Chapter 26: Opening a Restaurant

After getting Wu Ming's name, Hu Dabai (Su Daji) thought about it for a while and said to Wu Ming: "Official, now that you have no shortage of men, you can't let them all be trapped in this mountain and throw stones, you should choose some smart ones to go out and do business." ”

Wu Ming said: "I don't plan to let these dwarves and goblins integrate into this world for the time being, they are my hole cards, and they can't be easily exposed, as for those rough men who smash stones, many of them are guilty of crimes, and I let them smash stones here is a punishment for them." ”

Hu Dabai said: "Officials, what about the idlers who help, and the families of those prisoners, aren't they all usable, you let them be trapped in the mountains to grow food is purely a waste, food can be planted by dwarves and goblins, you give them to me, I will help you train for a few days." ”

Wu Ming said: "Oh, I don't know what Dabai thinks, let's hear it." ”

Hu Dabai said: "Our fox clan is naturally intelligent, I can let the masters who have turned into people in the clan lead these idle women to open chain restaurants in the Great Song Dynasty." With the intelligence of our fox clan and the strength of the shape-shifting master, no matter where the restaurant opens, it will not suffer. ”

Hu Dabai continued: "As for the variety of restaurants, I think we should take the high-end route, and I can restore the dishes I ate in the palace back then." It's just that the big officials, all the transformation masters of our fox clan have been sent out to open a restaurant, and the young foxes in the clan have to ask the big officials to shelter one or two. ”

Wu Ming saw that Hu Dabai was truly attached to him, so he said: "This is natural, after you go back, move the entire Nine-Tailed Fox Clan and place them here in the dwarf and goblin camp, I think there is no safer place in the world than here." ”

After hearing Wu Ming's words, Hu Dabai said with a sad face: "Big official, the slave family has lost the ability to fly, and I won't see the big official for more than half a year, and the slave family is a little reluctant to see the big official." ”

After hearing this, Wu Ming laughed and said, "What's so difficult about this, how many clansmen do you have in the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan?" Hu Dabai said: "There are more than 8,000 shape-shifting masters plus young foxes who have not shape-shifted. ”

After listening to Hu Dabai's words, Wu Ming called the captain of the Qinglong Guard over and instructed him: "Lead your guards, follow the big white girl to their clan land, and move all of them there for me." The captain of the Qinglong Guard took the order and left, Hu Dabai hesitated to look at the goblins who walked away, and asked, "Great official?" ”

Wu Ming said: "Don't ask, you'll know in a while." In less than five minutes, Hu Dabai only felt that the sky in the distance suddenly darkened, she looked up and looked there, and opened her mouth wide in surprise, only to see that the sky in the distance was full of dense flying machines, flying in their direction.

After all, Hu Dabai had also experienced the battle of the gods, and after watching those flying machines flying in his direction, he said: "I didn't expect that the big officials still have so many immortal flying magic weapons. ”

Wu Ming explained: "Don't underestimate any race, these are not flying magic weapons, they are scientific and technological products developed by the goblin clan, goblin flying machines. ”

After settling down the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, Wu Ming arranged for his idlers and the families of prisoners to prepare for the opening of the restaurant. Opening a restaurant always requires a run, and chefs are also indispensable. Wu Ming selected some smart and clever idlers to let them be responsible for running the hall to report the names of dishes, and selected some sturdy women to let the system implant them with various home-cooked dishes in later generations.

And Wu Ming, the transformation master of the fox clan, chose the old one to act as the shopkeeper, and the young and beautiful one to act as the door greeting. After training everyone, Wu Ming planned to test the water in Yanggu County first, the address of the restaurant was Wu Dalang's original house, after renovation, Wu Ming's restaurant opened for business on a good day.

As for the business philosophy Wu Ming and Hu Dabai are different, Wu Ming thinks: the people take food as the sky, although the current Great Song Dynasty is weak, but Wu Ming believes that with his own intervention, the Great Song Dynasty will become strong sooner or later. The dishes don't have to be too high-end, and the dishes of later generations are all peerless delicacy of this era.

