Zhu Yuan nodded and sighed: "We don't have so much financial resources, and besides, what our store sells is word-of-mouth and fame, if you invite you to eat for free, it's not that you despise yourself, who is willing to spend a lot of money to eat our fish in the future?" ”

After sitting in the store for a long time and unable to think of a countermeasure, she changed her clothes and decided to go to the newly opened restaurant to see it herself.

When I arrived at the new restaurant, it was already past the meal, but there were still many people eating in the restaurant, and the excitement was the same as the meal.

People in small places have a kind of thinking of taking advantage, and now there is such a good advantage to take advantage of, they will not be willing to go back if they don't eat until their belly is round.

She walked into the restaurant, and immediately a warm shopkeeper came to entertain her: "Guest officer, there are still vacant seats upstairs, please!" ”

This attitude makes people feel comfortable, and Zhu Yuan secretly remembers it in his heart, and he will also improve the service level of the fish restaurant after he goes back.

When he arrived on the second floor, Zhu Yuan suddenly saw the county lord of Xiangyang and thought that she was also here to eat.

When I walked in, I found that she was asking the little boys to serve the food and work, with the posture of a boss.

She asked Xiao Er who led the way: "Isn't that the princess of Xiangyang?" What was she doing there? ”

Xiao Er replied: "The county lord is the owner of our restaurant, and I am afraid that the guys will be busy, so I will keep an eye on it in person." ”

Only then did Zhu Yuan understand, no wonder this restaurant had the financial resources, it turned out to be opened in Xiangyang.

What is the purpose of this...... Zhu Yuan remembered the picture he saw on the street that day and smiled bitterly.

Sure enough, it's still a lot of money, and Xiangyang can easily make his store out of business.

"Yo, isn't this Miss Zhu, why did you come to my restaurant for dinner?" Xiangyang noticed Zhu Yuan and walked over proudly.

"I heard that a new restaurant has opened, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect it to be opened by the county lord."

Xiangyang saw that her table was empty, so he called the shopkeeper: "Give Miss Zhu a few dishes that our restaurant master is best at, and ask her to taste them." ”

After that, sitting next to Zhu Yuan, Lan Ruo poured hot tea for the two of them.

"It just so happens that I haven't had lunch either, so let's eat together."

Zhu Yuan is helpless, this Xiangyang county lord is really out of sight.

Xiangyang quietly looked at Zhu Yuan's face and found that she was calm and not a little uncomfortable, which was a little strange.

Didn't she see herself and Ning Bosheng close that day? Or did she not care at all?

Zhu Yuan found out about Xiangyang's inquiry, but the purpose of her trip was to test the level of the restaurant, and other things were put aside for the time being.

The dishes are up, there are a few Huainan classic dishes, but most of them are Beijing cuisine.

Xiangyang said proudly: "The chefs in our restaurant are all brought by me from the capital, and the Beijing cuisine is a must, I wish the girl has not eaten much Beijing cuisine, try it." ”

Xiangyang is satirizing Zhuyuan hillbilly and has not been to the capital much.

However, Zhu Yuan was relieved after hearing that the chef was good at cooking Beijing food.

Northerners are salty, while Southerners are sweet. Huainan people only eat Beijing food for a while, and they can't eat it for a long time.

Restaurants in Xiangyang can't always be free, and once they start charging, customers who aren't used to eating will still return to local restaurants.

"I wish the girl a taste?"

Zhu Yuan picked up the chopsticks, tasted every dish, and praised sincerely: "The craftsmanship is good, and he deserves to be a famous chef." ”

"I wish the girl is also quite famous in Huainan, do you dare to compete with our cook?"

"Oh?" Zhu Yuan chuckled, "What if the county lord wants to win, and what if he loses?" ”

"Whoever loses promises to win." Xiangyang also proposed it on a whim, and he didn't think about what conditions to put forward.

"Isn't that unruly? What if the other party proposes something that cannot be done at all? Zhu Yuan did not agree.

At this time, the meal was also finished, and the situation in Xiangyang Restaurant was almost the same, so Zhu Yuan got up and prepared to leave.

Xiangyang stood up and said unceremoniously: "Miss Zhu is reluctant to agree, do you think you will lose?" ”

Zhu Yuan's footsteps paused.

In fact, it is false to say that she is not afraid, she tasted these dishes, and the taste was excellent, and she couldn't fault the slightest.

Xiangyang is the lord of the county and can afford to lose, but she can't afford to lose.

"Oh, a few days ago, I saw Miss Zhu reopening with great fanfare, saying that what amazing divine fish can drive disasters and take refuge, I thought it was so powerful. Lan Ruo, do you think I can publicize and publicize it, saying that Zhujia Fish House is not as good as our restaurant? ”

Xiangyang saw Zhu Yuan's hesitation, and Yin and Yang angrily provoked her.

Zhu Yuan turned his head and said indifferently: "Since the county lord wants to compare, let's compare." ”

"Good!" Xiangyang asked Lan Ruo to shout in the store to inform everyone of the incident.

"Everyone, the girl Zhu of our restaurant and Zhujia Fish Restaurant decided to try her cooking skills, and the big guys are waiting to see which one is the best delicacy in Huainan City!"

Everyone loves to watch the excitement, and they are all excited after listening to it, and one spread ten, and after a while, the news spread all over Huainan City.

Zhang Chi was recuperating at home, and when he heard the news, he snorted coldly.

"This Zhu Yuan is really beyond his means, the county lord invited all the famous chefs in the Central Plains, what kind of thing is she?"

The clever attendant beside Zhang Chi shook his head and said: "Childe, I have also been to the county lord's restaurant, and the dishes are all Beijing cuisine, which is delicious and delicious, not to the taste of our southerners, if you really want to compete, maybe Zhu Yuan can really compare them." ”

Zhang Chi glanced at him and gritted his teeth: "Zhu Yuan has hurt me so badly, I must not let her have a good life!" Hurry up and figure it out, how can she make her lose without certainty? ”

The attendant walked around the room for a long time, and suddenly patted his head and thought: "Let's just ask the northerners to judge, won't it?" ”

"Then Zhu Yuan is not stupid, can she agree?" Zhang Chi was skeptical.

"The county lord is the most loved by the queen mother and the queen in the capital, if you can invite the two of them to be judged, first, the county lord of Xiangyang will win, and second, Zhu Yuan will not dare to say anything."

Zhang Chi thought about it and felt that this method was feasible.

"But where did I invite those two Buddhas?" Zhang Chi knew that he was just a local son, and he didn't even have a chance to enter the palace, let alone talk to the queen mother.

"Eh, we don't need to say it in person, as long as this idea reaches the ears of the county lord of Xiangyang, the county lord can figure it out if he thinks about it carefully, this is the safest way for her to win."

The master and servant made up their minds, and this mobilized people to spread rumors in the streets and alleys that "the Queen Mother is going to judge this competition".

The news really reached Xiangyang's ears, and when she first heard it, she said disdainfully: "Where did this rumor come from?" How can the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother have such idle time to take care of this matter, they also think too highly of Zhu Yuan. ”

However, Lan Ruo thought about it carefully and persuaded Xiangyang: "Although it is a rumor, but the county lord, think about it, if you really let the queen mother and the queen mother do the review, the county lord, you are not sure to win?" ”

Xiangyang listened to the reason, and hurriedly ordered people to prepare a carriage and went to the palace.
