Chapter 13 The restaurant has its own characteristics

As soon as Wang Fengdong and Zhang Wei returned to the barracks, their subordinates stepped forward and said to Wang Fengdong: "General, the eldest son of Linghu sent someone to invite you to dine at the 'Orchid Wine Shop' in the evening, this is an invitation. After that, his subordinates handed Ling Huzhu's invitation to Wang Fengdong.

Wang Fengdong took the invitation, looked at it and said to Zhang Wei: "It seems that you can't enjoy it after hitting so many prey." You pack up and come with me into the city later. ”

I?

Zhang Wei looked at Wang Fengdong and said, "This banquet is a private gathering of the general, is it appropriate for one of my subordinates to go with me?" ”

"What's wrong with this, although it is an invitation from the eldest son of Linghu, it may not be the two of us partying, there must be other people among them. If I tell you to go, you'll go, nothing. Wang Fengdong said proudly.

Zhang Wei could feel that although this general Zuo Xiaowei spoke domineeringly, he was indeed sincere to himself, "Since this is the case, then I will clean up." ”

The two changed into casual clothes, got into a carriage and entered Chang'an, and came to the "Orchid Wine Shop" in the Tang West Market before nightfall.

Zhang Wei is familiar with this wine shop, when he was wandering in Chang'an, he was lying outside this wine shop many times.

Although he has been lying outside the door many times, Zhang Wei has never gone in to enjoy the food and wine inside. You know, he was a pure beggar at the beginning, he could sleep outside someone's wine shop, and the security guard didn't beat you, and if you wanted to go in to eat, there was no door.

Now Zhang Wei was finally able to justifiably walk into the "Orchid Wine Shop" in his dream, and his joy was beyond words.

The "Orchid Restaurant" during the day is quiet and peaceful, but as soon as it comes to night, it immediately shows her very active side.

As soon as he walked in the door, Zhang Wei immediately felt the enthusiasm and heroism from a foreign land. The bearded merchant of the Western Regions laughed loudly with wine in his hand; Women wearing Western Regions national costumes shuttled through the crowd, and from time to time someone would slap the buttocks of revealing exotic women. Then, everyone burst into hearty laughter.

This seemingly laughing, but very integrated scene, Zhang Wei finally believed that this "orchid restaurant" that flourished in the Tang Dynasty was not in vain.

The private room had already been decided, and when Wang Fengdong walked into the private room with Zhang Wei, the eldest son of Ling Hu and his entourage were already waiting here.

"General Wang, I'm looking forward to you." Seeing Wang Fengdong come in, the white and chubby Ling Hulu got up and stepped forward with a smile on his face, and said with a smile.

"Oh--, Linghu eldest son, Wang is late and rude." Wang Fengdong said with a smile.

"There, there, I just came, I just sat down." Ling Huxuan looked at Zhang Wei and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"This is my personal soldier Zhang Wei." Then Wang Fengdong said to Zhang Wei: "This is the eldest son of Linghu Hu of my Tang Dynasty Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

The Tang Prime Minister's Mansion?

In this way, this eldest son is the son of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Wei couldn't help but glance at Ling Fox Gang more, and saw that this Ling Fox Boy was chubby, white-faced, thick-bearded, and had a polite smile on his face.

"The villain Zhang Wei visits the eldest son." Zhang Wei arched his hand.

"Zhang Gongzi is a talent, extraordinary, and his future is limitless!" Ling Hu Zhan said with a smile, and then Ling Hu Zhu pointed to a forty-year-old person behind him and introduced: "This is Ling Hu Zhan, the housekeeper of my house, you know each other." I'm going to come and go back and forth a lot! ”

After meeting, Ling Huxuan pointed to the position on the left and said to Wang Fengdong, "General Wang, please take a seat." ”

After Wang Fengdong sat down on the upper left, Zhang Wei sat down on his bottom; Ling Hu Zhan and Ling Hu Zhan sat down in turn at the head of the right.

After everyone was seated, the wine and meat began to be served.

