After Deng Chu left Jixiang Xiaozhu, he almost ran all the way back to Piaoxiang Building. He had to run as fast as he could. The bone-deep cold made him dare not stop exercising.
After telling Kong Fan and Kong Hu what happened at Jixiang Xiaozhu, Chef Deng hurried to the kitchen to warm himself by the stove. Only Kong Fan and Kong Hu were left in the room with gloomy faces.
"What a useless guy!"
It was hard to say anything to Chef Deng. Kong Hu immediately cursed after he left.
"You can't blame him for this. He even dared to eat rabbit meat and was willing to risk it. He just kicked a hard target. Moreover, Chef Deng also said that the head chef of Jixiang Xiaozhu came to Piaoxiang House for dinner that day.
That guy seemed weird, and when Chef Deng faced him, he actually felt scared."
Kong Fan was thoughtful. He had also looked at Gu Zheng at Piaoxiang Tower that day, and he also felt that Gu Zheng was a little different.
"Humph, what's weird? He was frightened by someone who gave him a handful of peppercorns and a basin of ice water. He was worried that he would not be able to communicate well when he came back, so he said that."
Kong Hu didn't like to think too much about doing things. He had already forgotten the way Gu Zheng glared at him that day.
Seeing Kong Fan frowning and not speaking, Kong Hu spoke again: "Brother, what are you going to do? Just let Jixiang Xiaozhu grow bigger?"
"Tomorrow I will go out with the city lord. It may take more than ten days to come back. During this time, you should not act rashly to cause trouble for Jixiang Xiaozhu. We will talk about everything after I come back." Kong Fan said.
"Are you going to go for more than ten days this time?" Kong Hu's eyes widened.
"Yes, you just need to stay in Piaoxiang Building." Kong Fan warned.
A lot of things happened in the first day that Jixiang Xiaozhu opened. Now the most talked about new thing in Qingfeng City is Jixiang Xiaozhu.
When Bai Li wanted Gu Zheng to hire Gu Zheng as the head chef, he thought that the business might improve because of Gu Zheng, but he didn't expect it would be so good.
Looking at the diners waiting outside the door of Jixiang Xiaozhu, Bai Li's eyes narrowed with laughter.
"Today is the second day since Jixiang Xiaozhu opened. Most of the diners in Qingfeng City who often go to restaurants to eat are already waiting outside the door."
Standing on the second floor of Jixiang Xiaozhu, looking at the crowds of people downstairs from the window, Huang Ying also looked very excited.
"Auntie, how long do you think such a good business can last?" Bai Li asked thoughtfully.
"How long will it last? It should last a long time! After all, the food made by Chef Ti is so delicious that people can't stop eating it!" Huang Ying said.
"Auntie, are you afraid of such a good business?" Bai Li asked again.
"Of course I will be a little scared. The two Kong brothers will definitely try their best to cause trouble. Didn't Chef Deng already come yesterday?"
Huang Ying shook her head, smiled, and then said, "Nephew, are you scared?"
"Don't be afraid, even if I suffer heavy losses, I still have to vent my anger." Bai Li said.
"I knew you thought so!"
Huang Ying sighed. Bai Li's father valued the former guest house very much. It can be said that it was his hard work. Later, the Kong brothers opened Piaoxiang Tower. At that time, his relatives were not the lords of Qingfeng City, but Qingfeng City.
A captain of the city, with the influence of his relatives, he coerced and lured away the two best chefs from the guest house. Therefore, Piaoxiang House was overcrowded before, and the house was full of diners.
The situation was lacking, and Bai Li's father finally died depressed because of this incident.
The food at Jixiang Xiaozhu is delicious. This is something that people in Qingfeng City already know. At the same time, they also know that Jixiang Xiaozhu has many rules. Therefore, when Jixiang Xiaozhu was about to open, everyone immediately lined up.
The team seemed orderly for a while.
Jixiang Xiaozhu opened the door, and everyone filed in, ordering food lively, and chatting while waiting.
“The plain chicken is here!”
With the sound of the waiter passing the dishes, the people who were chatting couldn't help but become quiet, and their eyes were fixed on the plates in the waiter's hands.
"Sir, your plain chicken!"
The waiter placed the plate in front of one person, then turned around and left, as if he didn't want to say another word to the person.
