"Ningxi, this is Mr. Liu from Lu Jiaban." Rong Daquan politely pointed to the person beside him and introduced to Ning Xi.

The man was holding a large volume of drawings in his hand, and at this time, he also hugged his fists towards Ning Xi and said, "Miss Ning." ”

Ning Xi saw that this person was dressed in a long shirt and looked like a scholar, so he nodded at him hurriedly: "Mr. Liu, hello!" The puzzled eyes looked at Rong Daquan, what is going on?

Rong Daquan excitedly told Ningxi: "Lu Jiaban is the best masonry team in the capital, even the emperor's palace in Xishan invited the master of Lu Jiaban to supervise and supervise, as well as the palace of King Qi, the palace of King Yan, and the garden of Prime Minister Song's family, all of which are the handwriting of Lu Jiaban. ”

Ning Xi was stunned when he heard this.

Mr. Liu spread out the drawings in his hand for Ning Xi to see: "Miss Ning, please see, this is the floor plan of the house we have built in the past two years, can you still see our craftsmanship?" ”

Ning Xi laughed dryly: "That Mr. Liu, in fact, I just want to build a small restaurant." Pulled Rong Daquan hard, and whispered in his ear, "What's the matter, can we afford such a big show?" ”

Mr. Liu said: "It's okay, we can also do it in the restaurant, I don't know what Miss Ning wants to do, and I ask Miss Ning to tell me your idea, and then I will go back and draw drawings for you and send them over." ”

"Mr. Liu, we don't have much money, and we don't think about spending too much money on decoration, you see......"

"You can rest assured in terms of price, we Lujiaban guarantee that the materials are real, the price is fair, your three-story restaurant, plus a small courtyard, the whole repair is estimated not to exceed 1,000 taels of silver, after the drawings come out, we can give you a detailed price list according to the materials and workmanship of each item, if you feel dissatisfied after reading it, then refuse it."

"So good?" Ning Xi was a little suspicious of his ears, such a good thing could also be encountered by himself? There shouldn't be any traps behind this, right?

"This is natural, our Lu family class has been inherited in the capital for more than 150 years, and the emphasis is on a child who is not bullied, we can sign a contract before the construction starts, if we charge you an extra penny, you can also sue the government."

Ning Xi was still not very relieved, and quietly asked Rong Daquan: "Brother Rong, is this reliable?" ”

Rong Daquan was explained before he came, this Lu Jiaban was invited by the five princes to help Ningxi, and now it is just a show, just a formality, so he swears to sù Ningxi, Lu Jiaban is absolutely reliable, this is a good opportunity to fall from the sky, so Ningxi must not miss it.

Ning Xi thought about it, except for the two thousand taels of silver that An Mingyue compensated, she had nothing on her body, even if people wanted to deceive her, they wouldn't get any benefit, it was better to believe that she had saved the earth in her previous life and had such good luck! Therefore, he also said cheerfully: "Then there is Mr. Lauliu." ”

This Mr. Liu is a full-time designer in the Lu family's class, and he went to the original site of Shuangxi Building with Ning Xi to survey the terrain on the spot, and listened to Ning Xi's ideas by the way.

Ningxi also went to learn about the famous restaurants in the capital during this time, in addition to the whole gathering of blessings, there are also Pinxian Ju, Zuiyue Pavilion, Yipinlou, all of which are quite good restaurants, whether it is from the decoration of the restaurant or the dishes, they are all resplendent routes, in order to cater to the preferences of the dignitaries, and these restaurants have strong backers behind them, if the restaurants in Ningxi want to compete with them from the way of wealth, I am afraid that it is not so easy.

But if you want to take the low-end route of popularization, you will not make much money from your hard work, and you will not only be sorry for your craftsmanship but also live up to the trust of Rong Daquan.

Ning Xi thought about it for a long time, and finally thought of one of her advantages, that is, her cooking skills are eclectic and well-understood, and there is nothing she doesn't know about various cuisines across the country.

You must know that the chef of this era, the concept of the master is still very heavy, and he can only learn one person in his life, learning the dishes of a faction, such as Rong Daquan of Quanjufu, he learned Lu cuisine, so Quanjufu is mainly based on Lu cuisine, Pinxianju is to do Huaiyang cuisine, and Yipinlou is the world of Sichuan cuisine, if you go to Yipinlou, but want to eat Wensi tofu of Huaiyang cuisine, it is generally not eaten, even if it can be made, the taste is definitely not authentic.

But this problem, when it comes to Ningxi, is not a problem at all, as long as you can order it, there is no dish that she can't cook.

