After the cups and plates were messed up, Liu Yan began to ask for everyone's opinion. This time, the villagers were completely convinced and gave them a thumbs up.
"The real effect will depend on how you perform tonight." Liu Yan had an evil smile on his face. He had never experienced that soaring origin energy before, but just from the medicinal ingredients he had prepared, he knew that this group of people might have to deal with something tonight.
Liu Yan knew that this was far more than just that. There were some precious herbs, such as the antler tortoise shell. Even if the two meals added up, it would still be worth it, but he knew how to keep everyone in suspense.
The next day, Liu Yan woke up very early. After having breakfast, he stayed at the entrance of the restaurant. Holding his mobile phone, he began to surf the internet for information regarding the establishment of the restaurant.
"Liu Yan!" The next-door neighbor, Liu Erzhu, hurriedly ran in and went straight to his face: "You made your Essence soar last night. How did you do it? Teach me!"
"Yo, Uncle Er Zhu, looks like it was very effective." Liu Yan burst into laughter.
"Of course not!" "Uncle is getting stronger and stronger too, last night he really …"
"Cough cough!" "Enough!" Seeing that it wasn't suitable for children, Liu Yan hurriedly interrupted him. Shaking his head, he said, "Uncle, this dish is too expensive. It would be a bit of a waste if you don't pay the price of it."
"So expensive? "Then forget it." Liu Erzhu's face was full of regret, but he still praised, "But the effect is really good. Maybe those rich people are more suitable."
This dish would be very popular in the eyes of men, but he did not know what the actual market would be like. If he really wanted to make this dish, he would need at least one catty of carp, and that alone would cost around two to three hundred. Adding the other ingredients, the cost of a dish would go up to four hundred.
After Liu Erzhu left, a few villagers came over in succession, all asking about the origin energy soaring into the sky. Liu Yan didn't hide anything and told everyone one by one that since they were all villagers, it would be beneficial for him to stay in the village in the future.
When it was almost noon, several villagers suddenly came in with food in their hands. Seeing the few villagers who had come in yesterday to eat, Liu Yan immediately understood what they were doing.
"Liu Yan, I heard that you can make that kind of medicinal food. Eating it is good for your body. Can you help us with the dishes?" We've never tried it, and we've heard that it worked pretty well. " A villager opened his mouth and put on a fawning smile.
"Of course not." Liu Yan was overjoyed. After all, this was how everyone valued him. As long as he did not cook a top-notch medicinal meal, ordinary medicinal herbs would not cost him much.
He called Yang Xiaohu over. Seeing how lively the house was, Yang Xiaohu was very happy as well. The two orphans were gradually becoming more and more popular in the village because of Liu Yan's mastery of medicine.
In the afternoon, the two of them once again prepared a sumptuous lunch, which was still light and light. However, after the villagers passed down their opinions, no one had any objections. They didn't wait for Liu Yan to introduce them, and began to try them out.
"Liu Yan, where did all that Essence go? Why didn't you do it?" The others were also looking forward to it.
Liu Yan laughed and said, "This dish is not cheap and its cost is very high. You guys can go ask around. How much is one catty for a turtle and how much is one tael for deer antlers?"
"Liu Yan is treating you guys to a meal out of goodwill. Don't treat him as a free restaurant. If you want to eat good food, buy it yourself. Otherwise, just pay up." Yang Xiaohu was not polite at all.
"Yes, yes, yes. Let's all eat. We'll discuss this later and get two old turtles over to Liu Yan for him. Let's have a meal together." Someone spoke up, and everyone continued to move their chopsticks.
After having lunch, everyone started discussing how they should gather the money to buy the turtle together. After asking Liu Yan about the cost, they finally decided to spend fifty yuan on one person, one portion to buy the turtle, and the other portion to pay for Liu Yan's hardships.
He also felt it was funny. For the sake of this energy, everyone was going all out.
Not long after everyone had their meal and left, word of the village also began to spread. In the afternoon, there were people who came to the clinic to chat with Liu Yan. It seemed like they wanted to get a free dinner.
"It's impossible for us to eat for free. If you want to eat, bring the dishes and money here. Liu Yan will make medicinal food for all of you." Yang Xiaohu chased them away without Liu Yan saying anything.
In the evening, the villagers had indeed brought in one catty of turtle, which they spent three hundred and forty yuan on. At night, the villagers had indeed brought in one catty, which they spent three hundred and forty yuan, which they gave Liu Yan only one hundred and one yuan.
His spirit energy soared into the sky and into a large basin. When one pot was placed in front of him, everyone crazily fought over it. All the other dishes had also been swept away, leaving only a thin piece of skin on the carp shell.
Another night passed. He wasn't sure if he was mistaken, but when Liu Yan was sleeping, he seemed to have heard someone howl in the village in a daze.
