I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters

As soon as Qiao Linxi entered the restaurant, he generously ordered a large table of the restaurant's signature dishes, but he only ate a little bit of each dish.

The food in this restaurant tastes OK, not outstanding but not bad either, just average.

The shopkeeper standing behind the counter had been staring at Qiao Linxi since she came in and ordered a table of the restaurant's signature dishes. At first he thought the girl wanted to eat a free meal, but seeing how she ate and commented on the food, he knew she was an expert.

After thinking for a while, the shopkeeper came out from behind the counter with a smile on his face, walked up to Qiao Linxi, and asked with a smile: "Miss, is the food in our store still edible?"

Qiao Linxi wiped her mouth elegantly with a handkerchief and said, "It's OK, not outstanding, but not bad either."

The shopkeeper choked and stared at Qiao Linxi. Knowing that she had something else to say, he did not respond.

"This dish of stir-fried pork liver requires extremely strict heat control. One degree more heat will make it overcooked, and one degree less will make it raw. The chef must have been three breaths late when serving the liver, causing it to be slightly overcooked. Also, there were too many scallions, and the flavor covered the flavor of the liver."

The shopkeeper knew that Qiao Linxi was an expert when he heard her words, but he was not sure about her intentions. So he asked tentatively, "Miss, do you mean... you want to be the chef in our restaurant?"

Qiao Linxi shook her head. "I'm just a little curious. The food in your restaurant isn't bad, so why is it so deserted? Or maybe the owner behind the restaurant isn't short of money, so he opened the restaurant just for fun."

"Oh, you are joking, young lady. If you are not short of money, who would bother to open such a big restaurant? We are also worried about no business, but in this capital, those good chefs are in other restaurants, which has caused our restaurant's business to be much colder."

Qiao Linxi added: "If I have a complete marketing model and a menu that other restaurants don't have, I would like to ask if the shopkeeper can let me join your restaurant and share in the dividends."

The shopkeeper hesitated: "This... I can't make the decision. If the girl is willing to wait, I will go find the boss and let him talk to you."

Qiao Linxi agreed and expressed her willingness to wait, and while waiting she went to the kitchen to prepare a few dishes.

Since she wants to join, she must show her strength. Otherwise, who would believe her if she just talks nonsense?

"You woman, do you think you can enter the kitchen? Get out of here."

Qiao Linxi was driven away by the restaurant's chef, but she was not angry. She said that she was just borrowing their kitchen to cook a few dishes, and explained her intention to join the restaurant.

"Don't worry. If the cooperation fails, I will double the compensation for the loss of ingredients. But you have to leave. If the cooperation fails and you steal my recipe, I will lose both my wife and my army, right?"

In the end, the double compensation made the chefs leave the kitchen. Qiao Linxi closed the door and started cooking.

Since they were discussing cooperation, they had to impress the other party, so Qiao Linxi chose several dishes that were complex in craftsmanship and exclusively provided to the royal family.

The Fairy Pot, this dish has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin, the Braised Kirin Noodles, this dish is especially good for men, and there is also a dish suitable for everyone, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

Qiao Linxi believed that these three dishes would definitely shock the other party. In addition, she had the support of the system, and in terms of business, she definitely had a cheat, and everything she talked about was 100% successful.

Outside the kitchen door, several chefs were chatting with their arms folded. Some of them were not optimistic about Qiao Linxi, thinking that as a woman, what good food could she make?

"What good dishes can she make? She has delicate skin and tender flesh, and it's obvious that she has never touched a single drop of water. I'm afraid she can't even tell the difference between green vegetables and spinach, right?"

"I think so too. She said behind closed doors that she was afraid we might steal her skills. I guess she was afraid of being embarrassed."

"A young woman is so shameless to come and discuss cooperation. What can she use to cooperate with the boss? Her beauty?"

"I think so. After all, beauty is a feast to the eyes."

A few greasy chefs gathered together and talked, and they started to make dirty jokes.

There was only one person who did not participate in their conversation. He leaned against the wall with his arms folded and looked at them coldly.

Seeing that what they said was really unbearable to hear, he interrupted them.

"I don't think she is as bad as you say."

"Hey, hey, is Mumu talking?"

When this person spoke, the other chefs were surprised. You know, they had worked together for such a long time, but he had only spoken a few times.

"Why is it that beautiful women are the easiest to deceive people? Our Mumu started talking when he met a beautiful woman. Those women who try to deceive Mumu are sure to succeed."

Being called a dullard, the man did not get angry. He just looked at the closed kitchen door and said his own analysis: "If she didn't have real ability, why would she come to the restaurant to discuss cooperation. Don't forget who owns our restaurant."

As if to verify Menmu's words, as soon as he finished speaking, a strange fragrance floated out from the crack of the kitchen door.

"What does it smell like? It smells so good."

"It seems to be coming from the kitchen. Could it be the food that woman cooked?"

"No way, I don't think she is someone who can cook."

"Squeak..."

The kitchen door opened amid the discussion. Qiao Linxi looked around at the chefs who were talking the most, and said calmly, "Next time if you gossip about others behind their backs, please stay away. This kitchen door is not as soundproof as you think."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

After being caught gossiping behind people’s backs, the chefs felt embarrassed and could only laugh dryly.

At this time, the shopkeeper just happened to come with his boss.

The moment he saw the person, Qiao Linxi knew that the cooperation was halfway accomplished.

"Girl, this is our boss."

The hostess was a girl, wearing a lotus pink veil and with an outstanding temperament.

"I wonder what kind of cooperation the girl would like to have?"

The other party didn't waste any words and went straight to the point and asked Qiao Linxi.

Qiao Linxi said: "I said before, I will come up with the marketing strategy and menu, you will be responsible for welcoming guests, and I will take 30% of the profits."

"30%?" The female owner was a little surprised. "Isn't 30% too high? You only provided the recipe and the cost is very low, but we need to buy the ingredients and have various expenses."

After a pause, the hostess continued, "Besides, I haven't seen your recipe yet. What if it turns out to be unpopular and your marketing strategy doesn't work? Then I'll be at a loss, right?"

"Miss, since I dare to come to discuss cooperation, I must have a trump card. Please wait for a moment."

Qiao Linxi got up and went to the kitchen. She brought out the three prepared dishes and placed them on the table, motioning for the hostess to taste them.

The chefs stared at the three dishes with their eyes wide open, their mouths watering.

"We'll talk after we taste it."
