Chapter 39(1/2)
Everyone was talking, but their voices were not low, for fear that Zhao Youquan wouldn't hear.
This made Zhao Youquan very angry.
I have been in charge of Zuixianju for so long, and there has been one mistake there.
He immediately made a decision and said.
"Go and buy the ingredients again. I'll study it again. I don't believe it anymore. I still can't make this dish."
The people below had grimaces on their faces after hearing this, and no one was willing to do this.
Xu Yuan took the opportunity to stand up and said.
"Master, why don't you go tomorrow?"
"You see, it's already this time. Going to the fish market is nothing new anymore."
Zhao Youquan glared at him.
"Just go if you are told. Where does all this nonsense come from."
Xu Yuan's head shrank when he said this, and the people around him didn't dare to answer the question, feeling a little sympathy for Xu Yuan in their hearts.
Being Zhao Youquan's apprentice is a sin, and you have to be scolded and run errands.
Xu Yuan quickly said with a smile.
"Okay, Master, I'll be there right away."
"I'm going to ask the farmers around me if they have any fresh products."
After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
In the eyes of others, it seemed as if he was afraid that Zhao Youquan would continue to scold him, but no one saw the successful smile on his face.
He was deliberately provoked and then driven out to inform Cyclamen.
What Xu Yuan didn't know was that as soon as he left, Ye Fei came over.
In Zuixianju, Zhao Youquan was still looking at the plate of food in a daze.
He couldn't figure out which step he made wrong to make it taste so strange.
At this moment, a cook ran in from the door and said.
"Master Zhao, someone is looking for you outside."
Zhao Youquan was studying the reason and looked impatient after being interrupted.
"Who didn't see that I was busy?"
As he spoke, he walked out.
As soon as he went out, he saw Ye Fei looking at him with a smile on his face.
"Master Zhao, long time no see."
Zhao Youquan curled his lips and said angrily.
"I just saw you yesterday."
The new dish was messed up, and he was in no mood to laugh.
"Where's that girl of yours? Why didn't she come with you?"
Seeing Ye Fei pushing a cart alone, he asked curiously.
In other words, An An's soft and cute female doll looks cute.
"At home, my wife is planning to make clothes for her, and I am thinking about buying a pair of shoes for my child. I am going to make money now."
"What's wrong with you? You look so bitter and resentful."
Zhao Youquan felt very depressed, and when he saw that Ye Fei was not as upset as those brats, he spoke out all at once.
"Don't mention it, the new dishes I made recently were a bit unsatisfactory."
Hearing that Zhao Youquan was researching new dishes, Ye Fei's face showed an expression of surprise, which was exactly what he heard before.
"What's the new dish? Let me try it."
Zhao Youquan glanced at him and sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, it's so painful that I can't even eat it. It's all in vain. I went to the fish market early in the morning to buy it."
Ye Fei said with a smile.
"Brother, you just happened to bump into me. I have aquatic products here. Why don't you take a look?"
Ye Fei said as he opened the lid of the bucket, eels as thick as a child's wrist were crowded inside.
Zhao Youquan went up to take a look, but it was not the eel that he had spent a lot of effort to buy.
What's in this bucket is even better than what he picked.
There was no time to be happy, Zhao Youquan looked at Ye Fei with confusion.
"You kid, why do you show up every time something happens to me?"
"Tell me, did you do it on purpose?"
Ye Fei waved his hand and said.
"How can I have such great ability? It's just good luck."
"The children in the village caught so many and asked me if they could sell them. Why don't I give it a try?"
Seeing the sincerity in Ye Fei's eyes, Zhao Youquan didn't care anymore.
"Then how do you plan to sell it?"
"I fished these from the fields. It took a lot of effort and they are quite big."
"I plan to ask for one yuan and three pounds, what do you think?"
The price is a bit more expensive than pork.
The key is how it tastes.
Eels and soft-shelled turtles are troublesome and laborious to handle, so only people in the county eat them, but no one cares about them in the countryside.
Zhao Youquan himself went to the fish market in the morning, and the prices sold there were one yuan and a half per catty, which were far smaller than those of Ye Fei.
Thinking about it this way, Ye Fei proposed this price just for the sake of his face.
Zhao Youquan had a smile on his face.
"You guys have a good way of doing business. You are very practical."
"However, you still have to wait for me to try to see if your product can work."
Ye Fei patted his chest and expressed.
"No problem, just try it."
He reached out and picked up two pieces from the bucket and handed them to him.
"Well, I won't count these two items as your money."
"Look at this head, it definitely weighs two or three pounds in total."
Zhao Youquan was not polite to him, took it and walked aside to take out the knife, and handled it neatly.
In just a moment, he had taken care of the eels and soft-shell turtles.
Everyone in the kitchen stood around and watched. The dish Zhao Youquan cooked before was so bitter that it would be different if he tried it over again.
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhao Youshen, even Ye Fei forgot about it.
After a while of stir-frying, the whole kitchen was filled with aroma.
Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads, sighing that he was indeed a chef who was in charge of the dishes. This action was done in one go.
But after the food came out of the pot, everyone was stunned and no one dared to step forward to try it.
Zhao Youquan couldn't hide the look of disappointment on his face.
This is when Ye Fei stepped forward and expressed that he wanted to give it a try.
"This is the first time I've tasted Master Zhao's cooking. I haven't even eaten at Zuixianju before, and I ate the dishes cooked by Master Zhao."
Ye Fei had a smile on his face, and Zhao Youquan's depression dissipated.
A plate full of dishes was brought up. Ye Fei picked up his chopsticks, took a bite, put it into his mouth under everyone's teasing eyes, and began to taste it.
Everyone held their breath, looking forward to Ye Fei's next expression.
With one bite, the tenderness of the eel melts in your mouth, without any fishy smell at all.
"Delicious."
Ye Fei said with satisfaction.
People around him didn't believe him when they saw him like this, thinking he was lying because all they had tasted before were bitter.
