Chapter 62: Opening of the Business (Part II)
Changqing Farm opened, and Li Jing prepared a sumptuous luncheon for the guests, which was delicious and hearty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and careful guests have found that this time the dish is no longer just fish, there are chicken and pork, and finally there are self-grown vegetables, as well as a multigrain platter.
This is the official opening, Li Jing obviously not only held such a ceremony according to the custom, but also used this event to tell the guests that the Evergreen Farm has been improved from today onwards, with better service, more comfortable fishing positions, delicious Evergreen tea, novel animals and the River Aquarium open for them at any time, this is the meaning.
"This green vegetable is very sweet and tastes good."
"Multigrains are also good."
"Fish is always the main staple of the farm, and you can bite off your tongue when you eat it...... Leave me some turtle soup, and the scum is good! ”
Arrange such a luncheon, everyone is obviously very satisfied, the ingredients are good, the cooking skills are good, and they still want to eat. This kind of food is not found anywhere else. The reason why everyone is invited to come is not simply to appreciate their faces, but also because of the food in Evergreen Farm.
To eat and drink, you have to go to sports, and of course go fishing. However, before this, according to the custom, the guests will also give the host a red envelope, which is considered a congratulatory gift, and now it is like this when getting married, having children, and living in a new home, and the opening is no exception, and the guests are prepared when they receive the invitation.
"I have a heart, but I won't accept this today."
"If you don't accept it, everyone doesn't accept it."
Li Jing refused one by one, no matter what others thought, he couldn't get used to this anyway. Invite guests to come over for dinner, and receive a big red envelope from the guest, and this red envelope is getting bigger year by year, what is the reason? Is it a treat or a guest invites the host? If it is said that it is to reduce the burden of holding a banquet, then it is even more ridiculous, and there are no conditions to set up two tables less, isn't it? No one lets you do a hundred or dozens of tables, and a good banquet is a burden for relatives and friends, which is a bad habit.
"Why, you won't even take mine? Don't appreciate your face! "Qiu Lao is not happy with the thick red envelope, where are you asking him to take the red envelope? What to do if you fish in your pocket and fall into the water!
"Old Qiu can appreciate his face, the boy is already grateful, how can he accept your gift again? Besides, if I take yours here, and others want to stuff it, I really can't accept it. Li Jing still decisively refused, even if it was Qiu Lao's red envelope, I was afraid that there were thousands of yuan.
Qiu Lao wanted to say something, but Jiang Lao in the back said: "Okay, Li Jing is a particular person, don't embarrass others, just take care of his business in the future if you have this mind." ”
"Jiang Lao said it well, after the official opening of the farm, I ask everyone to take care of it!" Li Jing also politely rejected the people who wanted to line up to salute in the back.
Some of the guests left after lunch, and some stayed for fishing. In the evening, there are some left a la carte to eat. In addition, the guests of the restaurant were endless, and they even lined up in the teahouse. So that today's income is good, and it is finally a good start on the opening day.
It's just that in his busyness, Li Jing pays attention to the direction of the door from time to time, as if he is looking forward to someone, but unfortunately he turns around in disappointment every time.
The sky was already dark, after all, it was not an urban area, and the guests had already left one after another, Li Jing and Sister Hui Chen Jie cleaned up the table. At this moment, a taxi slowly drove in, and a woman in a plain skirt got out of the car, carrying a cake in her hand, slim in the dim light.
"Teacher Mizuzhi." Li Jing greeted him as soon as possible, and shouted from afar, although he was not an emotional person, he was even more moved when he saw the cake in her hand, and said softly: "Do you remember that today is my birthday!" ”
The last time she celebrated her birthday, Su Shuizhi asked, and Li Jing also mentioned it casually, but she didn't expect her to remember it.
"I'm sorry, I came so late because I had something to do before." Su Shuizhi was slightly embarrassed.
"It's okay, I'm already glad you came over, and I thought you were angry with you last time! Don't stand, follow me to the dining room, and I'll tell the chef to cook a few side dishes. Li Jing hurriedly took the cake and brought Su Shuizhi to the restaurant.
Su Shuizhi was paying attention to the situation of the farm, and Li Jing only said on the phone that he was opening a small farm, but now it seems that it is not small, although the hardware facilities are not luxurious, but they are also quite comprehensive, and Li Jing has made such great achievements in a short period of time, which is really not easy.
Seeing that Li Jing went out and brought a girl back, still carrying a cake in her hand, the people in the restaurant were a little stunned, and it took a long time for Chen Jie to say: "Boss, it turns out that today is still your birthday." Li Jing didn't mention this to anyone, and he didn't say the reason why he chose to open today.
"This must be the proprietress of the proprietor, right?" Liu Le, who was lying down watching TV, also straightened up, and secretly winked at Li Jing.
