Chapter 138: The Master Chef Competition

“Forgive me for being blunt.” Master Qin was experienced and knowledgeable, so he quickly hit the nail on the head. “Although your food tastes good, can you guarantee that the goods you hand over will have the same taste?”

Yu Wan smiled and said, “Master Qin, don’t worry. If the guest isn’t satisfied, you can return all the goods to me.”

Yu Feng looked at Yu Wan. What nonsense was this girl talking about? How could something that was sold be returned? There would always be people who were dissatisfied, or perhaps Master Qin himself didn’t want it anymore. Then, he could just find an excuse to dismiss the tofu that they had worked so hard to make?

“Young Master Yu, do you have anything to say?” Master Qin was indeed someone who could move freely in the Merchant Union. His ability to read people’s expressions was unparalleled.

Yu Feng opened his mouth and looked at his sister.

Yu Wan smiled at Yu Feng, who swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. “Nothing. I just want to ask if you guys are hungry? Do you want to eat something else?”

“I want another plate!” Qin Zixu raised his hand that was holding the chopsticks.

Yu Feng : “…” Y-you’re really not polite.

There was a lot in the kitchen, so Yu Feng went to get it. Qin Zixu couldn’t wait and followed him.

Master Xiao Wu cleared his throat seriously. In the end, he couldn’t resist the temptation of the stinky tofu. He put down his pride and went to the kitchen to snatch food from Qin Zixu.

For a moment, only Yu Wan and Master Qin were left in the central room. Even when facing the man alone, Yu Wan did not show any signs of panic.

Master Qin couldn’t help but think highly of this little village girl. “Forgive me for being blunt.”

There was also a catchphrase. Yu Wan had a second impression of Master Qin.

“Master Qin, please speak,” Yu Wan said generously.

Master Qin looked at Yu Wan deeply and said, “Miss Yu doesn’t look like the Yu family.”

Yu Wan said, “My father wasn’t born by my grandfather and grandmother.”

Yu Wan’s answer was beyond Master Qin’s expectations. Of course, Master Qin was not surprised that she was not a member of the Yu family, but that she had told him so frankly. This little girl was really different in every way…

“Master Qin.” This time, it was Yu Wan’s turn to speak. “We provide a thousand pounds a day, ten copper coins per pound. What do you think of this price, Master Qin?”

“Ten copper coins?” Master Qin frowned. “The most expensive old tofu on the market is only worth four to five copper coins. Aren’t you asking for too much?”

Yu Wan said confidently, “How can the tofu on the market compare to the tofu I sell? Just based on the fact that this is an exclusive business, it’s definitely worth this price. Moreover, Master Qin is such a classy person, so the Drunken Immortal Pavilion must be doing a big business. If you buy the stinky tofu for ten copper coins, you can sell it for one or two taels. Why should you care about the purchase price?”

“You girl!” Master Qin laughed. He was a businessman, not a robber. How could he sell something that costs ten copper coins for a hundred times the price? He could tell that this girl was even more unyielding than him. She would rather not sell than getting the price she did not want. Master Qin weighed the pros and cons. He didn’t refuse, nor was he in a hurry to agree.

Yu Wan glanced at him and said, “Master Qin, do you have any other concerns?”

Master Qin rubbed his chin.

Yu Wan paused and asked, “Is it about clearing my uncle’s name? What method does Master Qin plan to use?”

Master Qin said, “Have you heard of the Master Chef Competition once every three years?”

Yu Wan shook her head. She had not been here for long, and the most news she had heard was from the White Jade Restaurant. However, Shopkeeper Cui and Miss Bai had never mentioned anything about the competition.

Actually, it was not their fault for not mentioning it. It was just that in such a competition, White Jade Restaurant was not even qualified to watch, let alone participate.

Master Qin smiled and looked at Yu Wan. “There’s still half a month before the competition. According to what I know, the champion of the previous competitions came from Tianxiang Restaurant. What do you think if it’s your uncle this time?”

These words were said lightly, as if Uncle could win as long as he went. Yu Wan understood that Master Qin was tempting them to participate in the competition. Speaking of which, Master Qin was really a sly old fox. If Uncle wanted to participate in the competition, he would most likely use the name of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. If he could defeat the Tianxiang Restaurant, the Drunken Immortal Pavilion would also become famous. This was simply perfect publicity.

Yu Wan said indifferently, “Master Qin, you’re doing this for your Drunken Immortal Pavilion, right?”

