Chapter 339: Teaching Malatang

Chen Feng was stunned by the refreshing aroma coming from the pot.

He stared at Chen Qingqing in a daze. Is this the little sister he had watched grow up?

How come you are so powerful?

He actually knew so many things that he had never seen before.

Seeing Chen Feng in a daze, Chen Qingqing hurriedly asked, "Brother, have you learned it? If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

Chen Feng nodded repeatedly, "I got it. This tastes really good. Our Ruyi Tower will definitely be a big hit."

"That's for sure. By the way, are the radishes and chicken feet I asked you to prepare ready?"

"It's been cut and the chicken feet have been cleaned." Chen Feng hurriedly brought the things over.

Chen Qingqing took the chicken feet and radish, and patiently taught him how to make pickled pepper radish and pickled pepper chicken feet.

Fortunately, both of these are not difficult. Chen Feng grasped the key points after she only said it once.

The two worked until the early hours of the morning and finally prepared the base ingredients. Chen Feng also learned most of the recipe, and then they went back to their rooms to rest.

On the second day, Ruyilou launched spicy hotpot and other dishes, and it became an instant hit.

As its reputation grew, a large number of diners from several surrounding towns and Anyang County came to visit.

From morning till night, there is a constant stream of traffic and people in front of Ruyi Tower.

The restaurant was bustling with people, all seats were occupied, and laughter was heard everywhere.

The moon shines over the nine provinces, some are happy while others are sad.

Ruyilou's business was booming, but Qingfeng Restaurant across the street was experiencing a sharp decline.

There are only a few diners in the store every day, and it is difficult to make money even for the minimum labor costs.

Wu Shiren looked at the business across the street that was booming, and he couldn't help but feel jealous and hateful, and cursed in anger.

"These shameless people actually came up with something called hot and sour noodles and spicy hot pot. Even something that is not presentable has people supporting it. I really don't know if those people are stupid. How can that stuff be damn delicious?"

Zhao Tian sighed, "Boss, don't underestimate that snack. I heard it's bright red and fragrant. You don't even need to taste it. Just smelling it is enough to make your mouth water."

Wang Qi also echoed, "I've heard that Ruyilou also launched a spicy hot pot. Their signature dishes are pickled pepper radish and pickled pepper chicken feet. They are said to be very popular."

Wu Shiren glared at the two of them impatiently, "Alright, you're just trying to boost others' morale and destroy your own prestige. If they can make hot and sour noodles and spicy hot pot, we can do it too.

Hurry up and get ready. Tomorrow our store will also launch our exclusive secret spicy and sour noodles and spicy hot pot. I don’t believe we can’t beat those bastards.”

"Boss, it's not that we don't want to do it, the key is that we don't know what it's made of, so we have no idea where to start!"

"That's easy. As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and your enemy, and you'll win every battle.' Send an unfamiliar waiter across the street to buy a bowl for each side, and then we can all try it."

"Yes, yes, yes, how could I forget about this." Zhao Tian hurriedly called a shop assistant to go across the street to buy a bowl of hot and sour noodles.

The shop assistant came back quickly and said, "Boss, I bought the hot and sour noodles, but you have to go to Ruyi Tower to eat the spicy hot pot. As for the pickled pepper radish and chicken feet, they are not ready yet."

"It's okay, let's try this hot and sour noodles first." Wu Shiren said as he took the first bite.

Soon after, Wang Qi, Zhao Tian and others also tasted it.

After tasting it, no one said anything, but they kept praising it in their hearts, saying it was sour and spicy, delicious, flavorful and satisfying!

But Wu Shiren pretended to be disgusted and sneered, "What's the point of cooking vermicelli with this motherfucker? It's sour and spicy, there's really no skill involved."

"The shopkeeper is right. It tastes sour and spicy on the lips. This thing is not very good." Zhao Tian curled his lips and agreed reluctantly.

Wang Qi and Li Liu also followed suit,

"Isn't this just vermicelli mixed with vinegar and chili oil?"

"Exactly. It tastes greasy and spicy, not refreshing at all. I wonder if these people like to eat this."

Wu Shiren felt something was wrong with what he said and raised his hand to stop him. "Alright, let's not talk about whether this thing tastes good or not. I just want to ask you one question: can you make something similar?"

"Don't worry, boss. This thing is spicy and sour. Even a fool can make it. I guarantee it will be spicier and sourer than theirs."

"Yes, boss, didn't you just say that this snack doesn't require any technical skills. For us, it's just a piece of cake."

"That's right, don't those people just like that sour, spicy and refreshing feeling? Let's launch a spicy and sour noodle that's so sour, spicy and refreshing."

Several of them put on an expression of confidence.

Wu Shiren nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, then hurry up and prepare. We'll also launch special snacks tomorrow morning."

The next morning, Qingshui Restaurant also set up a stove at the door and grandly launched its special snack - spicy and sour noodles.

Wu Shiren shouted to the crowd gathered around, "Everyone, come and take a look! My shop has launched a delicious snack called spicy and sour noodles. The taste is amazing. Don't miss it if you pass by. Everyone, come and try it!"

The onlookers were talking about it.

"What is spicy and sour noodles?"

"Yeah, it smells different from the hot and sour noodles across the street."

"Yes, there's a fresh and fragrant aroma over there, and the sour and spicy taste over here seems to be stronger. I wonder how it tastes?"

"Forget it, I think the food at Ruyilou across the street is pretty good, let's go there to eat!"

"Yes, yes, yes. If it doesn't taste good, it will be a waste of money."

Seeing the crowd about to leave, Wu Shiren stepped forward to stop them, "Don't go, this is our exclusive secret snack, one bite will make you want to eat it, you won't be able to stop, hurry up and try it!"

"Is it really as delicious as you say?"

"Yeah, is it possible that it tastes a hundred times better than the hot and sour noodles across the street?"

The onlookers were a little moved.

Wu Shiren shook his head and smiled, "Of course, the taste is absolutely authentic. If it's not delicious, then why not give it away?"

"Okay, give me a bowl to try first." Finally, someone couldn't help but want to try it.

As soon as he put it in his mouth, the man burst into tears and jumped up from his seat. "Oh my god, what is this? It's too disgusting."

Wu Shiren was frightened by his behavior. "You are sick! You are so jumpy."

"What the hell are these? You're saying it's soul-destroying, but it's killing me. Are you trying to kill me with this spicy food?"

Everyone grinned at the sight.

"Oh, thank goodness I didn't try it. Looking at the way he was doing, it must be more uncomfortable than eating shit!"

"Yeah, let's not join in the fun here, let's go eat across the street!"

"Yes, let's go. What the hell is this? It's so spicy it almost killed me."
