Chapter 1: Can't afford to eat a restaurant and make money by bragging
Witch World Yunmengchuan.
Witch Palace.
Empress Lujiao was in the Spirit Cultivation Palace, listening to the report of the Prime Minister Captain Xiaohe.
"Your Majesty, after more than ten years of bloody battles by the soldiers. The forty-three realms lost by my god clan have all been recovered. Recently, the demons have shown signs of deploying troops to prepare for a large-scale counterattack. Regarding His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, although there is news that he has appeared in my god clan, I have not seen him himself, so it is difficult to determine whether the news is true or false and his whereabouts. ”
"It is also worth mentioning that the whereabouts of the Demon Emperor are also unknown. ”
The Demon Emperor, the mysterious powerhouse of the Demon Clan, second only to the Demon Emperor, has killed many famous generals of the Demon Clan.
"In addition, the demon clan has a large personnel transfer, and there are frequent interactions with the demon clan, showing a trend of unity, which wants to be unfavorable to my god clan. ”
After listening to the report of the Grand Lieutenant of Xiao He, Empress Lu Jiao said: "Continue to investigate, the more detailed the better." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty obeys. "Captain He stepped back.
Empress Green sat alone in the main hall, thinking in her heart. She muttered to herself, "There's always a sense of foreboding......"
The Imperial City of Witch Spirit.
A small wine in Dayuefang.
Zhang Zhong'er was lying on the table with her hands bored, her eyes staring out of the tavern without focus.
There wasn't even a single dog on the street.
After waiting for a long time, Zhang Zhong'er's eyelids gradually hardened, and he swayed and dozed.
At this moment, a white fat man and a stunning beautiful girl suddenly walked in outside.
The two of them were dressed in fine brocade satin, and they didn't look like ordinary people.
Zhang Zhong'er immediately cheered up and greeted him.
"Lao He, Xiao Jiao, what are you going to eat today?"
He knew this man and a woman.
Don't look at the young age of that woman, her status is not low at all, but she is the behind-the-scenes boss of the Chengdong Grand Slam Silver Horn.
The man is also very powerful, and he is a salt merchant in the imperial city authorized by the imperial court.
Two people, one richer than the other.
Since we often have business contacts, we often eat together.
Zhang Zhong'er didn't have any skills, so he could cook, so he simply set up a small restaurant.
The name of his small restaurant is: "I can't afford to eat a restaurant".
Although the restaurant is small, the decoration is very luxurious and comfortable.
The most powerful thing is that the cheapest plate of fried cabbage costs ten taels of gold.
A casual meal requires at least 100 taels of gold!
This kind of price of cheating people, unless a madman comes in and eats it.
However, there are quite a few crazy people who come to eat.
Moreover, these madmen are addicted to eating and will definitely become die-hard fans of "can't afford to eat restaurants".
This man and a woman were two of them, and they were very generous. In addition to paying for meals, Zhang Zhong'er will also leave a little extra reward every time, so he will get acquainted with each other after coming and going.
Sometimes the two go together.
Sometimes Lao He came alone.
"Make a few dishes you haven't cooked for us. I have to eat all the dishes you cooked!" said the beautiful girl who was called Xiaojiao to Zhang Zhong'er with a smile.
"With your skill, we like to eat any few dishes. Lao He was also smiling, "We are all regular customers, do you remember our habits?"
"Oh, how dare I forget this. Each dish is divided into two servings. Zhang Zhong'er nodded.
"Okay, you two distinguished guests will find a seat to sit first, and I don't have any manpower, so I won't take care of it. ”
After saying that, he turned around and went to the back kitchen to show his skills.
Lao Yu and Xiaojiao seem to have long been used to it, and they found a half-partition mansion by the window very casually and sat down. Then, in a whisper, he was thinking about something.
Not long after, Zhang Zhonger came out of the back kitchen with two trays of identical four dishes and one soup on them.
They are: crispy stewed pork, Xiangxi sour pork, rock sugar Xianglian, braised cold mushrooms, and seven-star fish ball soup.
Don't look at the four dishes, but it didn't take long.
Quickly!
These dishes, divided into exactly two portions, were placed in front of Lao He and Xiao Jiao, with bright colors and attractive fragrances, which made people have a great appetite when they looked at them.
Lao He looked at Xiaojiao politely and saw that she had moved her chopsticks. I couldn't help but take a piece of crispy stewed meat from my plate, close my eyes and chew it despite some hot mouth, and try to maintain a little gentlemanly demeanor.
Zhang Zhonger also discovered a wonderful phenomenon. When Lao He and Xiaojiao come together, he will behave very cautiously, and he will not smack his lips when eating, and the amount of food is not particularly large.
But when Lao He came alone, he would not be so elegant to eat, and at least two or three hundred taels of gold would be eaten at every meal
"I said shopkeeper, how do you make these dishes? I can't hide it, I've traveled all over the years and basically eaten all the world's famous delicacies. However, if you stir-fry cabbage casually, you can beat all the famous dishes in the world! A shallot-to-to-to-tofu makes me dream of it. Lao He said vaguely while eating. "Sure enough, it's a penny, a penny!"
"As the saying goes: people don't know goods, but money knows goods. Your plate of cabbage, although more expensive than the sea cucumber squid in the big restaurant, is indeed better than the sea cucumber squid!" Xiao Jiao also filled this wonderful food into her mouth and praised: "Lao He is telling the truth. Your food makes people miss it in their dreams, and I love to eat your bite, even if I am busy every now and then, I can't help but want to come and try it. ”
For the praise of customers, Zhang Zhonger was of course humble, leaving a sentence of "Hehe, you two use it slowly." Then he returned to the counter, and once again raised his hands to look outside.
Xiaojiao took a sip of soup, closed her eyes intoxicated and enjoyed it for a long time, before she slowly opened her eyes and said thoughtfully: "Lao He, this avenue is connected." The shopkeeper can make such delicious food, and he is also a person who is proficient in the avenue. ”
"Grandma Xiaojiao, have a good eye!" Lao He praised respectfully, and then shouted at Zhang Zhong'er: "Shopkeeper, come and sit and chat with us, it's boring for the two of us to eat." ”
Zhang Zhong'er, who was napping, was awakened by Lao He's voice, and hurriedly answered and walked over from the platform.
Zhang Zhong'er is used to this kind of calling, every time these two distinguished guests come to dinner, they have to let him accompany and chat, and they talk about some people's livelihood issues.
They seem to be particularly concerned about the lives of the people, the survival of society, the livelihood of the people, the lives of the masses. What kind of people can eat enough and clothe warmly, what kind of business is good or not? What is not Ta?
Officials, law and order, and so on.
Xiaojiao sometimes raises it to an unprecedented height of "ism", national policy, and historical outlook.
The two are simply experts in the study of people's livelihood issues.
People who do big business have a different realm.
It is said that politics and business are not separated, and what they say is true!
However, this chat is not free, and every time the two hear his high opinions, they will always leave a reward.
Zhang Zhong'er himself is also a blower, idle and bored, in front of them can not only brag addicted, but also make money, why not?
