Chapter 387 Foodie Grandpa
Jiang Wei slapped his head and said with a smile, "Boss Bai, your idea is really good. I'll try it right away."

After Jiang Wei finished speaking, he returned to the booth by himself and began to operate seriously according to Bai Xiaobai's suggestion.

Bai Xiaobai also started to get busy here, steaming five drawers of Sea Dragon Steamed Dumpling King in advance, and then waiting for customers to come to the door.

The fame of clear soup noodles has officially started yesterday.

Many senior foodies at the Jianghai Food Festival have heard yesterday that there is an extremely delicious clear soup noodle that is selling at a very high price.

The customers who were still satisfied after eating the clear soup noodles yesterday, and the foodies who didn't come yesterday to taste the clear soup noodles, all flocked to the booth of Xiaobai Restaurant.

In front of the booth of Xiaobai Restaurant, queues have been lined up one after another.

Some sharp-eyed customers have noticed that there are new delicacies on the whiteboard.

Hailong Steamed Dumpling King/1200 yuan per steamer, each drawer contains 5 steamed dumplings, and you can get a free dipping sauce for each drawer you buy.

The dipping sauce is divided into non-spicy ginger vinegar dipping sauce and spicy chili sesame sauce. You can only choose one of the two.

"Did I lose sight of a decimal point?" A young man rubbed his eyes and casually asked the male compatriots beside him, "Brother, is the price 1200 or 12.00?"

The young man pointed to the selling price figure on the whiteboard.

The male compatriots stared at the price on the whiteboard, took a breath, and turned pale with shock, "Damn it, this boss is so domineering, he dares to sell five steamed dumplings for more than 1000 yuan, he is really not afraid of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. He is Jianghai's best restaurant owner."

After finishing speaking, he picked up his mobile phone, clicked on Bai Xiaobai's booth, and took a few photos, preparing to accumulate material for sending to WeChat Moments.

The conversation between the young man and his compatriots has already been heard by the customers waiting in line to buy noodles in clear soup. They all set their sights on the price tag of Hailong Steamed Dumpling King. After reading it, it was another big discussion.

"Fuck off, what are these steamed dumplings, so expensive, is there a mistake?"

"I've eaten the most expensive shark's fin dumplings in the Grand Hotel in the Imperial City before, and they're not so expensive. I'm sure the boss didn't mislabel the price."

"Mother Xipi, if the clear soup noodles made by this boss are not so delicious, I would want to beat him up."

There was endless abuse in the team.

Many customers love, hate and respect Bai Xiaobai. What they admire is his cooking skills, what they love is his food, and what they hate is his ridiculous pricing.

In addition, many queuing customers not only noticed the price of the new product on the whiteboard, but also noticed the large glass jar behind the booth.

The big lobster in the glass tank is very conspicuous.

"My dear, Australian big lobster, this is the first time I have seen such a big lobster." A fat man recognized Aolong at a glance.

When he saw the big lobster in the glass tank, he showed a very surprised expression, "Isn't Hailong Steamed Dumpling King just made of lobster? Then 1000 yuan is definitely worth it."

Bai Xiaobai was cooking clear soup noodles at the booth, while Gao Chao and Lan Weihao were responsible for packing and collecting money as usual.

Bai Xiaobai also listened to the discussions in the team about the pricing of new products.

He is still the same attitude.

He receives compliments and pertinent comments. As for insults that attack people, he goes in one ear and out the other, and doesn't stay in his mind for a moment.

Soon, some customers inquired about the new Hailong Steamed Dumpling King.

"Boss, do you make your steamed dumplings with Aolong in a glass tank?" It was the fat customer just now, who was particularly interested in the new product.

"Yes, one lobster can only make the meat filling of five steamed dumplings, that is, one steamer." Bai Xiaobai introduced.

Lan Weihao at the side said enthusiastically to the fat man, "Boss, why don't you come here for a cage, it's just out of the oven."

After all, more than 1000 yuan is not bad for a fat man, so he was still a little hesitant. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Can I just buy one, I'll taste it first, and if it tastes good, I'll buy another."

