Chapter 114: Eating and not giving money is a big deal
The town is quite rich, and the dishes in the restaurant are not small, but the ingredients are limited, and they are all those things over and over again, and after eating for a long time, I have to get tired of it.
Qian Qianqian and Xiao Mohan went to the largest restaurant in the town, which was divided into two floors, the lower floor was the lobby, and the diners found an empty seat in the lobby to sit down.
And some rich and powerful people usually choose a private room on the second floor.
Qian Qianqian was not a rich man yet, so she grabbed Xiao Mohan, who wanted to go up to the second floor, and found a corner in the lobby to sit down.
The little guy soon came up, smiling.
"What do you want from the two guest officers?"
Qian Qianqian endured the heartache, gritted her teeth and said, "Bring your signature dishes to the same." ”
If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger, and if you don't enter a restaurant, how can you afford to open a hot pot restaurant.
As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and finding out the situation of the restaurant in the town can Qian Qianqian judge how to price and position his hot pot restaurant.
Qian Qianqian's expression of gritting her teeth fell on the eyes of the little girl, which was extremely hideous. Isn't Mo a bully eater?
Looking at her clothes again, she is not gorgeous, and the manhood next to her is extraordinary, and the clothes are also casual.
The little servant was vigilant and reminded politely: "Guest officer, there are more than a dozen signature dishes in our restaurant, and the two of you are afraid that you will not be able to finish them?" ”
Not being able to eat is a trivial matter, and not giving money after eating is a big thing.
Xiao Mohan saw through the little girl's worries at a glance, took out a silver ingot from his arms, and put it on the table: "Do as she says." ”
The little girl's eyes lit up, and he nodded and left busily.
"Tsk, see the money and open your eyes."
Qian Qianqian took a sip of tea, not caring about the little girl's suspicion at all, she looked around.
There were a lot of diners around, mostly a few men gathered together, there were a few appetizers on the table, a few people were talking about wine, and peanuts were stuffed into their mouths one by one.
It's not like you're here to enjoy food, it's like you're looking for a place to meet up with friends.
As soon as the dish came up, Qian Qianqian understood why a plate of peanuts was particularly popular.
This dish is extremely light.
Xiao Guoguo has a clean and peaceful style, and literati and scholars, dignitaries and nobles also advocate lightness, so that the dishes in the restaurant are also lighter, and it seems that the lighter they are, the more they can show their taste.
Qian Qianqian understands that her hot pot restaurant is afraid that it will be difficult to echo the public.
It's not that it doesn't meet the taste of the public, but it can't hold up the public's face.
"If I made something really spicy, would anyone love it?"
Xiao Mohan was well-informed, Qian Qianqian put a piece of ice and snow radish in his mouth, and humbly asked.
Xiao Mohan is used to eating big fish and meat, and he has also eaten wild grass and tree roots, so he is not particular about eating.
But he also has a slight understanding of Xiao Guo's atmosphere, so he said realistically: "There are many people who love to eat, but there are not many people who can eat." ”
Face is very important.
"Then there's no problem." Qian Qianqian smiled proudly, as long as he said 'there are many people who love to eat', her worries will be gone.
Hot pot, there is clear soup, there is also spicy soup.
Since everyone wants to eat light food on the face, and spicy food on the taste, then her whole mandarin duck pot can solve all the problems.
Xiao Mohan didn't ask her for details, but he knew that she must have tossed something new.
After tasting the restaurant's signature dishes, Qian Qianqian came out and went to find the house to buy.
Finally, after walking two or three streets, I finally found a yard to sell in an alley at the northeast end of the town.
The courtyard is not small, a main house, a kitchen, a small ancestral hall, and there are two rows of bedrooms on the left and right of the main house, a total of six rooms.
Qian Qianqian slowly began to calculate: "My mother and the fifth brother live in one room, the other three brothers and sisters share one room, I will have one, and I will prepare another room for you, coincidentally, I just happened to live." ”
"You've got it for me, too?" Xiao Mohan's heart moved, and his eyes darkened.
Qian Qianqian didn't notice it, she was still in the joy of buying a new house, and when she thought of the silver, she said dejectedly: "But such a big yard costs a lot of silver......
Xiao Mohan patiently asked again: "You also prepared a room for me?" ”
Qian Qianqian raised her head violently, only then did she realize what she had just said.
Didn't she indirectly classify Xiao Mohan as her own family? But the words are all spoken, and not admitting it makes her even more weak-hearted.
Qian Qianqian admitted stubbornly, with an embarrassed smile on her face: "The general only knows us here, so I naturally have to plan for the general." ”
Xiao Mohan glanced at her: "You don't need to worry about the silver, since I have a share in this courtyard, I will naturally contribute." ”
When it came to silver, Qian Qianqian's intuition was not good, and sure enough, Xiao Mohan turned around and gave the seller a silver ticket and paid the money.
The seller couldn't stop smiling, it is not easy to be hungry when he meets a cheerful person, so he immediately took out the title deed, and then just pressed a handprint.
But the contract was placed in front of Qian Qianqian, but Qian Qianqian couldn't do it.
and this court three hundred and fifty taels of silver.
Gritting her teeth, she can also take out the silver, but the hot pot restaurant will have no funds.
It's rare to meet a house you like, even if you delay the opening of a hot pot restaurant, Qian Qianqian is willing, it's better than using Xiao Mohan's money to buy a yard for your home.
Qian Qianqian took out the silver ticket, plus some small pieces of silver, and finally made up three hundred and fifty taels of silver.
