Chapter 237 What Delicious Food Did You Bring?
Immediately, Meng Nan brought Bai Zhi and Hu Feng to the largest restaurant in the city, where the diners lived.
Meng Nan's figure just appeared at the door of the diners' residence, and the shopkeeper sitting behind the counter hurriedly greeted him: "Mr. Meng, you haven't been here for a long time." The shopkeeper was talking and his eyes fell on Meng Nan. Behind him, he secretly looked at the people Meng Nan brought today.
Meng Nan whispered, "Is Boss Chen here?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly nodded: "I'm here, I haven't been here for a few days, so I'm here today. I'm looking at the account book in the account room upstairs. I'll call you right away."
The restaurant is not an ordinary restaurant. It is the property of the richest man in Kyoto. Boss Chen is only the person in charge, not the real boss.
The shopkeeper's courtesy towards Meng Nan was not because he was the judge of Qingyuan Town. Even if the magistrate came, he might not be able to receive such a warm greeting.
Just because Meng Nan is the son of the Meng family in Kyoto, this status is many times more noble than that of the general sentence.
Boss Chen is a middle-aged man in his early 40s. Xu is because the restaurant has enough oil and water. Just in his early 40s, he has a fat body like a fat pig, and it is difficult for him to walk.
"Mr. Meng, you are here. I heard that you are leaving Qingyuan Town in two days. I was thinking of setting up a feast for you. You are here."
Meng Nan laughed loudly, "It seems that Boss Chen and I really have a good understanding of each other, just click on it!"
Boss Chen smiled very happily, not the polite and hypocritical smirk, but rather sincere. It seems that the relationship with Meng Nan is not limited to the owner of the store, but is as simple as that with the diners.
Meng Nan turned sideways and introduced to Boss Chen: "This is Bai Zhi, my friend, I brought her here to find you today, you will have a good time."
When Boss Chen heard that he had a good taste, he immediately said with a wide-eyed smile, "I love food the most, but what delicious food did you bring?"
Bai Zhi said: "Boss Chen, that's the case. I brought my own gourds today, and I'll make two dishes with the gourds for you to try."
As soon as Boss Chen heard it was a melon, he immediately frowned: "A melon? This thing has been eaten to death, how dare you grow it?"
Bai Zhi smiled and said: "Tugua is a very good thing, I have also heard about eating dead people, that's because they eat it wrongly, they ate the soil that has been spoiled, so they are poisoned. It's fresh enough, there is no poisoning, and besides, only a few people were poisoned by eating melons at the beginning, so many people eat it and it's fine, doesn't that explain the problem?"
Boss Chen thought about it, and yes, the diners also sold melons at the time. He also ate some of them himself. Both the diners and the staff in the store ate them. There was never an accident. Later, I heard that someone was poisoned by eating the melons. He was also puzzled.
Bai Zhi said to Meng Nan: "Brother Meng, you will tell Boss Chen what I told you last time about why eating melon is poisonous. I will go to the kitchen to cook first."
Boss Chen hurriedly asked the shopkeeper to lead her there, and then went to the upstairs private room with Meng Nan, Jin Xiao'an and Hu Feng.
It wasn't dinner time yet, there were no guests in the restaurant, the people in the kitchen were chopping vegetables, and the stove was empty.
She took a few zucchini and washed them, one cut into hob blocks, one shredded, and one cubed.
There are a lot of materials in the kitchen, the meat is rich, and there are materials for cooking.
There are many people working in the kitchen, those who choose and wash vegetables, those who cut vegetables and meat, and the chef sits at the door chatting.
The shopkeeper personally brought people to the kitchen to cook. Although the big guy pretended not to care, he couldn't help but observe secretly.
