"Sister-in-law, not far ahead is where the county government is located, huh...... There is a luxurious garden here, why don't I just rest here, and then go to the county capital to visit my uncle! ”

Jiang Chuxing stopped in front of a foothouse opened on the street and said.

"It's okay, let's go and see Master Jiang after we settle down!" Chen Xu nodded, and a group of people also stopped together.

"Do you guys eat and drink or stay?" Looking at Chen Xu and the others and a group of burly guards with swords, bows and crossbows, a middle-aged man wearing a blue robe with a steward's nameplate on his chest hurriedly ran out of the courtyard of the foot house to greet them.

"Can I stay here?" Jiang Chuxing asked in surprise.

"Naturally, our Wuhu Garden is the largest garden in the county, comparable to the Qinghe Garden of Qinghe Marquis in Xianyang, where you can not only eat, drink, and stay, but also have shops and theaters to shop and ......watch singing and dancing," said the middle-aged man proudly.

"It's comparable to Qinghe Garden...... The steward didn't laugh, if this word reached the ears of the Marquis of Qinghe in Xianyang, he would not be afraid of being cut off! Jiang Chuxing jumped off the horse with a strange face and said.

"Hey, that...... That's just a metaphor...... For example, naturally I don't dare to compare with the Qinghe Hou, don't scare me, the Qinghe Hou is far away in Xianyang, three or four thousand miles away from here, he definitely doesn't know, not to mention that our garden is really good, it is the largest few rich businessmen in the city after returning from Xianyang, everything is modeled on the design of Qinghe Garden, if you don't believe it, you will know that I am not lying! The middle-aged man secretly wiped the sweat on his forehead and said with a dry smile.

"That's good, help us prepare a few clean and spacious rooms, we have a lot of people, can you place this garden?" Jiang Chuxing said noncommittally.

"Don't worry, don't say thirty or fifty people, even one hundred and ten people can live, please Lang Jun~" The middle-aged man greeted a few helpers very enthusiastically to come over and help lead the horse-drawn cart.

Chen Xu looked up at the three seals of Wuhu Garden on the gate of the foot house, nodded and said, "In this case, I will stay here first, otherwise I will go to the county guard's mansion, I'm afraid it will be too much trouble!" ”

"I'll wait for everything to be arranged by Xu Gongzi!" Xiao He, Liu Bang, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and others dismounted together, and then hugged Chen Xu into the inn.

As soon as he heard Chen Xu say that the county guard, the middle-aged man secretly wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeve and followed cautiously, with a more enthusiastic and humble attitude.

Walk into the Wuhu Garden, into the eye is a huge courtyard covering an area of more than ten acres, there have been a lot of cars and horses parked in it, and in the shade of the trees around the courtyard the houses do not know how many, there is a three-storey brand new wooden building in the middle of the crowd like a flock of chickens looks very conspicuous, the lintel on the first floor hangs a huge black plaque, which reads 'Five Lakes Hotel' four vermilion characters, it looks really and the plaque at the door of the Qinghe Hotel is almost exactly the same, and it seems to be much more atmospheric.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the hotel of the garden, behind the hotel is the dormitory area, there is a theater next to it, the street outside the theater is the Wuhu shop, and after the evening is cooler, the theater will have a rehearsal of the legend of the white snake and some Wu Yue characteristics of the song and dance performances, although our Wuhu Park has just opened in March this year, but now it is the most famous garden in the county, the singers and dancers here are also the best in the whole county, the voice is good, all of them are smart, and the night is waiting for the preservation of your Langjun satisfaction......"

The middle-aged man is like a talker, but with the good eloquence and keen eye of a professional manager, knowing that Chen Xu's group of people has an extraordinary background, and the accent of Gudu is not a local, whether it is clothing or temperament, it is an absolute big customer, and the accompanying more than ten carriages can be seen, especially a young man who is guarded by a group of people, although it looks extremely ordinary, but the faint momentum and the respectful attitude of the people around him can judge that this young man's identity is very unusual.

The middle-aged steward doesn't seem to be lying, everything in Wuhu Garden is almost copied from the style of Xianyang Qinghe Garden, from the garden design to the layout of the hotel rooms are very similar, the hotel rooms are still equipped with large round tables and high-backed chairs, and there are several simple calligraphy and paintings of flowers, birds and plants hanging on the wall, even the helpers and maids who come and go are wearing uniform similar to the staff of Qinghe Garden, and the rank of these personnel can be easily distinguished according to the nameplate on the chest.

Under the enthusiasm of the middle-aged steward, many helpers and maids shuttled back and forth to lead Chen Xu and others to settle down in the two independent courtyards behind the hotel.

What makes Chen Xu sigh is that the area of this Wuhu Garden is at least three times the size of Qinghe Garden, hundreds of rooms, all of which are built of wood, corridors and corridors extend in all directions, and each accommodation courtyard is also set up separately with pond flowers and pavilions, and the dense layers of lotus leaves and lotus flowers in the pond sway with the wind to exude a faint fragrance of lotus flowers, and the quiet has a style of Jiangnan Forest Garden in the later generations, which is completely different from the simple and heavy feeling of Xianyang.

