Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

However, Li Hongbing only wanted to do all this in his mind and did not actually put it into practice.

After all, the hotel is not in dire straits yet, and Li Hongbing is willing to continue to maintain a seemingly harmonious cooperative relationship with Wang David.

Su Chen took Yang Xue and walked straight to the largest round table in the hotel.

"Call your chef."

Su Chen knocked on the table, looking very impressive. Yang Xue was quite surprised to see him like this.

In Yang Xue's impression, Su Chen was not only outstanding in academic ability, but also very approachable. Even though he had become a capable person who could negotiate big orders, he rarely put on airs. However, in this restaurant, Su Chen seemed particularly arrogant.

Could it be that he knows something inside?

Yang Xue looked around curiously. The hotel's decoration was exquisite and elegant, like a small palace. The complex decorations and waiters dressed like palace maids added a touch of ancient charm. All these made the hotel look extremely luxurious and expensive.

Yang Xue was not very clear about the chef's skills, but judging from the decoration of the restaurant, the standard here was definitely high-end.

She saw the pictures of the dishes hanging on the wall, and couldn't help but frown at the price of 120 yuan for the spicy chicken. Prices now are far less than they will be in the future. A kilogram of chicken legs is only worth a few yuan, but a plate of spicy chicken is sold for 120 yuan. Yang Xue also began to understand why this restaurant had few customers.

"Su Chen, should we go to another store?"

Although he was confident in Su Chen's vision, the prices here were too expensive, enough to afford a rich meal at other restaurants.

Besides, this was a party that Su Chen wanted to pay for. Although he had made a lot of money, Yang Xue didn't want to see him spend money in this restaurant of unclear quality. If the food here was not satisfactory and he was not allowed to leave, wouldn't it be a loss?

Looking around, she found that there were quite a few staff members in the store. If they acted collectively, Yang Xue would not be sure of escaping.

"Don't worry, just sit down and wait. I know the price range of this restaurant, and I can guarantee that you won't be disappointed."

At present, the plot is still in the initial stage of operation of Shanfang Restaurant. It is estimated that Wang David has not yet caused losses to the restaurant due to over-trusting Li Hongbing. Therefore, Su Chen has a certain confidence in this. He has long been interested in the outstanding chef mentioned in the movie. Su Chen certainly did not hesitate to enter when he had the opportunity to experience it himself.

Now that the business involves hundreds of thousands of dollars, this meal money is nothing to him. Wang David was summoned and stood in front of Su Chen with a confused look on his face.

"Are you the heir of the royal chef?"

Taking this opportunity, Su Chen carefully observed Wang David in front of him. He was not much different from the image in the movie, wearing a chef's hat and with a dull expression. It was obvious at a glance that he was not smart.

"Yes, I am the chef of this restaurant."

Wang David's voice further highlighted his dullness, and a look of doubt reappeared in Yang Xue's eyes.

Is this honest-looking guy really a chef?

Could he make imperial meals more delicious than those at Chunfeng Hotel?

Facing Yang Xue's puzzled look, Wang David seemed unaware and still had a smile on his face. Su Chen knocked on the table and said:

"I came here today just to eat Bodhi Jade Vegetarian Food." "Can you cook it?"

Su Chen didn’t know how good Wang David’s cooking skills were now, after all, it was not shown in detail in the movie.

In the plot of the movie, the Shanfang Restaurant went from being deserted to being packed with people, all in just one shot.

So Su Chen had some doubts in his heart, but he really missed the taste of that dish, so he decisively placed an order. "I can make it, I'll make it for you right away."

When Wang David saw that he had an order, he was so happy that he started to laugh. He went into the kitchen without looking back.

This scene made Yang Xue even more confused. "What is Bodhi Jade House?"

Yang Xue was very curious because she had never heard of this kind of dish.

As the big sister of the Yang Group, Yang Xue is knowledgeable and experienced.

She could even name one or two of the legendary dishes, but it was the first time she had heard of Bodhi Yuzhai.

Su Chen did not explain Yang Xue's doubts, just to let her keep some expectations. When the dishes were served, she would naturally know the true face of Bodhi Yuzhai.

Wang David hurried into the kitchen and started cooking, while Su Chen sat and waited leisurely.

The waiter standing next to him quickly served tea and water at Li Hongbing's urging. Su Chen leaned back in his chair with an indifferent look on his face, which made Yang Xue and Li Hongbing dare not step forward to speak.

At this moment, Su Chen was thinking about the development of Shanfang Hotel and its subsequent arrangements.

He knew that the Shanfang Hotel would be very popular in the future and become a well-known place for receiving foreign guests and conducting business negotiations.

The restaurant has high-end decoration and delicious food, so it’s no surprise that it ended up like that.

There is no business here now simply because the decoration is too grand. Ordinary customers dare not take a step further, and the rich have not yet seen the publicity.

Even if the prices were high and not aimed at ordinary people, how could ordinary customers dare to come in? As for those foreigners and wealthy people, they didn't even know that such a restaurant existed.

Sijiu City is so big that it will take some time for the rich to discover it. Although it will be crowded with people in the future.

But the restaurant would eventually be taken away by Li Hongbing through trickery and force.

Li Hongbing, the treacherous villain, will take advantage of Wang David's urgent need to go out and bring a contract to Wang David to sign. As a chef and a fool, he trusts his friend who grew up with him very much and will not be on guard at all.

He would trust his friends' words and sign his name without hesitation, even without reading the contents of the contract.

