In the palace, Li Shimin and his eldest grandson jumped over the wall with a Buddha and tasted it. Li Shimin guessed early on that there would definitely be something delicious, and he also guessed that Cai Cong would definitely not pay tribute, so he sent someone to keep an eye on the kitchen, and when it was ready, he directly packed it back, and by the way, he scolded him for having no conscience on behalf of the eldest grandson, and he didn't know how to honor his elders.

When Cai Cong came out after changing his clothes, he found that it was a mess. All the guests were gone. "What's going on? People pinch? ”

"I don't know, all of a sudden I ran away with a pint of incense and ran away." Meng Baolai's neck turned around a little stiffly, he can be regarded as having seen the world, and he has also beaten Li Jiyan before. But this kind of scene has never happened, the host's family worked hard, and everyone didn't see each other, so you ran away.

"You scoundrels, just eat, and even take away the jar. Hahaha...... Laughed at me. Cai Cong stood in the hall and laughed extremely arrogant, the gaffes of these big men are the best publicity, Taibai Lou will be popular in Chang'an from today onwards.

The next day, these bigwigs all sent butlers to send thanks, and at the same time expressed their apologies for the rude banquet last night. Cai Cong accepted the gift with a smile and sent the person away in a few words.

The next day, he feasted an old man who was over seventy years old and had a good reputation. For example, the old man Tong of Anyefang has helped the poor for many years, regardless of losses. Feng'anfang's good life is not good at all, her husband and son all died in the famine, but she served her father-in-law and mother-in-law for a hundred years, and helped take care of the stupid daughter of the uncle's family who also died in the famine, and she took care of it for thirty years. She is also the only person who can bring people to the banquet, that is, she has opened the back door, and you can do her like this if you are not convinced.

On the third day, the banquet was attended by those who were famous for their filial piety, all of whom were excellent children, who sat on their seats and did not dare to move, and when the dishes came, they put them in their own bowls, but they didn't eat, and they were worried about the elders, so they were willing to eat? In the end, they had no choice but to take it home and give it to their parents to taste.

Three big dramas in three days, the delicacies of Taibai Building have made the whole Chang'an salivate, and when the fourth day is bright, there is a long queue outside the four Taibai Buildings, and fools know that they are late and have no food today. When someone arrived, he saw the crowd at the end of the alley and slapped himself in frustration.

"Ladies and gentlemen, a table can seat ten people, and a hundred tables on the first floor can accommodate a thousand people at a time. There are 30 tables on the second floor, and the VIP room on the second floor, and you need at least 20 taels for each consumption. Now that the door opens, please enter in an orderly manner. ”

Xiao Er has already been trained, otherwise how could these people be allowed to line up obediently? The crowd rushed in, and when it was full, Xiao Er pulled up the bar to prevent the people behind from entering.

The two floors were filled in an instant, and Xiao Er's casual announcement of the name of the dish made these diners feel fresh, but soon there was a problem. After reporting dozens of dishes, none of them were dishes in the tasting banquet, and everyone didn't agree, especially the fragrance that was spread in the sky and not in the earth.

For a while, the crowd was excited, slapping the table, and shouting insults, and the scene almost got out of control. The shopkeepers of the four restaurants who lost were all independent figures, such as Zhang Wen's roar, like a tiger roaring in the mountains and forests, and everyone who was shocked was silent.

At this time, he opened his mouth and said: "Forgive me, a few days ago, the banquet was a hundred and eight dishes, my master said, this is a prosperous dish, and now I am in the Tang Dynasty, and this prosperous dish will not be available. The Turks are not far away, if they can't set foot on the Turks, the snow is shameful to me, this peerless fragrance, who can eat it? ”

Zhang Wen used to be a captain, and he had to incite his teammates on the battlefield, and it was not difficult to incite these diners here, everyone was so excited that they couldn't speak, and the people at the same table were proud to meet him to break through the Turks and come here to taste the fragrance of the prosperous world.

At noon, Li Shimin and his family came and watched the warm scene below on the third floor. Zhang Wen has to say sensational words every time, otherwise the new diners will keep asking the Buddha to jump over the wall.

Hearing Zhang Wen's impassioned declaration, Li Shimin slapped Cai Cong on the back of the head. "You kid can't help but be sensational, I'm a little excited."

"Hehe......" Cai Cong covered his head and smiled embarrassedly, at this time he didn't dare to say that he was selling his feelings, otherwise he would be beaten to death by Li Shimin.

"How much money can you make today?" Empress Eldest Sun asked casually, but the expectation in her eyes betrayed her. There is no way that the treasury is poor, the inner government is even poorer, and if there is no money, the eldest grandson wants to sell jewelry.

