Chapter 1278: Confused Beginning

Seeing that the time was still early, he called Gu Peng again: "That person from the Chinese Cuisine Association, help me contact him and ask him if he has time tomorrow." ”

Gu Peng asked, "Do you want to find someone to help?"

Bai Lu said: "I am holding a banquet by myself, do you think I am a god?" After saying this, there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart, as if he should not notify those people.

Gu Peng said yes, and then said, "I'll call now." ”

"Don't fight, you go and see if Kondo and they are asleep? If they don't, just say I'll ask them for help. "White Road changed his mind. To do such a big thing, since the state is not even notified, why drag these hard-working people who come to a foreign country to work hard?

Although I am promoting Chinese food, it is equivalent to soliciting business for them, but there is no need to tie them together, people have to support their families, it is very hard, and it is better to let yourself do such a small thing as a Chinese feast.

Gu Peng asked: "Don't notify those people in the Chinese Food Association? I think we should find them as helpers, and this is also to help them do publicity." ”

"Don't look for them, ask your classmates, who work part-time, 50,000 yen a day, if they come. Bai Lu said, "You also ask Kondo, he just doesn't have a job." ”

Gu Peng understood and asked: "Hero, do you want to pay all the expenses alone? So can we do publicity? If this is tossed, it will not be able to fight at all without tens of millions, and it may cost hundreds of millions." ”

Bai Lu was startled: "Are you talking about yen or yuan?"

"Yen. ”

Bai Lu sighed lightly: "Surprise me, if it's yen, it doesn't matter if you spend 120 million, if you can't do it, you can buy a lottery ticket again...... Eh, how about I go buy a lottery ticket?"

Gu Peng didn't answer.

"Speak. Bai Lu urged.

Gu Peng said: "A person is addicted to gambling at the very beginning. That's what you do. ”

Bai Lu smiled: "Gambling, I'm too lazy to move, just Xiaoao and Xiaolana and other places, I don't want to take as much as I want...... Are there any casinos in Japan? I'm going to get some money. ”

"Go get the money? Okay, hero, I'm scared by you again, besides, are the Xiaoao and Xiaola you are talking about Macau and Las Vegas?" Gu Peng said: "There are no big casinos like Macau, and the law does not allow them, but the streets are full of pachinko slot machines." ”

"How much money can I win?" Bai Lu was not satisfied.

Gu Peng said: "You are really confident, as the old saying goes, nine out of ten bets lose." You're going to win?"

"You're wrong. It's ten bets and ten losses, I'm not gambling, I'm going to get money. "White Road is as arrogant as ever.

Gu Peng said: "There are gambling boats, and there are also underground casinos. But it's all controlled by the underworld. You may be glorious when you win. You can also leave safely, but you may not have a life flower, if you win too much. The underworld will eat you afterwards. ”

"That's right. Bai Lu thought for a moment: "I have to keep a low profile and not cause trouble, so I won't toss them, it's better to buy lottery tickets." ”

Gu Peng didn't even have the heart to persuade at all, and asked directly: "When will you buy it?"

"Go to the bank tomorrow and withdraw 1 million, buy 1 million, at least 300 million can be returned?"

"Who are you asking?" Gu Peng said: "One million to buy lottery tickets, four months' salary, even if you have a high salary, you have to make up two months, it's crazy." ”

Bai Lu thought about it and said, "It's decided, buy a lottery ticket tomorrow." ”

"Really buy?" Gu Peng smiled: "If you don't make enough of the Japanese Huohuo, you will never stop, right?"

Bai Lu said: "You go to Kondo and ask them first, by the way, what did Shiratori say?"

"He said he would come and talk to you tomorrow. Gu Peng replied.

"Okay, hang up. Bai Lu put away the phone and found a general plan for writing and drawing with pen and paper and making a Chinese feast.

The original idea was to gather a group of cooks, each of whom was in charge of a place, and everyone tossed together. Because Bai Lu didn't want to trouble the country, nor did he want to trouble other chefs, he could only change his plan.

First of all, we need a particularly long booth that can fill the full house.

When it comes to building a Manchu and Han banquet, even Mr. Bai Da is a little big, why? The Manchu and Han banquet is not only a dish, but also a complete set of banquet etiquette culture. The dish is definitely the main thing, the service is also indispensable, first of all, there are beautiful women offering tea, but also there are musicians accompaniment, there is a complete set of processes when serving, which is many times more cowhide than the so-called three-hour French meal.

Manhan Xi is talking about both southern and northern dishes, as well as dried fruits and cold pastries, not all of which are dishes.

The menu may change depending on the audience, the season, or the festival. The emperor has a treat, how can there be the same banquet?

It is no exaggeration to say that there are more people serving services than dining.

The whole set of services, starting with tea and ending with tea, prepares a variety of dishes, fruits, porridge, and even shabu-shabu and grilled meat.

The more complex banquet not only makes new tableware, but also presents a variety of dishes, and there are hundreds of dishes, which take three days to eat.

The simpler Manchu and Han banquets are often said to be one hundred and eight dishes, which are presented one by one and removed one by one, and a special person is responsible for dividing the dishes. Eating a full banquet is not a meal, it is a luxurious enjoyment. Although it may not be enjoyable when eating.

