Chapter 274: Restaurant
Since the New Year's Festival, a large number of scholars from Zhejiang, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Songjiang have come to visit and gather to gather for the ...... Of course, the crowd is more for food and hemp rubbing.
Anyway, these places are all places where the children of literati come out in large numbers, and for this reason, Suiyuan's fame among the candidates for the examination has risen sharply.
Chen Younian's gang of goods returned to the Zhejiang Hall soon after the New Year, but they didn't stop for a few days, and they brought people to the door every day...... There are also words that are too far from the garden to the Zhejiang Hall, and the dishes sent are cold!
Qian Yuan didn't care about this bit of silver, he was originally a lively person, he went to the sea in his previous life, and often did team building on holidays...... The main reason was that there were no friends in Shanghai at that time, and there was no one to get together.
"Okay, you're really worried about him!" Xu Wei looked at the people who were meeting in the center of the courtyard, "Who is he Qian Zhancai, who will do a loss-making business?" ”
Although Sun Yan is an honest person, he also heard the taste, "Zhancai is gathering contacts?" ”
"!" Xu Wei sneered, "One subject in three years, three hundred jinshi in one subject, and the rich and rival countries are not enough for him to spend." ”
"That ......"
"He's going to open a restaurant." Xu Wei snorted, "The front sells dim sum, pastries, and cooked food, and the back is separated by a special small courtyard, so the price is ...... Tsk, relying on Yulu alone, few Manchu officials could afford to eat. ”
"Oh, that's right."
Xu Wei glanced at Sun Yan and said with a smile: "So he didn't refuse to come...... In his words, these are tasters. ”
Although there was no word "taster" in the Ming Dynasty, Sun Yan could understand it and couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Xu Wei said: "I can get silver." ”
"Mr. Xu's words are too much." There was a rebuttal from behind the two.
Yang Wen took two steps forward, "The young master once said that money is something outside the body. ”
"It's better to say than to sing." Xu Wei and Yang Wen are also familiar with each other, and they pursued all the way from Huizhou Mansion to Taiping Mansion back then, and they were the two of them who presided over the overall situation.
"The year before last in Huating, the young master once said that light wealth is enough to gather people, self-discipline is enough to convince people, leniency is enough to win people, and being first is enough to lead people." Yang Wen said proudly: "The Qian family's guards have never had a frontal enemy, even if they are really widows, they have to retreat. ”
These four sentences are from Chen Jiru's "The Story of the Small Window", which was later greatly appreciated by Zeng Guofan, as soon as he said it, Xu Wei and Sun Yan were suppressed, and they both recalled it repeatedly in their hearts.
Relatively speaking, Xu Wei and Qian Yuan walked closer, thinking back to what Qian Yuan did, he couldn't help but nod and think in his heart, although Zhancai may not have the wish to help the world, but who can guess what will happen in the future.
Both of them had a trace of admiration for Qian Yuan in their hearts, but when they entered the small kitchen, this feeling was swept away.
"There are so many peppers, don't serve them anymore, there's not much cream, and the gang outside are all coming on empty stomachs, so prepare more tea...... Fill them up! ”
"The price of that dish is too low, double, anyway, there is no shortage of money for those who are willing to eat."
"Young master, start collecting money today?"
"Of course not, wait for the Yen Festival, and when the time comes, the sign will be played, and it will be 50% off!"
"The first time I came to eat, I will come the second time, I hid the peppers, leaked them and chopped you!"
"This will be my money printing machine from now on!"
"What is a money printing machine?"
Qian Yuan turned his head and saw the curious Sun Yan, and said with a dry smile: "Joke and laugh." ”
Xu Wei looked back at Yang Wen expressionlessly, "I said it, he just wants to make money." ”
"What's wrong with making money?" Qian Yuan habitually scolded, "Earn money openly, and spend money openly!" ”
"Let's just say that these stoves, those two blacksmith shops can sell seven or eight a day, one and a half pieces of silver, and add some things to the house, this is merit!"
