Chapter Seventy-One: Negotiating with Nexperia
When they arrived in the town, several people parted ways, and the three members of the Yu family, under the leadership of Lan Ya, did not enter the restaurant but entered the teahouse, ordered a pot of tea, poured it slowly, and talked with the shopkeeper.
After a while, I figured out the situation of the restaurant in the town.
There are three most famous restaurants in Longtou Town, the most famous is Fengxian Building, which is rich in dishes, full of pomp, and the most powerful, which is the industry of the Shen family, the maiden family of Princess Beixiao.
The second place is Lixiang Building, the wine brewed is the most outstanding, the famous "General Drunk" is from here, there is also a wine that is not for sale, called Lixiang Alcohol, divided into first class and second class, the first class pays tribute to the palace, the second class is only sold in Lixiang Building, and the people who come to taste the wine flock to it, and there is an endless stream.
Recently opened a new restaurant in the western suburbs of the town, although it is not open, but it has been expected by the people of Longtou Town, the name is called the Sun and Moon Building, the building is seven floors high, the highest floor is decorated with glass, the eyes can be seen, the sun and the moon are within reach, it is the highest building in Longtou Town except Puren Temple. The person who opened this restaurant is not someone else, it is the Wang family, a famous business family in Nanchuan.
Lan Ya's eyes couldn't help but light up, and her mental timing was decided.
Fengxian Tower is the property of the Shen family, the maiden family of the princess of Beixiao, and the power is too huge, and the other party does not bother to cooperate with him;
Lixiang House is good at wine, and it is inevitable that it does not pay enough attention to the dishes;
The Wang family is a business family, and they will abide by certain business rules and business ethics, and she also wants to see who this person who rejected her sister-in-law Yu Caihe is sacred.
With a plan in his heart, he slowly drank the rest of the tea.
A few scholar-looking people came to the door of the teahouse, and they entered the teahouse with a worried face, and the little second brother hurriedly greeted them.
I only heard a scholar sigh and say: "Brother Li, if you say goodbye today, everything is precious, but I don't know when we will be able to get together." ”
The scholar surnamed Li said to another scholar with a worried look: "Brother Zhang, Brother Wang and I both defected to Nanchuan, you go home and persuade your father, put down your son and accompany your uncle and aunt, bow your head, admit your mistake, and go to Nanchuan to ask for a living." Now the Yuri tribe continues to rain for a month, the disaster is serious, and now there are still some prey to hunt in the mountains and rivers, and when the snow closes the door in winter, Yuli will definitely disturb the border again as three years ago, if it can't be stopped, it will definitely go to Longtou Town for a period of burning and killing and plundering, and make good preparations earlier. ”
Lan Ya's eyes couldn't help but sink, and the Yuri tribe that was separated from him by a barrier from the Seven Star Mountain actually suffered a disaster? Or a flood? Will the flood spread to Yujia Village in the Seven Star Mountains? Will Yuri come into the village and loot it? ...... A series of changes made Lan Ya can't help but reconsider the problem.
With heavy steps, Lan Ya and Yu Sanguang and Lan Xiang walked towards the Sun Moon Tower.
The direction of the Sun Moon Tower is the opposite of Puren Temple, it is located in the suburbs of Longtou Town, inaccessible to people, the terrain is higher, and it looks at Longtou Town from here, as if Longtou Town is in a valley.
The tall restaurant, built on the high terrain, appears more towering into the clouds, into the eye, surrounded by a flat river, countless farmland, planted with lush wheat fields, the breeze passes, forming a wave of wheat that spreads with twists and turns, and the edge is invisible.
A few people walked into the restaurant, and the little second brother was setting up tables and chairs, and when he saw the three of them, he didn't raise his head and didn't open his eyes: "Guest officer, the restaurant will only open in three days." ”
Lan Ya looked at the furnishings in the restaurant unhurriedly, simple but elegant, low-key but luxurious, and the heritage of the Wang family was really extraordinary.
Lan Ya smiled and stuffed a bunch of money to the guy, and said with a smile: "Little second brother is hard, we are here to find your young owner." ”
The little second brother stiffened his nose, looked at Lan Xiang, looked at Lan Ya again, pushed back the silver money and said: "Little girl, I advise you to die of heart, the Shaodong family will not accept a woman from Beichuan, let alone a daughter from a poor family." ”
Lan Ya reflected that it took a long time to understand what was going on, and it was good to be in a hurry, this little second brother regarded himself as a girl who took the initiative to come to the door to 'throw himself into his arms'.
handed the silver money to the little second brother, took out the sliced duck, shredded green onions, sweet noodle sauce and pancakes from under the cloth towel, set them on the table, cleaned his hands in the basin like a cook, wrapped a cake roll of duck meat, handed it to the little second brother's mouth, and said with a sweet smile: "The little second brother misunderstood, we are looking for the young owner to sell vegetable recipes, not the woman who wants to sell the young owner." ”
The little second brother looked at the white fingers of the female baby, pinched the food and handed it to his lips, embarrassedly cleaned his hands on the rag, took it, put it in his mouth and chewed it, the more he ate, the brighter his eyes became, and said with a smile: "Little girl, wait a minute, the young owner is here, I will come back to you after I tell you." ”
After a while, the little second brother invited the three of Lan Ya to the sixth floor, if it weren't for the practice with Old Man Miao for this half month, it is estimated that Lan Xiang and Lan Ya would have been out of breath.
Leaning against the window on the sixth floor, a young man stood with a long body, his figure was about to stand, standing with his back to the door, and the direction of looking down should be the entire Longtou Town.
