Overbearing Immortal Doctor
Chapter 265 - 265 Banquet and Mushroom Sauce Mania

265: Banquet and Mushroom Sauce Mania 265: Banquet and Mushroom Sauce Mania The banquet had just reached its halfway point when everyone’s attention had already turned to the mushroom sauce, and they started placing orders with Wu Xiaoyu.

Wu Xiaoyu noted down their store names and quantities one by one before inviting them back to their seats.

“Everyone, don’t you think Zhou Shunyi is really thoughtful?

With this mushroom sauce, your business will surely flourish and reach new heights!” Zhou Shunyi said with a proud smile.

Although the mushroom sauce was already available at Huarong Supermarket, they still owed him gratitude.

If he hadn’t told them honestly, they might have noticed this amazing seasoning much later.

Moreover, if he hadn’t invited the producer of this mushroom sauce, they might have had to visit several more times to get a discount.

Seeing Zhou Shunyi taking credit for himself, although some were jealous, they still had to agree and echo his sentiments:

“Today we really have to thank Boss Zhou.

If it weren’t for his generosity, our stores might have been empty by now…”

Zhou Shunyi quickly raised his glass, laughing, “Everyone…

don’t overpraise me…

don’t overpraise me.

We’re all in the same business, eating out of the same bowl.

We need to support each other!”

Seeing this, everyone quickly picked up the wine glasses in front of them, stood up, and laughed, “Of course…

we should all support each other…”

After drinking the wine, everyone sat down again and began to savor the delicious food in front of them.

These people had been running restaurants for some time.

Although many were not chefs, they had good taste and some knowledge of gourmet appreciation.

Super Delicious’ dishes were already quite good, among the best in the county, but with the addition of the mushroom sauce, they were even better.

This showed that the mushroom sauce truly had a miraculous effect, turning the ordinary into extraordinary.

How could such an excellent seasoning come from a small mountain village?

The person sitting next to Wu Xiaoyu, after praising the dishes, asked, “Brother Wu, your mushroom sauce can bring out different layers of flavor in dishes, like putting the finishing touch to a masterpiece!”

Wu Xiaoyu responded modestly, “Oh, not at all…

not at all…

You’re overpraising it, it’s just slightly better than regular mushroom sauce!”

“No, that’s wrong!

Your mushroom sauce is much better than others’.

It must have some special secret recipe, right?” This person pretended to ask casually.

Wu Xiaoyu knew he was probing but had no intention of hiding anything, so he said directly, “What special secret recipe?

It’s just that the mushrooms I use are slightly better than others’!”

Everyone, although they continued eating casually or chatting with the people next to them, didn’t dare to slacken their ears when Wu Xiaoyu mentioned the mushroom sauce.

They were too curious about this mushroom sauce.

Regular mushroom sauce could enhance the flavor of dishes but was far inferior to Wu Xiaoyu’s mushroom sauce.

How could someone so young produce such delicious mushroom sauce?

If they could get some clues from him, it would be great.

Zhou Shunyi feared that Wu Xiaoyu might unwittingly reveal the production process of the mushroom sauce, so he quickly laughed and said:

“Brother Deng, if you like the taste of this mushroom sauce, just buy more.

Wu Xiaoyu surely wouldn’t refuse, right?”

Wu Xiaoyu quickly nodded and smiled, “Of course!

If you want to place additional orders, it’s certainly possible.”

After saying this, Wu Xiaoyu took out the notebook where he recorded orders, and looked at Brother Deng seriously.

Deng gave an awkward smile and explained, “I was just speaking casually…

just casually…

My store can’t use too much.

The amount I ordered earlier is already enough!”

Seeing the topic of the mushroom sauce being abruptly interrupted, everyone continued eating as if nothing had happened, indifferent to the conversation.

The meal lasted more than two hours before it finally ended.

Before leaving, everyone found Wu Xiaoyu again, said some friendly words, and left slightly tipsy.

The waiter saw the meal was over and quickly came to clean up the table, while Zhou Shunyi took Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong to a small private room next door.

Zhou Shunyi leaned on the sofa, his eyes blurred with drunkenness, and said to Wu Xiaoyu, “I heard from Zhou Dong that your store…

is doing well.

Is the plan to open a branch in the county town something you can advance?”

Wu Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment upon hearing this sudden suggestion from him.

Although Zhou Dong was his son, Jiji competing with his Super Delicious still counted as father and son rivalry.

Not only did Zhou Shunyi not oppose, but he also hoped for them to advance the branch opening.

This seemed illogical?

“Uncle Zhou, may I ask why you’ve suddenly suggested we advance the branch opening?

Do you have some special plan?” Wu Xiaoyu asked.

Zhou Dong, sitting next to Zhou Shunyi, smiled and said, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll directly crush this Super Delicious of yours?”

“Do you know the restaurant in Longhe Town, which has been open for more than ten years, was easily defeated by us?

Aren’t you worried at all?”

Zhou Shunyi laughed and patted Zhou Dong on the head, saying, “You little rascal, I’m eager for you to have the ability to crush my Super Delicious!”

Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong looked at each other in confusion, then at Zhou Shunyi, who continued:

“If you can beat me, it proves you have the ability.

I’d be happy as can be!

Do you know why Sunx Xian got drunk and caused trouble today?”

“His old man handed over a branch in Guangling Town to him to manage.

It’s been less than half a year, and that store is already failing…”

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong remained silent, staring at Zhou Shunyi in confusion.

Zhou Shunyi explained, “Today I praised you for your ability, not only managing the store in Longhe Town well but also preparing to open a branch in the county town.

This might have triggered him, leading to his outburst!”

“Isn’t he jealous of us today?

Didn’t he cause trouble and make me lose face?

Let me tell you, you need to open this branch quickly to anger him even more…”

Understanding the reason, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help but laugh and said, “So, Uncle Zhou, you’re doing this just to vent your anger?”

“A person takes a breath of anger, and a Buddha receives a stick of incense.

The Suun family made me embarrassed today.

Do you think I’ll let them off easily?” questioned Zhou Shunyi.

Seeing this, Wu Xiaoyu surprisingly felt a surge of battle spirit.

A person takes a breath of anger?

Even someone like Zhou Shunyi, a middle-aged man, was so passionate.

As a young person with skills, why should he always be humble and meek?

Instead of only reacting when provoked, he decided he needed to change his temperament.

He couldn’t always be like this!

Zhou Shunyi’s words about a person taking a breath of anger and a Buddha receiving a stick of incense greatly moved Wu Xiaoyu, making him reflect on his recent actions and behaviors.

Faced with the village head’s meddling, Liu Sheng’s sabotage, Chen Zhaofeng’s malicious competition, and Wang Baishan’s provocations and slanders, he had always taken a defensive stance.

As long as his vital interests weren’t harmed, he never took extreme measures.

But his constant patience only made these people more relentless.

It seemed that in dealing with villains and those who provoked him, he couldn’t be too polite.

He had to strike decisively and make them unable to stand up again, unable to oppose him ever again.

Seeing him deep in thought, Zhou Shunyi thought he was contemplating about opening a branch, so he said, “If you have any financial issues, I can advance some funds for you!”