In general steamed bun shops, steamed dumplings are usually sold by tray, but if a customer wants to buy half a tray or a few, some bosses will also sell it, but this situation is relatively rare.

In response to the fat customer's request, Bai Xiaobai politely refused, "I'm so sorry, Hailong Steamed Dumpling King is sold by drawers, not just by itself."

After being rejected, the fat customer's face was not very good-looking. He thought that the steamed dumplings were so expensive that he could definitely buy them alone.

"Then...forget it." Seeing that the boss didn't show any face, the fat man immediately left the team with the clear soup noodles he bought.

Immediately afterwards, some customers asked to buy one and try it first, and there were many beauties among them.

But no matter who the customer was, this request was decisively and politely rejected by Bai Xiaobai.

Hailong Steamed Dumpling King system stipulates that it is sold drawer by drawer. Although Bai Xiaobai has the right to set prices semi-independently, he has not tampered with the form of the sold quantity.

During the period, Bai Xiaobai also asked the system with his mind why new products can't be sold individually.

The system's answer is a bit weird, but it seems to make sense.

[Host, a drawer of King Sea Dragon Steamed Dumplings is made with the meat of a whole lobster. Only one drawer is complete, so that you can taste all the deliciousness of a whole lobster without any regrets. 】

Bai Xiaobai could only use the symbol "..." to express his speechlessness.

There are still many customers who come to inquire about new products in the morning, but none of them are really willing to pay for it.

300 yuan a bowl of clear soup noodles, because of the excellent reputation, although the price is unreasonable, but at least it is not thousands of dollars, so I bought it after gnashing my teeth.

But five steamed dumplings cost 1200 yuan, which is too expensive, and it is not a common delicacy at all.

Many people said that this price is enough for a whole family to eat a good seafood meal in a high-end restaurant, who would be willing to buy five dumplings.

No matter how delicious it is.

A young ruffian passed by the booth of Xiaobai Restaurant, saw the price tag on the whiteboard, and even couldn't help complaining loudly, "XXXX, 12 yuan a basket of steamed dumplings, I'm not even going to eat it, 1200 Yuan Yicang? You're fucking kidding me."

In the morning, the clear soup noodles of Bai Xiaobai Cuisine sold well, but the new product was neglected and rejected by many people.

Even the business owners in the nearby booths laughed at whether Bai Xiaobai was out of his mind. Why did he use live lobsters to make such expensive delicacies at the food festival?
Bai Xiaobai completely ignored all kinds of black and embarrassing faces.

Countless times of cynicism, he has long been used to it, and he has long cultivated a strong heart.

It was noon, the warm sun hung high, and the warm light spread over every corner of XX Square.

The food festival has more and more people.

Many people come to XX Square to bask in the sun to keep warm, and by the way, dabble in the food festival's food for lunch.

Among the crowd, a gray-haired old man was very conspicuous. Although his clothes were clean, they were very old. At first glance, he looked very much like a beggar.

He lingers back and forth between booths at the food festival.

Many merchants didn't look good when they saw him with disheveled hair, poor clothes, and a beggar.

The world is going downhill, first respect clothes and then respect people.

It's not uncommon for people in rags to be out of favor at food festivals.

"Beg for food, go somewhere else, I don't have it here." Some business owners shouted very rudely.

"Let's go, go there, don't interfere with my business." A middle-aged proprietress frowned, pinched her nose, and waved her hands impatiently.

There is a middle-aged boss in his 30s, because the business is not going well, so he is really upset and very angry.

Seeing the gray old man lingering in front of his booth for a few seconds, he immediately showed a fierce look, picked up a small wooden stick, pointed and cursed: "Where is the old man, I'm so angry, begging for food, go away. "

The old man shook his head helplessly, stretched his waist, limped and continued to wander among the food booths.

He focused on the various delicacies in the booth, showing a begging look.

After wandering around for a long time, without exception, no merchant is willing to give him alms at 01:30.

The old man finally came to the booth of Xiaobai Restaurant.

The three of Bai Xiaobai are having lunch.

Bai Xiaobai was immersed in sucking noodles, and didn't notice it at first.

Gao Chao tilted his face sideways, and motioned, "Bai Xiaobai, there is an old man watching you, does he know you?"
