Transmigration: Becoming the Wicked Stepmother of Four Children

Chapter 123 Selling Fried Chicken Recipes

Lin Erzhu suddenly realized and said:

"It's a good thing and an important thing that the third son is going to work at the yamen."

What will happen to our fried chicken business then?

I'm afraid we won't be able to manage the manpower.

After he finished speaking, everyone began to discuss.

Lin Qingshan frowned and said:

"This is indeed a problem."

With Yunlan gone, we've lost a valuable assistant.

Wang Xiuxiu pondered for a moment and said:

"How about we hire another person?"

Wei Lianrong shook her head:

"This business hasn't even started yet."

Finding someone might not be appropriate.

Whether we make money or not is still uncertain.

We have to consider the wages of these workers first, which isn't appropriate.

Lin Erzhu scratched his head:

"How about I work harder and do more work?"

Lu Qingqing then spoke up:

"Everyone, please don't rush."

Let's think of a solution together; we can always find a way.

Everyone chimed in with their own opinions.

The discussion was lively and enthusiastic.

Finally, Lu Qingqing suggested...

Tomorrow I'll go with Lin Yunlan and the others to check out the Fuhai Restaurant.

Let's see if the boss is interested in fried chicken.

If we could get Brother Wang Yuan to send all the chickens to the restaurant to sell...

So, Wang Yuan now has a stable income.

This can be considered as helping Wang Yuan.

At this moment, the atmosphere inside the room eased up a little.

Lin Qingshan looked at Lu Qingqing, his eyes full of approval:

"Qingqing's idea is good. If it works out..."

That would solve Wang Yuan's major problem of raising chickens.

Lin Erzhu nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, Boss Quan's restaurant is doing well."

If we can reach an agreement, it will be good for everyone.

Wang Xiuxiu said with a smile:

"Then it's settled. I hope everything goes well tomorrow."

Wei Lianrong clasped her hands together and murmured:

"God help us, help us make this happen."

The moonlight from outside the window spilled into the courtyard.

The people inside were filled with anticipation for tomorrow.

The atmosphere gradually quieted down, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Get ready to welcome a new day.

The next morning, everything was as usual.

After everyone had prepared the herbal tea,

Lu Qingqing then went to Fuhai Restaurant with the two brothers.

Lin Erzhu seemed quite excited throughout the journey.

He kept talking:

"I wonder if Boss Quan will even be interested in our fried chicken."

"If it works out, that would be wonderful."

Lin Yunlan, on the other hand, remained calm and offered words of comfort:

"Don't worry too much, we'll do our best."

Lu Qingqing said with a smile:

"Let's give it a try, no matter what the outcome."

Soon, Fuhai Restaurant came into view.

The three exchanged a glance, took a deep breath,

We stepped into the restaurant.

Quan Fuhai immediately stepped forward to greet Lu Qingqing upon seeing her:

"Madam Lu, it's been so long! How have you been?"

The children in the shop are already used to it.

Without being told, they took the initiative to arrange the herbal tea.

Lu Qingqing said with a smile:

"Boss Quan,"

I've come today because I have something I'd like to discuss with you.

Quan Fuhai waved his hand generously:

"Please speak freely, Madam Lu."

Lu Qingqing glanced at Lin Yunlan and Lin Erzhu.

Then he said:

"Boss Quan, it's like this..."

We've been making fried chicken at home lately; it has a unique flavor.

"Would you be interested in this restaurant?"

Upon hearing this, Quan Fuhai became interested:

"Oh? Fried chicken? Tell me more about it."

Lu Qingqing smiled and said to Quan Fuhai:

"Boss Quan, this fried chicken..."

Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with an irresistible aroma.

We marinate the chicken with a unique secret recipe.

Then, it is carefully deep-fried in hot oil, resulting in an excellent taste.

Everyone who has tried it raves about it.

Quan Fuhai stroked his chin, listening with great interest.

Lu Qingqing continued:

"But now my Yunlan has to go to work at the yamen."

I simply can't be in two places at once.

I can't run this fried chicken business myself.

But I don't want this great skill to go unnoticed.

So I was thinking of seeing if you would be willing to take over your restaurant.

At this moment, Lin Yunlan also spoke up:

"Boss Quan, we trust you too."

I think your restaurant has a lot of customers.

