Chapter Ninety-Three: The Hakka Inn

The new house was built really big, and it cost a lot of money, a total of thirty-five taels, which completely exceeded the original budget. Moreover, these thirty-five taels are still because the prices of food such as rice and grain have risen recently, and all the rest have been lowered, so that only these silver can be spent, otherwise, if it is based on the market price, it will cost more than forty taels.

moved to a new house, not to mention others, Wang Ya felt very happy, and said: "Mother, great, haluha, we finally live in a new house!" ”

After moving to a new home, it's not like it's nothing, the old house is going to be demolished, or a new house is still built, which is still a blue brick and red tile house, which makes the people of Wangjia Village can't help but speculate about what kind of money the Wang family has made, it is so developed, and the money will be smashed down.

However, because of the construction of the Wang family's house during this time, most of the people in the village have come to help, and everyone has more or less received the corresponding wages, so that their lives are much better than in the past, besides, if the Wang family builds a house, they will have work again, which is much better than just digging in the loess, after all, the crops in the field, as well as the mother-in-law, their men come to help the Wang family build a house, and the salary, so that they kill two birds with one stone!

Originally, because of the reduced harvest this year, everyone thought that this year was going to be bad, but with the stubble of the Wang family's house, their life this year was even better than usual!

Therefore, even if the Wang family seems to have suddenly become rich, no one will be blushing, at most they are envious, everyone has praised the Wang family for being a man, and they have not forgotten the villagers and helped the neighbors when they are developed.

If the old house is to be built into a new house, the scale is naturally not as good as the one on the edge of the official road, but. The materials are also required to be good, and it is still the shape of a courtyard, which is smaller, with an extra gate and a kitchen built in the courtyard.

And Wang Sheng and Wang were busy with the house on the side of the official road, after all, the purpose of this house was to open a place similar to an inn that could make people eat sharply, so it was naturally to be arranged.

It is said to be a place to make people sharpen. Because there is no two-story or three-story loft, the space is not very utilized, and even if the area is large, there are only fifteen rooms, and the remaining six. It is reserved for your own use, and the rest are the kitchen, firewood room and other places.

Towards the official side. It's going to be used to run a restaurant. Eight sets of tables and chairs can be put inside, in this era, there are tables, but the chairs are not so standardized. Benches, and, on two or three long tables, side by side. It seems very long, a long table, a total of ten single chairs can be placed on both sides, then, three long tables, you can put thirty chairs, so that if there are not enough tables and chairs at that time, this can be emergency.

Wang Sheng also asked the carpenter in the village to make these things.

With more Zheng Rong and Zheng Si, I have to say that the Wang family is much easier, Zheng Si's brain is good, basically, Wang Sheng ordered it once, and Zheng Si can execute it very well.

Wang Ya saw Zheng Si's ability and felt that this was simply the best candidate for the shopkeeper, and he didn't have to come forward by himself, how good!

The shop was arranged, and the guest rooms could not be forgotten, Wang Ya's ingenuity did not use the ancient number, but used some auspicious words, such as: Welcome spring! Flowers bloom and become rich! More than every year! Fortune and treasure and so on to name the guest room, as for the order, according to the stroke of the order of the house.

In addition to the name, the house should also be prepared, a table, four chairs, a teapot with teacups, and a covered bedding, and so on!

And they don't need to buy a bed, just build the kang, so that in winter, although it will cost a lot of firewood, but the house is also warm, in the summer, the kang sleeps very cool, it is simply warm in winter and cool in summer.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the whole house is a hollow shape, the whole row in front of it is used as a shop, and the back is the guest room and their own bedroom, in ancient times, the left was respected, so they were from the left to the back are the guest rooms, and the right side is their own house, and the firewood room, kitchen and other rooms.

And this shop was named Hakka, Hakka, Hakka, the home of distant guests, and the meaning is good.

Wang Sheng immediately agreed.

Hakka business, not only can eat, but also accommodation, even what to sell, Wang Ya has thought about it, in this kind of place, the guests are tired of the journey, often want to eat some light food, for example, porridge, side dishes and the like.

It just so happens that the sour bamboo shoots and chili peppers that Wang Ya made before are stir-fried, drinking porridge, and sour bamboo shoots are also good and delicious, or, you can also boil some broth, and then make the noodles in advance, if you want to eat noodles, boil them directly, put some condiments in the next bowl of noodles, and put some condiments, which are fast and delicious, for this, Hakka naturally has to prepare a few small stoves and two large stoves. There are two small stoves, two medium stoves, and two large stoves. In addition to these small stoves, the big stove and the middle stove have a pipe, which lead to the guest room and their own room, between the stove and the pipe, there is a checkpoint, when the kang is not burned, it is closed, and the smoke will go up from the chimney on the stove, if this level is opened, the chimney on the stove is closed, and the smoke will go up through the chimney on the other side.

