Chapter 139 Gossip
Chef Zhang from Huajian Restaurant, who was also participating in the competition, was packing up his things and was a little surprised to hear the news.
"Where does this news come from?" he asked in a low voice, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
Hearing this, the waiter standing by showed a hint of smile in his eyes and spoke in a soft tone with a hint of helplessness.
"I got this information from someone on the inside. Do you want to try their food and see how it tastes?"
After all, the competition among them is very fierce, and many people like the dishes cooked by San Ya.
Hearing this, Chef Zhang's eyes showed a hint of sarcasm. He narrowed his eyes slightly and made a sarcastic remark.
"How delicious can it be?" He continued to cook the dish at hand with a nonchalant look.
When the waiter heard this, a hint of helplessness appeared in his eyes. He sighed softly and couldn't help but say something.
"That's not necessarily true. The food they cook is indeed delicious. Many people like it, especially old customers. They all praise it."
He had never been there, but he was a little curious about how delicious the food had to be.
Upon hearing this, Chef Zhang's eyes showed a hint of dissatisfaction and he directly spoke back.
"Stop saying that other people's cooking is delicious. You've eaten a lot of my cooking too. Don't say that here!" He pushed the waiter with some disgust.
At this time, there was a noise at the door, and Chen Laoliu came in staggeringly with something in his hand, with a smile on his face.
"Just in time, come and sit down. I bought some food. See how it tastes."
He placed it directly on the table, took out all the dishes inside, and placed them on the table one by one.
The waiter took a look, a hint of doubt in his eyes, and quickly walked over with a smile on his face.
"Why did you bring us food for no reason?"
Usually they just eat in the store. Anyway, the store has everything and there is no need to worry.
Hearing this, Chen Laoliu's eyes showed a faint smile, and then he spoke.
"This one, I bought specially from Sanya's shop. Try it and see how it tastes."
He had tasted it before he came here, and it tasted really good, and few people could make it taste like this.
When Chef Zhang heard this, he didn't want to eat it at first, but after thinking about it, he took a bite. The taste was indeed good, so he slowly put down his chopsticks.
"It tastes pretty good, but not particularly good either. However, the chances of winning are indeed smaller."
He suddenly lost confidence, as if nothing he did was of any use, and couldn't help but let out a breath.
When Chen Laoliu heard this, he patted him on the shoulder gently, a hint of smile flashed in his words, and he boasted directly.
"You, you just care too much about these things. Don't worry, San Ya will listen to me in everything. I am his uncle, and I will definitely sell you all his secret recipes of ingredients when the time comes."
When the people around heard this, their expressions instantly became very serious, and even Chef Zhang's eyes showed a hint of doubt.
"Are you sure?" He was really confused and a little afraid that if he took the money out, it would be wasted.
Chen Laoliu nodded directly, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction in his words, and he opened his mouth to retort.
"Don't you believe me yet? Of course it's true!" He showed a hint of dissatisfaction in his heart and said it deliberately.
"Besides, you wanted to lose. If you had lost, our business would have gotten worse and worse, and no one would have come to eat here."
When Chef Zhang thought of this, his face became a little stiff. He couldn't help but frown. After thinking for a moment, he let out a breath.
"Then it seems that this is the only way. See if you can buy it. I'm willing to pay any price."
He thought about it and felt that it was impossible for him to ask the entire store to apologize for his own selfish reasons. The moment he thought about this, he felt that it was not a good idea.
Upon hearing this, Chen Laoliu patted his arms confidently, with a hint of smile in his words.
"Don't worry, I'm here to help you get this done. As for the money, I'll help you negotiate it."
After he finished speaking, he sneaked out and walked to the entrance of an alley. A man was standing at the door holding a dogtail grass in his mouth.
"Have you thought it through? If you have, I will give you the secret recipe in ten days." The man said.
When Chen Laoliu heard this, his expression became a little embarrassed. After thinking about it carefully, he finally nodded in agreement.
"I can give you the money, but you must promise to give me the secret recipe."
After all, he has already taken this step. If there is really no reward, he doesn't know who to cry to.
Hearing this, the man nodded directly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and spoke directly.
"If you don't believe me, forget it. There are a lot of people who want to buy this secret recipe from me anyway. If you don't want it, I'll sell it to someone else."
As he spoke, he stood up and was about to walk inside. He moved very quickly and left as soon as he said he would.
Chen Laoliu suddenly became a little flustered. He immediately stepped forward and grabbed his hand. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and then he spoke something.
"No, you have to have this. I am indeed useful." He spoke in a very excited tone.
Hearing this, the man's expression eased slightly. He put the money in his pocket and then spoke a few more words to comfort her.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you with what I promised you. I'll leave first."
After he finished speaking, he went on to cheat another restaurant, and he did this over and over again, and no one discovered his scam.
Chen Laoliu waited and waited but received no news, and he became anxious. He looked at the situation outside and felt more and more uneasy.
He happened to be passing by and saw the man. He went up to him, grabbed him, and spoke directly to him.
"Hurry up and return my money. You liars haven't given me the things by the appointed time!"
When the man heard this, he pretended to be dumb and shook his head as if he knew nothing.
"What do you mean by that? Do I know you?"
