Chapter 139 - 139 139 Going to a Restaurant

139: Chapter 139: Going to a Restaurant 139: Chapter 139: Going to a Restaurant Wu Xiaoyu spent half an afternoon learning from Qin Xiangqin, roughly understanding the material ratios and production processes, then carried a jar of mushroom sauce back home.

Upon arriving home, he gave the mushroom sauce to his parents to taste.

Both of them couldn’t stop praising the flavor, and they somewhat agreed with Wu Xiaoyu’s idea of starting a factory.

However, starting a factory, even a small workshop-style factory, requires significant investment in manpower, resources, and time, so it cannot be taken lightly and must be thoroughly verified.

One must remember that everyone has different tastes.

While the few family members find the sauce delicious, others might find it tasteless.

A more cautious approach would be to invite some professionals with an appreciation for seasonings to taste it, preferably promoting it within a small range for a trial run.

Jiji would undoubtedly be the best choice.

First of all, those chefs who have been immersed in culinary skills for many years have a certain ability to appreciate food, and they can also experiment in the restaurant to see the customers’ reactions.

Wu Xiaoyu briefly told Zhou Dong about these plans over the phone.

Zhou Dong was also quite surprised to hear about his intention to start a factory producing mushroom sauce.

But on second thought, it was still in the planning stage, and whether it would work out depended on the product’s quality, so he readily agreed.

Early the next morning, Wu Xiaoyu handed the jar of mushroom sauce to little Li, who came to pick up the goods, and asked him to take it to Zhou Dong.

Near noon, Wu Xiaoyu tidied up briefly, preparing to ride his motorcycle to Jiji to hear what the chefs had to say about the mushroom sauce.

Just as he was about to push his motorcycle out the door, he saw his mother, all dressed up, running out of the house and calling out to him, “Xiaoyu, are you going to the town?”

Wu Xiaoyu nodded somewhat puzzledly and saw his father also come out of the house, wearing the clothes he had bought for him.

His father, after locking the door, said happily, “We’re going to dine out today too, why don’t you take us along!”

Wu Xiaoyu felt a bit guilty hearing this.

Jiji had been open for some time, but he hadn’t taken his parents there to eat yet, which indeed seemed unfilial!

“Ah?

Alright… alright!” Wu Xiaoyu replied repeatedly and pushed his motorcycle out the door.

As his father locked the street gate, Wu Xiaoyu repeatedly warned, “Dad, Mom, don’t let it slip that our family has shares in Jiji!”

Wang Aifeng laughed, “Got it… got it, don’t you think I know that wealth shouldn’t be flaunted?”

After looking around to make sure no one was there, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Wu Xiaoyu started the motorcycle, and once his parents were seated, he cautiously and slowly set off.

The village road was already bumpy and tough to navigate, and now with both parents on board, he dared not ride too fast, going as slow as a bicycle.

Passing through the village center, the chatting villagers saw the family of three neatly dressed and asked, “Where are you going all dressed up?”

Wang Aifeng, seeing the villagers’ envious expressions, boasted slightly, “Heading to town for a meal!”

Hearing this, the villagers were all envious and jealous, but jokingly said to those around, “Just a show-off, got a little money and is already out splurging!”

“If I had a son like Wu Xiaoyu, I would be dining out all the time too…” someone couldn’t help but envy.

Her unrealistic words naturally made the villagers burst into laughter, “With your belly, what good can come out?”

Village chief Niu Mansheng, sitting at the door, seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s family’s proud look, felt even more upset, but what could he do?

Just a village chief who is about to be isolated, losing respect.

As soon as they left the village, Wu Xiaoyu’s father complained, “Just going out for a meal, what’s the big deal!”

His mother discontentedly said, “I haven’t dined out much in my life, so why can’t I show off a bit thanks to my son this time!”

Wu Youliang could only sigh helplessly, knowing her personality probably wouldn’t change easily!

In no time, the three had arrived in Longhe Town.

Although Daxin Village is not far from Longhe Town, the villagers, having little money, rarely go to the town.

Thus, upon seeing the bustling scene in town, Wang Aifeng couldn’t help but marvel, “This town is indeed livelier than our village…” she said.

Wu Xiaoyu parked and locked the bike, then led his parents into Jiji.

As soon as they entered, they were captivated by the interior decoration.

“This decoration must have cost quite a bit, right?” Wu Youliang couldn’t help but marvel, while Wang Aifeng looked around, checking how the business was.

Little Hui, the waitress, saw Wu Xiaoyu leading in a middle-aged couple and quickly came forward, smiling, “Mr.

Wu, are these your parents?

What would you like to eat?”

“Are there any private rooms upstairs?” Wu Xiaoyu didn’t answer her but asked instead.

Little Hui, unfazed, replied happily, “Mr.

Wu, all the private rooms upstairs are full.

How about I take you to a window seat?

It’s quieter there!”

Wu Xiaoyu nodded in agreement, leading his parents to a window seat and instructing the waitress before saying to his parents:

“Dad, Mom, I’ll go find Zhou Dong to talk about the mushroom sauce.

Order whatever you like!”

“Okay, we got it, go ahead!” Wu Youliang replied and opened the menu that little Hui had brought.

Upon seeing the prices, he was shocked.

A chicken stew with mushrooms cost 366, even a simple cucumber salad was 28.

Did his son open a black shop?

Wu Youliang got up and looked around, seeing that most tables were already filled with people, and those diners were enjoying their food without a trace of displeasure.

What was going on?

Wu Youliang sat down puzzled, and Wang Aifeng tugged at his sleeve, whispering, “Honey, why are these dishes so expensive?”

“Yeah!

Isn’t this a rip-off?”

Their conversation was overheard by several diners passing by, who disdainfully glanced at them and muttered, ‘Bumpkins!’

Their words angered Wu Youliang instantly, but considering the store was theirs, he was afraid of causing any trouble, so he held it in.

However, those people, after sitting at the neighboring table, continued their mocking tone, saying, “The prices here really aren’t expensive, huh!”

The companion across the table immediately chimed in, “Yeah!

But even at this price, it’s not something ordinary people can accept!”

“Yet some people love to overextend themselves, coming to places they can’t afford and still finding faults, such ignorance!”
