Biyue pursed her lips, and then walked to Mu Yu's side, "Miss, you see that you are not there, I have sprinkled and cleaned all the rooms, and now they are very clean, do you want to take a look." ”

Mu Yu patted Biyue's shoulder and nodded solemnly, "Biyue did a good job, I'll take a look, if I can, we will open tomorrow, and I've bought all the firecrackers." ”

In fact, the things in the restaurant are complete, and after such a cleaning by Biyue, it is the same as the newly opened, clean and tidy, and there is no problem with opening directly.

Mu Yu asked Xie An to hang the firecrackers at the door, just waiting for the next morning, lifting the red cloth on the plaque, and opening the business.

"Aqing, are you ready to cook tomorrow?" Mu Yu walked to the back kitchen and looked at Ah Qing who was sitting by the stove in a daze, and had a faint bad premonition.

Aqing pouted aggrievedly, "Boss, I don't know what to do tomorrow." ”

"You did a good job for me before."

Aqing shook his head, "No, boss, there are too many dishes, if the guests come, I won't be able to do it." ”

Mu Yu turned his head to look at the size of the restaurant, indeed, there is only Aqing alone in this kitchen, if there are more guests, Aqing Iygeren must be too busy.

"What do you think?"

"If only I was responsible for chopping vegetables, or stir-frying, it would be fine, if I came together, I wouldn't be able to do it alone." Ah Qing lowered his head and clasped his fingers, "When Boss Xie opened the restaurant before, there were five people in the back kitchen. ”

"Only responsible for chopping vegetables?" Mu Yu's eyes lit up, clapped his hands and smiled confidently, "Okay, I thought of a way, you just need to be responsible for cutting vegetables." ”

"I'm only responsible for chopping vegetables? Who's going to cook? Aqing was puzzled.

Mu Yu confidently walked to the door and patted Yingying on the shoulder, "Yingying, I have thought of a good way, you accompany me out to buy something." ”

Biyue held the sackcloth in her hand, and looked at her young lady in shock, they were in the capital, when they were rich, they didn't see the young lady being able to spend money so much, why is it that the more difficult it is, the more the young lady likes to buy and buy?

"Uncle, do you want to persuade Miss, although Miss has money, it's not a way to spend it like this." Biyue was really worried.

Although her own young lady is smart, she never thought that the restaurant opened by the young lady would be successful, and according to the young lady's expenses, they are afraid that they will not be able to support it before it opens.

Who knew that Xie Chongning just drank the tea calmly, glanced at the excited Mu Yu, and chuckled, "It's okay, let her go." ”

Biyue sighed heavily, it's over, I'm afraid this family will have a hard time in the future.

Mu Yu pulled Yingying out to shop again, "Yingying, do you know that the charcoal oven has a stove in the middle, and next to it is a pot, the kind that can cook food in the pot." ”

Yingying shook her head, "I don't know, if you want to buy an oven, we can go to the blacksmith shop and have a look, maybe the people in the blacksmith shop know what the path you are talking about." ”

Hot pot was not popular in the Qing Dynasty, and the owner of the blacksmith shop shook his head when he heard Mu Yu's description, "There is no such thing in the shop, but if you need it, Miss can give me the drawings, and I will customize one for you." ”

"I need it, but it's not just one." Mu Yu picked up the firewood next to the stove and drew it on the ground with a pitch-black charcoal head. "Around this is a pot with a high stove in the middle, and the two are assembled together, and the stove burns to boil the water in the pot."

The blacksmith looked at Mu Yu's scribbled pattern, "Miss, this stove is so well designed, I can make it, can I make it for Miss to see, but Miss said that this stove is not just one?" ”

"yes, I need fifty." When she came out, she made a rough calculation, and all the dining tables in the restaurant were added together, and it was enough to count fifty tables to a full number.

Isn't it too late for Aqing to cook alone, then she is in this Qing Dynasty, taking this opportunity to carry forward the hot pot of Huazhiguo, it is winter, the weather is cold, and it is a good time to eat hot pot.

It's just that there is no hot pot pot now, and it seems that it will not be able to open tomorrow.

"Today, I'll try to make this pot for you, Miss, and I'll send it to your house tomorrow, can you see Kecheng?"

"Then it's going to be a problem for the store."

"Yingying, it seems that we won't be able to open the door tomorrow." Mu Yu left the blacksmith shop with a smile, "I went to ask Aqing today, and Aqing said that he was the only one in the back kitchen, and he couldn't be busy at all." ”

Yingying nodded, expressing her understanding, "When grandpa opened the store before, there were five or six people in the back kitchen, and in such a big restaurant, there was only Aqing alone, so he must be too busy." ”

"So I came up with a way, we can cook hot pot!"

Ying Ying thought about the strange picture that Mu Yu drew on the ground, "What kind of pot is hot pot?" Don't you have to cook hot pot? ”

"Of course, the hot pot is very simple, you only need to cut the vegetables, and the rest of the dishes are brought to the table and let the guests cook their own, which is very convenient." Mu Yu explained with a smile.