After being busy for almost an hour, after all the personnel, luggage, horses, and vehicles were settled, Chen Xu and his group came to the third floor of the Wuhu Hotel for dinner at the invitation of the steward.

Chen Xu is still very interested in the food of this place south of the Yangtze River, Suzhou and Pei County are completely different, here is the estuary of the Yangtze River system, the location is just in the center of the Yangtze River Delta, the Yangtze River in the north, the sea in the east, the Taihu Lake in the west, Zhejiang in the south, and is located in the place where the four rivers are accessible, so it has created a prosperous water town civilization, Suzhou has been the most prosperous and rich land of fish and rice in China for more than 2,000 years, and it has always been the most important commercial town in the Chinese dynasties, the silk in the Wuyue area is famous all over the world, By the time of the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, the silk here was continuously transported and exported to all over the world by ship, and because of the development of silkworm breeding and silk weaving, the embroidery process was also born here at the earliest, which was the famous Suzhou embroidery in later generations.

Under the leadership of the middle-aged steward, Chen Xu, Jiang Chuyue, Jiang Chuxing, Liu Bang, Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Zhou Bo, a total of seven people, landed on the third floor of the Wuhu Hotel.

The area of the third floor is not small, there are seven or eight private rooms, and there is a sightseeing corridor that is more than a foot wide around it, there are windows in all directions, although there are big trees around to block it, but the window can almost still take a glance of the entire county town, and even the Taihu Lake more than ten miles away can be seen.

A group of people walked around the corridor on the third floor with great interest, and found that although it was not yet time to eat, there were already several tables in the private room that were feasting and drinking, and from the chat and conversation, you could hear different accents from all over the country, and through the door you could see some people with different expressions, dressed very well, most of the discussions were about business, and occasionally mentioned topics such as Xianyang, the emperor's parade and the Marquis of Qinghe.

"Xu Gongzi, all Langjun and little lady, this is the largest private room in the Five Lakes Hotel, please sit down and take a look at the menu for the time being, I can do all the arrangements during your stay!"

The middle-aged steward brought a group of people into a huge private room in the direction of the lake, which was divided into a restaurant and a lounge, and seven or eight maids in short skirts and uniforms sat down and quickly served herbal tea, and the menu was opened in front of everyone, all of them were respectful and polite, and they felt that the service attitude was much better than that of Qinghe Garden, and Chen Xu was emotional.

In Qinghe Garden in Xianyang, because of the support of the Marquis of Qinghe, although all the helpers and maids are also very respectful, they naturally have a superior posture, and the officials and businessmen who came to drink and stay in the banquet did not care, after all, it is the industry of the Marquis of Qinghe, even if the prince and the princess arrived, they still had to restrain some of their deference.

But it's different here, it's a purely commercial model, so that guests feel at home, similar to the enjoyment of five-star hotels in later generations.

In the land of fish and rice, the natural food is also based on fish, open the menu, almost all kinds of fish dishes, steamed fish, boiled fish, grilled fish, fried and fried, beef, sheep, chicken and duck These common hard dishes in the northwest also have a few, but it is definitely not the mainstream.

After Chen Xu roughly finished reading the menu, he closed it and handed it to the middle-aged steward and said: "We are new to the city, and we don't know which dishes are appetizing, so let's take one of your hotel's specialties, with some local snacks in Wuzhong, let us eat well, by the way, there is mulberry wine, let's come to ten catties first!" ”

"My sister-in-law has arranged it very well, although I have been to Wuzhong twice, but I don't know what delicious Wuzhong has, I just hope that this Wuhu Garden is really similar to the food made by Qinghe Hotel!" Jiang Chuxing also closed the menu and handed it to a maid and said with a smile.

"What Erlang said is that we are free to serve as the host, just waiting for the delicious food to be served!" Xiao He, Liu Bang and others also hurriedly closed the menu with a smile.

This way to the mountains and rivers, the way to eat and drink Lazar are Chen Xu and Jiang Chuxing in the expense, every time you stay in a county town, you must taste the local specialties, although Daqin's current food practices are very primitive and rough, in Chen Xu's view, it is completely untable, but after all, each issue of the food column in Daqin Metropolis Daily will have about the production of various delicacies and snacks, and almost all the dishes of Qinghe Hotel have been introduced, so in some densely populated counties and counties, You will be able to taste a lot of imitation of all kinds of food, and even the chef according to the taste habits of the local people to improve the dishes, salty, light, sour, spicy, sweet, gradually began to have local flavors, over time, these different flavors of production methods will soon form different cuisines.

"Okay, everyone, wait a minute, I'll go and inform the kitchen!" The middle-aged steward happily instructed the maid to take care of it, and then hurriedly left with the menu.