The capital is prosperous, there are many opportunities, merchants from all over the country come and go, even if it is an official in the court, they are all from all over the world, even if it is a small gathering of colleagues, it is not guaranteed that everyone's taste is the same, if there can be a place, so that no matter where people come from can eat their favorite taste, then wouldn't everyone be happy?

Therefore, Ningxi imagined that the Shuangxi Building she was going to do was such an all-encompassing restaurant.

She also considers the design style of the restaurant, the restaurant has been demolished and recovered, this time it has built a total of four floors, each floor is a cuisine style, the first floor of Lu cuisine, the decoration is bold and atmospheric, there is the majesty of the world, so that people can feel the style of this restaurant as soon as they enter the door; Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine on the second floor, with simple appearance and rich connotation, take a luxurious and unassuming path, full of celebrity style; Cantonese cuisine and Fujian cuisine on the third floor, like a handsome and elegant son; On the fourth floor is Huaiyang cuisine, which is like a beautiful and beautiful Jiangnan girl, graceful and charming.

Ning Xi asked Mr. Liu a little reluctantly: "Will my request be too complicated?" "Merry boy and Jiangnan girl or something, whether the decoration alone can show such an artistic conception, Ning Xi himself has no bottom in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu was full of confidence: "The architectural styles of various places have been dabbled in Xia, but in the same house, it is also a challenge for Xia to show so many different styles at the same time, and I will definitely do my best to draw drawings that satisfy Miss Ning." The words are full of eagerness to try.

Ning Xi said happily: "Then it's hard for Mr. Liu." "Professionals are really different, although Ning Xi can say it, but let her design it herself, in fact, she can't do it at all.

It's just that Rong Daquan has different opinions on her idea of doing all the dishes, as a professional chef, he still has a little bit of his own style: "As the old saying goes, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the essence of a single cuisine is enough for a person to study inexhaustibly in his life, a chef, exhausting his life's strength, as long as he can do a good job of a cuisine, it is already very good, and you still want to do the whole cuisine, this will only be greedy and chewy, I'm afraid you want to do it all, but you can't do anything well." ”

Ning Xi tilted his head and asked, "Brother Rong, which cuisine do you think I belong to?" ”

Rong Daquan was asked by these words, now the signature dishes of the major cuisines are mainly vegetarian dishes, and these meat dishes made in Ningxi usually have both the light and delicate Huaiyang cuisine, and the spicy and fresh fragrance of Sichuan cuisine, it is really not easy to subdivide it. Could it be that there is really someone who is so talented and can learn the eight major cuisines at a young age?

"But even if you can make any of the dishes, we can't make them!"

"Brother Rong, don't worry, with me, I will definitely be able to teach you, in fact, cooking is like practicing martial arts, although each sect has different moves, which looks dazzling, but they are all inseparable from a fundamental, that is, to defeat the enemy and win. The same is true for cooking, no matter how many genres and cuisines there are, isn't the ultimate goal to make the raw materials delicious? As long as we stick to this fundamental, what does it matter how we use to achieve this goal? We should abandon the view of the gateway and integrate the practices of various sects, so as to better carry forward our cuisine! ”

"Ning Xi, I really didn't expect that you, a girl's family, also have research on the way of martial arts? Oh no, I mean, are you really willing to pass on everything you have learned to us without hiding? ”

"Hehe, no, what kind of martial arts practice is just my casual nonsense. As long as everyone is sincerely thinking about Sungai Tower, I promise that I will never treat everyone badly, everyone is a member of Sungai Tower, so why should I hide my secrets? ”

In terms of Rong Daquan's traditional concept of mentorship, he still doesn't quite accept Ning Xi's idea, but Ning Xi does this, which is also of great benefit to himself, so he didn't object anymore, but silently decided in his heart that he must help Ning Xi in the kitchen in the future, and he can't let people steal the teacher, Ning Xi is young and inexperienced, and he doesn't know that people are sinister, but he knows.

Mr. Liu quickly drew the drawings of Shuangxi Building according to Ningxi's meaning, down to the details of the shape of each table and chair, as well as the decoration of each decoration are marked out in detail, sure enough, each floor has a completely different style, not only fully expressing the artistic conception that Ningxi wants, but also adding many of his own opinions, so that Ningxi is breathtaking, this Mr. Liu, if placed in modern times, is definitely a world-class art master! Sure enough, cooperating with a master is worry-free.

Ning Xi immediately made a decision and did so! Lu Jiaban has skilled craftsmen, and immediately started working in full swing, Ning Xi followed from beginning to end, watching the high-rise buildings rise from the ground, the inner satisfaction is really not a little bit, and the industries she owned in the previous life are different, this is completely her own hand and foot to work out, completely according to her own will to build ah, no matter whether the future can be successfully operated, at least at this moment, she is satisfied.
