Chapter 23
Cooperation
“Coming, coming.” Manager Li jogged over and placed the plate on the table. “Young master Fang, please enjoy.”
The followers who were standing around tried their best to widen their eyes and look at the dish on the table.
They had never seen such a dish before. It looked good and rich, but he didn’t know if it was delicious. However, if it wasn’t delicious, the fragrance was simply too deceiving for him!
Fang Tianliu couldn’t help but pick up a piece with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth. Manager Li, who was standing at the side, also subconsciously stretched out his neck to wait for his reaction. However, he didn’t say anything for a long time, and his chopsticks only dug in for more. In just a few minutes, the dish was finished.
Fang Tianliu wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and his face looked satisfied.
“Manager Li, go and tell those two bumpkins that I want more of this dish. Tell them to send over as much as they have. Money is not an issue.”
There were other guests in the lobby.
Originally, they had the intention to watch the show, but now, one or two of them couldn’t help but gather around. They looked at the dish that Fang Tianfu had cleared out and was very curious.
“Manager Li, is this dish really that delicious?”
“That’s right, that’s right. Manager Li, where are your manners?. Why didn’t you let us try such a good dish?”
“Isn’t that so? Manager Li, why don’t you help us ask if there are any more left? You can’t let us smell it and not let us have a taste. Where is your hospitality?”
“Everyone, let’s not get too ahead of yourself.” Manager Li raised his hand to signal for everyone to lower their voices. “Everyone, please be patient. Let me go to the kitchen and ask.”
Yue Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhan had already finished their meal and were currently sitting in the kitchen, waiting for Manager Li to return.
They said that Manager Li would definitely cooperate with them, and as expected, the other party did as told.
The road was paved, and Yue Jiaojiao was too lazy to move about the rest of the things. She poked Zhao Zhan’s thin waist and asked him to come forward.
“I am Li Shuicheng, the manager of this Rising Cloud Inn. How should I address the both of you respectfully?”
Manager Li’s attitude was very humble.
“Zhao Zhan. What’s the matter?”
Zhao Zhan’s words were concise and comprehensive. He did not know how to mince his words. “If there’s nothing else, my wife and I will pay for the materials and go upstairs to rest.”
“There is something I would like to discuss with about Mister Zhao,” Manager Li’s tone was solemn as he spoke carefully.
“To tell you the truth, Young Master Fang was very satisfied with this stir-fried pork with soybean sprouts dish. Other than him, the other customers in the shop are also very curious about this dish.
“It may sound presumptuous to say this, but are you willing to sell the ingredients and the recipe to my inn? This way, we can have a stable income for our family. What do you think?”
This was Zhao Zhan’s first time discussing business with someone, and his heart was very tense.
This first business deal was of utmost importance to his sweetheart’s future.
He was nervous on the inside, but his expression was unreadable. He only muttered to himself for a moment before throwing the question back. “May I know how you plan to acquire it?”
“I think the two of you have made such a fuss today because you wanted to cooperate with the inn, right?” Manager Li put on the shrewdness of a businessman and said meaningfully, “Young Master Fang’s appearance should be a coincidence that happened by chance, and it better promoted your dish. In my opinion, the yellow bean sprouts you used in your dish shouldn’t be anything particularly valuable, right?”