If we can get this fried chicken out there, it'll be a win-win situation.

Quan Fuhai pondered for a moment and said:

"That sounds good."

I just wonder how they control the cost and price of this fried chicken?

Lu Qingqing quickly said:

"Boss Quan, you can rest assured about the cost."

It won't be too high.

As for the price, we can discuss it.

I guarantee you'll make a profit.

Quan Fuhai nodded:

"Okay then."

Madam Lu, why don't you make me a serving to try first?

If what you say is true, this might actually work out.

Afterwards, Quan Fuhai instructed the kitchen staff to prepare the ingredients.

Lu Qingqing made fried chicken for everyone to try.

The kitchen immediately became busy.

Lu Qingqing skillfully prepared the ingredients.

Each step was carried out in an orderly manner.

Lin Yunlan and Lin Erzhu watched nervously from the side.

I felt both anticipation and trepidation.

Soon, a fragrant aroma wafted from the pot.

Lu Qingqing deftly scooped out the fried chicken and drained the oil.

Then cut it into small pieces and plate it.

She smiled and placed the fried chicken in front of Quan Fuhai.

Said:

"Boss Quan, the fried chicken is ready, please have a taste."

Quan Fuhai picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

Chewing carefully, his eyes immediately lit up.

Nodding repeatedly:

"Hmm, not bad, not bad, this flavor is indeed unique."

The other staff members also gathered around to try it.

Everyone gave a thumbs-up in praise.

The chef said, "Master, this tastes really good."

Quan Fuhai smiled and looked at the head chef, saying:

"Indeed, this fried chicken is unique."

"It might even become one of our restaurant's signature dishes."

The head chef nodded repeatedly and said:

"If our restaurant were to introduce this dish..."

It will definitely attract a lot of customers.

Lu Qingqing heard their praise,

He breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"So, Mr. Quan, what do you think about this collaboration?"

Quan Fuhai laughed heartily:

"Madam Lu, let's talk about this!"

Lu Qingqing heard that there was hope,

He immediately burst into laughter.

Quan Fuhai invited Lu Qingqing and the others to a private room on the second floor.

After everyone was seated, Quan Fuhai asked:

"Does Madam Lu want to sell the property or take a share?"

Lu Qingqing explained that she was selling fried chicken mainly to help Wang Yuan sell his chicken.

Let's see which of the bosses is the most suitable.

Quan Fuhai hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Madam Lu is truly a kind and benevolent person."

Since Madam Lu wants to help people,

That would be better.

I'll buy the prescription for five hundred taels of silver.

From now on, the chicken used for fried chicken will be delivered by Lu Niangzi's friend.

If he can consistently maintain the quality of the chicken,

The chickens in that store were always supplied by him.

What does Madam Lu think?

Lu Qingqing was overjoyed and quickly said:

"Boss Quan is very generous; this arrangement is excellent."

"Then thank you very much, Boss Quan."

Lin Yunlan and Lin Erzhu also showed joy on their faces.

They all expressed their gratitude to Quan Fuhai.

Quan Fuhai waved his hand and said:

"Let's cooperate and achieve mutual benefit in the future, no need to be polite."

Quan Fuhai had the counter bring over five hundred taels of silver.

Handed to Lu Qingqing:

"Madam Lu, here are five hundred taels of silver."

I would also like to trouble Madam Lu to write down the prescription.

I want my subordinates to try it out.

Lu Qingqing handed the silver to Lin Yunlan.

Said:

"Boss Quan, let me write down the recipe in detail for you to keep."

I see you have a lot of ingredients in your kitchen.

I don't have anything to do today.

Perhaps I could teach them how to make it again in the kitchen.

That way I can make some fried chicken today.

So that the guests can have a taste.

Upon hearing this, Quan Fuhai was overjoyed:

"That's wonderful! With Madam Lu personally providing guidance..."

It will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Lu Qingqing turned her head and smiled slightly.

He said to Lin Yunlan and Lin Erzhu:

"Yunlan, Second Brother, you two wait outside."

I'll be out in a bit.

Lin Yunlan nodded:

"Okay, Qingqing, we'll wait for you here."

Lin Erzhu also responded:

"Qingqing, just call us if you need anything."

Lu Qingqing smiled and responded.

He then turned and went into the kitchen.
