After a bumpy ride, the carriage finally entered the city.
Although this thing was much more comfortable than a bullock cart, when Su Liuye got off the car, her buttocks still felt numb.
However, just after getting out of the car and walking a few steps, Qin Lian rushed out of the store with a worried look on her face, "A Liu, you are finally here! Our new snacks have been leaked out again!"
With one sentence, Su Liuye frowned on the spot, "The formula that was just taken out yesterday was leaked today?"
Qin Lian was also furious, "Who says it's not the case? This thief is too arrogant. It's obvious that he doesn't take us seriously!"
Looking around, Su Liuye lowered her voice, "Don't worry, ask Xia Zhi to buy some snacks and bring them to me first. I will find this traitor within today!"
Qin Lian immediately sensed something was wrong, "Do you know who it is?"
This time, Su Liuye smiled and said, "You will naturally know when Xia Zhi comes back after buying something."
After saying that, Su Liuye walked straight to the restaurant.
Behind her, Qin Lian was stunned for a moment, then stamped her feet and turned around to enter the kitchen.
Not long after, Xia Zhi came back with newly made snacks.
After carefully closing the door, Xia Zhicai took off his mask, "Half of the new products we released yesterday are already on the other side. It's only been one day, and the other side's movements are not slow."
Su Liuye smiled, "No matter how fast they are, it's useless. What they stole can't be as fast as us, no matter how fast they steal it?"
While talking, Su Liuye's men kept moving and quickly opened a pack of snacks.
However, after just one bite, she stopped and sighed leisurely.
Sure enough, she guessed the right person...
Seeing her look like this, Qin Lian immediately took a snack and asked, "Is it so delicious this time?"
"Try it first before talking."
With that said, Su Liuye handed a piece to Xia Zhi, "You try it too and see what's wrong?"
After all, he is a person who makes snacks every day, but something went wrong with Xia Zhi as soon as he took one bite, "The taste of this snack is completely wrong, there is no perilla leaf!"
Su Liuye smiled, with a hint of meaning in his eyes, "Do you remember yesterday? I specially left a few recipes for Lao Hu, and none of them contain perilla leaves."
"Why did he do this?" Qin Lian was puzzled. "He is the number one chef in our restaurant, and you won't pay less. If he does this, isn't he ruining his own job?"
"Perhaps only he himself knows about this matter." Su Liuye stood up, "Let's go and ask in person to see what's going on!"
…
Half an hour later, Qin Lian opened the curtain in the kitchen, waved to Hu Jinming, and smiled sweetly, "Old Hu, you come out first!"
The people around him only glanced at him and continued busy with what they were doing.
Only the knife in Shi Feng's hand not far away gradually slowed down.
Soon, Hu Jinming followed Qin Lian upstairs, "Lianlian, you said the shopkeeper was looking for me? Did she say what happened?"
"Don't worry, you'll know when you get there."
Qin Lian smiled on the surface, but there was no trace of smile in her eyes. She coldly opened the door for Hu Jinming, "Please!"
Hu Jinming tried to keep calm, but the moment he stepped into the door, he still couldn't hold it in and panicked.
At this time, Su Liuye and Chu Yan were sitting side by side at the round table. At first glance, neither of them had any emotions on their faces, but the atmosphere in the room was obviously not relaxed.
"Shopkeeper, are you looking for me?" Hu Jinming was trembling as he spoke.
Su Liuye nodded, not bothering to beat around the bush with him, and directly picked up the snacks on the table, "This should be the formula you gave to the Yingxian Pavilion opposite, right?"
As the oil fell, Hu Jinming's whole body tensed almost instantly, but he did not admit it, but looked straight at her, "So, the shopkeeper gave me those prescriptions yesterday just to test me?"
Su Liuye was noncommittal, "The store has been busy recently and the dim sum needs manpower. It's not fake."
"Then what if I say that I didn't leak this recipe?"
Su Liuye smiled meaningfully, "There's no rush, why don't I let you meet someone first, and then you can think carefully about how to speak!"
After speaking, Su Liuye clapped his hands.
The next second, the door opened again, and Xia Zhi walked in with a little girl who looked like a maid.
When she first came in, the little girl was a little timid.
But the moment she saw Hu Jinming, the little maid's eyes lit up and she shouted, "Old Hu!"
With just two words, Hu Jinming's expression changed instantly!
"What are you yelling at! I don't know you at all. Who are you calling?"
The little maid was stunned for a moment, blinking her eyes at a loss, "Old Hu, don't you recognize me? I'm Qingqing from Yingxian Pavilion opposite, don't you recognize me?"
"What about Yin Qing and Ying Xian Pavilion? I don't know you, so don't do this to me!"
I don't know if Lao Hu's expression was too cold, but the little maid couldn't get angry anymore and shouted at the top of her voice, "Hu Jinming, are you sick? I kindly gave you two prescriptions, and also I took money from you twice, and in the morning you said you would treat me like your sister from now on, and this is how you behave in the afternoon?"
Hearing this, Hu Jinming's whole body trembled again. He was about to say something, but when he turned around, he saw that Su Liuye and Chu Yan looked like they were sure of winning!
For a moment, what he wanted to say was stuck, "The shopkeeper..."
Su Liuye shook her head, "No need to explain, Lao Hu, I think I am here, and I will never say anything to you. I have nothing to apologize to you. Just pack up your things. From today on, you will no longer be I’m the chef of Cyclamen!”
But as soon as Su Liuye finished speaking, Hu Jinming's face changed drastically. He took two steps forward and begged, "No, shopkeeper! You can't drive me away! If I am fired because of this reputation, Now, which restaurant will dare to ask for me in the future!"
Su Liuye was unmoved, "This is your own choice. You should have known when doing this kind of thing that there will be no good end after being discovered!"
"But...but I was really obsessed for a moment, shopkeeper! Please give me one last chance. I swear, I will never dare to do such a thing again!"
"It's too late," Su Liuye still looked expressionless, "You do this kind of thing, other restaurants don't dare to ask for it, how can I dare to ask for it?"
Su Liuye raised his head and looked straight over, "I will convert your work here into money and give it to you. If there is no problem, you can pack your things and leave today!"
After saying that, Su Liuye stood up and said, "Let's go!"
Chu Yan nodded and stood up with her.
Just as the two people were about to walk out of the room, Hu Jinming suddenly turned his head and looked straight over as if he wanted to kill someone!
"Su Liuye, stop for me!"
