"It's so hot, Brother Lin, you must be working hard in the kitchen. I can still eat such delicious meals away from home, thanks to you!"
These words made Lin Jili feel warm in his heart.
Outsiders only see that he has no worries about food and drink as a chef and has a good salary, but they have no idea that cooking on the train is difficult.
Not to mention the swaying, the kitchen space is small and they use open flames, so it's smoky. It's okay in winter, but in summer it's as smoky as a stove.
Even though he knew in his heart that Ning Xi was just deliberately saying nice things, Lin Jili still felt a sense of being recognized.
"Just eat well and be full, is the food tasty?"
"Every one of them is delicious!" Ning Xi praised each dish and added at the end:
"Especially this braised carp. The fish isn't dry at all and is incredibly flavorful. It must have been made by a chef of exceptional skill, right?"
"Hahaha~ Isn't this a coincidence? I'm responsible for making today's carp." Lin Jili now likes Ning Xi from the bottom of his heart.
Not only do you understand his work, but you also recognize his cooking skills.
Ning Xi opened her eyes wide: "What a coincidence!"
In fact, it was not a coincidence at all. She had a keen nose and had already smelled the fishy smell on Chef Lin.
No matter whether he kills the fish or cooks the fish, it is always right to praise the fish.
"Is there anything I can help you with? Tell me what I can do for you."
Generally speaking, when asking someone to do something, the person asking for help must be the first to speak, but Lin Jili was happy and didn't bother to argue.
Ning Xi said a little embarrassedly: "I just want to ask if there is any good way to deal with motion sickness? An auntie who was traveling with me was so carsick and dizzy that she couldn't even eat."
"That's it. Wait, I'll get you something later."
"Chef Lin, someone ordered fish!" Just then the waiter came over and shouted.
Lin Jili stood up and said, "I'll go over first. If you need anything, come to the dining car and find me."
"Okay, Brother Lin, go and get busy." Ning Xi smiled and watched him go back.
After a while, the waiter came over with a net bag, "This is for you, Chef Lin."
Ning Xi took it and looked at it. There were a few green mangoes and green oranges in it, the kind that made her drool (feel sick) at the sight of them.
She took one out and could smell the rich orange scent without peeling it.
Sun Zhigao didn't say much, but he watched everything silently. He didn't expect that this girl was so concerned about Guan Yulan.
"Ding! Found a product for sale. Do you want to put it on the shelf?"
The moment she picked up the bottle of Moutai, she heard the long-lost system prompt.
"No." Ning Xi refused in her heart, without any hesitation in her actions.
It was not until the carriage was completely dark at night that Ning Xi put the Moutai liquor that she had secretly hidden under the quilt into the system.
[Sauce-flavored liquor (unique recipe, mellow taste)*1, suggested retail price: 100 star coins]
Ning Xi's eyes widened under the quilt!
100 Star Coins! That's 100 Star Coins! She can sell it for double the price, right?
That's two nutrient solutions...
She wanted to sell it right away and drink the nutrient solution, but she couldn't say that she drank it all in one night and ate the bottle, right?
You still have to wait and separate from them.
As the train headed north, Uncle Sun whispered some precautions to Ning Xi, such as that someone might come to investigate her sick leave after she returned, so she should be more careful.
Ning Xi got it instantly, it’s just acting, she is familiar with this!
However, Uncle Sun said that Lin Yongjun and He Hongjuan were both seriously injured accidentally, which made her very surprised. According to him, the two of them sent Lin Xiaoyue to the train station, but the station was too crowded and they were pushed down and fell seriously.
I always feel like there's something weird going on.
Could this also be done by Zhao Huaiyan?
It’s hard to say. According to the description in the novel, Zhao Huaiyan finally became very successful in business, but eventually retired due to health reasons.
He remained unmarried and childless throughout his life. He donated part of his property and gave a lot to Lin Zhendong. In the end, there was no news about him at all. It is unknown whether he went abroad or had an accident.
Later, Lin Zhendong asked him for help with something, but he couldn't find anyone after asking around. In the end, it was the clever heroine who helped solve the business crisis, adding more sweetness to their already sweet relationship.
Ning Xi thought that it was unreasonable for someone who could make his business bigger and stronger right after opening up to the outside world to not have some means. Zhao Huaiyan was definitely not as gentle and refined as he appeared.
Such people are too dangerous, so it is best to reduce contact with them once the transaction is completed.
Before arriving at Mingjiang Station, Chef Lin called Ning Xi over and took advantage of his colleagues' break to move the box he had prepared to her.
There were six bottles of Moutai liquor inside, still packaged.
This is the purpose of Ning Xi and Chef Lin’s friendship.
The wine bought in the carriage had only the bottle left after the outer packaging was removed, so it was difficult to determine whether it was real or fake. Now Ning Xi knew it was real, but when she kept it for a few decades and sold it, people might not recognize it.
I heard that there is a big price difference between the one with intact packaging and the one with just the bottle.
But the waiter could only give them the ones in the window, and she was afraid that people would suspect she was speculating if she had to buy food to go after every meal, which is now a crime.
After getting in touch with Chef Lin, he agreed to get her an unopened box.
Ning Xi didn't ask what method he used. After all, he had been working on this car for so many years, and he must know how to find loopholes better than her, a passerby.
As for Moutai, the more the better. Now it has another use besides preserving its value - it can be sold in the system store.
"Brother Lin, thank you. My dad loves Maotai the most. He will definitely be very happy when he goes back this time." Ning Xi silently borrowed Ning Zhibai's name.
