Several dishes were served, fragrant and beautifully presented. The shopkeeper was quite satisfied and introduced them: "This one is braised pork, this one is shredded pork with fish flavor, this one is Kung Pao chicken, and this one is sweet and sour pork tenderloin."
Zhao Letong's mouth was drooling. It looked delicious. It was also introduced in the book. It was a classic dish passed down from the heroine's previous life.
There are countless dishes like this. I am really curious about the dimension where the heroine lived in her previous life. There are so many delicious foods.
"Tongtong, try it first."
Zhao Letong was not shy and took a few bites of each. The taste was really good, but he couldn't let the heroine get too proud. "It's okay."
The shopkeeper was very surprised. How could this girl be here?
The boss doesn't like children very much, right?
But judging from the boss's expression, he didn't seem to mind him, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
"Since it's okay, then stay."
Zhao Letong rolled his eyes and said, "I want my fifth nephew."
"Fifth nephew? What is this?"
The shopkeeper explained, "This is the young lady's junior. This is General Zhao's daughter who came over from behind. Although she's young, she's older than him. Her nephews are accompanying her to dinner."
"Oh, please come in together, don't keep me waiting."
"good."
Soon, Zhao Youning and the other man came in, worriedly protecting her: "Aunt, why are you here? Sir, I'm sorry to bother you."
Zhao Letong, [Don't worry, I'm loved by everyone, and flowers bloom wherever I go. The handsome guy likes me too and treated me to delicious food.]
Zhao Youning was very proud: "Thank you for taking care of my aunt."
Ye Heqi liked the polite child very much: "Your little aunt is very cute, I like her too. Would you like some snacks?"
"Thank you, but no thanks."
[Fifth nephew, these dishes taste good, but the cook is not good. Tell the master, only the menu is needed, not the cook.]
She is so smart. She can eat delicious food and cut off the heroine's financial resources. Let's see how she harms my nephews in the future.
Zhao Youning felt a little embarrassed. How could he have the nerve to meddle in other people's family affairs?
The shopkeeper took the opportunity to say, "That lady wants to cooperate with us. She'll come up with a menu and have new dishes every month, but she wants 30% of the profit."
[Robbery? She's asking for 30% for nothing? She's got the nerve to do that even with the abacus falling on her face?]
Zhao Youning, a childish person, exclaimed, "Thirty percent! That's too much! She doesn't do anything, and it's all us who have to work hard. It's not worth it."
Ye Heqi nodded: "It's indeed too much. What do you think is the appropriate amount?"
Zhao Youning said: "We bought the menu. It's a one-time deal. If we can't cooperate, we won't be taken advantage of."
Zhao Letong gave a thumbs up, saying that his fifth nephew said it very well.
The shopkeeper was also smart and said, "Boss, this is not a bad idea. These dishes look fresh. The chef can take a look and make about 70% to 80% of them. If we try a few more times, we can make them too. We don't even need to buy them.
However, for the sake of long-term cooperation, we should still give her some money, but only we can sell it, she can't sell it to other families."
[What a dishonest businessman! This shopkeeper is quite good.]
Zhao Youning gave a thumbs up: "The shopkeeper is awesome."
"You take care of the arrangements."
Ye Heqi didn't even need to personally take care of such a small matter. Zhao Letong's eyebrows narrowed with joy, which made her very angry.
"We should go home. Grandfather must be worried. Boss, see you later."
"You can come anytime. This is my sign. No matter which Baiweiju restaurant you go to in the future, they will treat you like me."
Ye Heqi gave Zhao Letong a jade plaque. It was a rare black jade with only a simple "Ye" engraved on it. Zhao Letong happily accepted it and said, "Thank you, Brother Ye."
Zhao Youning said, "Call me uncle, why call me brother?"
The younger sister calls him brother, but what does he call him, uncle?
"Oh, Uncle Ye."
Ye Heqi didn't care, "Go back, be careful on the road."
"Goodbye, Uncle Ye."
Zhao Letong waved his hand. The child acted like an adult, which was so cute. Ye Heqi couldn't help but show tenderness in his eyes. This child was so lovable.
As they walked out of Baiweiju, the shopkeeper was bargaining with Qiao Yujiao. Qiao Yujiao's face flushed with anger. "You only gave me fifty taels of silver for one dish. Aren't you too ruthless?"
"Hey, you can't say that. Girl, your request is really shady. You want to take 30% of our profits. Do you know how much that is?
"One dish costs two taels of silver, and if we sell hundreds of them a day, we'd make over a hundred taels a day. Even robbing money wouldn't be that fast."
Qiao Yujiao said arrogantly, "Robbery is illegal. I guarantee that these dishes of mine are unique in the world. Shopkeeper, think about it carefully. Cooperation is mutually beneficial. You can raise the price of the dishes by 30%. You won't lose anything.
Anyway, the people who come to your house to eat are all rich or noble, no one will care about a few taels, so don't be so rigid in doing business."
Zhao Letong was stunned. "Are they taking advantage of their customers? Other restaurants can make that dish just by eating it a few times. What's the point of selling it cheaply?"
Zhao Youning was just a substitute for the food. Baiweiju allowed them to come and eat as they pleased, but they were family members and he couldn't let them suffer any loss, so he reminded the shopkeeper.
Qiao Yujiao's expression changed. "Where did you come from, kid? What do you know? Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking. Do you have any manners?"
The shopkeeper's face darkened: "This is our distinguished guest, Miss. This is the situation. If you are willing to sell it, fifty taels is not a small amount. Three dishes for one hundred and fifty taels, many people can't earn that much in a year.
As a person, don't be too greedy. The food is good, but your character is not so good. I am not at ease working with you."
