    "Let's go right now. Old Zhang, are you going with us?"

    "No, my granddaughter will come to my house at night." Uncle Zhang urged, "Go quickly! Don't be late, everything will be sold out!"

    "It's so expensive, is it really so popular?"

    The two aunts bid farewell to Uncle Zhang, and walked suspiciously towards the small restaurant diagonally opposite.There is a maple tree planted in front of the museum. At this time, the tree is full of red leaves, which is very recognizable.

    The location of this tree is good or bad - it is very conspicuous, like a landmark, it can attract people's attention at once.However, it grows very luxuriantly, covering half of the shop signboard, so that people can only see the word "Guan" on the opposite side.

    After five o'clock, the restaurant has just opened, and the store is almost full of people.

    Aunt Wang was a little hesitant at first. She had seen the price of this restaurant before, and it's not that she couldn't afford it. It's just that for a small street shop, the price is too expensive!

    However, as soon as she stepped into the store, she was surrounded by a spicy aroma.

    "This is... the aroma of Mapo Tofu!"

    Aunt Wang's hometown eats spicy food, and mapo tofu is a must there.She has loved this dish since she was a child.

    She looked around, and many people had a small bowl of bright red dishes in front of them.

    Isn't it mapo tofu?

    "It's so fragrant." Aunt Liu sighed.

    She didn't have much appetite today, she just planned to have a bowl of porridge.But inexplicably, after smelling this fragrant, spicy and hot smell, she actually started to feel hungry in her stomach.

    The two looked towards the menu bar on the wall. There were several small wooden signs hanging on it, and the last one read:

    【Ma Po Tofu Set: 60 RMB [New Product] 】

    "60 yuan, it's about to catch up with the price of restaurants..." Aunt Wang muttered in a low voice, but she couldn't restrain herself at all when she smelled the scent around her, "I want a mapo tofu set meal."

    Aunt Liu ordered the same meal as her: "I want this too!"

    After ordering, they quickly walked to the only empty table left and sat down.

    Aunt Wang looked around and saw that there were quite a few diners in the store, all of whom were eating hard.

    She wondered: "At this price, there are quite a lot of people."

    Aunt Liu counted: "Boss Xu's place also sells steamed buns. Ten buns at his place cost 30 yuan, which is twice as expensive here!"

    The two didn't sigh for a long time, and Jiang Ci brought up the mapo tofu set meal.

    Aunt Wang shut up in amazement.

    Mapo tofu seems to have just been cooked. In the palm-sized dark brown pottery bowl, the rich and bright red soup is still bubbling with small bubbles. The gas squeezes the soft and tender tofu to bounce slightly, reflecting the light.Rolled over the tofu, oily and moving.

    The tofu is wrapped in gravy, sprinkled with pepper noodles and shallots, and only faintly white.Between the crowded tofu, there is also fried minced beef that is crispy and delicious at first sight.

    Next to the tofu was a bowl of clean white rice and a small white porcelain plate, which contained a few small cabbages, which were emerald green and attractive.

    Aunt Wang pursed her lips and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

    With just one glance, she could already imagine the deliciousness of this plate of tofu!

    After all, she is an expert in eating mapo tofu!

    Aunt Liu knew her hometown, so she asked, "Wang Lan, how does this mapo tofu look to you? Is it authentic?"

    Aunt Wang thought about it and said: "It's hard to say whether it's authentic or not. But this little boss does have two brushes!"

    She observed the tofu in the bowl, paused, and continued: "Is the mapo tofu well done, and how skillful the cook is? In fact, you can tell the general idea from the sauce at first glance."

    Aunt Liu: "What do you think?"

    Aunt Wang: "If the Gorgon juice is thickened, the tofu will look clean, without color or taste, but if the Gorgon juice is thickened, it will condense into lumps, which is not good-looking and tastes too good.Heavy."

    Aunt Wang picked up the chopsticks and carefully picked up a piece of tender tofu.She didn't dare to use force, she could vaguely feel the weight of the sharp tofu on the chopsticks.

    I saw the tofu rising tremblingly into the air, covered with bright red and oily gravy, with shallots and minced beef on the gravy.

