Cheng He came here today with a mission. He no longer hopes to steal the secret recipe of braised food. He only wants to buy one more pot of braised food every day.

The relationship between the two broke down. According to Cheng He's initial idea, he didn't want to continue to buy braised food from Gu's family, but the braised food business of Deshenglou across the street was booming, so he was forced to follow suit.

Even because Deshenglou put up a sign to sell original braised food, he didn't dare to continue to mix braised food, let alone sprinkle a bunch of seasonings that would confuse the taste on the braised food. He could only sell braised food at the original price like Chunfenglou.

It's just that Deshenglou has just started selling braised food, but Chunfenglou has been doing braised food business for a long time.

Chunfenglou's braised food has changed several times in just a few months, from selling it at three times the price at the beginning, to giving away real and fake products, and now it has become the original price. Frequent adjustments in prices and tastes have made old customers feel annoyed.

The diners simply wanted to have a bite of delicious food instead of being constantly tormented by Chunfenglou. The quality of Chunfenglou's other signature dishes was similar to that of Deshenglou's mid-range dishes, but the price was higher than that of Deshenglou.

Gradually, old customers began to turn to Deshenglou.

Seeing that Deshenglou's business was getting better and better, Cheng He was so anxious that a large blisters grew on the corners of his mouth.

Chunfenglou still looked prosperous on the surface, with many customers, but in fact, most of them came to Chunfenglou because they couldn't buy Gu's braised food elsewhere.

Among these customers, only one out of ten might be attracted to stay in Chunfenglou for dinner.

Cheng He saw it with his eyes and was anxious in his heart. But now Chunfenglou's business was heavily dependent on Gu's braised food. In order to enhance his competitiveness, he could only come to pester Liu Xiaoru again, wanting to change the daily pot of braised food to two pots of braised food.

There is no profit in selling at the original price. Now he can only hope to attract more new customers through the gimmick of braised food. In order to achieve the purpose of increasing revenue, he rarely lowered the price of his signature dishes to the same price as the middle-level dishes in Deshenglou.

However, this desperate method backfired. The old customers felt that they were at a disadvantage, and the new customers did not feel that they were getting a bargain.

Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival was approaching, Cheng He's head was getting bigger and bigger. Now he could only rely on Gu's braised food to attract more customers during the holidays.

But his push at this time did not hurt Niuniu, but it aroused Liu Xiaoru's anger.

Liu Xiaoru raised her hand and took out the knife for cutting meat from the counter, and said viciously: "If you dare to show off in our shop again, and dare to push my baby, I will fight you!"

Cheng He had never seen Liu Xiaoru's fierce side, and he didn't expect that she would actually use a knife when she was forced into a corner. He was so scared that he ran away on the spot, and soon disappeared.

For Cheng He, this day was full of bad news.

Not only did he fail to repair his relationship with Liu Xiaoru, but his braised food business also failed on the spot.

That day, Liu Xiaoru sent Feng Pozi to deliver the news. On the grounds that Cheng He had injured someone, the two contracts were directly destroyed, and all the deposits paid for the purchase of braised food were returned.

"Fortunately, the baby is fine. If the baby was injured, I would definitely go to the government to sue him!" Liu Xiaoru said viciously.

Niuniu snuggled in her arms and whispered, "Auntie Liu, who will we sell the extra pot of braised food to?"

Liu Xiaoru didn't care about this matter and said, "Even if the restaurant doesn't buy it, we can sell it to individual customers. Now we don't have to worry about sales at all."

She spread the word that day, saying that Cheng He deliberately hurt people in her shop, and she had no choice but to break off relations with Chunfenglou.

Originally, due to trust, Liu Xiaoru couldn't break the contract. Now that there was a wounding in front of her, and there were several eyewitnesses at the scene, the matter was solved naturally.

"Niuniu is really my little lucky star. You solved all the things I was worried about. Finally, I don't have to do business with this Cheng anymore!" Liu Xiaoru said with a smile.

Niuniu raised her little face and said, "Dragon Boat Festival is coming in two days. Mr. will give us a holiday. I will come to the store to help Aunt Liu then."

Liu Xiaoru nodded immediately and said, "Okay, when the braised food is sold out on Dragon Boat Festival, I will take you to watch dragon boat racing."

Niuniu's eyes lit up immediately.

Everyone was having fun here, but Cheng He felt that his eyes were dark.

Without Gu's braised food, he didn't know how long it would take to attract a new customer.

"Boss, without braised food, what will we do on Dragon Boat Festival in our store?" The shopkeeper was worried.

When opening a business, the most feared thing is that the business is also deserted during holidays.

Cheng He gritted his teeth and said, "We will give away braised food on Dragon Boat Festival! I don't believe that business will be bad!"

The shopkeeper was very surprised: "What braised food to give away?"

Cheng He rolled his eyes at him and said, "Without Gu's braised food, it's not like we can't make braised food ourselves."

The shopkeeper thought that the taste difference between the two was not so easy to make up.

"If the customer orders dishes worth more than two taels of silver, we will give a free braised dish." Cheng He said.

In order to cope with the Dragon Boat Festival, Chunfenglou shouted the slogan of giving away high-quality braised dishes.

Because Deshenglou graded dishes, many people immediately identified themselves with this and thought that Chunfenglou would also give away Gu's braised dishes.

Cheng He's business really attracted many customers, and the business was booming the next day.

But he was selling inferior goods as good ones, and the truth would eventually come out.

In fact, if he changed to other dishes, I'm afraid he could really fool people.

Gu's braised dishes have a strong aroma and unique taste. In the past, they didn't fool people even if they mixed real and fake dishes. Now they are all fakes, so naturally they can't fool diners.

After a short day of good business, the next day, Chunfenglou's customer base was cut in half.

There was a large pot of braised food left in the kitchen, but it couldn't be delivered even if they wanted to.

Everyone in the kitchen was worried about how to deal with the remaining braised food.

"What's there to worry about? Leave it for tomorrow." Cheng He said without thinking.

This was not the first time he had done this. With all kinds of sauces to cover it up, no one could find anything wrong.

But the problem this time was that there was too much left, and the weather was hot during the Dragon Boat Festival, so food was extremely easy to spoil.

Most of the remaining braised food was placed in the kitchen.

The next day was the Dragon Boat Festival. As soon as everyone in the kitchen entered the kitchen, they found something wrong. They had a keen nose and smelled a faint smell of sourness on the spot.

"This braised food can't be sold. It has to be thrown away. I'll cook another pot, or go to other braised food shops in the city to buy some to replace it." The chef made a prompt decision.

But who knows who brought this to Cheng He's attention.

Cheng He stopped him and said, "What are you pouring? Pour more sauce. If there is anything inedible, you really want to buy it separately. Then pay for it yourself. Do you really think my money is blown by the wind?"

"What if you get an upset stomach?" The chef frowned.

Cheng He said casually, "It's impossible to get an upset stomach. I often feed pigs with rotten rice at home, and I haven't seen any pigs get sick. Anyway, it's free stuff. They can eat it if they want!"
