When Li Bao and Hu Sanbao returned to the Jinluan Palace, the sky was a little gray, the winter drums on Chengtian Street sounded again, and the time to close the palace gate came. poured tea and water for Li Bao, and was very busy.

Liang Damiang and Li Baohu Sanbao both sat in the outer hall to talk, in the late Tang Dynasty, tables, chairs and benches had been invented, but formal occasions were still mostly kneeling. But Li Bao couldn't get used to this way of kneeling and destroying his legs, and strongly advocated sitting on the bench, so Li Bao had the most round-legged bent stools in the hall.

Ling'er came in with tea and served it to Li Bao, Liang Damiang and Hu Sanbao in turn. Then he sat down at the table, and the four of them gathered around a long table and began to talk.

"Lang Jun went to the pastoral office today to ask for milk, how is the matter going, is that bureau embarrassed you?"

"Today's matter is thanks to Hu San'er, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid today's matter wouldn't be so easy to do."

"Lang Jun don't want to praise me, I just took advantage of Lang Jun's tiger power and had the courage to say those words, and when I said it, my palms were sweaty. I'm still a little nervous about my legs now. ”

"Oh, it seems that Lang Jun showed his might, and Hu San'er bravely protected the lord. San'er, my aunt really underestimates you on weekdays, but I didn't expect you to be quite bold at a young age! ”

When Hu Sanbao saw that everyone praised him, Deng Shimei's heart was full of joy, and he didn't know where to put his hand. He just smirked. Ling'er couldn't bear it the most, took Li Bao's hand, shook it and begged Li Baoyang: "Lang Jun quickly tell the slave about today's matter, he is about to die of the slave." ”

Li Bao looked at Ling'er's delicate appearance, couldn't resist it, and surrendered: "Okay, don't shake it, I said it's not okay." So Li Bao said about the matter reported in the Pastoral Office, and when he said that he angrily kicked the black-faced yellow door, Ling'er spat out, "Well kicked, this bastard thing, dare to be unreasonable to Lang Jun." Lang Jun should have kicked him a few more times, so that this dog can have a long memory. Li Bao continued to speak without a pause. After speaking, Aunt Liang and Ling'er both gave Hu Sanbao a thumbs up.

Hu Sanbao was even happier that he didn't know that the world was in the north and south, but he just touched his head vigorously. Li Bao then said to Hu Sanbao: "Today in the Pastoral Office, Hu San'er's actions are indeed remarkable, in order to commend you for your contribution to protecting me, I want to reward you with consistent money." ”

"The slave and maid thank Langjun for the reward, it is the blessing of the slave and maid to be able to serve Langjun, the slave and the maid are willing to die for Langjun, even if they die, the slave and maid are willing to become cattle and horses and be driven by Langjun." It is normal for Hu Sanbao to be excited, a small yellow door like him, the monthly routine money is only one or twenty yuan, Li Bao rewarded him with the usual money at once, which is worth several years of regular money, how can he not be excited.

"Okay, put away your sycophants and do things for me, I won't treat you badly." Okay, you and Ling'er go to the kitchen to prepare dinner, I have something to discuss with my aunt. Ling'er and Hu Sanbao withdrew as they said.

Li Bao opened his mouth and said, "What does my aunt think of the dishes I made today?" Aunt Liang took a sip of tea and praised: "These dishes are really delicious, how can Liulang make such delicious dishes?" Li Bao smiled: "These are all things I see in the book." ”

As soon as Aunt Liang heard this answer, she knew that Li Bao was perfunctory to her, if there were recipes in the book, wouldn't all the people in the world become chefs? But Li Bao has given them too many surprises in the past ten years, and she is also puzzled by this, after all, Li Bao grew up under the watchful eyes of Liang Hongmei, and Li Bao's difference can only be seen as being born with Huigen.

Coupled with the vision of Li Bao when he was born, in Liang Hongmei's heart, this concept was deeply rooted. So Li Bao said that it was seen in the book, and she accepted it for the time being.

"I know that the nursing mother's family is quite good outside the palace, but there is still a gap between the rich family, and I have an idea, I plan to open a restaurant outside the palace. I don't know if the eldest lady is willing to participate in the shares? As soon as Liang Hongmei heard that Li Bao wanted to pull her to make money together, and there was still something unwilling, she immediately nodded and agreed. The dishes I ate today are very different from the food I eat on weekdays.

There are many dignitaries and nobles in Chang'an City, and the folk have a very heavy atmosphere of eating, drinking, and enjoying. The cook of the prime minister Li Deyu's family made a cup of soup and spent 30 yuan. This shows how broad the market for opening restaurants is. Plus Li Bao's recipes to make delicious dishes. It's definitely a sure-fire deal.

Li Bao continued, "Use these dishes of mine to open a restaurant, of course, I have a lot of new dishes, I will not just these few dishes, I will give you some new dishes regularly." Of course, there must be a little capital to open a restaurant, I have saved all the monthly money over the years, and there are more than 200 yuan, these money plus my recipes are counted as 60% of the dry shares, and the nursing mother's husband's family invests another 100 yuan as the capital accounts for 30% of the shares, how about it? ”

Liang Hongmei pondered for a while, for the principal of three hundred guan, her husband's family can still take it out, and immediately replied: "Lang Jun's recipe is worth a thousand gold, and he has to come up with the capital, this is unacceptable, the principal of three hundred guan is from a certain husband's family, Lang Jun only needs to come out with the recipe, as for the shares Lang Jun sixty percent, a certain husband's family thirty percent, how to deal with the remaining one percent?" ”

"I plan to divide the remaining ten percent of the dry shares, Ling'er and Hu San'er have followed me for many years, and these ten shares give each of them three shares, which are counted as their dividends, and the remaining four shares are used as dividends for the restaurant, which are distributed to the shopkeeper and the guys in the store, and how to divide them until the restaurant opens."

