Star Chef

"Xia Xun?" Rhubarb had just finished the last skewer of barbecue, Xia Xun heard Boss Kasyapa's voice, "I'm still thinking about where you guys are going to celebrate, but I didn't expect it to be here, but the barbecue at Neo's is really good. I'll ask them to give you a discount later."

"Boss Neo's craftsmanship is very good, and the barbecue is also delicious." Xia Xun said.

Boss Kasyapa wanted to chat with Xia Xun for a while, but Neo ran out of the kitchen, followed by Watson.

"Kashyapa, what did you bring me?" Neo's voice was full of excitement. He has been busy with new products during this time, and he has searched almost all the hunting teams in Rocco City, but he has never found anything. Found the right ingredients, and Kassapa must have brought something good this time in person.

"Yes, I have a semi-finished product on consignment here, and I specially left it for you." Neo was overjoyed when he heard that, before he could return to the kitchen, he dragged Boss Kassapa to a table in the corner.

Xia Xun had already guessed what Kassapa brought Neo, "What is this?" Watson asked curiously, interested in the novel shape of the sausage.

"It's called sausage, and it can be eaten steamed. Steaming is..." Kassapa explained, but before he finished explaining, Neo frowned and refused: "I'm a barbecue restaurant here."

"The barbecue restaurant can also sell some other things! This is the last point. If you hadn't asked me to help you look out for new ingredients, I wouldn't have brought them to you." Kasyapa and Neo are old friends for many years. If it weren't for the fact that he really didn't want to close the barbecue restaurant that had been open for generations, he wouldn't be willing to take out these sausages, but keep them for himself to taste slowly!

"You'd better take it back. I only sell skewers here." Neo knew that Boss Kassapa was kind, but his personality was just like this. Can only sell skewers.

Xia Xun couldn't listen anymore, and interrupted them dumbfoundedly. If they didn't interrupt, they would probably start a fight: "Actually, you can try roasting the sausage."

"That's right!" Boss Kasyapa's eyes lit up. He had great trust in Xia Xun's craftsmanship. Hearing what he said, he hurriedly urged Neo to give it a try.

"Is this sausage delicious?" Neo was still hesitating at first, but Hexin who was sitting not far away asked.

"It's delicious!" Boss Kassapa relentlessly promoted it.

"Then give us one skewer! No, two skewers!" Hearing this, Kassapa gave Neo a look. Neo never refuses requests from guests, and was about to return to the kitchen with sausages, so he listened to Kassapa. The boss said: "Guest, these sausages are not cheap."

Hai Xin waved his hands indifferently: "Master is so poor that all he has left is money, you just have to do it." Watson, who had been quietly staying in the corner, his eyes lit up, and he pushed Neo back to the kitchen.

"I'll ask Neo to thank you later..." Boss Jiaye realized the non-disclosure agreement he signed with Xia Xun just as he was about to speak, and he smiled perfunctorily.

"Hey, friends, I want to ask you something." Haixin beckoned to Xia Xun and the others, wanting to invite them to sit at his table.Kasyapa and Xia Xun looked at each other, this person just ordered two sausages, it is better not to refuse.

Seeing them sitting down, Hai Xin came closer and asked mysteriously, "Are you local?"

Kassapa nodded, Xia Xun and Da Huang were as quiet as chickens.

"Hey, we went to the barbecue restaurant across the street to eat a few days ago. The dishes there are cheap and the portions are plentiful. The most important thing is that I want to eat again every time I go there. But I just tasted it. It's unpalatable, and I heard later that you locals don't go to the barbecue restaurant opposite, why is that?" Kasyapa looked at the fleshy cheeks in front of his eyes, resisting the urge to pinch and explained : "We are also curious about what you think. The Neo Barbecue restaurant has been opened on the commercial street for several generations, and it has a good reputation. We have also eaten at the one opposite, but the taste is very bad, but you tourists I like to squeeze over there."

Hearing what Boss Kassapa said, Xia Xun confirmed his guess. The owner of the barbecue restaurant across the street didn't know what he added to the meat, which could make people addicted.If you are an ordinary tourist, you will definitely want to give it a try when you see a cheap and beautiful barbecue restaurant with a clean and tidy decoration. Although Neo’s has a well-known brand, these are simply not enough for first-time tourists. any effect.After being attracted by the appearance of the barbecue restaurant, the tourists will be affected by the addictive substances in the meat, and it is normal for Dun Dun to stay at their home.

But why only the locals and this little fat man don't like the barbecue restaurant opposite? Judging from the appearance of Haizhe and those subordinates, it seems that they still have a good impression of the food stall barbecue restaurant.