The restaurant is positioned as a high, medium and low grade, fully considering the consumption power of all classes of the current Great Song Dynasty. The lowest-end ones only need a few copper coins to eat well, and the highest-end ones are rich and noble, and they will feel a little distressed when they eat a meal.

The overall shape of the restaurant is also based on the aesthetics of the Song Dynasty, and the whole restaurant is carved with eaves reflecting the sun, and the painting is flying clouds. The blue curtain is low and the window is low, and the green curtain is high on the door. The building is divided into four floors, the first floor is an open hall filled with tables of eight immortals, and the westernmost counter is a counter for storing drinks and money.

The second floor is much more elegant, with more spacing between each table and beautiful screens between the spacing. The screen is painted with landscapes, plants and trees, birds, beasts, insects and fish. This allows some medium-sized families with their families to have some space for private activities.

The third floor is a beautifully decorated private room. There is only one private room on the fourth floor, which is luxuriously decorated, and it is easily not open to the public, Wu Ming said that it is a piece of private land, and Wu Ming regards it as a place for his own people to gather in his spare time, of course, if he is willing to spend money, it is not impossible to spend in it.

In the first three days of opening, Wu Ming sent people all over the streets and alleys to distribute leaflets, in view of the Song Dynasty literacy was not much, Wu Ming also specially hired some poor scholars in the prosperous area to interpret the contents of the leaflets:

"Wu Dalang Restaurant, three days before the opening of the free tasting, three days after the end of the tasting, in order to avoid stampedes and mixed eating and drinking, each person can only try one dish per day, if you want to try the food please queue up at the queuing place set up at the entrance of the store, the daily tasting time from 9 am to 5 pm, outdated do not wait, first come first served."

At the beginning, Hu Dabai was a little strange about Wu Ming's decision, if those people just tried it and stopped entering the store to consume after eating, wouldn't Wu Ming lose money for three days in vain?

After listening to Hu Dabai's doubts, Wu Ming didn't explain, but just asked the system to make four plates of ordinary home-cooked dishes: mapo tofu, sour and hot shredded potatoes, sweet and sour tenderloin, and fried pork from the farmhouse.

Seeing that Hu Dabai didn't have a ladylike image at all, holding a plate and eating, Wu Ming couldn't help but smile. waited until Hu Dabai finished eating, looking at Hu Dabai's unfinished face, holding the plate and sticking out his tongue to lick the plate over and lick it, Wu Ming quipped: "You don't need to lick it, if you lick it again, you don't need to wash the plate." ”

Hu Dabai looked embarrassed after listening to Wu Ming's words, put down the plate, jumped to Wu Ming's side, beat Wu Ming's chest with a small fist and said, "I don't blame you, make some such delicious dishes, let people lose face." ”

Wu Ming grabbed Hu Dabai's hand, looked down at Hu Dabai and said: "Don't make trouble, how about these dishes, these are just ordinary home-cooked dishes, do you think that those people can endure the temptation of food after trying my Wu Dalang's dishes and not consume them?" ”

Hu Dabai looked at Wu Ming, who was holding his hand, his heart throbbed, and he leaned into Wu Ming's arms and said, "Daguan, you are so powerful, such delicious dishes can be made." ”

Wu Ming was just about to make a move, and the system's voice penetrated Wu Ming's ears: "I said Wu Ming, I said okay, I lent you the drinks and raw materials for the dishes in the early stage of opening the restaurant, and after your subordinates use the seeds I gave you to grow the finished products, you have to pay me back double." ”

Wu Ming was in no mood after this interruption of the system, he just put his arm around Hu Dabai's waist and didn't make any other movements, but in his heart he scolded the system: "You miser, miser, aren't you just not ready in the early stage, ask you for a little vegetables and condiments that are not available in this era, as for you, wait for my subordinates to plant them and return them to you as soon as possible, double!" ”
