Hearing this, the third brother was overjoyed.
Even without asking, one could tell that He Family Restaurant was a big business in the South Island, and he was proud to have the approval of the chefs at He Family Restaurant!
Ruan Meng asked her third brother to go to the donkey cart and take out some spare wild millet peppers.
She had previously sent wild chilies to the city because she was worried that they would taste better than the ones she bought.
If the He Family Restaurant takes a liking to a particular brand, the limited availability of wild millet peppers means they cannot produce them in large quantities themselves, which is why they would use purchased peppers.
But when she was digging for oysters with the Song and Fan families, she had already noticed the difference between the two.
After explaining, Ruan Meng asked Manager Yu for a piece of ice and asked Third Brother to break it with a rolling pin.
There are also mountain springs in the city, but they are located in a rather distant place, requiring a 15-minute ride on horseback or by carriage.
Shopkeeper Yu, seemingly unperturbed, cupped his hands in greeting to Ruan Meng, "The taste just now, young lady, has already captivated everyone's taste buds..."
"But young lady, you've gone to so much trouble to prepare the best flavor for the He Family Restaurant, and I'm deeply moved!"
Immediately dispatch men at full speed to fetch the mountain spring water.
During this period, Ruan Meng asked to cook seafood. They had already seen Ruan Meng's cooking skills, and she handled the seafood with ease.
Ruan Meng scooped out another spoonful of broth, added chopped wild millet peppers, scallions, ginger, and garlic, mixed in ice cubes, and waited for the spring water to return before adding it to the broth to soak the seafood...
Everyone gathered around the table, their eyes glued to it.
Fifteen minutes later, Ruan Meng let everyone taste it again...
A genuine sigh erupted from the kitchen.
"Wow!"
"I never knew seafood could be eaten like this!"
"Me too! This is the first time I've ever known that seafood could taste this good!"
......
Manager Yu smiled and instructed the cooks to prepare small bowls to distribute the remaining seafood in the broth to the other staff in the lobby and the Ruan family.
Manager Yu said with a smile, "Every new dish at He Family Restaurant is tasted by all the staff so that they can describe it when customers ask."
Ruan Meng smiled and nodded. This concept was quite advanced even in her previous life.
Many good restaurants have staff who can't afford the food, and when customers ask them questions, the staff are clueless.
Seeing that Ruan Meng was certain, Manager Yu said a few more words, "This is a business deal that the master made after taking over the business."
"The He Family Restaurant was brought to its current glory under the master's leadership. I'll tell you more about it when I have the chance. Our boss is an exceptionally good person. He has vision, strategy, and treats his employees well."
Ruan Meng smiled and nodded. Manager Yu was a good person; someone who could be praised like that by him must be quite good as well.
Just then, Xiao Kai, the waiter, ran over.
Although he appeared calm, a hint of anxiety was visible between his brows.
As Ruan Mengxin was praising him, she noticed that Xiao Kai glanced at her with concern as he reported the news.
He reported, "Shopkeeper, would you mind going to the main hall to take a look?"
Ruan Meng washed her hands and followed her third brother out.
Upon arriving in the lobby, the third brother felt his blood boil.
Then a man dressed in bright clothes, wearing a hat askew, pointed at Ruan Qian and his companions and the waiters in the lobby and started cursing.
"You bunch of bastards, just because my father died, you think you can be so unruly? Bringing just anyone into the shop?"
"What? Do you think our He Family Restaurant is a charity?"
"A bunch of beggars, how are other customers supposed to get in?"
......
The third brother rushed over and stood in front of his elder brother and sister-in-law.
Ruan Meng wasn't as impulsive as her third brother, but she still rushed over before Manager Yu.
Several tables were overturned, and items were scattered all over the floor.
It seems that it was Xiao Kai who had the supplier deliver what the Ruan family needed.
The man pointed at Ruan Qian's nose and yelled, "Get lost!"
"Get out of here right now! Do you hear me?"
"Don't get the benches at He Family Restaurant dirty!"
......
The men ignored everything and rushed forward to grab the man's hand to stop him from pointing fingers, but he shook them off and kicked them to the ground!
Still feeling unsatisfied, he kicked the waiter several times, cursing, "Dare to stop me? Who do you think you are? Huh? What are you anyway?"
"You've dirtied my hands!"
Ruan Meng's eyes turned slightly cold as Manager Yu rushed over.
He was heavy-hearted and had no intention of standing idly by from the start, but he was not as quick as Ruan Meng.
He stepped forward, skillfully pulled the waiter up, and stood in front of him as a shield.
The man's fist was about to land on his face, but he barely managed to hold back. He glanced at the Ruan family behind him and scolded them:
"Yu Youcai, you've become quite capable? You dare to take in just any beggar without my brother's knowledge?"
"My older brother is busy, and you can easily fool him, but I'm not so easily fooled!"
Yu Youcai didn't reply, but greeted him with a smile, "Second Master, why are you awake so early? Have you eaten? Are you hungry?"
"Shall I have the waiter make your favorite crab buns?"
The Ruan family realized that this man was over fifty years old and was called "Second Master," so he must be the second son of the great-grandfather, as introduced by Manager Yu earlier.
Manager Yu had just introduced the owner, saying he was very good, but clearly, this second master wasn't in charge.
The man seemed to want to establish his authority, or perhaps he had never seen anyone who could withstand his insults without backing down or begging for mercy. Therefore, he deliberately provoked the Ruan family!
"I'm not buying this. Tell them to get lost!"
"Get out!"
