Chapter 341: Tasting and Evaluation
It was lunch time, and the business of this restaurant seemed to be really good, not only was it full inside, but there were dozens of people waiting outside. When Hanguang saw it, he was immediately disappointed: "When will this be able to get to us?" ”
Lu Yanyi was Xiaoxiao and did not speak. The cousin who greeted the guest at the door saw it at a glance, but immediately greeted him, full of enthusiasm: "Yo, Master Lu, you haven't been here for a while, you must be busy with big things again." ”
"I haven't done anything big, but I see that your store is really hot."
"Look at what you said, no matter what we do, it's a small business, where can it be compared~~" Before he finished speaking, he was intercepted by Lu Yanyi's eyes, and immediately changed his words: "It's all relying on your help, isn't it?" ”
"Don't just pick and choose. Do you have any fresh vegetables here today? ”
"Master Lu, you can be regarded as coming, our master here has come up with a few dishes, and I want to invite you to try them." The cousin smiled and led the three of them upstairs: "This young lady and the young master face each other, walk slowly." Lu Gongzibao's private room is on the second floor, in the innermost, you can see the scenery outside the window, which is the best in my house. You watch the soles of your feet. ”
In the envious eyes of those waiting guests, the group went upstairs. The cousin led the way and said, "It's good that you don't come, our shopkeeper was worried a few days ago, did we offend you somewhere in the store?" Won't you take care of our business? If that's the case, the little one will compensate you here first, don't be like us, if you don't appreciate your face, I'm afraid we won't be able to do it. ”
"You slippery head!" Lu Yanyi asked the Qingwan sister and brother to sit down first, and then she sat on the main seat, "If you have anything new, just bring it, don't nag here." ”
"Don't worry, Childe! The little one went to the kitchen and commanded. The church hurriedly agreed in a loud voice, and went away.
"Master Lu, I don't know if this money is enough for you." Qingwan took out thirty taels of the remaining silver and handed it over. Last time in Deyuan Hall, she paid attention to the guy who grabbed the medicine, and a ginseng was worth about twenty taels of silver, but seeing that Lu Yanyi had helped many times, the ginseng was indeed good, and it solved her urgent need, so she took thirty taels out.
Lu Yanyi didn't refuse, and stretched out his hand to take it: "I won't shirk, I know that you will definitely return it to me." Just take it first, and if there is anything in the future, I will try my best to help. ”
"Exactly." Seeing that he was so generous, Qingwan also felt comfortable: "Childe's words are not bad. If you don't take it, my heart will not be at ease. In the future, I will do a small business in the county, but I am afraid that I will have to rely on my son to take care of me. ”
"You're also going to sell tea?" Lu Yanyi suddenly asked.
"Childe guessed?"
Lu Yanyi picked up the tea cup on the table and pointed: "Just now, you would rather pay a few taels of silver than leave those stoves and guys, if you don't also sell tea, what do you want to do?" ”
Qingwan also smiled, but explained: "To be precise, I am not selling tea, this year's tea price has risen, everyone knows that this business is not easy to do." I want to sell medicinal drinks. ”
"Medicinal drinks?"
"That's right," Qingwan put the teacup back, "Since Childe's family is also in the pharmacy business, I probably know that there are a lot of people who have suffered from high fever recently, all because they can't afford to drink tea and the climate is dry. On the mountain in our village, there are so many big green leaves that we can't pick them all. It is said in medical books that boiling water with large green leaves is the best way to clear away heat and reduce fire, and it is the best way to cure high fever. So I wanted to set up a small stall and cook medicinal drinks to sell. The price is cheaper than tea, and everyone will definitely be able to afford it. It can also prevent diseases and save people. Isn't that a good deal? ”
"Oh?" Lu Yanyi raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Your idea is not bad." In addition to the pharmacy in the city, it is a tea stall, no one has ever sold medicinal drinks, and now is the dry time of autumn, once it opens, it will definitely be prosperous. It seems that you don't simply know some pharmacology, you tell the truth, in addition to following Lang Zhong in the countryside, have you also learned? ”
Although his tone was light, his clear eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everything, and his eyes seemed to say: Nothing can escape my eyes!
