The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray

Li Xi is not someone who would spend money to put herself at a disadvantage. She put down her chopsticks and said, "Waiter."

"I'm here, sir. What do you want?" The waiter glanced at the food on the table, sighed in his heart, and smiled respectfully on his face.

“Your dish…”

Before Li Xi finished her words, the waiter knew what she wanted to say.

"Sir, I'm really sorry, our chef has been poached, and now his apprentice is in charge, so the taste is inevitably not as good, but we have given you discounts on both the price and the portion."

Li Xi took a look at the four huge dishes and fell silent. So that's what it was.

This routine always seemed familiar to her. She remembered seeing a video in which the penalty for selling fake brand shoes was ten times that of the original one, so she just sent out eleven pairs.

Well, people in ancient and modern times are all human beings, and such smart people can be found everywhere.

"No wonder your restaurant is so deserted." Li Xi glanced at the empty lobby.

The waiter sighed, "Oh, it's all because of Xinglong Restaurant's bad behavior. They spent a lot of money to poach the chef. The chef in charge is not even a master yet, so the food is bound to taste a little worse. I hope you will bear with me."

He said this to gain sympathy, but it was also the truth.

Ever since Chef Zhou was poached, their business has been in a slump. If things continue like this, they will go bankrupt.

Gu Jingzhi was even more picky than Li Xi. He had put down his chopsticks long before Li Xi did. Only Hu Zi was still eating. He listened while eating, and he understood. Hu Zi lowered his head to glance at the meat in the bowl. Although it was not as delicious as the braised pork, it was also quite delicious.

Li Xi didn't expect this to happen, but...

Li Xi smiled and looked at the waiter, "It's okay."

The waiter was a little scared by Li Xi's gaze, "Sir?"

"Is your boss here? I have a business deal to discuss with him." Li Xi smiled.

"The boss is here, please wait a moment, I'll go and call her." Although he didn't know what business the girl wanted to discuss with the boss, he had a vague feeling that this matter was strange and very important to their restaurant.

After the waiter left, Li Xi sat leisurely on the stool.

"In a good mood?" Gu Jingzhi picked up some vegetables with chopsticks for Hu Zi. These vegetables were the only ones on the table that were cooked decently.

Hu Zi looked at the vegetables in the bowl, shrugged his nose, and glanced at Gu Jingzhi sadly. He didn't like eating vegetables.

"Huzi, be good. Only by eating vegetables can you grow up faster." Li Xi touched his head.

Hearing her say this, Hu Zi reluctantly stuffed the vegetables into his mouth, chewed them a few times with deep resentment, swallowed them hastily, and then ate his rice without even raising his head.

"It's okay." Li Xi raised the corners of her mouth slightly. She was naturally happy because she was about to receive money.

Not long after, the waiter came out from the back hall with a middle-aged man with a scar on his face.

"Sir, I am Su Jianye, the owner of Yunlai Restaurant. I wonder what you want to see me about?"

Su Jianye was just counting the recent accounts in the back hall. Ever since Zhou Daming left, their restaurant's business has plummeted. Liu Dun only studied under Zhou Daming for a month, and since Zhou Daming kept his knowledge to himself, he didn't learn anything at all.

The restaurant has been making losses these days, and the only reason it lost money is that the land it owns is on, otherwise it would have closed down long ago.

But even so, Su Jianye also knew that if it continued like this, the restaurant would only have the option of closing down. The most important thing for now was to find a chef who could take charge of the cooking.

He was just looking at the bill with annoyance when the waiter came in and said that a customer wanted to discuss business with him.

Su Jianye was confused. Talking business with him?

The waiter had already told him in advance that the guest was a girl, but after seeing Li Xi, there was still some surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect her to be so young, she should be only ten years old.

In fact, Li Xi is already fourteen years old, but she has not grown much because she has been eating poorly and suffering from malnutrition. She has already prepared some Chinese medicine for herself to regulate her body, and she will grow taller. Her goal is to reach 1.7 meters!

Li Xi glanced at Gu Jingzhi and said, "Shopkeeper Su, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Su Jianye did not look down on Li Xi because of her age. When he heard her say that, he took the initiative to take her to the private room.

Hu Zi also wanted to follow, but was kept back by Li Xi.

Gu Jingzhi looked at someone who followed Su Jianye to the second floor with his eyes slightly narrowed.

After entering the private room, Su Jianye did not close the door.

"I wonder what business you want to discuss with me?"

Su Jianye didn't think that this girl could discuss any business with him, he was more curious.

"Hello, Shopkeeper Su, my name is Li Xi. The business I am discussing with you today is a big business." Li Xi's face was full of confidence.

Daya belongs to Lijiazhuang, and Li Xi belongs to herself.

"Oh? I wonder what big business it is?" Su Jianye was really interested in her.

"A big business that can bring Yunlai Restaurant back to life." Li Xi said with a smile.

"what business?"

Could it be that she is a chef? Su Jianye glanced at Li Xi and rejected his previous thoughts in his heart. It was impossible. She was just a chef who had just passed the stove and could not lift the big spoon at all.

Li Xi looked at Su Jianye opposite her and saw his expression change from confusion to surprise and then to disappointment. She was speechless for a moment. How many things did he think about in such a short time?

Li Xi glanced outside the private room and said, "The chef of Yunlai Inn has left, and the new chef's cooking skills are not good enough. It's already dinner time and it's still so deserted. I'm afraid if it continues like this, it will soon go bankrupt."

Before, Su Jianye treated Li Xi as a child. He didn't expect Li Xi to say such words. The look in his eyes when he looked at her became serious.

"So what if it is?" Su Jianye looked at Li Xi with a guilty look in his eyes, "Yunlai Restaurant can still hold on."

"Can you handle it?" Li Xi smiled. "Because of the large quantity and low price of the dishes?"

"Shopkeeper Su should have seen clearly that this move is obviously useless, otherwise we wouldn't be the only table in the restaurant right now." Li Xi looked at Su Jianye firmly, "Perhaps, we should be more honest."

Su Jianye didn't expect that the little girl in front of him, who was about the same age as his son, was so powerful. It was not easy for her to be so shrewd at such a young age.

"Miss Li, I wonder what kind of business you want to discuss with me." At this moment, Su Jianye was extremely serious.

He also didn't expect that one day he would do business with such a young girl.

"Just call me Li Xi. Shopkeeper Su should also know that the biggest problem facing Yunlai Restaurant right now is the poor cooking skills of the chef."

Su Jianye nodded. He knew this of course, but finding a chef was not an easy task.

"Do you have any chef recommendations?" Su Jianye looked at Li Xi expectantly.

Li Xi: "I don't have a chef, but I have a family recipe, which is guaranteed to be the only one in Jiangning City."

"Recipe!" Su Jianye's eyes lit up. Why was Zhou Daming so arrogant before? It was because he had two recipes passed down to him by his master.
