Su Ze brought He Qingyao and He Qingmu downstairs while Su Li and Zeng Qing went up to the third floor.

Zeng Qing walked to a room. When the waiter standing at the door saw Zeng

Qing return, he smiled and said, “Old Master Zeng, why are you back again?”

Zeng Qing asked, “I brought a friend over to see Old Xu. Is he still there?”

The shop assistant nodded and said, “Yes, the boss hasn’t left yet.”

Hearing this, Zeng Qing gestured to Su Li. “Please come in.”

Su Li walked in.

The people in the room also stood up when they heard the commotion. Xu Jinming looked at Su Li and asked, “This is?”

Zeng Qing explained, “This is the young lady I told you about last time. That chili was made by her. Haven’t you been thinking about it before?

Coincidentally, she was eating downstairs, so I brought her up for you.”

Xu Jinming’s eyes lit up as he looked at Su Li. Ever since he had eaten the chili Zeng Qing had brought back last time, he had been unable to forget it. He had long wanted to look for Su Li and talk to her about the chili. He had been delayed by something, but he did not expect to meet her today.

Zeng Qing introduced her to Su Li. “Young lady, this is the owner of Xu Ji. He’s very interested in your chili. The two of you can have a good chat.”

Su Li nodded at Xu Jinming and said, “Nice to meet you, Boss Xu.”

Xu Jinming smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so young and beautiful. You’re really young and promising! Hurry up and take a seat. Let’s sit down and talk!”

At first, he thought that Su Li was a middle-aged woman. He did not expect her to look so young, about the same age as his child!

“Alright.” Su Li sat down.

Xu Jinming poured her a cup of tea and said, “Since we’re all familiar with each other, I’ll get straight to the point. I ate the chili you gave me last time. It tastes not bad and can increase my appetite.”

Su Li nodded and said, “Yes, chili peppers contain chili base. It can stimulate saliva secretion, increase appetite, and promote the digestion and absorption of food. It can also relieve the symptoms of indigestion.”

“Chilli also has antibacterial effects. It has a significant inhibitory effect on Bacillus waxyensis and Bacillus drygrass. It can increase the immune system of the body. In addition, chili tastes syrupy and is hot. It has the effect of sweating and decomposing. It is often used to treat illnesses such as cold, cold, no sweat, spleen, stomach, and so on.

Xu Jinming blinked. “So many effects? Is this a medicinal herbs?”

Su Li chuckled and said, “It’s not a medicinal herb, but it has some effects similar to medicinal herbs. Many people have small health problems and don’t need to take medicine. They just need to work hard on eating.”

Actually, there were some small ailments that were usually caused by carelessness. If one was careful, such a problem would definitely not appear, so their usual diet was still very important.

Xu Jinming nodded in agreement. That was indeed the case. Some people usually could not bear to take care of their dietary. They would only think of a solution when there was a problem with their bodies. By then, it would be too late.

Xu Jinming said, “I want to buy some chili from you. What’s your current price? Do you have any more?”

He wanted to buy the chili as soon as possible. Business in the shop had not been good recently. He was still counting on the chili to help him pull the business back!
