I don’t know what happened by the lake, but suddenly a group of white birds flew up from the grass by the lake and flew into the sky.
Only then did Li Xiao come back to his senses. He had been in a daze there for a long time.
He quickly turned around and looked at the old man drinking tea quietly, and his nervousness relaxed a little.
He touched his head and said with some embarrassment:
"Sorry, I'm fascinated by it."
While talking, he walked inside.
Zhang Haoquan did not continue drinking tea, got up and walked towards the dining table.
There is no menu here, and the receptionist is preparing to present the menu.
Zhang Haoquan waved his hand and spoke preparedly:
"3 big meat dishes, 3 small meat dishes, 2 vegetarian dishes, and one soup is enough."
"Don't stew the soup, just clear soup. It's going to rain recently, and the rheumatism is coming back again. All the bones in my body are aching."
The young lady seemed to recognize Old Man Zhang, nodded slightly and exited the door.
After the welcoming lady left, Uncle Zhang said proudly:
"Isn't it a good place where the old man brought you?"
Li Xiao nodded
“Really good.”
"It's much better than I expected, but isn't this private kitchen too remote?"
Zhang Haoquan shook his head indifferently:
"At that old guy's level, he doesn't care at all whether this private restaurant makes money or loses money."
"You may not believe it, but we, the people from the Xinhui Chenpi Chamber of Commerce, come here to eat without paying."
"So, do you think he would care if this place is remote or not? Are there many or few guests?"
"How about it? How about stocking up on some tangerine peels and joining our Chamber of Commerce?"
"We Xinhui people are famous for being united!"
.........
"It's better not to use it now, right? The tangerine peel I bought here is not for hoarding, but just to give it to my fans."
"Besides, it wouldn't be appropriate for me, a anchor from Dongguan, to join the Xinhui Chamber of Commerce, right?"
After hearing Li Xiao's excuse, Zhang Haoquan rolled his eyes:
"What's the point? We in the Chamber of Commerce still have friends from the Free Country!"
"As the saying goes, we are all brothers in the world, but you are still a live broadcaster. Why are you so old-fashioned in your thinking?"
!!!
???
Good guy, Li Xiao really didn't have the slightest interest in this new trade association.
However, the other party said so.
He can no longer give in:
"Okay, okay, you can add as much as you want, but I don't have time to participate in any activities."
Zhang Haoquan laughed:
"Okay, I'll go back tonight and help you add the name."
"In the future, if you want to come over for dinner, just say your name."
Suddenly, the old man changed the subject and asked with a smile:
"By the way, will you accept the promotion?"
"Help us promote our Xinhui tangerine peel."
!!!
"We are all so familiar with each other, you will definitely agree!"
hiss!!
Li Xiao took a breath of cold air, good guy, it turned out that he was waiting for him here.
We are all brothers in the world, we can eat for free, we don’t need to participate in activities.
It's all a trap, just to get myself to join this chamber of commerce and then feel embarrassed to refuse.
As expected, he is an old fox, and he does this trick one after another.
It was really hard to guard against, and he just racked his brains to refuse.
There was a knock on the door, and the sweet voice of the young lady came from outside:
"Hello, is it convenient to serve food here?"
"Convenient! No need to ask what's the inconvenience for two men from now on!"
The young lady took the clear soup and walked to the square table for four people.
"Hello, [Barley, Yam, Purple Ginger, Pepper, and Pork Belly Soup]. It is used to dispel cold and eliminate rheumatism. Please use it slowly."
!!!!
The food delivery speed here seems a bit scary?
It had only been five or six minutes since Zhang Haoquan placed the order, and the first one came out?
Although Mr. Zhang did not say what specific dishes he wanted.
But the other party was definitely not the one, so he gave the two of them soup that had been made in advance.
Because this barley, yam, purple ginger and pepper pork belly soup is not Laohuo soup, the color of the soup is not milky white, but slightly clear.
The pork belly and purple ginger were all cut into small pieces of similar size, which looked very ordinary.
Then, an unexpected system prompt made Li Xiao dare not underestimate this mediocre pork belly soup.

!!!
This is actually a four-star restaurant?
Originally, in Li Xiao's opinion, this store might be good, but it would only be a 3-star store at best.
After all, a private kitchen with a semi-public nature will definitely not receive many guests.
This will cause a serious problem. If you do less, your skills will become rusty.
Once your skills become unfamiliar, your cooking skills will naturally decline.
But obviously, the situation here is different from what he thought.
He saw that there were far more customers here than he thought, or perhaps the chef secretly conducted intensive exercises in private.
After the young lady divided the soup between the two of them, she bowed and left the room.
"Pork belly soup with coix, yam, purple ginger, pepper, haha, this girl Xiaoling really has my heart."
"Come and try it. I always like to drink soup. Unfortunately, I have high rheumatism and uric acid. When I drink the soup, I get headaches all over my body."
"But Xiaoling, this Tang, is really angry with me."
"Only with this soup, no matter how much you drink, there will be no problem."
"The barley is gentle to nourish qi, the yam lowers blood pressure, the pepper and purple ginger dispel wind and cold, and the pork tripe nourishes the stomach. It's really good."
I heard Li Xiao explain the functions of all the ingredients in the soup in one breath.
The old man was obviously stunned for a moment, but then he immediately reacted and nodded slightly:
"He is quite capable. Not only does he know tangerine peel so thoroughly, but he also knows other ingredients so well. With this ability, no wonder there are so many viewers in the live broadcast room."
·······
In the live broadcast room.
"Old man, you are so strange!"
"The anchor knows more than you think."
"By the way, when it comes to the anchor's exam, didn't some bosses say there was a shady secret behind the report?"
"Yes, I heard that this is indeed the case. Why don't you just let it go?"
"Hey, is there any way to host an ordinary citizen?"
"It's a pity. I asked around, and with the anchor's ability, it's a four-star rating."
