Chapter 21 Contempt for the man at the top of the chain

Gao Yi, who had just arrived on the first day, had already finished most of the work. He completed the investigation, formulated a revised plan, and immediately implemented the new plan.

The first step in planning is to try the dishes.

Xiao Hei would come to the hotel several times every day because he wanted to get jobs, and the people staying in the hotel had no choice.

After getting into Xiao Hei's car and arriving at the famous Hua Xia Restaurant, Gao Yi had to taste the quality of the dishes that could attract Gray Horace.

At this time, you can no longer pretend to be a desperate poor man, you have to pretend to be a person with a little money.

Only when you are extremely poor do you need to work in restaurants for black people. If you have some savings, you can open a restaurant. This is normal logic.

We can't wait until dark because there is no electricity and we can't see clearly when it's dark to eat.

The famous dish of Hua Xia Restaurant is stewed chicken.

There were four stoves in total. None of them were in use when we came at noon, but now they were all lit, with dark iron pots placed on them.

The fuel was firewood, but there was no blower, so there was no cooking, only stewing, and the pot didn't have a lid, so the ashes fell into the pot.

The boss and chef took turns checking the four stoves. When he felt it was almost ready, he took the pot down directly, poured the contents directly into an aluminum basin, and then brought it to the waiting diners' tables.

There are a total of four tables, four stoves, four aluminum basins, and four tables for a total of eighteen guests.

The portion of the dish was not too small, half a chicken was stewed in one pot, and the soup was so thick that it seemed unappetizing.

Before seeing how the restaurant operated, Gao Yi decided to treat Xiao Hei to a meal. After seeing that the dishes here were priced and rationed, he felt that he had to treat Xiao Hei to a meal.

After all, Gao Yi and Xiao Hei were only two people, and the largest table had six people.

Those who can eat here are local wealthy people, and they eat the rice provided by the hotel.

There were also those who came to eat and brought their own staple food. Gao Yi took a look at it several times. The staple food they brought was a white paste. At first glance, it looked like ice cream. It was cassava. Gao Yi

Tried it in Sierra Leone.

Gao Yi and his friends' dishes arrived.

The hotel does not provide chopsticks, but it does provide spoons, but it doesn't matter, Gao Yi brought his own chopsticks.

"Eat, you're welcome."

There was a huge stainless steel spoon in the aluminum basin. Gao Yi poured some soup into his rice, then picked up a piece of chicken with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

The taste buds waiting for the impact suddenly felt a long-lost taste.

It is spicy and slightly sour, but the chicken has no peculiar smell and is slightly hard, but this is due to the quality of the chicken. The restaurant uses free-range chickens, so the chicken tastes quite good.

It actually tastes like that. It's really better than what I had in Sierra Leone.

Then what?

Then there is no more.

As a Chinese who stands at the top of the food chain and the top of the food despise chain, this dish can really only be regarded as edible, edible, okay, and make a living.

There is no distinction between superior and inferior eating habits. A southerner will most likely not be able to stand eating noodles every day. To break it down a bit, an old Guangdong won’t be able to stand eating Sichuan cuisine every day.

Gao Yi felt uncomfortable if he was asked to eat rice all the time, but if he was asked to eat sweet tofu, he would go crazy.

But the level of gourmet food must be differentiated regionally.

The food Gao Yi ate in Thailand was also quite delicious.

Gao Yi thinks the burger is also delicious.

Gao Yi thought the barbecue he had in Dubai was also very good.

Gao Yi also had a meal of sushi, and to be honest, he thought it was quite delicious.

The pizza is also delicious, and Gao Yi also likes the Korean barbecue.

but!

Please note this but!

All representative delicacies from all countries in the world are combined to form a foreign team, and China promises to send only one provincial team to compete.

Sichuan cuisine takes the lead, Shandong cuisine takes the lead, and the other teams sit back a little. Don’t serve Huaiyang or Hunan cuisine, just watch. It would be embarrassing to serve them all together.

With Gao Yi's limited knowledge and meager financial resources, he couldn't even eat all over the country, let alone the whole city in his hometown, but this still couldn't stop Gao Yi from becoming a man at the top of the food despise chain.

You will be at the top of the mountain, and you will have a panoramic view of the mountains.

This is how Gao Yi feels at the moment.

Taste it, judging from Gao Yi's superficial experience, this stewed chicken is not as good as the large plate chicken, not as good as Cangzhou hot pot chicken, not as good as yellow braised chicken, not as good as the iron pot stewed chicken he had in his hometown.

I won’t compare the ones I haven’t tried before, such as white chicken, three-cup chicken, etc. These are too high-end and cannot be compared.

After just one bite, Gao Yi gained confidence and then fell into deep thought.

What would you do if you opened a restaurant?

Considering the conditions here, the fuel is only firewood, there is no blower, and the firepower is not strong enough. Chicken is the most common ingredient, but there are definitely few seasonings, so the main dish is stewed chicken.

This restaurant also makes stewed chicken, so how can it beat its competitors?

Gao Yi doesn't know how to cook big plate chicken, braised chicken, and hot pot chicken. After much thought, Gao Yi seems to know only one trick, which is the stewed chicken that every family north of the Yellow River can cook.

