Xiao Si was walking out with a plate of spicy skewers when he almost collided with Wei’s boss, scaring him into raising the plate.
He was about to reprimand him, but when he saw it was Wei, he swallowed his words.
“Mr. Wei, what brings you here?”
The shopkeeper didn’t answer, but pulled away from him and went into the kitchen. He saw Song Wangyue standing by the pot, putting something into the pot.
“Miss Song.”
Boss Wei took three or two steps over, and only then did he get a good look. This was the first time he had seen this kind of practice.
“What is this?”
“Spicy skewers.”
Shopkeeper Wei held out his hand and went for it.
“Careful it’s hot, I’ll get it for you.”
Song Wangyue chucked the cooked two skewers onto the plate, and Boss Wei had just taken a bite when Gu Yi came in from outside.
“Young master.”
Boss Wei greeted hurriedly.
He finished the two skewers in a few bites.
He took a new pair of chopsticks from the chopstick cage on the side and chucked up a few skewers each of the spicy and bone broth ones, quickly finishing them and looking excitedly at Gu Yi, “Young master, this, this can be sold in our restaurant.”
“No.” Song Wangyue objected.
In addition to the chef’s skill, the decoration was also a good aspect of Yue Hak Lai Restaurant being the number one restaurant in the county.
Spicy skewers were just a small food, and if they were sold in a restaurant, it would bring down the restaurant’s class. More importantly, spicy hotpot is actually very simple to make, and as long as one is willing, the chefs of other restaurants will soon learn.
“Why not? This is fresh food, as long as we can sell it in the restaurant, our restaurant will make another big profit.”
In the past, even when business was bad, Mr Wei would not be so anxious, after all, everyone’s business was the same in the off-season. But since the herbal tea had brought the shop’s business to a higher level, he was no longer satisfied with the current income.
“When the little girl says no, it means no.”
Gu Yi unconditionally sided with Song Wan Yue.
Shopkeeper Wei was anxious, “I’ll go and speak to the master.”
After saying this, he hurriedly headed out.
Gu Yi didn’t bother to pay attention to her and took Song Wan Yue’s hand and headed out, “Don’t be busy, let Xiao Si do it, let’s go and eat.”
In the dining room, Wei’s boss eagerly explained his intention to sell the spicy skewers in the restaurant, “Master, although it is the peak season, the number of people in the restaurant will increase, but according to the experience of previous years, it will be double, if we have these spicy skewers, I guarantee that it will be twice to three times more.”
Master Gu pondered the possibilities of what he said.
Gu Yi accompanied Song Wan Yue in, “The little girl said no.”
“Then we’ll listen to Little Girl Yue.”
Wei the shopkeeper was in a hurry, “Master ……”
Master Gu waved his hand.
Song Wangyue was not a stingy girl, she must have her reasons for saying so.
Shopkeeper Wei looked pleadingly at Song Wangyue, “Miss Song ……”
“Instead, there is another kind of food that can be sold in the restaurant.”
“What is it?”
“Hot pot.”
“Fire …….”
Wei’s boss almost thought she was joking —- How do you eat a pot? Or with fire.
“I’ll have Gu Yi draw a charcoal pot for you later, you go back to the county and have someone build it, and I’ll boil the base out in the next two days.”
“Xiao Si!”
Boss Wei was just about to ask exactly what kind of food the hotpot was, when a startling shout came from Yao Dafu from the courtyard.
Xiao Si was adding wood to the stove when he heard the yell and his hand shuddered, almost burning. He was so busy that he forgot to go and call out to Dr. Yao in advance.
Dr. Yao entered the kitchen with flying steps.
Xiao Si was so frightened that he got up in a panic, “Doctor Yao, listen to me, I ……”
“How can you eat this?”
Xiao Si, ？？？？？
“What are you staring at? Hurry up and get me some.”
Xiao Si hurriedly took chopsticks and put some on the plate and handed it to him.
Dr. Yao didn’t go out either, he just found a small bench and sat down to eat.
That old man was a capable eater, so Boss Wei didn’t ask, and after hurriedly saluting Master Gu, he walked out of the dining hall and rushed into the kitchen room.
When he saw that Dr. Yao was eating sweetly, he nonchalantly rolled up his sleeves, took his chopsticks and swished them out of the pot himself.
As soon as he entered, Dafu Yao saw him, but he was too busy eating to pay any attention to him.
Now when he saw how shameless he was, he had already plucked half a plate and still didn’t stop, so he stood up, put down the plate and grabbed a basin at hand. A pair of chopsticks was even more accurate than a pair of acupuncture points, picking up several of them in one go.
Xiao Si took a step back, so that he wouldn’t be affected.
“Old Yao, you’re too shameless, Master and the others haven’t had enough yet, and you’re fishing with a basin?”
As he saw more and more spicy skewers in his basin, Boss Wei mocked him.
Dr. Yao just ignored him as if a fly was buzzing in his ear. If he wanted to be shameless, he should have taken a few skewers and sat down to eat them slowly, just like himself. He’s the one who’s shameless!
“Hey, hey, hey, you, you, you ……”
Seeing that the last skewer in the spicy pot was also chucked away by Yao Dafu, Wei’s boss was anxious, he liked spicy food very much.
Yao Daifu smugly ended the pot, “I’m doing it for your own good, too much chili is on fire. What I have is medicine to remove the fire, you don’t have any, you’ll live in the thatch if you eat too much.”
Wei pal, ……
So want to spit on his face, have medicine great, he can go back and buy it too!
But he didn’t dare, he hadn’t forgotten that many years ago he had accidentally offended Old Yao and was drugged by this old man and almost lived in the toilet.
Yao Daifu was full of smugness as he carried the basin over and sat down, picked up a skewer, and ate it leisurely.
The shopkeeper resisted the urge to snap the spicy skewer in his hand on his head, and also found a small bench to sit on, glaring at him with hatred as he ate.
Only when he saw that the two of them had stopped did Xiao Si dare to return to the stove and put all the remaining spicy skewers into the pot, secretly rejoicing that he had just eaten quite a lot while he was burning the fire, otherwise he would have been starving at lunchtime today.
……
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
Mrs. Gu was willing to do so, as her two daughters were both married far away and would not be able to return several times a year, so it would be nice to stay longer.
Gu Yi drew a picture of the hotpot according to Song Wan Yue’s description and handed it over to the shopkeeper Wei, “Make a few more.”
When he reached the courtyard, he saw Dr. Yao, who was on his way back with his stomach in his hands, and raised the drawing in his face, “Miss Song has come up with something better than this, and I can sell it in the restaurant. ”
Yao Daifu, ……
