124: Chapter 124 No Other Meaning 124: Chapter 124 No Other Meaning Seeing Chen Zhaofeng’s serious expression, everyone also picked up the menu to take a look.
When they saw the high prices, they all secretly rejoiced.
Their restaurants were not big and mostly served home-cooked meals at affordable prices, clearly targeting a different clientele from Jiji.
However, along with the secret happiness, some felt jealous.
These two were so young and already had such a big place, while they had worked hard for half their lives but were not on the same level.
As people harbored their own hidden motives, the waiter started to serve dishes.
Zhou Dong picked up his chopsticks and smiled, saying, “Everyone, please help yourselves.
Try the dishes at our restaurant.”
To some, his courteousness seemed like flaunting.
Successfully at a young age, let’s see how long you can remain arrogant before you face a downfall!
The first few dishes were cold appetizers.
Everyone picked up their chopsticks, took a bite, and found the food crispy and tasty.
It seemed the chef had some skills.
“The dishes are quite good!
Looks like Boss Zhou has hired a lot of good chefs!” Goat’s beard praised.
Initially, he was on guard against Jiji, but seeing the high prices, he knew it wouldn’t steal his business, so he was quick to offer praise.
Chen Zhaofeng had been running a restaurant for more than twenty years and had a high appreciation for gourmet food.
As the saying goes, “small details reveal the bigger picture.” If a simple cold dish could be made so delicious, the signature dishes that followed would definitely not be bad.
Maybe he had actually encountered a formidable opponent!
Amidst the chatting and laughing, another dish, Kung Pao Chicken, was brought out.
Chen Zhaofeng pretended to casually observe the dish.
The dish had bright colors, the main ingredients and side dishes were well-matched, and it smelled so good that it made everyone’s mouth water.
He didn’t take a bite until he saw everyone else had already started.
After chewing a few times, waves of shock surged within Chen Zhaofeng.
This meat…
it was definitely not ordinary chicken.
Even after frying, it was still tender and juicy.
Others also tasted it and were incredulous.
This chicken was too delicious!
Glancing at each other, someone couldn’t help but ask, “How is this dish made?”
As soon as he said that, he found it laughable.
The usual way to make Kung Pao Chicken was known by everyone.
If it were a secret recipe, how could they tell everyone?
Before Zhou Dong could respond, Chen Zhaofeng suddenly said, “It’s the meat!
This meat isn’t ordinary chicken!”
Zhou Dong and Wu Xiaoyu exchanged a smile and said, “Boss Chen is indeed a gourmet.
This dish uses free-range chickens!”
Hearing that, everyone nodded, as if they understood, but Chen Zhaofeng didn’t believe it.
After all, his restaurant used free-range chickens too.
Could free-range chickens be this delicious?
Nonsense!
Several bosses, confident Jiji posed no threat to their business, began eating and drinking freely, but Chen Zhaofeng started to worry.
Before Jiji even opened, Zhou Dong and Wu Xiaoyu had dined at his restaurant several times.
Now, the prices on their menu almost mirrored those at Juxian Inn, clearly targeting him as the main competitor.
And Wu Xiaoyu was his restaurant’s supplier.
Had this all been planned?
Chen Zhaofeng looked around, seeing all the diners enjoying their meals, and felt more and more anxious and even angry.
At this moment, the signature dish, Stewed Chicken with Mushrooms, was brought out.
Ignoring the etiquette, Chen Zhaofeng picked up a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth.
After chewing a few times, he smiled bitterly inside.
Indeed, it’s the chicken…
This chicken definitely had a secret!
Was it specially treated before cooking?
Or was the chicken itself unique?
Stunned, Chen Zhaofeng couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Boss Zhou, where on earth do you source this chicken?”
Zhou Dong saw he had touched a vital point and didn’t answer, instead glancing stealthily at Wu Xiaoyu.
Wu Xiaoyu met his gaze and said straightforwardly, “Boss Chen, these free-range chickens are raised by me!”
Everyone immediately said, “Boss Wu raises them himself?
Could you sell some to me?
I’ll pay a high price!”
“Sell to you?
Bunch of idiots!
This chicken is clearly Jiji’s trump card.
How could they sell it to you!” Chen Zhaofeng thought disdainfully.
Seeing their enthusiasm, Wu Xiaoyu felt a bit scared.
He had no choice but to say, “Everyone…
everyone, these free-range chickens are limited!
I hope you understand…
understand!”
Chen Zhaofeng mused, if there weren’t many, how could they make Stewed Chicken with Mushrooms a signature dish?
The secret must lie in the rearing process; otherwise, he wouldn’t insist on not selling to others.
Seeing his resoluteness, everyone didn’t press further and quietly continued eating.
Chen Zhaofeng couldn’t help but said angrily, “Longhe Town is a small place.
I wonder why Boss Zhou chose to open a restaurant here?”
“Yeah!
I just asked, and Boss Zhou hasn’t answered yet!”
Zhou Dong knew that Chen Zhaofeng already saw him as a rival, but he wasn’t afraid.
He said, “We already have a restaurant in the county, so we came to Longhe Town to expand our territory.”
“What’s the name of your restaurant in the county?” Goat’s beard took the opportunity to ask.
“It’s called Super Delicious…”
Hearing this, everyone was a bit surprised.
Although the name “Super Delicious” was a bit tacky, the business in the county was excellent.
And they’ve already opened branches in several towns around the county.
But why did they change the name to Jiji in Longhe Town?
Hearing the words “expand territory,” Chen Zhaofeng knew Zhou Dong was ambitious, and it seemed a fierce battle awaited.
He said unceremoniously, “Boss Zhou, it’s rare for someone so young to have such ambitions!”
“However…
people often say, what’s the use of a powerful dragon if it can’t beat a local snake?
Boss Zhou should be more careful!”
The intent to fight was clear in his words, and the others knew better than to stir up tension and began to defuse the situation, saying, “The dishes are really good…
really good…”
Wu Xiaoyu originally thought of Chen Zhaofeng as gentle and polite but didn’t expect him to be this aggressive.
But considering their competitive relationship and Chen’s feeling of being threatened, Wu could understand.
“Boss Chen, there’s a saying that harmony brings wealth!
We should support each other and make money together!” Wu Xiaoyu said with a smile.
Everyone echoed.
Chen Zhaofeng didn’t want to break ties immediately, so he smiled and said, “I was just reminding Boss Zhou, no other intentions…
no other intentions…”