The person who ordered the plain chicken was a tall, thick-set man with a full beard. He looked quite fierce. Not only did the waiter seem to not want to talk to him, but even the other diners ignored him. If it were normal,
Under such circumstances, someone must come up with the idea of exchanging food at this time, and the reason for this is because this person is a gangster in Qingfeng City, who does not do his job all day long, and specializes in deception and abduction.
The ruffian Wang Er ignored the strange looks from the people around him. He understood that the reason why those people looked at him like this was because they were silently questioning whether he had money. Indeed, he was so addicted to gambling that he really had no money. Today, he
I didn’t plan to pay when I came to Jixiang Xiaozhu to eat.
The golden chicken skin looks like it has been roasted, and it is covered with white and tender chicken. Although no spices are added to it, its smell is so appetizing.
"Gudong!"
Wang Er picked up a piece of chicken and swallowed hard.
"No wonder you rich people like to come to Jixiang Xiaozhu to eat. The food here is really delicious. The rich aroma alone is not comparable to the plain-cut chicken from Piaoxianglou!"
Wang Er shook his head and muttered to himself. He wanted to say something more, but he was at a loss for words. He could only put the chicken in his mouth, closed his eyes and started chewing.
"whispering sound!"
There were boos all around, and Wang Er, who closed his eyes, naturally heard it. With his usual personality, he should be furious! But now, the delicious food in his mouth has distracted him. He just wants to have a good time.
Eat a delicious piece of chicken.
"It smells so good. You don't know how delicious this chicken is!"
After taking a bite of chicken, Wang Er was so excited that he almost cried. In his more than thirty years of life, he had never eaten such delicious chicken.
"Huh, not only do we know how delicious Jixiang Xiaozhu's plain-cut chicken is, we also know that it tastes even better when dipped in sauce!"
The diner who initially showed disdain for Wang Er sneered, and his words also made Wang Er blush. It was not that Wang Er had never eaten plain-cut chicken, but the plain-cut chicken from Jixiang Xiaozhu was so fragrant that he forgot about it.
It tastes better if you eat plain-cut chicken with sauce. Now that someone was making fun of it, Wang Er said fiercely to the man: "I want to taste the original plain-cut chicken, don't you? Can you remind me how to eat plain-cut chicken?"
"
"I don't need to remind you how to eat plain-cut chicken, but I want to remind you to think about Chef Deng from Piaoxiang Restaurant yesterday!"
The diners who were insulted by Wang Er seemed to have seen Wang Er's heart, which made Wang Er feel uncomfortable for a while.
This time when he came to Jixiang Xiaozhu to eat, Wang Er had no intention of paying. Although according to the rules of Jixiang Xiaozhu, the money has already been paid after ordering, but Wang Er wanted to wait until the end to get the money back.
"Shut up, I don't have time to argue with you. If Jixiang Xiaozhu hadn't allowed you to do anything, I would have wanted to use it to speak!"
Wang Er raised his fist at the diners and then began to eat his plain-cut chicken.
Wang Er quickly finished the chicken and paired it with a bowl of rice. Wang Er was very satisfied with the meal.
After the fun was over, Wang Er suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He realized that the plain chicken was so delicious that he had forgotten his original purpose.
Although the boiled chicken has been eaten now, fortunately Jixiang Xiaozhu provided a lot of sauce. Wang Er calmly put a hair into the sauce. The hair that Wang Er put into the sauce
, Wang Er secretly collected it when Huang Ying went shopping for groceries, so he was not afraid of what Jixiang Xiaozhu would say.
"Hey young!"
Wang Er suddenly screamed, and the diners' eyes immediately turned to him.
"whispering sound!"
There were boos immediately. Regarding Wang Er's "Hey, you", all the diners basically knew what was going on. After all, the restaurants in Qingfeng City had basically endured Wang Er's "Hey, you".
'.
The waiter, who didn't want to say anything more to Wang Er, had no choice but to walk over at this time.
"Wang Er, didn't you eat your hair?"
For Wang Er at this time, the waiter no longer had any honorific title in his mouth.
"Yeah, I've always been sharp-eyed!"
While Wang Er was talking, he picked out a hair from the sauce: "Looking at the color and length of the hair, it should belong to your Chef Huang, right?"
