Chapter 181 The Little Action Behind the Scenes



"Grandpa, I'll give you a plate of peanuts." Qin Zijin came out of the kitchen, holding a plate of peanuts and placed it on the table where He Tian and the others were.

He Tian rolled his eyes. "Madam, we spent over 30,000 yuan, and you just gave us peanuts?"

Qin Zijin looked at him with a smile without saying a word.

It was Xu Qingfeng who picked up a peanut and put it into his mouth.

At that moment, a burnt smell filled my mouth.

His eyes lit up, and he brought the peanuts directly in front of him, protecting them with his hands. "This is a gift from the boss lady. Don't try to steal it from me."

"No, Lao Xu, you can't eat alone."

"That's right. It's hard to get fat by eating alone."

He Tian and Lin Dahe realized that something was wrong and rushed over to grab it.

Three old men, who were two hundred years old in total, almost came to blows over a plate of peanuts.

Qin Zijin couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He stood beside Tang Shen and watched with a smile.

"There's something wrong with the table of guests that just left. They kept saying our food wasn't tasty." Tang Shen lowered his voice and whispered in Qin Zijin's ear.

Qin Zijin raised her eyebrows. "You said her cooking wasn't tasty? Then no one in the world could cook delicious food."

She is blessed with god-level cooking skills. Every dish she makes now is a god-level dish. It is impossible for it not to be delicious.

It seems that he is holding a grudge because he cannot afford to buy alcohol.

Qin Zijin shook his head and ignored it.

After Shao An left Qin Zijin's shop, he went to find his uncle angrily.

His uncle works in the Ministry of Industry and is in charge of merchants' affairs.

"Uncle, you have to make the decision for me." Shao An couldn't help feeling aggrieved as soon as he entered the door.

Seeing the aggrieved look on the face of a man in his thirties, Xu Shaoqiang frowned and angrily scolded, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Xu Shaoqiang's bad attitude, Shao An's face changed, and he told him what happened when he went to Qin Zijin's restaurant for dinner today, "Uncle, you must investigate carefully. This restaurant is definitely violating regulations. They are selling wine for a thousand yuan per catty, and the dishes are several times more expensive than other places. The food is just so-so, not worth the price at all. They must not have reported it to the Price Bureau. You should investigate them carefully."

"Qin's Private Kitchen?" Xu Shaoqiang always felt that the name sounded familiar.

Looking at Shao An's expression, you can tell that he is intentionally looking for trouble.

He also didn't want to bother with his nephew, who was always looking for trouble. He would not deliberately suppress a newly opened store to help his nephew.

But the price does seem to be a bit problematic, it's too expensive.

"I understand. Go back if you're fine. Don't spend all day suppressing dissidents instead of doing your job. If you have time, focus more on your business." Xu Shaoqiang waved his hand and sent Shao An away.

Although Shao An was unwilling, he didn't want to offend Xu Shaoqiang, so he had to nod and leave obediently.

As soon as he left, Xu Shaoqiang thought about it and called the Price Bureau to ask about the situation of this store.

If Qin Zijin wants to open a store, of course he has to do everything to perfection.

There are absolutely no problems in terms of industry, commerce, prices, and hygiene.

Xu Shaoqiang called and they immediately checked the situation for him.

"Mr. Xu, we've found some wine that costs one thousand yuan per ounce. It's called Monkey Wine. I heard it's a natural, wild brew, and it's very rare. I heard that even rich people couldn't drink it in the past. Once discovered, it was sent directly to the palace as a tribute, and it's rarely found."

"They provided a certificate from a professional organization confirming it was pure, natural monkey wine, so the price wasn't too high. This wine is priceless."

"As for the other dishes, they also provided us with a list of ingredients. We used only top-quality ingredients, and their restaurant is already well-positioned, so the price is no problem."

"Mr. Xu, do you have any questions?"

Xu Shaoqiang pondered for a moment before replying, "It's okay. I just heard someone mention it and came to ask out of curiosity."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

The priceless monkey wine?

He really had never heard of it.

After thinking about it, he called his teacher.

His teacher is an honorary professor of Kyoto University, who is particularly knowledgeable about history. He must have heard of this monkey.

"Teacher." When the phone was connected, Xu Shaoqiang couldn't help but laugh when he heard the strong voice on the other end.

"Shao Qiang, what brings you here? After you went to Suicheng, you haven't contacted me, an old man, for a long time." The old man laughed loudly. Although he was teasing his favorite student, he did not show any dissatisfaction.

Xu Shaoqiang smiled upon hearing this and quickly apologized, "It's the student's fault. I've been busy with work for a few years now and haven't been home for many years."

"Oh? So why did you call me today? You never come to me for no reason." Old Qi smiled. He knew that his student was a workaholic and had very little personal time, so he didn't mind.

"Look, a small shop has recently opened up here. The chef there is very skilled, and they also sell a kind of wine called Monkey Wine. However, the price is very high. Today, someone came to me to complain about them driving up the prices. I have a problem with this Monkey Wine..."

"What? What wine are you talking about?" Before Xu Shaoqiang could finish his words, Mr. Qi on the other end screamed excitedly.

"Teacher, it's monkey wine." Xu Shaoqiang understood after hearing the other party's reaction.

Unless he came across some antiques or valuable things, Mr. Qi would never get so excited.

"I'll buy a ticket and come over right away. Take me to see it!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Xu Shaoqiang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

He also wanted to ask about the monkey wine.

But never mind, since the teacher is coming in person, we can get to know each other better when we meet.

That bastard Shao An is up to no good again and wants to make trouble again.

Xu Shaoqiang shook his head and ignored the matter.

Shao An left Xu Shaoqiang, and the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he felt.

He had never experienced anything so humiliating. He was humiliated by a woman, and he would never let her go easily!

Since Xu Shaoqiang is unwilling to help, he can go find someone else!

Because of his connections, many people wanted to please him, including many people from the Ministry of Industry and the Price Bureau.

As long as they are willing to help, Shao An doesn't believe that he can't defeat Qin Zijin!

Shao An did what he wanted to do and immediately went to find those people who usually flattered him.

It is so easy to deal with a small restaurant that has no background or backing.

Shao An spent some money to make some arrangements, and immediately someone expressed indignation that they would deal with Qin Zijin.

A sneer appeared on Shao An's lips. He was waiting to see Qin Zijin's shabby little shop close down!
