28: Accept everything, Liu Qianqian's ambition.
“Just like that, with a simple weighing, over fifteen thousand yuan is in hand?”
Feng Qiang also looked at Su Can with envy.
He even felt an impulse to become a mountain hunter in the big mountains.
However, he thought about Su Can's terrifying strength, then compared it to his own, and silently dismissed the idea.
“Forget it, I can't even handle this line of work!”
“With my strength, if I really went into the mountains, let alone encountering tigers and bears, even encountering wild wolves would be a challenge!”
Feng Qiang still had some self-awareness, shook his head, and couldn't help but look at the remaining wild game.
He was now starting to anticipate how much these remaining items would be worth.
Liu Qianqian also raised her eyebrows, unable to resist standing up from her seat and walking over to the remaining wild mountain produce.
Although she was good at business, professional matters still required professional people.
“Chef Wu, take a look at the remaining mountain produce and see if our hotel needs it. If so, just take it all so Mr. Su doesn't have to go to other places.”
Liu Qianqian meant well; after all, it wasn't easy for Su Can to make a trip with so many things.
She would help if she could.
After Chef Wu rummaged through them a bit, his face became incredibly excited, and he immediately exclaimed:
“Boss, these, these wild mountain products are much better than the garbage we source from the market! What Mr. Su brought are the real good stuff!”
As a first-class chef, seeing good ingredients was like a lustful ghost seeing a beautiful woman; his eyes were practically glowing green with excitement.
However, as soon as he said this, Tao Jing's face instantly became a little awkward.
“Chef Wu, what do you mean by that?”
Tao Jing said impolitely, “The ingredients for the kitchen are all procured with my permission. Now they've become 'garbage' in your mouth?”
“Or perhaps, from now on, the procurement will be handled by your kitchen staff?”
“Uh!”
Chef Wu's face froze; he realized that his words had offended her.
“Manager Tao, don't misunderstand. I wasn't negating your work ability just now. It's just that the ingredients Mr. Su provided far exceed market quality!”
Chef Wu explained with a chuckle, “I believe with Manager Tao's discerning eye, you can also tell that the ingredients Mr. Su provided are all genuine wild mountain products!”
“They can't be compared to those semi-wild items. Look at this houtou mushroom; even big pharmacies can't get this quality. And these wild edible fungi, wood ear, 'see-hand-green' mushrooms, and ground rings!”
“If the hotel uses ingredients of this quality, the taste and flavor of the hotel's dishes will definitely become famous!”
Chef Wu said with shining eyes.
“Is it really that exaggerated?”
Liu Qianqian felt a little incredulous upon hearing this, and at the same time, her questioning gaze turned to Tao Jing.
Although Tao Jing was displeased with Chef Wu's slip of the tongue, she couldn't deny it. She nodded expressionlessly and said:
“The ingredients Mr. Su brought are so good that even five-star hotels might not be able to get them in time.”
“Regardless of appearance, quality, taste, or freshness, they are absolutely top-notch!”
“Dishes made with these ingredients indeed have an unparalleled taste and flavor!”
Tao Jing gave a definite answer.
Liu Qianqian's eyes immediately lit up, and without any hesitation, she said, “In that case, our hotel will take all these ingredients!”
“Good, good, good! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and weigh them! Start with the houtou mushroom.”
Chef Wu was instantly excited upon hearing this, urging the two security guards as if afraid Su Can would change his mind.
Su Can also paused slightly, shaking his head with a wry smile.
“houtou mushroom, two catties. Wild market price, 300 to 500 yuan per catty!”
Chef Wu said with a triumphant expression.
Tao Jing, however, interrupted, “The so-called wild price for houtou mushroom, to be frank, is actually for semi-wild ones.”
“However, this houtou mushroom is so plump; five hundred yuan per catty is justifiable!”
“Then we'll buy it at five hundred yuan per catty. Later, the kitchen will develop an exclusive dish featuring it, focusing on nourishing the stomach!”
Liu Qianqian waved her delicate hand, making the decision directly.
Su Can immediately had another thousand yuan in his account!
Feng Qiang and the other security guards were all jealous. Just these dozen houtou mushrooms, and a thousand yuan was easily in hand.
Damn, earning money was like drinking water!
“'See-hand-green' mushrooms, four catties. Market price, 170 to 350 yuan per kilogram.”
“Greenhead mushrooms, five catties. Market price, 80 to 200 yuan per kilogram.”
“Bamboo fungus, specifically short-skirt bamboo fungus, two catties! As far as I know, the market price rose to 270 per catty yesterday.”
“And ground rings, wild black wood ear, twenty catties and eighteen catties respectively. The prices for these two are slightly lower, with market prices around thirty yuan per catty and forty-five yuan per catty.”
Chef Wu continuously weighed and reported the numbers.
Tao Jing quickly recorded them on her phone.
Liu Qianqian was very generous, directly stating, “These wild products Mr. Su brought are freshly picked from the mountains, so we'll purchase them at the highest market price!”
“Understood, Boss!”
Tao Jing was very efficient, calculating directly at the highest market price.
She quickly finished the calculation, then looked up at Su Can and said, “Mr. Su, your white onion mushrooms totaled 15,600 yuan, houtou mushrooms 1,000 yuan, 'see-hand-green' mushrooms 1,400 yuan, greenhead mushrooms 1,000 yuan, bamboo fungus 540 yuan, and ground rings and wood ear were 600 yuan and 810 yuan respectively!”
“All these items together total 20,950 yuan! Rounding it up, that's twenty-one thousand!”
“Mr. Su, would you like me to double-check the calculation?”
After reporting the total price, Tao Jing asked Su Can.
“No need, I trust your hotel! And I trust Manager Tao's ability!”
Su Can waved his hand, smiled faintly, and showed no concern.
Instead, he turned to Feng Qiang and said, “Manager Feng, please open the bag in your hand and take out two wild rabbits and two wild chickens from it!”
“These are the wild game I promised to bring Old Liu yesterday!”
“Oh, oh, oh, alright.”
Feng Qiang didn't expect Su Can to call him suddenly, and even knew his surname, which surprised him a little.
However, he reacted quickly, responded, and opened the urea bag in his hand, pulling out two wild rabbits and two wild chickens.
“Quite plump!”
Liu Qianqian's expression changed to surprise when she saw the two wild rabbits and wild chickens with their legs tied.
Although she hadn't eaten wild game herself, she was, after all, a third-generation rich kid, and her circle was full of wealthy people.
She knew that these wild game animals were highly sought after by those rich people.
She even knew a few rich second-generation individuals who, for fun, liked to take a group of people to the mountains and wilderness to hunt for these wild game animals.
The wild game they hunted would even be sent to designated hotels for custom private cooking, and the prices were quite expensive.
“Mr. Su, you're also looking for a channel to sell these wild game animals, aren't you?”
“How about this, I'll buy all your wild game. Grandpa couldn't stop praising the stewed mountain rabbit and wild chicken you made yesterday; he was still talking about it when I arrived.”
Liu Qianqian's eyes sparkled slightly, eager to try them out.
And wild game, by its nature, comes with its own buzz and selling point!
If marketed well and the taste isn't bad, it's guaranteed to make wealthy people happily open their wallets and spend at the hotel!
It must be said, Liu Qianqian was quite thoughtful and ambitious!
