Zuixian Tower?

As soon as this name came out, the eyes of the guests at several tables around him were attracted, and they all stretched their necks.

For outsiders like Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu, the influence that Zuixian Tower brings to them is not that big, it is just a restaurant.

But the locals all know the existence of this No. 1 restaurant, and they are also very curious about the boss behind it.

Being introduced so solemnly, Song Anan didn't feel anything was wrong. Instead, she raised her chin, looking aloof.

Ye Zhen took another look at the pot-bellied man. Although there was still a smile on his face, he was sneering in his heart.

It turns out to be that popular restaurant!

Looking at it this way, he is indeed the boss of Zuixianlou, sitting here with a domineering look.

"I've met all the bosses. I and my wife are just setting up a small stall in the county town. It's not worth mentioning."

The first one to speak was Xie Yunshu, who still faced him with a cold face.

He turned slightly to the side, blocking other people's eyes from looking at Ye Zhen.

And such an understatement made several big merchants present a little unhappy.

Although in this era, businessmen are not as good as officials, but among such a civilian class, they are still the best.

Sensing that the atmosphere at the venue was a bit strange, Boss Wu quickly came out to smooth things over.

"Thank you, Master, for the award. Madam's craftsmanship is very admirable to us!"

These words were not meant to be spoken in a formal manner. Several businessmen present were full of praise after eating.

Even Song Anan, who has always wanted to rely on his status and was unwilling to give good reviews easily, couldn't help but praise a few words after tasting the spicy stir-fried snails.

After hearing Boss Wu talk about the dishes, the others looked a little better and nodded in agreement.

Everyone is a wealthy businessman and has tried all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas. It is rare to find dishes that make them have endless aftertaste like today.

"Madam's craftsmanship is indeed very good. I wonder if you are interested in coming to my Zuixian Building to be the chef?"

As soon as Song Anan said these words, the air around him was silent for a few seconds, but there was no look of shock on the faces of anyone else.

Obviously, they had already guessed that this would happen.

In fact, it was not that Boss Wu wanted to introduce Mr. and Mrs. Xie Yunshu to these merchants. He was not a confused person, and he knew that there was no communication between the two parties at all.

It was Song Anan who proposed the meeting.

When he mentioned it, did anyone else not understand what he was thinking? Those of you who have the wealth you have today are so smart!

Hearing this, even Ye Zhen was shocked. She didn't expect that the other party would want to poach him as soon as he opened his mouth.

She subconsciously wanted to refuse, but someone spoke before her.

"Thank you Boss Song for your appreciation. My wife is introverted and doesn't like strangers. We can just set up a small stall. As for entering Zuixian Tower, I don't dare to think about it."

Although Xie Yunshu's words sounded extremely polite, the meaning of rejection was very firm.

This disrespectful rejection made Song Anan stunned for a moment.

He never expected that the other party would refuse. In his mind, the other party should accept the job gratefully.

What status does Zuixianlou have in the barbarian county? Isn't it better to be a chef than to set up a stall here in the sun?

Being humiliated, Song Anan's face turned ugly, and he glared at Xie Yunshu dissatisfied.

The latter returned a cold look, exuding a fierce aura that made the other party's scalp numb.

Song An'an didn't expect that the other party would be such a tough guy, especially Xie Yunshu. He had seen that the other party was a lame man before. Even though he looked good, he was just a person with no ability.

Otherwise, how could he let his wife be exposed outside?

However, the reality was obviously not what he thought. Not only was the opponent not weak, but he was extremely powerful.

He rolled his eyes and suddenly changed his words:

"If you don't want to be a chef, that's fine. You can sell me the recipes for these two dishes. The price is negotiable."

Seeing that the request was unsuccessful, Song Anan changed her mind and directly asked for the recipe of the dish.

In fact, he likes both the food and the people.

But he is not that kind of lecherous person. The other party is so strong and refuses to give it to him, so he focuses on the formula.

"It's not impossible for Boss Song to want the formula, but he's just afraid that you won't agree to the price I offer."

Hearing the other party's words and wanting to buy the formula, Ye Zhen finally couldn't help it anymore and stuck her head out to speak.

Seeing her smiling and talking, the charming look in her eyes immediately captivated the minds of several men present.

But after Xie Yunshu coughed slightly, he quickly came back to his senses.

"You can make an offer!"

These words made Song Anan sneer and wave his hand, not knowing how much the other party could offer.

It's just two dishes. Even if it's delicious, is it possible that the other party still dares to ask for ten thousand taels of gold?

Seeing that he looked very generous, Ye Zhen curled her lips and said her request without any politeness:

"First, the two recipes cost two hundred taels each. In addition, I will get a 30% bonus for each dish, which can be paid daily or monthly. Second, the raw materials can only be purchased as specified by me. If Boss Song can agree

With these two requirements, I can sign the contract now."

She looked at the other party with a smile. The smile on her face was still very warm, but the shrewdness in her words was not concealed.

However, Song Anan's face turned completely dark when he heard the first request, and anyone could see his resistance.

"Madam, do you really dare to open your mouth like this?"