    A hot white steam came out from its body.

    The eyes of the two aunts are straight!

    "Try it quickly!" Aunt Liu said quickly.

    Aunt Wang: "Yes!"

    The set meal comes with a porcelain spoon.The two grabbed the porcelain spoons, scooped up mapo tofu from their respective bowls, and poured them on the rice.The soup immediately seeped into the gaps of the white rice, ruddy and delicious.

    After eating it in one bite, it was numb first, and the smell of numb went straight to the sky, and even the nose was breathless!

    No matter how fragrant, the tofu is soft and tender, and the teeth can hardly feel any resistance. After chewing it lightly, the strong fragrance that penetrates into the center of the tofu fills the entire mouth...

    Then there is the spicy oil, with star anise, cinnamon, and sea cape, all kinds of aniseed, spicy oil with rich taste, which makes people's eyes burn and they want to cry.

    In addition, the minced beef after stir-frying is crispy and salty, which enriches the taste of the whole dish, and the hot one just out of the pot exudes the taste of the whole dish to the extreme!

    Aunt Liu eats "hassing and sizzling", and can enjoy this delicious and spicy taste when paired with white rice.

    In contrast, Aunt Wang is much more accepting of spicy flavors. This dish is actually a level of spiciness that most ordinary people can accept.The flavors are completely absorbed by the piping hot and tender white tofu, magically unified together.

    Aunt Wang ate so much that her whole body was warm, and she was very ironed.

    "It's so delicious..."

    "It's better than the mapo tofu in my hometown, it's amazing!"

    "Spicy, hot, it tastes like home..."

    Aunt Wang was stunned for a moment, how could someone speak out what was in her heart?

    And this has a voiceover?

    She turned her head in a daze, and saw that the young man at the next table was sweating from eating, his forehead was shiny, and he was shaking his head and sighing.

    Aunt Wang was sweating. Fortunately, she didn't really lose her mind completely.It would be a shame if he ate like him and talked to himself so ecstatically!

    After eating and drinking enough, the two aunts leaned back in their chairs contentedly, concentrating on the food just now.

    Aunt Wang's thoughts have completely changed: "Hey, don't talk about it. This girl's craftsmanship is so good, Boss Xu really has a sense of crisis."

    Aunt Liu nodded again and again: "Isn't it?"

    ...

    On the other side, Uncle Zhang and the old lady greeted their little granddaughter with a happy smile.

    "Grandpa and grandma, I'm here to see you!"

    "Come on, come on, why are you bringing so many things, big and small bags." Uncle Zhang blushed when he saw the gifts in his granddaughter's hands, he said a few reserved words at first, but couldn't bear his granddaughter's coquettish behavior, and took them all.

    "It's all my dad's money, just keep it!"

    Their granddaughter, Zhang Lingxi, is studying at the nearby University A, and would visit them every weekend.She is a trendy young man, and she seems to have been tossing about self-media recently, and Uncle Zhang can't understand it.

    However, he still likes the lively little granddaughter very much.

    After entering the house, Uncle Zhang found some snacks such as biscuits and candies in the kitchen, put them in front of Zhang Lingxi, and heard Zhang Lingxi talking about her recent life troubles.

    He didn't understand what a "blogger" was, but he did understand the words "food topic".

    "Are you looking for something delicious?" Uncle Zhang asked with a smile.

    "Yes." Zhang Lingxi pursed her mouth, and her expression was a little girlish. She has been doing video accounts with a few friends for the past six months, but the results have not been satisfactory. This trouble is not big or small.Her elder couldn't help but speak out.

    Uncle Zhang didn't think too much, but Feng Qianguan suddenly came to his mind.

    He smacked his lips and said, "I recently found a restaurant, which is very delicious! Do you want to go and have a look?"

    "Restaurant? Grandpa, you are going to a restaurant! Does grandma know?" Zhang Lingxi didn't take it seriously after hearing Uncle Zhang's recommendation, and joked casually.

