Volume 2 Debt Repayment Chapter 116 Banquet for the Elders

Isn't it just that he dislikes his reputation a little big, as for working so hard to do this?

Well, whether it is in the military or among the people, they all know that the prince's martial arts are not proficient.

Since ancient times, archers and horses have not been separated, and they can't shoot arrows, that is, they can't do martial arts, and the shooting in the number of jade books in Lile also refers to the archery door, and the prince who has not learned the six arts of the gentleman is far from the invincible prince who is almost passed on.

No wonder he was specially called to shoot arrows today, what kind of archery, it was just a simple embarrassment, Li Chengyang was so angry.

I didn't expect to have a little bit of fame Li Shimin made a move, it seems that there are things that really can't be touched, look at it, it's being targeted.

I don't have the face to continue to stay in the palace, look at the strange eyes of the guards, I don't know what kind of smile I hold back in my heart, don't you just don't know martial arts, fight and pick you a hundred, what's wrong with not knowing martial arts, eat your rice?

It's better to stay in the restaurant, how caring he is, even if he is in the restaurant, the people in the restaurant will not laugh at him, the people in the palace, there is no good thing.

Came to the restaurant, there are no scholars here who come to eat, and a post was posted outside the restaurant to comfort the elders, and the scholars who came to see the post are still enthusiastically explaining for those who are illiterate:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this Yuelai Restaurant is grateful for the kindness of our elders, and now we are ready to offer a lunch to reward the elders, you don't know yet, hundreds of veterans have raised money for each other, and today they are dedicated to Your Majesty, so loyal to the people who serve the country, even if you invite ten meals, it should be, if you come to make room for the elders first, it is written, you will continue to try the dishes at night, you might as well come again at night, I heard that there is wine at night."

After the scholar's words, everyone stopped pestering, and after praising the atmosphere, they scattered.

Although the guests are gone, but the hall is still in full swing, Lao Zhao took out the skills of housekeeping, eight dishes and one soup plus the signature oily noodles have long been put on the table by the waiters, and now someone is coming.

The eyeliner sent out came to return, and the elders were leaving the palace, sitting in the carriage and walking towards the Yuelai Restaurant.

Lao Zhao wore the clothes of a small servant, stood at the door and looked at the direction of the palace, and the whole person turned into a wangfu stone.

The success or failure of the restaurant is here, as long as these old people are served well, then there is no worry that the reputation of the restaurant will not spread, even if the old people will not recommend this restaurant like others, as long as this matter can be successfully completed, the statement of the restaurant will naturally spread out.

When the first tattered carriage appeared on the street, Lao Zhao Tengtengteng greeted him from a distance at the door.

"You can count it, it's all ready for you, come and come, don't be polite when you come in, eat more, it's not enough for you to call."

When the first old man sat down, the old men behind him also arrived one after another, and with the words of the eldest to open the meal, dozens of waiters guarding the table opened several covered dishes together.

The aroma of the long-stored vegetables overflowed, and in an instant the hall was filled with steam, and the noon sunlight penetrated through some gaps such as the skylight of the restaurant, and after the reflection of water vapor, it seemed that every dish was glowing with golden color.

Even those who stood at the door, waiting to open their eyes, were now intoxicated by bursts of aromas that they had never smelled before.

The steam dissipated, the golden color disappeared, and only the dishes on the table still had a faint but persistent aroma.

There are a total of nine dishes, mostly made of mutton, the lamb tongue and lamb belly are finely cut into shreds, sprinkled with some vinegar and sesame oil, now people don't know what it is, the ancient people did not eat internal organs very much, in order to avoid bad effects, the extra fine cut is very fine.

There is also fried lamb with green onions on the side is the most eye-catching, not because of how good-looking he is, but mainly because he is fragrant in the table full of dishes, and it looks valuable, as for why?

Cumin, no, now it should be called benzoin fennel, this is an expensive spice from the Western Regions, which is generally used to smoke clothes, for this dish, Li Chengyang contributed all the spices in his own routine.

Now to make a delicious dish, not only to go to the medical hall to get some medicinal materials, but also to go to the spice hall to find out, Li Chengyang also spent a lot of thought.

The soup is made of fish broth, and the soup is more delicious when boiled with fish head.

The rest of the dishes are nothing to say compared to the previous ones, they are all Tang dishes that people are used to eating, no way, in case someone doesn't want to eat the current Xincai, it can't make people hungry.

This is the current pig can not be eaten, the meat of the current pig has a fishy smell, no matter what, it can't be clean, Li Chengyang has begun to plan to raise pigs, pigs are full of treasures, you can say a dozen or twenty things with your eyes closed, once you have pork dishes like in your previous life, why worry about the restaurant.

It's just to castrate the piglet when it is about the full moon, Li Chengyang doesn't understand this, but who is he, the prince, where does the prince live, the palace, what is the palace most famous for? Eunuchs.

The department similar to the worship room must be there, it's not difficult for them to castrate the pigs, it's all a click, how bad can it be.

Thinking about it far, at this time, the waiters were carrying a tray on each table, because they were afraid that the noodles would be lumpy, so they didn't prepare in advance, and they were all freshly cooked.

