The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

The shopkeeper frowned.

The thing in the plate looked like an egg, but it was obviously not this color.

Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't say anything but just looked at the plate, Shitou smiled, picked up the chopsticks and put a piece into his mouth.

"Don't worry, this thing is not poisonous." Shitou said, "This is a good thing."

Don't mention it, this thing is really delicious!

The transformed egg was opened today, and only Li Fu had eaten it in the house, and they hadn't tasted it yet.

But since even her husband said it was a good thing, it must be delicious. Shitou took this opportunity to taste a piece himself.

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Seeing this, the shopkeeper waved his hands quickly: "It's just that I've never seen such food before, and I'm a little curious. My Ke Yue Lou can be said to have everything that Chang'an City has, and things that Chang'an City doesn't have, but this...what is this dish made of?"

The shopkeeper was not in a hurry to eat, and asked first.

"This is called a changed egg, it's made of eggs, so don't worry."

The shopkeeper also picked up the chopsticks, picked up a chopstick, and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

Good stuff!

Shitou has been carefully observing the shopkeeper's expression, and seeing his reaction, he felt confident.

Stable.

"I know you are the best restaurant in Chang'an East City. As soon as I came here, I rushed to your place. In fact, there are many restaurants as big as your Ke Yue Lou in this East City. This thing is a signature dish in any restaurant." Shi Tou said, "What do you think, shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper of the restaurant agreed with Shi Tou's words.

But he couldn't show it openly, because the important things were behind.

If such a dish was placed in their Ke Yue Lou, it would not be cheap.

Isn't the raw material just eggs?

I have to bargain with this person, and it would be best to find a way to get the recipe.

The shopkeeper's calculations were so loud that even Li Fu in Jingyang County could hear it.

"It can barely be served on the table in Ke Yue Lou." The shopkeeper said.

After hearing this, Shi Tou didn't tolerate the shopkeeper.

This person is not honest.

"In that case..." Shitou said as he put the lid of the food box back on: "It seems that the diners who come to Keyuelou for dinner will not have a good time. Shopkeeper, please don't force it. Our host said that we never do forced business. In the end, everyone is forced, no one is happy, and the business will not last long." Shitou said, packed up the food box, and was about to go out with the food box. "Anyway, I haven't been to other restaurants yet, so it's okay to visit two more." Shitou smiled and said, "Thank you for taking the time to talk to me in your busy schedule. I won't disturb you from doing business. I'll take my leave now. I wish Keyuelou a lot of money every day." Shitou smiled and was about to leave with the food box. Seeing Shitou's appearance, the shopkeeper didn't seem to want to argue with him. This kid, is he really going to leave? Shouldn't they pretend to be serious, and then both sides will argue and talk about the price? Thinking carefully, this thing is indeed a new thing, and it is very delicious. It can be imagined that if there is such a dish in summer, it can also increase appetite on hot days.

If the eggs can be put in well water to cool down in summer, wouldn’t it be more refreshing and delicious?

"This young man." The shopkeeper hurriedly said to keep him: "Please stay, please stay."

If this thing is taken by other restaurants, diners will go to them, then Keyuelou will make less money?

Moreover, if other restaurants have it, but they don’t, how can this business continue?

"Huh? What's wrong?" Shitou looked at the shopkeeper with an "innocent" face.

"Young Master, we haven't discussed the price yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Our master said that we won't play with dishonest people." Shitou looked harmless, thinking, as if he was really recalling what Li Fu said to him: "The master said that dishonest people are cunning and will cheat people without negotiation, especially when they come out to discuss business.

Those dishonest people with many cunning minds just want to pull back and forth with you, wishing you could give them the things for free and give them two hundred yuan. Sometimes it's okay to lose some money, but the key is that there are some black-hearted people who even want your recipe."

The shopkeeper listened to Shitou's words, his face turned blue and white.

Fortunately, he was a big shopkeeper and had a thick skin.

At this level, he could barely keep his face.

He had already scolded to this extent, so he couldn't continue to scold........

The shopkeeper raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Young man, look, my Keyuelou is not small. It has been in Chang'an for several years and its reputation is well known. How can a big shopkeeper like me cheat people?" The shopkeeper had a smile on his face, and he looked as sincere as he could be.

"So, I came here for you." Shitou said, "It's a pity that you don't like it. So, I can't do business by force. I'll go to other places to have a look."

As he said that, he was about to leave.

"No, no, no, I don't dislike it." The shopkeeper said hurriedly, "It's just that I'm not sure for a while. After all, the food you brought has never been seen before. If I buy it rashly, I don't know how the diners will react. Otherwise, if you have ready-made things, send some over. As for the restaurant, let's see how the diners react first."

Shitou sneered in his heart.

This is clearly a freeloader.

He learned this phrase from his husband.

What's the difference between the shopkeeper's behavior and visiting a brothel without paying?

Isn't it freeloader?

"Oh? How much does the shopkeeper plan to pay for the first batch of eggs?" Shitou asked.

He pretended not to understand.

You can try it, but you can't take it without paying.

"If the diners like it, this dish sells well in the restaurant, so we will naturally give you a good price." The shopkeeper laughed.

He didn't say it clearly.

Shitou chuckled twice and laughed to himself.

"No wonder the owner said that people in Chang'an City are cunning. After chatting for such a long time, he didn't even mention the price. This is a freeloader."

Shitou didn't say this to the shopkeeper, but he said it to him, just to make him listen and be speechless.

"Okay, I believe that Keyuelou is wealthy and can offer a good price. I'll go to other restaurants first." Shitou said with a smile, "As the old saying goes, shop around. I decided to listen to the old saying. After all, it makes sense."