    In order to create an account, she painstakingly went to many restaurants, almost all of the well-known restaurants with high Internet ratings in city A. After running, people also became numb—most delicacies, after all, are not justSo what happened?The raw materials are fresher, the method is more particular, and the taste is above average, so it can be praised as "delicious".

    There is no so-called magical food that can't stop eating and makes people forget their souls.Even many of the time-honored brands boast that they taste better than ordinary shops, making people willing to be repeat customers several times.

    However, to do this is actually pretty good.

    Zhang Lingxi said it casually, but Uncle Zhang became serious about this topic.

    Uncle Zhang: "Do you think your grandfather is a person who eats alone? Of course your grandma knows! We went to eat in a hurry yesterday."

    "Really?" Zhang Lingxi became a little curious. She knew that her grandma was not a person who liked to eat out, so she turned around and asked, "Grandma, did you go to a restaurant yesterday?"

    "Yeah, what's the matter, Xiaoxi?"

    Zhang Lingxi: "Is the restaurant delicious? I heard from my grandpa that it is very delicious."

    Uncle Zhang: "I'm not bragging! It's really delicious!"

    "Although your grandpa likes to talk nonsense, this restaurant is really good. Xiaoxi, do you want to eat? Grandma will take you there tomorrow."

    Zhang Lingxi was a little surprised when she got the answer. Her grandma is very picky, and she doesn't praise her easily.

    Zhang Lingxi: "No need, hey, I'll find a day to go by myself."

    Uncle Zhang hummed twice from his nose, and looked at his little granddaughter with a little complacency: "Do you believe it now?"

    "I believe it, I will try it one day this week." Zhang Lingxi said.

    Uncle Zhang reminded: "Remember, the store is on Anxu Road behind our community. It opens at 5 pm every day, and closes when it's sold out. If you go late, there will be nothing left!"

    Zhang Lingxi: "Okay, I understand."

    Two days later, Zhang Lingxi took some free time and rushed to the "Feng Qianguan" that Uncle Zhang called with two friends who were engaged in video accounts together.

    The one who went with her was a brother from the photography department named Li Fei, who was usually in charge of filming and editing, and a girl from the Chinese department named Tao Yan, who was a food lover and wrote excellent copywriting.

    In the small team, Zhang Lingxi is pretty and is usually in charge of appearances.

    On the way, Tao Yan searched for information on her mobile phone, full of suspicion: "Feng Qianguan? I didn't find this restaurant on the Dianping app at all, can it work?"

    Li Fei rubbed his chin: "Is the boss old and never engaged in online promotion? This is normal."

    Tao Yan struggled: "The boss is old? But don't everyone like beautiful and trendy food now? If this restaurant is ordinary, we can't make a gimmick when we shoot things."

    Li Fei said: "I think the gimmick is expensive. On Anxu Road, a small steamed bun sells for 80 yuan, how dare you! The beef noodle nearby is only 20 yuan, and the average price is about the same level."

    Zhang Lingxi called them to stop: "Okay, you guys stop for a while. My grandpa said it was delicious, can you have some confidence first?"

    "Okay, okay." The other two said quickly.

    Zhang Lingxi: "However, Brother Fei is right. If the boss sets the price blindly, we can make this video with the theme of mine clearance."

    Tao Yan said: "Let's go and have a look first, I haven't seen the real thing, and we can't discuss flowers if we discuss it."

    It was less than five o'clock when we arrived at Feng Qianguan, and the store hadn't opened yet, but there were already a few diners gathered at the door.

    The three of them were first attracted by the maple leaf at the door, and couldn't help taking out their phones to take a picture.It is autumn, the maple leaves are bright red like fire, and the whole red cloud is not half-colored, it is very beautiful.

    "Oh, this plaque is hidden behind the maple leaves, so beautiful."

    Li Fei said: "Xiaoxi, you said that you should communicate with the boss first, and then I will take out the camera after I am sure I can shoot, or let's eat today. If it is delicious, prepare it next time, and then shoot again."

    Before Zhang Lingxi could speak, Tao Yan said, "This meal costs tens or hundreds of dollars per person, and eating once a week is enough. If you can shoot the material today, let's do it today."

    Zhang Lingxi nodded and agreed: "Well, the funds are limited, we have to save the funds to explore other stores."