If I had to give it a scientific name, it would be chicken stewed in a farmhouse iron pot with firewood.

To add some freshness, you can add pancakes stewed in Northeastern iron pots. The pancakes are not cornmeal pancakes or white flour pancakes, but cassava pancakes.

In addition to the freshness, local improvements are added, the stewed chicken is added with spicy food, and the cassava is added with sugar!

We also need to open the eyes of local people in terms of services.

You can add extra spice to it, and you can make the cassava pancakes incredibly sweet.

I don’t believe you can’t attract the target!

Gao Yi was just thinking, while Xiao Hei was just eating. When Gao Yi made up his mind, he looked up and found that Xiao Hei was putting rice mixed with soup into his mouth.

Although I was hungry, my appetite decreased a lot.

Gao Yi lowered his head and said calmly: "Is it delicious?"

“It’s delicious, thank you boss.”

Gao Yi didn't want to directly reveal his plan to open a store, so he just said lightly: "Do you know what's in this dish?"

"Chicken, cassava cubes, eggplant, and nothing else, boss."

Gao Yi nodded. He still wanted to find something to say, but he didn't know what to say.

"Well, do you only like chicken? Why don't I see you eating other meats?"

"Chicken is cheap, but mutton and beef are too expensive. The weather is very hot, and we have no electricity or refrigerator here. The mutton and beef will go bad after a day after being sold out. The chickens are kept in cages. You can catch one whenever you want to eat it. Boss

.”

Gao Yi asked casually, but Xiao Hei unexpectedly gave a professional answer.

"It makes sense, it makes sense. The soil and water support the people, so this chicken is made... well, it can only be considered edible."

Xiao Hei smiled and said: "Every Chinese boss says that."

Gao Yi suddenly said: "Do you think I want to open a restaurant..."

Xiao Hei stopped, looked at Gao Yi, and said in surprise: "Here? Boss, we can't afford it if it's too expensive, and you can't make it if it's too cheap."

Gao Yi nodded and said, "How much does this meal cost?"

"About ten dollars."

Gao Yi was surprised and said: "So cheap?"

Compared with the price of other things, this meal is really cheap.

Xiao Hei said helplessly: "Everything we cannot produce is expensive, and what we produce is very cheap. Boss, you are here because our wood is the cheapest. This is called exploitation, and it is called the industrial scissor gap."

.”

Gao Yi almost fell off the chair. He looked at Xiao Hei and said in extreme astonishment: "Who taught you this?"

"A boss said that they were like this before, but they changed from purchasing chicken feathers to producing small commodities, and then selling the commodities all over the world."

Xiaohei shrugged philosophically and said: "He opened a store here for six years, and then... he left. Now there are sixteen chain stores in Monrovia. He is a good man, except for being stingy.

, he has no shortcomings.”

Gao Yi said in a daze: "You...you are quite powerful."

Xiao Hei whispered: "When my boss left, he sold me the car he had been driving for six years, which cost me six years of salary. Now I have a high income and respect, so it's not that I'm great, it's

My boss is great."

Gao Yi's thoughts were interrupted. After being stunned for a while, he finally said: "Then do you think I can make money by opening a restaurant whose main customer group is Chinese people who come to do business?"

Xiao Hei was confused. He glanced at Gao Yi and finally said in a low voice: "You invited me to dinner, so I'll tell you the truth. There are only a dozen Chinese bosses in this city now, coming and going.

At most, there were less than twenty people there. They were all engaged in the lumber business, and no one lived here all the time. Also, it was the dry season, so the roads were a little easier to walk, but the rainy season was about to come, and the dirt roads would be rough.

If it turns into a dirt road, lumber cannot be transported, and all the bosses will leave."

Gao Yi didn't open the restaurant to make money, so he needed Xiao Hei to say he could open it, but Xiao Hei gave him all the reasons why he couldn't open the restaurant.

Gao Yi fell into deep thought, and then he whispered: "Well, I want to open a restaurant for the Chinese people and charge them at least one hundred dollars for a meal. At least, they are all rich people, so I will charge two hundred and three dollars."

They can afford it, so I think this hotel can still be opened."

Xiao Hei shrugged and said, "Your business is your judgment and your decision."

Gao Yi said confidently: "I just don't know if there is a suitable place to open a restaurant. The various kitchen utensils and seasonings needed to open a restaurant can be bought and shipped from other places. Do you know a suitable place to open a restaurant?"

Xiao Hei saw that Gao Yi really wanted to open a restaurant, and he asked curiously: "Have you ever opened a restaurant before? Are you a chef?"

Gao Yi nodded and said confidently: "Yes, I am a chef."

Xiao Hei smiled, showing his white teeth and said: "My former boss gave his store to a Chinese for a high price before he left, and then, here... you know, this is his best

Awesome place.”

Gao Yi was a little surprised, because when talking about the hotel, Xiao Hei talked about his former boss with such admiration.

Xiao Hei stretched out two greasy hands and said: "There are two stores, one is the largest grocery store in Suakoko, and the other is a restaurant. After this place was occupied by the general, the restaurant could no longer operate, so the new owner closed it down."
