The cabbage was nothing special, but the red sauce on the cabbage was obviously new.
The two of them quickly started eating.
As soon as the spicy cabbage entered their mouths, the taste instantly exploded on the tip of the tongue. It was stimulating and refreshing.
After eating one piece, the two of them didn’t say anything. Soon, they couldn’t help but pick up a second piece.
After finishing the third piece, Manager Liang stopped.
Then, he couldn’t help but fan his mouth with his hand, trying to relieve the spiciness.
However, before it could be relieved, he actually started to crave for it again.
Just as he was about to reach out for the fourth piece, Chef Liu picked up the plate and moved it away from Manager Liang.
Manager Liang frowned and immediately looked at Chef Liu.
“Yue’er said that this can be used as an ingredient. I want to keep some for later!”
Even though he said that, Chef Liu’s eyes were looking at the spicy cabbage greedily. The words “1 want to keep it all for myself” were written all over his face.
He never knew that cabbage could be so delicious.
This taste was really too strange. It was refreshing and had a strong aftertaste.
However, he couldn’t stop eating it.
Manager Liang glared at him.
However, he remembered that Lin Xiaoyue and Zhou Shi were still around, so he didn’t argue with Chef Liu.
After glancing at Chef Liu, he finally put down his chopsticks and looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
“Yue’er, your spicy cabbage is indeed not bad! Can you really supply them during winter?” He asked.
There was a shortage of vegetables in winter. It would be great if Ruyi Restaurant had such a dish.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled. “Of course. If the spicy cabbage was stored properly, it could be stored for a year. It’s the season to produce cabbages now. We should take advantage of this time to make more. It’s enough to last until next year.” When spring arrived, the new batch of chili would also be ready. She could continue to make them then.
Manager Liang’s eyes lit up.
“You said that this spicy cabbage can be used as seasoning?”
“Yes.” Lin Xiaoyue nodded.
“Then, can you…”
“There is a free stove in the kitchen. Why don’t you come with me and try making a few dishes with this spicy cabbage?” Chef Liu suddenly interrupted.
“Sure!” Lin Xiaoyue agreed readily.
She picked up the box on the coffee table.
“There’s more spicy cabbage in here?” Manager Liang hurriedly asked.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and nodded. “Yes.”
Manager Liang’s face lit up as he immediately looked at Chef Liu.
“Old Liu, leave the plate in your hand.” He hadn’t had enough yet.
Chef Liu was reluctant to do so.
When he saw Lin Xiaoyue smiling at him, he placed the plate back in front of Manager Liang.
“Alright. Take Yue’er to the kitchen. I’ll wait here with Mrs. Hei.” Manager Liang glanced at Chef Liu.
Chef Liu pursed his lips and left with Lin Xiaoyue.
In the kitchen, Chef Liu arranged for a waiter to help with the fire and watch Lin Xiaoyue cook.
Lin Xiaoyue shredded some meat, then prepared some ginger, onions, and garlic. She also cut some spicy cabbage and put them into the pot.
After a while, she made shredded pork with spicy cabbage.
“If you have white rice, bring it. You and Manager Liang can try it together.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“Yes I do!” Chef Liu hurriedly said.
He instructed a waiter to serve the dishes and another waiter to get the rice before leaving with Lin Xiaoyue.
The two of them went upstairs. Not long after they entered, a waiter brought the food over.
Manager Liang and Chef Liu took the bowls and chopsticks. After they served the food, they couldn’t wait to start eating.
Then, they realized that the shredded pork with spicy cabbage tasted even more refreshing with rice. It was so delicious that they almost couldn’t stop. The two of them finished the bowl of rice.
When Manager Liang wanted to get a second bowl, he noticed Lin Xiaoyue and Zhou Shi’s expressions.
Realizing that he had lost his composure, Manager Liang finally stopped.
“Leave half for me.”
Chef Liu glanced at Manager Liang and replied with an “okay” before continuing to eat.
He thought to himself, “fortunately, he’s a chef and not a manager.”
It was really tiring to maintain a respectable image.
Manager Liang looked at Lin Xiaoyue and Zhou Shi.
“The spicy cabbage is great! We’ll have them!” Manager Liang said.
Zhou Shi immediately looked at Lin Xiaoyue, her eyes filled with joy.
“However, 1 have one condition.” Manager Liang suddenly said.
Lin Xiaoyue paused.
“Please tell us.”
A hint of hesitation flashed across Manager Liang’s face.
“Let us be your business partner. In addition, you have to sell all the spicy cabbages you make to us..”
