Stall setting starts from Malatang

108 Chapter 108, Invincible Devil Pepper

Ever since Lin Xiaojian got this [Zhutian Gourmet System], he was not afraid of anything. The only thing he was afraid of was that the customers wanted it to be extra spicy.

His current chili noodles are all ordinary ones bought in the vegetable market, not even heavy spicy ones, let alone super spicy ones, at most they can be adjusted to make them spicy.When a customer asked about it, he said that the spiciest dish he had was medium spicy.

But after all, with the signboard of Malatang, it is not spicy enough, and I always feel a little guilty, as if it is not very authentic.

If it is a stall owner who has been tempered into old fritters, he will not pay attention to the special requests of individual customers, love to eat, and don't eat.After all, Lin Xiaojian has only been active for more than a month, and his mentality has not completely changed. He is still on the road of evolution, and his skin is still relatively thin. This aspect needs time to sharpen.

"Hello, I only have medium spicy here."

He took the dishes and said to Lao Zhang sincerely without rushing into the pot.

Some customers don't like spicy food, and when they heard that they couldn't make it extra spicy, they simply stopped eating it.He has met this kind of person a few times, and since then he has treated anyone who wants extra spicy food seriously, and is not in a hurry to cook it. What if they don't want it?Can you still buy and sell?

"What? Only medium spicy? Is yours Malatang?"

Lao Zhang frowned. When he went out to eat hot pot and skewers, he had never ordered anything less than extra spicy. He thought that restaurants that were not spicy enough were not worthy of the Sichuan cuisine signboard.

"People here don't eat spicy food very much. It's not easy to buy very spicy peppers."

Lin Xiaojian said frankly that the hottest chili noodles in the vegetable market in Beishan are medium spicy.He occasionally asked about the purchase channel of chili peppers in the nearby Sichuan restaurant, and he said that he entrusted his hometown to send them by courier.

"..."

Seeing Lin Xiaojian's clear eyes, Lao Zhang shook his head, snorted and said, "A Malatang stand only has medium spicy, what kind of Malatang does it sell? Forget it, just put it according to your medium spicy. I want three times the amount." Medium spicy!"

Seeing that the customer insisted on ordering, Lin Xiaojian couldn't help but do his business. He poured the vegetables into the casserole, turned on the fire, and started cooking carefully.After it was cooked, I added three tablespoons of chili powder to the bowl, which dyed the vegetables and soup a bright red, making it look very hot.

"You can't do chili."

After Xia Xiaoshuang put the casserole on the table, Lao Zhang didn't move his chopsticks in a hurry. He lowered his head, smelled the aroma, and immediately concluded that the quality of this bowl of Malatang was not up to standard.

He could smell the spiciness from the smell of chili peppers. Although the chicken soup was very fragrant, it was not numb or spicy enough. For a fan of salt-bang dishes like him, it was an unforgivable sin. After taking one bite, he felt like Rated 0 points.

After slowly eating a bit of each dish, Lao Zhang put down his chopsticks, walked up to Lin Xiaojian, turned on his phone and aimed at the green QR code, and said slowly, "Little boss, there is something wrong with the name of your restaurant."

"what?"

Lin Xiaojian looked at this middle-aged man strangely. He looked at him secretly just now and saw that he didn't eat much of the food and had a big bowl left. He seemed to be very dissatisfied with his food.

"Your shop shouldn't be called Malatang, it should be called Sanxiantang, or something else, anyway, it can't have anything to do with Malatang, not even extra spicy, isn't this a gimmick?"

After Lao Zhang paid the money, he spoke calmly and glanced at Lin Xiaojian casually, feeling that he had already been kicked out of Sichuan cuisine.

"what!?"

Lin Xiaojian was stunned for a moment, he had set up a stall for two months, and he had never encountered bad reviews.Even after the all-purpose broth was available, some people complained about the slow service, high price, and unsatisfactory taste in person, but it was the first time that he was deprived of his Malatang qualification.

He gave Lao Zhang a careful look, and saw that his face was vaguely familiar, as if he was a colleague who participated in a food festival, and immediately felt like a mirror in his heart: I have come across to find fault!

Under normal circumstances, the catering industry will follow the unspoken rule of "no entry for peers", but sometimes the competition is too fierce, and it is not uncommon to use some insidious means.Lin Xiaojian had never encountered it, but had only heard of it.

He was shocked and immediately became vigilant, cautious in his words and actions, for fear of being caught by Lao Zhang.However, after Lao Zhang said these heavy words lightly, he turned and left without making any more attacks, which left Lin Xiaojian a little confused.

"What do you mean, you look down on me?"

Seeing the back of the other party swaying back to his booth, Lin Xiaojian narrowed his eyes and frowned into a Sichuan shape.

He knows that his Malatang is flawed in terms of spicy, but most of the Sichuan dishes here are like this, mildly spicy, moderately spicy, heavy spicy, and extra spicy all have the same taste.Due to reasons such as purchase channels, cost and order rate, most Sichuan restaurants in Fengxian County do not have more spicy flavors.Lin Xiaojian thinks that he does as the Romans do, and there is nothing he can do about it when he meets someone who is addicted to spicy food and gets complained about.

For chain brands like Zhang Guofu with strong taste, one of the most complained reasons for takeout is that it is too spicy!
As far as Lin Xiaojian knows, after these chain brands entered Fengzhou, the franchisees secretly reduced the proportion of soup base.For example, if the company specifies 50 catties of water to mix with 1 bag of ingredients, they will use 60 catties of water to dilute the taste.

Unless it is those big brands that are directly operated, they are extremely confident in their own taste, so they can resolutely implement the original formula no matter where they go.This kind of belief is certainly good, but failures are not uncommon.

"Go back and ask your fellow villagers where you can buy good peppers."

He sighed, and if someone else had a hot temper, he would have rushed forward to argue with others: Who the hell are you?What's wrong with me selling Malatang?Does the country stipulate how many levels of spiciness must be for Malatang?It's really a dog meddling with a mouse!

After all, my own umami taste was too strong, overshadowing the spicy taste.Lin Xiaojian knew in his heart that the service target of catering was the public, and it was impossible for him to change his concept because of individual customers, but Mala Tang was not spicy enough, even if he was not complained by customers, it was always a knot in his heart.

"By the way, why not ask the system if there are any high-quality chili powders for sale? Since we have all the soup base ingredients, selling chili powder is not beyond the scope of the business, right?"

As the saying goes, "If you don't make a decision, ask the system." Lin Xiaojian usually immerses himself in business and is independent. He often forgets about the patron who stands behind him.

"Invincible Devil's Pepper Seeds: All-Natural Breeding and Screening for a Devastating Spicy Stimulation to Modern Human Taste Buds."

[Note: The growth cycle of invincible devil pepper is 30 days]

[Note: Please use the invincible devil pepper with caution to avoid personal injury]

"Wow!"

"This name sounds invincible at first glance, so it must be used with caution."

"Speaking of which, these names given by the system are so unorthodox. They smell like a cool and domineering president."

This was the first time that Lin Xiaojian used the system's inquiry and search function. Before that, he had always thought that he had to explore this information by himself. But it turned out that this was still possible, and he felt that a door was slowly opening in front of him.
