Chapter 15 The Distinguished Guest Arrives
When she was done with this, Old Man Mu killed the chicken and cleaned the chicken feathers, ready to disembowel.
The old man took scissors to cut open the belly of the chicken, took out the internal organs of the chicken, and used scissors to cut the chicken intestines and chicken fungus (chicken gizzards), grabbed the ashes of the grass and wood and washed them, and after washing the coarse salt repeatedly, he took them into the stove room and put them in the cupboard.
"Sister, Sister, there is someone outside in a big carriage parked outside our yard," Luo An ran in with the candy that Luo Zhi bought for him for the first time in his mouth, and said crisply.
"Who" Luo Zhi washed his hands and walked towards the gate of the courtyard, and Old Man Mu was not worried about his granddaughter, so he also followed.
Outside the courtyard wall, there is a double-drawn green oil carriage, and a large copper bell is hung on the eaves of the roof of the carriage, which makes a crisp and pleasant "jingle bell" sound as the wind blows. Next to the car stood a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy with delicate eyebrows and eyes, dressed in navy blue cloth.
Luozhi heard Yao's shopkeeper say that only "shi" were qualified to ride in the family that could make a two-horse carriage in ancient times, (a taxi was a small nobleman in ancient times), or a very famous person deserved to enjoy it. This carriage is equivalent to more than 300,000 luxury cars now, such as Audi A4, Mercedes-Benz C-class, BMW 3 Series, Camry, etc...... Luo Zhi retracted his thoughts, he didn't know any other nobles except Lin Da Bing?
The little girl saw a little girl with a strange hairstyle looking at her, so she asked, "Little girl, is this Mu Guihe's family in Mujia Village?" ”
"Who are you?" Old Man Mu said loudly, Mu Guihe is his old man's name.
"Boss, it's time to get there," said the little servant respectfully to the people in the carriage, and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain.
An old man over half a hundred years old got out of the car, with high cheekbones on a Chinese face, two brown eyes deep and bright, and the fine light in his eyes was not to be underestimated. The gray hair is neatly combed, and it is tied with a hair ring made of unknown material, and the temperament on the body is not angry and arrogant.
"Hello brother, I'm bothered to visit today," the old man said to his grandfather.
"You are?" The old man looked at him in bewilderment.
"Uncle, my owner is the owner of Chunhe Restaurant in Ji'an Town, Li Yuanwai," the little guy replied.
Old man Mu was shocked, this Li Yuanwai is a well-known landlord in Ji'an Town, Chunhe Restaurant has opened all over the country, such a big man Qu came to the house, the matter should not be small, the old man "sighed" in his heart.
The old man hurriedly opened the courtyard door and invited the master and his servants into the house.
After Luo Zhi revealed his identity as the head of the family, he knew that this Boss Li must have come to find himself. It's a disaster that can't be avoided, it's a blessing that can't be stopped, and look at this person's words.
Li Yuanwai quietly entered the courtyard gate, and looked up and down the Luozhi standing next to the old man, and had a plan in his heart.
Luozhi poured two bowls of water, one to Li Yuanwai, and one to the little guy, so bluffed that the little guy shook his hand and said no.
Luo Zhi thought about it carefully, the ancient social class was strict, the barriers between the subordinates and the masters were clear, and she still retained the habit of treating people equally in modern society, so she didn't say much, and put the tea on the table in the hall.
Li Yuan's family is poor, but the popularity of this family is a little extraordinary, and he is neither humble nor arrogant in bringing people and things, especially the little girl, from knowing his identity to now, she has always been calm, calm and calm.
"The countrymen don't have anything to entertain you, this dim sum was just bought by Luozhi from the town today, Li Yuanwai will try it," the old man politely moved the You Long Fa cake to Li Yuanwai's hand
"Big brother doesn't need to be polite, I took the liberty to come to the door today, please don't be surprised," Li Yuanwai touched the beard on his chin and said.
"I don't know why your guests came to the door?" The old man asked. In the past few days, the big people in Ji'an Town have come to the door before and after, and the old man doesn't know what luck he has suddenly taken?
"I heard that my brother's granddaughter is a smart and delicate little girl, and I came here today mainly to meet her," Li Yuanwai muttered.
"My granddaughter?" The old man repeated.
"Exactly". Answered without hesitation.
"Li Yuanwai shouldn't be looking for me for the sake of food recipes, right?" Luo Zhi asked straight to the point.
"The little girl really has a blue heart, just guess" Li Yuanwai looked at Luozhi with a smile, this little girl's heart was straightforward, and he was almost saved a lot of tongues.
"Since Li Yuanwai can find my family, he should have inquired about it, my food recipe has been sold to Xuanyuan Building, one party does not sell the second owner, this ideal comes to Li Yuanwai to understand better than my little child's family." Luo Zhi said in a clear voice
"Fang Zi does not sell the second master, this is a rule that everyone understands, I came here today to see you. Of course, if you have other food recipes to sell to me, then I can't ask for it, you can rest assured that the price will only be higher than Xuanyuan Building. ”
Li Yuanwai's family has been in business for generations, and until his generation, the scale of Chunhe Restaurant has expanded much faster than the previous four generations of ancestors. Chunhe Restaurant can have such a scale today, in addition to his own strong management ability, the most important thing is that the dishes of Chunhe Restaurant are innovating quickly, retaining the original classic signature dishes, and constantly developing new dishes to attract guests, which has been on a par with Xuanyuan Lou in recent years. But now the situation is worrying, these days my own Chunhe restaurant door can be full of birds, and the day is not safe. Xuanyuan Building is like a cloud, and the dishes are in short supply. The big shopkeeper rushed to Fucheng overnight to find him, he stung in the town for two days, and found the source of Xuanyuan Building's good business, the little girl standing in front of him.
