Chapter 49 The opening of the restaurant
Tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, and beans hung with fruit, and from a corner they looked like they were full of countless green-colored caterpillars, and he treated them as if he were taking care of his own children, and he took them three times a day, pulled out the weeds, and when there was a shortage of water, he carried a few buckets from the river, and watered them again at dusk.
"Master, this harvest won't be less, right?" A young man couldn't help but ask.
"Okay, this is our ration for this winter." The old king replied expectantly.
The young man nodded as if he had realized something.
One old and one young stared at the crops and didn't know what they were thinking.
"Okay, this plaque is to the right, yes, yes." In front of the small restaurant where Lin Qianxun's delicious food came again, Lin Qianxun was directing Kunnu to hang a plaque, Fu Changqing's calligraphy was really amazing, after their careful tracing, not to mention the three-dimensional hand, it was a little more elegant.
"Girl, where do you put this flower?" Cuicui held a pot of flowers and hurriedly poked her head out and asked.
"On the shelf on the wall, put each pot like this, and then remember to use the skewer to don't hit people at that time." Lin Qianxun took the time to glance from the inside, and found that everything was neatly arranged, in the room with bright and clean windows, the brand-new oiled tables were neatly placed, and the walls were all small and fresh colors, there were no lifeless messy colors, if you walked into her restaurant, it seemed to enter a fairy tale world.
The walls are full of people eating food, some are standing, some are squatting, and some are gathered together, she is imitating the layout of some modern restaurants, painting the image not to say, but also on the side of the note pasta stir-fried vegetables, more is braised vegetables, after all, it is for ordinary people, she only pays attention to one word, affordable.
After cleaning it up, everyone went into the house.
"The moment the sun rises tomorrow, we will set off firecrackers to open, and then, the fragrance of newly baked siu mai, steamed buns, tofu brains and other snacks will waft up on the street.
Kunnu you are tall and tall, just chop wood and boil water in the backyard, or help move something, Cuicui makes a first-hand pasta, in charge of the chef, Lan Ya and Qiaoya one is responsible for receiving diners, the other is responsible for making steamed buns, and I will also be responsible for a specific job, such as braised pork, or chopping vegetables, or the guests ask me to make something new, I will do it.
It's going to open tomorrow, so we'll have an early break tonight. When the restaurant is on the right track, she can take the time to look at the land, tinker with some farming tools, and it is best to raise some chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, and invent some small things by the way to help them get through the difficulties.
Listen to the girl. The four of them nodded in unison.
"Then go home, I'm tired these days, everyone have a good rest, and remember to wear uniform clothes tomorrow." Lin Qianxun stood up and stretched, she had to go to the back mountain to see if she could find something special.
Everyone dispersed in a hurry, and then closed the door, no one dared to make trouble again in the delicious food, because of Lin Qianxun's strong background, the patrol team on the street came back to help from time to time, so ordinary people will not take the initiative to provoke her, it is estimated that there will be a lot of visitors tomorrow, although it is not for them to visit, but it is generally good.
The leaflets in the hands of the children on the street were handed out one by one, and many of them were curious to look at the pictures and eat the food, showing surprise. "It's unheard of."
"Yes, this painting is also superb, look at this dish like the real thing." Guanshan is not a small pass, but the residents stationed here all the year round are strange, the skin colors are different, and the trade is also quite prosperous, so if you want to gain a foothold, you have to be fierce.
Lin Qianxun entered the barracks, took Da Hei through the uninhabited fields, and went straight to the back mountain.
In addition to the bracken in summer, and the mushrooms under the pine trees, there are more medicinal herbs and fruits, Lin Qianxun will definitely have a black eye in the mountains, and he doesn't know anything, but since he has a system, like a tiger with wings, where she has passed, it is a bit too much to use an inch of grass to grow, but it is essential for geese to pluck their feathers.
"Big black, rabbit." Lin Qianxun watched a fat rabbit fly past in front of him, and hurriedly barked at the big black who was grazing on the side.
