Recently, Ramsey's business has also been booming, and he has opened a new chain of restaurants on New York's busiest island, Manhattan Island. Now that the restaurant has entered the countdown to opening, almost all of the angry chefs have been working at the new restaurant that is about to open, and the place to meet Xiao Ping is also there.

Ramsey had already instructed him to inform himself as soon as Xiao Ping arrived. So when the limousine took Xiao Ping to the new restaurant, he was greeted by the waiter at the door after he reported his name.

Xiao Ping followed the waiter to the kitchen of the restaurant, where Ramsey was doing the final inspection of all the facilities. Ramsey himself is also a chef, so the requirements for kitchen facilities are particularly high.

Before Xiao Ping reached the kitchen door, he heard the angry chef's trademark loud voice: "What are you all eating?" It's not a trivial thing to get it done! I have repeatedly stressed that the kitchen facilities should not be sloppy in the slightest, why is there a difference of two millimeters in height between the two sides? Give me an immediate rework of the rework! ”

Listening to Ramsey's roar, Xiao Ping couldn't help but sigh that the angry chef really deserved his reputation, and it was really miserable to work under him.

The waiter who brought Xiao Ping was obviously also afraid of Ramsey, and when he heard him furious in the kitchen, he hesitated to go in and beg for a curse at this time.

Xiao Ping saw the waiter's hesitation, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You go back, I'll just go in by myself." ”

The waiter ran away as if he had been pardoned, and Xiao Ping walked into the kitchen alone, where he immediately saw Ramsey scolding several engineers with helmets. The reason why the angry chef is so angry is simply because of the difference in height between the two adjacent worktops by two millimeters.

The two engineers were also embarrassed, but it was indeed their mistake that such a problem occurred. So there's no way to argue with Ramsey.

Seeing this, Xiao Ping also felt a little amused, and immediately raised his voice and said, "Ramsey." My friend, why are you so angry? ”

"Who's rambling?!" Ramsey, who was scolding Xing, instinctively shouted. Then he immediately thought that this was Xiao Ping's voice, his face finally looked better, and he reluctantly smiled at him: "Xiao, when did you come?" ”

"As soon as I arrived, I heard you lashing out." Xiao Ping smiled and said to the angry chef: "I brought you some good things that make people happy, do you want to take a look first?" ”

Ramsey, of course, knew what Xiao Ping was referring to, and immediately said to the two engineers: "Rework immediately, and be sure to solve this problem before the restaurant opens!" ”

The engineer nodded again and again, and immediately began to get busy. For them, even if it's an all-night overtime. It's also much better than being pointed at and scolded by an angry chef.

Ramsey came to Xiao Ping and couldn't wait to ask him: "Saffron, take it out and show it to me!" ”

Xiao Ping handed Ramsey a small box containing crocuses and said to him with a smile: "You are a famous chef, you can see for yourself whether the things are good or bad." ”

Ramsey is a chef by training, so he is naturally very good at identifying these ingredients. He carefully examined the saffron in the box, and took out some of them like a capel to crush them, further tasting the taste of these precious spices, and finally asked Xiao Ping in surprise, "Xiao." Did you grow all these crocus? ”

"Of course." Xiao Ping nodded unceremoniously and said, "You know, I'm very good at this!" ”

With jade vegetables as an example, Ramsey was convinced of Xiao Ping's deep belief and nodded again and again: "The quality of these crocuses is very good." It's not an exaggeration to call it the best! Seriously, how much can you supply me each season? How many I wanted! ”

"Don't rush into the quantity, I'll show you something." Xiao Ping came to talk to Ramsey about business today. Naturally, they want to show all their advantages. Faced with some doubts, Ramsey quickly took out a copy of the identification statement written by Capet himself.

"What is this......" Angry Chef suspiciously took the copy and glanced at it. Immediately, his eyes widened in surprise and said, "Capet's personal signature affirmation, my God." How did you convince him to issue the declaration? Capet's old stubborn temper is very bad, he hasn't issued such an appraisal statement for years, and the last time I went to him to sign a statement, he actually kicked me out, old bastard! ”

Although Ramsey keeps saying that Capet is an old bastard, his admiration for him is overflowing. The angry chef is a straight man, and it makes sense to behave like this.

Looking at the indignant Ramsey, Xiao Ping couldn't help but complain secretly: "I actually suspect that Capet has a bad temper, I think the person with a bad temper is obviously yourself." Capet is also an old aristocrat, and he is still very proud in his bones, it must be Ramsey who shouted at others, but he was kicked out by Cape! ”

What Xiao Ping didn't know was that he guessed eight or nine. This was exactly the case when Ramsey went to see Capet, so he didn't get an appraisal statement from the seasoning expert.