Two hundred taels is not a lot to him, and Song Anan wouldn't feel too much to buy the two dishes he tasted today at such a price.

But the latter sentence about dividends was the real reason for his change of attitude.

For every dish, Ye Zhen gets 10% of the profit, which doesn't sound like much, but it touches Song An'an's bottom line.

In his mind, the other party is just a cook with good skills. How dare he talk to him about such an equal matter as dividends?

Looking at the other party calmly, Ye Zhen hugged her arms and curled her eyes.

"This is my request, can Boss Song agree?"

"Two hundred taels is fine, but there's no way to share the dividends!"

Giving her answer with a sneer, Song Anan felt that she had underestimated the beauty in front of her.

Shrugging, Ye Zhen put on a very helpless expression.

"If that's the case, then we can't do this business."

With that said, she stood up, took Xie Yunshu with her, said goodbye to Boss Wu and returned to her stall.

In fact, she has no intention of cooperating with the other party to sell her own formula, so Boss Song is not an easy person to get along with.

Zuixian Restaurant, their whole family has a bad impression of this restaurant.

Ye Zhen and the other two patted their butts and left, but Boss Wu who stayed behind could only smile awkwardly and change the topic on the table.

The deal was not settled, and it was he, the middleman who was innocently implicated, who was unlucky.

Even though he wanted to appease Song Anan, the other party still slapped the table angrily, waved his sleeves and left.

In this scene, everyone has their own concerns.

Boss Wu did not blame Ye Zhen for this matter. Although he also felt that the conditions proposed by the other party were a bit excessive, the business itself was a matter of mutual consent and could not be forced.

As the only liquor store in the county, he is not afraid of Song An'an.

It's just that Ye Zhen's family is afraid that they will be hated by the other party from now on.

Out of worry, he went over to the other party while they were having lunch and gave him a heads up.

"Thank you, Mr. Sir, thank you, Madam. Today, you are alas!"

After sighing, Boss Wu looked a little sad.

"Do you know that Boss Song of Zuixian Tower has an extraordinary background? His eldest sister is the wife of our county magistrate!"

Hearing this, Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu looked at each other. The former looked surprised, while the latter remained calm as usual.

No wonder Zuixianlou can firmly control the name of the county's number one restaurant. It turns out there is such a relationship.

Today they have offended the county magistrate's brother-in-law, and there will be disputes in the future.

Seeing Ye Zhen frowning and seeming very worried, Boss Wu quickly spoke again:

"But don't worry for now, I will try my best to help you to persuade and reconcile."

He has a pretty good feeling about this family, and the spicy fried snails are really to his liking. Boss Wu doesn't want them to suffer any sudden disaster.

Ye Zhen nodded slightly, worried for a moment and then returned to normal.

Speaking of which, she and Xie Yunshu also made a deal with the county magistrate. The other party should not deliberately seek trouble because of this contradiction, right?

At worst, she will find some way to bribe the other party when the time comes. Anyway, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the earth.

"Thank you, Boss Wu!"

Although she was not guilty, Ye Zhen was still very grateful to Boss Wu for helping them. He not only came to remind them, but also offered to help them mediate.

Even Xie Yunshu softened his expression and thanked him.

There are many people who are the icing on the cake, but few who can help them when they need it. People like Boss Wu who know they are in trouble but are still willing to help are indeed rare.

After saying this, Boss Wu did not stay in the wine shop. After giving some instructions to the young man, he left.

He was not just joking about helping Ye Zhen's family, he was going back home to find his wife this time.

Speaking of which, Song An'an and Boss Wu are close relatives, otherwise they would not have the honor to invite each other to the wine shop.

Song An'an's eldest sister is the wife of the county magistrate, and Boss Wu's wife is a cousin of the Song family. Although she is a little far away, she can still speak.

After returning, he asked his wife to mediate on the matter.

On the other side, Ye Zhen, who was still selling eels and snails at a stall, had no idea about these things.

Not long after noon, all the ingredients they brought today were sold out, and there were still customers waiting unwillingly.

Ye Zhen had no choice but to explain to the guests apologetically, and then began to pack her things and prepare to close the stall.

After a few people finished cleaning up, Ye Zhen discovered that there was another customer sitting on the table of their stall, enjoying the dishes slowly.

The man looked to be in his thirties, had a decent appearance, and was very elegant in his behavior.

After taking a look at the wine shop that was not full, Ye Zhen thought for a moment and walked quickly to the man.

"Hello, our stall has closed today. Why don't you go into the wine shop and continue your meal? Our dishes are paired with small wines, which will give you a special taste."

She tried hard to make her tone more kind, and hinted to the other party to enter the liquor store.

However, the man put down his chopsticks, raised his head slightly, and looked at Ye Zhen.

"Since it's closed, that's all."

Taking a look at the other person's plate, there wasn't much left, and Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to take it away, she heard the man continue to say:

"I don't know if Madam will have any free time later, but I also have a business I want to discuss with you."

Ye Zhen glanced at the other person in surprise. She was confused. She had no impression of the person in front of her.

But from the tone of the other party, it was obvious that she knew that she had discussed business with the owner of Zuixian Tower just this morning.
