Chapter 597: The Imperial Dining Room
Ο's mental state changed from sluggish to full of energy, smirking and constantly refreshing the backstage, watching the number of collections rise like a rocket. Although Zhang Zi'an is also very happy for it, he still reminds it not to always refresh the background, and almost start writing today's new chapters, finish it early, go to bed early at night, and don't always stay up late.
It nodded in agreement, switched to the ord document, wrote a few words, and couldn't help but refresh the background, write a few more, and brush it again......
Seeing its appearance, Zhang Zi'an couldn't help but shake his head and smile, just like when he got his salary for the first time, he always couldn't help but check how much money was in the card over and over again and how to spend it.
He didn't dissuade it anymore, just wait for it to get used to it, this is the so-called heart ape horse.
The mobile phone rang, and Lu Yiyun asked him to go down, and an acquaintance came to visit.
He glanced down from the window on the second floor, and it was Liu Sanlang's BMW parked downstairs.
"Ο, I'll go out first, and I'll be back in a moment. He greeted Ο and led her downstairs from the pantry.
"Store Manager Zhang, how is Xiaola?" asked Liu Sanlang as soon as he saw him. It was Zhang Zi'an who called him over and said that Xiaola had already trained.
Zhang Zi'an motioned for Xiaola to sit down, "It should be almost there, you can take it back, but you can't pamper it after you go back, otherwise it will soon return to the way it was before...... As the old saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. β
"This ...... Is this Ra, really not another dog?"
The obedient little Raling Liu Sanlang in front of him couldn't believe his eyes, is this still his own little devil who demolished the house?
Mola sat on the ground with her tongue out, not screaming or running, and although the look in her eyes indicated that it had recognized its owner, it did not pounce on him as cheerfully as she usually did. If it weren't for the collar that Shishi had bought for him around his neck, he couldn't have been sure if it was Xiaola.
"Store Manager Zhang, how did you train? It's amazing!" Liu Sanlang rubbed the top of Xiaola's head, and it squinted its eyes with enjoyment, but it didn't bark as happily as usual.
"In fact, the secret of dog training is very simple - orders and prohibitions, rewards and punishments are clear, as long as these eight words are done, anyone can train the dog to be very well-behaved, even if it can't be like a police dog, at least it will not cause trouble and harm to others. Zhang Zi'an did not hide it, but he also knew that it was easier said than done, people who like dogs and have no experience in dog training are easy to lose their resistance in front of the puppy wagging their tails and begging, and unconsciously change from human dog taming to dog taming.
Liu Sanlang kept every word Zhang Zi'an said in his heart, no matter what the poem said after going back this time, he must not be pampered anymore, otherwise he couldn't stand the protests of the neighbors alone, and he couldn't stand it one day, and he might have to go to court.
He asked Zhang Zi'an for a novice dog training tutorial, and he didn't know where he threw it before, and then paid the dog training fee as promised, and led Xiaola away.
"Store Manager Zhang, we have almost decorated here, come and take a look. β
Liu Sanlang walked on the front foot, and someone knocked on the door on the back foot, who was the person in charge of the construction team responsible for the decoration of the shoe store.
The decoration team is busy from morning to night every day, and the workers want to make the last business before the Spring Festival beautiful, and then take their wages home for the New Year, both the construction progress and the quality are impeccable.
Zhang Zi'an followed him into the shoe store next doorβit should be considered a branch of a pet store now.
The first floor of the shoe store is empty and there is nothing, and the new shiny tiles, beige latex paint walls and brown baseboards look clean and bright. He didn't think about what to do with the first floor for a while, but he told the renovation workers to reserve more sockets on the walls in case they were needed. Now there are more and more electrical appliances, and the pet store used to renovate too few sockets, often stretched, and there are drag boards everywhere, which is not good-looking.
He followed the person in charge up to the second floor, which used to be a living area like a pet store, but now it has been redivided into smaller compartments according to his requirements, and special soundproofing materials and insect protection measures have been added to give the Abyssinian cat a dark and quiet delivery environment. The interior doors are custom-made, and each door is equipped with wide-angle glass windows, so that people can stand outside the door and see the situation inside without entering the house, so as not to be frightened when the mother cat gives birth.