"Where do I go to school?" Qingwan sipped the tea lightly, calmly looked at Lu Yanyi's gaze, without panic, and couldn't see any traces of concealment: "I haven't finished the school, so I don't have the money to read, this is also a coincidence, one day I went up the mountain to look for wild vegetables, and I saw a book under an old tree, which was full of medical science, and I wrote it down." In fact, I don't know much, this business of medicinal drinks is also trapped by family circumstances, and there is really no way to come up with such an idea. Childe is a family of doctors, and he will probably say that I have an axe in my class. ”
Lu Yanyi looked at her: "If you say that your family is in a difficult situation, I believe it." If you want to say you don't know anything, you can't hide it from me. I've been a doctor since I was a child, and I can tell at a glance that you're not just scratching the surface. It seems that the girl still can't trust me and doesn't want to tell me the truth. ”
Can I still tell the truth? Qingwan thought to herself, "Childe doesn't believe it, and I can't help it, but I really haven't learned." In fact, along with medical skills, Childe must also understand that learning is one thing, and the most important thing is to continue to accumulate experience in life. Familiar with Uncle Wang, it is not as good as clinical symptoms. This is a common saying of the doctor, let's just say that this is a medicinal drink, we have a headache and brain fever in the countryside, where is the willingness to spend money to ask Lang Zhong to take medicine? Most of them find some wild herbs in the mountains, boil and drink, and many of them can be cured. As far as I know, dandelions, purslane, and corn whiskers can be used in medicine to cure diseases, and I also thought of it from here that I went to the city to sell tea. ”
"Okay," Lu Yanyi smiled with a rare compromise, "You have a point." I won't ask either. But if I don't say comforting words, this business will definitely be good, and when the time comes, I'm afraid that you will count the money until you are soft. ”
Qingwan was just about to answer, but she heard a shout outside the door: "The dish is here!" ”
Then, the hall man pushed the door in, holding a large tea tray in one hand, with six plates in each one, and skillfully placed the dishes one by one: "Master Lu, the small one is not wrong. You've never eaten any of these dishes before, right? This is all newly figured out by the master, waiting for you to taste it. ”
"Miss Qing, please use it first. Hanguang, here is just like your own home, you must be hungry, right? Just eat. Lu Yanyi didn't make a move, but greeted them first.
Qingwan saw that the dishes were really novel and eye-catching, and they were different from the ones in ordinary restaurants, so she casually took a pair of chopsticks: "This is made of pears?" ”
"This girl is right!" The cousin hurriedly said, "This is to use the best red Xiao pear to remove the skin, add white fungus, lily, water chestnut, snow lotus, all cut into dices, simmer slowly, only put a little rock sugar, and finally melt in the mouth, sweet and not greasy." It's the most nourishing. ”
Lu Yanyi also tasted it: "This dish is suitable for eating at this time, and the taste is quite acceptable." ”
"How else to say that Childe is a person who understands! This is a dish specially prepared by our master chef for this autumn, and now that the climate in the city is hot and dry, it is most beneficial to order this! The cousin said proudly, and pointed to the rest of the dishes one by one: "And this one, it is a sweet soup boiled with water chestnuts, which is made of duck meat to remove the fishy smell and served with tofu clothes." This season, you just can't use a dry product like mutton, don't you say? ”
"It seems that your master still has two hands," Lu Yanyi said with a smile, "You know the side dishes according to the season." No wonder you see so many people at your doorstep and say that business is not good? ”
"What else do you not know?" The cousin smiled and said, "If you want to say that my shopkeeper and master can think of this, it is all thanks to the guidance of Lu Gongzi in the past, that he understands the truth that medicine and food are of the same origin." To tell you the truth, the business of every restaurant in the city has been light recently, and my family's former signature dishes have not been sold. You see so many people waiting outside, everyone is here for this. ”
"It's no wonder that in this small county, there are a few old dishes over and over again, you can be unique, naturally everyone wants to try it."
Lu Yanyi's words were not finished, but he heard a commotion outside, Lu Yanyi couldn't help frowning, and the hall hurriedly smiled: "Knowing that you are here, I have ordered the guys not to make a loud noise, I don't know which guest it is, probably drunk and making trouble there." Don't be angry, I'll go out and have a look. ”
Before the hall could open the door, the noise was loud for a while, and it had clearly entered the private room: "Blind your dog's eyes!" Don't you look at who our son is? How dare you stop it? Don't get out of the way yet! ”
Hearing this, Lu Yanyi put down his chopsticks and sneered: "Xu is not drunk, which young master is here, you are not well entertained, right?" ”
The cousin was nervous and sweaty: "The little one hasn't heard who it is."
Before the words fell, it seemed to be at the staircase, and there was a chaotic and fighting voice: "Don't talk about your small county, even if it is in the state capital, Lao Tzu doesn't care where to eat, I haven't met you like this!" Lao Tzu wants to see who is sitting in this private room upstairs! ”
"This lord, that"
Before he could finish answering, the sound of noisy footsteps gradually approached. Hanguang was a little nervous, subconsciously held his sister's hand tightly, and looked at Lu Yanyi again, but saw Lu Yanyi's calm expression, drinking tea slowly, as if there was no such thing.
With a bang, the door of the private room was pushed open, followed by three or four cousins, two of whom were still beaten with bruises and purple faces: "This house has already been taken by Lu Gongzi."
"You can't afford to open it yet!" A few people who looked like followers pushed the cousin aside: "If you dare to talk more, knock out your teeth!" ”
Lu Yanyi turned a deaf ear and didn't raise his eyelids.
