Chapter 646: Business-minded Oda Kiri
In the West Market, there are all kinds of shops.
Food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking and having fun, but everything that everyone needs can be bought in the West Market.
Of course, there is a lot of people, and there will naturally be more catering companies that serve these people.
Li Shimin is now standing in front of a very special shop, looking at the scene inside curiously.
"Lang Jun, this unified instant noodle is a product produced by a newly rising instant noodle workshop in Chang'an City. It is said that the big proprietor of the unified instant noodle workshop was still the Japanese people who were fishing in the East China Sea in the Ishimi Silver Mountain of the Wa Kingdom, and later took some opportunities to make a lot of contributions to our Tang Dynasty, and His Royal Highness the King of Chu let them become naturalized people from Chang'an County. ”
Although Li Zhong had never been to the shop in front of him, he still knew the big "Unified Instant Noodles" written on the cloth on the top of the shop.
"Oh? I know this instant noodles, and now they are very popular in the Tang Royal Military Academy, and the Ministry of War even purchased a batch of instant noodles for the frontier soldiers to eat. But I've heard that those instant noodles are called 'Master Kong', right? ”
Regarding what happened in the Tang Royal Military Academy, Li Shimin knew more clearly than ordinary things.
After all, he has a very deep understanding of the importance of military power.
"That's right, Master Kang's name is also related to a cook named Kang Laosan in the Yiguo Mansion. Because His Royal Highness the King of Chu made instant noodles for the first time in the Military Academy, it was this Kang Laosan who did it. His Royal Highness the King of Chu did not dislike that he was born as a cook, and called Kang Laosan 'Master Kong', and also instigated this Kang Laosan to cooperate with others to build a instant noodle workshop, specializing in Master Kong's instant noodles. ”
"I've heard a little bit about this. That Kang Laosan can also be regarded as the old man next to Shubao, and the money from Master Kang's instant noodle workshop is still from Shubao. ”
The relationship between Li Shimin and Qin Shubao is extraordinary.
Although because Qin Qiong made far less credit than Cheng Yanjin during the Xuanwumen Change, there was a gap in everyone's relationship.
However, in general, Qin Qiong is still a general that Li Shimin trusts very much, otherwise he would not have been placed in the position of the governor of the Tang Royal Military Academy.
Therefore, he is still more relieved that Master Kong's instant noodle workshop, which nominally belongs to Kang Laosan but is actually an industry in the Yiguo Mansion, provides military rations for the Tang Army.
At least a dozen workshops in Chang'an City are trying to produce instant noodles, but only this unified instant noodle workshop is the latecomer and successfully occupies the second position in the industry."
"Oh? Why is that? Is it because it's cheap? ”
Li Shimin also mentioned his curiosity, and sat down directly after the table in front of the unified instant noodle shop was vacant.
"Lang Jun, if you really want to talk about it, the price of this unified instant noodle is actually not cheap, even more expensive than Master Nakang, but the fact that people can sell it so well has something to do with the ingredients of instant noodles, and it also has something to do with the fact that the owner of this workshop is good at marketing."
Li Zhong saw that Li Shimin was very interested, and simply told all the information he knew.
"The big proprietor of this unified instant noodle workshop is called Yu Chi Xiao Tian Che, and this Wei Chi's sex should be added by himself later, in fact, it should be a widow without a surname. After Oda Kiri began to produce instant noodles, on the one hand, he cooperated with the seafood house of the Chu Wangfu in an ingenious way to purchase a large number of seafood products to make ingredients for noodles, which raised the taste of instant noodles to a higher level.
On the other hand, this Xiao Tian Che was very bold to take out all his net worth to buy a large workshop in the workshop city, and then used this workshop as a pawn to borrow a large amount of money from the Tang Imperial Bank. What is surprising is that Xiao Tianche invested almost all of this money in several newspapers such as "Datang Daily", "Chang'an Evening News" and "Qujiang Daily".
Later, Xiao Tianche cooperated with the honeycomb coal shop in the Chu Wangfu, allowing them to sell the unified instant noodles in the way of first goods and then settling after the sale, which made it very convenient for the people to buy the unified instant noodles. In addition, this Odakiri has also opened a unified instant noodle shop in the eastern and western cities, and we are one of them.
Here, in addition to buying instant noodles, they also provide hot water to customers; In addition, they can also help customers with secondary processing on the spot, adding some fresh seasonings to make the instant noodles more delicious. In this way, although Tongyi instant noodles is a workshop founded by Japanese people, it has gained a firm foothold in Chang'an City for a period of time. ”
"This Xiao Tian Che seems to be still a talent."
From Li Zhong's words, Li Shimin successfully read a lot of information.
First of all, this Xiao Tian Che should be regarded as a person from the Chu Palace.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy for a Japanese to start from scratch in Chang'an City.
Secondly, this Xiao Tian Che is very good at seizing the opportunity, and he is very clever to tie himself to the Chu Palace.
Whether it is the cooperation with "Datang Daily", or the cooperation with the seafood house, or the cooperation with the honeycomb coal shop, it is an act that deepens the traces of the Chu Wangfu on his body.
Moreover, people can be regarded as the kind of innovative talents who are in line with what Li Kuan said.
At this time, Datang has given everyone enough room for innovation.
The introduction of instant noodles is of course to facilitate some people to solve the problem of eating quickly and conveniently.
However, after solving the problem of hunger, it becomes important whether it is delicious or not.
Tongyi instant noodles have put a lot of effort into seasoning, and successfully opened up the gap with other workshops, no wonder they can suppress the limelight of Master Kong's instant noodles in Yiguo Mansion.
"Yes, my subordinates also saw that the development of unified instant noodles was very fast, and the owner used to be a Japanese national, so he specially arranged people to understand it in detail."
"Come, let's sit down and taste it, and see if this unified instant noodle is really that delicious."
Just as Li Shimin and Li Zhong were talking, the guy had already brought the processed seafood instant noodles.
Since instant noodles can be eaten ready-made, the shop only needs to boil hot water and prepare fixed ingredients, and the speed of serving is much faster than that of ordinary food yip.
Li Zhong walked for most of the day, and his stomach was also hungry.
In addition, today he appeared as the housekeeper of Li Shimin, a wealthy businessman, and after hesitating for a moment, he sat down on the table next to Li Shimin, picked up a big bowl of noodles, and started eating.
When you're hungry, instant noodles are a delicacy.
This sentence, placed in Datang, is also applicable.