On the second floor, in addition to the delivery room and nursery room, there were half of the rooms he hadn't thought about what to do, maybe they were used as warehouses.
After carefully inspecting it, he was deeply satisfied with the construction quality and couldn't find any faults, which was worthy of the team introduced by Guo Dongyue.
The only thing that worries him is the environmental protection of the decoration materials, because he has to move in almost immediately after the renovation is completed, and there is no time for ventilation and odor. On this point, the person in charge patted his chest and assured that there was no problem, and the test report of the relevant departments would be issued before delivery, and harmful gases such as formaldehyde, ammonia, and benzene would never exceed the standard.
After receiving the guarantee, Zhang Zi'an was relieved that there could be no problems in terms of health no matter what. After a few more exchanges with the person in charge, he left first when he got the estimated delivery date.
Back at the pet store, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Richard fluttering his wings flying up from Lu Yiyun's shoulder, flying high like a thief.
"Richard, you have to be idle and play by yourself, don't always disturb Xiaoyun to draw. He warned.
"It's okay, it's okay, Richard is very helpful to me in drawing!" Lu Yiyun hurriedly clarified, "Mr. Store, don't blame it, it helped me think of a lot of interesting plots!"
Zhang Zi'an glared at Richard suspiciously, he didn't believe that this cheap bird would do good deeds with kindness, could it be that it wanted to rectify Lu Yiyun?
Richard quietly combed his feathers with his beak, "Quack, what are you looking at, don't spend your little heart in the belly of a gentleman!"
Zhang Zi'an didn't have the heart to quarrel with it for the time being, so it was better to wait for the night to hang it up.
Walking inside, he saw Fina yawning lazily and said, "Fina, come with me to the door." β
"Hongu is not going. Fina categorically refused.
"You should at least ask where you are going, right?" he said helplessly.
"Why do you ask? It's not as warm as in the shrine. Fina glanced slowly outside, "In such a cold weather, do you want to freeze to death and then seek the treasures of this palace?" β
"Meow meow meow! What Your Majesty said is extremely true! This stinky man is full of fancy intestines, Your Majesty must not be fooled!" Snow Lion echoed and said, "If Your Majesty feels cold, the slave family is willing to use your body to warm you!"
β...... I'll change it later, but I actually want to discuss it with you...... Your Imperial Dining Room. Zhang Zi'an casually made an excuse.
Fina, who was about to yawn for the second time, blinked, as if she had some interest, "Hongu's ...... The Imperial Dining Room?"
Zhang Zi'an knew that this cat who had to be happy with his achievements would be interested in this statement, and accurately did what he liked, and it succeeded. In Fina's concept, under the whole world, it is not the cat's soil, the shore of the land, and the cat's minister, since this is the shrine, of course, there must be a supporting imperial dining room.
"Of course!" he said in a matter-of-fact manner, "don't you know that the roast chicken breast you eat every day is brought by the imperial chef of the imperial dining room?"
Fina tilted her head and thought about it, it only cared about eating and sleeping every day, and really didn't pay attention to Uncle Li's appearance, for it it was just a mortal, and never thought that he was actually its imperial chef......
"Well, you have a point. Of course, Fina would not deny that the more people who serve it, the better, so she nodded reservedly, "So what?"
"Ahem! That's ......" Zhang Zi'an cleared his throat and began to talk serious nonsense that he was best at, "because ...... The big cat kingdom has been in a recession recently, and the business of the imperial dining room is not very good......"
"Wait! Big Cat God's ????" Fina's eyes widened in surprise, and she was completely tired.
"Yes, there is the big cat kingdom under our feet, because where you are there is the divine palace, isn't the place where the divine palace is the kingdom of the gods?"
This sycophant was very useful, but it immediately frowned again: "The imperial dining room only needs to serve the main palace, why do you want to do business with the outside world?"
"Because...... In order to better serve you, the Imperial Dining Room tries not to occupy the budget of the shrine, and the Imperial Chefs have decided to operate independently and take care of their own profits and losses. Zhang Zi'an explained.
As soon as Fina heard that she didn't need to use its money, she immediately relented, "That's very good!"
He continued to fool: "However, their business has been sluggish recently, and they have been losing money one after another, so they came to tell me about it...... I'm thinking of two solutions, one is that the shrine will be responsible for filling their shortfall......"