"Let the guests cook their own? We're convenient, but will the guests agree? Yingying disagreed.

"This boil, not the one you think, when the pot arrives tomorrow, you will know." Mu Yu smiled and went back, looking at Xie An's vigorous flying body, rushing to the pillars on both sides of the door, and hanging firecrackers, "Xie An, we won't open tomorrow, this firecracker can be taken down temporarily." ”

Biyue held a firecracker in her hand, pursed her lips and looked at her young lady, she had expected it a long time ago, the young lady was not prepared for anything, and it was indeed hasty to prepare for the opening tomorrow.

Xie An just jumped off the pillar, heard Mu Yu's words, nodded silently, and went up again to take down the firecracker.

"Why isn't Madame ready to open, but what is the problem? If Madame has any inconvenience, just let me know. Xie An said.

"There's no inconvenience, it's just that I need to wait for the blacksmith to make the pot I need," Mu Yu had just finished speaking, and saw Xie Chongning walk out of the door.

"I've had enough tossing today, so let's go back and rest early."

Mu Yu looked at Xie Chongning and was silent for a while, "This is going back?" ”

"The restaurant has also been cleaned up, and there will be nothing to do today." Xie Chongning replied.

"But I won't be able to open the store tomorrow." Mu Yu said regretfully. "I specially asked the blacksmith to make a pot, but this pot will be delivered tomorrow."

"Then I'll wait for him to send it, this restaurant has been here, and I can't run, and I'm not in a hurry to open it." Xie Chongning said with a smile, "Let's go back today." ”

Although Mu Yu went back with Xie Chongning, he peeked at Xie Chongning from time to time.

"What's wrong, why do you keep looking at me."

Mu Yu frowned, "Why do I think that you don't value this restaurant at all?" ”

"How?" Xie Chongning looked at her with a smile.

Mu Yu sat up straight and said solemnly, "Now that you no longer have an official position in the capital, that is, you have no source of livelihood, and this restaurant is now our capital to make a living!" ”

"You're right. This restaurant is indeed our capital to make a living. ”

Mu Yu blinked, looking at Xie Chongning's appearance of echoing him, he faintly felt a little weird, but he also said that he didn't invite his feelings, "That's it, I'm afraid the restaurant won't be able to open for the past two days." ”

It seemed that Mu Yu should have a mouthful of more, so Xie Chongning opened Chrysostom and asked, "Isn't it planned to open tomorrow?" But got a problem? ”

Mu Yu was patient and explained to Xie Chongning again, but Xie Chongning kept nodding his head, according to her meaning, and said that you can decide.

If this Xie Chongning doesn't support him, it's fine, but Xie Chongning obviously follows her in everything, Mu Yu feels very strange, "Aren't you afraid that my restaurant is not operating well and will close down before it opens?" ”

"How so? Didn't you say you were going to take care of me? Could it be that you haven't left Beijing for a few days, and you're going to take me hungry? Xie Chongning laughed.

Mu Yu flattened his mouth, "That's not it, don't worry, this restaurant will definitely be able to operate." ”

On the second day, the blacksmith brought the pot as promised, and it looked exactly like Mu Yu expected, and she happily took the tweezers and added charcoal fire to the hot pot.

Xie Chongning, who had been reminded by Mu Yu, was a little more curious about the things in the restaurant, and gathered aside to watch Mu Yu's movements quietly, but this extremely shrewd man now also showed a trace of doubt.

Mu Yu looked at him with curiosity and didn't speak, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "Do you know what this is?" ”

"You say it's a pot." Xie Chongning replied with yesterday's words, but he couldn't understand why the good pot was designed like this.

"That's right, this is indeed a pot, I call it hot pot." Mu Yu filled the burning charcoal fire, and added the bone broth cooked in advance to the pot, the soup was thick and white, and the aroma was tangy.

As the charcoal fire heated, the bone broth gradually became steaming and boiling.

Mu Yu took a small bowl, scooped out a spoonful of bone broth, and put it in a small bowl sprinkled with chopped green onions, "This is the soup base of the hot pot, you taste it first, how does this bone broth taste?" ”

Xie Chongning, as the first person to eat crabs, took a sip of the soup bowl very cooperatively, "The soup is fragrant and tastes good." ”

Ah Qing stood behind Mu Yu and smiled, "Hehe" smiled, "Brother Xie has a vision, this is the bone broth I started cooking yesterday, this is the essence." ”

Mu Yu nodded with satisfaction, and said to Aqing, "Quickly bring the cut mutton, I want them to see what hot pot is." ”

Xie Chongning and Yingying had already sat down, watching Aqing serve a plate of still bright red slices of meat, and then looked at the steaming hot pot, Yingying was the first to realize what Mu Yu's so-called hot pot was.

"Sister Mu Yu wants to pour this mutton directly into the bone broth?" Yingying asked curiously.

Mu Yu nodded, and shook his head again, "You can say that, but that's not exactly what it means. ”

Yingying seemed to understand Fei Understand, "This is the hot pot that Sister Mu Yu said?" ”