"Don't talk nonsense, this is my friend Su Shuizhi, hurry up and make a few suppers, and everyone will eat together." Li Jing directly sent the two men away, and then asked Su Shuizhi to sit down and make tea with his own hands.
"Don't bother, right? I can't sleep at night with tea. "Su Shuizhi is a little restrained today.
Li Jing listened and hurriedly said: "It's okay, my tea is different from the general one, it is called evergreen tea, and it is more relaxing to drink a cup of tea before bedtime." ”
Su Shuizhi was a little unconvinced, but Li Jing was so enthusiastic, she couldn't refuse. However, when Li Jing poured boiling water into the teapot, a charming fragrance wafted out, and she sniffed the tip of her nose slightly, and finally had anticipation in her heart.
"Hmm...... This tea is so fragrant! Su Shuizhi couldn't wait to taste it, it was also quite amazing, it was rare that even the original fatigue was swept away, which was amazing.
"I'll take some back later, I can drink it on weekdays." Li Jing immediately said.
"Boss, if you let Elder Qiu hear this, I guess I will be very angry." Sister Hui, who was cleaning up the table on the side, couldn't help laughing, Chen Jie then squeaked and told Su Shuizhi about Qiu Lao's request for tea, Qiu Lao was still thinking about evergreen tea when he was about to leave, and even offered 5,000 yuan a catty, which was higher than 58 yuan a pot in the teahouse, but Li Jing resolutely refused to sell it, saying that it was to be used to greet guests.
It's good now, seeing that Su Su Shuizhi likes it, she will send it out without saying a word, and she doesn't blame Sister Hui for saying that if she lets Qiu Lao know, she will be angry enough.
Su Shuizhi listened and hurriedly said: "It's so valuable, and it's not much, you should keep it for the guests!" ”
"Don't listen to them, although this tea can't be given to others, you have to drink it, and it's available at any time." Li Jing was resolute.
These words seemed to be a little explicit, Su Shuizhi kept brushing her hair, and her ears were feverish. Fortunately, Zhang Chao quickly brought out the food from the kitchen, which alleviated the embarrassment in her heart.
"You wait." Before moving the chopsticks, Li Jing ran back to the main house, and when he came back, he was still holding a glass wine jar, which was red like wine, but it was not soaked in grapes.
"This is my own soaked myrtle minoru wine, there are not many of them, even the guests are reluctant to let them drink it, you must taste it tonight!" Li Jing introduced that when the myrtle was out of season, Li Jing picked some in the valley where he found pheasants, and soaked a few pots of rice wine, which he secretly tasted, and it tasted very good.
"Shui Zhi, we are all blessed by you tonight." Sister Hui teased that although Li Jing is good to them on weekdays, he is not as active as he is today, and he takes the initiative to move out of any good things.
"How can there be ......" Su Shuizhi couldn't raise her head, this meeting, Li Jing's excessive enthusiasm also made her unbearable, and they used to get along with each other quite restrained.
At the beginning of the meal, all the employees of the farm were called, and Li Jing also used a red wine glass to scoop up the self-brewed Minoru wine for everyone, and raised a glass and said: "Today's farm can be officially opened, it is inseparable from everyone's help, I will respect everyone first!" ”
The aroma of the wine is strong, everyone's minds are no longer here, and they are in a hurry to send it to their mouths after touching Li Jing perfunctorily, and the next moment everyone's expressions become exaggerated! The amazement in my heart is completely revealed on my face, this Minoru wine, the taste is quite fragrant! Even Aunt Lin, who didn't dare to touch the wine at first, drank more than half a glass.
"This wine is very fragrant and sweet, and it tastes good." After drinking, Su Shuizhi's face was red and very cute.
"If you like it, thank you for coming over for my birthday." Li Jing toasted to her.
"Yes! Last time was also your birthday for me. Su Shuizhi didn't dare to look at Li Jing's eyes, and took another sip, and his face seemed to be a little redder again.
"Although the alcohol content is not high, it will hurt your stomach if you drink it on an empty stomach, so hurry up and eat vegetables." Li Jing hurriedly greeted everyone.
I heard that it was Li Jing's birthday, and Liu Le made the most careful preparations for tonight's dish, and played a twelve-point level, and the taste was better than usual. During the meal, no one cared about talking, only Li Jing kept serving Su Shuizhi vegetables. Good tea, good wine, good food, everyone eats to their contentment.
However, when it was time to open the cake at the end, Liu Le and the others found an excuse to get off work, and only Li Jing and Su Shuizhi were left in the whole farm, and the atmosphere was a little ambiguous and a little embarrassing. Su Shuizhi was very anxious, but she brought the cake, so she couldn't leave at this time.
Li Jing didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, so he had to put the cake on the table, open it and take a look, and the words were written on it: Happy birthday, the opening is auspicious!