"Hehe, it shouldn't be less than 20,000 taels of silver!" Cai Cong said with a smile.

The eldest grandson's eyes opened all of a sudden, and he looked at Cai Cong murderously, and he praised thousands of pieces of money after his hard work, and all of them were donated when the Turks attacked, and you now open a restaurant to earn 20,000 taels a day. What is the savings before the book? What is it if you don't dare to eat or drink?

"Niangniang, you see, the second floor is the second generation of officials and the rich, the second floor consumes at least twenty taels, but this group of people can't consume so little, it's normal to spend sixty or seventy taels on a table, thirty tables is a few thousand taels, people come and go in a day, twenty thousand taels are there, but this is what everyone feels fresh today, and when this momentum passes, business will slowly fall."

"Are you saying that 20,000 taels are from the East Market, and it has nothing to do with the other three restaurants?" The eldest grandson gasped, and even Li Shimin's eyes were a little red, and the two of them stared at Cai Cong deadly, if they dared to say that there was, they might be beaten to death.

"It must be okay, Your Majesty, you were in Longyou when you were young, if there is such a restaurant, spend a few dozen taels, do you think it can be worth it?"

"Value, a hundred taels are worth it." Li Shimin said affirmatively.

Cai Cong continued: "People are of the same mind, these rich people think the same way today, so the business will explode, and after a few days, it will be a normal operation, and it would be good to have a few thousand taels a day." ”

Li Er and his wife nodded, and slowly regained their composure, they were really stimulated just now, forgetting that Chang'an dignitaries and rich families gathered, and suddenly they all came to eat, and it was normal for tens of thousands of taels to come.

"No wonder you dare to say that you want to be the god of wealth of Datang, it's not easy for this group of people to get some money in their hands, you can actually do it. Not bad! Li Shimin said admiringly.

Cai Cong rolled his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "You are wrong, the God of Wealth of the Tang Dynasty is the queen's mother, and my family only accounts for 30%. And it seems to me that this group of people have written on their foreheads that people are stupid and come quickly, and it is not difficult to make their money at all. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, seventy percent of the Taibai Mansion is the Huang family, and it has nothing to do with the palace, how can the mother of the palace compete with the people in the world?" The eldest grandson immediately retorted with righteous words, if the old lady recognizes it, how will she be famous in the history books in the future?

Cai Cong was speechless, these two people didn't treat him as an outsider at all, they were simply skinless and faceless. Li Shimin suddenly said with a straight face: "The reward for you has come down, and after discussing with the ministers, I decided to make you Chang'anbo, with 200 households in the real food estate." Tomorrow you have to go to the morning court, and tonight you will rest early, but I have heard that you are very sleepy! ”

"The kid didn't dare to take the order." Cai Cong knelt down directly as he spoke, and immediately expressed his intention to resist. Just kidding, Li Jing has played for your Li family for more than ten years, and only then did he mix up with the national prince, and there were 400 households in the real food town, so I had a lot of credit, and I gave me 200 households, I was ashamed of it, and I didn't dare to ask for it.

"This is a decision between me and the princes, and you must not disobey the decree. Your mother is an example for women in the world, and you are an example for capable people in the world. Li Shimin said domineeringly, he is ambitious and ambitious in the whole world, otherwise he can't bear Wei Zheng's criticism of himself for more than ten years, otherwise he can't surrender to all countries.

"Alright! Then I'll go to bed early tonight, or let's discuss it again, and a hundred households will be fine. The rest is fine. "Cai Cong still doesn't give up, and the gun shoots the first bird! Li Shimin's move directly forced Cai Cong to the opposite side of all the nobles. Lao Tzu was invincible in a hundred battles, how many territories he had conquered, and he also blocked the knife for the emperor, so he mixed up with the marquis, and ate two hundred households, you are good, directly two hundred households, how can I be embarrassed?

"Get out! I've never seen such a bad guy as you do. Li Shimin's beard trembled, after ascending the throne and rewarding a large number of ministers from the dragon, he didn't want to give the title easily, this kid in front of him really doesn't know the hearts of good people!

"Hey...... Boy, go to the kitchen and see, don't make any trouble. ”

"Give me back, don't you understand the gentleman? I'm about to be an earl's man, and what kind of system do you run into the kitchen all day long? Li Shimin shouted angrily, with this kid, he felt that sooner or later he would be angry and want to kill.

"Your Majesty, this is not right, the so-called gentleman Yuan Ding can't bear to see ...... killing," Cai Cong said, Li Shimin copied him up and beat him on the ass.
