Chapter 100: Thriving

In the private room on the third floor, Qin Huan just went in and saw the dining table, many upholstered sofa-like seats next to it, a mahjong table on the right hand, and two other tables, one with a stack of cards and the other with a stack of pokers. Although the furnishings of the rooms are not so exquisite, they make up for it all.

"Funds are limited, and everyone will be settled." Ruxu touched his nose.

"Brother Xu, you're too comfortable." Qin Huan sat on the cushion next to him, squinting in comfort.

Ruxu let the kitchen serve the signature dishes, everyone tasted it and felt novel, especially mapo tofu and sweet and spicy pork ribs, these two spicy tastes were not available before, and everyone was full of praise after eating them.

Ruxu smiled and explained to everyone one by one. Then everyone sat down and started to play mahjong, Qin Huan had just learned a little bit of fur, but he began to teach Xi Ming to play first, Ruxu stood on Yu Yu's side to explain the game to him, and gave him instructions.

At this time, Yulu brought tea to everyone, and Jin Feng brought melons and fruits snacks to everyone, and put them on the small table in everyone's hands one by one.

"Hey, you came just in time, we happen to be short of a person to fight the landlord." Ruxu smiled.

"Landlord? Do you mean Su Rong? Jin Feng laughed," Dou Surong ...... I like it, I'm coming! ”

Ruxu fought with Jin Feng Yulu at the table over there, and during this period, she found that Yulu was always absent-minded and kept glancing at Hua Yulou.

So she cleared her throat and asked, "How many games has Hua Yulou lost?" ”

"He didn't win a start." Qin Huan smiled gloatingly.

Ruxu said to Jin Feng and Yulu again, "Which of you will help me go to see Brother Yulou, he said to invite me to drink these days, and I am afraid that he will lose without any clothes left, so it will not be easy to do." ”

Jin Feng said angrily, "Lao Tzu wants to fight Su Rong, Lao Tzu will not go!" ”

Yulu hesitated for a while, put down the poker in her hand, and went to Hua Yulou's side.

Ruxu and Jin Feng glanced at each other, the two secretly high-fived, and then put away the poker, and the two sat on the sofa and drank tea. Only then did Yulu realize that she had been fooled, and her face was cold.

"Huh? How do I find this tea so familiar? Su Rong asked.

"Aren't you familiar with my Qin family's tea? Every day I drink tea. Qin Huan said in disgust.

"After seeing Brother Xu, he is really generous, and the tea of Qin Yezi's family is absolutely expensive." Su Rong played a card and went out.

"I got 10% of the pepper field, more than 20,000 taels of silver. Not to mention that the gold is not exchanged for tea for one year, even two years is no problem. Qin Huan said with a smile.

"He also asked me to make 300 sets of cutlery, look at the ornaments in this room, which ones are not made by my manufacturing factory?" Yu Yu shook his head.

"Hey, you have such a good brain, why don't you give me an idea. In the past few months, my family's tea has not been selling well in Kyoto. Qin Huan pursed his lips and said.

"I'll give you an idea." Ruxu swallowed the orange in his mouth and said, "You add a small spoon to the tea caddy, it is useful to keep it." ”

"Huh? Spoonful? What can it be used for? Qin Huan pointed to Xi Mingxian's card, "Brother Xi, play this." ”

"You don't understand this, open the tea can, pick up the spoon and scoop it out, this is a coherent action. Everyone will find it convenient to add a spoon, and there is no need to take a lot of effort to prepare, which is called ...... Humanized. Ruxu said with a smile.

"Humanized ......" Yu Yu read silently, then looked up at Ruxu again, "That's right." ”

"By the way, I heard that Brother Yu knows the river workers in the state capital?" Ruxu suddenly remembered an important thing.

"Well, how?" Yu Yu asked.

"I need to meet with the governors and the river workers of the state and discuss with them some canal opening. After all, canal digging is a river project, which is within the scope of the government's responsibility, and choosing a road to open a canal is not my forte, and I need their help. "As promised.

"Okay, I'll make a note of this, go back and make a lot of money for you." Yu Yu said.

Ruxu nodded.

"I also said that Brother Xu is omnipotent, he can grow chili peppers, open a restaurant, build mahjong, and direct a drama. The most important thing is that I can still drink, and I am not drunk in a thousand cups! Xi Ming smiled first, "I didn't expect that there would be something you wouldn't." ”

"Hahaha, Brother Xi has promoted me, I'm just a little smart." Ruxu shook off the fan, "Speaking of which, I have a reluctant request to ask Brother Xi for help." ”

"Brother Xu has anything to say, just say it." Xi Ming said arrogantly, "Hahaha, I'm nonsense!" ”

When he saw it, he grinned and showed his good-looking teeth, "The younger brother wants to ask Brother Xi to change the title of a poem for us, and also call me a bit literati in this ugly restaurant." ”

"Good!" Xi Ming agreed first, and asked someone to send pen and ink as promised.

Everyone gathered around Xi Mingxian to watch him inscribe poems.

Gold does not change

It's Autumn Friends Day. Flower appearance, happy feast.

The flames are just facing the sun. Red pointed head, green clothes.

The torrent is monstrous and blocks the jade pot. The ice heart is there, and it is difficult to be peaceful.

Seven clever and exquisite golden gatherings. Unswerving, Dan heart red.

