Chapter Seventy-Three: Chen's Fast Food Comes Together
For several days, everything went according to plan, with no rain or wind.
On the opening day of "Chen's Fast Food" on the pier, it was crowded with people, gongs and drums, and the strange crowd was rubbing shoulders with each other!
The "Chen's Fast Food" building covers an area of one acre, and the entrance is a small square of four acres; The bluestone slab floor of a water is flat, open and bright!
The ancestors of the Han Dynasty, how have you ever seen this kind of catering form of "eight dollars are as you can eat", and you can choose more than a dozen dishes?
The entrance to the first floor is extremely wide.
At the entrance there was an old man, high above a strangely shaped "chair"; There was a large box in front of him.
According to a few brightly dressed slaves standing at the door, as long as you put in eight big money, you can enter, and you can eat steaming soup cakes and rice!
The dish is a few neatly dressed slaves, each holding a long spoon, and you specify which dish to beat:
Oily fat intestine stewed beans, green vegetables, white bean curd, with real dipping water, as well as the mouth-watering sauce bones, stewed soft and glutinous pork lung radish... There are also chicken offal and stir-fried pork liver that are said to be "fried"; Even the stewed fish is shiny and attractive!
Free green onion bone oil soup for everyone to "hook" after dinner.
For these dishes, Wencheng specially chooses cheap, simple, and quick to serve varieties; Those slaves who bought it, their cooking skills are not very high, and they can only make this kind of "one-pot stew" thing.
That's all, it's enough for everyone to shout "delicious and affordable".
~~~~
The old man at the door, standing on the originally high "chair", shouted loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers! The store opened today, and the first 100 neighbors who came to cheer are all free! β
Now the crowd exploded all at once!
Eat for free?
"Hulala" all of a sudden, the surrounding "Chen's fast food" is impassable, splashing water is difficult to enter!
It's just that everyone didn't dare to squeeze in - Duan Baye had already let out his words: Whoever dares to cause trouble, fight, or pickpocket in Chen's fast food restaurant and in the square will jump over the stream and river by himself!
Otherwise, someone will take a sack and help your family jump into the river...
The eighth master also specially warned the three sects and the nine streams: as long as you enter the realm of "Chen's fast food", there is no distinction between the noble and the lowly, and there is no distinction between barbarians and Han people!
All of them have the same identity: the patrons of Chen's fast food.
Even if the other party is your father-killing enemy and your wife's pony, as long as you don't get out of the five-acre boundary of "Chen's Fast Food", you are not allowed to seek revenge!
No, that Duan Baye was sitting at the door of Chen's fast food, sitting on a strange-shaped "chair" with a backrest, looking at the big guy with a smile!
On the periphery of the "square", dozens of well-behaved soldiers stood brave, with swords hanging from their waists and holding long sticks; That's one zhang and one post, ten steps and one sentry!
ββThe restaurant of eight pennies, both black and white to endorse?
Hiss... This, this Chen's fast food, is very big!
I just don't know: How can such a big person afford to buy and sell this mere eight dollars, isn't this a copper coin for the bitter haha?
- I can't figure it out
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it! Hurry up and get in line and have a free meal, it's serious!
Those shopkeepers and bookkeepers who are stationed on the dock all the year round, take care of the business for the head of the house, and are responsible for receiving merchants, naturally do not need to enter through the gate on the first floor. A wide staircase leads to the second floor.
On the second floor, the tables, chairs and benches are all fresh.
Rao is a well-informed shopkeeper, and he has never seen this kind of high chair and eight immortal table!
The dishes on the second floor are basically the same as those downstairs, only braised pork and shredded pork with Beijing sauce have been added; It's just that the tableware is more exquisite and the environment is more elegant.
Now the taste of these guests is not bad, and in the future, the taste will be improved, and then appropriate new products will be added.
The guests on the second floor, sitting upstairs, can watch the Lifu and the guys working downstairs closely; You can overlook the Yuexi River, and the boats come and go.
And the tea soup is free, which is equivalent to the teahouse of later generations - as long as you drink it, just drink it!
