Seeing the expressions on their faces, Su Murong and Manager Yu were extremely pleased with themselves.
This is the best advertisement ever!
Immediately afterwards, the staff at the Star Gazing Tower set up two tables in the center of the venue, each with a serving of seasonal vegetables, fried tofu, fried dough sticks cut into sections, konjac tofu, and other side dishes.
This series of actions left everyone completely bewildered.
Mo Linfeng asked Su Murong, "Young Master Su, what is the meaning of this? Are you telling us to eat raw food?"
Wang Huanlin joked, "Young Master Su is treating us like rabbits, making us eat grass!"
Su Murong said confidently, "Don't be impatient, you two. I guarantee you'll want more in a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, a waiter brought the two chefs' spicy hot pot chicken to the table, and the aroma filled the air, making countless people swallow their saliva.
Everyone stared intently at the dish.
Shopkeeper Yu said, "Now, please invite the judges to come forward and taste our food."
Mo Linfeng and Wang Huanlin couldn't wait any longer. As soon as Manager Yu finished speaking, they immediately stepped forward, sat down at the table, and started eating!
Su Murong and Yang Cui had eaten this dish before, so they weren't too surprised. But it was different for the others. It was their first time eating it, and their expressions were priceless – the dish was fresh, fragrant, spicy, and numbing!
It's making everyone outside so hungry!
Wang Huanlin and Mo Linfeng kept saying, "Delicious, delicious."
To receive praise from the two most famous foodies in the county would make other restaurants in Wan'an County cry!
Seeing that they had tasted both portions of spicy hot pot chicken, Manager Yu stood on the high platform and continued, "Aren't you all curious why we serve so much lettuce before the spicy hot pot chicken? Let me explain."
Actually, there's another unique way to eat this dish: once you've almost finished the chicken, you can put this small iron pot on the stove to heat it up, and then put the vegetables in to cook. The taste is absolutely amazing. To be honest, the first time I ate it, I was so full I could barely walk.
Yang Cui and Su Murong only took a small bite, but Yin Zhihua, Wang Huanlin, and Mo Linfeng were different. They kept saying how spicy it was while their chopsticks kept going.
The aroma of the rice noodles wasn't as strong as this, and the onlookers could tolerate it, but now that the spicy hot pot chicken is out, people outside can't stand it anymore.
I don't know who shouted first, "Boss, I want to eat too, give me a bowl of rice noodles and spicy hot pot chicken!"
Immediately afterwards...
"I want one too!"
"Give me one too!"
...
Many customers have already placed reservations, and Manager Yu is beaming from ear to ear, but...
"Please be patient, gentlemen. We are temporarily out of rice noodles, spicy hot pot chicken..."
"What? No? If you don't have any, what kind of restaurant are you running? What kind of events are you holding? What are you giving us to try?" The speaker was the son of the county magistrate, who had a fiery temper.
"Because the ingredients for rice noodles are hard to find and the process is extremely complicated, our restaurant isn't sure if everyone will like it. So today, we're just letting everyone try it. Our restaurant also needs to make a profit, so please rest assured that the rice noodles will be available soon! To express our apologies, each table will receive a complimentary herbal jelly today!"
"Then hurry up and bring us the spicy hot pot chicken! Honestly, we don't even have any, and you're making us want to try it!"
Those who dine at the Star Gazing Tower are all wealthy and powerful; who cares who wins or loses between the two chefs!
The competition wasn't over yet, but the guests rushed into the observatory to order food.
This observatory is Manager Yu's territory. After all the guests went in, Manager Yu followed them in to take charge and manage the situation. The competition was left to Wei Shengjin.
Standing on the high platform, Wei Shengjin said loudly, "Hello everyone, I am the manager of the Star Gazing Pavilion in Gaoxin County. My surname is Wei. The results of the competition are out. Guo Sheng from Gaoxin County has won by a wide margin. It was worth it for Miss Yang to travel all the way from Wan'an County to Gaoxin County to personally teach you!"
Wei Shengjin's words confirmed that Yang Cui had not been kidnapped but had gone to Gaoxin County!
After the news of Yang Cui's kidnapping spread, the Guanxinglou issued a clarification, which silenced the villagers who saw Yang Cui being kidnapped, but the effect was not significant. But now it's different.
With so many people here, and so many of his own people mixed in with the crowd spreading rumors and stirring up trouble, Lin Shih-kang will be overwhelmed with problems again after today!
Oh, wait, there's also Liang Xinrong. I wonder how the Wan family will deal with Liang Xinrong after receiving that letter?
That's something to look forward to!