The young man was dressed in a royal blue suit, with faint moire entanglements, a dark blue belt, inlaid with gemstones of the same color, his hair was tied up high, and the royal blue jade buckle was decorated.
Looking at the back, you can see that he is a sassy and heroic young man.
Hearing the voice, the young man turned around, Lan Ya couldn't help but be surprised, and pointed at the young man who didn't say anything for a long time.
The young man obviously had never met such a bold female baby, his face couldn't help but be gloomy, his brows couldn't help frowning, Lan Ya hurriedly put away the look, and said with a smile: "Gongzi An, you don't recognize me?" You saved my life! ”
Seeing that the other party was obviously a little dazed, he hurriedly put his hands next to his cheeks and said in a morbid manner: "Yujia Village, go up the mountain, Zhuo's family." ”
The young man suddenly realized: "You are the little girl from Yujia Village?" ”
Lan Ya couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the young man's reaction, he didn't seem to know that he was also his savior, so it was okay to talk about business without pressure.
Lan Ya nodded, and then thought of a little and said: "You don't have the surname An Mingshi, you are Wang Anshi, the young owner of the Wang family, right?" ”
The young man nodded awkwardly, let a few people sit down, and the little second brother went to pour tea.
Lan Ya put the food on the table again and asked Wang Anshi to taste it.
Wang Anshi had eaten roast duck in Zhuo's house, and was no stranger to the taste of roast duck, and also knew that the roast duck came from a little girl in Yujia Village, but he was surprised by the extra pancakes, shredded green onions and sweet noodle sauce.
Wang Anshi smiled and tasted a bite of the burrito, then stopped eating more, looked at Lan Ya with a smile and said, "If you guessed correctly, you are the little girl who sells roast duck to the Zhuo family, right?" It's a secret thing for the Zhuo family! ”
Lan Ya said with a smile: "Wang Gongzi doesn't want to detain a big hat, it's not to hide his secrets, but the materials for making sweet noodle sauce are not ready, and today he is ready, so he is looking for Gongzi to sell it." ”
Wang Anshi nodded noncommittally and said, "Ming people don't say secret words, how much silver is the girl going to sell?" ”
Lan Ya's eyes narrowed slightly, and she replied: "Childe tasted another kind of food, took out a few peanut sticky from his body, handed them to Wang Anshi, and saw that Wang Anshi finished tasting them, so he asked, "What do you think of eating like this?" ”
Wang Anshi replied: "It's good to be a snack or a snack, but it can't be considered a signature dish, and it's not worth a few dollars." ”
Lan Ya pointed to the noodle sauce again and said, "Wang Gongzi, look at this noodle sauce again, the main ingredients in these two foods are the same." It's not intuitive to say, how about I borrow Childe's kitchen? ”
Wang Anshi nodded, and asked the little second brother to lead Lan Xiang and Lan Duo to the room, while he accompanied Yu Sanguang to sit and drink tea on the sixth floor.
Yu Sanguang's face was already drenched in sweat, thinking of Lan Ya's words on the ox cart that the calf was the only man in the family, he straightened his waist in shame and smiled unnaturally at Wang Anshi.
Wang Anshiyan couldn't see the embarrassment of the peasant man, just quietly drank tea, waiting for the surprise that the little girl brought her.
After a while, the little second brother came up with two kinds of food, one was a browned lumpy thing, and the other was an ordinary cabbage soup, and there were more than a dozen round ball-shaped things rolling in the soup.
The boy took the spoon and tasted the lumpy thing first, it was charred and crispy, sweet and sour, and when he bit into it, the material inside was lean meat;
I used a spoon to make a round ball, which was smooth and soft and glutinous, full of tenacity, but I couldn't eat any material.
The two dishes are the same, but they are both novel and delicious.
Wang Anshi raised his eyes to look at Lan Ya and let Lan Ya reveal the mystery.
Lan Ya said with a smile: "Wang Gongzi, I make these two dishes because I want to sell one of the ingredients, this material is widely used, simple to make, fried and fried any dish may be used, and the taste is much better than not using it." ”
After speaking, he took out a clay jar from his arms, handed it to Wang Anshi, opened the jar, and only saw the white powder, which was smooth to the touch, smelled tasteless, and I didn't know what it was.
Wang Anshi's expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and he raised his eyes and said, "With this recipe, why don't you sell it to the most famous Fengxian Building and Lixiang Building?" ”
Lan Ya shrugged and said: "Sun Moon House has just opened, of course there must be loud dishes, I am called a strange commodity to live in, and I believe that the Wang family can give me a reasonable and satisfactory price." ”
Wang Anshi took a deep look at the girl in front of him, who was only eight or nine years old, and then looked at Yu Sanguang, who had been silent next to him, and was surprised in his heart, it seems that this matter can only be talked about with this little girl, she is the backbone of this family.
Wang Anshi couldn't help but have the psychology of comparison in his heart, and said: "The Wang family and people have always been kind and profitable, win-win and mutually beneficial, our cooperation method takes the form of sharing, white powder you can sell to me at one time, roast duck and these two dishes to the number of sales, give you a commission of silver, for the purpose of accounting, monthly settlement." ”
Lan Ya looked at Wang Anshi and said, "Wang Gongzi's words are wrong. First, it is impossible for my sister and I to be stationed in the restaurant, and the recipe must be taught to the Wang family; Second, the Wang family has mastered the roast duck technology, and it is a matter of no longer cooperating with the Yu family; Third, even if the Wang family is kind and continues to share the silver to the Yu family, it is the people of the Wang family who keep the accounts for the purpose of accounting. Fourth, no matter how much silver is paid, what the cost, how much it is sold, and where it is sold are in the hands of the Wang family. ”