"Uncle, this money is for you, you can return the silver ticket to him."
The uncle was stunned, and it took a while for him to understand.
These two are not a small couple, but they look really compatible.
The uncle returned the silver ticket to Xiao Mohan according to Qian Qianqian's words, and handed over the house deed and land deed to Qian Qianqian, and left.
Qian Qianqian was a little uncomfortable with Xiao Mohan's sullen gaze, and it was normal for him to be unhappy when he refuted his face, but he saved the silver for him.
Qian Qianqian tugged at Xiao Mohan's cuffs: "General, seeing that I have become a poor person who can't afford to eat after I buy a yard, I don't know if the general can help me?" ”
Xiao Mohan saw that there was still a breath in his heart because of her alienation, and when he saw her pull on his sleeve, he said in his heart that this girl was so bold, but she was reluctant to move away.
He said with a dark face: "Aren't you the most capable, and you still need my help?" ”
The words were really harsh, Qian Qianqian felt that she was weak-hearted, so she weakly brought up the matter of the hot pot restaurant: "Buying a yard is a small head, and I am going to open a hot pot restaurant is the big one, and General Lao has helped." ”
"Oh?" Xiao Mohan became interested, and his dark eyes narrowed: "Tell me what you think." ”
The two looked at the courtyard while talking about the hot pot restaurant.
"I think the general can put the money in my hot pot restaurant, and when the hot pot restaurant makes a profit, I will share it with the general, what do you think?"
Xiao Mohan didn't care about that bit of silver, and he wasn't interested in making money, but as long as he could have a little contact with Qian Qianqian, he would be happy to see it.
Thinking that the connection between the two of them was deeper, Xiao Mohan was in a good mood, and naturally took Qian Qianqian's hand: "Since you want to do it, just do it, and pay me back after you make money." ”
Qian Qianqian's hand shrank back, but Xiao Mohan had a lot of strength, she struggled hard, so he came back to look at her, and at this glance, Qian Qianqian instantly lost her strength, so she could only let Xiao Mohan do nothing.
The shop of the hot pot restaurant was found by Xiao Mohan, and it was a lively market, with a lot of people coming and going, and even as long as it was a person in this town, they had to pass by here at least once a day.
Qian Qianqian liked it at a glance.
Although the decoration inside is not good, this place is really good, as long as her things are delicious and the price is fair, she is definitely not afraid that the business will not be able to do it.
But it's not enough to have a store, there is also a lack of pots for mandarin duck pots, and the most important hot pot base.
Qian Qianqian took Xiao Mohan to buy a lot of chili peppers and spices, returned to the village, and began to make hot pot bases.
The hot pot base is first boiled into lard, then fried with chives, ginger, garlic and other seasonings until golden brown, removed, and added spices, peppercorns, chili peppers and other condiments.
The sound of sizzling and cheering sounded in the kitchen for a whole night, and there was a strong fragrance from time to time, the Qian family didn't sleep well, and even Xiao Mohan accompanied Qian Qianqian for a whole day.
When I woke up the next day, the hot pot base had already congealed into lumps, and the usable hot pot base was made like this.
The next step is a mandarin duck pot and a small stove.
Qian Qianqian found a craftsman who struck iron, put out his design drawings, and deliberately emphasized: "The iron piece in the middle of this pot must be cast firmly, and it must not leak." ”
It was the first time for the craftsman to see such a design, and he was so excited that he agreed.
"But girl, you have to pay me the deposit first."
After all, the more uncommon things are, if she suddenly doesn't want them, the more he can't sell them in his hands.
Artisans can't afford to take the risk.
Qian Qianqian also understood this truth: "Then I'll pay one or two pieces of silver first, you make one first, and if you do well, I'll ask for another thirty." ”
Tsk, it's still a big business.
The craftsman could not suppress the ecstasy on his face, but after Qian Qianqian left, he was a little suspicious.
What does she want so many pots for? Isn't he kidding? That's it, anyway, the deposit has been collected, and he won't lose anything.
When the craftsman thought about it, his ups and downs stabilized and he began to make an iron pot.
Here, Qian Qianqian began to prepare for other matters.
The first is to renovate and renovate the hot pot restaurant.
This shop was originally a shop that sold clothes, but the business was sluggish, and the money earned couldn't even pay the rent, so it closed the store and transferred the store to Xiao Mohan.
But there are many people in this shop, and Qian Qianqian knows that if it weren't for Xiao Mohan, she would definitely not be able to take it.
Qian Qianqian stopped the pen that was designing the decoration drawing, suddenly raised her head, and said to Xiao Mohan, who was standing in front of the window and reading the military book: "This time, thank you very much." ”
"You and I don't have to say thank you." Xiao Mohan put down the military book, and suddenly said seriously: "If you really want to thank you, it is better to embroider a purse for me." ”
Xiao Mohan heard that women would always embroider purses, send brocade handkerchiefs, and sew socks for their beloved men......
But she ...... Xiao Mohan was stunned, and he didn't know if she was stupid or didn't have that heart, and she never gave him these things.
After not seeing her agree for a long time, Xiao Mohan approached Qian Qianqian, his long eyebrows flew obliquely into his sideburns, and asked her lightly: "Have you ever embroidered purses for other men?" ”
Qian Qianqian, who was still thinking about whether it was too active to send a man's purse, pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "Yes." ”
Suddenly, a cold incarnation struck, and Xiao Mohan's whole body exuded an unpleasant aura.
