Farming? I'm making a killing with my fairytale vegetables!

Chapter 122 Chicken Stew with Mushrooms

Sun Liu stopped drooling upon hearing this, but the more he thought about it, the more he craved it.

He used to work in a restaurant and would often eat delicious food. He thought he had long been used to such a life, but who would have thought that Boss Xia's vegetables would be so delicious? It felt like he was back to being a young man, thinking about food every day.

Looking at that pile of chickens and ducks, Sun Liu felt increasingly uneasy. He thought he could buy them himself, and luckily he had Boss Xia's phone number. Buying one to eat during the New Year would be the best option.

He made up his mind in secret, and then left resolutely.

The head chef noticed Sun Liu's bewildered expression but didn't bother with him.

I've gotten busy with work.

Although there are only a few famous restaurants in the county, their reputation has been getting better and better since they started working with Xia Shiyu. Everyone who has eaten their vegetables, whether they are a picky gourmet, an eighty-year-old lady, or a three-year-old child, raves about them. As a result, their restaurant business is getting better and better.

Manager Wu even said that they might become the number one restaurant in the future.

The master chef didn't understand Manager Wu's vision; he just did whatever work came his way.

He worked with great enthusiasm, his shovel almost sparking.

……

Manager Wu was relieved when he heard from Sun Liu that the chickens and ducks had been stored away and put in the kitchen. He even reported the matter to the boss.

Zhao Sheng, the owner of Dingsheng Restaurant, had also eaten the dishes grown by Xia Shiyu.

To be precise, he came to eat this dish when their restaurant business was booming. After eating, he told Manager Wu that he must maintain the cooperation with Xia Shiyu, because she was a cash cow.

So he got to eat radishes last time, and even took some home. This time, when he learned that the Xia family had sent him chickens and ducks, he became even more eager to eat them. He thought that since he was a boss, it would be nice to go and have a taste.

He drove straight to the restaurant, and the staff there led the way for him when they saw their boss.

Zhao Sheng followed him to the kitchen and immediately saw the chickens and ducks displayed outside.

To keep the chickens fresh, no chickens are being killed in the kitchen right now.

After taking a closer look, Zhao Sheng was even more satisfied. Look at this robust chicken leg, it's big and the meat must be very firm. He felt extremely satisfied.

Just as I was thinking of asking the kitchen to cook a chicken for me to try, I received a phone call.

"Hey, is this Boss Zhao?"

Zhao Sheng nodded upon hearing the voice, "Yes, yes, may I ask who you are?"

"Oh, I'm from the county office. Our leader and his superiors are having dinner at your restaurant, could you please reserve a private room for them..."

Zhao Sheng was immediately struck by the news; wow, a leader was coming!

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely get things done."

After making the call, Zhao Sheng was about to leave to run some errands when he saw the chickens and ducks on the ground and suddenly remembered something.

Pointing to the chickens and ducks on the ground, he instructed, "Go and prepare one; we'll have guests coming to eat later."

"Okay," someone in the kitchen immediately replied and went to kill the chicken.

Zhao Sheng came and went in a hurry. Sometimes it's just a coincidence that he was found a job right away when he thought he had nothing to do.

He found Manager Wu and gathered a group of people to get things started.

After hanging up the phone, the county officials went to find the county head and his entourage.

He ran over to the county magistrate and told him that the place had been booked and he could come over for dinner.

The county head, who was chatting with someone, didn't say anything for the time being. But when he saw that it was lunchtime, he said to the leader who came down, "Sir, I just had someone make a reservation for a place to eat. Let's go and take a look later."

Huang Su nodded slightly upon hearing the county magistrate's words. Their main purpose in coming down this time was to inspect the work. Now that the necessary procedures had been completed and everything that needed to be seen had been seen, there was no harm in going out for a meal.

"Okay, thank you, County Chief. Let's go."

"No trouble at all," the county magistrate said, leading his men outside.

The group of more than a dozen people then left in a grand procession.

Zhao Sheng had already instructed his chefs to make preparations, and after making the call, they also sent him the menu. They could simply prepare according to the menu, while a few of them, who were more adventurous, were instructed by Zhao Sheng to have the chicken cooked in the kitchen.

The kitchen was bustling with activity, but by the time Huang Su and her group arrived, it was already mostly finished.

Zhao Sheng led Manager Wu out to greet the guests.

"Good morning, County Head, and all leaders. The private room is ready, and the dishes are almost ready as well. You can go upstairs now."

"Alright, let's go up now."

Huang Su is now undoubtedly the center of the team. As soon as he says he's going up, a bunch of people follow him up.

Manager Wu looked at the group of people in front of him and told the boss that he was going to check on the kitchen.

Zhao Sheng nodded. After all, he was the boss, and he could rest assured that Manager Wu would take care of the specific matters.

The county magistrate led Huang Su to sit at the table, and the group chatted for quite a while.

As the dishes were served one by one, the delicious food on the table failed to attract their attention. After all, people of their status were used to eating such hotel food all the time, so they were still chatting about various things and didn't pay much attention to the food.

The staff are the ones we can control the most.

Then a waiter brought out a dish of braised chicken with mushrooms, and the irresistible aroma immediately drew everyone's attention back to the main dish.

"Hmm, what smells so good?"

"This chicken smells so good, none of the other dishes smell this good."

"Indeed, it looks and smells delicious."

Hearing so many people talking, Huang Su also looked at the dish with curiosity.

"County Magistrate, does the place you chose still have its signature dishes? The chicken here looks delicious."

The county magistrate was puzzled when he heard this. He remembered eating here before, but he didn't recall having such delicious meat back then.

However, he still smiled and said, "Perhaps it's a new method invented by the chef. The aroma of this meat immediately attracts customers."

"Hmm," the group resumed their conversation, looking at the food in front of them and feeling a bit hungry.

Seeing that everyone's attention was on the food, and that she also wanted to eat, Huang Su said directly, "Let's eat first, everyone, or the food will get cold."

Upon hearing this, the group immediately sat down in their seats.

Huang Su knew that everyone here would be accommodating to him, so after sitting down, he immediately picked up the first dish, which was the fragrant chicken.
