Chapter 83 The Temptation of Red Oil Chicken Legs



"As you can see, Xu Shang's small cafeteria... or should I say, the big cafeteria, has a lot of people eating here. Let's take a look at what they are eating!"

The host moved the camera to a person who was eating normally. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but once he looked at it, his eyes widened.

The red mapo tofu was radiant with an alluring sheen; the jelly was like white jade, trembling there. Of course, none of this mattered, the main point was that on top of the rice, a large chicken drumstick covered with an alluring greasy coating was covering the rice, making it invisible.

This is not the small drumstick from Tao Ji’s cafeteria, but an entire oversized pistol leg!

As the sour, spicy and spicy smell wafted over, someone swallowed their saliva involuntarily.

"Gurgle!"

The host suddenly felt that the food at Tao Ji Canteen had no appeal at all.

Resisting his appetite, he quickly continued the interview: "Excuse me, are you all here with meal coupons?"

"Not all of them! There are no odd jobs in the village, and there are people coming from other villages, so they still have to pay."

The host nodded and asked, "How much does this delicious-looking chicken drumstick rice cost?"

"Xiao Xu is only willing to charge us the cost price, four dollars."

"How much? Four dollars!"

The host was stunned for a moment. Is this really not charity?

Even for someone who only went to the vegetable market occasionally, he knew that with the current price of frozen chicken legs, this big chicken leg, which must weigh more than half a pound, would cost two or three yuan just to buy it!

Even if it’s wholesale, it won’t be much cheaper!

Can Xu Shang really make money by selling like this?

The fact is, Xu Shang didn't earn a penny, let alone a dime.

Are you kidding? He needs to make a few bucks from the folks on the working meal. If he is so stingy in looking for profit, why not make two more clay figures? The net profit of one clay figure is enough to make six dollars.

The price of four yuan is basically the price of raw materials. Xu Shang didn't even take into account the labor cost. He cooked for his fellow villagers purely for fun and to solve the lunch problem for his employees at the same time.

The host sniffed the aroma, and it felt like a wild dog was barking in his heart. He suddenly regretted asking Tao Ji Canteen to save some food for them. If they had eaten here...

Can’t think about it!

My mouth starts watering just thinking about it.

Soon, the host spotted Xu Shang serving food to people and couldn't help but come over to interview him: "Xu Shang, are you serving food to everyone yourself?"

Someone nearby immediately said with a smile: "Brother Xu not only personally served the dishes for everyone, but he also made all the dishes himself!"

The audience in the live broadcast room started arguing in the comment section.

"Master Tao was reluctant to give the workers chicken legs, but Xu Shang was cooking for the employees himself! I'm done, I'm so moved that I cried! I'm sorry! Xu Shang, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have slandered you! You are the real white moonlight! Even if you really want to cheat to become a star, that's fine, you deserve to be famous!"

"Damn it, you still say Xu Tiandi cheated? You still don't understand after watching the live broadcast, Xu Tiandi's cooking skills are really great! This dish makes me drool!"

"Let me show you my lunch, and then look at what Xu Shang made... There's no comparison, there's really no comparison!"

“A clay sculptor who can’t cook is not a good architect!”

"Damn it, I've worked on construction sites for so many years and I've never seen a chicken leg this big!"

"You're talking about why Tao GG is so desperate to compete with Xu Shang in the cafeteria, but this is just a step in his favor! His sesame cakes are famous all over the Internet!"

At the same time, Xu Shang seemed to notice that the host was glancing at the big chicken legs in red oil that he made from time to time, so he picked up one, shook off the red oil on it, and handed it to the host.

"Or, try it!"

Ah this?

The host looked at the big chicken drumstick in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and seemed to be in an intense struggle between his conscience and his desires.

Viewers expressed their opinions in the comment section.

"Host, please stop insisting and just give in."

"Bang!"

Tao Ji slammed his fist on the table. He was completely furious about the content of the preview live broadcast.

He is an architect who studied abroad, but he actually lost in reputation to a second-generation rich man who made his debut through variety shows. This is truly a case of "this is intolerable, even my uncle can tolerate it, but not my aunt."

He had already called the contractor over. Now that the contractor knew the whole story, he cursed Xu Shang to death in his heart.

Although this was because he had kept five dollars and didn't give the workers chicken legs, this small problem wouldn't have been so glaring if there hadn't been Xu Shang for comparison.

Now, there is a comparison between having chicken legs and having no chicken legs, and between small chicken legs and super large chicken legs.

It seems so disparate.

He didn't know how Tao Ji would deal with the matter in the end. To be honest, not making any money this time was a small loss. If he offended the Architects Association, he would be in big trouble.

"Tell your brother-in-law to get out of here!"

The contractor felt mixed emotions, but also felt relieved. This way, he should be fine.

Tao Ji then slapped five thousand yuan on the table. Tao Ji said to the contractor, "I know you want to save money, so I'll give you the money. You need to find the best chef for me! If you can't do this job well, you can get the hell out of here!"

The contractor nodded repeatedly and decided to put in some of his own profit.

He just didn't believe that he couldn't beat a mere rich second-generation.

During the lunch break, Qin Guangqing and his group opened the second-hand laptop and watched the live broadcast preview.

Normally, this laptop is a tool used by their construction team for daily entertainment. Occasionally, they will look at construction drawings and find some videos online to learn some skills for working on the construction site.

Of course now, they will definitely watch the live broadcast preview if they have time. After all, this is the show where they will appear, and I am afraid no one can resist not watching the show in which they themselves appear.

As a result, Qin Guangqing and his eight workers saw the gap between their own food and that of others.

"I recognize that one, he's the one who got the money for the renovation last time!" Someone immediately recognized Jiang Daqiang in the camera. When he saw Zhang Daqiang biting the plump chicken leg, he couldn't help but shed tears from the corner of his mouth.

"Damn it! What are they eating! What are we eating!"

"This big chicken leg makes me drool! We are not willing to give you even a small chicken leg! This Tao Ji is such a jerk!"

"Don't talk nonsense. Our food is not that good! It's definitely not bad either! Think about the past!"

Qin Guangqing stopped his co-workers from complaining. He had worked on the construction site for so many years and had experienced all kinds of hardships and fatigue. The food in Taoji Canteen was not bad. But he had never eaten such a big chicken leg sizzling with red oil.
