Cheng Xiuli's relaxed expression vanished completely.
Whenever she hears about Clear Soup now, she gets a headache. Chen Mo did provide the recipe a couple of days ago, but while cooking it, you can't leave the pot unattended and have to watch it constantly.
Moreover, during the latter stages of cooking, you have to repeatedly use minced meat to filter the broth. Bao Shuai already stayed up late making two pots—though the taste is decent, it ultimately isn't as clear as Chen Mo's Clear Soup.
"Boss Xiao Chen, can't we just use water directly?"
"We could, but then the taste would be no different from those common street food stalls," Chen Mo replied frankly.
The logic is simple: to taste better than others and to have better business, you definitely have to put in more effort than others.