Da Hei chased after him like a fly, thinking that he would bite, but who knew that Da Hei actually came with a rabbit that was not injured, although Lin Qianxun was puzzled, he still figured out what it meant.
"Pregnant rabbits, take them home and keep them." She looked at it, then withdrew a teng, and after wrapping it around the rabbit's hind legs, she tied it carefully, and placed it carefully in the basket.
"Go on, catch a rabbit when you see it." Lin Qianxun patted Da Hei's head and expressed his satisfaction.
A person and a dog shuttled through the forest, and the secret guards who guarded it had already been withdrawn, the purpose was to improve their skills, how true it was, Lin Qianxun didn't know.
Two hours of harvest is a lot, two female rabbits, four male rabbits, and a lot of miscellaneous things, a basket can't fit, the big black mouth is still holding the wild boar that is just about to provoke the big black, as for Lin Qianxun's luck, he saved the tanuki all the time, probably just full-term, and his mother was lost, she looked pitiful and took it home.
Passing by the creek of the barracks, I suddenly thought of fish and shrimp, and I didn't know if I could find some yellow eels.
"Xun'er." At this moment, Leng Chopping Wind, who had just finished training, came out of nowhere, and when he saw Lin Qianxun who was poking his head out of the stream looking for something, he couldn't help but call.
"Ah Feng, are you done training?" Lin Qianxun looked for a voice, only to see that his face was smeared with black and green, and none of his clothes were clean, and the soil and green plants were dirty and ugly.
"Well, what's for dinner?" Seeing Lin Qianxun alone, Leng Qifeng asked with some curiosity.
"Let's eat some fish, I think it looks like river shrimp, there are a lot of snails, make you a powder to eat." Da Hei had just hunted a wild boar, and it was estimated that he had already been intercepted by the old king. Lin Qianxun said as he looked at the water.
Suddenly saw the big fish inside, although he knew the method of fishing, the old king did not make fish many times, one came to trouble, and the other was afraid that those soldiers would be stuck eating fish, unless it was made into fish balls, but hundreds of thousands of soldiers in a military camp had to get up in the morning and be busy until everyone rested at night just to eat every day, so there was no time.
"Okay." Leng Chofeng sat on the ground on the side with a tired ass, and then watched Lin Qianxun catch fish, her speed was very fast, jumping two, three, and unconsciously heard that Lin Qianxun caught a black spot, he was sleepy and couldn't open his eyes, and finally how to return to Lin Mansion, and how to take a bath I don't know.
"My cousin-in-law's cooking skills are better than before, and tomorrow when the restaurant opens, we will all go to the party." Fu Changqing looked at the thin vermicelli in the innocent fish soup, the taste was fresh, and he couldn't help but move his chopsticks.
"It's okay, come on, and go busy after breakfast." Lin Qianxun removed the fish bones for Leng Chopfeng, put a lot of pork with fat removed, and then handed it over, and said with a smile
Leng Chofeng was hungry, he only knew how to eat blindly, and then he didn't have the slightest desire to speak.
"Okay, then you're going to open a restaurant from tomorrow, so you have to get up early in the morning, right?" Fu Changqing seems to be particularly fond of talking lately, so he didn't take the time to ask.
"Well, pack up the general materials that night, and wait for the next day to wrap it directly, we made a simple oven, I think the steamed one is tired of eating, so I change the roast, and when I bake enough, I will steam it, anyway, it won't be the same for three hundred and sixty-five days a year, I'll just wait to count the money and count the cramps in my hands." Lin Qianxun was full of confidence, and Fu Changqing asked after smiling slightly.
"Don't buy a few maids again?"
"I don't need it for the time being, when the business is good, I'll buy a few maids." Lin Qianxun is very planned, and the current cold slashing money is not enough, I don't know when Helian Rui will send the money, and it is estimated that it will be the end of the year.
"I'm paying?" Fu Changqing asked tentatively.
"Nope." Lin Qianxun shook his head resolutely.
After a meal, everyone went to bed early, and at six o'clock in the morning, the group left the forest house, and the children could only wait until the moment of opening to take a look at it from a distance.