"And our restaurant hasn't opened yet, don't tell them about the shares." As soon as Liang Hongmei heard Li Bao's plan, she knew that Li Bao was a loving and righteous master, and Ling'er and Hu Sanbao really didn't know if it was a blessing for several generations to meet a master like Li Bao.

Liang Damiang and Li Bao argued about the principal for a while, but finally failed to fight Li Bao, or according to the original plan, Li Bao and Liang Hongmei partnered to invest 300 yuan to open a restaurant. Li Bao provides recipes and chef training, and the restaurant is all operated by the Zhao family of Liang Da Niang's family, Li Bao's trust in Liang Da Niang's family is also a temptation, if they can pass the test of this restaurant, there will be more business to them in the future, after all, they have too many things to "invent and create" as a traverser, and they don't have to worry about copyright issues.

After the matter of the shares was negotiated, Liang Hongmei calculated that it was not easy for the restaurant to open, and it was not easy to lease a place, recruit guys, purchase goods, and select ingredients, and there were many tedious things to handle. Li Bao waved his hand, why bother so much, just buy one directly, so that the store will be in charge of the source of customers, and the ingredients will be solved.

When Liang Hongmei heard this, she came to her senses, clapped her hands and said, "Such a simple truth, why didn't I think of it?" However, if Lang Jun wants to buy a better restaurant, 300 guan is still too little, and now in Chang'an City, there are not a few big businessmen in the west and east markets, and what 300 guan can really buy is a small and medium-sized restaurant. ”

Li Bao thought about it, yes, he still saved up this little private money for ten years, since he can't buy a high-end restaurant, just get a medium first, and he can't find customers for his dishes.

Therefore, it is explained that the restaurant you choose to buy, the others can be settled, but the decoration and layout of the restaurant must be high-end and atmospheric, and the dishes you provide are all never before in Datang, and after the opening, you must be a high-end customer, so the taste of the hotel cannot be low. As for whether Liang Hongmei can understand the meaning of being tall, it is no longer within Li Bao's consideration.

Liang Hongmei nodded yes, and then asked, "What is the name of the restaurant?" Li Bao replied: "I thought of two names, you can help refer to them, one is 'Zhenyu Building', and the other is 'Qianjin Building'." Liang Hongmei thinks that the "Qianjin Building" is atmospheric, the "Zhen Yu Building" is too straightforward, and Li Bao also thinks that the Qianjin Building is heroic enough, so he decided on the name of the store "Qianjin Building".

Li Bao and Liang Hongmei discussed for a long time, and when the discussion was almost over, Ling'er came in to report that dinner was ready. Li Bao ordered the meal to be served, and the four masters and servants ate together. After dinner, Li Bao's master and servant set up the fragrant tea in the outer hall and started the daily routine "tea party", of course, this word also came from Li Bao's invention.

Most of the "tea parties" are Li Bao talking about, which is nothing more than telling some legendary stories, such as "The Legend of the White Lady", "Dream of Red Mansions", "The Legend of the West Chamber" and the like. Liang Hongmei and the other three people who listened were fascinated. Sometimes when Li Bao is happy, he will expand the scale of the "tea party", so that the palace people in the entire palace will come to listen to the story. Sometimes Li Bao was not interested in telling stories, and the master and servant would play leaf play or play backgammon. Sometimes, Li Bao will also get addicted to concerts and sing songs that they don't understand. But Li Bao doesn't care, just be happy. In short, there are many ways to pass the time.

Every night's entertainment lasts for about two hours, and then it's time to go back to washing up and going to bed, after all, you have to wake up early the next day. In this Tang Dynasty time and space, where there is no Internet and various entertainment methods, it is really not easy for Li Bao, a "night owl" in later generations, to re-get used to the life rules of sunset and sunrise. But time is really a good teacher, and subtly people have to succumb to its authority.

Li Bao finished telling the story today and planned to go back to the dormitory to rest, and suddenly found that his right foot was a little painful, remembering that after kicking the black-faced eunuch today, it is estimated that he injured his soft tissues and slept tomorrow. I suddenly felt that my workout was not enough, and I had to increase the amount. After thinking about it for a while, I decided to do some push-ups and sit-ups every night before bed.

For these two sports, the venue requirements are small, and there is no need to go outdoors, just indoors. And these two exercises are also the most direct for muscle training. So when I arrived at the dormitory, I did thirty push-ups on the couch. Tired arms were sore, and after a while, Ling'er brought a copper basin and green salt.

Ling'er saw Li Bao rubbing his arms on the couch. "Sizzle" inhale from time to time. Deng Shi became nervous, ran to Li Bao, and asked with concern: "Lang Jun, what's the matter, is your shoulder hurting, come, slave will rub it for you." ”

Li Bao saw that Ling'er was so concerned about himself, and his heart warmed, "It's nothing, I did the exercise just now, and I did it for the first time today, so my shoulders will be a little sore, and I will be fine in the future." Come on the couch and do sports with me. ”
