Xia Xiaochan didn't know that Lee Congwen hated her again. Of course, even if she did, she wouldn't care.

There were some people who were a little bit like greedy snakes. Their greed would never be satisfied and they would only hate others, everything was the fault of others, they were never wrong, taking care of such people would ensure that their greed would never be realized. Such people would definitely suffer for their entire lives.

Lee Congwen had never done business before, so he naturally didn't know much about these merchants' methods. Seeing the shopkeeper bargain with him, he thought that the storekeeper was truly tempted.

While the shopkeeper was talking with Lee Congwen, a man who looked like a kitchen servant walked over and said something to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper who was talking to Lee Congwen said, ”Young Master Li, please wait for a moment, I have something to do.”

Lee Congwen had a bad premonition and hurriedly said, ”Shopkeeper, don't go yet. We have already agreed on the price.”

The shopkeeper laughed, ”Young Master Li, since your recipe is good, why are you worrying about this? Just you wait, I'll be back in a bit. ”

The shopkeeper followed a kitchen maid at the side and disappeared in a flash. Lee Congwen looked and gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

Besides, when the Wealth Building Manager entered the backyard again and saw that there were no outsiders around, he said to Niu Er who was working in the kitchen, ”Niu Er, is what you said true? Is it really that little girl who said that? ”

”Shopkeeper, it is absolutely true! That young lady said that if you want to buy that recipe, you will definitely regret it! That recipe is just a piece of silver lance wax and is simply useless. The words on it are ominous, and it is not a secret recipe at all!”

The shopkeeper nodded and said, ”I know. From Lee Congwen's words, he could tell that there was something wrong with his recipe. I just didn't think that this little girl would be interesting. She can actually cook the so-called cooking pot?”

Niu Er's face was also filled with excitement as he said, ”Shopkeeper, after that girl mixed with the seasonings, she has already let us in to watch. Don't say, that taste, tsk tsk, it's so fragrant. I really want to have a bite of it.”

”Is it really that good?”

”I haven't tasted it yet. Anyway, I just swallowed the saliva after smelling it. I'm so greedy that my heart is itching.”

The storekeeper followed Niu Er into the kitchen. Xia Xiaochan's hotpot soup was cooking in the kitchen. They were only waiting for the fire to go off before they put it into the vegetable and eat it.

When she turned around and saw the Wealth Building Manager walk in, she wasn't surprised in the slightest and said with a smile, ”Shopkeeper, it's almost done. You just have to wait a little longer.”

The shopkeeper looked at the steaming red base of the wok and smelled the alluring fragrance. His eyes twinkled as he said, ”Little girl, make this wok properly. If you cook well, the price won't be a problem.”

Xia Xiaochan had experienced all of this in her previous life, but now that she had redone it, she seemed much more composed. She casually said to the shopkeeper, ”Shopkeeper, don't forget to take care of this little girl when you earn a lot of money.”

The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed. ”Little girl, thank you for your auspicious words.”

As he wished, he explained, ”This pot, also known as a hotpot, the best way to eat it is to cook and eat it while it is being eaten. The shopkeeper needs to prepare a special small pot to store the soup, and the bottom of the pot needs to be burned with a good charcoal fire to let the pot boil while it is cooked. This way, eating it is both spicy, fragrant, and interesting, eating it like this in the middle of winter, makes your whole body warm up.”

The more the shopkeeper listened to Xia Xiaochan, the brighter his eyes shone.

Xia Xiaochan's method of cooking had never been eaten like this in the entire imperial city before. The shopkeeper had been doing business for many years, and almost immediately, he knew that once this pot was released, it would become extremely popular in the entire imperial city.

Of course, the new taste of the pot can be novel, but the most important thing is still to see the taste. Everything, wait until the taste is tasted before coming to a conclusion.

Immediately, the head storekeeper returned to the front hall.

At this moment, Lee Congwen couldn't wait any longer. He asked anxiously, ”Shopkeeper, what do you think?”

”Young Master Li, that prescription of yours really isn't worth that much money.”

Lee Congwen's eyebrows jumped, ”Then how much did the shopkeeper say it was worth?”

The restaurant manager immediately stretched out a finger.
