Slowing down the pace of drinking and chatting, the meal lasted until almost eight o'clock in the evening.
Two middle-aged men in large leather aprons entered the restaurant.
At this time, the main door was still closed, so they should have come in through the small door behind the side, obviously, they were acquaintances.
"Boss Xiang, Boss Niu, are you drinking?" one of them asked.
"Yes, why don't you sit down and have a drink together?" Dad Xiang said politely with a smile.
"No need", the two waved their hands repeatedly, and said, "We are just here to congratulate you. What happened in the restaurant this morning has been widely circulated outside. Anyone who listens to the skills of your two will be convinced... Those two, I will definitely do it in the future." Don’t dare to jump around.”
"No, we just hope that the store can continue to open." Mother Xiang said politely.
"Then why can't it? It's definitely possible, and it must be booming." The other party said enthusiastically, "We came here because we thought that since the restaurant will reopen tomorrow, let's help clean up the things in the kitchen first? Leave it to us to collect it?"
"Okay, what's wrong with this? Then you can do it yourself and clean it up. We all drank a lot of wine, so we won't help."
Lao Niu responded with a wave of his big hand. After the two thanked each other, they took two large buckets and went to the kitchen.
This kind of contracting to clean up swill is actually very common. Almost every restaurant has someone come to help with it. Xu Tingsheng didn't think there was anything special about it. He just casually asked, "What do these two people do?" From the farm, right?"
"... I don't seem to have it, I haven't heard of it." Lao Niu frowned and thought for a while, then replied.
"Then what are they taking it for?" Xu Tingsheng asked curiously.
"Ghost knows, not only do they want the daily slop, but they also take away the oil slick from the sewer grease trap every day... I don't know what to do with it... We don't bother to care about it. It's not about the money anyway, just convenience."
Aunt Niu explained casually, and added: "They collect the swill of these restaurants."
"It's not about setting up a breeding farm, collecting swill... The key is even the oil slick in the grease trap..." Xu Tingsheng's dizzy mind suddenly flashed, and a vague idea came to his mind...
"This, can't it? According to the time, the media will report on a large scale, and it seems that it will be around 2009.10... Could it be that this industrial chain already exists now? Yanzhou also has it?"
Xu Tingsheng was puzzled.
What he thought of was gutter oil.
This is a matter that concerns everyone. Xu Tingsheng naturally cared about some related reports in his previous life, but he didn't know much about it. He only knew that this matter actually existed in many cities. In the following years, it was exposed by the media from time to time, and even more A journalist lost his life as a result.
He didn't know that this industrial chain actually existed decades ago, but there were no relevant reports to reveal it at that time.
"They won't sell oil again, will they?" Xu Tingsheng asked casually.
"They don't sell it themselves," Xiang's father said, "but they introduced a seller of oil, the price is very affordable..."
It's almost inseparable. When the entire industry is still hidden in the dark, this group of people even cover up very casually. The slop collector, the introduction of the oil seller... only changed one link.
"Then does our family use the oil they introduced?"
Hearing Dad Xiang say that the other party's price is very affordable, Xu Tingsheng has already started to feel a little queasy, and this is not a small problem involving him alone... Holding back, Xu Tingsheng was a little anxious.
"It's useless," Dad Xiang said, "When I heard the price, I was moved, but I looked at the oil later, and it didn't even have a brand... I dare not use it. After all, what we make is to be eaten. thing."
Xu Ting heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, it's fine if it doesn't work, don't use it."
He didn't feel this state, but in the eyes of Xiang's father, Xiang's mother and Niu's family, it seemed somewhat strange.
"Tingsheng? What's the matter? Do you think there's something wrong with the oil?" Xiang Ma asked.
Xu Tingsheng opened his mouth and then shut it again, hesitating for a moment, now that the other party has a group of people making gutter oil, it is basically confirmed, but it is also because of this, thinking of the possible danger of the reporter who died, Xu Tingsheng dare not let Xiang's father Xiang's mother got involved in this matter, even the basic facts, he doesn't want them to know now.
"No, it's okay. I just agree with Uncle's words. I think that even if we spend a little more on catering, the most important thing is to make customers feel at ease and healthy." Xu Tingsheng said with a relaxed expression.
"Don't worry about that," Xiang's dad responded with a smile, "The two neighbors seem to use the oil from that company. We don't use it, so we still make money? The business is better than theirs."
"They all use that oil?" Xu Tingsheng asked.
"Yes, when those two people introduced it, they said that both of them are in use, and there have been no problems since then, and I am very satisfied." Lao Niu replied helpfully.
Hearing this answer, Xu Tingsheng felt a little different in his heart.
Of the three stores at one intersection, only two are in use. Even if this is a special case, it is enough to show that there are probably quite a few businesses that use waste oil now.
It can be deduced from this: Among the merchants operating on Hucheng's "Hungry Bar", in Yanzhou and in various cities, some of them must be involved...
Their takeaway, the mutual sincerity platform... waste oil...
"I accidentally helped the evildoers... I want to open this dirty industrial chain ahead of time." Whether out of justice and social responsibility, or out of mutual sincerity's own healthy business needs, Xu Tingsheng didn't need too much hesitation. He didn't wait for that brave reporter, he wanted to use his own strength to open up this dark industrial chain ahead of time.
As for the danger, the revenge of several dark gangs is almost negligible to the current Xu Tingsheng.
It was easy enough with his strength. As far as exposure ability is concerned, with Weibo, which has more than 120 million registered users and is extremely active, Xu Tingsheng said that it is second, and the official media may not have the confidence to say it first.
Xu Tingsheng made up his mind in his heart, but kept his face calm.
On the other side, Niu and Xiang didn't notice anything, they had already changed the subject.
"According to me, when the two of them can't continue to do business, we will rent their stores and make them bigger and open big restaurants." Lao Niu, who was already a little drunk, said ambitiously.
"What are you doing here? If you're just frying up these small dishes, no matter how big the store is, it won't make the same difference. There are only so many people, and there won't be too many, so it's not worthwhile." Father Xiang obviously didn't agree with Lao Niu's words.
"It's always good to be big. You can't just be such a small shop all your life and don't want to develop at all, right? I still want to be a big boss." Lao Niu said unconvinced.
"Nothing new, it's useless to be big, you'd better play it safe, you just have too much heart." Dad Xiang was not convinced either.
After they were all drunk, the two old buddies got into a fight.
