At this time, he asked Sha Zhu.
"Zhu Zi, do you know how to bargain? We'll have to go through a lot of hassles with other people when we go to buy out the store later."
When Sha Zhu heard about the bargaining, he immediately recommended himself.
"Then you can rest assured. With me here, bargaining is a piece of cake for me."
Sha Zhu was not bragging when he said this, he really has a lot of experience in this area.
When he was working in the canteen kitchen, he often went out to purchase goods, and he had a lot of experience in bargaining.
He was determined to win this bargain.
The car drove slowly and soon arrived at the destination of this trip.
As soon as he got off the car, Sha Zhu felt a sense of pride. Although he was dressed simply when he got out of the luxury car, no one dared to look down on him. They would only say that he was low-key and dressed simply.
But when he saw the hotel he was about to run, his eyes were opened.
The old hotel in front of us occupies a large area and is located in the center of Sijiu City, next to the most lively and prosperous place in Sijiu City.
This hotel occupies a large area and is luxuriously decorated. It is obvious that it is not a place that ordinary people can afford to eat.
But this time he was very confident because he had Liu Xiaojun backing him up, and he stood very straight.
Then Liu Xiaojun got off the car and walked to his side and said.
"Zhu Zi, let's go. Stop looking. You won't get enough of it. I've booked a table here. Let's go and try some food."
When Sha Zhu heard that he was going to eat again, he said.
"Ah, are we eating again? Didn't we eat before we came here? It's only half past, and we're already having another meal."
Liu Xiaojun explained.
"We're going to eat here so you can taste the food and see their experience so you can learn from them and broaden your horizons."
After saying that, he pulled Sha Zhu towards the hotel door.
There was a receptionist waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw the two of them, she did not look down on them, but spoke politely.
"Gentlemen, would you like to have dinner? If you don't have a reservation, there are only tables in the lobby."
And Liu Xiaojun spoke.
"I have an appointment. Mr. Liu called yesterday to make the reservation. The appointment is at 1 o'clock."
The other party said respectfully.
"Okay sir, we'll check it out right away. If there's no problem, we'll send someone to take you to your reserved seat."
After a quick check by the front desk clerk, another etiquette lady came forward and spoke.
"Gentlemen, please come this way. I'll take you there."
After saying that, the etiquette lady led the way and soon arrived at their location.
The reserved room was in the private room on the second floor, and the menu came up quickly.
Liu Xiaojun handed the menu to Sha Zhu and said to him.
"Zhu Zi, I'll leave this to you. You're good at this, so go ahead and do it."
Sha Zhu took the menu without hesitation.
As a chef, he naturally knew what dishes to order to test a chef's skills. Sha Zhu took the menu without even looking at it and said to the waiter.
"I won't look at the menu. I'll just order a few dishes and see if your chef can prepare them."
The waiter said quickly.
"Sir, I'll write it down for you and give it to the kitchen to see if they can make it. If they can, we'll make it for you. If not, you'd better order from the menu."
Seeing that the other party's attitude was very good, Sha Zhu quickly nodded and agreed, and began to say the name of the dish.
"Then I'll have Wensi tofu as an appetizer, squirrel mandarin fish as the main course, and Kung Pao chicken and boiled cabbage as sides. That's all I have. Go show it to your chef."
The other party quickly went to the kitchen.
Leaving the two of them in the house, Liu Xiaojun asked.
"Zhu Zi, do you have any comments on the dishes you ordered?"
And Sha Zhu said it without ambiguity.
"There's a lot of knowledge involved here. Let me explain it to you in detail."
"This first dish, Wensi Tofu, is a test of their kitchen's knife skills. Without years of hard work, this dish can't be made. Even if it is made, it depends on whether the tofu strands are as thin as a hair."
"As for the second dish, squirrel mandarin fish, firstly, it depends on whether their kitchen has the corresponding ingredients, which is a test of their materials, and secondly, it depends on how well they prepare the sauce."
"And the Kung Pao Chicken dish. Several different kinds of diced chicken need to be added to the wok one by one in the right order and stir-fried. The stir-frying technique and control of the heat are also very important. This is the test of their cooking skills."
"As for the last dish, boiled cabbage, it's a test of their knowledge. It's a non-spicy Sichuan dish that few people know about, and few know how to make it."
After listening to it, Liu Xiaojun kept praising it.
"Zhu Zi, it's really a good idea to bring you along this time. If you weren't here, I wouldn't be able to test their true abilities. It's up to you to perform, Zhu Zi. I'll act as your younger brother and pretend you're the boss."
After hearing this, Sha Zhu also spoke very politely.
"No problem, just leave it all to me, and I'll definitely bargain for you later."
The other waiter also came back at this time and said to Sha Zhu.
"Sir, except for the squirrel mandarin fish, we are out of ingredients right now. All the other dishes you requested can be made. Do you want to exchange the squirrel mandarin fish for another one?"
Sha Zhu also said this after hearing this.
"Give me the menu, I'll change the dish."
The other party handed the menu back to Sha Zhu.
Sha Zhu kept flipping through the menu and saw the dish he wanted.
Then he pointed to one of them and said.
"Then I'm going to switch to this Peking duck and see what the difference is between your duck and the duck at Fujulou."
The waiter on the side explained.
"Sir, you have a good eye. Our roast duck uses the same duck embryo as Fujulou's, and the chef who roasts the duck is also a master with many years of experience."
After the introduction, several waiters left.
There were only two people left waiting for the food to arrive.
Liu Xiaojun said to him.
"Zhu Zi, what are you looking at with this roast duck?"
Sha Zhu then said again.
"The roast duck test is whether the restaurant is willing to pay attention to whether the duck they use is the same duck as Fujulou. If they are unscrupulous and use local ducks to make up the quality, an experienced person can taste it at one bite."
Very open, just in the gap between Shazhu's words.
The first dish served was Wensi tofu.
The dish was served in a soup bowl, with the tofu floating in it like flowers.
Sha Zhu didn't say anything. His first step was to pick up a piece of tofu and look at its thickness.
After looking at it carefully, he put it back into his mouth.
Liu Xiaojun standing aside didn't even dare to breathe.
After seeing Sha Zhu finish eating, he immediately asked.
"How's it going, Pillar?"
