Chapter 124: Boss Yuan, Use My Prawns Please

Having swallowed up the last mouthful of the smooth rice wine, Man Man felt that her entire body had started to sweat and she felt a sense of comfort washing over her body. It was like the feeling of drinking some hard liquor but without the acrid feeling at all.

“Boss Yuan, I want to order another serving of rice wine for tomorrow,” Man Man decisively ordered another serving of the rice wine again.

“Ok. Same time tomorrow,” Yuan Zhou agreed with a nod.

“Alright then. I’m leaving,” Man Man walked away unhurriedly, slightly tipsy.

It was really worrying that she stumbled while walking.

Yuan Zhou answered her by a simple nod.

At this time, someone brushed past Man Man. He wore an orange-colored baseball cap on the head, a white T-shirt and pale blue jeans on his body and a pair of white shoes on his feet with a bag held in his hand, looking both refreshing and energetic.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, he took the seat where Man Man had sat just now and took off the cap, revealing a bright and handsome face. Then, he said, “Boss, I heard the Phoenix-Tail Prawns cooked by you is top-notch. So you must be able to cook one serving for me with these ingredients, right?”

“What are they?” Yuan Zhou looked at the bag taken up by the youth and then opened it for a look. Inside the bag were many live and fresh river prawns, each of them still alive and kicking, appearing exceptionally fresh.

It was the first time that Yuan Zhou saw a customer come while bringing the raw ingredients himself.

“No need. They are not as good as mine,” Yuan Zhou was quite confident of his raw ingredients. What’s more, the prawns were truly inferior to those provided by the system.

“That’s impossible. These prawns of mine are definitely free from the slightest pollution and haven’t ever been fed with any feed. Besides, they have been reared for quite a while,” the bright and handsome youth frowned, with a full expression of disbelief.

“But it’s the truth,” Yuan Zhou crossed his arms against his chest and showed an incontrovertible manner.

“Boss, don’t tell me you’re afraid of being unable to cook a decent dish with my prawns?” the youth was quite suspicious as to Yuan Zhou’s abilities.

“Your prawns are inferior. I won’t use them,” Yuan Zhou pointed it out straightforwardly.

“Impossible. How do you know if you don’t give them a try,” the youth still said persistently.

“What about you trying Boss Yuan’s Phoenix-Tail Prawns first?” somebody beside him suggested.

“Exactly. I believe the dish cooked with Boss Yuan’s ingredients would definitely outclass the same dish cooked with yours,” immediately, another person chimed in.

“That’s true. You’ll know after you taste that,” other people in line also started to persuade him.

These people were so dutiful in strenuously promoting Yuan Zhou’s Phoenix-Tail Prawns to the youth that one would think they were shills employed by Yuan Zhou.

“Ok, offer me one serving, please,” After hesitating for quite a while, the youth decided to taste it first to see what exactly it was like.

“Sure. 1288 RMB, please,” Yuan Zhou first told him the price of the dish.

“Payment first?” the young man asked for confirmation.

“Yes, payment first,” Yuan Zhou nodded affirmatively.

“No problem,” then the young man brought out his wallet and took the money out before giving the notes to Yuan Zhou.

While stretching out a plate, Yuan Zhou signaled him to put the money on it.

Then he picked up the small change with a clip and gave it to the young man, without touching the cash all along.

Yuan Zhou was quite familiar with this action already.
