The people waiting at the door of the shop have already lined up consciously, and they are shrinking their necks in the cold wind. Based on

previous experience, if there are too many people waiting, the people who come later will not wait any longer, and continuing to wait will only freeze and waste time. The boss is ruthless and will not be soft-hearted for anyone, so when they saw that the five tables were already full, they stopped waiting.

Today, six tables and eight single seats were opened at once, and the number of people waiting increased significantly, and these people have exceeded the number of people who came for lunch.

At the beginning, Jiu Jiu would persuade people who couldn't get in line to leave and wait for the next opportunity, but now he no longer persuades them. It's useless to persuade them, and they will be pestered by them.

Jiu parked his bike, opened the door and walked into the store with the insulated box, put all the ingredients for today in the refrigerator, packed up simply, wrote today's menu, and took out the small blackboard.

When everyone saw today's dishes, they were all a little dumbfounded.

There was only one line of words on the small blackboard:

Today's dishes: 6998 yuan/person (four dishes).

The specific four dishes were not written, and it was impossible to order them one by one. Some people who tightened their belts and wanted to try something new were very angry when they saw the price. They came for the seafood rice, crab roe porridge and shrimp porridge. Although they were all over a thousand, they could still afford it once a month. But this one was 6998 yuan per person, which was really scary. Most people couldn't accept eating so much in one meal.

Someone started to yell, "Didn't they say they wouldn't raise the price? Why is it suddenly 6998 yuan per person?"

"I wanted to spend 298 yuan to try the seafood rice and see what it is like, but now it's 6998 yuan. Who can afford it?"

"I don't want four dishes. Can I choose one?"

People who thought they couldn't get in line got excited. "Can those in front move aside? Let's eat!"

"You really don't want us to eat, right? We've been waiting in line for so long!"

"Have you read the news, brother? Look at the current prices of seafood. Are you trying to get a bargain at Magic Fish Shop?"

"It's true that the price hasn't increased. Last time I came here, I only ordered a single shrimp porridge and shrimp sashimi. The two dishes cost nearly 6,000 yuan. Now it's four dishes. What's there to argue about? If you can't accept it, don't eat it. If you can accept it, just keep waiting. Even if you argue to the death, the boss won't change the price for you. Why bother?"

The noise outside the store was deafening. He was concentrating on preparing lunch today.

If he still ordered like before, some of the dishes he wrote would consume too much ingredients, and some ingredients would not sell, and he would have to prepare the same dish repeatedly, which was time-consuming and laborious. By giving the price like this, he could flexibly adjust the four dishes according to the existing ingredients to ensure that the ingredients were consumed evenly.

The price is placed outside, and those who want to eat can stay, and those who don't want to eat can go elsewhere.

Rujiu prepared all the necessary ingredients before opening the door and inviting the guests in.

Seeing Rujiu coming out, the people who had not left started to clamor again.

"Boss Rujiu, aren't your rules too overbearing? Just give a price and indicate four dishes. Which four dishes are they? What if there are dishes we don't want to eat? Will you sell them to us as a bundle as well?"

Rujiu was wearing the chef's uniform of a small shop and a black mask. His long hair was tied up and tucked into a chef's hat. He looked neat and tidy, with a cold and indifferent look on his face.

He said: "The rules of the Magic Fish Restaurant have always been overbearing, and old customers know it. As for not wanting to eat..."

The waiting customers saw the cold boss's eyes seemed to bend, and then heard him say: "The Magic Fish Restaurant specializes in all kinds of not wanting to eat."

Customers: "..."

The person who spoke was choked. He wanted to eat, but didn't want to order so much. It was too expensive. One meal would cost a month's salary.

"Then, what if I'm allergic to seafood? You still have to let people eat?"

Jiu glanced at the man, "If you are allergic to seafood, why do you come to the seafood restaurant to eat?"

The man: "..."

Jiu said: "The price is here. Those who can accept it can come in and eat. Those who can't accept it can't come. After all, it's a matter of money. I don't write about the specific dishes, not to make things difficult for customers, but the four dishes will be adjusted at any time, so I can't write it."

The phrase "money matter" hits the sore spot of most people.

They are arguing here, and in the end it's all because of money. They want to eat, but think it's too expensive, and they always feel that they can change the status quo by fighting for it.

Lu Jiu opened the door and said, "Those who can accept it can enter the store."

