Countless chili peppers floated on the spicy red soup, which boiled, swirled, and tumbled to exude fragrance. Spicy, umami mixed together gives an olfactory stimulus.

Several people looked at each other, not knowing how to drop the chopsticks, and it was raw, can this be eaten?

Yu Wenyue was so surprised that she finally couldn't help but ask, "Sister, is this...... What is the pot? ”

"It's a hot pot! Come, everyone sit down, and I'll show you. ”

All the people, the masters and the servants, sat around.

As soon as Chef Zhao came, he was still hesitating whether to sit or not, but he was pulled over by Chongyang, he was uneasy, and his admiration for the county lord in his heart unconsciously increased a few points.

"First of all, each small bowl is filled with sauce, add a little bit of each one, and then first soak the meat dishes, stay in the hot pot for eight or nine seconds, and dip them in the sauce that has just been prepared...... You can eat whatever you like...... It is super delicious and is an indispensable delicacy in winter. ”

Smelling the fresh smell and watching the chili peppers loom like fish in the tumbling red soup, Nangong Keqing picked up a piece of mutton, scalded it in the pot, cooked it, scooped it up, it was hot, dipped in the seasoning, the heat rose, it smelled spicy and fragrant. When you put it in your mouth, you immediately feel its spiciness, and your lips and teeth are fragrant.

"It's delicious, I'm sure you eat it once and think about it next."

"What is eight or nine seconds?" Qin Qing asked.

Nangong Keqing was immediately fine, with three black lines on his head......

"That's it...... Like what I just did, you can put it in for seven or eight rounds, and don't let it be soaked for too long, the meat will get old and affect the taste. Nangong Keqing explained.

The bright red soup in the pot was filled with dense peppercorns and chili peppers...... It's intimidating to look at......

Several people also followed her example and began to hesitate, looking at Nangong Keqing's happy and enjoyable appearance, they couldn't help but taste it after all......

An unfamiliar fragrance fills the palate, a slight spicy sensation beats between the lips and teeth, and the more you eat the second bite, the more fragrant it becomes, and the more you eat, the more energetic it becomes.

Tasting the sweetness, several people widened their eyes and started eating, although it was a little spicy, but it was all acceptable, "Such a strange method can be so delicious." Yu Wenyue opened her mouth in surprise.

"It's so spicy." Zhang Yuan was so spicy that he was sweating, but he couldn't stop.

Wang Jiang and Qin Qing didn't care about talking at all, and kept shabu-shabu......

The two maids were so hot that they stuck out their tongues...... "Miss, you have to give the method to the slave maid, and the slave maid will do it for you next time." ”

"County Lord, Xiaomin asked himself how to cook many kinds of dishes, but he has never eaten such delicious food." Chef said excitedly.

Nangong Keqing smiled and said unceremoniously: "I have accepted all your compliments, how is Miss Ben's cooking skills?" Qianyue's crooked eyes looked at Chongyang with a thick smile.

Chongyang received that provocative look, and before he could swallow a mouthful of food, it was so spicy that he coughed, and tears rushed out.

Nangong Keqing laughed out loud without figuring it, turned around and went back to the kitchen to bring out a big pot, and poured a cup for everyone, "Such a dark color...... What kind of tea is it? Yu Wenyue asked.

"Let's try it, it's sour plum juice, eaten with hot pot, sweet and sour to relieve greasy."

"Miss, drink well." Yuhe praised in surprise.

Nangong Keqing looked at everyone and said solemnly: "What do you think will be the response if this hot pot is on the market?" ”

"Sister, is this going to open a store?" Qin Qing asked in surprise. This sister is really getting more and more powerful, she just opened a cloth village, and she will open a restaurant again.

"I think so, who can refuse such a gourmet temptation? But you have to think about it. Yu Wenyue echoed.

The two girls kept nodding in agreement.

At this time, Chef Zhao couldn't hold back and asked anxiously: "County Lord, if you want to open a shop, what can Xiaomin help?" He didn't dare to ask, because he hadn't forgotten what King Rui had said.

Nangong Keqing looked at his worried look and said, "Don't worry, you must be missing, you are the chef of this county!" Placing it in a restaurant is the stage for you to play. ”

Zhao Cheng was so moved that he hesitated to ask his worries, "But, Lord Rui ......"

"I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Nangong Keqing gave him a reassurance.

Chongyang ate his hot pot silently, he knew that the young lady had already chosen the shop.

"I would like to announce to you a piece of good news, I have selected a good shop near Jiangde on South Street, and I can operate it after a simple decoration." Nangong Keqing cleared her throat and said.

Qin Qing, Zhang Yuan, and Wang Jiang said excitedly: "Congratulations to the young owner......"

Yu Wenyue said: "Opening a store is another big expense, sister, if the silver is not enough, I will give it to my sister first." ”

Qin Qing also agreed: "Sister, I also have this, I need to know a little." ”

Nangong Keqing was very moved, she didn't take the initiative to borrow it, they took the initiative to help, how could she not be touched, in modern times, lest she avoid it, she was moved by the sincerity of Xiaoyue and Qin Qing, and also moved by their enthusiastic dedication, and friends are more than this.

"Thank you Xiaoyue and Sister Qing first, you forgot that I still have two shops that are making money every day, don't worry, it's enough."

"This hot pot is delicious, but if it is made so spicy, there will still be some people who can't accept it, and the customer flow will inevitably decrease. Chef Zhao asked.

"It is true that the chef has discovered the problem, I have made this hot pot with six flavors, namely tomato soup hot pot base, spicy hot pot base, nourishing clear soup hot pot base, nutritious milk white pork rib soup base, nourishing mushroom soup fire base, delicious sauerkraut fire base, five kinds are not spicy, enough for customers to choose.

"I see." Chef Zhao nodded appreciatively.

"Chongyang, you are still responsible for the decoration this time, just find the carpenter Yang Jixiang, the two cooperation is good, it's him." Nangong Keqing said.

Yuhe asked anxiously, "Miss, what are we doing?" ”

"Don't worry, you can't be idle, just don't be idle and tired when the time comes."

The two girls said in unison: "The slave is not tired." ”

Nangong Keqing drank a few sips of sour plum juice and continued: "You help find available people, the guys in the store, apprentices or something, at least twenty or thirty people, the most important thing is to be trustworthy, honest and sincere, just forget about the traitors." ”

Zhang Yuan and Wang Jiang nodded frequently.

Nangong Keqing handed over the job of recruiting people in the back kitchen to Chef Zhao.

A sumptuous hot pot feast ended with everyone's cheerful discussion......
