking.

There will be a swarm of people rushing to the position of the two cows and pigs, after all, there are extra points.

But what surprised him was that no one cared about the two huge fat pigs and the two pigs. Everyone went to the place where chickens, ducks and fish were placed.

Li Bingsheng did not rush over to choose his favorite chicken, duck and fish like everyone else, because he didn't care at all, whether it was a few minutes more or less.

When he saw that Li Xiao didn't act, he hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart:
"Aren't you hurrying to pick out your materials?"

Li Xiao asked back with some amusement:
"Didn't you go too? By the way, why don't they all choose to kill pigs and cattle?"

Li Bingsheng followed Li Xiao's fingers and looked at the two fat pigs and scalpers who looked very comfortable and didn't even know that they were in disaster.

The corner of his mouth twitched and said angrily:

"You really don't know or are you fake?"

Seeing that Li Xiao was still puzzled, Li Bingsheng explained:

"The killing of pigs and cattle will basically be left to the staff to kill, and no one wants to touch it at all."

"Because most of the time what you get is not bonus points but deductions. Who is willing to do thankless things?"

"But if it's your knife skills, you should be able to get extra points, right? Are you right? Full marks brother?"

After speaking, he looked at Li Xiao with slightly provocative and mocking eyes.

Oh.
That's it!

Li Xiao also said, why did this guy suddenly change his gender?

It's so good, I told myself so many ways, so I was waiting for myself here.

in the live room.

"I'll go, this kid just got slapped in the face, so he dared to come over and mock the anchor!!!"

"This is called a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger."

"But the anchor shouldn't kill cows, right?"

"Killing cattle and pigs is a test of experience, not just good knife skills."

"This kid is not authentic, actually digging holes for the anchor?"

"Not too stupid, know how to use the aggressive method."

"Don't worry about him, the host. You are the number one scorer now. If we play steadily, we will definitely win. If it's hard to get the first overall score, don't lose points here."

Li Xiao squinted at the other party's provocative smile, with a helpless smile on his face.

Although killing cows and pigs is really easy for him, he has the ability to kill cattle.

Killing pigs and cattle is probably more agile than those butchers who have slaughtered pigs for a lifetime in the slaughterhouse.

He nodded, with a smile on the corner of his mouth:
"Alright, since everyone doesn't choose, I'll choose. After all, killing both pigs and cows will add 10 points."

Without looking back after speaking, he walked towards the place where the pigs and cows were stored.

Hearing Li Xiao's words, Li Bingsheng was a little dazed.

10 points?What 10 points?Isn't it 5 points?and many more.
Let me go, is he trying to kill a pig and a cow?

hiss.
He turned his head to look at Li Xiao's unrestrained back, a little astonished, he didn't know whether it was arrogance or self-confidence.

He has also seen his family slaughter such a large animal. It took a long time, and it was the result of the division of labor and cooperation between several people.

And this round of exams is only 2 hours, the reason why there is such a long time is reserved for candidates to kill cattle and pigs.

However, if no one chooses to kill cattle and pigs within the first 10 minutes, the staff will automatically judge that the candidate will give up this bonus item and do it directly.

The problem is that after so many exams, he has never heard of any candidate who chose both bonus items.

Usually domestic pigs are selected, because some chefs from rural or mountainous areas still have certain skills in killing pigs.

But seriously, most modern cooks use wholesale market meat.

Small poultry and animals such as chickens, ducks and fish may also be bought and raised in the back kitchen to be slaughtered on call.

However, there is really no shop for large animals like pigs and cattle that will buy a live one and go back to slaughter.

Li Bingsheng watched Li Xiao go farther and farther, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

He muttered to himself:

"Is he here for real?? Are you kidding me?"

in the live room.

"No way, no way, is the anchor so high up?"

"Good anchor, can we be steady?"

"My God, isn't it too bloody?"

"I used to live in the mountains. During Chinese New Year, I watched my second uncle kill a pig. It would take an hour for three people to kill a pig. How can the anchor do it alone?"

"The anchor is still too risky."

In the examination room, the staff looked at Li Xiao in astonishment.

He repeated incredulously:
"You mean you want to kill two? A cow? A pig?"

It is not the first time for this staff member to take the exam. He has been assisting the first exam since he graduated at the age of 1.

He is 35 years old this year and has participated in a total of 13 sessions. He has indeed seen candidates who choose to kill pigs or cattle.

But among the 13 sessions, no one will challenge the slaughter of cattle and pigs at the same time.

The staff said bitterly:
"You have to know that killing cows and pigs consumes a lot of physical strength, and there will be a whole day of exams later."

"I suggest that you just choose one, and there is not enough time before you choose to kill both."

"After you kill pigs and cows, you don't have time to kill chickens, ducks and fish."

However, Li Xiao didn't speak, just kept shaking his head. While shaking his head, he took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves by the way.