"I would like to thank Li Yuanwai for his appreciation of me, it is all a blind cat touching a dead mouse, and it is just good luck. I'm already exhausted, and all the recipes I know have been betrayed to Xuanyuanlou, and I don't know where Li Yuanwai learned about me? ”
I am still too high-profile, I don't hide my clumsiness, I just want to make money, but I forget that ancient society is not modern, and socialism has laws and regulations to protect citizens in everything. In this ancient time, if Li Yuanwai was annoyed and angry, it was easy to kill himself.
Luo Zhi felt a fluster.
"It doesn't matter where you know, if I don't inquire clearly, I won't come to the door in person, little girl don't worry, today's visit is just to recognize the door. If you do have other food recipes or spice recipes, you can boldly propose what conditions you want to sell, and I will try my best to meet them. "What a shrewd person Li Yuanwai is, he knows that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it.
"Li Yuanwai, no matter where you heard about me, there are no spice recipes, and no chili peppers are gone, they have all been pulled away by Xuanyuan Building." Luo Zhi gritted the socket of her back teeth and said that she had died once, and of course she didn't want to die again. But if she wants the wind to blow on both sides, she can't do it, not to mention that she is now a shareholder of Xuanyuan Building, and she is closely related to it, so it is impossible to help others snipe it.
"What kind of scent is this?" Li Yuanwai smelled the smell floating in the air, and the strange fragrance jumped straight to his nostrils, and his mouth and tongue were full of relish
"Is this aroma coming from your recipe?" Li Yuanwai stood up and asked.
Without waiting for Luozhi to reply, he followed the smell to the stove room, lifted the wooden lid on the iron pot, and a pot of pork water marinated with red oil and red sauce was presented in front of him, and the aroma was even stronger when he heard it closely.
"I want this recipe!" Li Yuanwai looked at Luozhi with bright eyes.
Luo Zhi was speechless, this person was a little anxious, and besides, the master's house was in front of him, what did he mean by running around?
"Boss Li, why did you have time to return to Ji'an Town today and go to this rural farmhouse?" A hearty voice came.
Everyone followed the shouting and forgot about it, and Shopkeeper Yao was walking in in a hurry.
"Yao Hetian, aren't you here too?" Li Yuanwai's face changed slightly. He is too familiar with Shopkeeper Yao, this person is not simple.
"Hehe, this little friend is my Yao's old friend, and it's not unusual for me to come over. Only Boss Li bent down and came here, I don't know what it is? Shopkeeper Yao looked at Li Yuanwai with a smile.
Luo Zhi took advantage of the war between the two to take a wooden lid to cover the braised pork, this spice recipe is simple, she is afraid that the well-informed Li Yuan will take a look
"Don't stand in the smoky stove, but sit down and talk. Luozhi, hurry up and serve the sugar water," the old man instructed Luozhi while guiding the guests to the hall. He just saw his granddaughter's small movements in the corner of his eye, and it was right to take people away.
Shopkeeper Yao took the lead and walked out, Li Yuan looked out at the iron pot and found that it was covered, and he also walked out.
"Yao Hetian, it is impossible for all the dishes in the world to be controlled by your Xuanyuan Building, this little girl can sell you the recipe or sell it to me, we will have the highest price today," Li Yuanwai saw Yao's shopkeeper and was an eyesore, this person always smiled on his fat face, but secretly had a bad stomach.
Shopkeeper Yao didn't like Li Yuanwai either, a small outsider actually dared to grab business with the Lin Mansion to occupy the territory, he was bold and reckless, and he didn't give him some color to take a look, and he thought that the people in the Lin Mansion were easy to bully.
"Boss Li doesn't know, it's not that our Xuanyuan Building is domineering, it's actually that this little girl has a deep fate with us, I advise Boss Li, don't dig into the corner of the wall casually, otherwise the wall will fall and crush yourself to death I don't know what's going on?" Shopkeeper Yao took a sip of the sugar water, Xiaoyou is generous, this sugar water is sweet to the heart.
"You threaten me?" Li Yuanwai stood up and said angrily.
"How dare Yao! Boss Li, to tell you the truth, she is our young master-......" The last few words of Shopkeeper Yao were inaudible, and Luozhi stretched out his ears and didn't hear what Shopkeeper Yao said clearly.
"Is that true?" Li Yuanwai glanced at Luozhi suspiciously, this little girl is good-looking, but she doesn't know how to say this little body.
"Seriously." Shopkeeper Yao affirmed.
"There are many disturbances today, please have a lot of Haihan, there will be a period later, and I will leave," Li Yuanwai stood up and walked out, the truth of the news had to wait until he returned to the town to inquire clearly before deciding on the next move.