The first in line was an auntie, white and plump, very wealthy, wearing a thick fur coat that reached her knees, wrapping herself tightly, and constantly pacing on the spot.

The auntie smiled kindly, "Young boss, can I wait before going in? Keep the first table for me. My son is still on the way and should be here soon. I came to line up early just so that my son can have a bite."

Lu Jiu saw that the auntie was stamping her feet because of the cold, and her high boots could not keep out the cold outside, "Go in and wait, and order after your son arrives."

The auntie was feeling very cold and was about to go in when she heard someone running over.

"Mom, we're here!"

Two young men ran all the way from the parking lot. One of them was also white and fat, and looked a lot like the aunt, and it was obvious that he was the biological son. The other looked a bit ordinary, commonly known as a "popular face", and had no memory. The

white and fat young man exhaled white air from his mouth, and gave the aunt a hug when he saw her, "Thank you for your hard work, mom, this is my colleague, Cheng."

The aunt smiled and patted her son on the back, pulling off her gloves, "Hello, hello, our Hanhan has worked hard for you to take care of him."

The aunt was too enthusiastic, and Cheng Cheng was a bit overwhelmed.

The aunt pushed her son inside, "Go in first, don't block the door."

When Lin Han and Cheng entered the door, they couldn't help but look at the legendary Boss Lu a few more times, and then exchanged glances with each other.

Lin Han: Is this Boss Lu? He feels so cold.

Jingcheng: Indeed, a little bit. Anyone who can make the captain compromise must be a ruthless person.

Lin Han nodded in agreement.

The two of them were still quietly looking at Lu Jiu until they sat down at the first table.

Lu Jiu did not wait at the door, but went back to the kitchen to prepare.

Although some people shouted that it was overbearing, too expensive, and they couldn't afford it, there were still many people coming in. The private room was occupied by three friends brought by an old customer. The seats at the bar were very popular, especially for female customers. They came in groups and could choose a table for four. They insisted on sitting at the bar, wanting to feel the beauty of Boss Lu up close, but unfortunately the beauty was given to the mask, so it would be nice to talk.

The female customer deliberately tried to strike up a conversation with Lu Jiu, but Lu Jiu was concentrating on preparing delicious food and ignored all the meaningless and boring chatter.

Lin Han and Yong Cheng, who had been observing secretly, looked at each other: Boss Lu is really very cold!

Seeing that the two of them had been peeking at the chef, the aunt lowered her voice and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with Boss Lu?"

As a family member of Lin Han, the aunt knew about the existence of enhanced people. No matter how others viewed this department, the Lin family was very grateful to them for saving their son's life, so they were a good department. The Lin family had money, and they would donate some "research funds" to the "Special Security Department" from time to time.

Lin Han knew everything about the ingredients in the Magic Fish Shop from the "Special Security Department". The Huahong fruit wine that the captain bought back was not available to them. Only the enhanced people who went out on missions could carry it to save their lives. The prospective enhanced people could only watch.

The researchers of the "Special Security Department" suspected that Si Xu and Jiang Ge had become enhanced people for no reason, which might be related to them eating too many ingredients containing energy.

Lin Han dreamed of becoming an enhanced person as soon as possible. Since the researchers speculated so, what was he waiting for? Things that could be solved with money were not a problem. If he wanted to eat, his mother would come to queue for him with just a phone call.

Lin Han wanted to use money to put himself in the ranks of enhanced people.

Lin Han shook his head and said in a low voice, "Nothing wrong, Boss Lu is a ruthless man, even our captain has to give him three points."

Lu Jiu's hand paused as she was cutting the scallop meat. Where did this rumor come from? And who is your captain?

Auntie was particularly surprised, "No way, someone like Captain Lu would give in?"

Lu Jiu: "..."

It turned out to be a reinforced person.

"Of course not, otherwise you wouldn't bother queuing for me. The ingredients here are so bad that even our captain can only find opportunities to eat." Lin Han hugged his mother, "My mother is still the best. When I want to eat, she will immediately queue for me. Thank you, mom."

The aunt was coaxed and couldn't close her mouth. "Tell mom when you have time to come out, and mom will queue for you. We have no shortage of money or time, and we can eat anytime."

After saying that, she didn't forget to call Yongcheng, "Xiao Weng is the same. Next time, come with Hanhan, and auntie will queue for you together."

"Thank you, auntie." He can queue, but his wallet can't!

He didn't come here to eat and drink for free. He didn't have time to queue. He wanted to use auntie's queue position. He would pay for the meal himself.

