With a windfall, Jinse finally had the opportunity to renovate the second floor of a tavern.

For the arrival of the Lan family, it also made her realize that it is not enough to make money with milk tea.

If a tavern wants to grow better, it must further expand its customer base.

If she can let the group of people who live in the top aristocratic district on Yangcheng East Street come to Youyou Tavern to consume, her business will go to the next level.

There are four streets in Yangcheng, the east street is the place where the rich families live, the west street is the market business district, the north street is the location of the yamen, and the people living in the north street are mostly relatives of the government, and the south street is mostly commoners.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of renovation and rectification, Jin Se decided to visit the celebrity chef and make the sign of a tavern even louder.

But before that, she had one more important thing to do.

Lantian suddenly confessed to her before leaving, which scared her a lot.

Although understood, the other party may say it casually. But I like you, for a person who has been single for more than 20 years, the lethality is really strong.

Strong enough that she had insomnia thinking about another man. She hadn't seen Zhou Zimu for several days.

He's angry, isn't he? Will you ignore me in the future?

If the business in the store is not good, she will not be distressed. The love problem really made her sad.

She decided to take the initiative to reconcile, after all, Zhou Zimu was different in her heart in this world.

After two days of preparation, he was ridiculed by Qian Bao halfway.

"Shopkeeper, what are you embroidering? The master embroiders better than you with his feet. ”

"Laugh and laugh, and then laugh at you embroidering one for me with your feet. If you can't embroider it, you are not allowed to eat today. ”

Qian Bao couldn't help but laugh and quickly ran away.

After two days, she finally embroidered her finished product.

She brought another bag of tea and came to Zhou Zimu in Yamen.

Zhou Zimu has also been busy recently, he has just finished reciting a brief history of Tianyao Kingdom, and Ying Yi gave him a book of clan maps.

His life after crossing is either endorsing or on the way to endorsement. The original body had amnesia, and he didn't know anything, so he had to learn from scratch.

"Seeing how hard you have been working lately, I bought you a bag of tea. I don't know what you like to drink, so I just buy it. Jinse lowered his head and tried to calm his tone.

"Thank you, I like to drink Longjing, buy me Longjing next time." Zhou Zimu accepted the tea calmly.

"Last time I was wrong, I didn't lose my temper with you. You worked hard to get my money back, and I kicked you out of the house. "Jinse has a deep understanding of his own mistakes.

"It's okay, I know you're in a bad mood at the time. The big ups and downs are to vent. Zhou Zimu didn't care, after all, he teased Jin Se first, although it wasn't his intention.

Jin Se took out a pair of insoles from his cuffs and quickly stuffed them into Zhou Zimu's hands. said nervously: "I see that you are walking the streets all day long, and I embroidered a pair of insoles for you." The embroidery is not good, don't dislike it. ”

Zhou Zimu looked at a pair of embroidered insoles with a chicken picture in his hand, and forced a smile: "The chicken picture is embroidered very vividly." ”

It's not a problem of bad embroidery, not even embroidery. It's obviously cross-stitch, okay?

It's a shame that Zhou Zimu is also a modern person. The ability to accept is stronger than Qian Bao. He recognized at a glance that the strange embroidery was cross-stitch, and did not dismantle the brocade.

"It's not a chicken, it's a bird!" The angry Jinse said that he wanted to snatch it back.

Zhou Zimu had already put it away: "If you don't want to go back, I will remember to wear it." But how do you know how big I'm wearing? ”

"I quietly asked the yamen about other catchers." Jin Se said embarrassedly.

No wonder those guys laughed when they saw me recently, Zhou Zimu thought to himself.

"The shop has been renovated recently, and I may be out for a few days." Jin Se said goodbye to Zhou Zimu.

"You girl, be careful on the road."

"Don't worry, Qian Bao is with me, and he has a secret guard by his side."

Coming back from Zhou Zimu, Jin Se and Qian Bao set off to find a celebrity chef. The matter of shop decoration was handed over to Lantian. When Jinse is not there, he will be in charge of keeping an eye on the store.

Now that they are all shares, they can't just give money, they have to do something.

Their first stop was to Master Qian's old acquaintance, a master who was said to have more than ten years of experience.

The old master received them politely, he was an old acquaintance of Master Qian, so he naturally recognized Qian Bao.

A cook's place to live is better than mine, Jin Se sat in the flower hall and drank tea sadly.

"Grandpa Jiang, you are my father's old acquaintance. I'm here to invite you out of the mountain. Qian Bao is humble and polite, and he has changed his usual arrogant appearance.

Chef Jiang is the old man of the Qian family, so naturally it is more convenient for him to speak, which was discussed before entering the door. It's just that Jin Se didn't expect him to perform so perfectly.

