The lights in Wang's Hotel are soft and warm.

The tables and chairs in the store are all made of fine mahogany, and the chair backs are carefully carved with lifelike flower and bird patterns, with smooth lines and exquisite craftsmanship.

The tabletop was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the quaint parchment lamp above. The light shone through the lampshade, emitting a warm glow.

On the walls of the store, there are paintings and calligraphy by famous people hanging, with the brush strokes flowing and the fragrance of ink filling the air.

There is a blue and white porcelain vase in the corner, with a few beautiful flowers in it, adding a bit of vitality and elegance to the whole space.

As usual, Lou Xiao'e and her son Li Xiao stepped into this familiar and intoxicating place.

Lou Xiao'e was wearing a royal blue cheongsam embroidered with exquisite peony patterns. She had a graceful figure and elegant manners, and every step she took revealed the charm of a mature woman.

Li Xiaoze was wearing a fashionable sportswear, exuding youthful vitality.

Qin Huairu came up to her with a big smile on her face, "Sister Lou, we have new dishes in our restaurant today, namely 'Splendid Lotus Fish', 'Emerald Pearl Balls', and 'Golden Crispy Duck'."

When Li Xiao heard this, his eyes lit up instantly and he rubbed his hands excitedly, "Mom, it sounds great, let's try it right away."

Lou Xiao'e nodded slightly, with the corner of her mouth raised, "Then order some and try it."

However, beneath her seemingly calm appearance, her heart was surging with anticipation.

While waiting for the food to be served, Li Xiao kept twisting his body in his seat, staring at the direction of the kitchen, muttering:

"Why don't you come up? I can't wait any longer."

His heartbeat seemed to speed up as time passed, and every second seemed so long.

Lou Xiao'e gently picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. She seemed calm, but deep down she was secretly looking forward to this new dish that she had never tasted before.

Her thoughts drifted back to the good times she spent at Wang's Quanxi Restaurant as a child, and the familiar smell seemed to linger on her nose.

Soon, the new dishes were served.

The "Splendid Hibiscus Fish" has a body like a blooming hibiscus, and its tender fish meat glows attractively under the light.

Li Xiao couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of "Jinxiu Furong Fish" and put it into his mouth. In an instant, his eyes widened, as if his soul was struck by this delicious taste.

"Mom, try it quickly. The fish is so tender and smooth that it melts in your mouth. The sauce is rich and fragrant, with a slight sweet and sour taste. It's so delicious!"

Lou Xiao'e elegantly picked up a piece of fish and gently put it into her mouth. After savoring it carefully, an intoxicated look appeared on her face. "It is indeed delicious. The texture is as delicate as silk, and the taste is rich and layered. It is wonderful."

Li Xiao picked up another "Emerald Pearl Ball", took a bite, and said incoherently: "This ball is soft, chewy, and the filling is juicy. It's much better than those made by those international kitchens in Hong Kong."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, "Yes, the taste of home still makes people feel warm and satisfied."

"Mom, the food is so delicious, you have to invest more in this restaurant so that it can get better and better." Li Xiao swallowed the food in his mouth, his eyes shining with anticipation.

Lou Xiao'e frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. She thought back to her days in Hong Kong. Although she had tasted a variety of delicacies, she still lacked the warmth and familiarity of her hometown.

She knows very well that Wang's Hotels is not just a restaurant to her, but also a place of childhood memories and emotional sustenance.

After careful consideration, she finally made up her mind, "Son, you are right, this Wang's full-line hotel is worth investing in."

Lou Xiao'e looked at the table full of delicacies and sighed in her heart: "This Wang's Quanxi Restaurant is always able to give people surprises. Every dish seems to be a work of art."

Li Xiao's mouth was full of food, but he didn't forget to say, "Mom, let's eat here every day from now on, and we won't go anywhere else."

Lou Xiao'e said lightly, "You are just a kid, you only know how to eat. But this taste is really unforgettable."

After tasting these new dishes, guests at other tables also praised them highly. An old man squinted his eyes and savored the "Jinxiu Furong Fish" carefully, with a satisfied smile on his face, "This fish is really cooked perfectly. I have eaten fish all my life, but I have never tasted such a unique flavor."

The young man next to him was eating the "Golden Crispy Duck" with big mouthfuls.
While eating, he said to his companion: "This duck has crispy skin and tender meat. It's so delicious. I have to eat more."

Another lady picked up a "Jade Pearl Pill"
I took a bite and gave the waiter a thumbs up.

"These meatballs are so delicious. Your Wang's restaurants are really getting better and better."