Master Qin generously admitted, “The world is bustling with activity for the sake of benefits. I’m doing this for my Drunken Immortal Pavilion, and you’re doing it for your uncle. We’re taking what we need. We don’t clash.”

Yu Wan said, “That’s true, but you didn’t say anything at the beginning. It took you a long time to sell the medicine in the gourd. I don’t feel good. I keep having the feeling that I’ve been deceived.”

“Haha!” Master Qin couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s my fault! I shouldn’t have used the same method I used in the business world on Miss Yu. I can’t change my habit after so many years. I hope Miss Yu can forgive me.”

With that, he cupped his fists at Yu Wan. He could admit his mistake openly. It was much better than being stubborn.

Yu Wan paused and said bluntly, “I don’t like others tricking me. The business matter won’t change.We’ll talk about the competition later.”

Master Qin was slightly stunned. “Miss Yu…”

Yu Wan stood up. “I still have something on, so I won’t be accompanying Master Qin.”

“Sigh!” Master Qin didn’t expect this little girl to fall out with him so easily. Just as he was about to ask her to stay, Uncle and Aunt entered the house.

Aunt introduced, “That’s Master Qin.”

Master Qin turned around and saw a man holding his walking stick and not walking properly. It must be that Chef Yu, right?

Master Qin went forward to greet him. After some small talk, Master Qin told him about the competition. “… I hope Chef Yu…”

Uncle raised his chin and said, “Didn’t my Ah Wan say we’ll talk about it later? Then let’s talk about it later!”

With that, he left without giving him any face!

Master Qin, who was speechless: “…”

… .

In the room, Yu Feng pulled Yu Wan and whispered, “You really don’t agree? I think Master Qin is right. That’s indeed a good chance to clear my father’s name, and it’s the only chance.”

Yu Wan smiled mysteriously and said, “Isn’t it also the only chance for the Drunken Immortal Pavilion?”

Didn’t Master Qin say that the Master Chef Competition was held once every three years? If they missed this opportunity to become famous, they would have to wait for another three years. Although other methods could gradually make the restaurant famous, how could they compare to the competition?

“Big Brother, they’re more anxious about this than us,” Yu Wan said.

“What do you want to do?” Yu Feng asked.

Yu Wan smiled and said, “Who asked him to scheme against me? If he makes me feel uncomfortable, I’ll make his money bag feel uncomfortable.”

The corners of Yu Feng’s mouth twitched. Who was the profiteer?

… .

Master Qin could tell that in the Yu family’s business, the person who really made the decision was that little girl. The Yu family really doted on this girl. However… didn’t he dote on that little brat too?

Master Qin felt that he couldn’t give the little girl too much face. Otherwise, she would take a mile if he gave her an inch. Of course, he wouldn’t threaten her with the business of stinky tofu. That kind of method was too degrading and would lower his status.

Master Qin decided to leave the little girl alone first. He didn’t believe that the little girl could really keep her cool. The little girl would definitely come and beg him!

Master Qin planned to wait for Master Xiao Wu and his nephew to come out before returning home. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, the two of them did not come out of the kitchen. He went to the kitchen to call the two of them, only to see the two of them sweeping through the kitchen as if they had not eaten for eight hundred years!

“We’re leaving,” Master Qin said, suppressing his anger.

“Oh.” Master Xiao Wu tactfully got into the car.

Qin Zixu refused to leave.

“His tofu is really delicious!”

“The braised meat is also delicious!”

“Crab roe pastry is super delicious!”

Are you the reincarnation of a hungry ghost? Eat, eat, eat! Didn’t I feed you well usually!? Master Qin’s face darkened as he forcefully dragged the little brat, who had embarrassed him so much, into the carriage.

The little brat went up but Master Xiao Wu slipped down.

He pulled Master Xiao Wu up again, but Qin Zixu quietly came down again.

Master Qin was almost angered to death by these two fellows!

… .

When Master Qin left, he had left an address. His goal was naturally to ask Yu Wan to come personally. However, he was disappointed. He waited for five days, but she didn’t even come.

On the other hand, there was news from the Tianxiang Restaurant. Chef Bao, who had once won the championship thrice in a row and had long retired, had been invited back by the Tianxiang Restaurant!

It seemed that the Tianxiang Restaurant had put in a lot of effort to make a comeback.

Master Qin also had many good chefs in his hands, and he didn’t lack Uncle. However, once Chef Bao appeared, everyone had no chance.
