Chapter 57: Upstarts



The two beauties sat down and ordered dishes that they had not eaten in the past few days, and then started chatting again.

"Hey, Miaozi, what do you think your uncle is doing here this time? Is he looking for a good husband for you?" "Feng Chuge! Can you please stop talking nonsense?"

Hearing Feng Chuge's words, Liu Miaozi felt embarrassed and angry, and stared at her best friend with her beautiful eyes wide open.

It's really a headache to have a best friend who talks so much nonsense. She can say anything.

"Oh my! Are you angry out of shame? How is it? Have you seen him? Is he handsome? Is he as handsome as that little brother?"

Seeing Liu Miaozi like this, Feng Chuge laughed even more happily, with a gossipy and curious look on his face, and even pursed his lips to glance at Yu Wuwei behind the counter.

"What are you thinking about? It's not something like that! My dad came here specifically to prepare for the grand event in three months. Can you please not be so fanciful?" Liu Miaozi explained angrily.

"Oh! So that's how it is! I was saying it, we've been together every day these past few days, if there's a good son-in-law coming up, there's no way I wouldn't know!"

Feng Chuge looked as if he had realized what was happening, then he widened his eyes and continued gossiping:

"Miaozi! What kind of person do you prefer as your future lover? A mature, older man? Or a fresh, young man? Or a cold, handsome guy? Or a passionate, ice-cold couple?"

"Hmm~" Feng Chuge rolled his eyes again and said, "I think you and that little brother are quite a good match. One of you is a prudish iceberg girl, and the other is a reserved and flirty old driver. You are a perfect match!"

"Get out! I don't know you! You are not my best friend!" Liu Miaozi was so angry that she cursed, twisted her waist and turned around, looking towards the door.

At this moment, a group of customers came in. The leader was wearing luxurious brand-name clothes, with a dazzling gold chain, a fat beer belly, a face full of fat, and he held his head high and chest out, looking domineering and ready to defeat anyone.

"Wow! Miaozi! No way? You you you... you like this?!" Feng Chuge followed Liu Miaozi's line of sight and saw the nouveau riche in the lead at first sight. He looked stunned and held his chin with his hand!

"Feng Chuge! I will ignore you if you continue like this!" Liu Miaozi felt her eyes hurt when she saw the nouveau riche with a fat face and an arrogant look on his face. The guy next to him actually mixed her up with him. Just thinking about it made her want to vomit!

Yu Wuwei was the first to notice this group of people, especially the one in the lead.

The big gold chain on the neck is so dazzling that it blinds people's eyes. It is impossible not to pay attention to it!

The man in front of me was in his thirties, with a tattoo of an unknown bird on his right arm. He was a typical nouveau riche.

"Dear guests, what would you like to order?" The waiter came forward and asked with a standard smile.

"Give me a serving of your best dish, 'Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix,' and ten of your signature dishes! Make it quick, we'll eat here!" the man said with an expression of wealth and arrogance.

Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix is ​​the most famous signature dish of Chaoxianju today.

The ancestors of the Yu family left behind eight of their most famous signature dishes. After several ups and downs, the only one left is "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix".

The preparation of "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" is very complicated. The chef not only needs to have a very superb control over the heat, taste, and ingredients, but also has very strict requirements on knife skills.

Due to the complexity of this dish, it requires the cooperation of two chefs, one responsible for cutting the vegetables and the other responsible for cooking the ingredients.

There are only three chefs in Chaoxianju who are truly capable of knife skills. One of them is the big boss Yu Chenhuo, but he is in the hospital now. Even if he works in the restaurant, his health is not good enough.

The second one is the head chef Guo Liren, but he has to be the one responsible for cooking and cannot be distracted by knife skills.

The third one is the knife chef Lu Daquan, but he squatted at the door all night yesterday and was given a day off by Yu Wuwei today.

The waiter was embarrassed when he heard this and explained, "I'm sorry, sir, our chef is on leave today and can't make the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix for the time being. Could you please try another dish?"

"What?" The man was furious when he heard that it couldn't be done. He shouted, "I came here today just for the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix, and you actually told me you can't do it? How embarrassing for me! No, I must have the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix today. Make it for me quickly, I'm not short of money!"

The man spoke arrogantly with an air of "I'm not short of money, I'm rich and I can do whatever I want". It happened that a table of people next to him had just finished eating, paid the bill and left, so he sat down with everyone and said he would not leave no matter what.

The waiter was so embarrassed that he was about to cry. He looked at Yu Wuwei for help, as if to say: Young boss, the damage is too strong. I can't handle it. You should do it yourself!

Seeing this, Yu Wuwei walked over and signaled the waiter to take care of other things first while he would handle this.

Seeing that the young boss had taken over, the waiter fled back to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Seeing Yu Wuwei coming over, judging by his posture, he should be the boss of this place. The upstart spoke first, "You are the boss here, right? Don't talk nonsense to me. I'm here today to eat your Bai Niao Chao Feng. Hurry up and serve me!"

He thought Yu Wuwei was here to explain to him that the chef was away and couldn't cook anything, so he cut him off. Unexpectedly, Yu Wuwei smiled at him and said, "Okay, sir, please wait a moment. The preparation of Bai Niao Chao Feng is complicated, so we have to wait a while before serving."

The upstart was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something and said, "Hey, I'm treating you today, and we want to eat your authentic Bai Niao Chao Feng. Don't try to fool us!"

Yu Wuwei smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. We are absolutely fair to everyone. However, our dishes are now divided into two categories: ordinary and premium, and the prices are naturally different. I wonder if you would like the ordinary one or the premium one?"

The upstart was hearing the term "ordinary fine goods" for the first time. He blinked and said, "Needless to say? I have to treat you to fine goods! All fine goods, expensive ones, I have plenty of money!"

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment!" After Yu Wuwei finished the negotiation, he turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

I like people like you who have plenty of money!

The noise in front was so loud that the chef in the kitchen naturally heard what was happening in front.

As soon as Yu Wuwei entered the kitchen, head chef Guo Liren said with a worried look on his face, "Young Boss, you're so rash! How could you make such a promise so easily? Now that the big boss is away and Chef Lu is on vacation, I can't make a hundred birds pay homage to the phoenix by myself!"