All of these stoves can burn firewood, and it is not impossible to burn charcoal, but it is too expensive.

At that time, the porridge cooked by Wang Ya and the soup stock boiled will all be stewed on a small stove, and they can keep warm all the time, how good.

When the Hakka is arranged, the house of the old mansion is also built, and in order to distinguish it in the future, one says it is Hakka, and the other says it is the old house.

Fortunately, some things have been bought before, and some large pieces of furniture have been laid, and the size has been set before, and the sizes are numbered, so they are customized in advance, and only bring these things that are ready to be put in place, and it is done.

The old house is built, the layout is the same as the Hakka, and there are some different places, there is an extra gate, the kitchen is in the yard, there are three master bedrooms, one firewood room, one storeroom, and eight guest rooms.

Therefore, it didn't take much attention to decorate the old house, but the time has also entered the late autumn, and since the opening of this official road, people have gradually come over one after another.

However, before, the family was either busy decorating the old house or decorating the Hakka, and the things were not ready, so it was not opened.

It just so happened that on this day, the first day of the ninth lunar month, it was a good time to open, and a string of expensive firecrackers crackled and was officially opened.

Zheng Si wore a brand new dress and became the shopkeeper of the Hakka family.

Wang got up early, boiled the porridge, on a small stove, gurgling and rolling, boiled for a longer time, cooked the porridge soft and fragrant, then turned off the fire, keep warm.

Because it was open on the first day, the Wang family didn't know how many people would come to Ludao, so there was not much porridge cooked, and even if no one came over on this day, his house was finished.

However, obviously Wang's thinking was a little pessimistic, not long after the Hakka opened, the cloth with the Hakka inn written on it had just been hung up, and someone walked in.

Zheng Si hurriedly went up to greet him: "Guest officer, please come in, please come in, may I ask, what do you want to come?" ”

The guest said, "What do you have here?" ”

Zheng Sidao: "There is porridge in the morning!" And some side dishes! ”

The guest waited, waiting for Zheng Si to say it again, who knew that Lu Dao, waited for a long time, but there was no word, the guest said: "Why don't you go down?" ”

"It's gone!" Zheng Sidao.

"None?" The guest couldn't help but raise his voice: "No, you still ask me what I want, hurry up, first come to a bowl of porridge, and then a plate of side dishes!" "Fortunately, this guest is not a calculating, although some crying and laughing, but it is casual to hurry up.

When Zheng Si heard this, he said, "Hey, okay! A bowl of white porridge, a piece of cake! ”

As soon as Wang heard this, he put a bowl of porridge in the kitchen, plus a small plate of hot and sour bamboo shoots, and asked Zheng Rong to take it out.

Zheng Si and Zheng Rong are both paid, so they are very happy to do this work, even if they don't have wages, they will actually be happy, after all, they can take advantage of this to repay the Wang family.

The weather outside is relatively cold, a bowl of hot thick porridge under the stomach, on the sour and spicy bamboo shoots, sour, spicy and fresh, suddenly people are very appetizing, this guest drank three bowls of porridge in a row before stopping.

The guest said: "Shopkeeper, check out!" ”

"Guest officer, you drank a total of three bowls of porridge, a plate of side dishes, a bowl of porridge for two yuan, a plate of side dishes for two yuan, a total of eight yuan!" Zheng Sidao.

When the guests heard this, they were a little unhappy: "What, eight cents, you can't kill people?" ”

"Guest officer, our store is originally at this price, think about it, this is not the village before the store, things are transported here, it takes a lot of effort, so, this price is actually not expensive, not to mention, we use to cook porridge, is the southern japonica rice, the taste is more fragrant, the guests eat, do you feel very comfortable? This small dish, don't look like it's not much, but you really can't buy it anywhere else, this is our inn's unique recipe. Although Zheng Si also felt expensive in his heart, he still memorized all the words that Wang Ya gave him, and said it calmly.

When the guest heard this, he felt that there was some reason, threw down the eight cents, and left!

In fact, often this kind of passer-by will not care too much about this money, after all, the poor family is rich!

Wang and Wang Ya peeked in the kitchen, the shop and the kitchen are connected, but there is a door in the middle, and after the guests left, Zheng Si was called in, and asked nervously: "How is it, how is it?" What do guests say? (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for the peace charm of leisurely afternoon tea!