Before everyone was ready, there was a buzzing sound outside the door, Lin Qianxun was still making tea, he was afraid that a distinguished guest would come, and he didn't drink it, so he just brought out the water and heard the sound.
"So early?" She asked, surprised.
Kunnu looked through the crack in the door, only to see a dense group of people, some dressed in Luo Qi, some in plain clothes, and many people knew Fu Changqing, when they saw him shaking the feather fan, the peach blossom picture on the fan was particularly beautiful, they surrounded one by one and asked related questions.
Fu Changqing's expression was very normal, he should have seen these people before, so he was extremely comfortable with it.
"A lot of people, do you want to start now?" The summer sunrise came out very early, about five o'clock in the morning, and the moment Leng Chop Feng left, half of his face was revealed from the east.
"Wait, the buns aren't good yet, it's okay to let them wait, anyway, with Fu Changqing here, I'm not afraid of them complaining." Lin Qianxun was not in a hurry at all.
After an unhurried clean up, the door to the delicious return slowly opened from the inside, and then I saw Lin Qianxun wearing a red long dress, she dressed up specially today, and the corners of her eyes were red A little red eyeshadow stretched the corners of her eyes longer.
Especially the blush that showed a little skin color and blood on her blown-up cheeks, as well as the lipstick as red as a summer cuckoo, and the double-sided butterfly-spitting cat embroidered on the shake in her hand made her even more lazy and luxurious.
Fu Changqing, who was the leader, suddenly had his pupils atrophied, and he didn't know whether he was stunned by the sudden visual impact, or he was stunned by Lin Qianxun's slightly hooked eyes, he felt a rush out of his chest, and his throat was astringent for a while.
"Diners, today is delicious and then come to the restaurant to open, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to support, today I will be generous, everything in the restaurant to spend more than one or two silver, you can enjoy eighty percent of the discount Simply put, if the meal is a silver, I only charge eight hundred dollars, as for the shy friends in the pocket, or foreign businessmen who come to our Guanshan to do business, or friends who are in difficulty for a while, more or less give a little, it will be regarded as a good food for us to come to the restaurant to publicize and publicize, but there is one point not to consult and make trouble, Don't eat white food, after all, I'm a small business. That's all I have to say, please inside, there are vacant seats in the hall on the first floor, and there are private rooms on the second floor. The red steps on Lin Qianxun's burgundy hair swayed from side to side with her movements, not knowing whether it was to stir her own heart or someone else's heart.
Fu Changqing took mechanical steps and entered the restaurant in the midst of several bright young Tuya men pushing and shoving.
Most of them are congratulators, probably know that Lin Qianxun has a little back, and they all come to climb the relationship, but there are still diners looking for taste, when they enter the restaurant, everyone is bright, which is the place to eat, it is simply a simple shelf set up out of thin air in the wild, everyone sits in it and smells the smell of green plants, looks at the paintings on the wall from time to time, and then comes to a plate of small and exquisite buns or steamed dumplings, this lively morning is over.
The children guarding the forest house did not hear the crackling firecrackers, thinking that it was not open, and in the middle of waiting left and right, Kunnu came back with food
"Eat, I'll bring you today's lunch." After he finished speaking, he ran away without waiting for Buck and the others to speak.
Looking at the steaming steamer on the table, they wanted to look back, and then Nanna spoke.
"This is the opening?"
"yes." Xiaohu looked at Buck and replied.
The restaurant was full of people for a while, shouting, and the sound of discussion was endless, Lin Qianxun stood at the cash register, serving braised pig's trotters for an old man who was about fifty years old, Guanshan is a pass after all, unlike Kyoto, those dignitaries and nobles only eat what they think are high-end ingredients for the so-called face-free, but they miss more deliciousness.
The color of the marinade is sugar, and then a little bit of shallots are sprinkled to enhance the taste, which is called perfect, and by the way, we are sent to our store's summer sweet drink, wine.
