Chapter 129 Business
Seeing the shopkeeper and the waiter bringing a little girl to the kitchen, a fat and very friendly cook came up to them and asked curiously, "Shopkeeper, who is this little girl?"
They don't allow anyone to enter their kitchen without permission. Could it be that the boss hired these people to work here?
"Old Zhang, this is Brother Lin's daughter who often comes to deliver game. Today she brought something new and wants to make a few dishes. Old Zhang, tell Miss Lin the location of the ingredients carefully!"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he turned to Lin Xi and said, "Miss Lin, I will take the other chefs out first and wait at the kitchen door. After Lao Zhang has introduced the location of the ingredients to you, let him come out. When the dish is ready, just call us!"
"Boss, there's no need to be shy. Just watch me make it. Let's try it while it's hot!"
Lin Xi waved his hand nonchalantly, not afraid at all that his cooking skills would be seen by the chef.
"Okay, Miss Lin is generous!"
The shopkeeper smiled appreciatively and asked a few kitchen helpers to help Lin Xi wash vegetables and light the fire.
Lin Xi first made a spicy crab dish. Looking at her skilled movements and superb knife skills, and then smelling the rich aroma in the air, the shopkeeper nodded secretly in admiration.
"This is spicy crab. Shopkeeper and all the chefs, please try it!"
Lin Xi walked up to the shopkeeper with a large plate of spicy crabs and handed him a few pairs of chopsticks.
"Delicious! The spiciness is quite different from the taste of pepper, so appetizing!"
Old Zhang bit the crispy crab shell into pieces and swallowed it, praising it for being delicious. He ate one piece and then picked up another to savor it carefully!
The shopkeeper and several other chefs kept chewing and praising the deliciousness. In a short while, they had divided up the whole plate of spicy crabs!
Lin Xi was halfway done with the second dish at this time. With the help of the kitchen helper, she was very fast. Half a quarter of an hour later, she brought a plate of spicy fried pork intestines and placed it next to the shopkeeper's people.
"It doesn't even have any smell at all, and tastes better than meat. Miss Lin, you are amazing!"
As everyone ate the delicious and spicy pig intestines, their eyes lit up and they all expressed their admiration.
Then Lin Xi made spicy fish, pan-fried fish fillet, Maoxuewang, and boiled pork slices!
After tasting the dishes one by one, everyone was full! The plates were cleaned up, without any leftovers!
The shopkeeper looked at Lin Xi with shining eyes and said, "Miss Lin, can you sell these recipes to me? And these little red fruits, can you only supply them to my Fulin Restaurant? The price is negotiable!"
Lao Zhang and several other chefs looked at Lin Xi expectantly. They were all honest people and had not deliberately observed Lin Xi's cooking methods just now.
"Of course, I was going to do this deal with the shopkeeper. I'll give these recipes to the shopkeeper. Thank you for your help last time. I'll cook these dishes again first. The chefs can watch carefully. If you have any questions, you can ask me! As for the specific cooperation matters, how about we discuss it in detail after I finish cooking the dishes?"
The shopkeeper didn't expect that the last time the county magistrate's nephew robbed Miss Lin of tiger meat, he just helped by saying a few words, and she remembered it in her heart.
He looked at Lin Xi and smiled, "It was just a small favor last time, and I couldn't help Miss Lin. Miss Lin, you don't have to be polite. I must pay for the recipe. Miss, cook first, I'll wait on the side!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi nodded to the shopkeeper, and then led several chefs to cook!
"Ms. Lin, you are such a great cook, it would be a shame if you didn't open a restaurant!"
After learning the steps of cooking, Lao Zhang couldn't help but pick up a few pieces of food with chopsticks. He gave Lin Xi a thumbs up and said it was a pity.
"Master Zhang, thank you for your compliment! The other masters are busy, I'll be leaving first!"
After Lin Xi said goodbye to the chefs with a smile, he went to a private room with the shopkeeper and sat down.
"Miss Lin, I'll give you three hundred taels of silver for these recipes. How about I buy the chili pepper fruit at twenty cents per pound?"
Hearing the price offered by the shopkeeper, Lin Xi nodded with satisfaction.
The two of them agreed on the detailed time and quantity of the delivery, and asked the waiter to bring paper and pen to sign the contract. Then Lin Xi stood up and said goodbye to the shopkeeper.
She was very happy after making a deal. She liked the feeling of making money, it was very novel!
Since you have a second chance to live your life, do whatever you want to do and experience everything you want to do without any regrets!
Lin Xi opened the door of the room with a smile. Just as she was about to go out, she was almost hit head-on by someone. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and dodged to the side!
"Little girl, did you cook that dish in the kitchen just now?"
Lin Xi looked carefully and saw that the person who broke in was a young man dressed in white, wearing a jade crown, and with a very elegant demeanor.
The shopkeeper stepped forward quickly, bowed respectfully to the young man, and then said, "Boss, this is Miss Lin. The dishes just now were made by her. I have already bought these recipes and signed a contract with Miss Lin to supply chili peppers."
After that, he smiled and introduced Lin Xi: "Miss Lin, this is our host!"
Lin Xi raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect that the owner of Fulin Restaurant was so young.
After the young man took the contract and read it, he said to Lin Xi with sparkling eyes: "Miss, you don't have to stick to the quantity of this contract. You can send as many peppers as you want. I have plenty in other restaurants!"
After saying that, he rolled his eyes, looked at Lin Xi with a smile on his face and said, "Little girl, do you want to be my cook? It would be great if you could follow me. I can go anywhere. You just need to cook for me. How about I buy two maids to serve you? Just tell me how much you want for the monthly salary!"
"Haha! Thank you for your appreciation, sir. I want to stay with my family and can't be your cook anymore. But I can supply as much chili as I can! My family is still waiting for me, so I'll take my leave now!"
After Lin Xi finished speaking, he nodded to the shopkeeper and strode away.
The young man in white wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"Hey, Boss, I have parents and a brother, how can I follow you? You should give up this idea!"
"Boss, do you know where this girl lives? She can definitely cook more than just these few dishes. I have to go visit her and try all the dishes she can cook. Otherwise, I will be unworthy of my title of 'foodie'! I opened the restaurant to collect delicacies from all over the world!"
The man in white said, shaking his head.
The shopkeeper looked at his master and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, there must be no one else in the world who could open restaurants all over the world just for food and run them so well!