"you,"
Just as the waiter was about to say something, he was interrupted by Bai Li who rushed over and stretched out his hand.
"what do you want?"
Bai Li stared at Wang Er.
Wang Er sat on the chair, holding his stomach and said: "It's really unappetizing to eat hair in the food. I don't even ask you to pay for my soup and medicine, so I will refund my meal money."
Just give it to me!"
Although Wang Er often blackmails people, he does not go too far. This is also the key reason why he can survive to this day. After all, people who do business make money by being friendly. As long as it is not particularly excessive, they generally don’t want to be in the same class as him. There was once
This shop was really serious with Wang Er, and Wang Er didn't say much at the time. But when the store opened the next day, he discovered that someone had thrown feces on the door. Not to mention how disgusting it was, and such a thing
It lasted on and off for two months. Although the shopkeeper knew that this was Wang Er's revenge, he couldn't catch his person, so he couldn't be sent to the government. In desperation, the shop finally
The shopkeeper had no choice but to bring snacks and cooked food, visit Wang Er and speak softly to Wang Er, and the matter ended there.
"Wang Er, if this was the old crowded building, I would ignore you today. However, this is a very fragrant little building, and no one is allowed to run wild here. If you are sensible, you will leave here immediately. If
If you don't understand, then it will be too late when you regret it." Bai Li said.
"Mr. Bai, it's not like this, is it? It's just a piece of rice. If you insist on arguing with me, I really lost my hair in this sauce!" Wang Er frowned.
"I'll say it one last time, if you leave now, I can pretend that what happened today never happened!" Bai Li said seriously.
"Peng!"
Wang Eryi slapped the table and stood up. He smiled ferociously at Bai Li: "Okay, if you want to be more serious with me, then I will be more serious with you. Anyway, what I am doing here is affecting your business. Even if you report it,
I’m not afraid of the official, but I want to see who suffers between us!”
No longer looking at Bai Li, Wang Er shouted to all the diners: "Look, everyone, I got hair in this sauce. My stomach is not very comfortable now, and my heart is even more disgusting. I won't do this."
Can you still eat in an unclean restaurant?"
Everyone knew that Wang Er was blackmailing people, but he was indeed quite disgusting. If he was allowed to make such a noise, everyone's interest in tasting delicious food would be ruined.
"Send it directly to the government!"
Bai Li waved his hand, and the clerk who was maintaining order in the store immediately picked up Wang Er.
His feet were lifted off the ground. Wang Er still didn't know what he was afraid of. He laughed loudly and said: "Bai Li, just wait for me. I hope Jixiang Xiaozhu's business will be prosperous tomorrow!"
"Tomorrow? I think your tomorrow will be at least a year later." Bai Li sneered.
"What do you mean?"
Wang Er's eyes widened, and he saw the confidence in Bai Li's sneer.
"In the past, the government didn't punish you because no one wanted to offend you, and no one wanted to be serious with you. But this time you came to Jixiang Xiaozhu to cause trouble. It happened that I was on good terms with the city supervisor. If you don't understand me, I
You can find many people to prove what you have done before, and it will not be as simple as locking you up for a year!"
Bai Li's serious words made Wang Er break into a cold sweat. He didn't expect Bai Li to be friends with the city supervisor.
"Misunderstanding, this matter is a misunderstanding!"
Wang Er smiled apologetically and struggled to get rid of the arms of the two guys.
"Misunderstanding? It's too late! Take him away. This is what will happen if you come to Jixiang Xiaozhu to cause trouble!"
Bai Li waved his hand, and the two waiters quickly dragged Wang Er out of Jixiang Xiaozhu. The diners immediately applauded enthusiastically.
As a scoundrel in Qingfeng City, Wang Er is naturally very annoying. Now that he is going to be imprisoned for a year, it is really satisfying.
Gu Zheng was naturally aware of the trouble caused by the gangster Wang Er, but the matter was within the scope of Bai Li's control, so he did not come forward. Anyway, he still had a lot of dishes to cook.
Unknowingly, seven days have passed. During these seven days, the reputation of Jixiang Xiaozhu has become more and more famous. Everyone who has tasted the delicious food of Jixiang Xiaozhu praises it.
