After being divorced, I took care of my two children and reached the peak of my life

"Manager Tong, if there are any extra chili peppers, please send them to other restaurants..."

Shopkeeper Tong was still immersed in his own thoughts when he heard Manager Liu asking him about the chili peppers, and he quickly replied.

"Replying to Manager Liu, Young Master, I'm afraid this won't work..."

As soon as Manager Tong finished speaking, he saw Manager Liu frowning slightly. Knowing that he had misunderstood, he hurriedly began to explain.

"It's like this. Madam Han found this pepper herself in the mountain behind her house. She kept some seeds and planted some herself. The quantity is not large, and after picking it, it can only be stored for three to five days at most, so..."

After Manager Tong finished speaking, he saw that both of them looked disappointed, so he continued.

"But Madam Han said that another kind of pepper will mature in two months. Perhaps there will be more of that kind and it can be stored for a longer time..."

Hearing what Shopkeeper Tong was thinking, Yun Xiao's eyes flashed. He had a premonition that this chili pepper would definitely take his Yunlai Restaurant to the next level, so he asked directly.

"Do you know where that woman lives..."

Hearing Yun Xiao's words, Shopkeeper Tong was stunned for a moment. He actually thought that Yun Xiao also had a crush on Han Yiyi. When he came to his senses, he realized that Yun Xiao wanted to go and see the chili peppers, so he quickly spoke.

"I know. It's about two hours' journey from the town. The restaurant goes to her house every few days to get barbecue ingredients, so I know how to get there..."

Speaking of barbecue ingredients, Yun Xiao remembered that there was such an item in the expenses in the account book, and he also saw the two barbecue racks in the kitchen just now, as well as the skewers of food on each customer's table.

He found that the food he was grilling was essentially no different from the wild game he grilled outdoors, except for the barbecue ingredients. However, the barbecue ingredients were in someone else's hands, so he felt very passive.

Then there is this barbecue. It is a good thing with high profits and prospects, but it is not suitable to be made in a restaurant. Thinking of this, Yun Xiao looked up at Shopkeeper Tong and spoke.

"Although the profit last month was high, most of it was brought by barbecue. The sales of dishes were much less than before, and now the barbecue ingredients are in the hands of someone else. This puts the restaurant in a very passive position. If this continues for a long time, if that person stops the supply of barbecue ingredients, the restaurant's business will plummet. Has Manager Tong thought of how to deal with it..."

Although Yun Xiao's words were a bit exaggerated, even without barbecue, the chili dishes today would make the restaurant's business better and better.

But the key point is that the chili pepper is also in the hands of someone else. Therefore, Yun Xiao’s worries are not groundless. The experience of these years tells him that you should never let others hold your trump cards.

After listening to his young master's words, Shopkeeper Tong realized that he had not thought the barbecue matter through carefully enough, and that Han Yiyi took advantage of him because he was too impatient.

As for this Chili, because he had been in contact with Han Yiyi for a long time, he knew that although she was stingy, she was a trustworthy person, so he did not sign the contract, so he spoke.

"To reply to the young master, I was indeed careless about the barbecue matter. Our restaurant signed a contract with Madam Han for the supply of barbecue ingredients. Moreover, after my observation over this period of time, Madam Han is not a person who does not keep her promise..."

As Shopkeeper Tong spoke, he looked up at the two people sitting above him. Seeing that they looked normal, he continued speaking.

"Furthermore, regarding the issue of barbecue affecting the entire restaurant, some people suggest that barbecue be separated out, or a stall be selected next to each restaurant, or a partition be directly set up in the lobby on the first floor of the restaurant. People who only eat barbecue can take it away directly, so it will not affect the people dining in the restaurant..."

Although Manager Tong only gave a general idea, the overall meaning was clear, which is that barbecue can become a feature of Yunlai Restaurant.

After hearing what Shopkeeper Tong said, Yun Xiao couldn't help but show a bit of admiration in his eyes. He had the same idea just now, but he didn't expect that Shopkeeper Tong's idea coincided with his own.

While the three of them were discussing barbecue, Han Yi and the others finished their wontons and were dragged along by two, no! Now three, "little guys" to stroll along the street.

One of them wanted to buy a candy man, and the next he wanted to buy some snacks. It was rare to see them so happy, so Han Yiyi followed them. Of course, no matter whether it was a candy man or snacks, Nangong Yuan would have a share.

Looking at Nangong Yuan, who was as happy as the silly son of a landlord just by eating a candy man, Han Yiyi was speechless. At this moment, Han Yiyi really felt that he had picked up a eldest son.

As a few people were strolling around, Han Yiyi's attention was suddenly attracted by something that looked like weeds on a stall not far ahead. He quickened his pace and saw that there were indeed things that looked like seeds on the stall.

After taking a closer look at it and sniffing it, Han Yiyi's eyes lit up and he thought to himself, this hole can finally be filled and he doesn't have to prepare the barbecue ingredients carefully anymore.

That’s right, this thing that looks like a weed is the cumin that Han Yiyi has always wanted.

But now the cumin is still on its plant and has not fallen off.

The person selling this thing was an elderly woman. When she saw Han Yiyi squatting down to look at what she was selling, she quickly asked.

"Girl, do you want to buy this?..."

"Auntie, where did you get this thing from and how much do you sell it for..."

Hearing Han Yiyi's words, the old woman's eyes flashed and she spoke.

"This is what my son brought from far away. I heard it's a good thing. Girl, if you want to buy it, I can give you a discount..."

Han Yiyi asked a few more questions, and the old woman only said that this thing was brought by her son from a very far place, but the old woman didn't know exactly where.

Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of him, Han Yiyi gave up. It was enough for her to know that there was cumin in this era. If her barbecue ingredients aroused suspicion from others in the future, she would just sell the recipe. Now that she had cumin, she didn't have to worry anymore. So she spent five hundred coins to buy all the cumin on the old woman's stall.

When the old woman saw Han Yiyi leading a few people away, she hurriedly got up and left quickly, but she kept looking back as she walked, frequently glancing in the direction Han Yiyi had left, as if she was worried that Han Yiyi would change his mind and come back.

It turned out that this thing was not brought back by the old woman's son from some faraway place, but was picked up by her on the official road a few days ago, and she didn't recognize it.

I smelled a strange smell and thought maybe it was a good thing that someone accidentally dropped, so I wanted to try my luck and see if I could sell it. But I didn't expect that my luck would be so good today. As soon as I took it out, I met a "sucker" like Han Yiyi.
