"Yeah?"
Ye Xiaochen was slightly stunned and nodded.
He had sold vegetables before. How did Master Lin know?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. No wonder he looked so familiar. When he went to the market for the first time to sell vegetables, wasn't Master Lin the first customer he saw?
At that time, Master Lin was with a child.
He thought he was just an ordinary old man. He didn't expect him to be a chef with amazing culinary skills!
"That's great. You finally remember?"
Master Lin saw Ye Xiaochen's stunned expression and immediately knew he had found the right person. He quickly said, "Young man, the vegetables I bought from you were really great. I have never seen such good quality vegetables. Unfortunately, after that time, I never saw you go to the market again."
At that time, he was deeply regretful.
He didn't expect to finally see a young man selling vegetables in his own private kitchen. He was so excited!
He had always wanted to use that kind of high-quality vegetable to cook. He was sure that using that kind of vegetable would definitely improve his culinary skills to the next level.
Liu Fusheng and the others were a little confused. They didn't know why Master Lin was so excited.
Wasn't it just vegetables?
They were a little surprised that Ye Xiaochen went to the market to sell vegetables.
Only Liu Fusheng knew that before Ye Xiaochen cooperated with him, there was no market for the vegetables on the farm. It was not unusual for him to go to the market to sell vegetables.
But what surprised him was that Master Lin actually praised Ye Xiaochen's vegetables so much.
Although he knew that Ye Xiaochen's vegetables were really good and had a good reputation among the customers, after he ended the cooperation with Ye Xiaochen and switched to the original vegetable channel, many customers were a little dissatisfied and often asked why the vegetables were not delicious.
But he didn't care too much at that time.
From the looks of it, Ye Xiaochen's vegetables were truly extraordinary!
"Uh, I didn't go to the market to sell vegetables after that."
Ye Xiaochen honestly said.
"No wonder. Oh, young man, do you still have vegetables? My Lin's Private Kitchen will purchase your vegetables in the future. We will pay ten times the market price."
Master Lin quickly said.
Ten times the market price?
Ye Xiaochen was dumbfounded. Was this a joke?
"If you think it's too low, you can name your own price."
As a famous chef, Master Lin's requirements for ingredients were extremely strict.
Now that he had encountered a high-quality vegetable, he naturally wouldn't want to miss it.
As for the price, it didn't matter. The dishes made by the Lin family's private kitchen were more than ten times more expensive than those restaurants and hotels.
"Master Lin, that's not what I meant. I just think it's too high, and …"
Ye Xiaochen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"No, it's not high at all. Your vegetables are completely worth the price."
Master Lin waved his hand and said, "Young man, as long as you provide vegetables for my private kitchen, you can come here to eat whenever you want. You don't have to order anything. I'll even give you a discount."
Liu Fusheng and the others were dumbfounded and envious when they heard this.
They were considered regulars here. Who else would receive such treatment?
Even if the officials and nobles from the county came here, they would also have to order food in advance.
"Master Lin, how many vegetables do you need?"
Ye Xiaochen felt like she was surrounded by happiness!
Ten times the price!
F * ck, wouldn't it be too cheap if he gave it to those supermarkets and restaurants?
This thought flashed through his mind, but he quickly dismissed it. He couldn't forget his roots. After all, it was all because of those supermarkets and restaurants that he was able to get out of this predicament and not worry about sales.
However, after being reminded by Master Lin, he had a new idea. He could buy high-quality vegetables and supply them to people like Master Lin at a high price.
"Not much. All kinds of vegetables don't exceed a hundred pounds."
Master Lin said.
"That's not a problem."
Ye Xiaochen nodded. Squeezing out a hundred pounds of vegetables wasn't a problem.
Soon, the two of them exchanged contact information.
"Everyone, I'm sorry to disturb you."
After Master Lin left, a waiter served a plate of pickled vegetables.