Seeing his appearance, the staff stopped trying to persuade him.

He hurriedly asked the staff next to him to report to the rostrum, and he took out various tools and hot water.

"Okay, okay, kill as you like, this is a tool, you can also ask for any other needs."

Li Xiao glanced at the tools prepared at the venue.

Electric baton, butcher's knife, butcher's knife, boning knife, iron hook, hammer, shovel, flat head hammer, wooden bench, electric hoist, stainless steel plate, rope, wooden stick
The basic tools needed are all available, and two large buckets of hot water are also prepared, which is completely sufficient.

He took a deep breath, walked to the tools, and began to check them one by one. After all, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.

Even if the tools are not ready, it will be difficult to get things done.

Li Bingsheng stood not far away and watched Li Xiao carefully inspect the tools. He also heard the conversation between Li Xiao and the staff just now.

"Crazy, really crazy, killing a pig and a cow in 2 hours? Still need to reserve time to kill chickens, ducks and fish? Will he be a clone?"

on the rostrum.

Fang Rongsheng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes. At nearly 70 years old, his physical strength was not as good as before, and his spirit also became bad.

It would be impossible for him to concentrate on the venue for a day.

So when he was doing nothing, he would close his eyes and take a good rest, but after hearing what the staff said just now, he immediately opened his eyes.

"You mean that the candidate on the 26th wants to kill a pig and a cow?"

Staff nod affirmatively

"That's right, that's what he said. He's already preparing, you see?"

Fang Rongsheng showed curiosity on his face. He started working as a chef at the age of 16 and has been in the chef industry for almost 50 years this year.

This was the first time he had encountered such an interesting thing. He stood up from the stool while muttering:
"The boys of the Li family don't know whether it's better to say that you are too confident or too conceited? Killing cattle and pigs is not as easy as it seems."

After speaking, he raised his voice and said to the people around him
"Let's go, go and see the excitement."

"walk around"

The others were also very interested and got up one after another.

Li Xiao moved quickly, waiting for someone from the judging panel to go to the cattle killing area.

The high-voltage electric shocker is very simple to use. It takes less than 10 seconds to press the button to stun a pig. The cow is bigger, but it only lasts for 20 seconds before falling down.

With the help of the electric hoist, the fainted cows and pigs were directly hoisted up.

Of course, he had already turned off the portable camera on his head, after all, this scene was too bloody.

If the camera is not turned off, the live broadcast room may really be blocked by Super Tube.

The knives had already been sharpened in advance. Li Xiao raised the knife with his hand, brushed, brushed, and wiped off the necks of the two large animals cleanly.

Crashing blood kept flowing out, and his movements were very skillful, as if he had killed thousands of pigs and cows.

If someone looks closely at the side, he will find that he only made two knives just now, but in fact he made a total of six knives.

Three cuts were used on each animal to cut their veins, arteries and trachea respectively.

Cutting the trachea can quickly reduce the pressure in their body and speed up the blood flow.

Cutting the artery first allows the artery to bleed profusely, and then cutting the vein empties as much of the blood vessel in the vein as possible through external pressure.

The reason why he doesn't cut it across the board is that if it cuts it across the board, the blood in the veins and arteries will spurt randomly.

If the blood is not drained, the meat will become very fishy, ​​which will greatly reduce the quality of the meat.

Seeing Li Xiao wiping his neck neatly, neither the staff nor Li Bingsheng were too surprised.

Because they didn't see the ingenuity of Li Xiao's two knives just now, besides wiping his neck, any chef can do it.

Killing large animals is only the first step, and the second step is how to decompose these large animals.

And the second step is what the association really wants to test.

Before the blood was drained, the jury came to the scene.

Seeing that it was really Li Xiao who killed the pig, Cai Rongsheng had envy on his face.

At the very beginning, he thought that Li Xiao was from the Li family in Guangdong, and this misunderstanding has continued to this day.

So even if he heard that someone from the Li family came to take the exam, he only thought that the person who took the exam was Li Xiao.

Pigs are smaller, so their blood is drained first.

Li Xiao was not in a hurry to put the pig down, but kept rubbing the pig's body with both hands, as if giving the last spa to the pig that had lost its life.

No one around knew what he was doing, one by one began to whisper.

Only Cai Rongsheng began to frown slowly, such a movement seemed to have appeared in his memory before.

But his memory is so bad that he can't remember where he saw it.

But he didn't need to remember, because after Li Xiao rubbed for tens of seconds, the pig that seemed to have bled dry began to bleed slowly again.

At this moment, everyone suddenly realized, one by one, what was the purpose of Li Xiao's strange behavior just now.

"I go."

"This is to drain the remaining blood"

“Unbelievable, really incredible”

"It's interesting, it's interesting, it's really interesting."

"No wonder he dared to say that he killed a pig and a cow within two hours. It turns out that he has real kung fu."