    Just as he was talking, there was a "puchi" laugh next to him.

    Zhang Lingxi looked back and found that a diner was looking at them. She raised her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

    "Sorry, I didn't mean to listen, ignore me haha." The diner smiled and waved his hand. He was standing next to these people, and it was hard not to hear their conversation.

    Zhang Lingxi was not angry, but just curious: "Is what we said just now funny?"

    "It's nothing." The diner scratched his chin with his fingers, and reminded him friendly, "Just... I'm a little worried about your funds."

    Zhang Lingxi: "?"

    ...

    At exactly five o'clock, Jiang Ci came out of the back kitchen and opened the store door.

    The diners gathered around the door of the store poured in.

    "Boss Jiang! Today I want a mapo tofu set meal!"

    "I want crab roe and shrimp wanton noodles!"

    "Boss, when will you make bald butter noodles again? I always dream of that taste, but I'm so hungry!"

    Jiang Ci hung a wooden sign saying "Open" next to the store door. The wooden sign was made into the shape of a maple leaf, which contrasted nicely with the maple tree in front of the store.

    There are many regular customers queuing at the door at this point on weekdays. Jiang Ci finished hanging up the sign, greeted people, and was about to go back to the store when she suddenly found a few strange faces at the door.

    Three young men with backpacks on their backs and student-like faces were staring at her blankly.

    One of the girls opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something.

    Jiang Ci: "..." Why didn't you come in?

    She rolled her eyes and smiled at them.

    Then, she saw that the faces of the three people turned red, and the girl who wanted to speak closed her mouth, as if she swallowed the words suddenly.

    Jiang Ci broke the deadlock: "Come in and try it? We served new dishes two days ago."

    "Hmm...um! We're here for dinner." Zhang Lingxi hurriedly said, scratching her hair embarrassingly to cover up her momentary loss of focus.

    The three of them followed Jiang Ci into the store and ordered all the dishes in the store, but what they were most looking forward to was the new mapo tofu set meal - all three of them love spicy food.Moreover, the aroma of mapo tofu is too overbearing!As soon as they entered the store, their faces became hot from the hot smell of numbness.

    After ordering, they found a seat near the window and sat down. Then they all took out their mobile phones and began to type wildly with their fingers.

    Zhang Lingxi: [I'll go, I'll go!The boss is so beautiful and temperamental!I heard diners call her "Boss Jiang", am I right?]

    Li Fei: [That's right, it seems to be really the boss.I used to think that the boss should be older. What gave me the illusion?]

    Tao Yan: [Who said just now that the store has no online promotion, and the boss is old?]

    Li Fei: [Sweating.jpg]

    Li Fei: [Probably because the bosses who make this kind of traditional food on TV programs generally have gray hair T T]

    Tao Yan: [I know what the gimmick is this time, it's not expensive, it's the beautiful boss!]

    Zhang Lingxi: [Just look at this face, as long as the economy allows, I can come every day.]

    The three of them were all face control, and they flicked a few pages in the small group before thinking about the business.

    Zhang Lingxi: "By the way, I have to ask the boss first if I can shoot."

    She looked around, took advantage of Jiang Ci's spare time when she came out of the back kitchen, and told her about her visit.

    "...Video number?" Jiang Ci has also searched for a lot of food-related information in this world on the Internet these days. Coupled with the memories left by her original body, she can understand this concept to a minimum.

    She hadn't considered doing online publicity at first, after all, she only relied on word-of-mouth in her previous life, and the threshold was almost broken.

    More importantly...she is really not familiar with the operation of electronic equipment!

    These twists and turns are also quite at a loss for network marketing.

    However, the girl in front of her had round, twinkling eyes, a very serious expression, and a slight flush on her cheeks.

    Probably because really like the food here!

    Jiang Ci smiled kindly, and she had no reason to refuse the diners' free and well-intentioned publicity.

    "Okay, you can take pictures. But don't disturb other customers, just take pictures of me if you want to take pictures."

    Zhang Lingxi felt a little dizzy when she was hit by the "bang" of happiness from the sky.The beautiful elder sister smiled at her... ah!She is so pretty!

