Chapter 373 Adding Dishes
Lin Chuyi understood the waiter's request very well. After all, it was she who first proposed this suggestion to Wang Fugui.
Lin Chuyi did not tell the waiter that he was not allergic to seafood, but cooperated and completed the test.
After making sure that he did not have an allergic reaction to seafood, Lin Chuyi ordered three of the restaurant's signature dishes as recommended by the waiter, and added two additional stir-fried dishes.
After ordering, Lin Chuyi looked at the waiter and asked, "Where is your boss? Why can't I see your boss?"
The waiter was slightly startled, and then asked, "Sir, do you know our boss?"
Lin Chuyi smiled and nodded to show his agreement, saying, "Yes, Brother Fugui and I are old acquaintances. When we parted before, he kindly invited me to visit him in the capital."
"I happened to come to the capital to handle some business this time. The matter has been successfully resolved. I wanted to come and visit him before leaving. I just glanced around the store, but did not see Brother Fugui. I wonder where he is now?"
"I see." The waiter suddenly realized, and then began to explain to Lin Chuyi where Wang Fugui was going. "Our boss likes to stay in the kitchen on weekdays and soak the seafood ingredients himself. If there is nothing special, he usually won't come to the lobby."
After hearing this, Lin Chu nodded to the waiter, indicating that he understood.
The waiter continued, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will go to the kitchen and inform our boss. Hmm... I wonder what your name is? If the boss asks, I can answer it."
Hearing this, Lin Chuyi smiled and said, "If Brother Fugui asks, just tell him my name is Chuyi. Please, brother, run this trip for me."
As he spoke, Lin Chuyi calmly took out a dozen copper coins from his sleeve and gently placed them in the boy's hand.
The young man tightly grasped the copper coin in his hand, feeling secretly happy. Not only did he get extra benefits from receiving the guest, but he also received the guest's thanks, which made him feel very happy.
The smile on his face became brighter and brighter, and he said to Lin Chuyi sincerely: "Okay, okay, sir, please wait a moment, I will go find our boss right away."
After the waiter put away the copper coins, he picked up the teapot on the table, filled a cup of steaming hot tea for Lin Chuyi, and then turned and walked towards the kitchen.
At this moment, Wang Fugui was concentrating on soaking scallops in the kitchen. The waiter came to him and told him that a young man named "Chuyi" came to see him and said that this person was now sitting at the third table on the east side of the lobby.
Wang Fugui was stunned when he heard the news. However, after a moment, an irrepressible ecstasy appeared on his face. He quickly wiped his hands, untied the apron around his waist, and walked towards the lobby impatiently.
Wang Fugui has only known one person in his life, Chuyi, and she is a girl. Although their contacts are limited, he has a deep understanding of Chuyi's abilities during these brief interactions. Pretending to be a man is nothing to her.
Because of this, when he learned that someone called herself "Chuyi" and was waiting for him in the lobby, Wang Fugui immediately had a strong intuition in his heart that this "Chuyi" must be the girl he was familiar with.
Miss Chuyi has really come to Kyoto. This time he must entertain her well and be a good host to make her trip worthwhile.
Wang Fugui walked a few steps towards the lobby, then suddenly thought of something and quickly turned back to the kitchen.
At this time, the waiter was reporting the names of the dishes that Lin Chu ordered to the chef in the kitchen.
"Master Zhang, the guests at the East Three Table ordered a dish of seafood stewed noodles, a dish of dry pot seafood, a dish of dried abalone stewed with fish maw, a dish of stir-fried squid, and a dish of stir-fried meat with dried snails."
"Okay." Chef Zhang responded while flipping the wok. He recited the names of the dishes in his mind and couldn't help asking, "How many guests are there at the East Table 3? Many of these dishes are quite large in portion. If there are not many people, they won't be able to eat so much."
"Ah?" The waiter originally served dishes in the kitchen, but was transferred to the lobby to entertain guests in the past few days. He didn't come into contact with many guests and had little experience in handling affairs. He only knew that the more dishes sold, the more capable the waiter was, and he didn't consider the guests' appetite at all.
After hearing what Chef Zhang said, the waiter thought of Lin Chuyi's thin body, and suddenly felt a little lacking in confidence, and his voice became much lower.
"There is only one guest at the East Three Tables. He probably can't eat so many dishes. How about I go back and ask if the guest wants to remove some dishes?"
"This..." Chef Zhang couldn't help but frown when he heard this. There seemed to be no such precedent in the past, and this idea didn't sound appropriate.
Before Chef Zhang could come up with a way to satisfy both parties, Wang Fugui's voice suddenly interrupted: "No need to go back and ask, just cook all the signature dishes in the restaurant and send them to the guests at the east three tables."
Chef Zhang couldn't help but hesitate and said, "Boss, I'm afraid this isn't a good idea. The dishes he ordered are enough for three or four people. If we serve all of our signature dishes, it will take at least five or six people to finish them. He's just one person, how can he finish so much? Don't you hate it when customers waste food?"
Wang Fugui smiled and waved his hands, "Don't worry, the guest at the East Third Table is an old acquaintance of mine, and I know her appetite best, so just serve the dishes. Oh, she's a picky eater, Lao Zhang, you'll have to use your best cooking skills this time. If she's not satisfied with the taste of the dishes, I'll settle the score with you."
"Oh! Master, don't you know what my craft is? I will definitely treat it with my heart and make sure that the customers are satisfied."
Chef Zhang was hired by Wang Fugui at a high salary. He received Wang Fugui's salary and treated his boss Wang Fugui with great respect on weekdays. Since his boss said so, he did not go against his boss anymore. He followed his boss's words, made a promise, and continued to cook.
Wang Fugui shifted his gaze to the waiter and said, "Go out and tell Lao Gu later that the money for the East Third Table should be put on my account, and don't take her money."
"Okay." Seeing that the boss did not blame him for his previous mistake, the young man secretly breathed a sigh of relief and secretly warned himself in his heart not to make the same mistake again in the future.
After preparing himself mentally, he hurried to the checkout counter to find Manager Gu to complete his boss's instructions.
After Wang Fugui finished his instructions, he hurried to the lobby. After entering the lobby, his eyes went straight to the direction of the East Third Table. As expected, he saw the handsome young man who was sipping tea elegantly.
Although Lin Chuyi was wearing men's clothes, Wang Fugui recognized her at the first sight. He strode towards Lin Chuyi, then pulled out the bench on the right side of Lin Chuyi and sat down.
"When did you come to Kyoto? Why didn't you come to see me earlier? Why are you alone this time? Where's your brother? Why isn't he with you..."
Wang Fugui sat down and started talking like a machine gun, asking Lin Chu questions one after another.
Lin Chuyi was confused by his series of questions and didn't know which one to answer first. She had to wait until Wang Fugui finished asking all the questions before she began to answer slowly.
"I just arrived in Kyoto not long ago. I came here mainly to deal with some things. As soon as I finished the matter, I came to see you immediately."
