Chapter 322: Chapter 321 Uncomfortable and Want to Cry [2nd Update, Please Subscribe]
Upon hearing Lu Xiaobu’s question, how could these people dare to tell the truth.
So they shook their heads one after another: "We believe, we believe, the hot pepper sauce made by Young Master Bu must be delicious."
"Scram, don’t give me that. With such flattery, I wouldn’t even give you fifty cents."
Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes and said, "This afternoon your company is not working anymore, you’re all on a paid leave, each and every one of you will try my hot pepper sauce later."
Well, his company, he calls the shots.
Behave as you wish, caught!
Hearing this, the employees immediately burst into laughter. Such a good thing?
Just for tasting some hot pepper sauce you get half a day off?
Of course, they agreed.
"Alright, alright."
"Young Master Bu’s hot pepper sauce is definitely delicious, um, definitely."
"..."
"I said, don’t flatter me, starting now, there’s no reward for telling the truth, but there will be a punishment for lying," said Lu Xiaobu as he rolled his eyes.
"Uh..."
One by one, the employees twitched the corners of their mouths.
Young Master Bu, can we stop fooling around?
You actually want to hear something unpleasant?
"You first, do you believe my hot pepper sauce is delicious?"
Lu Xiaobu addressed the person who had just spoken out boldly.
"I believe, I believe."
The employee nodded desperately, making an extremely sincere expression.
"A fine of one hundred."
Lu Xiaobu nodded and raised his eyebrows, "I’ll add to your hundred. I’ll get everyone a round of ten skewers each, and we can chat while we eat."
"Pfft!"
The employee almost spat out blood. A real fine!
Also, is that what you call adding a little?
Do we have a misunderstanding about what ’adding a little’ means?
Although there aren’t many people here, ten skewers each would cost tens of thousands!
You fine me a hundred, then you spend tens of thousands?!
The other employees didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Young Master Bu really knows how to play, imposing fines like this?!
Aren’t you afraid we’ll tell one lie each and eat you into bankruptcy?!
Of course, they were all joking.
Not to mention that they wouldn’t do that to Young Master Bu, whom they respected. Even if they did, they couldn’t eat him into bankruptcy even if they stuffed themselves to death!
However, the distance between Lu Xiaobu and them had indeed suddenly become a lot closer.
Since Young Master Bu wants to hear the truth, then let’s tell the truth.
"Xiaobu, do you really want to hear the truth?"
Another employee asked.
"Of course," said Lu Xiaobu as he rolled his eyes.
Once you reach a certain position, there are fewer and fewer people who tell you the truth.
That’s also why, aside from the incompetent emperors, almost all ancient emperors tried various ways to encourage free speech!
"Well then, I’ll be bold. Actually, Xiaobu... I mean, our company’s hot pepper sauce, I’m not too confident in it."
That person spoke up as if they were a warrior, neck craned,
They were bracing for the guillotine that could fall at any moment!
After waiting a few seconds and realizing that Young Master Bu hadn’t said anything and continued to smile,
He finally let down his guard.
Young Master Bu didn’t deceive them.
Seeing that he was okay, the others also loosened up.
"Young Master Bu, why did you suddenly think of making hot pepper sauce?"
"Do you want to eat some peppers? I’m from Sichuan and Chongqing, if you want some, shall I get you some?"
"Forget it, I’ve eaten your peppers before, I didn’t dare to use the toilet the next day! And you actually want Young Master Bu to eat them?"
"Hey hey, just a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue. I just wanted to show some respect to Young Master Bu!"
"..."
Lu Xiaobu pursed his lips: "See, I told you don’t believe! You wouldn’t tell the truth just before. Fine, when the hot pepper sauce arrives later, you’ll have to eat until your tongues fall off."
The employees immediately pursed their lips.
"Young Master Bu, don’t joke with us."
"Yeah, listen to you, saying the hot pepper sauce will eat our tongues away, that’s not even real food, how could it take away our tongues?"
"I don’t believe it either, it’s just a seasoning. I bought a bottle of Mao Yuan’s last year, and I still have half a bottle left!"
"Actually, it’s not all that bad, as long as it doesn’t end up inedible like that one from Sichuan-Shu."
"..."
These guys really are bold, their words brimming with disbelief.
Of course, it’s not just a matter of being gutsy.
There’s also a desire to show off in front of Young Master Bu, getting recognized by him might bring many benefits.
"Not believing it? Heh, with my fiery temper, if any of you doesn’t enjoy the meal later, I’ll double your salary for the month."
Lu Xiaobu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Not enjoyable?
You’ve got to be joking!
That’s Lao Ganma we’re talking about—the same that’s sold overseas, even winning over foreigners’ palates.
Its biggest feature is its universal appeal to both the young and old.
There are even quite a few people who skip the staple food and just eat Lao Ganma!
Such chili sauce, and still not winning over your taste buds?
Since the employees weren’t working, the leaders of Cola Company simply all came over to chat.
After all, what kind of leader would you be without employees?
Who would you lead?
...
Chatting away in the cafeteria beside the dining area, the afternoon quickly flew by.
Just before dinner time, Liang Lan finally brought over the first batch of the newly made chili sauce.
At this moment, Liang Lan had a peculiar expression.
There was shock, acceptance as if it were normal, and disbelief.
The funniest part was the hint of discomfort!
Do you know why it was uncomfortable? Because Young Master Bu wanted it urgently.
Liang Lan did not follow the secret recipe to the letter.
After all, it’s not possible to deal with fermented soybeans in a single day, so she used a variety of fermented soybeans that had a good taste to make it.
But even the chili sauce made this way completely conquered Liang Lan’s taste buds.
You should know she hardly eats spicy food.
After all, eating too much spicy food can easily cause acne outbreaks.
But!
The moment that little bit of chili sauce entered her mouth...
She was thoroughly won over!
And then...
She involuntarily scooped up another spoonful, paired it with the staple food, and ate a big bite.
Now you know why she was uncomfortable.
Because she wanted to eat more, but didn’t dare!
Uncomfortably craving, wanting to cry!
Arriving at the cafeteria.
The unique aroma of Lao Ganma instantly filled the entire cafeteria.
The employees who had been full of disbelief all involuntarily gulped down their saliva.
This flavor...
Sss, it’s delicious!
Lu Xiaobu had no time to attend to them; he quickly took the spoon from Liang Lan and stuffed a spoonful into his mouth.
Smack smack.
It seemed to taste a little different from his memory.
But it was good enough to satisfy the craving.
Good, not bad.
"Reward, five thousand."
Lu Xiaobu said while eating.
"Thank you, Young Master."
Liang Lan nodded, not saying much.
This kind of tipping was normal by now, sometimes several times a day.
Like when she brought a cup of tea, or poured some water.
Whenever Young Master Bu felt like it, he would give a tip like this.
She tallied up last month, just the five-thousand tips alone added up to over half a million.
And at this moment, the chili sauce was also distributed to everyone in the cafeteria who was present.
Lu Xiaobu waved his hand at everyone: "Eat up, remember what I said, if it isn’t satisfying, I lose, and you’ll get double the salary for this month."
Little rascals, as if I can’t handle you?!
Now submit obediently and ’succumb’ to it!