Yu Yu said loudly, "What a 'Bing Xin is here, it is difficult to be peaceful', and a good 'Unswerving Ambition, Dan Heart Chi'!" ”

Ruxu said with a smile, "Thank you Brother Xi for your compliment, the little brother is ashamed." ”

"You deserve it." Xi Ming looked at Ruxu first and said with a smile.

So he immediately ordered someone to hang it in the hall.

The next day, Ruxu came to the restaurant, and the elderly shopkeeper Shen said to Ruxu with a sad face, "Boss Jin, our restaurant is about forty percent less customers today." ”

"It's a little better than I expected...... Ru Xu patted him on the shoulder, "Tomorrow will be even worse, you can resist it." ”

With that, he shrugged his shoulders and went to the back kitchen.

On the third day, I came around again, and there were only 20% of customers in the restaurant.

"Got the books? Ah, do you know what Boss Jin told me yesterday? He said business would be worse today, and sure enough, you see, that's all there is to it today. But Boss Jin is not in a hurry, it's useless for us to be in a hurry......" Shopkeeper Shen turned his back to the counter, sweeping the cabinet behind him with a feather duster.

Ruxu looked at the account books on the counter, reached out and knocked on the counter, "I'm gone!" ”

Ruxu returned home and looked at his plan. Things are better than she expected now, but it's time to strike while the iron is hot and move on to the second step of the promotion plan.

After another day, she asked everyone to take out all the pickled and sour and sour chicken feet in the cellar, and took some chili powder and chili sauce.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the business of the restaurant is not good, from today onwards, everyone will work in groups of four to set up stalls on the street to sell pickled acid." I don't know where to get seven or eight carts. Although everyone complained bitterly, they still received the order.

She wants everyone to go to the street to promote chili peppers, whether it is pickled sour or chili sauce, you can try it for free, three copper plates and a small bag of chili powder. Each group has a person who is familiar with the chili sauce and is responsible for educating passers-by about how to make the chili sauce and giving away a dozen chili peppers to the guests for free.

In the past few days, the results of Zhao Pobai's research on chili peppers have also come out. At his behalf, he hung a wooden sign at the door of the pharmacy to promote the medicinal value of chili peppers, and then placed a bag of chili peppers on his counter for free pick-up by patients in need.

At the same time, Yu Yu's mahjong began to be mass-produced, and everyone in the merchant gang had a pair. Not to mention the disciples of rich and noble families, they ordered several pairs in one family.

Mahjong became popular in Qingchuan, and it also came with a number of cards. Compared with mahjong, the honor card is more convenient to carry, and when you go out on weekdays, you can bring a pair on your body, and you will be bored to use it for pastime with others.

Among teenagers, poker is popular. The main way to play poker is currently to fight the landlord, because the landlord is a relatively simple card game. But as predicted, it won't be long before someone creates a new way to play, after all, the wisdom of the vast number of people is immeasurable.

Ruxu told Yu Yu that each deck of cards should be printed with the trademark of Golden Pepper. She knew that the business of the restaurant would get better sooner or later, but it was only a matter of time.

During this period, there was one thing that surprised Ru Xu the most. Yu Yu told her that chili powder had reached Kyoto, and that Kyoto's dignitaries were scrambling to buy it.

Dried chili peppers are easy to store, and chili powder can also be stored for a long time, so Xu Xu had people grind a lot of chili powder and hand it over to Yu Yu to send to Kyoto for sale.

In the following days, Ruxu was bored at home, so she instructed Yulu to draw a badminton design for her, asked someone to create a badminton racket for herself, and also found a vacant land in the backyard of Guiling Mansion and set up a badminton court. Every day, I played badminton with my disciples and maids, and took the whole house to run and exercise together.

Unexpectedly, this badminton sport became inexplicably popular.

"Why do you have so many good ideas in your head?" Yu Yu couldn't help but ask her, recently he was busy making mahjong and name cards for her, and now he was "forced" to make badminton.

"Huh?" Ruxu was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Because I am the crystallization of 5,000 years of Chinese wisdom." ”

But what really ushered in a new round of peak for the restaurant was the drama before.

Qionglou's drama has been staged once, and the first time was not very ideal. Because the venue chosen was too noisy, I couldn't hear what the actors said. So for the second time, Hua Yulou carefully selected a place, and after trying it a few times, it was staged again.

The effect was surprisingly good. The audience did not expect that they could watch the entire "Liang Zhu" in just one and a half hours, if they listened to the play and watched it scene by scene, it would take about four hours to watch the entire story of Liang Zhu.

And this way of performing is more natural, the makeup does not need to be too thick, and the costumes are relatively light. Actors can also play to their heart's content, integrate themselves into the role, combine art and self and then express themselves.

At the curtain call, the two protagonists who played Zhu Yingtai and Liang Shanbo thanked Ruxu and Huayulou on stage, and by the way, they also helped Ruxu promote a wave of restaurants and spicy culture.

This drama was unexpectedly rumored by everyone to be "Xu Opera".

At this point, Jin Buchang Restaurant officially entered the public eye and became popular overnight. When Ruxu heard this, he hurriedly discussed with Hua Yulou and asked these two protagonists to be the spokespersons of his restaurant.

"Yes, but you have to help me." Huayu Corridor.

"What can I help you?" If you don't know.

"Help me pursue Gyokuro." Hua Yulou said, looking very annoyed.

"Poof......" Ruxu just took a sip of tea and immediately squirted out.
