Chapter Eighteen Unexpected Harvest

Master Ding, who was in a happy mood, told Sheng Zhiyao to call him Grandpa Ding, and she readily agreed. After all, Master Ding was indeed not much different in age from the old Marquis.

"Grandpa Ding, has the business of Juxianlou opposite been so good?"

"No, the business of the stores we opened back then was almost the same. But since Juxianlou changed its owner and chef a few years ago, the business has become better and better. Of course, the food tastes good too." Mr. Ding sighed.

His tone was a little helpless.

"Grandpa Ding, don't sigh. We will roll out this dish at noon today. I believe there will be results in the afternoon."

Mr. Ding nodded. Sheng Zhiyao was full of confidence and she had confidence in her dishes.

It was lunch time, and there were a lot of customers in the restaurant. The waiter tried to recommend today's new dishes to every customer, but no one was willing to try it.

At this time, there was a noise in the street, and the waiter at Juxian Building opposite seemed to be beating someone: "If you don't look at where this place is, you come to Juxian Building to find trouble. You are tired of living, old man."

"The food just now was not delicious, why can't you tell the truth?" The old man was sitting on the ground in ragged clothes, with blood bleeding from his head.

"Damn, you're worthy of it?" The waiter tried to continue the fight, but Sheng Zhiyao stood in front of the old man.

"If you beat me, old man, do you still deserve to be a human being?"

"Hey! It's you again, little bastard. You two must not be in the same group." The waiter recognized Sheng Zhiyao and became very angry. It was not because she was not scolded by Miss Jiang yesterday.

The waiter picked up the guy and was about to hit Sheng Zhiyao with him. At this time, Meier pushed the waiter to the ground with a backhand.

"Okay, I brought helpers here today. Let's see how I deal with you. Come on guys." The waiter called on the people in the store to come up together, but Sheng Zhiyao slowly helped the old man up and faced him.

Walk to Qingfeng Tower.

"Grandpa, sit down first. I'll show you the wounds on your head." Sheng Zhiyao pulled out the bench and asked the old man to sit down. She then carefully checked the old man's head and found that it was just some skin injuries, so he asked Zhu'er to get a beating.

Some water for cleaning.

"Thank you girl."

"Grandpa, there is no need to say thank you. Although there are some skin wounds on this head, they still need to be disinfected. Please wait a moment." Sheng Zhiyao ran to the kitchen and took out some Yunnan Baiyao and the wound from the bracelet where no one could see it.

She posted it, then heated up the Jinhua ham stewed cabbage she had just made and brought it out.

"Grandpa, please don't move. I'll put some medicine on your wound."

"good."

Sheng Zhiyao poured some Yunnan Baiyao onto the wound, and the blood on the wound solidified immediately. She took out a band-aid and put it on carefully.

"Grandpa, don't get water on the wound these days. When you get up tomorrow, pour some Yunnan Baiyao on the wound and replace it with a band-aid. Do you understand?" Sheng Zhiyao patiently explained to the old man, and also told the old man how to use these things. Finally,

She handed the cabbage soup to the old man's hand.

"You haven't eaten yet? You need to rest your stomach first, and I'll prepare something for you."

"Thank you very much, girl. I don't need any food. Just have some soup." The old man was a little short of money. He had just been robbed of all his money by the waiter at Juxian Building.

Sheng Zhiyao seemed to have figured out what he was thinking, so she smiled and said, "Grandpa will help me taste the dishes without paying for it."

She ran to the kitchen again without waiting for the old man's consent. When she saw Master Ding busy, she ran to another stove and asked Zhu'er to light a fire.

Sheng Zhiyao secretly took out two preserved eggs from the space, borrowed some lean meat and rice from Master Ding, and began to prepare the dishes she was going to make.

After Master Ding finished his work, he happened to see Sheng Zhiyao taking out another ingredient that he had never seen before, so he came over curiously.

"Girl, what is this?"

Sheng Zhiyao answered him while handling the ingredients: "This is called preserved egg, also known as preserved egg. It is made from fresh duck eggs. It doesn't smell very good, but tastes special."

After hearing her explanation, Master Ding became interested in the dark preserved eggs: "Bring me a bowl later."

"Yes, Grandpa Ding." Sheng Zhiyao looked at Master Ding who was leaving and smiled, then continued to stir her porridge: "That's enough, Zhu'er is going to get a bowl."

"Yes, miss."

Sheng Zhiyao took out two bowls of porridge and put them on the tray. She wiped her hands, picked up the tray and walked outside, leaving Zhu'er to clean up the rest.

