Chapter 373: Chapter 219: Don’t Say Your Teacher Taught You This, Part 2

Ouyang was dumbfounded and subconsciously picked another guo’er from the takeaway box. Only after grabbing it did he realize what he was doing and silently put it back.

Seeing Ouyang like this, Qin Huai knew that he must feel uncomfortable if he didn’t eat something right now. So, he turned around, went into the kitchen, and grabbed a chef from Zhiwei Restaurant.

"Do you have any snacks?"

Three minutes later, Ouyang was eating a flowing sand bun.

Their conversation location shifted from the kitchen door to a small table in the corner. Yu Yang, who had a surname, kindly brought over a pot of freshly brewed tea and in passing, informed Qin Huai about Guli’s progress with kneading the rice cake—

The kneading was done, the rice cake was being steamed, and once steamed, it would be kneaded again.

Qin Huai:?

Why is Guli kneading the rice cake? Isn’t it supposed to be Tan Wei’an?

Ouyang was munching on the flowing sand bun, marveling at it: "Oh my god, this bun!"

Qin Huai:?

"Such a fascinating sensation!" Rarely did Ouyang give serious food reviews, "So chewy! I’ve never had such a magical texture in a bun’s dough before."

To prove himself, Ouyang took another big bite and exclaimed, "Really, I’ve never tasted a bun dough with such a peculiar texture, wow, this feeling, this chewiness, delicious!"

Hearing Ouyang say this, Qin Huai became curious too. The flowing sand bun was made by Yu Yang, and Qin Huai had tasted it before; it was quite normal, typical of the level of flowing sand buns every morning tea restaurant in Guangdong Province could make, nothing special.

As for the bun dough being very chewy, that was even more puzzling because Yu Yang’s dough kneading skills were average, and the dough of the flowing sand bun he made was soft, not chewy at all.

Qin Huai picked up a flowing sand bun, about to taste it, then took a closer look and glanced again at the half-eaten flowing sand bun in Ouyang’s hand.

"You didn’t take off the paper liner." Qin Huai was speechless, "When practicing, the flowing sand bun was steamed on these little steamer trays, with paper liners, and you left the paper on."

"This bun must have been steamed for over ten minutes now, the paper stuck to the dough and you didn’t notice."

"The unique texture you’re talking about is because you ate the paper."

Ouyang:?

Ouyang took a close look and suddenly realized: "I always wondered why buns I bought at convenience stores had paper liners underneath; so that’s what they’re for!"

Qin Huai:...

That’s not what they’re for!

Man, you...

I...

This bun...

Paper...

Forget it, I’m exhausted, let it all end.

Man, I’m just gonna assume you didn’t sleep well after getting out of detention late last night, and you’re a bit out of it.

Qin Huai looked at Ouyang: "Now I know how you managed to lose 6.6 million from running a fish hot pot restaurant for a year."

"Listen to me, when you start your handcrafted lemon tea shop, make sure not to alter the recipe. Just use the recipe you had when you made handcrafted lemon tea at Yunzhong Restaurant."

"How did you know I’ve been researching several recipes recently?" Ouyang was startled, "If I only sell handcrafted lemon tea, I think it’s too plain. Recently, I’ve been drinking a lot of handcrafted lemon tea in Gusu and I think there’s room for many modifications."

"Sea salt cheese, sour plum peach, coconut milk, Coke, Sprite, AD calcium milk, I think they can all be added to the handcrafted lemon tea."

Qin Huai:...

Qin Huai looked at Ouyang, his eyes full of sincerity, at this moment, he empathized with Jiang Weiming.

"When your handcrafted lemon tea opens, don’t tell them that the original recipe was given by me."

"Just say you learned the craft from a mentor outside."

I’m begging you.

Ouyang expressed understanding: "I get it, our two shops are so close, if I say the recipe was given by you, people will criticize me for riding on Yunzhong Restaurant’s popularity. Bro, don’t worry, I get that principle!"

"Entrepreneurship relies on oneself."

Qin Huai felt very gratified, deciding to give Ouyang two more guo’er tomorrow.

Qin Huai and Ouyang chatted about gossip for another 20 minutes, during which Yu Yang refilled the tea once and brought two batches of snacks. Qin Huai only tasted them briefly, leaving the rest for Ouyang to eat.

By the way, Qin Huai didn’t forget to review posts on social media while chatting about gossip, liking and commenting as appropriate. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

During this time, he came across Bingbingzi’s social media post, surprisingly, Bingbingzi took advantage of the New Year’s holiday to visit Gusu with classmates for two days, taking a hard seat both ways, engaging in the special forces-like experience of eating and touring Gusu, and checking in at Huang Ji for guo’er.

The polished social media post praised the guo’er to the skies.

Qin Huai felt pleased and decisively liked and commented: Seems delicious!

Ouyang, full and satisfied, prepared to go home to continue developing new lemon tea products, wiped his mouth, and sighed: "I didn’t expect Huang Ji to have so many types of snacks, why didn’t I see them last time I came to eat, are they new?"

"New product tasting, if you like it, you can come every morning and afternoon, plenty to go around."

The skills of the chefs at Zhiwei Restaurant in making snacks varied greatly. Although Tan Wei’an’s skills were nothing compared to Qin Huai and Zheng Siyuan, among the six at Zhiwei Restaurant, he was already one of the best.

The folks in Huang’s Kitchen could basically eat Qin Huai and Zheng Siyuan’s snacks every day, and over time, their taste for snacks had become quite discerning, not very fond of the trial snacks by several people at Zhiwei Restaurant.

Of course, with the exception of those particularly unpalatable ones.

For instance, the Mixed Fruit Filling, which was simply in high demand.

Whenever Qin Huai and Zheng Siyuan made a particularly unpalatable Mixed Fruit Filling, it would cause a mad rush among everyone. They all wanted to try just how bad it could taste, how it could possibly be even worse than what they tasted last time.

At this moment, some might ask, is there no rush for the Mixed Fruit Filling made by Tan Wei’an?