    Moreover, he actually said that he could photograph her!

    Then she's going to take pictures unceremoniously!

    "Okay, okay! No problem! We won't disturb others." Zhang Lingxi nodded obediently and returned to her seat.

    The first thing to be served is the soup dumpling.

    The three gathered their minds together and quickly entered the working state.Li Fei held the camera in his hand and quickly took pictures of the material, while Zhang Lingxi and Tao Yan stared at the little buns in the bamboo cage, suppressing their appetite with difficulty, and hurriedly discussed the idea of shooting the video.

    Tao Yan said: "Small steamed buns, mapo tofu, all the dishes in this restaurant are traditional dishes? Why don't we just talk about classic beauties and the allusions of the dishes."

    Li Fei disagrees: "There are too many delicacies that make a fuss about 'tradition', and it's hard to stand out. The most important thing about food is its deliciousness."

    Tao Yan: "But how is the delicious food reflected in the video?"

    "How about highlighting your appearance?" Jiang Ci looked at the beautiful and exquisite soup dumplings, and couldn't help but say, "The maple tree at the entrance of the store here is beautiful, the dishes are beautiful, and the boss is also good-looking..."

    Quickly, several people finalized the idea of shooting, although their hearts have already started to fly - what else to shoot?

    What kind of work is discussed at this time, let's eat quickly!

    The scent is so depressing!

    Zhang Lingxi said: "Let's start filming tasting videos, I think of a good word."

    Brother photographer: "You just think it over? So soon?"

    "En." Zhang Lingxi nodded with confidence. Since she started the food column, she has already checked a lot of information, and she has all the information on these foods at her fingertips.She planned to briefly talk about the allusions of Guantang Xiaolong first, and then lead the topic to the boss and the beautiful decoration of the small shop.

    Zhang Lingxi didn't think deeply about it. After Li Fei started filming, she first gave an opening speech, then picked up a bun, and planned to try a couple of bites before speaking the next words.

    Zhang Lingxi poked a small hole in the dough with her chopsticks, and the slightly oily soup overflowed the spoon. She leaned over and took a sip of the soup.

    The plumpness and freshness of the autumn crab and the mellow aroma of the broth filled the mouth in an instant.

    The warm soup slides down the throat, but the taste it brings out makes people can't help...can't help...

    Zhang Lingxi closed her eyes.

    "...!"

    It's so delicious!!!

    The two teammates were watching Zhang Lingxi's performance outside the camera, and when they were waiting for her to speak the words that had been discussed next, they saw that her eyes were a little dazed, looking at the steamed bun in the spoon, looking at the camera, and then looking at the spoon.

    Tao Yan's heart skipped a beat.

    Forgot the word this guy!

    In terms of appearing on camera, Zhang Lingxi can be considered to be experienced in many battles. How have the two of them ever seen her in such a situation!

    Li Fei's filming has not stopped, anyway, it can be edited later.He just hinted frantically with his eyes: What's going on?Forgot the words??

    Zhang Lingxi was stunned for a moment, met her companion's eyes, and then stammered, "My God! It's so, so delicious!"

    She regained her composure, her cheeks blushed, and she didn't have time to think of words or explain to her teammates, so she ate the remaining Xiaolongbao in one gulp.

    Under the thin skin, the smooth fresh meat is wrapped with rich crab roe and tender and fresh crab meat.Teeth bite open the meat filling, and the soup hidden inside slowly drips out, with a little bit of mellow and yellowish crab oil...

    Zhang Lingxi has forgotten all about the origin and allusion of the soup dumpling and the beautiful boss.

    At this moment, she was immersed in pure deliciousness.

    "Xiaoxi, put it away, put it away, put it away. It's too exaggerated, we're not here to shoot funny videos." Tao Yan couldn't help shaking her palm in front of Zhang Lingxi, but Zhang Lingxi didn't realize it, and just quickly caught another oneFill soup with small cages.

    "?" What are you doing.

    Seeing her like this, the other two simply picked up a soup-filled steamer and put them in their mouths suspiciously.

