These chili peppers were a novelty, so naturally, he wanted them.
Yet, he didn't want his restaurant to launch this new product only for the supply to fall short. That would truly be a case of a clever plan backfiring.
Gu Fei understood Young Master Zhu's concern. She thought for a moment. "Young Master Zhu, I have a suggestion. You could either wait until my chili peppers are grown before deciding whether to buy, or you could buy this small batch of dried chilies now and use them sparingly. For example, the restaurant could introduce one or two spicy dishes a day—first come, first served, or to the highest bidder. That would actually be more effective in attracting customers and keeping them in suspense."
"If you use them sparingly like that, you can probably make them last until the fresh chilies are ready."
Young Master Zhu raised an eyebrow. He had to admit, that was actually a pretty good idea.
