Chapter 739: Talking Seriously About Business
Seeing that Zhang Juexia was happy, Ye Beixiu naturally became motivated to work. After listening to Chen Xuan's words, he reached out and opened the bag next to him.
The aroma of cumin filled his nose, and Zhang Juexia reached out and grabbed a handful of it with great joy. He looked at Chen Xuan in surprise, "Master Chen, you are really capable, aren't you?
You actually found this spice?"
Chen Xuan raised his head proudly. "What's the big deal? My Chen family's businesses are spread all over the Great Zhou Kingdom. If there's such a thing, I can find it. It's mainly a matter of time. So, Madam Ye, how do you thank me?"
Before Zhang Juexia could answer Chen Xuan, she couldn't wait to ask him, "How many bags of cumin are there?"
"There are several sacks! Oh, Mrs. Ye, you haven't answered me yet?
I helped you so much, you can't just not show any appreciation, right?"
"So what do you want? Let's make it clear in advance that I can't guarantee you'll get married.
Your Chen family is a wealthy family, I can’t help you with this matter.”
Chen Xuan covered his mouth with his hand awkwardly and coughed dryly, "Then when I'm ready to find a wife, Madam Ye can help me with some advice behind the scenes, right?"
"I?"
Zhang Juexia pointed at his nose in disbelief, "Master Chen, you really think too highly of me.
I was just joking. If you can change your temper, it won't be difficult for you to find a wife with your intelligence."
When Chen Xuan heard Zhang Juexia praising him, he immediately smiled, "Madam Ye, am I really that amazing?
That’s great, it’s really great.”
Zhang Juexia shook his head helplessly. The contrast between this person and others was too great.
However, with the addition of chili peppers and cumin, why not consider eating some grilled lamb skewers?
She asked Ye Beixiu, "Can someone send some fresh mutton over?"
Ye Beixiu thought Zhang Juexia was about to eat, so he hurried out and said, "I'll arrange it right away and ask them to go to the shop and get it."
"Wait, I'm not finished yet! I need some more bamboo sticks."
Although Ye Beixiu was puzzled, he still agreed, "I'll have someone help you in a moment."
"That would require a stove and charcoal."
"It's all a small matter."
Chen Xuan listened to the couple singing in unison and seemed to understand something. "Mrs. Ye, you are not going to make some delicious food again, are you?"
Zhang Juexia kept it a secret, "You'll know in a moment."
Ye Beixiu followed Zhang Juexia's instructions and after everything was prepared, he arranged people to cut the meat and skewer the meat. After the fire in the stove was lit, Zhang Juexia directed Ye Beixiu to grill the meat.
Chen Xuan followed suit and picked up a handful of skewers and put them on the fire to roast.
When the meat was almost cooked, Zhang Juexia asked them to sprinkle some salt and a handful of cumin on it, and add some chili powder if they liked spicy food.
Ye Beixiu added some salt and cumin to the roasted lamb skewers he had prepared and placed them in front of Zhang Juexia, asking her to eat first.
"Mm, it's delicious, it's simply a delicacy!"
Before Zhang Juexia could express his admiration, Chen Xuan couldn't wait any longer. He ate while shouting "delicious, delicious."
After everyone had eaten their fill, Zhang Juexia asked Chen Xuan, "Master Chen, am I being considerate enough? How about this thank you gift?"
"Yeah, it's delicious!
Madam Ye, I've made up my mind. I'll bring my parents from Yejia Village tomorrow. For these delicious foods, our whole family will stay here with you for the New Year this year."
Chen Xuan burped and said, "Mrs. Ye, don't worry. Our family of three won't eat your food for free. We still have to pay for the food."
Who would have a grudge against money? Zhang Juexia agreed reluctantly.
"Master Chen, you've already eaten this delicious meal. Don't you have any thoughts at this moment?"
Chen Xuan's mind was full of thoughts about how there could be such delicious food in the world. When Zhang Juexia asked him what he thought, he was stunned.
"What idea?"
"Like exchanging them for silver?"
Chen Xuan bowed to Zhang Juexia in admiration and said, "This idea is indeed feasible. I just wonder, Madam Ye, how much do you want to sell this barbecue recipe?"
When Zhang Juexia heard that Chen Xuan wanted to buy his recipe, the corners of his mouth stretched to the back of his ears, and he kept praising this kid in his heart for being smart.
"Master Chen, we were so busy talking just now that I forgot to ask you, how is your hot pot business?"
"OK!"
"really?"
"This is fake!"
"Then why did you look like you were going to accuse me when you saw me just now? I thought your business was affected."
"No, the Wang family's hot pot shop is not a big deal at all.
Their taste is not as good as ours!
At first, I thought you just gave the Wang family a random hot pot recipe in order to fool them!
I can tell you, the Wang family is truly dishonest. You'd better stay away from them."
Zhang Juexia asked curiously, "Master Chen, let me ask you something. What if I gave the Wang family a fake prescription? What would the consequences be?"
Chen Xuan stared at Zhang Juexia for a while, which made Zhang Juexia feel uneasy. "Is this really what if?"
"Well, you know my temper, I wouldn't dare lie to you about this."
"Well, since you are so curious, I will tell you the answer!
Given that our family has been dealing with the Wang family for many years, the person who sold the fake prescription to the Wang family will definitely not have a good ending.
If it gets serious, you could be dead!"
Zhang Juexia's eyes widened with fear. "You didn't scare me, did you?"
"I'm bored and have nothing to do. Well, you didn't sell them this recipe, so just let them do as they please!
To be honest, I think this person did a great job.
You don’t know that the Wang family also followed my example and opened several shops at once.
When their shop first opened, I was really anxious.
But after I tasted them, I was no longer in a hurry.
Anyway, my business is better than theirs now."
Zhang Juexia felt relieved after hearing what Chen Xuan said. After all, his family's business was doing well, so she would get more money.
Seeing that Zhang Juexia was silent at this critical moment, Chen Xuan deliberately said, "Madam Ye, just tell me the price of this prescription. Although I, Chen Xuan, am young, I have experienced a lot since I was a child.
No amount of silver can scare me."
Zhang Juexia frowned, "Master Chen, we are discussing business, not joking!
Let me ask you, if summer comes, would you still be willing to gather around a hot pot and eat?"
Chen Xuan shook his head. "It's hot in the summer already. If we eat in front of the hot pot, it will be even hotter."
He slammed the table and said, "Mrs. Ye, I understand your painstaking efforts. Can we sell these grilled lamb skewers when the weather gets hotter?"