While the few people were chatting, Neo had already grilled meat skewers and sausages. The little fat man Haixin impatiently took a bunch of meat skewers, opened his mouth to bite down, and mumbled while chewing: "Good time!" His Brother Haizhe is much more refined, but after he tasted it, he no longer dislikes Haixin's decision.

After eating the meat skewers, Haixin picked up a bunch of sausages. In fact, sausages are not suitable for grilling, but Neo's craftsmanship is really good, and he is very precise in controlling the heat.He skewered the entire section of sausage on thick wooden chopsticks, and made a few small cuts on it with a knife, and then used the fat on the barbecue to make the sausage emit bursts of aroma.

"There is a smell of wine." The little fat man squinted his eyes and recalled it. Xia Xun was secretly startled when he heard this. He did put a little fruit wine when making sausages, but he didn't expect that such a little bit would be tasted by him.Kasyapa was also surprised. He didn't expect Xia Xun to use the fruit wine he bought from him here. No wonder the price of sausages is so high.

"Hai Zhe, you believe me now." Hai Xin said triumphantly, "That barbecue restaurant must have changed its head chef!" After speaking, he took a sip of the iced drink that was served with the barbecue.

"Do you want it?" Hai Xin saw Hai Zhe cast a disgusted glance at him after drinking, and raised the half-empty glass to him: "The iced drink made from erole leaves is really delicious, why don't you drink it?" Do you find it strange?" Perhaps because he really couldn't stand his brother's croaking, Haizhe rudely pushed away Haixin's hand holding the ice drink, and said impatiently: "Eat your food, don't talk!" Haixin Knowing that the other party was really angry, he stopped talking and sat listlessly on the seat.

Boss Kasyapa has a wide range of knowledge. He didn't expect that what the little fat man said today opened the door to a new world for him.Many people from Rocco City had eaten at the food stall at the beginning of its opening, but everyone’s reaction was that it was not delicious, not as good as Neo’s. If this is the case, why is their business getting better and better? .He and Neo always thought it was because of the ingredients. After all, cooking methods are limited now, and sometimes the taste of food depends entirely on the freshness of the ingredients, and food stalls have always had special hunting teams for the freshest ingredients, so they can attract Guests are also a matter of course.

But Haixin's words just overturned all his guesses. No matter how fresh the ingredients are, what's the use of them? A cook who can even burn the barbecue, no matter how fresh and precious ingredients are in their hands, is too much money.

Xia Xun is also thinking about it. Before that, he suspected that the food stall barbecue restaurant used illegal means, but there is another point that he has been unable to understand, that is why the people in Rocco City can not be affected, while the tourists from other places eat He will become addicted. When he saw Haixin today, he had a vague guess.

I still remember when Ai Qi gave him the leaves of the erole tree for the first time, he said that this is a plant with a strange taste. People living in Rocco City like it very much, but tourists who come to visit are not used to it.As for Hai Xin and his group, only Hai Xin could accept the taste of errol leaves and tasted it. According to what he said before, the barbecue a few days ago was still attractive to him, but today's was not.

"Hai Xin, is there anything you have eaten today that your companion hasn't?" Xia Xun asked suddenly.

Hai Xin was stunned, he didn't expect Xia Xun to talk to him, as a face control, he blushed with embarrassment, Da Huang was very dissatisfied with this, and gave Hai Xin a fierce look, as a result... Hai Xin's face turned even redder .

Haizhe frowned, he didn't like talking to strangers, but they were asking Haixin, so he kept silent and continued eating the barbecue.

"Let me think about it..." Although he is a face control person and eats a lot, Haixin's memory is still good, especially for the food.

"This morning I ate boiled steak for three, three fruits, and bacon for two... Ah! The last bacon was too salty, and I drank a drink made from errol leaves. I like the taste, but I had to taste it because the meat was too salty, and it turned out to be quite delicious.”

It was a hearty meal, Xia Xun helped his forehead, but what Haixin said indirectly confirmed his guess.

"Did you drink the drink made from erole leaves in the morning?" Xia Xun asked again, Hai Zhe frowned, and finally shook his head.

What Xia Xun said, Boss Jiaye also realized, no wonder only tourists would visit again and again, it turned out that they used despicable means.

"Damn it! I must tell the clan elders that they have gone too far!" Boss Kasyapa's face darkened completely, perhaps because of the reason for opening a supermarket. He has an extraordinary pursuit of food, and what he hates the most is This kind of people who use food to play tricks, and this kind of addictive thing will also cause damage to the body, this is not just unfair competition!

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Haixin still looked silly and sweet. Kasyapa sighed, really didn't know how to explain it, but Haizhe was much smarter than his brothers. Listening to them like this As soon as there was a vague guess, anger followed. If there is really a problem with the food, then their behavior is a crime!