Xu Wei sneered: "Yes, it sells seven or eight a day, one and a half pieces of silver...... But if I'm not mistaken, I'll have to pay you half a tael of silver! ”
"I'll get it out, what's wrong with collecting some money!" Qian Yuan squirted: "I don't want to find a way to get silver, can I afford your gluttony?!" ”
"You're special!"
"Don't pull me, Qian Zhancai ......"
"Let him go." Qian Yuan snorted, waved his arms and clenched his fists.
Sun Yan couldn't cry or laugh, these two people have never been able to be harmonious together, they are all good, and if one is not good, they have to do it.
Qian Yuan has never been polite as a host, and Xu Wei has never been conscious as a guest...... However, no matter how much the former scolds, he will not drive people away, and the latter will not leave no matter how much he scolds.
It's no problem to find a way to make money, the dividends sent by the Taicang Wang family are getting less and less, and Qian Yuan didn't say anything...... It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.
But seeing that the garden will be built after the beginning of spring, and it will definitely cost a lot of money to marry the daughter of the Xu family, Qian Yuan pondered that he went to the sea in his previous life to do foreign trade...... Well, now I don't have this condition, so I simply opened a restaurant.
It is no exaggeration to say that the chefs trained by Qian Yuan are all top-notch when they are put down in the imperial dining room, and the key is that there are a lot of seasonings that are rare in this era.
Chili peppers are the most important, as well as light soy sauce and sesame paste specially prepared for hot pot, and even dried and grated shrimp skin...... Uh, Qian Yuan named it MSG.
The site is also ready-made, just on the left side of the garden, enclosing two acres of land, a good distance from the backyard of the main hall, basically no impact, there are all dignitaries and nobles nearby, presumably there is no shortage of money and so fresh.
Over there, Yang Wen and Sun Yan were still pulling Xu Wei, Qian Yuan was too lazy to take care of it, looked back, and slapped Zhang San on the back of the head, "Eat again!" ”
"The young master is getting stingy now." Zhang San shrank his head dissatisfiedly and dodged to the side, grabbing another snack and stuffing it into his mouth.
"A bunch of bastards!" Qian Yuan kicked over and shouted, "Old Zhou, where did you die?!" ”
Zhou Ze hurriedly ran over, his mouth still moving, "Young Master, send it over now?" ”
Qian Yuan felt tired, and had already communicated with Xiao Qi twice, that one was a master who was not spicy or happy, but every time he couldn't eat any boiled fish or chili chicken.
I had no choice but to rack my brains to make some puffs and send them over privately, but the last letter made it very clear that there were only ten, which is not enough for one person to eat...... The problem is that twenty were sent last time.
Zhou Ze actually said that it must have been eaten by the girl who was attacked...... Qian Yuan laughed angrily, who do you think is like you?!
Although it was only two letters, Qian Yuan also saw something, this is a modern girl who is eager to escape from the cage, I don't know what education she has, but it should not be low, because the first letter pointed out two word errors and three grammatical errors in Qian Yuan's English letter.
Well, still gluttonous, the second letter wrote a long ...... But most of them really can't be done, and some Qian Yuan has never heard of them in his previous life!
It's a pity that we haven't met yet, so I don't know what it looks like...... But the aunt scored seventy-five, and the niece should not be far behind, fourteen years old...... It's time to grow up, too.
Wrapping thirty puffs and handing them to Zhou Ze, Qian Yuan said solemnly: "If you eat it again this time, I will immediately send you back to Hangzhou Food Garden to be a porter!" ”
"Hiccup!" Zhou Ze was stunned, "Young master, I never steal food." ”
"Yang Wen!" Qian Yuan pulled his face and said: "After the Lantern Festival, resume drills, if you can't do it in the city, then go outside the city." ”
Xu Wei has seen a lot of this scene, and knows that Qian Yuan never treats the satellite TV as a slave, and it is common to laugh.
But Sun Yan on the side was a little surprised, the Sun family was also kind to the subordinates, but the subordinates never dared to speak like this.
In a sense, Qian Yuan is the superior who can get the death power of his subordinates in this era. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