At this time, Qin Huairu came over and asked, "Sister Lou, are you satisfied with the meal?"

Li Xiao said quickly: "Satisfied, satisfied, so delicious! This new dish is simply a delicacy on earth."

Lou Xiao'e also said: "This new dish is really excellent. Thank you for your hard work."

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "As long as you are satisfied, please come often. This 'Jinxiu Furong Fish' is a new attempt by our chef. I didn't expect it to be so popular."

As the night deepened, Lou Xiao'e and Li Xiao left Wang's Hotel with satisfaction.

As they walked down the street, Li Xiao said excitedly, "Mom, I think we can promote the new dishes of all Wang's restaurants so that more people will know about them."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "Well, that's a good idea. However, we can't forget our friends in Hong Kong. We should bring them here to try it if we have the chance."

"Yes, Mom, I guarantee that they will praise it after eating it." Li Xiao said with his hands dancing.

The streets are brightly lit.

Pedestrians are hurrying, some look tired, some are smiling.

Street vendors were shouting and selling all kinds of snacks and gadgets.

Lou Xiao'e and Li Xiao were in a particularly good mood, and their pace seemed particularly relaxed.

After returning home, Lou Xiao'e sat on the sofa, her thoughts still immersed in the delicious food of Wang's Restaurant.

She recalled the scene of eating at Wang's Quanxi Restaurant with her family when she was a child, and her heart was filled with emotion.

"This investment is not only for business, but also for sentiment." Lou Xiao'e murmured to herself.

The next day, Lou Xiao'e began to arrange additional investment in all Wang's hotels.

In the Wang Family Hotel, Wang Jianye learned of Lou Xiaoe's decision, "Thank you for your trust and support, I will definitely not let you down."

Wang Jianye began to plan how to use the funds. He decided to renovate the hotel and improve the environment.

We will also hire more outstanding chefs and develop more new dishes. At the same time, we will strengthen staff training and improve service levels.

Purchasing staff are even more meticulous when selecting ingredients for new dishes.

In order to ensure the quality of "Jinxiu Hibiscus Fish", they communicated with suppliers repeatedly, requiring them to provide fresh grass carp caught from clear waters in the early morning, with strict standards for the size and weight of the fish.

Purchasers carefully observe whether the fish's eyes are clear and its gills are bright red to determine its freshness.

For the glutinous rice for "Jade Pearl Pills", purchasing staff personally go to the production area to negotiate with the farmers and select high-quality glutinous rice with plump grains and white color.

The ducks for "Golden Crispy Duck" are ordered from a special breeding base, and each duck undergoes strict quarantine and screening.

……

The lights in all Wang's restaurants are bright and bustling.

The store was crowded with people, laughter and chatter, and the air was filled with the aroma of mouth-watering food.

Many guests came to Wang's full range of restaurants just to taste the three new dishes.

Seeing that all Wang’s restaurants were becoming even more popular, people from other restaurants in the city couldn’t sit still anymore.

Gao Qianjin and Li Hui from Tianfu Restaurant sat at the table, eagerly staring at the new dishes that had just been served.

Gao Qianjin narrowed his eyes, moved closer to the plate of gorgeous hibiscus fish, took a deep breath, his face full of curiosity.

He picked up the chopsticks, gently picked up a piece of fish, put it in his mouth and chewed slowly, his brows slightly frowned, and his eyes were full of confusion.

Li Hui stared at the Emerald Pearl Pills, picked one up impatiently and put it in his mouth, chewed it quickly for a few times, then stopped, his eyes full of confusion, muttering: "This taste is weird, why can't I taste the key?"

……

Jiang Qinfeng from Fengze Garden folded his hands across his chest and looked at the dishes on the table with a gloomy face.

Zhang Mingsheng carefully observed his expression from the side, not daring to breathe.

Jiang Qinfeng picked up the chopsticks and casually took a bite of the golden crispy duck. He put down the chopsticks after taking a small bite and snorted coldly: "Humph, I want to see what this Wang Jianye can do!"

Zhang Mingsheng quickly agreed, "Boss, don't be impatient, let's taste it slowly."

Jiang Qinfeng glanced at him and said nothing.

……

Gao Qianjin and Li Hui were really confused. Li Hui wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Master Gao, how about we call the chef in the back kitchen to ask?"

Gao Qianjin hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, this is the only way."

At Fengze Garden, Jiang Qinfeng could no longer hold back and said to Zhang Mingsheng, "Go, call the chef."

Zhang Mingsheng nodded quickly and stood up to call for help.

After a while, Chen Xiaoyang was invited to the table.

Chen Xiaoyang looked at their anxious eyes, hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since you are so sincere, I will tell you."