Jiu Jiu puts each dish on a wooden tray, one tray for one person, and places wooden spoons, wooden chopsticks, seasoning soy sauce, coral greens and hand towels on it.

Today's four dishes are seafood rice, grilled crab legs with soy sauce, pickled shrimp tails with soy sauce and shrimp sashimi, with a bowl of shrimp soup. The portion of seafood rice has been adjusted. People can't be full with just one portion of seafood rice. What should we do with the remaining dishes?

Jiu Jiu strictly controls the portion, trying to make people finish and be full without wasting anything.

It is more convenient for guests sitting at the bar. Jiu Jiu puts the prepared tray on the bar and they can bring it to themselves.

Guests at tables of four and private rooms need to be served by Jiu one by one. Some guests at tables of four will also come to the table to serve themselves, which is faster than Jiu serving them one by one.

Lin Han and Yong Cheng served themselves, and Lin Han also brought back his mother's portion.

The thin wooden tray is a small world. The position of each dish is very particular. The wooden spoon, wooden chopsticks and hand towel are also placed very considerately, all in the most convenient position.

Looking at the food on the tray, many people said it was worth it. In addition to the beautiful presentation, the portion is also enough for one person to eat. The key is to eat four dishes at a time. According to the old temper of the boss, it was good to have four dishes in a single day. Even if there were, they could not eat them all. On the contrary, it is better this way. The portion is adjusted and the dishes are more, which is very good.

The lunch photos were quickly posted on Weibo, making a group of fans who couldn't get a taste of it scream with cravings.

Lin Han took photos from all angles with his phone, saving them for when he got home to make his kids cry. After taking enough photos, he was ready to eat.

It was a mistake to arrange the dishes too beautifully. Lin Han didn't know which one to eat first with his chopsticks. In the end, he simply scooped a spoonful of seafood rice into his mouth. It was so delicious that he squinted his eyes and enjoyed it very much.

Lin Han and Cheng Cheng were both stunned after taking only one bite. The two looked at each other with undisguised shock in their eyes.

It's so full of energy!

If you eat this kind of food every day, you can't help but become a strengthened person!

The aunt praised repeatedly, "This restaurant is really good, the taste is very good, the ingredients are very fresh, no wonder it is so popular on the Internet...Son, you eat more, this crab leg is for you."

Lin Han hurriedly refused, "Mom, you eat, I have some here, these are enough for me."

The aunt did not allow any explanation and served her crab legs and sashimi to her son, "It's not easy for you to come out, eat more, I can come to eat anytime, it doesn't matter this time...Xiao Weng, you can eat too, don't be polite."

Yancheng hurriedly thanked.

A female customer at the bar suddenly asked, "Boss, can I order wine a la carte? I have been craving your red fruit wine for a long time."

Lu Jiu, who was cleaning up the counter, paused, "There is no today, it will be available tomorrow."

The female customer muttered that if she could queue up today, she might not be able to queue up tomorrow.

He has sold all the Huahong fruit wine to the "Special Security Department" and has been busy since he came back. He hasn't had time to brew some more. He will brew

it when he has time. Tomorrow is the birthday of God Si. If he comes to the store to eat, he should drink some fruit wine. If there are friends or family around, they can only drink Huahong fruit wine. Huaqing fruit wine cannot be taken out.

Just as he was thinking, the door of the store was pushed open and Xiaoqiu walked in.

As soon as Jiu Jiu saw Xiaoqiu, he immediately remembered that he forgot to prepare a magic meal for God Si!

Si Xu is the customer with the highest consumption and favorite value in the store. The Chef God system will give him certain privileges. For example, the income from take-out dishes is also counted in the Chef God system as the store's income, so Si Xu can go to the second floor so quickly.

"Hello, Mr. Lu, I'm here to get lunch."

Lu Jiu: "..."

Lu Jiu glanced at the ingredients that had just been put away, "Wait a minute."

He made another portion on the spot and sent it to Si Xu. It didn't matter if it wasn't a magic meal, the nutrition was always higher than other foods.

Someone at the bar asked, "Can we take out from the Magic Fish Shop?"

Lu Jiu's subordinates kept saying, "No."

"Then what is this... a privilege?"

"There are privileges everywhere."

"We are freezing outside queuing, but they can take it away. I'm really jealous."

Xiaoqiu: "..."

Did he get into trouble?

