"yawn……"

Lu Ming waited until seven o'clock in the evening and almost fell asleep on the table. There were no customers eating.

There were a few people asking here and there, but as soon as I heard that you had to bring your own ingredients, I immediately left.

Even those who are curious will shake their heads when they learn that the processing fee for a vegetarian dish is 10 times the price.

It’s not that Lu Ming’s price is expensive. After all, in a second-tier city like Jiangcheng, the price of a plate of vegetarian dishes is really not expensive. But Lu Ming’s shop is small and a bit remote. It is not in a prosperous place. There are not many major consumers nearby. money man.

So I could only wait silently until dark, and Lu Ming didn't open.

At this time, near the entrance of the hotel, a middle-aged woman named Zhang Lan suddenly spoke in a low tone after receiving the call.

"What? I bought all the groceries, why didn't I go home all of a sudden?"

"It’s been a long time since you’ve been home to eat. The food outside is a lot of oil and salt, and you don’t know if the ingredients are clean. You always eat out and be careful about your health, and drink less alcohol when socializing!"

"Since you won't come back, I'm too lazy to cook alone, so I can just find a restaurant to have a meal!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Lan was a little helpless.

The man at home has been busy recently and has been socializing outside for many days in a row. It is said that he is to sign a big contract.

She can understand that it is not easy for men, but when she thinks of the cold home after returning, she feels a little uncomfortable. She lost all interest in cooking. She simply ate outside.

At this time, she saw a small shop next to her. When she walked in, she found that the environment inside was extremely clean, completely different from the small shop she had seen before. It was different, I felt a little good about it immediately

"Hello, how many are there?"

When Lu Ming saw the visitor, he immediately came forward with a smile and said hello.

"I'm just here to eat a simple meal, and you can cook whatever you like."

Zhang Lan was not in high spirits, so she found a place to sit down and put the dishes she was carrying on the table.

After listening to this, Lu Ming said with a smile:"Hello, that's it. My store is a bit special. , customers need to bring whatever dishes they want to eat and the ingredients themselves, and they only need to pay me a certain processing fee. Hearing this

, Zhang Lan was a little surprised:"Your store is so strange. This is the first time I have heard of such a business. So how do you charge?""

"Vegetarian dishes are 10 times the price of ingredients, meat dishes are 5 times more expensive, and rice is provided for free in the store."

As soon as she heard this, Zhang Lan wanted to go out without saying anything.

After all, the prices in Jiangcheng are not low, a handful of vegetables costs 2 yuan. After she calculated it, a plate of stir-fried vegetables would cost 20 yuan in processing fees alone. The money, plus the ingredients, is 22 yuan for a simple plate of vegetables. This price is really not low.

Although we are in the city center, no one’s money comes from the strong wind.

Such an expensive price, If it doesn't taste good, wouldn't it be a big loss!

This is just vegetables. If the ingredients are a little more expensive, wouldn't it cost more?

She raised her eyes and looked at Lu Ming, muttering in her heart, this is not a store, it is clearly in Robbery!

Lu Ming saw that the customer who had finally arrived was about to leave. Besides, this person came with the ingredients. He didn’t have to prepare the ingredients for the customers. How rare this was! If it were another customer, even if he wanted to eat, he would have to show up right away. Go buy ingredients. In this fast-paced era, who wants to wait any longer.

He quickly said:"Don't worry, I think you just bought a piece of tofu. I will process it for you and make a mapo tofu. You can try it." look?"

"What about the processing fee?"Zhang Lan saw him making serious inquiries, sat back and asked

"Ding, the price of tofu is 2 yuan, and a processing fee of 20 yuan is required!"

The system will automatically give the most reasonable price for any ingredient, so Lu Ming didn't need to think at all and immediately said:"The price of your tofu ingredient is about 2 yuan, and you need to charge 20 yuan, and the rice is provided for free."

Zhang Lan weighed it up and realized that 20 yuan was not bad. After all, such a large piece of tofu can be fried into a large plate of vegetables.

What's more, there is no charge for rice, so the price is still acceptable.

So she sat down and said with a smile:"The price is okay, but what I didn't expect was that you could tell the price of tofu so accurately. I'm curious. No wonder you dare to open such a strange store. Maybe the taste is really good."

After saying that, she handed the tofu to Lu Ming, but even though she said this, she didn't have much expectations in her heart. It can be seen that there is only such a young man in this restaurant, and the chef must be him. As the saying goes, you can't tell what you say. Mao, the work is not done well.

She was murmuring in her heart, can such a young chef cook good meals?

Lu Ming took the tofu and asked her to wait for a while, and then came to the kitchen.

When the tofu was placed on the chopping board After that, the moment Lu Ming picked up the knife, his whole temperament immediately changed.

Looking at the ingredients in front of him, it seemed that he had become a complete master.

This was also the case. Before he could prepare, Lu Ming's knife instantly It moved, flipping back and forth on the tofu. In a moment, the processed tofu cubes were lying neatly on the chopping board.

After preparing the ingredients, Lu Ming put oil into the pan, waited for them to be fried, and then picked them up. Add an appropriate amount of ground chili pepper, and an intoxicating aroma instantly rises throughout the kitchen.

When the ground chili pepper is slightly crispy, add tempeh, soy sauce, salt, and sugar, and a rich aroma rises to the sky.

Next, Lu After thickening the water, add the diced tofu that has been cut in advance and start to stir-fry.

When it is about to come out of the pot, add just the right amount of peppercorns and a little sesame oil, and the whole Mapo Tofu is perfectly presented in front of you.

After frying, When Lu Ming brought the prepared dishes to the front hall, Zhang Lan looked at it from a distance, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

She had never seen such brightly colored Mapo Tofu, with red inside and white inside. The neatly stacked diced tofu was stacked in the middle of the plate, not to mention how pretty it looked.

As she got closer, Zhang Lan sniffed her nose slightly, then took a sudden breath, and stood up incredulously.

She even wiped it without leaving a trace. Wiping the corners of his mouth to cover up the unsatisfactory glistening saliva, he said in surprise:"Wow, this fragrance is amazing!"

"And with your knife skills, the neat tofu dices looked as if they were cut by a machine. I took a casual look and found that the sizes were basically the same. The appearance alone was pleasing to the eye. Lu

Ming saw her performance. Needless to say, he was already 70% or 80% satisfied.

He smiled and said,"Sit down, please. It's not just that it smells good and looks good, but it tastes good.""

After that, he put Mapo Tofu on the table and left.

Even so, the corner of his eyes was still staring at the food. After all, this was his first customer, and Lu Ming was looking forward to the customer's feedback!