The variety of dishes did not attract the attention of the old people at all, and they all simply tasted a few bites and then stopped moving the chopsticks, until the bowl of noodles came up and ushered in the cheers of the old people:

"Okay, the old man has been looking forward to this bite for a long time, our old lady can't do this kind of craft, and she still has to be a chef to taste it."

"That's right, it was all weird stuff before, it looks good, it's not hungry, it's still this noodle."

"Garlic, do you have garlic, bring me one".

I didn't expect that the persistence of the Guanzhong people on the other side has gone deep into the bone marrow, look at the people who are watching the excitement outside, that one is not salivating at the dishes on the table, how can the older generation have a soft spot for this noodle.

No matter what, in short, it is a good thing to be well received, and it seems that this group of old men will often come here to eat in the future, so they immediately opened the kitchen floor with their heads and rushed to Lao Zhao: "Go, tell the old men that as long as they come to eat in the future, no matter how many people there are, they will give a five-percent discount, which is to pay half of the money."

Lao Zhao Wenyan hurriedly put down the noodles in his hand and came to the hall, afraid that the slap would attract everyone's attention:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I just thought about it, they are all from the township, it's not easy, and you have made a lot of efforts for our Datang, and the small ones are really reverent, so that in the future, if you can come, the small ones will only charge half of the money, and we won't frown how many people come."

"That kid, you don't lose money, you can't make it, the money is still given" Someone said that he wanted to stop Lao Zhao's loser behavior.

"Hey, let's tell you the truth, this money is not collected in vain, you go back and say a few more words to the villagers, the boy will receive your love, how much can you eat, just come" Lao Zhao is worthy of being a cook who has been in the palace for many years, this brain is not slow, and then he arched his hand towards the entire hall:

"Although the kid came out of the palace, but he also did this business, there is no way to emulate you to donate money, and now it is all the kid who is stained with light, and it is convenient for you to do it, if you don't agree, I will be sorry for the restaurant."

The people present looked at each other, and finally someone stood up: "That's okay, let's talk to the old people more, they are all good boys, we will accept this filial piety, you go and continue to fish noodles for us, give us a good meal today, and you will not be able to benefit you."

Lao Zhao wiped his face, bowed and thanked him and returned to the kitchen.

Peeking at the somewhat loose floor, his little hand came out of it, shook it with a thumbs up, and retracted it.

Lao Zhao smiled, it's okay, it seems that his response has made Li Chengyang very satisfied.

Li Chengyang is indeed very satisfied, why don't you usually see Lao Zhao's cleverness, Lao Zhao is the one he selected, and he is the only one who is suitable for showing his face, after all, his identity is just a cook, and now it is reasonable to open a shop outside the palace.

Xiao'er, Li Shi, and Li Chengyang are not suitable for Lao Zhao's work, Xiao'er acts more like an all-round logistics staff, and Xiao'er is responsible for the appointment and dismissal of personnel, the procurement of materials, and the account room.

Li Shi touched Li Chengyang: "Young master, is it too much to fold?" Are we going to lose? ”。

Li Chengyang thought for a while: "What is the loss, I have to sell the table outside for at least five taels of silver, and the cost is only how much, less than two hundred yuan, and I will make money by selling it."

Li Shi's small mouth opened into an O-shape, usually eating and drinking enough outside and even calling a little lady who sings, that table can't use five taels, how can the young master in her family say that it is as easy as eating and drinking?

"Look, do you see that there are just dishes on that table? That's the young master's ingenuity, that's the young master's original stir-fry method and iron pot, and the young master's hard work to run the pharmacy and the spice shop, why is it not worth it, is there a second restaurant in the world that has dishes like ours, isn't that a joke" Li Chengyang was dissatisfied with Li Shi's dissatisfaction, why couldn't he sell it for five taels.

Li Shi pouted and stopped talking, his young master is the prince, what is what he said, and besides, it is not something that can be bought for five taels of silver to let the prince run errands.

Li Chengyang rubbed his hot face and didn't say any more, in fact, he also felt that the asking price was a bit high, but there was no way, there was a lack of money, it had to be quick money, his six guard rate was about to be included in his command after Jieli was completely removed, it is said that Wei Chi Jingde and Tong Jin broke a lot of people in the first battle, and now there are 10,000 people.

How much can 10,000 young men eat when they open their appetites? Plus how much can you eat from morning to night? Li Chengyang didn't even dare to think about it, he felt that he was a pitiful little one in front of the path of the desert marching ants, threatening to be gnawed away at any time.

And there is only one way to solve this threat, money! With money, there's nothing to fear.

Black is black, it's a big deal to make this a professional place dedicated to serving dignitaries and nobles in the future, and to open a high price, just find those wronged people, that is, the kind of people who only buy expensive ones and don't buy the right ones.

As long as the service of the entire restaurant can keep up, Li Chengyang doesn't mind turning this place into a gold cave, what distilled liquor will be brought out in the future, one hundred taels and one pot is not the same price, not only is it expensive, I also sell a limited amount, I will sell ten pots a day, if you are late, please be early tomorrow.

Li Chengyang's mind has been filled with a hundred flowers of silver, as if he will become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty tomorrow, and he will be able to dominate one side the day after tomorrow.

Knowing that Li Shi pinched his face, he came to his senses from YY, "What are you doing, young master, I'm thinking about good things."

Li Shi pointed to the copper pipe connecting the hall: "Young master, they seem to be talking about you."