There are also a few groups of storytellers who tell stories to everyone around the clock... Their income depends on "full attendance" and "tipping".
Guests spend 30 big bucks to eat a round belly; Drink tea soup again and sit on the comfortable chair.
While watching the scenery, bragging and farting with peers and merchants, while urging the guys to work; It's like curling up in a barn and a straw hut, it's cool, don't want it!

"Humph! Rotten wood built on an elevated frame, sooner or later it will collapse! "Sister-in-law Gu's daughter Xiaohui, standing in her own shop, the elder with a small face.
Sister-in-law Gu looked at the soup cake shop that was crowded with people and no one in her own house, and glared at her daughter with a solemn face: "Don't go forward when you see the official, don't go behind as a guest; The sharp blade cuts the body and the scars are easy to close, and the evil words hurt people and hate them!
Xiaohui, shut up.
To be able to demolish this wharf, which was originally the warehouse of the Zhao family's Haoqiang, and the old man who also used the people's servants to build the building, can I afford to provoke this kind of grass people?
The characters who can let the eighth master come to see the field in person and dozens of soldiers bravely come to stand guard, in this Han'an County, there will be no more than three fingers!
Xiaohui, you must be cautious in your words and deeds! Otherwise, the disaster will come in an instant! β
Xiaohui was so frightened that her face turned white: "I, I just, I just can't figure it out!" The old man of Chen's fast food, according to Grandma Li, is just a farmer in Dongshan Township.
The shopkeeper, I don't know what kind of crazy person he sent, and the eight cents make people let go of their stomachs to eat, so they can't eat him? Our family eats soup cakes, and if we let go and eat to our heart's content, we will also get eight words!
Those big brothers on weekdays, who is willing to eat like this? I only dare to eat a half-full, soup cake with four or six yuan..."
"Shut up!" Sister-in-law Gu's expression was awe-inspiring: "Beware of misfortune coming out of the mouth!" β
Then he sighed: "Xiaohui and Mao Dan, you sisters and brothers don't understand this business experience. Although I don't know which master's property is Chen's fast food.
It's just that Wei Niang can see it: this old man dares to be the first in the world. Regardless of the success or failure of the result, with this courage, he is a powerful person!
It seems that there are many poor laborers who are reluctant to eat a lunch, and they eat eight cents by themselves;
It's not: they're going to eat only one meal a day from now on! I didn't eat the morning food, and I saved the evening food.
There is enough oil and water, and those who work hard, who doesn't like a lot of oil and water? β
Sister-in-law Gu pointed to several people who came out with one hand on her belly and the other on the wall: "Look at it!" In the future, these coolies will definitely go in and come out with their hands on the wall... Alas, the first floor of Chen's fast food should be able to make money.
Xiaohui, you don't want to think about it, they have such a strong background and such a large purchase volume, so the rice flour oil... Everything will be cheaper than what we small households can buy!
Harsh taxes and filial piety money from all walks of life, I'm afraid the Chen family will not come up with a penny.
However, I thought that my mother's rough estimate - on the second floor, it must be very profitable.
Those stewards and merchants are not short of oil and water, how much can they eat?
Downstairs, just rely on oil and water, let go of eating, and there is one more: no one dares to make trouble on the five-acre boundary!
Do you remember that the people who come to our house for dinner are most afraid that they will bury their heads in their own food and get a brick on the back of their heads? There are twenty or thirty gangs of all sizes on this dock, fighting and shooting black bricks every day!
- But look at this posture, who dares to make trouble in Chen's fast food?
Just by virtue of it, if people can eat a good meal, its business will be bad! β
Sister-in-law Gu patted her forehead:
"This Chen's fast food has so much ability. If it intervenes to mediate disputes between gangs. In the future, the second floor of that place will become a place for the gangs to 'count'!
Even if the 'protection fee' is sold, which gang dares not to cheer?
ββIt seems that our soup cake shop will not be opened. β
~~~~
"This store can't be opened!" Chen Zhi, who returned home, said to Chen Wan, Chen Huishi, and Chen Pei with a flushed face.
Chen Wan hurriedly refuted:
"Why is this so? Father, the gentleman has always been steady! Father, I'll observe for a few more days..."