This pickled vegetable was a major specialty of the Lin family's private kitchen. It was carefully prepared and had a great taste. It was a favorite dish of many diners.
Unfortunately, each table would only be given a plate of pickled vegetables.
Liu Fusheng and the others knew that being able to eat a second plate of pickled vegetables was obviously due to Ye Xiaochen's face.
Once the pickled vegetables were served, everyone's eyes turned red. They all rushed to eat. Soon, the entire plate of pickled vegetables was snatched clean.
"Thanks to Brother Ye, I finally got to eat pickled vegetables today. It's really not bad!"
Zhao Peng said very contentedly.
"Yeah, Old Man Lin is usually very stingy. Don't think about giving us more pickled vegetables."
He Lei nodded and said.
"Ye Xiaochen, Big Sister also wants to buy some vegetables. I wonder if I'll have the fortune to eat them?"
Xu Jiao's eyes turned and suddenly said.
"Big Sister Xu, why are you talking about buying? Aren't you not giving me face? I don't have much, but the vegetables I usually eat are still fine. I'll send some to you when the time comes. "
Ye Xiaochen smiled.
This was an opportunity to build a good relationship with Xu Jiao.
"Alright then. When the time comes, if you want to buy any gold or silver jewelry, come directly to me. I'll give you the lowest price."
Xu Jiao covered her mouth and laughed.
Ye Xiaochen naturally wouldn't favor one and discriminate against the other. She promised to give everyone some vegetables, which made everyone present beam with joy.
Liu Fusheng had eaten Ye Xiaochen's vegetables before and missed them quite a bit, so he naturally wouldn't refuse.
After this commotion, the atmosphere at the table became even better.
Ye Xiaochen's relationship with them wasn't as distant as before. They became much closer, chatting and laughing, and weren't as uncomfortable as before.
Ye Xiaochen knew that she was slowly integrating into this circle.
In the future, as long as she managed it well and made more connections, these people would gradually become her connections.
In this world, it was very difficult to do anything without connections. Otherwise, there would be obstacles everywhere, making people helpless.
After all, this was a society of connections.
After the dishes were eaten, there was no lack of alcohol.
Although Ye Xiaochen tried to drink as little as possible, she still drank many cups.
"Brother Ye, why drink beer? Men should drink white wine. Look at Sister Xu, a woman, but she's drinking white wine. You can't be outdone by a woman, right?"
After seeing Ye Xiaochen finish the beer in her cup, He Lei hurriedly poured a cup of Wuliangye into Ye Xiaochen's cup.
That strong alcohol aroma stimulated Ye Xiaochen's stomach to churn, and she became even more drunk.
"What do you mean by being outdone by a woman? Little Lei, can we compete?"
Xu Jiao rolled her eyes at He Lei as she spoke.
"Let's compete then. Do you think I'm scared of you? Old rules, whoever wins pays the bill."
He Lei loosened the collar of his shirt.
"Then it's settled."
Xu Jiao wasn't to be outdone.
All six people's cups were filled to the brim with Wuliangye.
"Brother Fu, do I have to drink too?"
Ye Xiaochen felt like she could get drunk at any time when she smelled the scent of the white wine. Her head swelled when she saw this full cup of alcohol.
"It doesn't matter. You just have to drink until you're drunk. Someone will settle you down then."
Liu Fusheng laughed.
This was their tradition when they had a meal together.
Ye Xiaochen had no choice but to endure.
Whoever won would pay the bill. It wasn't her turn anyway.
"I'll go to the washroom first."
Ye Xiaochen felt the urge to pee and quickly got up.
"Brother Ye, don't run away. We'll wait for you."
Zhao Peng said.
Ye Xiaochen really did have such thoughts. She couldn't help but laugh. "Definitely not."
After leaving the room, she quickly asked the waiter where the washroom was and hurriedly walked in.
At this time, two people came in from outside the hall.
It was Chen Hao and Li Yan.
