Chapter 176 The Countdown Begins

Xu Xia's voice was neither urgent nor slow, neither humble nor overbearing, but it was questioning.

I have to say that what Boss Zhu said just now is indeed too one-sided and arbitrary, and it is not what a person of his status should say.

Boss Zhu's face was a little embarrassed, he was actually generalized by Xu Xia, he snorted coldly:

"What a sharp-mouthed kid, I hope your craftsmanship is as sharp as your mouth! Stop talking nonsense and start your 5-minute countdown!"

Xu Xia shrugged, picked up a carving knife that was still in hand, twirled it a few times in his hand, and then clicked the timer on the stopwatch on the phone.

But Xu Xia did not start to cut in a hurry. Instead, she stood motionless on a pile of fruits and vegetables, and even closed her eyes.

When Boss Zhu saw this, the sneer in his heart was even worse. He secretly despised it and put on a show. He probably knew that it would be impossible to complete it in 5 minutes, so he pretended to be profound. That's great. We'll see what excuses you can find later!

Moreover, it only takes 5 minutes, even if he is a layman, even if Xu Xia is a peerless genius, he does not believe that Xu Xia can really carve and draw the lifelike vegetable carvings on the dining table in such a short period of time.

Thirty seconds passed quickly, when everyone was frowning, not knowing what kind of plane Xu Xia wanted to build.

Xu Xia's figure suddenly moved, his wrist shook slightly, and the carving knife in his hand was thrown onto the cutting board, and then he picked up a kitchen knife again, turned it over beautifully in his hand, and cut it neatly from the vegetable and fruit shelf. Cut off half of the pumpkin.

The pumpkin is golden in color, which is consistent with the color of the golden dragon in the mind of the Shenzhou people of the Celestial Dynasty.

Next, you only need to carve this large piece of pumpkin into a dragon!
The skin and inner flesh of the pumpkin were cleaned up in less than 20 seconds, leaving a plate of golden pumpkin meat on the cutting board smoothly.

Then Xu Xia used the kitchen knife to change the knife again, and there was a piece of square pumpkin flesh that was two palms long in the middle of the cutting board.

Putting the kitchen knife aside, he picked up the carving knife inserted on the chopping board again, and started the formal carving.

At this time, one and a half minutes had passed, which meant that Xu Xia needed to carve out a complete and lifelike dragon in three and a half minutes.

If it were someone else, even if it was Shenzhou's top carving master, it would be impossible to do it, the time is too short.

Boss Zhu looked at this scene, not to mention how happy he was, pretending to be struck by lightning, boy, after three and a half minutes, let's see how hard your mouth is still!

Boss Zhu sneered and said:
"Look, these are the young people today. Hey! They may have a little ability, but if they insist on saying that they have a hundred abilities, isn't it because they have no points at all?

I take it as a good person and good deed, to be a stumbling block on the young man's growth path, and to help him grow. "

"Old Zhu, congratulations, congratulations, you can earn 100 million extra money after eating a meal. It seems that Hongcheng County is a good place, and today is a good start."

"Old Zhu, I made a fortune for nothing, although it's not a lot, when I get back to Rongdu, don't forget to treat me."

"It's a pity. I should have bought a horse just now. It was a celebration. The money from the demolished households represents good luck."

Two or three people laughed and joked, Xu Xia's actions just now made them uncomfortable, and they were not optimistic about Xu Xia.

In other words, I have a bad impression of Xu Xia. It's obviously a big deal, so I just call the real vegetable carving master. Hello, me, everyone, I have to cause trouble.

Li Mingxiang glanced at the people who were talking, and shook his head inwardly. There seemed to be a hint of teasing in his eyes. The remaining three minutes or so was enough for Xu Xia!
After all, Xu Xia only spent 8 or [-] minutes on those vegetable carvings on the table.

Counting one vegetable carving alone, it only takes about two to three minutes.

However, it took Xu Xia 5 minutes to carve the Panlong this time, which shows that he is already very serious. After the carving is complete, I hope these people's eyeballs will not stare at the ground.

Ignorance is not terrible. It is terrible to be ignorant, but still think that you are right. In the face of the truth, it will appear extremely ridiculous.

"Lao Li, why aren't you worried at all?"

Zhou He from the Investment Promotion Office leaned towards Li Mingxiang, frowned, with a hint of reproach in his tone, and said:
"Old Li, you and I have known each other for a long time, and you should also know what these giant merchants from Rongdu represent to our Hongcheng County.

How could I be so careless today and end up with a stupefied head?

Look, not only offended people, but also paid 100 million yuan for no reason. You said that it would be good to use this money to even open a shop in the county, and it could bring about employment problems for several people. "

Li Mingxiang looked at Zhou He, and said seriously:

"Lao Zhou, you should know who I am, do you think I seem to have come out of nowhere?

Everything Xiao Xu said is the truth, but the Rongs you brought are all wealthy businessmen, and no one believes them. What can I do?
We can't let them destroy my sign. You heard just now that Boss Zhu wants to open a five-star hotel in our county to steal business from me.

You say it's all like this, can I still swallow my anger?It’s not easy to maintain the smile you have now. It’s obvious that you are just too busy looking for trouble!

It's not bad for Xiao Xu to give them a good slap in the face, at least let them realize that being rich doesn't mean everything!Respect is mutual! "

After Zhou He listened to this speech, the amount of information was a bit too much, so he fell silent.

First of all, Li Mingxiang has great confidence in the vegetable carving master Xu Xia, which means that with such a short time left, he can really carve a vegetable carving work that is not inferior to the quality on the table.

Secondly, Li Mingxiang’s words are also very reasonable, and they respect each other. Although Hongcheng County is seeking investment from these giant businessmen in Rongdu, we should not get too used to it, otherwise when the time comes to settle in Hongcheng County, Who knows how much trouble it will cause.

2 minutes passed again.

But at this time, Boss Zhu and the others quietly changed their mocking and disdainful expressions, and stared fixedly at the pumpkin on the chopping board.

No, the word "block" should no longer be used to describe it, because the shape of the pumpkin has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the outline and some details of the "coiling dragon" have emerged.

Coupled with Xu Xia's lightning-fast knife skills, it was like a phantom dancing in his eyes, which he couldn't catch at all, just like the short video had been fast-forwarded several times.

"This, how is this possible!"

As time passed by, the outline of the Panlong was fully revealed, and the details were revealed bit by bit. Even if it was not fully formed, it seemed that an ancient Panlong that was about to fly into the sky had already been seen.