Chen Zhi laughed, and the wrinkles on his face were stretched out with excitement: "Where did Wan'er say come from!" I am glad for my father, and I am glad that my family is doing business, and it is so good! β
Chen Zhi lowered his voice: "Have you ever known that battle! It's more lively than New Year's Day and Mid-Autumn! The Dongshan Township meeting is not as many as there are people in our store today! β
Chen Zhi exhaled a long breath: "There are more than a hundred shopkeepers, gang leaders, and people from afar on the second floor... Hiss, it seems to be a barbarian!
A thirty-year-old has made a lot of money!
Always a lot of money!
Previously, Erlang instructed his father to provide food for 100 people for free, and he was so scared that his father didn't sleep all night!
How many copper coins do you have to put in that?
At least six or seven hundred wen, have you been eaten in vain? Also free salt boiled water at the door! Isn't firewood, labor, and salt money? is angry as a father, and he almost didn't scold Erlang for being a loser!
Hahaha, I didn't think that the first floor would be able to earn back these copper coins...
Do you know that those shopkeepers and merchants on weekdays are all high-ranking figures!
Hahaha, for my father to go to the city to sell mountain goods, when I saw these people, I had to hide; I'm afraid I'll get into trouble.
Hmph, now, they all have to respect me as a 'fifth master'!
Yes... Comfortable!
Without Erlang's help, how can there be today's scenery for his father?
As a father, I now know the ability of my family's husband. Serve, if you don't accept it, you can't do it!
Those soldier masters, when they enter the store for lunch, they are all submissive - we, grass people, have we ever seen a polite soldier master? β
When Chen Wan heard this, she was relieved: "Erlang is a good person. Wan'er doesn't want to be rich and rich, she just wants her husband to be safe and secure; can take care of her father's livelihood, Wan'er has nothing to ask for! β
Chen Huishi took over the conversation:
"I was worried that so many of our families would suddenly move here; Every day, I can't go in and out, and I sit and eat empty.
I am afraid that Erlang will be corrupt since then.
Now it seems that Erlang has a plan in his heart; Wan'er is blessed, the Wen family is blessed, and our Chen family is blessed!
Hey, I said you're a Chen Wu, Hugh wants to gain power once he wants, and he doesn't know how much he counts. Mo Yise, bring trouble to Erlang, see if I don't bite off your dog's head! β
Chen Zhi smiled: "How can it!" Compared to the days when I suffered in the countryside, now it is heaven and earth, can I not cherish it?
I heard that the black dwarf man sitting at the door today is the best Duan Eighth Master in our Han'an County!
Have you ever known the famous name of the Eighth Master?
The 'crow' in our Dongshan Township lights up the knife at every turn and flips the table at every turn; It's time to be a character rampant in the township, right? When I saw that section of the eighth master, he bent his waist like a rabbit trying to escape, and he didn't dare to come out!
Hmph, in the early years, this crow also blackmailed me for twenty cents.
Say that the eel I sell is not a smelt!
Carp grass carp with large belly and seeds, is the female; The eel is male and female, who can pick out the male and female for him?
Alas, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't afford to provoke and was worried about causing trouble to his family, he really wanted to chop off his bird's head with a knife! β
Chen Huishi opened his mouth to persuade: "He is ruthless, he is ruthless!" Thirty years later, how many ruthless people will be left? He can, he can! Ten years later, a capable person entered the flower gate. Don't worry about it, it's only right to live a good life. β
Chen Zhi nodded: "Old woman, why don't I understand your words?" I was deceived by these splashes, and I had the right to feed the dogs for two days!
Now, I just want to run that restaurant from now on - called Chen's Fast Food? Haha, it's really interesting to name this Erlang! He is worthy of being a reader.
Erlang's kindness, I will cherish the old man!
named Chen's, isn't this just a shop for the two of us to support the elderly! I know.
Rest assured, you won't cause trouble or trouble for Erlang. β
Nothing was said all night
I can't say what I want to say
ββAt this moment, Wen Cheng has already led the troops to Ba County with the county lieutenant on the way to quell the Ban Yu rebellion...
