Tycoon: I Have an Unlimited Modifier novel Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Chapter 136: Even Wei Xiaobao is Just a Little Brother

"What if I told you I have a way to make our restaurant’s food taste twice as good as any other?"

Seeing Yuan Li and the two assistant managers looking like they wanted to laugh but didn’t dare, Qi Sheng decided to head straight to the back kitchen and personally show them a thing or two.

The kitchen equipment was all top-of-the-line and fully stocked.

"I’ll personally make a hot pot for you, and show you where the name ’Spicy King’ comes from."

Qi Sheng followed the soup base recipe given to him by the system.

He added the freshly bought beef tallow, chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and other ingredients, producing a pot of vibrant, crimson-red soup base.

Just a whiff of it made one’s nose tingle.

Once the heat was on, the block of seasoning quickly melted, turning into a base of glistening red oil.

"It smells amazing!"

Yuan Li took a sniff and instantly felt a surge of anticipation.

It was far more fragrant than what she was used to smelling at Haidilao, and she couldn’t help but swallow.

"Just a heads-up, I’m making the ’explosively spicy’ version, which will be our signature spice level from now on."

"If anyone can’t handle the heat, just drink plenty of water. Don’t try to tough it out."

Qi Sheng methodically added the ingredients Gu Feng had bought into the pot.

The bubbling nine-square grid pot quickly cooked the ingredients, coating them in a thick layer of spicy oil.

"I’ll try it first."

Yuan Li had to admit, the aroma was truly incredible.

But as for the actual flavor, she’d have to taste it before drawing any conclusions.

"Hm?"

Yuan Li had picked up a piece of fatty beef. The quality of the meat was one thing, but the flavor was what truly mattered.

It was so much better than the beef tallow soup base at Haidilao!

And the spiciness was staggering.

Even Yuan Li, who normally had a high tolerance for spicy food, could feel sweat starting to form on her forehead, but it was an utterly satisfying burn.

"Boss, this soup base is absolutely divine!"

Yuan Li gave Qi Sheng a thumbs-up, her face full of admiration and awe.

In terms of flavor, she’d give their own restaurant a perfect 100. No need for modesty.

"So, what do you think now? Can our restaurant make it big?"

Qi Sheng teased Yuan Li with great interest.

Seeing her looking a bit embarrassed satisfied his own mischievous streak.

"Our restaurant will definitely be more popular than any Haidilao! If I can’t make that happen, you can take away my position as manager!"

Yuan Li made a solemn vow.

"As for the price, 199 yuan per person is the bottom line.

But my idea is for Spicy King to be a buffet.

As long as a customer pays 199 yuan, they can choose any item in the restaurant, provided they don’t waste food."

Qi Sheng took a sip of ice-cold coke and let out a satisfied burp.

"A buffet?"

Yuan Li was taken aback for a moment, then began to ponder it carefully.

’It’s not entirely out of the question.’

Generally, the biggest cost for a hot pot restaurant is the ingredients.

yuan per person wasn’t low for a hot pot buffet.

As long as it was popular enough, they could definitely drive down the cost of ingredients.