"This is a summer ice drink launched by the shop, the old gentleman uses it slowly" Lin Qianxun showed his standard eight teeth, and as he spoke, he put the braised pig's trotters on the table, and before the old man could speak, he entered the inner room like the wind.
"How's the stir-fry prepared upstairs?" Lin Qianxun saw the sweat on Cuicui's face, and the smoke around her was aerated from time to time, and she waved her hand.
"It's almost, there are too many people today, girl, and I can't do it for a while." Cuicui fried a dish of bamboo shoots, and used her arms to block the taste of snatching people while frying, her sideburns were sweaty, and it seemed that it was really hard.
"This is the first day, it is inevitable that people will work harder, you can bear with it, I will come down to help you when I send something." Lin Qianxun got a glass of warm water for Cuicui and handed it over, Cuicui didn't shirk it, grabbed it and drank it with her head up.
"Girl, have another drink." She gasped.
"Okay." Lin Qianxun got another cup for her, and then handed it over, so no less than three times, it relieved Cuicui's thirst, when a plate of delicate cheat sheets, plus white and tender buns, and delicate and refreshing dumplings, there was also a pot of wine next to it, although it was not for a long time, but it tasted good.
She went straight to the second floor of the class, and then she wanted to crutch with her right hand to a private room.
When I reached for a knock on the door, I heard several voices coming from inside.
"Changqing, that boss lady and you know just now?" The man's voice was a little hoarse, and there was a slight curiosity in his tone.
"It's my cousin-in-law." Fu Changqingqing's cold voice came.
"It's a pity that this fairy-looking proprietress is married." Another man was slightly lamented by the infection.
"Even if you don't get married, it's not that you and I can marry home, look at that appearance, there is no silver for 1,800 yuan, and you still want her to be beautiful all the time." The sound was supposed to have come from another man, who poured water as he drank it.
"That's right." The others chimed in.
Lin Qianxun shook his head, and then raised his hand and knocked.
When two rings later, the sound came from inside
"Come in."
"Cousin, I'll send you some food to eat, see if there's anything you're not satisfied with, you can tell me, this is my fruit wine, try it." The moment Lin Qianxun pushed the door in, the four of them turned around together, and found that Lin Qianxun was smiling like a flower, and put things on the table as he spoke, and without waiting for them to speak, he picked up the wine jug holding the fruit wine, and motioned for them to push the cup over, and she poured the wine.
For Lin Qianxun's speed, the four of them had to admire, in everyone's stunned eyes, her burgundy liquid flowed out from the corners of the mouth of the wine jug, and then with a faint sweet and cold taste, it came to everyone.
"That's what you mean by wine?" Fu Changqing asked.
The three people present were stunned, not knowing what kind of operation this was.
"No, it's just a simple fruit wine made from grapes, and in a few days there will be any cherry fruit wine, lychee fruit wine, and rose aromatic dew, the wine my cousin wants for at least half a year, the longer it lasts, the more mellow it tastes." Lin Qianxun glanced at a few people, and then explained with a smile.
"I see, Ah Feng can't come today because of something, will you deliver lunch or will I transfer it on my behalf?" Fu Changqing is extremely enthusiastic today, and I don't know if it's because he can breathe through it, or because he is accompanied by his confidants and friends.
"Don't worry, I'll see it at lunch, since my cousin and you sons have something to talk about, I won't bother here, there are still many guests waiting to be served downstairs." Lin Qianxun hesitated for a moment, then replied.
"Go ahead." Fu Changqing didn't give the others a chance to speak at all, and sent Lin Qianxun out in a few words.
"Changqing, what are you?" The three friends asked puzzled.
"I don't think my cousin and daughter-in-law should take care of the other guests, you and I are good friends, and we don't need the proprietress to serve on the side, if my jealous cousin knows, I'm afraid your head will be lost." Fu Changqing slowly sandwiched a piece of meat fried with just the right color and put it into his mouth, and then took a sip of fruit wine, the taste was sweet and rich, he liked this taste.
The three people present shook their heads, shook off the strange feeling, and hurriedly tasted something.