Of course, Xiao Ping didn't delve into what happened at the beginning, but said to Ramsey with a smile: "Regardless of Capet's temper, the statement he signed by himself has been recognized by the whole world, and this will not be wrong." ”

Generally speaking, Lao Mei's temper is relatively straightforward, and Ramsey is the best among them. Knowing that Xiao Ping said this to make higher requirements, the angry chef still replied honestly: "That's right, with this statement, you can confidently say that these are the best saffron anywhere." ”

"Then you can make an offer." Xiao Ping said with a smile: "For the sake of our happy cooperation all the time, as long as it is not too different from my psychological price, I will not refuse you." ”

Xiao Ping's remark made Ramsey a little embarrassed. In fact, he had already inquired that the French holy pot company offered the same saffron a high price of 300 euros per gram, which was close to 20 times the average price. But even so, the "Holy Pot" brand saffron is still in short supply.

Ramsey thought it was strange before that Xiao Ping's crocus was so easy to sell. After seeing the real thing and seeing the statement signed by Capet, the angry chef finally understood why.

However, of course, Ramsey could not also offer a purchase price of 300 euros per gram, he thought for a while, and said tentatively to Xiao Ping: "250 US dollars per gram, what do you think?" ”

Hearing Ramsey's offer, Xiao Ping couldn't help but laugh. $250 per gram equals about 185 euros, which is a lot lower than the retail price in Europe, but Ramsetti is a wholesale price after all. Moreover, Xiao Ping asked Hell's Kitchen to sell the company's products, which itself also meant to take the opportunity to advertise. Considering the publicity effect that Hell's Kitchen can bring, Xiao Ping feels that the price offered by Chef Angry is fair.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ping smiled faintly, stretched out his hand to Ramsey, who was nervously waiting for him to answer, and said, "Deal!" ”

"Deal!" Ramsey happily shook Xiao Ping's hand, and said a little impatiently: "Go to my company now to finalize the contract!" ”

Xiao Ping didn't have any opinion on this, so he went to Ramsay's company to sign a contract.

The cooperation between the fairy pot company and Hell's Kitchen has not been a day or two, and similar supply contracts have almost formed a fixed format, as long as the type of goods, unit price and supply quantity and other items are filled, the contract is basically settled.

Under the terms of the contract, Xiao Ping's fairy pot company will supply the best saffron to Hell's Kitchen Group for $250 per gram with an annual increase of 15 percent. The company will ensure that the quality of the crocus is maintained at a certain level, and will supply at least five kilograms of saffron to the Hell's Kitchen Group each season.

Xiao Ping faxed the contract back to China, and after the company's legal team saw that there were no problems, he simply signed his name at the end of the contract.

Ramsey smiled contentedly: "Happy cooperation, Xiao! ”

"Happy working together!" Xiao Ping also smiled: "I will have someone send the saffron over as soon as possible, the first batch is six kilograms, you just have to be ready to receive it." ”

Five kilograms of saffron per season is too little for the entire American market. Unexpectedly, Xiao Ping increased the supply for the first time, and Ramsey was overjoyed and expressed his deep gratitude to Xiao Ping.

"Anyway, in the whole of America in the future, the saffron of the fairy pot company will only be sold through the channels of Hell's Kitchen." Xiao Ping and Ramsey said politely after a few polite words: "This thing is also a very good medicinal material, there will definitely be people who want to buy it back as a medicinal material, and the proportion of it is up to you to control it, and the fairy pot company will not ask." ”

As soon as Xiao Ping's words fell, Ramsey immediately glared at him and said angrily: "In my eyes, the only way for saffron is to adjust the food, and only the kitchen is where saffron should play a role." It is simply inexplicable that those witch doctors who pretend to be ghosts actually use croclaws to treat people. I would never sell saffron to anyone other than the major restaurants! ”

Ramsey's words also made Xiao Ping laugh dumbly, he didn't expect the angry chef to have such a deep grudge against using saffron in medicine. But come to think of it, Ramsey regards cooking as a lifelong career, whether it's running a magazine or starting a company, it's around this theme, and of course it's not enough to see some people use a precious spice like saffron to cure diseases. Coupled with the character of the angry chef, it's not surprising that he doesn't sell saffron to unexpected customers in the restaurant.

Of course, since Ramsey is the general agent of Saffron in the Americas, and it is his freedom to sell things to whomever he likes, Xiao Ping naturally will not express his opinion.

The two chatted casually for a while, and Xiao Ping got up to say goodbye and went back to the luxury hotel Ramsey had booked for him to rest.

Xiao Ping, who was alone in a foreign country, was a little bored, and he didn't have the slightest desire to go out for a walk, and even asked room service to bring dinner to the room.

After dinner, Xiao Ping took a shower and went to bed early. However, as soon as he fell asleep in a daze, the phone in the room woke Xiao Ping up. (To be continued......)