    The next moment, both of them showed shocked expressions, their eyes widened.

    Li Fei couldn't even hold the camera steady, and the picture captured by the lens shook wildly, which strongly reflected the shaking mood of the camera owner.

    Mom!How can there be such Xiaolongbao in this world!!

    Two steamers, twelve steamed buns, three people divided up in less than ten minutes.

    The camera has been placed on the side of the dining table by Li Fei.

    Zhang Lingxi only remembered to shoot at this time, she looked at the camera in a daze and said, "That's it, I'm done eating... Well, it's really delicious!"

    After a pause of two seconds, Zhang Lingxi said, "Next, let's try crab roe and shrimp wonton noodles."

    After she finished speaking, Li Fei picked up the camera and took pictures casually. In fact, they had basically given up filming at this time—is it funny?The situation where the three of them ate just now must have looked insane.

    I guess I'll have to come again next time.

    Li Fei put down the camera.

    Three lines of sight collided in the air, and several hands stretched out to the steamed wonton noodles in an instant.Zhang Lingxi took the small bowl that came in advance, and managed to grab a small ball of noodles and two wontons under the attack of the other two pairs of chopsticks.

    The Zhusheng noodles are hung on the porcelain chopsticks. The surface is golden yellow, with a naturally curved curvature. The surface is wrapped in a long-simmered broth. When you smell it closely, you can smell a fresh and attractive seafood.

    Put it in your mouth, the umami flavor concentrated in the broth suddenly burst out, the deliciousness of dried shrimp roe, the salty aroma of dried fish from the earth, and the richness and mellowness brought by pork bones, all wrapped in fragrant and refreshing noodles...

    Pick up another piece of wonton, and the smooth dough will soften in your mouth with a light bite. Then, the fat and thin, delicious and tender meat inside touches the tongue, bringing a new round of delicious taste.

    "..."

    "..."

    "...!!!"

    Tao Yan is from the south. After eating this taste, she couldn't help but say, "Mom! I declare that this is the Qingmian of my dreams!"

    Li Fei: "I'm in a coma, what are the shops we visited before?"

    Zhang Lingxi: "If my grandpa hadn't recommended you to come... At this time, I would like to say, thank you, grandpa!"

    The last thing to come up is the mapo tofu with the most rampant aroma.

    Jiang Ci knew that they ordered the same dishes, so she wanted to try them all, so she simply added two servings of rice to the set meal to make it easier for them to share.

    The soft and tender tofu is caught on the tip of the chopsticks, oily, bright red, and trembling.

    Green chopped green onions and fresh pepper powder are the finishing touches wrapped in the sauce.

    Pair it with white rice and eat it in one bite. It is spicy, delicious and delicious.

    Half an hour later, the three of them rubbed their bellies contentedly and leaned on the back of the chair.

    After the three of them ate their first cage of steamed buns, their filming was paralyzed.Everything happened as out of control after opening a novel in study.

    Zhang Lingxi: "Am I hallucinating? I feel like I'm in heaven!"

    Tao Yan ate until she burst into tears. She sniffled and said, "Really...this tofu is poisonous! I don't eat spicy food. It's so exciting, but I still want to eat it!"

    Li Fei: "I like the wonton noodles the most. If only the wonton noodles in the canteen can be so delicious..."

    Zhang Lingxi: "I'm afraid you are thinking about farting."

    Li Fei: "Now I can understand why the price is set at this price-this taste is clearly different from other stores!"

    Tao Yan: "Yes, don't say, crab powder, broth, these ingredients are real."

    Zhang Lingxi licked her lips: "I can eat it. The red oil of this mapo tofu is also very particular. It's not that ordinary spicy, it's that kind, it's that kind..."

    Tao Yan: "Spicy with rich layers! Spicy with colorful colors!"

    Zhang Lingxi: "Yes, yes, yes!"

    The three of them rubbed their stomachs regardless of their appearance, and then they recovered before thinking about the business.

    The boss said to shoot them today, but there will be no such good thing next time!Li Fei cheered up quickly, and after obtaining Jiang Ci's consent, he simply took a few shots of her working.

