What An Wanwan and the others didn't know was that He Shaoyuan had been on guard against this move and had already arranged for his men to keep watch at the city gate.
No.
An Wanwan and her friends felt like they were being followed as soon as they entered the city.
Are they ordinary people?
no.
The men following them were discussing where to make their move.
An Wanwan and her group shook them off in no time.
I made some inquiries.
An Wanwan and her companions headed straight for Fuyun Tower.
Mulberry leaf tofu was already famous in the town. As soon as they went to Fuyun Tower and mentioned mulberry leaf tofu, Manager Tong of the restaurant guessed the purpose of their visit.
Manager Tong invited An Wanwan and the others to sit in the backyard living room.
sit down.
Manager Tong cut to the chase: "Ladies, your tofu is not bad, but for our restaurant, it's just average. I doubt our owner would make enemies over this recipe."
He would say that.
An Wanwan wasn't too surprised.
She came prepared this time, raising an eyebrow and saying, "What if we add some other ingredients?"
Although she doesn't rely on others, she has no choice but to back down in this situation.
"Oh? You tell me!"
Manager Tong became somewhat interested.
An Wanwan calmly began to speak: "The food at your restaurant is quite good, but it's a pity that the menu changes too slowly. It's been the same dishes for a long time. Maybe it'll be okay for a year or two, but how many years?"
What did she mean by that?
Manager Tong said, "Miss, if delicious dishes could be made easily, they wouldn't be worth the price. Every dish in our restaurant is worth the price we charge."
"It's worth the price, but how many people can afford it?"
An Wanwan wasn't making baseless accusations; she had done some research.
Manager Tong was speechless.
An Wanwan continued, "If your restaurant only caters to the upper class, then never mind what I said. But your restaurants aren't just in big cities, they're in every city. That means your owners want to make more money, right?"
Manager Tong was naturally aware of this.
He couldn't wait to find out what recipe An Wanwan was going to sell to them.
"Girl, stop being so mysterious, just tell me!"
An Wanwan didn't waste any more time: "I want to sell you the hot pot recipe, but only if your boss comes to talk to me. Of course, I can make it first for you to try, and if you don't like it, then we can forget about it."
"this…"
Manager Tong hesitated for a moment but then agreed.
The main ingredient for hot pot is beef tallow.
In their land, oxen cannot be killed privately.
But their Floating Cloud Pavilion is no ordinary restaurant. An Wanwan bets that if she wants it, Manager Tong can definitely get it.
Shopkeeper Tong was somewhat surprised, but she still agreed to help.
The butter is in hand.
An Wanwan began rendering the butter. Once it was ready, she poured vegetable oil into the pot, added various seasonings, and began stir-frying methodically. Of course, she didn't add all the seasonings at once, but rather added them gradually while stir-frying.
She selects only the best ingredients, so the resulting hot pot broth is naturally of the highest quality.
It's a bit pungent.
Before long, most of the kitchen staff left, leaving only Manager Tong, An Miaomiao, and their head chef inside to hold the fort.
The broth is spicy, flavorful, and delicious.
Just smelling the fragrance it emits.
The chef couldn't wait to try it.
An Miaomiao was the most enthusiastic when it came to food. She called on the head chef to prepare a lot of hot pot dishes. She liked meat, so she chose meat for all of them.
"Young lady, can't the vegetables be cooked in hot water before eating?"
The head chef looked at her and asked.
"Sure, but I like to eat meat."
When An Miaomiao replied, her eyes never left her flesh.
The chef's lips twitched involuntarily.
This was the first time he had met such a down-to-earth girl.
His love for food is written all over his face.