During these seven days, Gu Zheng's cooking skills also improved steadily, and the feeling of wanting to touch the eye of the Tao became much closer. Moreover, through these few days of teaching, some relatively simple dishes, Huang
Ying and others can also cook. Although the taste is definitely not as delicious as what Gu Zheng cooked by himself, it is already a rare delicacy in the eyes of ordinary people. However, Gu Zheng does not intend to let Huang Ying and others cook it for guests.
, it will take at least three days for them to get to this point.
It's another night. Piaoxiang Tower, which used to be full of guests, has become very deserted. Most people would rather wait in line to eat the dishes cooked by Jixiang Xiaozhu than drink comfortably in Piaoxiang Tower. It's even scarier.
What's interesting is that going to Jixiang Xiaozhu to eat seems to have become a trend. Even if they wait outside for a long time, diners will feel proud to enter Jixiang Xiaozhu to eat, which makes Kong Hu very annoyed.
"Why!"
Chef Deng sighed. The busyness in the past has turned into leisure now, which made the chefs feel very uncomfortable.
"Stop sighing, it's annoying to hear you!"
Kong Hu raised his head and drank a glass of wine.
"Boss, are we just going to watch Jixiang Xiaozhu take away our business?"
Chef Deng has also healed a little and the scar has forgotten the pain. His heart is now ready to move again.
Kong Hu said nothing and drank another glass of wine in one gulp.
"Boss, we really need to think of a solution. This won't work if we continue like this." Chef Deng sighed again.
"Okay, the boss must be more annoyed than you, so don't bother him anymore!" Another chef said.
"hateful!"
The more Kong Hu thought about it, the angrier he became. He slammed the cup on the stove, then turned and left the kitchen.
After Kong Hu left, Chef Deng and the chef who just spoke looked at each other and smiled. They knew Kong Hu well. The combination of black face and white face worked very well. Kong Hu was planning to clean up Jixiang Xiaozhu.
Kong Hu was originally anxious for Kong Fan's advice, but just now he felt really angry in the kitchen. After leaving Piaoxiang Building, he went to meet someone.
The man Kong Hu went to see was a martial artist, very agile and reliable.
Kong Hu handed a packet of medicinal powder to the martial artist. He asked the martial artist to pour some of the medicinal powder into the water tank of Jixiang Xiaozhu after nightfall. After this medicinal powder is blended into the water, it is colorless and odorless but can cause diarrhea, even if it makes the doctor
After the examination, the doctor will definitely say that the diet has damaged the body.
If the diners at Jixiang Xiaozhu have collective diarrhea for two days in a row, Kong Hu thinks this will be enough for Jixiang Xiaozhu to drink a pot. Then we will see who dares to eat at Jixiang Xiaozhu.
At night, it's midnight.
The martial artist assigned by Kong Hu came to the outside of Jixiang Xiaozhu quietly like a raccoon cat through the darkness of night.
The door of Jixiang Xiaozhu was easily opened without making any sound. The martial artist tiptoed into Jixiang Xiaozhu and quickly arrived at the kitchen.
After finding the location of the water tank, the martial artist took out the medicinal powder and poured it into the water tank.
"Huh!"
The martial artist made a slight sound. He was curious about the medicine powder he had just pinched in his hand, but now he didn't know where it had gone.
"What are you looking for?"
A male voice suddenly sounded in the darkness, and the martial artist was startled. He quickly looked back and saw a young man standing in front of the eucalyptus board in the kitchen. He was exactly the very fragrant young man described by Kong Hu.
The chef of the building!
"Are you looking for this?"
Gu Zheng raised his hand towards the martial artist, and what was placed in it was the medicine powder originally in the martial artist's hand.
Cold sweat instantly fell from the martial artist's face. He was sure that when he entered the kitchen, there was no second person here.
It's terrifying for a person to appear silently. What's even more terrifying is that he didn't even notice the things stolen from him, which makes the martial artist have to be afraid!
Without any hesitation, the martial artist immediately wanted to escape, but he was only a mortal after all, so how could he escape from an immortal cultivator.
Gu Zheng just waved his hand and the martial artist fainted immediately.
"I wanted to practice my cooking skills quietly, why do you have to force me?"
Gu Zheng sneered and put his hand on the martial artist's head. He wanted to search the martial artist's soul.
