Zhou Muqing led Shen Zhu into a private room.
The two of them had just sat down, and Zhou Muqing went straight to the point: "I heard that Lady Shen's culinary skills are superb, my Hundred Fragrance House is considered the best restaurant in the entire town, and I am willing to pay a high price to invite you here as the head chef, I wonder what you think?"
Ever since he knew that Shen Zhu had rejected Villa's invitation, he wanted to persuade her to become the head chef of the Hundred Fragrance House.
Shen Zhu took a sip of his tea and laughed.
"I am sorry Boss Zhou, but I am carrying a body now, so it is not convenient. I am afraid I will have to betray your kindness."
A hint of disappointment flashed across Zhou Muqing's eyes, and his gaze swept across Shen Zhu's protruding stomach, expressing his understanding.
After Shen Zhu finished speaking, her beautiful eyes flashed with a trace of cunning.
"Although I am currently carrying my body and am unable to be a chef in the Hundred Fragrance House, I have another method that can make the Boss Zhou's Hundred Fragrance House stand out in all of the restaurants."
Zhou Muqing's eyes lit up, "What method?" His interest was immediately piqued.
This businessman naturally liked to chat with smart people.
"Although this Hundred Fragrance House is an old brand, the style of the dishes are not much different from the other restaurants. Just a chef with excellent culinary skills is of no use, and they also have their own unique dishes. The quality of a dish depends not only on the chef's skills, but also on a reasonable menu."
Shen Zhu said.
Zhou Muqing pondered for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Although you say that, it's just that you cannot pass down the recipe to others …"
"If Boss Zhou trusts me, why not work with me?"
Shen Zhu naturally knew what he was worried about. Forget about where he should go to find this unique dish, even if he did find it, the other party would definitely not sell the recipe to him.
"Oh? What does Lady Shen want? " Zhou Muqing raised his eyebrows, feeling a little curious.
Towards this girl who came alone to talk about cooperation without a shred of cowardice, he felt a bit more appreciation.
"My daughter is not talented and is willing to recommend me to provide recipes for Hundred Fragrance House." Shen Zhu smiled confidently, "I believe that these dishes will definitely be popular."
Zhou Muqing looked at Shen Zhu thoughtfully for a moment, then nodded: "Alright, I wonder how much you are willing to sell this recipe for?"
Shen Zhu shook his head: "Since I said it's a cooperation, I naturally cannot let Boss Zhou take the risk. Then, after the dishes in the menu are released in the shop, the profits will be eight on one.
When she saw Zhou Muqing's pitiful expression just now, she had already analyzed the pros and cons of this collaboration well — —
Ignoring the fact that she knew that the ingredients needed to find Abner to make the recipe, just by saying that she had bought the recipe off of it in one go, Zhou Muqing would definitely not buy it if the price was too high.
Zhou Muqing lowered his eyes and thought, doing this would also be risky, but if he really could earn money, then his Hundred Fragrance House would be the only one.
"Lady Shen is indeed different from ordinary women." Zhou Muqing reached out and lightly tapped the table, and said in a low voice: "Alright, I'll listen to you."
He ordered for a pen to be taken out, paper and ink, and wrote down two contracts with a pen.
The two of them signed their names on the contract and pressed their hand seals. Each of them kept their copies.
This meant that their cooperation had officially taken effect.
Keeping the contract, Shen Zhu swiftly wrote the menu down for Zhou Muqing.
Today, she only gave him one dish, which was the Mab Tofu that she made for Manager Song to eat last time.
In this era, the production of tofu was not high and the method was relatively simple.
Thus, when Manager Song first tasted the Mudskin Tofu that Shen Zhu had made, he felt that it was pretty good.
He had even mentioned it to Zhou Muqing later on and specifically made the chef in the shop try it out according to the perverted look on his face that day. The taste was too different from what Shen Zhu had done.
This was also the main reason why Zhou Muqing agreed to sign the contract with Shen Zhu in the end.
The famous chefs that he hired at a high price couldn't do it!
She added a lot of chopped chillies to Shen Zhu's Mudskin. After being fried with hot oil, it was both fragrant and spicy.
There were very few people here who would put chilies into the dishes, so the chef at Hundred Fragrance House naturally wouldn't have thought that Shen Zhu's Muppet Tofu would contain chilli.
Shen Zhu liked to study delicious food, but he would not teach everyone about his future survival skills.
She ordered red peppers from Abu, told the cooks what to do, and left as the main dish.
At the end of the day, there were only a few dishes.
However, the dishes on Shen Zhu's side were from the spatial space, which was very different from the vegetables that were normally grown.
After Shen Zhu said his goodbyes, the chefs from Hundred Fragrance House all fell into deep thought. It was clearly the same procedure.
What could he do? Keep your head down and practice.
Shen Zhu did not know that after he made a fuss like this, every chef in Hundred Fragrance House had become suspicious of life. With a heart full of joy, he rushed back to the manor, waiting for Su Zongwen to know her reaction after signing the Hundred Fragrance House.
