Back in the kitchen, the extra pomegranate soup had been divided among everyone.

Mu Fei kindly left half a bowl for Su Zifang: "Brother Fang, this pomegranate soup is delicious. Do you want to consider making it a fixed dish?"

"Before Su Zifang opened his mouth, I heard a gasp of cold air from the other side of the water platform, please don't!"

"Leave some room for survival, boss!"

After saying this, Su Zifang immediately understood why the people on the water table and chopping board were complaining.

After all, this dish requires you to really grind the shape manually.

It's okay if the quantity is good, but when the quantity is too high, it's terrible.

If the price is less, it is not worth it at all, but if the price is too much...

There is nothing very unique about this dish, it is just a clever idea. If diners can only order it once to taste it, it is estimated that not many people will order it a second time.

If we talk about the taste, Suzifang can definitely make Osmanthus Glutinous Rice and Lotus Root with similar taste. If we talk about the shape...

Spending so much time cooking such a dish is actually not worth it.

After all, Ni Zan can have a maid to cook, and he only needs to consider whether it is delicious or not. Now that he is running a restaurant, he cannot ignore costs and pricing. Killing himself to death is not the result Su Zifang wants.

Just as he was about to discuss the feasibility of this dish, he suddenly remembered the business of his return and quickly asked Yang Qiong to take out the photo of Wu Xia just now and show it to everyone.

"This painting is good!"

"Yeah, it looks great in style, but it's useless if you can't eat it!"

"Boss Su, is this new porcelain? It looks very good, why don't you buy some?"

Su Zifang was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to explain it, so he directly asked Yang Qiong to solve the problem.

Yang Qiong told several people what Wu Xia had told her.

Everyone was a little surprised when they looked at the photos. These things are actually edible paintings!

Su Zifang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone's behavior was the same as before. It turned out that he was not the only one who was ignorant.

At this time, Xue Yi also knew the news and rushed over. After seeing the photo, he thought for a few seconds: "I remembered, I know this person!"

At this time, everyone looked at Xue Yi again, wondering how they knew this chef given his status.

Xue Yi didn't hide anything, he told all these past events.

It turned out that Wu Xia's husband had asked someone to find Xue Yi when he opened a restaurant, and wanted to run the restaurant with Xue Yi. However, Xue Yi had not met the chef at that time, only the partner.

I felt it was too impetuous and not a business person, so I didn't agree.

"Of course, another reason is that the salary he gave is too small. If it was more than hundreds of thousands, I would agree."

As Su Zifang listened to the words, a classic quote flashed in his mind.

"There is no absolute loyalty, but the price given is not enough."

If you can't get enough of five buckets of rice, try five thousand buckets of rice.

Even a top Huaiyang cuisine chef like Xue Yi refuses because of insufficient salary, which shows that if you have money, you can really do whatever you want.

After thinking for a few seconds, Xue Yi continued to speak.

"Actually, I thought their idea was pretty good at the time, and I asked about joint development of the idea, but they said they had applied for a patent and were unwilling to engage in any other form of cooperation."

"Oh... Mainly teaching innovative dishes. It seems that the fee for an apprentice is about 20,000 yuan per year, and the apprenticeship lasts three years."

Xue Yi explained a few more words, and the others instantly understood what the restaurant was like.

They all lamented that the partners have really good minds!

First, she partnered with Wu Xia's husband to master the technique of mixing colors with ingredients and painting, and then asked him to teach several apprentices in the name of opening a branch.

The rent of the branch can be obtained through a loan first, and then the legal person of the store can be transferred to Wu Xia's husband.

If you take an apprentice who has learned the skills to open a similar store, you can avoid high hiring fees, and you can also use the banner of other chefs to take advantage of the tiger's skin.

Make sure you make money without losing money, you are a genius in the business world!

Even Yang Qiong showed a bit of amazement. If he put his mind on doing business, not to mention buying Kaifeng dishes, it shouldn't be a problem to tie Burger King.

However, the point of discussion now is not this business logic, but the way to deal with the patent of Huacai.

Yang Qiong raised his eyes and expressed his opinion.

"I think this technology can greatly improve the appearance of dishes after purchasing it. But in terms of taste, I disagree."

"If you have spare money to lay out, then there is no problem. But if you need to invest a lot of money, I think you still need to think carefully."

Chen Guiqi said with a smile: "I don't have any opinion whether to buy it or not. I listen to Boss Su and Chef Xue on this matter. People like me can't learn skills if you buy them, but you young people can take the opportunity to learn more."

Ma Jiang shook his head lightly: "It's too fancy, I'm not interested."

Mu Fei was different, he looked very interested: "If you can buy it, I have some other ideas here!"

Su Zifang glanced at Mu Fei and knew what other ideas he was talking about.

When he was in Shanghai, he also saw with his own eyes the flower arrangements made by Mu Fei's uncle Mu Xiangjun. They were so splendid and beautiful that they were so beautiful.

If you can learn this technique, I'm afraid it will be even more powerful, and it will really have the effect of splendid rivers and mountains.

It is still a landscape and freehand style, perhaps comparable to Qin Changan's works.

After some discussion, Chen Chuyi and Su Lianzheng were included in the kitchen, and the votes turned out to be equal. Everyone looked at Su Zifang.

This crucial vote is in his hands.

Su Zifang hesitated for a few seconds and looked at Xue Yi: "Master, is this really useful?"

Xue Yi didn't answer immediately when he heard the question. Instead, he looked at him and said softly: "That depends on what use you want it for."

"As Xiao Yang said, if it is to improve the taste of dishes, this technology is useless and even seems a bit flashy."

"But if it is to improve everyone's level and the overall quality of the dishes, then this technology is particularly useful."

"It would be more useful if you could innovate new dishes based on this technology."

"It's hard to say anything else. At least the Red Mansion Banquet can reach the top of China's top banquets because of this technology. It is a truly top-level banquet that can directly go to the state banquet."

After saying these words, Su Zifang immediately understood, his eyes became firm, and he looked at Yang Qiong and nodded heavily.

"Bought it!"

"However, the price needs to be renegotiated. This price is too high, and there is no mature menu system to support it. It is just a showpiece, and it is impossible to give a high price."

Upon hearing this, Yang Qiong naturally agreed and patted her chest: "Put it on me!"

When everyone saw that the discussion on this matter was over, they all went about their own business, as if the vote just now was a small episode.

Only Su Zifang and Chen Chuyi looked at each other, silently sighing in their hearts that this innovation is really expensive!