As soon as she reached the door, the waiter ran over in a hurry and almost missed her: "Brother, why are you running so fast?"

The waiter looked at her happily and said, "Girl, the customers outside are clamoring for the dish you cooked."

Sheng Zhiyao was a little surprised. With so little effort in cooking, the trend changed: "What's going on?"

The waiter swallowed his saliva and continued: "It's the soup you just gave to the old man. The old man praised it full of praise, and the fragrance made the customers who just came in want to try it."

Sheng Zhiyao smiled softly and nodded in understanding. When the waiter saw that she was silent, he quickly ran towards the kitchen.

She walked to the old man with the tray and said, "Grandpa, please have some."

The old man looked at the crystal clear black unknown substance in the bowl and was very curious. Without saying anything, he picked up the spoon next to him and took a spoonful of it and put it in his mouth. The guests around him also cast their gazes.

The old man finished one bite after another, and the small rice bowl was completely eaten up in a short time. The old man put down the bowl and spoon and praised: "This black stuff has a very strange taste, but this porridge tastes really good."

"As long as grandpa likes it."

"May I ask, girl, what is this crystal clear black substance?"

"This is called preserved egg. It nourishes yin and moisturizes the lungs, stops bleeding and cools blood, and has rescue effects. It can also remove heat toxins from the blood and is good for your wounds. However, you should not eat too many preserved eggs."

Listening to her explanation, the old man was surprised to find that the little kid in front of him, who was at most five or six years old, knew so much. Not only could he make these delicacies, but he could also give different foods based on the body of the eater.

"Did you also make the Jinhua ham and Chinese cabbage stew just now?"

"Yes, grandpa, what do you think it tastes like?"

The old man recalled that the soup just now was so delicious: "It's fresh, really fresh. The saltiness of the meat and the sweetness of the cabbage are just right."

"Haha! It seems that grandpa is still a glutton." Sheng Zhiyao's lips almost reached her ears when she heard the old man's praise.

Some customers nearby couldn't sit still and wanted to try it: "Waiter, why hasn't my cabbage soup come yet? Do you have this porridge? Give us some, too."

"Yes, there are also ours."

"We smelled the aroma of the soup as soon as we came in. Isn't the shopkeeper gone?" Guests at other tables began to wonder about the bowl of porridge after hearing the conversation between Sheng Zhiyao and the old man.

"Guests, please be patient. The kitchen is already cooking it and it will be delivered to you soon." The shopkeeper didn't expect that the dish that no one wanted to eat just now would be so popular now.

Sheng Zhiyao, also known as Hot Black Iron, said to the guests sitting here: "Today's noon, this Jinhua ham stewed cabbage dish is given to you by the shopkeeper to try. If it tastes good, please bring more people to support it. As for this porridge, it will be released tomorrow."

There will be, so everyone will come often in the future."

After saying this, the shopkeeper became anxious, but Sheng Zhiyao became happy.

"Shopkeeper, don't worry, you will make back your capital with interest in the evening." After hearing Sheng Zhiyao's words, the shopkeeper felt relieved.

Sure enough, after the dish was served, the guests were full of praises. The guests who had previously rejected the waiter's recommendation ordered this dish. Even the customers who walked out were talking about the deliciousness of this dish. It seemed that this dish was a successful opening.

After entering the market, business must be very hot tonight.

"Girl, thank you for your hospitality. It's time for me to go back."

"Grandpa is leaving? Can you eat well?"

"Very good, I'll come and try your new dishes another day."

"No problem, let's go slowly, grandpa." Sheng Zhiyao sent the old man off and walked back to the store. At this time, Master Ding also finished his work in the kitchen and came to the front of the hall.

"Girl, are you going to sell me your old eggs?"

"Yes, yes, but... I can't give you the recipe this time."

"Haha~ OK, then you make a price."

"Grandpa Ding is so cheerful. It's not convenient for me as a child to go out at home at night. I'll ask someone to send you the preserved eggs and the recipe later."

"Okay, come often." Master Ding stopped talking. Although the business at noon did not make much money, there were many more people than usual. If it is still like noon at night, he probably needs to prepare more ingredients. He is smiling.

He walked towards the kitchen.

Sheng Zhiyao was also in a happy mood and headed home with her maid. A big event was accomplished today. She had already negotiated a contract with Qingfeng Tower. It would depend on how the business was going at night. She also had ready-made ingredients directly from the bracelet.

Just take it out and don't worry about someone learning it.