Lu Jiu just wanted them to look up at the "Dining Rules" to see what the grades are, when she heard the aunt at the first table say: "Why are you so weird, everyone has a family, if it was you who opened the restaurant and your family had no food to eat, would you insist on not giving food to your family?"

Lu Jiu: "..."

No, aunt, please don't talk nonsense, this is really not a family...

Xiaoqiu: "..."

Wow! Isn't this a big misunderstanding?

The aunt's words were very destructive. No matter who he was or what the rules were, he had to give in in front of his family.

Talking about fairness in an unfair family relationship is impossible unless your head is stuffed with cotton.

Someone asked: "If they are really family members, then we really have nothing to say. The key is whether they are family members or not?"

Everyone has a gossipy soul, especially since Boss Rue has been so popular recently, and there are too many people who want to dig into his private life.

Rujiu found a small insulated box, put the packed dishes in one by one, and handed it to Xiaoqiu who was waiting.

Xiaoqiu knew that she had gotten into trouble, and left with the insulated box without hesitation.

"Boss Rue, are they family members or not?" Some people still kept asking this question.

Rujiu wiped his hands and said, "Not a family member, but someone who is very important to me."

"Oh oh oh~~~~" The customers made a uniform "oh" sound.

Rujiu: "..."

Oh, then oh, why do you have to say it in such a tortuous and meaningful way? !

"It looks like it will be soon, and they will become family soon." Auntie continued to talk in a shocking way.

Lu Jiu: "..."

Auntie, please stop talking.

Lu Jiu found it hard to imagine what it would be like if Si Shen became a family member... He couldn't think about it, and his face got hot just thinking about it.

"Wow, it really is possible! Boss Lu, are you blushing?"

Lu Jiu said coldly, "No." "

Don't think we don't know you're shy because you're wearing a mask. The tips of your ears are already red."

Lu Jiu: "..."

This time's customers are not very good, and he really wants to spear them all out with a harpoon!

After lunch, Lu Jiu closed the store door, but did not leave. He went to the second floor and entered the super smart kitchen to start brewing red fruit wine.

Jiujiu planned to brew more and found a 20L wine barrel. During the brewing process, Jiujiu was careful not to sing. If he accidentally brewed a magic wine and sold it to customers, it would be a serious problem. Jiujiu

spent an afternoon brewing wine in the super smart kitchen, and he didn't know that he had even given birth to a child online.

The cause was the sentence "someone very important to me" that Jiujiu said at noon.

A female customer cried online.

A customer who is obsessed with appearance gave up treatment in the late stage: "I went there for Boss Rui's looks and delicious food. In the end, I was satisfied with the delicious food, but I didn't see Boss Rui's handsome face. He wore a mask the whole time. I turned into a lemon spirit. I wished that the mask was me! Did you think it would be fine if you couldn't see his handsome face? Reality gave me a hard punch! Boss Rui actually has someone important! Who on earth seduce Boss Rui, who has such a handsome face? Isn't Boss Rui our Boss Rui?! Raised a fifty-meter sword.jpg"

The female customer's Weibo is not very popular. It is full of posts about her mood, looking at handsome guys, and eating delicious food. She herself did not expect that this Weibo post would be pushed to the top. The comment section is very lively, and everyone is trying to find out who Boss Rui's "important person" is.

People who were having lunch at the Magic Fish Restaurant at noon followed the gossip. Don’t be so subtle. What important person? It’s obviously the family, okay?

So, the crowd of gossipers went from the “important person” of the boss of Pa Lai to who the “family” of the boss of Pa Lai is.

After some efforts by netizens, the title of the family of the boss of Pa Lai finally fell on a female artist named Qiu Yuqian.

There are three reasons for the title:

first, she was in the same company as Lu Jiu (now sold to “Feng Shuo” by “Chuangxing”), and had many opportunities to contact. She worked with the Dream group, and many photos of her and Lu Jiu were taken at that time (although there were only photos of them talking, Qiu Yuqian smiled sweetly in every photo).

Second, she once publicly stated that she liked quiet, introverted, and handsome boys like Lu Jiu. It is said that she pursued Lu Jiu crazily, but it is still uncertain whether she succeeded (Lu Jiu used to cover up her homosexuality, but now she has turned over a new leaf. Everything was directed and acted by Duan Chengzhou himself, so the probability that Lu Jiu likes girls is very high).

Third, Qiu Yuqian posted wedding photos a year ago, and there were rumors on the Internet that she was married. Her marriage partner is likely to be Lu Jiu.