Chef Jiang was pleasantly surprised and surprised, he smiled and said, "Why does your father's old miser want to open a restaurant?" The money village is not enjoyable, and you want to open a new shop? ”

Qian Bao smiled and shook his head: "Grandpa said that he was laughing, who doesn't know that my father is only a money bank." This time, I would like to invite you to be the head chef at a tavern. ”

"There's a tavern, that's not ......," Chef Jiang swallowed the words behind.

He is a traditional man, and his grandparents have been cooks for three generations. He has been in the industry for more than ten years, and his reputation is also well-known.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to enjoy some blessings when he was old, he wouldn't have left the restaurant.

There is a tavern, a woman's tavern, and it is said that alcohol is not sold in it. What kind of ghost tavern is that, he looks down on Zhuang Jinse from the bottom of his heart.

After all, it was an old fox who had lived for decades, and Chef Jiang did not refuse.

"Xiaobao, you know, grandpa, I'm old. If the salary is not enough, grandpa doesn't want to go out of the mountain. For a little silver, my grandfather was tired and sick, but what could I do. ”

Chef Jiang stretched out a finger: "That's it, give me 15 taels of gold a month." Grandpa barely worked for a few more years. ”

Jin Se squirted out a mouthful of tea, and she hurriedly covered Qian Bao's mouth, for fear that he would agree to it quickly.

15 taels of gold a month, that's 150 silver. Jin Se earns just enough money in a month to pay the chef's salary.

She can't afford such an expensive cook.

"Excuse me, we'll go first. There will be a period later! Jin Se took Qian Baotou and didn't look back.

"Shopkeeper, why are you pulling me out. Grandpa Jiang's craftsmanship is very famous, and even the former emperor has eaten his dishes before. "Qian Bao is still struggling.

"My good dear, 15 taels of gold! I can't afford to please. I still have 500 taels of debt to pay. Jin Se shouted angrily.

Qian Bao quieted down at this time: "Then what should I do?" We can't go back empty-handed. ”

"Look again."

Their second stop was the home of a famous chef in Yangcheng.

The other party refused more directly, disgusted that there was a tavern that was not famous. Just a small shop on South Street.

Repeated refusals made Jinse lose confidence. Why is it so hard to find a good cook?

In order to have a tavern to develop, she couldn't just find a cook.

A good chef is the core of a restaurant, in addition to this core, decoration, packaging, and service are all its exterior.

The core is not good, how to retain guests. After all, guests come to the restaurant to eat.

After a busy day, there was nothing to gain. Jin Se dragged his tired body back to the tavern with Qian Bao.

On the way, I met Lantian who was about to go home.

"Seeing that you are listless, this trip seems to have yielded nothing." Lantian didn't hit them, "You guys have worked hard, go back and rest early." The materials have been delivered to the store, and the staircase can be renovated tomorrow. ”

"Thank you." Jinse had no strength.

"By the way, I heard that there is a Niu Xingang Imperial Chef in Niujia Village who has returned from the palace, and many people have come to invite him, but the imperial chef seems to have a strange temper, and no one has succeeded." Lantian gave Jin Se a message.

Hearing the imperial kitchen, hope was rekindled in Jin Se's eyes! This time I must take it!

Before dawn on the second day, Jin Se went out early. She hired an ox cart and went to Niujia Village amid Qian Bao's complaints.

Niujia Village is ten miles outside Yangcheng, although the village is not large, there are hundreds of families living in it.

Jin Se found an uncle at the village gate to ask for directions.

"Uncle, may I ask how to go to Niu Xingang's house?" Jin Se asked kindly.

"Bull Star what?"

"Niu Xingang."

Uncle's ears were a little back: "What Xingang?" ”

"Niu Xingang."

"What kind of cow?"

"Niu Xingang." Jin Se completely lost his temper, "You can rest." ”

After asking two more people, Jin Se finally came to Niu Xingang's house.

"You look for Xing'er, he went out to chop wood. Excuse me. "The one who received them was Niu Xingang's mother.

The woman's eyes were blank for a long time before she fumbled for the teacup and was ready to pour tea for Jinse.

"Don't bother, auntie. We just drank it on the way here. Jin Se saw that the eldest lady was blind and unable to move, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Who are you? What are you doing in my house? "A man in cloth came in outside the door, it was Niu Xingang!

To Jin Se's surprise, the former imperial chef was dark-skinned and athletic. He carried firewood on his back and a cane in his hand.

"We didn't mean anything, we just came to find you, Chef Niu." Jin Se expressed his intention, "I am Zhuang Jinse, the owner of a tavern, and I want you to invite you to be the head chef of my tavern. ”

Niu Xingang stared at Jin Se's face, and suddenly became angry: "Get out!" Get out of my house! ”