Wang Jianye allowed him to do so.

Because Wang Jianye has a very big vision and wants Chinese cuisine to progress, there must be competition and communication among people.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to promote Chinese cuisine by relying on one family alone.

As he spoke, Chen Xiaoyang made gestures and explained in detail. "For this splendid lotus fish, the fish must be fresh and you must be especially careful when handling it so as not to break the fish skin.

When cutting the flower pattern, pay attention to the depth and spacing, so that the steamed fish can bloom like a flower.

The proportion of seasonings must be precise, one point more will make it salty, one point less will make it bland. When steaming, the heat must be just right, too long will make the fish tough, too short will make it undercooked. "

Gao Qianjin and Li Hui listened attentively, nodded from time to time, and stared at Chen Xiaoyang's gestures.

Chen Xiaoyang went on to say: "For these jade pearl balls, the glutinous rice must be soaked in advance. If it is not soaked long enough, it will not be soft and sticky when cooked.

There are also some particularities in the preparation of the fillings. You have to stir until it becomes gelatinous, so that the meatballs will be elastic. "

At Fengze Garden, although Jiang Qinfeng still looked unhappy, he pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Chen Xiaoyang finally said: "For this golden crispy duck, the selection of duck is the key, it must be fat and lean in the right amount.

The marinade should be evenly applied, and the fish should be turned over frequently during grilling to ensure even heating.”

After finishing the talk, Gao Qianjin and Li Hui hurriedly thanked him: "Master, your explanation is so detailed. Thank you so much."

Chen Xiaoyang waved his hand: "We are all in the same industry, so let's communicate with each other."

The kitchen of Tianfu Food House is a busy scene.

Gao Qianjin and Li Hui began to replicate according to what Chen Xiaoyang said.

Gao Qianjin's forehead was covered with sweat, and he shouted loudly: "Li Hui, be careful with the heat, don't make it too big!"

Li Hui frantically adjusted the fire of the stove and responded, "Got it, Master Gao!"

"Oh, why aren't these meatballs taking shape?" Gao Qianjin said anxiously.

Li Hui wiped his sweat and asked, "Is the filling not well prepared?"

The two tried again and again, but they could never achieve the desired effect, and their faces were full of frustration.

……

The kitchen of Fengze Garden was also in chaos.

Jiang Qinfeng paced around and yelled at the chef: "How did you make this? It's so different from what you cook at Wang's entire restaurant!"

The chef looked aggrieved: "Boss, I just followed the steps."

Zhang Mingsheng persuaded from the side: "Boss, don't worry, let's try again."

……

When guests heard that Tianfu Shifang and Fengzeyuan also had these three dishes, they went there with great anticipation to taste them.

At Tianfu Restaurant, a customer tasted a piece of the splendid lotus fish and frowned, saying, "This fish doesn't taste right. It's not as fresh and tender as the one at Wang's All-Season Restaurant."

Another customer ate the Jade Pearl Ball and shook his head, saying, "This ball is too hard, it doesn't have that soft and glutinous texture."

At Fengze Garden, a customer tried the golden crispy duck and put down his chopsticks and said, "The skin is not crispy enough, and the meat is not fragrant enough. The ones at Wang's All-inclusive Restaurant are better."

……

After these reviews spread, more people flocked to all Wang's restaurants.

A long line formed in front of the Wang's All-Season Restaurant, people were eagerly waiting to taste the delicious dishes.

Inside the restaurant, the waiters were busy, moving between the tables and chairs carrying dishes.

The guests were laughing and talking happily, some were praising the delicious dishes, and some were chatting and laughing with friends.

Wang Jianye stood behind the counter, watching the lively scene, his heart filled with joy and pride.

He thought to himself: "We must maintain the quality and make the reputation of Wang's entire restaurant chain more and more famous.

In the future, we may open a few branches to allow more people to taste the food of Wang's entire restaurant series."

After Jiang Qinfeng learned that the new dishes in his restaurant were not as good as those in all Wang’s restaurants, he paced back and forth in the office, feeling jealous and unwilling.

"What on earth is Wang Jianye capable of? No, I can't just give up like this. I have to think of ways to improve."

He sat in a chair, lost in thought, thinking about future business strategies.

Gao Qianjin and Li Hui were in the kitchen of Tianfu Food House, looking at the dishes just prepared and sighed helplessly.

Gao Qianjin said: "It seems that the skills of Wang's full-line restaurant are not so easy to learn. We still have to work hard."

Li Hui nodded: "Yes, they are really amazing. We should learn from them with an open mind." (End of this chapter)