Someone quickly found out that Qiu Yuqian had forwarded a Weibo post about baby care half a year ago. At that time, some people speculated whether she had given birth to a baby. In addition, she had almost no activities in the past year, so it was natural for people to think that she was pregnant and had a child.

After so many things happened one after another, Boss Ru had an important person, a family, a secret marriage and a baby. The baby is already a few months old. The year Boss Ru disappeared was because he was accompanying the birth and taking care of the baby.

A big shot dug up a photo from somewhere. In the photo, there was a group of people, and Qiu Yuqian was the center. She was holding a baby with blurred eyes in her arms. It looked like they were holding a full-month banquet for the baby.

Rujiu's fans were originally just watching the excitement, and not many people believed it. Rujiu is only 20 years old this year, and it is impossible for her to get married so early. The photo was suddenly dug out, and all the fans were shocked. Some shouted that they didn't believe it, @藺老板律师团准备, and some enlarged the baby's photo, trying to find the shadow of Rujiu and Qiu Yuqian on the baby's face.

When Si Xu received Wen Qin's call, even the name of Lu Jiu's child had been "dug out" on the Internet.

Si Xu: "..."

Si Xu's temples were throbbing, "It's fake, send a lawyer's letter to the rumormonger."

Wen Qin: "How do you know it's fake? Do you know what he did after missing for a year?"

Si Xu: "..."

I really don't know.

Wen Qin: "You should confirm with him."

This afternoon, Si Xu originally didn't plan to let Xiao Qiu go to the Magic Fish Restaurant to get food. It was Jiang Ge who called him and asked him when to go to the Magic Fish Restaurant. He wanted to go with him for a free meal. He mentioned that Lu Jiu had changed the system and there would be four dishes and two new dishes for lunch. He saw the pictures that they had sent.

Si Xu also looked at the picture. It was very pretty and must be delicious. He waited for Lu Jiu to call him and ask when he would pick up the food. However, he waited and waited but no call came. So Xiao Qiu went over directly.

The food that was packed back was the same as the food in the store, except that there were no beautiful bowls and delicate dishes, nor the atmosphere of the Magic Fish Store. Eating the same food, the mood was completely different.

Si Xu called Lu Jiu, but Lu Jiu's phone was not connected as usual. It was pure luck that he could get through to Lu Jiu.

Si Xu called once every once in a while to see when he could get through.

Rujiu's cell phone was in his pocket, and he also put it in the super smart kitchen. Due to the space of the super smart kitchen, the cell phone had no signal. If he left the cell phone outside, he could hear it when it rang, but it would be affected if he brought it inside.

When he finished brewing the Huahong fruit wine, it was almost time for dinner. He packed up and went downstairs to prepare dinner.

Rujiu roughly calculated that according to the price and customer flow, he could draw a blind box about once a month, of course, under the normal circumstances of opening the store. If he closed the store every time, it would be ten days or half a month, and definitely not a month.

The cell phone in his pocket kept vibrating. He took it out and looked at it. It was a missed call reminder. They were all calls from Si Xu.

Rujiu was confused. The cell phone was in his pocket the whole time, but there was no reminder when a call came in. What's the use of vibrating now!

Lu Jiu thought Si Xu had something urgent to do, so he called him back in a hurry.

"Where are you?" Si Xu asked.

"In the store." Lu Jiu felt guilty. It seemed normal that she couldn't answer Si Xu's calls.

"Your phone..."

"I kept it in my pocket. It didn't remind me..." Lu Jiu paused. He received the missed call reminder when he came out of the super smart kitchen. It shouldn't be the pot on his phone, but the pot in the super smart kitchen.

"Did you mute it?" Si Xu was still looking for the reason.

Lu Jiu gritted his teeth and threw the pot to the mute. "Yeah, I accidentally touched it."

Si Xu didn't ask any more questions. "I'm almost in the store."

Lu Jiu: "???"

He looked at the sky outside, then looked at the time, and confirmed that it was not time for dinner yet.

Lu Jiu said "oh", hung up the phone, and waited for Si Xu to come over.

At this time, on the Internet, the girl with the microscope did not find Lu Jiu's shadow on the baby's face, but found Lu Jiu's shadow on a woman's face!

The Internet was full of laughter, and many people tagged Lu Jiu, asking him if he still needed a mother, and to come out and identify his mother.

The baby was not found, but the mother was!
