Li Xiaoqin initially thought she heard it wrong. After confirming multiple times, her first thought was that Ye Guichen was crazy.
A bowl of noodles selling for 888, it's not gold nuggets, and it's limited?
However, Ye Guichen's intentions were good. Although Li Xiaoqin internally complained, she still politely asked, "Manager Ye, is anyone going to buy at such a high price?"
"Whoever wants it, bites the hook." Ye Guichen turned around and went outside to have a meal with the other security guards.
Li Xiaoqin looked at Ye Guichen's back, hesitated for a moment, picked up her chopsticks, and took a bite of the noodles in her bowl.
The next second, Li Xiaoqin's eyes brightened, and she couldn't help but wolf down the remaining noodles.
After finishing, Li Xiaoqin still had an unfinished look.
"Is there really such delicious noodles in the world?" Li Xiaoqin was completely amazed. Although she didn't know how Ye Guichen made it, she felt that selling it for 888 wasn't without reason.
Moreover, she wondered if it was an illusion, but after eating the noodles, her fatigue from the past few days was gone.
"Hmm, in any case, let's hang out the sign first." Li Xiaoqin carefully took out the small piece of paper Ye Guichen had given her, silently memorized the recipe for the Qiqiao Linglong noodles, and then threw it into the fire to burn.
She knew that although these noodles might not be worth more than 800 yuan, they were definitely not simple.
Moreover, if the recipe she had leaked out, her noodle house would lose all competitiveness.
After doing all this, Li Xiaoqin couldn't help herself and quietly called Zhao Erdan, "Old Zhao, your boss is really amazing."
With a sense of wonder, she recounted the incident.
On the other end of the phone, Zhao Erdan also sighed.
Outside, Ye Guichen and his group ate until after 8 PM. Although the dishes weren't particularly rich, there was wine, and everyone had received tips, so the mood was very pleasant.
"Boss, judging by Brother Gang's look, he's not going to let this go. He might come back to cause trouble here. What should we do?" A security guard whispered to Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen took a gulp of wine, "Fugui, your concern isn't without merit. How about this: you arrange people to guard nearby for the next few days; the salary remains the same."
Ye Guichen did consider that Lin Gang might cause trouble here.
Although the security guards under him were loyal, not many were good fighters. If they really encountered experts, someone like Zhao Erdan being just injured might be considered fortunate.
For this reason, Ye Guichen planned to use Lin Gang's men to train his security guards.
Thinking about this, Ye Guichen stood up.
"You three form a team and take turns guarding for a day. If anyone dares to cause trouble here, you fight back. If you can't handle those hooligans, then pack up and leave. I don't keep losers under me." He raised his wine glass and directly announced the plan.
The security guards immediately felt immense pressure.
But Ye Guichen treated them well, giving them nearly 2,000 yuan each earlier.
After a moment of silence, everyone raised their glasses, "Boss, don't worry, we won't disgrace you."
Meanwhile.
In an office of a nearby bath center.
Lin Gang had a cigarette in his mouth, and his face was gloomy as he stared at Huang Mao, who was trembling on the ground.
Huang Mao had been kneeling for nearly two hours, and his legs were numb.
But he didn't dare to stand up.
Lin Gang didn't allow him to stand, just stared at him.
Finally, Lin Gang said, "Huang Mao, I sent you to collect protection fees, but you lost all the money you collected. So tell me, what should we do?"
Huang Mao's head was almost touching the ground as he trembled, "Brother Gang, I didn't know that guy would bring people."
"Hmph! Useless!" Lin Gang kicked Huang Mao over, gritting his teeth, "When did Jixiang Noodle House have such tough guys? Didn't you say Li Xiaoqin's man was only a security guard? How the hell did he get involved with the Chen Group? Damn it, you get that 40,000 yuan back no matter what."
"Yes, yes, Brother Gang, I understand, I understand." Huang Mao didn't dare to refuse.
Forty thousand yuan it is, if he didn't cough up the money, his life might be over.
"Brother Gang, money is a small matter, are we really going to take this lying down?" Huang Mao finally mustered the courage to speak.
Lin Gang shot Huang Mao a sideways glance, "Take it lying down, my ass! Damn it, tomorrow find two guys who haven't been there today and make sure their business can't go on."
Lin Gang knew he couldn't deal with Ye Guichen immediately, but that didn't mean he would let Jixiang Noodle House off.
Huang Mao's eyes lit up instantly, "Alright, alright, Brother Gang, I understand."
Early the next morning, the security guard under Ye Guichen named Zhang Fugui brought two colleagues to the snack street, keeping a distance and watching Jixiang Noodle House.
They were following Ye Guichen's orders, not wanting Zhao Erdan to feel burdened, and were secretly protecting, not appearing at the noodle house's entrance.
Because Ye Guichen had specifically sent people to take care of Zhao Erdan, Li Xiaoqin was relieved and could focus on running the noodle house, planning to repay Ye Guichen's money as soon as possible.
With Ye Guichen's recipe, Li Xiaoqin had made a sign overnight and hung it up early.
The sign was as Ye Guichen suggested, a bowl of Qiqiao Linglong noodles for 888, limited to ten servings a day.
Seeing the sign, Zhang Fugui and his colleagues were stunned.
"Is Captain Zhao's wife crazy? A bowl of noodles for over 800 yuan, will anyone buy it?"
"That seems to be the noodles the boss made yesterday, right? It did smell quite good."
"No matter how good it smells, it's not worth that much! Boss can fight well, but I'm not so sure about his cooking."
"Haha, maybe the boss has his reasons. Besides, if the boss is willing to help Captain Zhao like this, he won't abandon us when we need help."
"Hmm, that's true. Being able to follow the boss is really our luck."
While Zhang Fugui and the others were whispering, the sign attracted a lot of attention.
The first reaction to seeing the sign was that Li Xiaoqin was crazy.
But this move attracted many people's attention.
Most people didn't buy the Qiqiao Linglong noodles, but they wanted to see how good the noodles in such an expensive shop were.
All morning, not a single bowl of Qiqiao Linglong noodles was sold, but significantly more people were eating noodles than usual.
Busy until past 2 PM, the crowd began to thin out.
Li Xiaoqin's waist was slightly sore from the fatigue, but the smile on her face never disappeared.
"So that's Manager Ye's idea!" To Li Xiaoqin, selling noodles at such a high price was just to attract attention, not really to sell such expensive noodles.
Just as Li Xiaoqin was about to clean up the noodle house, two people walked in from outside.
They glanced at the sign, exchanged glances, and then sat down in the noodle house.
"Boss, give us two servings of the expensive noodles!"
