Chapter 238 The Mayor Arrives
Gao Jinbao hugged her tightly, choking back tears, and said, "My dear wife, you're so good to me. I knew your heart was with me. These two are a bit few, but we'll deal with the immediate situation first."
"Important people have eaten all kinds of delicious food, so they might not be too impressed with this chicken and duck. After all, it's impossible to please everyone."
"If that's the case, then the boss won't make things difficult for me anymore. From now on, I can just buy from the farms in town. It'll be much easier, and the profits will be just as good as before."
Chen Miao said apologetically, "Oh, it's nothing. You're my man, so of course I'll help you solve your problems. I can't help with anything else, but I can do this little favor."
"Alright, let's quickly let the chickens and ducks out and feed them something, lest they suffocate."
"Yes, you're right."
For the past two days, the two of them fed the insects with insect feed they brought from the brigade, without feeding them anything else, for fear that different food would affect the taste of the meat. They waited until the important person came to town.
Firecrackers went off at the entrance of the Happiness Hotel.
The owner, Sun Youcai, dressed smartly, stood at the door to personally greet them, his face beaming with smiles as he waited for something. He glanced at the Good Luck restaurant across the street and gave a light sneer.
The restaurant cares most about its reputation. Only with a good reputation can people come. The restaurant across the street can only temporarily overshadow them. Once it makes the news, it will be their restaurant's turn to become famous.
Not long after, a black car stopped at the entrance. The car door opened, and the accompanying police officers stood guard on both sides, escorting a middle-aged man into the restaurant. Sun Youcai quickly led the man to a private room.
Several more cars arrived one after another, and the people who got out went to the private room. It was rare to see so many cars in the small town, and many people were watching and discussing it.
Lobby of Good Luck Hotel.
Xiao Wu leaned closer and whispered, "Boss, look how lively it is over there today! There are firecrackers going off, the boss personally welcoming everyone, and several cars."
"I guess some important person has arrived. I wonder if they're a businessman from out of town or someone from the government. Should I go and find out?"
Zhao Dahai smiled gently upon hearing this: "Alright, go and inquire. But if it's someone from the government, don't ask too many questions. Asking too many questions can easily cause trouble."
"Okay, boss, I'm off."
"Okay, hurry back, the guests will be here at noon."
"Okay, I got it."
In a private room at the Happiness Restaurant across the street, Sun Youcai smiled and said politely, "Please wait a moment, everyone. I've already asked the kitchen to prepare. Today's dishes are very simple."
"Considering everyone's health, we have deliberately removed the heavy oil and spice, and simply seasoned the dishes to restore the original flavor of the food. These are all nourishing dishes that you are welcome to try."
"If it's delicious, I'll come again next time."
A young man chuckled and said, "Boss Sun, we came here because we heard your restaurant was good. Now that you've suddenly changed the dishes and flavors, how will the kitchen manage?"
"Oh, the ingredients are different. It's not some kind of wild game from the mountains, is it? I hope it's not some rare animal."
"That would be a mistake, Mr. Sun, you understand what I mean."
"Understood, Officer Ding, don't worry. The ingredients taste different because they have their own stories, but they are not rare animals from the mountains. The government is protecting rare animals, so how could I dare to do anything reckless?"
The young man gave a slight smirk: "That's good."
Sun Youcai slowly withdrew, and the subsequent conversation was no longer something he could hear. He went to the kitchen and said with a serious expression, "The people from the newspaper will be here soon. This is very important for our restaurant."
"Make sure you cook the food perfectly. Use eggs and duck eggs delivered by Kampar, not regular ones. Also, don't use strong seasonings. All ingredients must be the freshest."
"These government officials have eaten all sorts of delicacies; they can detect even the slightest imperfection. They can't use heavy seasonings to mask the freshness of ingredients in this setting."
"Everyone, pay attention! If we make our restaurant famous, you'll all benefit. Each of you will get an extra twenty yuan as a bonus, plus three jin of meat."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and they immediately became full of energy: "Boss, don't worry, this meal will definitely win them over. Next time they come, they'll eat at our restaurant."
"Hehe, now that we've made a name for ourselves, we can raise the prices later. Otherwise, this low price isn't good enough for our restaurant."
Sun Youcai nodded in satisfaction: "That's exactly what I mean. As long as the reputation spreads, the higher the price, the more people will come. If the price is too low, rich people will feel embarrassed."
"Alright, you guys get back to work. The food has to be served by 11 o'clock."
"Okay, okay."
They chatted casually in the private room, the atmosphere very relaxed. After some time, a fragrant aroma wafted over, and the people who were talking paused, all looking towards the window and sniffing.
"This smells so good... It reminds me of the first time I ate steamed egg custard when I was a child, it was just this delicious."
"Hmm, as expected of the most famous restaurant in town. The food hasn't even been served yet, but it already smells so good. It's really making my mouth water. What do you think, boss?"
Mayor Cheng Aimin, with a calm expression, hummed in agreement: "The aroma is pleasant."
I didn't say much else, just that the aroma was nice. As for whether it tasted good or not, you'd have to try it to know. If it was really good, then it could be promoted as a specialty.
At eleven o'clock, there was a knock on the door, and soon dishes were brought to the table. The presentation wasn't particularly exquisite, but the taste was indeed very good.
Sun Youcai greeted everyone, "Gentlemen, this is our restaurant's signature dish, steamed seafood with egg. It only has a little soy sauce. Try it and see how it tastes and is cooked to your liking."
"If there's anything you don't like, point it out and I'll have someone improve it."
Officer Ding smiled, displaying a seasoned air of officialdom: "Boss Sun is too kind. Since it's one of your restaurant's signature dishes, then of course it's excellent. The taste is indeed very good."
"By the way, what's in that clay pot?"
"Old duck soup".
The group was taken aback upon hearing this, and subconsciously glanced at the mayor's face. This leader disliked the smell of duck the most, especially the smell of mallard ducks, which he could never get rid of.
Sure enough, the mayor pursed his lips, stared at the pot of soup, and ultimately said nothing: "Alright, eat."
"Yes, sir."
The assistant prepared some steamed egg custard: "Please try some, sir."
The mayor's face remained expressionless. He picked up a spoon, took a bite, and froze, his eyes widening slightly as he stared at the steamed egg custard in the bowl.
"This steamed egg custard... is quite good."
Sun Youcai grinned from ear to ear: "Yes, they're all the freshest. I'm glad you all like them. Please enjoy your meal, I won't bother you any longer."