    Zhang Lingxi is so beautiful that she is so beautiful, her mind is full of ideas, and she is full of rainbow farts about food.

    At this time, the thinking of the three of them on video editing has completely changed.

    Allusions, history, decoration atmosphere, and beautiful boss are not unimportant, but that’s not the point—food videos, of course, the most important thing is to eat!!

    As far as Feng Qianguan's dishes are concerned, she can blow up ten thousand words without repeating the same!

    Before leaving, Zhang Lingxi struggled for a while, and couldn't help but said to Jiang Ci: "Boss Jiang, why didn't your store be advertised on the Internet? If grandpa hadn't told me, I wouldn't even know there is such a delicious restaurant!"

    Jiang Ci was silent.

    At present, diners in the store are attracted by word of mouth, or by stepping into the store by chance.

    After all, it is one thing to praise the delicious food in a restaurant, but another thing to praise it on an online public platform. Many diners do not have the habit of speaking on the Internet.

    Most of the diners who come to eat, at most, recommend it wildly in the private range. The information about Feng Qianguan has not been widely spread yet.

    It's not that she doesn't want to. Of course, the more diners, the better.

    Jiang Ci: "How to promote it?"

    Zhang Lingxi: "...!" Dare I really don't know?

    The three of them looked at each other, and in an instant, the huge amount of information in their eyes was transmitted crazily.

    They all came up with an idea at the same time: The boss looks so young, but his craftsmanship seems to be as exquisite as he has practiced for more than ten years. Every move on his body is quite elegant, and he has the temperament of a classical beauty.

    And... she seems to be quite unfamiliar with the Internet!

    It's like learning to cook since childhood, the successor of family learning, not following the path of others.

    "It is to promote your delicacies on platforms such as X Zhongdian, Food Network, etc." Zhang Lingxi pointed on the phone and explained to Jiang Ci, but she looked at Jiang Ci's slightly bewildered expression and hesitated for a moment.Simply say: "Boss Jiang, if you don't mind, add a friend, and I will tell you in detail when you are free!"

    "Thank you so much!" Jiang Ci smiled and accepted her kindness.

    The young people in front of them seemed to understand it very well.

    Zhang Lingxi added Jiang Ci's friend, and the corners of her mouth could not be suppressed.After watching Jiang Ci return to the back kitchen, the three walked out of the store reluctantly.

    ...

    In the back kitchen, Jiang Ci gently pushed the tofu in the pot with a spoon.

    Unlike crabmeat dumplings and wonton noodles, Mapo Tofu can be cooked in a large pot even if the ingredients are prepared in advance, but it still has to be cooked fresh!

    In particular, in order for the sauce in Mapo Tofu to reach a suitable concentration and fully lock in the aroma, numbness, and spiciness, she had to weigh the time to thicken three sauces.

    Every time you tick, you have to shake the pot.

    After half a day, Jiang Ci felt that both arms were starting to be numb... Sure enough, the exercise was not up to the mark!

    But thinking of the painful pull-ups, and the encouraging eyes of the old man in the community in the morning, Jiang Ciren became numb again.

    "..."

    It is still necessary to quickly recruit suitable people. Except for the most important seasoning, many tasks can be done very well after training.

    If she is sure of her character, it is not impossible to accept her as an apprentice, so that she can serve more diners and develop more new dishes!

    After the third sauce was finished, Jiang Ci waited for a while, and a pot of hot mapo tofu came out of the oven.

    She divided the cooked mapo tofu into ceramic bowls, and when she took it out, she happened to meet a familiar face.

    Jiang Ci rolled her eyes: "Hello."

    Ye Hongliang said enthusiastically: "Boss Jiang! Is there a new dish today? I'll bring a few colleagues to try something new, welcome!"

    "How could it not be welcome?" Jiang Ci smiled, she wanted to thank the kind person who was brave enough last night, but when she came to her senses, he had already disappeared.

    Jiang Ci looked behind Ye Hongliang. However, she didn't see any familiar figures. Instead, she saw a few thick, stern men with thick flesh on their faces.

    Jiang Ci: "...???"

    What do you do?Are all colleagues this creepy??