Early the next morning, not long after Liu Yan opened the restaurant for business, his house was blocked by a steady stream of villagers. They all begged Liu Yan to get them a medicinal meal as well.
"What are we doing here, rebelling!" The village chief, Zhao Jianguo, shouted from outside, causing everyone to open up a path.
"Sun Fugui paid it back. Village Head, could it be that Sun Fugui lost it back? You're not able to receive it back, so you're a bit emotional." Yang Xiaohu grinned at him and began to mock him.
"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting! "Brat, your father will sue you for slander!" Zhao Jianguo was furious, but Yang Xiaohu did not seem to care. Everyone was very clear about the matter between him and Sun Fugui, it was just that they did not say it out loud in front of him.
"Village Chief, if you also wish to freeload, then just say it. How about you take the lead? We are all basking in your brilliance." Some villagers teased.
Zhao Jianguo snorted, "As the village chief, can I do such a thing? Liu Yan, let me remind you, you shouldn't think that just because you have a few gold coins, you are already used to idling around.
"Thank you for your concern, Village Chief. I know what I'm doing." Liu Yan said indifferently. He was extremely fed up with Zhao Jianguo's pretentious appearance.
"Don't look so sloppy. If you want to open a clinic, then do it properly. Don't make such a mess. If you really want to be a chef, I'll introduce you to a job. I have a friend who runs a restaurant in the county city." Zhao Jianguo slightly raised his head.
"Thank you, Village Head. When I consider changing my career, I will definitely come looking for you." A stiff smile appeared on Liu Yan's face.
"Mm, I was thinking about it this morning. You're not young anymore, so you should earn some money and get married." Zhao Jianguo let out a satisfied smile and put on a mighty act. After saying a few more words, he turned around and left.
"This bastard!" After Yang Xiaohu scolded him, Liu Yan immediately pushed him away. There were so many villagers around, so he had to be careful not to turn back and complain.
"Fellow villagers, this is not a free restaurant. If you want to eat the medicinal food that I make, then come and buy your own. I'll work hard to cook for you." Liu Yan's attitude was resolute. He couldn't start a loss-making business now. Previously, it was just a test, but now the results are out. It would already be impressive if he didn't charge them money.
"Bring the dishes over at noon, otherwise we won't talk." Yang Xiaohu's face was stern.
"Didn't they say to treat you to a meal the day before yesterday? Why do you need more money now? "
There were some villagers who shook their heads and sighed. When Liu Yan heard this, he was both furious and helpless. There was an old saying that goes: one does not have to suffer unfairly in order to reap the benefits.
"I'm treating because I'm treating, not because I'm treating every day. You guys can treat as well, but why haven't you invited me before?" As for those who did not benefit from this, they were actually not close with Liu Yan as well. Thus, he finally pulled his face down and coldly replied.
Since they had already said so, they didn't want to waste anymore time and quickly left.
Even so, there were still people who came over at noon. However, they didn't come here to get their food out brazenly, but bought the dishes honestly. There were even chickens, ducks, pigs, and sheep.
At this point, Liu Yan was completely convinced that his reputation could affect many people's opinions, and his confidence in opening a medicinal cuisine became more and more plentiful.
There were many dishes here, but Liu Yan didn't keep any of them for himself. He prepared all of them and filled the entire table with dishes. Everyone's eyes were gleaming.
"Everyone, it's time to eat. You don't have a pair of chopsticks, right?" A lazy voice came from outside. Sun Lin, who was wearing a green cotton jacket, walked in unsteadily.
"Sun Lin, your dog nose is really sharp."
"You brat, you previously beat up Liu Yan. You sure are thick-skinned. Your father is convinced that you dared to come here to eat."
Seeing Sun Lin walk in, the villagers all burst out in laughter.
Liu Yan glanced at Sun Lin and subconsciously moved his previously injured left arm. However, due to the treatment of the Life and Death Art, it had now recovered.
"I've already paid up. I've already said I would be modest. We're already even, what else do you have? Liu Yan, right?" Sun Lin laughed and pointed to his left arm. "I can see that you've been busy treating yourself these past two days. Your arm seems fine too. Did you set me up that day?"
"I'm fine. It's because my medical skills are good, but that doesn't mean my hand isn't injured." Liu Yan said calmly.
"Alright, you're awesome. I've really underestimated you before, you're quite capable. Knowing how to treat a big guy to a meal, I can be considered as a village member. I'll have a meal here, isn't it?" As Sun Lin said this, he pulled over Liu Yan's chair and forced himself to sit.
"Liu Yan, we were the ones who paid for the meal, so let Sun Lin stay for a meal. He only has two chopsticks, and both of them belong to the same village. It would be good to be friendly with him in the future." Those who had a good relationship with the Sun family immediately got up to speak up for Sun Lin.
"Eat, I don't mind. You guys eat slowly." He was extremely disgusted by Sun Lin. For this meal, he would definitely not sit down and eat at the same table as him.