Zhang Wei can see that the food of the Tang Dynasty is quite rich, not only vegetables such as okra and alfalfa, snacks such as flax cakes and pancakes, but also barbecue meat that he loves to put down.

There are also a lot of wine and drinks, including liquor, wine, and a very dark drink, Zhang Wei does not know its name.

"General Wang, Zhang Gongzi, please--" After the wine and food came up, Ling Hu raised his glass to Wang Fengdong and Zhang Weidao.

Zhang Wei picked up the liquor and smelled it, well---, fragrant, long charm, good wine. Then Zhang Wei took a sip of the liquor, it was so fragrant, sweet and refreshing, and had a long aftertaste.

It seems that this original liquor is much better than today's blended liquor.

Blending liquor is also technical, and businessmen who blend it with edible alcohol still have some conscience, and the liquor can at least be drunk. If you encounter a few people who are particularly bold and mix them with industrial alcohol, the problem will be complicated, and if you mix alcohol with water, you can drink it if the amount is small; In case you meet a sincere person, mix it with water in alcohol, the amount is too large, and it will kill people.

Today, Zhang Wei can drink this real grain wine, which should be the best of the best, and the best of the wine.

Looking at Zhang Wei's intoxicated appearance, Ling Huxuan asked, "Has Zhang Gongzi been to the orchid restaurant before?" ”

Zhang Wei shook his head and said, "Back to the eldest son, Zhang is the first time to come here." ”

"Oh--, Zhang Gongzi is here for the first time!" As soon as he heard that Zhang Wei was the first time to come to the "Orchid Wine Shop", Ling Huxuan said more, and said to Zhang Wei: "I'll tell you! This orchid wine shop is different from other wine shops in our Datang Dynasty, and it has four characteristics in summary. ”

Old players, absolute old players, not only often come here to have fun, but also good at summarizing, and can even summarize in addition to the four characteristics.

"Oh? I don't know which of the four characteristics are? Zhang Wei was also interested when he heard this, and asked curiously.

Zhang Wei thought to himself, don't look at me when I was in school, I couldn't read well, but I wasn't bad at all in terms of fun, especially in these bars and singing and dancing places, which were definitely proficient in everything.

Everyone has a good side of being a teacher, seeing Zhang Wei so "studious", the interest of the fox came up, and said to Zhang Wei: "This is the first is the beauty of this wine shop, you have also seen that these beauties are all from the Western Regions, all of them are graceful and amorous, what do you say?" ”

"Well---, that's it, what the eldest son said is not bad, all of them are the best in the world." Zhang Wei praised.

Where there is praise, there is motivation.

Hearing Zhang Wei's praise, Ling Hu became more interested in speaking, "In addition to beautiful women, the second feature of this orchid restaurant is fine wine, Zhang Gongzi looks at the black drink on your table, do you know what it is made of?" ”

Zhang Wei shook his head, thinking that he had only been in Datang for a few days, and there were still a lot of things to know, how could he know about this thing?

Ling Hulu smiled and said, "It's reasonable that Gongzi Zhang doesn't know, I'll tell you that this wine is called 'Sanle Pulp'." Su He recorded in "Youyang Miscellaneous" that 'Sanle Pulp' was made from coconut water. Coconut water, you know, right? ”

Coconut water wine?

When the Tang Dynasty was in the Tang Dynasty, they all used coconut water to make wine? Oh my God, what an eye-opener.

Zhang Wei knows the coconut water, and has drunk it, it is bitter and astringent, and there is a rancid taste, the people of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty can use this to make wine, is it difficult to drink? Zhang Wei didn't know.

"Zhang Gongzi tasted it, it tasted good." Ling Hu said with a smile.

Zhang Wei picked up the wine glass and tasted the coconut wine called "Sanle Pulp", well--, bitter and astringent, with a hint of sweetness, "Not bad, not bad, really good." Zhang Wei praised.

The beauties and wine are all available, Zhang Wei doesn't know what other characteristics this "orchid wine shop" can have.
