Chapter 22 Guess
"Wine-stuffed radish skin!"

Li Dazui unveiled the second dish.

Sure enough, there are pieces of red and white radish skins, with a few coriander green embellishments.

It's a bit of a gathering of heroes.

"Radish skin, fermented rice?"

Tong Xiangyu wondered whether to put down the chopsticks.

At least the radish skin is much more normal than fish scales.

"These are not simple radish skins. They contain the mellowness of green bamboo leaves and the fragrance of radish skins. The combination of the two fragrances is a work of genius!"

As Guo Furong talked, she was intoxicated.

After all, she came up with this dish.

"Don't keep praising me, I'll be proud."

Li Dazui didn't care, he cooked all the dishes by himself, and he felt that the credit was all his.

At this time, Tong Xiangyu picked up a piece and tasted it, without saying anything about the taste, and waved his hand to signal everyone to taste it.

But no one moved chopsticks.

"let me try."

Under the surprised eyes of several people, Li Xin volunteered, and also picked up a piece of radish skin and ate it into his mouth.

After chewing slowly, he swallowed, put down his chopsticks, nodded slightly, and did not speak.

This made everyone feel itchy.

Still Li Dazui couldn't hold back, and said, "How does it taste?"

"It's not unpalatable, the current food and drink are barely okay."

Li Xin laughed.

"Oh, it's still brothers who know the goods."

Li Dazui patted his chest reassuringly and smiled.

"Don't talk about it, let's try the dishes."

Tong Xiangyu was obviously dissatisfied, her face had already turned dark.

"The next dish is a hot dish, braised fat sea!"

Perhaps it was Li Xin's approval, which brought encouragement to Dazui, his enthusiasm was high, and his voice became more energetic.

However, when the plate was lifted, it was a lump of black and unknown substance.

Li Dazui also tried his best to save it, and sprinkled some green onion for decoration, but it was a pity that he couldn't be rescued.

"Fat sea braise?"

Tong Xiangyu felt disgusted just by looking at it.

"Of course it can be braised in soy sauce. Look how good the color is. The tender green onion and the bright red fat sea make it a living story of the West Chamber!"

This dish was thought up by Lu Xiucai, and he tried his best to promote it, but he opened his eyes and told nonsense, calling the black one red.

"Is it "The Story of the West Chamber?"

Tong Xiangyu was left speechless.

"Yes, red and green, it's a play."

Bai Zhantang chimed in.

"Next!"

Tong Xiangyu didn't want to discuss this mess anymore.

Followed by fried cucumbers, obviously much more normal.

Li Xin trimmed one, took a bite and thought it was acceptable, so he gave Qingwen another one.

The master and servant ate cucumbers, and Bai Zhantang was greedy too, so he also grabbed the root and ate it.

There was only the last one left on the plate, and Li Dazui wanted to eat it, but he didn't dare.

Because Tong Xiangyu's face completely sank, staring at him, that look made him feel creepy.

In the end, the only one left was snatched by Mo Xiaobei.

Under the threat of Guo Furong's eyes, Mo Xiaobei also gave the latter half of it.

"Continue to inspect the dishes."

Tong Xiangyu didn't comment on Cucumber, but said calmly.

So, charcoal grilled sow's trotters, steamed yellow croaker, soup water egg drop soup, rock sugar fat sausage.

The following four dishes were revealed one after another. At first glance, they seemed to be normal, but each had its own problems.

All in all, the result is that Tong Xiangyu is very dissatisfied.

She laughed angrily: "It's very good, very good! You can eat it, especially the spicy fish scales and braised fat sea. If you don't finish eating, you don't want to get paid this month!"

"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, don't be angry, at least a few dishes are passable."

Li Dazui apologized with a smile.

"That's right, look at the fried cucumber in my hand, isn't it good? Little Guo Xiaobei, brother Li and little girl Qingwen, don't they also eat with relish."

Bai Zhantang gnawed on a cucumber and smiled, trying his best to appease shopkeeper Tong.

He knew that the inn was facing life and death recently, and if there were no more guests, it would really close down.

So it is understandable that Tong Xiangyu is so anxious.

"Mr. Li, tell the truth, how about this fried cucumber? Is it delicious?"

Tong Xiangyu looked at Li Xin.

"It was delicious."

Li Xin.

Dazui listened, just about to show a smile.

But Li Xin continued: "But raw cucumbers are more delicious after being washed and eaten directly."

The wide-mouthed smile collapsed in an instant.

Tong Xiangyu sneered at him: "Did you hear Dazui? Mr. Li is a guest, and his words represent the aspirations of all customers. A few dishes here are edible and passable. What's the use!"

"The home-cooked dishes you used to make are more decent, is it useful? How did I tell you, and you! What I want is innovation, new dishes, not for you to play tricks on me!"

"You have fooled me, can you fool the guests? Didn't they all be snatched by Yihong Restaurant!"

Tong Xiangyu was really angry.

However, most of her anger was not aimed at everyone, but at her own inability to save the inn.

She has a lot of affection for the inn and doesn't want to lose it.

The rest of the people were similar, and the scene fell silent.

"Actually, there is no need to be so pessimistic."

Li Xin couldn't stand the atmosphere, so he endured for a moment and broke the silence.

"How to say?"

Bai Zhantang Road.

"Didn't we go across to eat before? Brother Bai ordered expensive dishes, but did you notice that the more common dishes are very cheap?"

When Li Xin said this, he looked at Guo Furong and said, "Miss Guo should be clear, right?"

Guo Furong nodded: "Yes, the dishes on the other side not only use good ingredients and taste good, but are also much cheaper than ours."

"Didn't you already know that? The other side is doing business at a loss on purpose, and wants to overwhelm us with strong financial resources. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have no customers here just because of the good cook on the other side."

Bai Zhantang said depressedly.

In fact, if Yang Huilan didn't need a place to live, and the opposite was just a restaurant, not an inn, even Yang Huilan would have been snatched away.

"Brother Bai, think about it, can this kind of loss-making business last for a long time?"

Li Xin said the key.

"You mean..."

Bai Zhantang knew what Li Xin wanted to express.

But he shook his head: "Look at the attitude and tone of the shopkeeper Sai Diaochan, as if he doesn't take money seriously, we can't stand the other side."

Snapped!
When Tong Xiangyu heard this, she was also very angry, and slapped the table.

Angrily said: "It's great to be rich! If you have money, you can do whatever you want? Don't you have two stinky money! I'm in a hurry. I go back to my mother's house to get 3 taels, 10 taels, and 30 taels of silver, and spend it with the opposite side. ! See who can spend more than whom!"

As she spoke, she was so excited that she shed tears.

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry."

Mo Xiaobei came to comfort her and stroked her back.

"May I ask, who is shopkeeper Tong's natal family?"

Li Xin took the opportunity to ask.

"Her family runs an escort agency."

Bai Zhantang Road.

"Longmen Escort Bureau."

Lu Xiucai added.

"It seems quite famous, right? Disrespect and disrespect."

Li Xin seized the opportunity to get close again.

Then he continued: "Brother Bai, didn't you say before that there was something wrong with Shopkeeper Sai's house, and Hu Shiniang couldn't be arranged to live in it, so he entrusted it here to take care of it? I guess, is it possible that it is the money from Shopkeeper Sai?" Is the turnover not working?"
