Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth
Chapter 119: Shopkeeper Zhu of Manjiang Tower
Shopkeeper Zhu happened to be out on business that day, and when he came back he heard the accountant mention this matter.
To be honest, I'm quite curious. This old friend of his wouldn't just invite anyone to dinner. And I heard they have two children?
"Yeah," Manager Zhao responded, and then said, "It just so happens that we are talking about what happened that day.
That day, I negotiated a cooperation deal with you.
You really helped me a lot, otherwise I wouldn't have time to chat with you!"
"Oh?" Shopkeeper Zhu's curiosity was aroused, and he quickly asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Manager Zhao just smiled and replied, "You know, our master is particularly fond of game.
But although there is a lot of game in the deep mountains, how can it be so easy to get it?
Fortunately, I had foresight and signed a deal with a farmer in the countryside in advance...
He is now one of the suppliers of our Zhao Mansion.
Not only do they provide our family with fresh and delicious wild fruits and tasty game, but they are also very skillful and can stir-fry all kinds of nuts with excellent taste and fragrance.
Brother, don’t think I don’t care about you. I am always thinking about you.
Look, I brought the food I got today to share with you."
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhu could not wait to urge: "Then why are you still dawdling? Hurry up and present the things!"
Speaking of Shopkeeper Zhu, he had no other hobbies in his life except a special liking for food.
When you hear that there are delicious dishes waiting to be tasted, how can you have the heart to continue sitting there?
Speaking of Shopkeeper Zhu, his real name is Zhu Dongyuan, and he is a distant relative of the old lady.
He was originally responsible for managing the Shangjing Manjiang Tower that the old lady brought as a dowry.
Later, the old lady wanted to go to the countryside to recuperate.
The master was really worried about her diet, so he asked Manager Zhu if he would be willing to come and serve him.
Shopkeeper Zhu nodded in agreement without hesitation, and handed over the Manjianglou in Shangjing to his apprentice to manage. He then came here to find another way and reopened a Manjianglou.
He always remembered his identity as a member of the old lady's family.
Not only that, if the old lady had not rewarded him with a bowl of rice back then, he probably wouldn't have achieved what he has today.
Now that the master has entrusted him to take good care of the old lady, he naturally feels obliged to do so.
In addition, he always kept in mind to expand the old lady's dowry shop and spread it all over the world.
After the Manjianglou business in Pengze County gradually got on track, he opened Manjianglou branches not only in the state capital, but also in the distant Hongzhou City, and the business was booming.
"Here, that's all!" Manager Zhao placed the four small paper bags he brought on the table one by one.
Shopkeeper Zhu sniffed and his eyes were first attracted by two paper bags emitting an enticing burnt aroma.
He eagerly opened the two paper packages, his eyes lit up: "Oh? These are roasted chestnuts and walnuts!"
Manager Zhao smiled and nodded in affirmation.
It seemed that because the important matter in his mind had been resolved, at this moment, he felt particularly relaxed and happy.
Shopkeeper Zhu quickly grabbed a roasted chestnut and quickly peeled off the skin that was in the way.
A strong aroma hit my nostrils.
He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, it smells so good!"
Then he couldn't wait to put the chestnuts into his mouth and chew them carefully to taste them.
The unique caramel sweetness instantly fills the entire mouth, leaving an endless aftertaste.
"Mmm... this tastes so good!"
While enjoying the food, Shopkeeper Zhu muttered to himself, "There must be a lot of spices used in this dish, and it seems that some honey is also added!"
Manager Zhao was surprised: "Hey! You really have a golden tongue now. You can even taste whether there is honey or not!
I just think it's sweet, but not greasy, it's delicious."
Shopkeeper Zhu shook his head proudly and said, "Hey, my tongue is famous for its 'first-class freshness'!"
Then he picked up a hickory nut and tapped the shell gently. With a crisp "click", the walnut shell cracked.
He carefully picked out the walnut kernel inside, put it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly.
Crispy and fragrant!
I didn’t expect that pecans could be fried and taste so good.
"These were brought by your partner, the farmer in the village, right?"
Manager Zhao nodded slightly to show his affirmation, "Well... how do you think it tastes?
By the way, if you get tired of eating them, you can try these wild fruits, which taste good, and most importantly, are very fresh, picked on the same day. "
As Manager Zhao spoke, he opened the other two paper packages, revealing bunches of crystal clear, juicy wild grapes, and bright red, sweet and fragrant wild persimmons.
Shopkeeper Zhu looked at these tempting fruits and asked in disbelief, "Are these all wild in the mountains?"
Manager Zhao nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I also received a batch of wax gourds today, a total of 12."
"What? Wax melon?" Shopkeeper Zhu could no longer sit still and stood up.
Manager Zhao shook his head and said, "Don't even think about it. These are wild animals in the mountains and there probably aren't many of them.
I guess the master should have made some arrangements, after all, it is a rare item."
"Alas..." Shopkeeper Zhu couldn't help but sigh in disappointment and sat down dejectedly.
It seems that I can only sigh and watch the melons.
Manager Zhao felt a little sorry when he saw his old friend like this, and blamed himself for being too talkative.
He thought about it, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He had an idea...
He suddenly said, "Hey, maybe it's hard to say."
Shopkeeper Zhu on the opposite side immediately widened his eyes and asked anxiously, "Old man, what do you say?"
"I can give you a clue, but whether you can get it depends on your own ability~"
Manager Zhao's words were not final. He knew in his heart that this old friend was probably trying to research some new recipe for wax gourd.
Whether Brother Gu can handle it depends on the attitude of his old friend.
"Really?" Shopkeeper Zhu's eyes lit up and he asked hastily, "Then help me to make some connections."
Unexpectedly, Manager Zhao kept it a secret, "What do you think of the taste of these two fried snacks?"
Although Shopkeeper Zhu was thinking about the wax gourd, he immediately replied, "This taste is absolutely amazing!"
Especially some of the spices, even he couldn't taste them.
"Then what if we sell it in a restaurant?" Manager Zhao suggested.
Shopkeeper Zhu thought for a moment and then responded, "Our restaurant usually provides guests with some small but affordable side dishes before serving the dishes to increase the freshness."