"No!" Fina flatly refused, and said in a tough tone: "The treasures of this palace belong to this palace, and no one can take them!"
Zhang Zi'an knew that this would be the case, so he put forward the real purpose: "The second way is for you to personally go to the imperial dining room to inspect them, find out their problems, and help the imperial chefs turn losses into profits, they will be grateful and never forget your kindness for the rest of their lives - in ancient China, this is called 'Imperial Driving Expedition', or 'Weifu Private Interview', which was particularly popular in previous TV dramas." β
Fina held her head up proudly, "That's inevitable. As long as the palace comes out in person, there is no problem that cannot be solved. β
Zhang Zi'an smiled secretly, the comment of that book friend was really to the point, Fina's character is really too secondary, and she is the only one in the world anytime and anywhere.
"That'...... Shall we go now?" he asked.
"Well, Hongu hasn't been to the imperial dining room yet, so I'm just going to take a look. Fina jumped off the cat frame on her toes.
"Meow meow, your majesty goes, and the slave family will follow!" the snow lion followed.
Zhang Zi'an saw that Fina was scheming, so he asked Lu Yiyun to look at the store first, and took Fina and the snow lion out of the door.
When he walked outside the store, when he turned around, he saw Richard flying to the cash register, showing a very disgusting smile, muttering something to Lu Yiyun, and making her red-faced, but she didn't seem to be disgusted, but nodded vigorously.
"Hey, it's so cold!" Fina shivered when she was blown by the cold wind, and complained, "Why is it so cold here?"
The snow lion brazenly leaned over, "Meow meow, Your Majesty, you can ride on the slave family and use the slave family as a cushion to ensure that it is warmer than a warm baby!"
"Bear with me, what kind of carriage do you want? It's not enough for the starting fare of a taxi, it's just a few steps. Zhang Zi'an said perfunctorily, but it is indeed not far, that is, one or two hundred meters.
The snow lion intimately walked in the upwind direction and used his body to block the wind for Fina. Its long hair, which can hide eggs, is not afraid of all wind and cold, but Zhang Zi'an thinks that it will be very uncomfortable in the summer......
Fina and Snow Lion's appearance is one of the best, one is heroic and one is soft and cute, walking on the road is extremely eye-catching, especially a few young girls, who have gathered around to pet the cat, but they are too frightened by the snow lion to dance their teeth and claws, but even so, they also took out their mobile phones and clicked to take pictures, but unfortunately Fina and Snow Lion did not cooperate, always twisting their faces elsewhere.
The undead girls followed them, and unconsciously followed them all the way to Lee's snack bar.
The tricycle stopped at the door, and Wang Qian and Li Kun didn't leave for the time being after sending the cat over, helping Uncle Li and his wife to re-tinker with the furnishings in the store.
In the past, the tables in the store were evenly distributed, like every ordinary restaurant, but if it is changed to a place similar to a cat cafΓ©, it can no longer be placed like this, and it is necessary to free up enough space for cats to move, although this will lead to a decrease in the number of tables, but since the opening of the snack bar, the tables have never been occupied, so what's the use of putting so many tables?
Zhang Zi'an pushed open the door and let Fina and Snow Lion enter the house first, and he entered again. The bored young girls in the back hesitated for a moment, and when they saw that this was an ordinary snack bar, they also followed.
As soon as Uncle Li saw Zhang Zi'an, he walked over with a new plaque and asked humbly, "Master Zhang, is it really ...... Do you really want to change the name to that?"
According to Zhang Zi'an's request, the new plaque was changed to "Li's Supreme Cat Sucking Snack Bar" due to the featureless "Li's Supreme Cat Sucking Snack Bar", and the new name of this crazy cool and handsome made Uncle Li and his wife, who have a strong traditional concept, feel uneasy.
"Don't worry, doing business pays attention to taking the lead, not to mention anything else, just seeing this name, someone must be curious to come in and take a look. Zhang Zi'an cheered them on.
When the girls who came in saw this extremely fresh plaque, they asked curiously, "What is a cat sucking snack bar?"
Zhang Zi'an gave Uncle Li a look, meaning: What do you think I said? Business has come to the door!