Bailu must not be as troublesome as the traditional one if it wants to make a full banquet for the Han Dynasty, just one point, how can there be so many service staff? It is impossible to serve tea to every guest, and it is porridge and hot pot. He wants to change it to a very simple one, and the easiest way is to just cook, make it look good, and put it in the most dazzling position for everyone to see.

To engage in publicity, it is more important to see than to eat.

In addition, he wanted to make a vegetarian mat because many ingredients were hard to find, such as deer tail, deer tendon, leopard fetus and so on. However, it is equally difficult to make a vegan meal, so how can you integrate the flavors of various meats into soy products?

Also, the dishes must be good-looking, not to mention carving and knife skills, the question is what to do with the tableware?

Well, for the White Road, these are not problems either. The biggest question is how to present all the dishes perfectly, what kind of table is needed to hold these many dishes, and then how to let ordinary guests taste as many Manchu and Han meals as possible?

That's where it's hardest.

What if it rains or blows wind? This season, there may be sand and dust drifting from the Great Northern City. Indoor stadiums can be, such as basketball halls, but they are too small, and they are almost full just by placing stoves, utensils, and all kinds of prepared ingredients.

Now Bai Lu is drawing on paper, first determining what to cook and how many dishes, and after nearly two hours of writing and drawing, he suddenly remembered an idea.

Take the stove as the center of the circle, put eighteen stove eyes on it, and prepare ten steamers, ten cage drawers and ten soup pots. The thirty stoves in the back can be made into rows, like clay pot stoves, with ten eyes in a row, arranged in several rows.

The place where the fire started had to be a high platform, and it had to be very high, with this as the center of the circle, and the lower booth was a booth with layers of lowering. Each dish can be put on the booth for display, and the booth can be set up in three or four floors, and when the booth is full of dishes, there is no place for it to be passed to the guests to enjoy.

One of the troublesome things is to write the name of the dish.

In order to please auspiciousness, there are often the names of the dishes that bloom and are rich, and the magpie is the first dish of the cold cuts. Others have soup dishes such as Sudi Spring Dawn and Erquan Yingyue, anyway, it's just a little, I can't think of what the name is when I look at the dish, and I can't guess what the dish is when I look at the name.

If you don't write like this, do you want to write about ham and cold melon soup?

Shiraji decided not to write the name of the dish.

In his vision, the center of the venue was the white road, and the stoves, booths, and guest seats were lined up one after another.

The table is a square table, the chair is a square stool, and it is required to have an antique color. Anyway, let's make it up, use dark red if you can make it out, use it if you can make it out of wood color, and if you can't make it up, you can use it temporarily.

The initial plan is to prepare 400 sets of tables and chairs, each table of four people, to provide guests with four dishes, one soup and two plates of pastries, no alcohol.

I think so, but first of all, there has to be such a large venue. I'll have to talk to Nobuo Shiratori tomorrow about it.

After thinking about this matter, the new question is how many dishes need to be prepared, if it is 400 tables, 400 tables must be prepared, and if each table is provided with four dishes, 1,600 dishes should be made at noon......

Thinking about it, Bai Lu cracked his mouth and smiled: "I'm so handsome." "Go to bed.

At seven o'clock the next morning, Nobuo Shiratori and President Inoue came and called Gu Peng for a four-person meeting.

First of all, it is necessary to determine the specific number of this matter, such as how much money to invest, how many people to feast, etc.

Bai Lu said: "These are not problems, it mainly depends on the situation of the venue, the venue is big enough, and it is okay to have more people." ”

Shiratori asked again: "What about publicity? What about publicity? How much money are you going to invest in this? There are also things like ticket printing and ticket sales workers, and security and service personnel." ”

Bai Lu said: "Don't worry about publicity, I'll buy lottery tickets later." ”

"What do you mean?" Shiratori asked.

Bai Lu said: "I think if I can win the jackpot, there will be reporters to do publicity." ”

"Are you addicted to buying it? Really when the lottery shop is opened by your family? It's already very good to win the jackpot twice in a row, how many people call you fake, if you win again...... It can't be, it can't be hit again. Shiratori said.

Bai Lu said: "Regardless of whether I win or not, as long as I publicize the matter of buying lottery tickets, there must be a reporter to interview, and when the time comes, I will talk about the Chinese food feast casually, and I am afraid that people will not come? 100 yen tickets......" Halfway through the words, he looked at Shiratori and Inoue and suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Inoue asked.

Bai Lu said: "I have a plan, from the beginning of the publicity, the guests who eat at your fifteen restaurants, you ask them if they want to spend 1,000 yen on a Chinese meal. ”

"Isn't it a hundred? That's ten times longer?" said Nobuo Shiratori.

Bai Lu said, "1,000 yen is not expensive. ”

"What about the tickets?"

"If you don't need a ticket, you can register your name and hotel number, such as when you eat at a Aoyama restaurant, and the content of the registration is the customer's name and the registration number of the day. Bai Lu said.

"Won't it be too much trouble?"

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome at all, when the time comes, prepare sixteen sign-in books, fifteen of which are the registration list of dining guests in your hotel, check by name, and then prepare one more sign-in book, accept telephone registration, and the ticket money will be charged when you enter the door." "White Road returns. (To be continued......)