But the law doesn't care about that. Once Wang David signs, the restaurant will belong to Li Hongbing. Under Li Hongbing's management, the restaurant will go from bad to worse.

Without the royal chef David at the helm, how could the restaurant maintain its original appearance?

Wang David has always been a warm-hearted person. No matter whether Li Hongbing took away his girlfriend or occupied his restaurant, he was still willing to lend a hand to his childhood sweetheart. Even if Li Hongbing borrowed money again, Wang David still helped him through the difficult times, even though Li Hongbing left quietly.

How could such a kind person be bullied by a friend who grew up with him? Can such behavior be regarded as human? Can it be called a friend? Most of the difficulties Wang David faced in life were caused by Li Hongbing. After he lost the hotel, he had a lot of hard times and could only go back to being an ordinary helper.

From handling vegetables, selecting ingredients to working on both white and red cases, he didn't have a chance to be a chef. No one thought that this seemingly dull man could cook amazing food. Even though the manager and other waiters of the restaurant knew that he was not qualified to be a chef, no one was willing to give him this opportunity. People who knew that Wang David had lost his restaurant often mentioned this incident and poked his pain, teasing him whether he wanted to return the store. In this desperate and hurtful environment, Wang David persisted for a long time. Finally, after a series of business setbacks, Li Hongbing once again harmed Wang David. Li Hongbing, who was burdened with a lot of debt, asked Wang David for help in order to save his life. Wang David put all the small amounts of money he had saved for many years into a bag and handed it to Li Hongbing, saving Li Hongbing from crisis.

These various small-denomination banknotes were scattered on the floor. There were only a few hundred-dollar bills, and more were scattered one-dollar or five-dollar bills.

Even the elder brother was moved and let Wang David take his good friend away. Why should a man like Wang David, who kept his promise and was sincere, suffer such hardships? Was it just because of his stupidity?

Su Chen became more and more excited when he revisited these clips in the movie. He was not a good person in the traditional sense, and he felt that he did not have high moral character, but he could not bear the pain of such a kind person. In addition to the moral appeal, Su Chen wanted to deepen his relationship with Wang David out of a sense of interest. As Wang Daming, Wang David's brother, he was someone who could get satellites and ** in the Bear Country.

After he retired from the army, he turned to smuggling and helped his brother out of trouble several times. But he only provided financial support instead of taking care of his brother personally. His goal was always to make a lot of money, but he couldn't achieve this ideal with Wang Da Ming. So he went further and further on the road of breaking the law. But the behavior involving smuggling rockets and satellites was too exaggerated, and eventually Wang Daming was shot in front of the two of them. This also brought him to the end of his continuous smuggling career.

Su Chen wanted to introduce Wang Daming to the steel rolling mill and make him responsible for market promotion. In this way, the market sales of gas cylinders, water pipes and even new products in the future would be greatly alleviated.

If Wang David could introduce his brother, Wang Daming would definitely be happy to join the steel mill where Su Chen worked. After all, for Wang Daming, who was pursuing profits, he was sure that Su Chen could bring him sufficient profit guarantee.

If Wang Daming came to the steel mill, wouldn't it help the sales of the "civilian products" of the steel mill be even more powerful! Relying on the workers in the factory to produce these "small" products alone is really a bit stretched. If Su Chen can recruit someone like Wang Daming, he can further expand his business scope. Just as he was thinking about this, Wang David's Bodhi Jade House was also completed.

Wang David personally carried two plates of Bodhi Jade Vegetarian Food from the front hall to Yang Xue and Su Chen and placed them in front of them. Although he was somewhat lacking in intelligence, he was not completely stupid. He wanted to personally hear what the guests thought of his dishes. If he asked the waiter to come up and bring the plates, he would not be able to know the other party's true reaction.

Wang David was also a little confused, wondering how Su Chen knew the name of Bodhi Yuzhai, but he was still determined to make his best dish this time. Yang Xue saw the dish in front of her and showed a surprised expression on her face - it looked like an ordinary plate of egg fried rice.

In fact, many dishes have fancy names, but the ingredients or appearance are very ordinary. For example, a dish called "Ants Climbing a Tree" is actually minced meat fried with vermicelli. And even such a simple egg fried rice is not an easy task for a true cooking master. The Bodhi Jade Vegetarian in front of her looks like egg fried rice, but she will not easily underestimate the value of this dish.

Because she had seen the price on the menu, it shocked her. This dish could easily cover the food expenses of some people for a whole month. Even so, it was still just a plate of scrambled eggs and rice, how could Su Chen think it was delicious? Yang Xue was very puzzled. Is there any special secret in this?

With this doubt, she looked at the fried rice in front of her again. Then, she carefully scooped up a small portion with a spoon and put it into her mouth. The rice was wrapped with yellow fried eggs. She first smelled a faint scent of green onions.

When the food entered the mouth, the onion flavor was not too prominent. On the contrary, the taste of the egg, rice and the indescribable sweetness filled the whole mouth with wonderful flavor. This seemingly simple plate of egg fried rice made people feel all kinds of deliciousness when tasting it. Yang Xue couldn't help but close her eyes and let every grain of rice dance on the tip of her tongue.

This was the first delicious egg fried rice she had ever eaten. Before, the rice and the egg were always distinct, and even when they were combined, they still felt separated. Now, when she tasted the fried rice, she felt that the egg and the rice were perfectly combined. This was a completely different feeling.
