Chapter 238: Business
The melon pancake was just right. It was crispy on the outside but soft in the inside. In just one bite, you can smell a flavorful aroma.
The beef melon stew was very suitable for people who love meat. Just a piece of beef and a piece of melon can satisfy a person.
Each dish has its own unique taste. It was made with the same ingredients, but they all taste different. Those dishes cannot be compared to the craft of their chefs in the restaurant.
“Zhi’er, you stay in our restaurant. I will hire you as our chef. I will give you a monthly salary, how about it?”
Bai Zhi shook her head: “I am afraid that this is not possible. I like to cook, but I don’t like to cook for people I don’t know. You are Meng Dage’s friend, and so you are also my friend. That’s why I cook for you. I mainly just want to do business with you. I hope that, after you’ve eaten these dishes, you will be willing to buy my melons. These four cuisines, I can teach how to cook them to your chefs in the restaurant.”
Boss Chen looked at Meng Nan, Meng Nan nodded his head to him: “Even though Zhi’er likes to cook, she doesn’t want to be a chef, just listen to her.”
Boss Chen was still happy. There was no new dish in the restaurant for a long time now. According to his experience in business for many years, once these four menus were launched, they will surely attract many customers. He can almost foresee that their income will boom.
Boss Chen then said: “How much is your melon per pound?”
Bai Zhi replied: “To tell the truth, I don’t know how much is melon per pound. I’ve never sold melon before. We grew them ourselves, Boss Chen can set the price. You don’t necessarily need to give me a high price just because I’m Meng Dage’s friend. Friends are friends. Business is business.”
Boss Chen nodded his head again and again: “Well, Zhi’er, this really made me happy. So, I decided, every three days, I will send someone to the Huangtou Village to pick up the melons. You give us worth 100 pounds of melons each time, how about it?”
Bai Zhi saw about the layout of the restaurant when she went upstairs. Even if the restaurant was full every day, they don’t need too many potatoes.
“Does it really necessary to give you 100 pounds of melon each time? The melons cannot be stored for too long. Otherwise, it will germinate and turn green. If that happened, you can’t eat it anymore.”
Boss Chen replied: “You can rest assured, we can use them all.”
Meng Nan also opened his mouth: “Zhi’er, you don’t have to worry about it. Boss Chen is not only in charge of this restaurant. He managed half of the populations of the restaurants in Qingyuan Town.”
Bai Zhi’s eyes lit up: “So, I don’t need to find another restaurant?”
Boss Chen smiled and said: “Of course. Now, we can’t order much melon because the new menus haven’t officially launched. How many melons we will use each day? I really can’t tell that now. When the business boom, we will naturally order more melons. Even if you have acres of melons, I’m afraid it won’t be enough.”
The smile in Bai Zhi’s eyes became more visible. This event really saves her a lot of time. So, she laughed and said: “Boss Chen, I think you should wait for these four dishes to make a name in Qingyuan Town. You should limit the quantity first. The more things are rare and hard to get, the more it likely to caught people’s attention. At that time, won’t your income come rolling?”
Boss Chen couldn’t close his mouth in shock: “That is a good idea. Very good. I’ll do it like that.”
After a while, Bai Zhi went to the kitchen and carefully taught the four dishes to the chefs of the restaurant. When the chefs created a similar taste with the potatoes she brought, she then said goodbye to Boss Chen.