    She stabilized her expression and said, "I'll serve the food first, you take your order."

    Ye Hongliang: "Okay, you are busy."

    After Ye Hongliang finished eating, Jiang Ci's work was almost too busy, and the two of them could talk a few words.

    Ye Hongliang: "Oh! Boss Jiang! This mapo tofu is so, so delicious!"

    Jiang Ci: "Thank you. Didn't your boss come today? I also want to thank him for his help yesterday."

    Ye Hongliang: "He has an important meeting today. Oh, no thanks. By the way, I'll pack another dinner for him, a small steamed crab meat dumpling, and a shrimp wonton noodle."

    Jiang Ci: "OK."

    When Ye Hongliang took the thermos bag, he unexpectedly found that in addition to the two meals he ordered, there was also a small box, which contained the mapo tofu that he had eaten so much that his face turned red just now.

    Ye Hongliang: "This is?"

    "Gift." Jiang Ci smiled, "Ask him to try new dishes."

    It can be regarded as a little bit of her heart.

    ...

    half an hour later.

    "Boss, let's eat something first, I packed Feng Qianguan's stuff back!"

    Ye Hongliang spread out the food boxes and placed them on the table. Thanks to the thermal bag, the packed food was still steaming hot, even the most "hot" mapo tofu did not lose its temperature.

    Qi Yan just finished the meeting and was still reading the documents.According to his usual habits, it is difficult to let go of the file after reading half of it, but he moved the tip of his ear, and after hearing the key words, he involuntarily put down the folder in his hand.

    Feng Qianguan is delicious.

    Out of this world delicious.

    This equation has been established in his mind.

    Qi Yan stood up and walked to the table.His taste is not heavy, and the soup dumplings and wonton noodles last time are very suitable for him.Qi Yan glanced over, and when he saw a bright red and oily dish, he paused suddenly.

    He could already smell the spicy smell.

    But...he doesn't eat spicy food.

    Qi Yan: "Why did you order this?"

    "This is from Boss Jiang. She has a new dish in her shop today, and I want to give you a taste." Ye Hongliang seemed to be regretful but said happily, "Boss, if you don't want to eat it, I'll take it away."

    Ye Hongliang swallowed calmly.He knew Qi Yan's taste, but at that time, Boss Jiang had packed all his things, and he wanted it so much that he couldn't refuse... right?

    hey-hey.

    He can eat again!

    However, Qi Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "There's no need to withdraw."

    Ye Hongliang: "Huh?"

    "Since it's a new dish, I'll try it." Qi Yan lowered his eyes slightly, took the chopsticks, and sat down at the table.

    This is a new dish launched by Jiang Ci, which must have gathered a lot of her energy and heart, and it was specially given to her to taste...

    Qi Yan: "Pour me a glass of ice water."

    "Okay." Ye Hongliang stared dejectedly at the Mapo Tofu which was walking away from him.

    How did you eat it?Isn't it spicy?

    Ye Hongliang still remembers that when he went to eat steak, he even had to know the spiciness of the black pepper sauce in the restaurant in advance, and Qi Yan would not touch red oil hot pot and the like.

    He filled a glass of ice water in front of the water dispenser, turned around and walked back to the office, and saw Qi Yan holding the chopsticks with his right hand and propping his forehead with his left hand, the veins on his hands were protruding, his black hair was messy and scattered, covering his eyebrows.

    There was a subtle sense of weakness all over his body.

    Ye Hongliang: "Boss! What's wrong with you?"

    Qi Yan raised his head, his eyes were bloodshot, with a moist glint, and the end of his eyes was also red, but his eyes were a bit cold and sharp.

    The thin lips were much redder than usual, and they were pursed tightly.

    ...is spicy.

    Qi Yan didn't speak, and pointed to the ice water in Ye Hongliang's hand.

    Ye Hongliang understood, and quickly handed over the water glass: "Boss, hurry up and drink."

    After hesitating for a while, Ye Hongliang was determined: "Boss, I've tried the new dishes, or I'll remove them for you..."

    "No need."

    Decisive.

    Qi Yan: "I... can."
