Not all foreigners could get used to the local cuisine, but this snake stew was an exception.

In fact, it was the first time they had ever agreed so unanimously on anything.

Nelson and his companions also took a taste.

The guests who had come today were all regulars at Ferry House. When they took their first bite of the chicken, they were stunned and thought, ‘Did Ferry House hire a new chef or something?”

Once the collaboration was finalized, they planned to come back and enjoy the meal a few more times.

The foreigners across the table sighed in admiration. “I’m starting to envy you people. Your food is incredible”

The locals, busy eating, merely lifted their heads and smiled without saying anything.

The truth was, this was their first time trying it as well.

If it weren’t for the business negotiations weighing on their minds, they wouldn’t have wanted to share even a single spoonful of this soup.

By the end of the meal, the foreigners looked noticeably more relaxed. It was now certain that the Landstrom family‘ business deal with them was locked in.

When all was said and done, half of the other dishes on the table remained untouched. Only the snake stew was completely gone.

The bowl was scraped clean, as if it had been washed.

Smith leaned back, satisfied but still reluctant to part with the taste.

After whispering something to his companions, he suddenly turned to Nelson and said, “Mr. Landstrom, I have a request- I’d like to meet the person who made this soup.”

What Smith didn’t say out loud was that he was considering poaching the chef.

If he could take this cook back with him, he could enjoy this dish anytime he wanted.

His family could also experience such a delicacy, and he could invite his friends over to share in it.

Smith was convinced that he could eat this stew every day for the rest of his life and never grow tired of it.

When he had mentioned this idea to his friend earlier, the friend had been fully supportive.

Nelson, of course, had no reason to refuse such a simple request. After all, they had a long road of cooperation ahead of them.

He called over a waitress and relayed Smith’s request to her.

The waitress’s expression showed a hint of hesitation, but she still stepped out and went to find the manager.
