Chapter 49: Starting from the State-Owned Hotel



Secretary Xia Wan remembered Xiangnan. Last time, he brought a young man with this sign to dinner.

This time she brought three people with her. This girl is really rich and she wants to treat us to a meal again.

Nowadays, those who eat at state-owned restaurants are considered rich people. Most people would not go out to eat at restaurants, but would rather go home and cook for themselves.

Xiangnan is good-looking and well-dressed. Whenever she comes in, she always takes a second look at her, thinking she is some rich girl.

Li You and his friends ordered some dishes that they had never eaten before. Xiang Nan told them not to be polite to her, so they really were not polite.

They planned to secretly give the money to Xiangnan after they finished eating.

Xiangnan took out a bottle of braised cold dishes and said to Xia Wanshu, "Can you prepare some ice water for us? It's available for an additional fee."

"We don't have ice water in our hotel, but I secretly chilled some boiled water in the freezer. I'll give it to you." Xia Wanshu whispered to Xiangnan.

"Okay, thank you."

Xia Wanshu brought some ice water and Xiangnan gave her a dollar for the water, which Xia Wanshu happily accepted.

Xiangnan took the opportunity to say, "We made this stewed dish ourselves. Would you like to try it, pretty lady? If you think it's delicious, please help me recommend it to your manager and see if we can sell it in your state-owned restaurant."

"Sure." For the sake of one dollar, she could run with this leg.

Xia Wanshu went into the kitchen with a bottle of braised garlic sprouts.

After a while, a slightly plump middle-aged man followed Xia Wanshu out. Xiangnan quickly put down his chopsticks and stood up.

"Comrade, this is the person in charge of our state-owned restaurant. He is the boss's brother-in-law. You can just call him Uncle Zhang." Xia Wanshu introduced.

"Hello, Uncle Zhang." Xiangnan quickly greeted him with a smile.

Zhang Qiu looked at Xiangnan, then at the three men next to her. None of the four men spoke, but a woman was the one making the decision?

"Who are you selling these garlic sprouts?" Zhang Qiu asked in confusion.

Xiangnan still smiled sweetly: "Uncle Zhang, I made these garlic sprouts, and I'm the one who wants to sell them. You can talk to me."

"Your way of eating garlic shoots is quite novel. You can sell them to me first. How many did you bring and what's the price?" Uncle Zhang asked.

Xiangnan replied with a smile: "We can get as much as you want, and we promise to deliver it to you tomorrow.

We have thirty bottles left today, and we can sell them by the bottle or by the pound at this price.

A bottle is fifty cents, and a pound is one dollar."

Uncle Zhang frowned. "One dollar a pound? Garlic sprouts are only a few cents a pound at the market."

Xiangnan replied amiably, "Uncle Zhang, you don't know that the brine for the braised garlic shoots is the most important ingredient.

It requires oil, garlic, salt, sugar, star anise, cinnamon, oyster sauce, five-spice powder, pepper, and chili peppers, all of which cost a lot of money.

Uncle Zhang nodded after hearing this and said, "Okay, let's go with this price, but there's one thing: if you sell it to us, you can't sell it to other restaurants."

Xiangnan smiled and said, “Uncle Zhang, as long as you have a large supply here, I won’t have time to make so many to supply other places.

This thing is delicious, but it won't last long in the summer. It will go bad if it's not refrigerated overnight, so you have to keep it well.

Should I keep all 30 bottles today?"

"Okay, I'll sell it first. You can come back in a couple of days. If it sells well, I'll definitely buy a lot."

Xiangnan quickly asked Huo Yun and the others to take the goods from the basket and pay on the spot, 30 bottles for 15 yuan.

Xiangnan gave two bottles of garlic sprouts and five cakes to Uncle Zhang and Xia Wanshu respectively.
