Chapter 52: Opening (Part II)
With the unveiling of Master Leonard, Xiao Yi's store finally revealed its true face, and to everyone's surprise, this three-storey and huge store turned out to be a restaurant. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Except for the presidents of the 'Clover' Chamber of Commerce, Given, and Leonard, who were quite calm, the expressions on the faces of the others were very exciting. Xiao Yi took over the kitchen of Clover's restaurant through Fowler, and Given, as a big boss, of course knew about it, so he was one of the few outsiders who knew the true purpose of Xiao Yi's shop, and Leonard's age and knowledge made him more calm than ordinary people, and as an alchemist, he was basically limited to ceremonial contact with foreign objects outside his profession, plus he was only interested in Xiao Yi and himself, and as for the others, he would not have much reaction.
As for the other people who know Xiao Yi's identity as an alchemist, they think that Xiao Yi is overkill, and if he really opens a magic prop shop, he doesn't know that it will be much more promising than this restaurant, and those who don't know Xiao Yi's identity as an alchemist simply think that he is making a big fuss and opening such a high-standard restaurant in Xiacheng District, and the final result will probably be lost.
Of course, no matter what the idea is, Xiao Yi's restaurant is officially opened, and according to the custom, at the opening ceremony, the owner or the entrusted shopkeeper must announce the opening of the door to welcome customers, so Xiao Yi took this responsibility as a deserved.
First of all, I would like to introduce myself, I am Xiao Yi, the owner of this store, and I would like to express my sincerest thanks to you for coming to the venue today. ”
Said to the crowd to bow a bow, this move won the favor of many people, the background of opening the door to welcome customers to do business is mixed, there are polite and domineering, at least the boss in front of him seems to be a reasonable person, plus it has been rumored that this boss is a very strong background and the strong connections shown on the scene today, it is even more rare to be able to do this.
"As a token of my warm appreciation, I would like to announce that everyone will only have to pay half of what they spend in the restaurant for a whole week from today......
As soon as the preferential policy came out, it immediately caused a commotion from the crowd present, although they may not understand the meaning of 'half-price reward', but Xiao Yi explained it very clearly in the most direct words, and this discount is not necessarily the last in the history of the opening of restaurants in the imperial capital, but at least it is unprecedented.
“...... However, due to the opening of the restaurant for the first time today, there are too many people to entertain one by one, so only a limited number of guests can be received, so if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please do a lot of Haihan!"
There was not much reaction from the crowd present to this situation, after all, this is completely normal when a restaurant has just opened, the key is who can be lucky enough to grab the top spot today, don't forget that there are gifts for today's meal. Saying that, Xiao Yi raised his hand and showed the prize redemption stamp that had caused a lot of commotion below.
"There may be some people present who have already got this stamp, so today the store can only receive guests with invitations and this stamp, as for other friends present today can only say sorry, there will be a commemorative gift outside the store can be received at will, if you are interested, you are also welcome to visit after today, everyone please do it!"
After Xiao Yi's notice was announced, the people present were arrogant with stamps, and those who did not have stamps only laughed and scolded their companions and then began to divert them, and occasionally a few who were not satisfied with this policy were complaining, but they did not cause too many waves.
And this is all thanks to Xiao Yi's preparation in place, he asked Xiao Jamie to send out nearly more than 2,000 stamps, of course, it is still not enough for the crowd gathered at the scene, but for a newly opened restaurant, receiving 2,000 people on the first day plus specially invited VIPs is already a very difficult task; in addition, Xiao Yi's humility and generosity make the guests present very useful, even those who can't enter have gifts to take, what else can you blame; the last one is not Xiao Yi's intention, but it is the most effective measure to calm dissatisfaction, that is, the people on the special guest list invited by Xiao Yi are heavy enough, coupled with the rumors that have been speculating about Xiao Yi's identity and background, have made it extremely unwise to choose to mess around in public because he didn't catch up with the trivial matter of experiencing the meal on the first day.
As Xiao Yi led the VIP team to enter first, the crowd began to pour into the restaurant, and Xiao Yi led the team straight to the VIP area opened up on the second floor, directly avoiding the embarrassing situation of crowding downstairs with the large army.
From walking up the stairs and aisles to entering the dining area to take their seats, this group of guests of unusual status has been looking at everything around them.
Originally, there were a considerable number of people who were skeptical and slightly disappointed, because many of these people were relationships that Xiao Yi knew when he was selling wands in the 'Treasure Pavilion' that day, and the reason why these people were willing to spend energy to befriend Xiao Yi, a young man of unknown origin, was entirely because of his identity as an alchemy master and the needs and attention of his own industry, and after today's applause, he found that he had just opened a restaurant, and it was also a restaurant in Xiacheng!
It's not that all of them haven't seen the dirt buns in the world, what kind of good places have they not visited, what kind of good things have not been eaten, and now not only have they not seen the magic prop shop they expected before, but they also have to endure a decent meal.
How can you conclude that you are not satisfied if you haven't eaten yet?
Please! A proprietor who spends a lot of money to open a high-end restaurant in a civilian area, can you expect him to be very expert! And even if you can recruit good chefs, and look at the identities of these people, I am afraid that most of the people present at the royal court banquets held by the king of the empire have attended at least a few times! No matter how good this thing is, it can be heavens better!
It's just that it is precisely because they have seen the world, this way down has really changed a lot: first of all, the interior and decoration style of the restaurant is very distinctive, very simple style and there are not too many additional decorations, but it can give people a feeling of thick atmosphere, this contradictory experience did not bother them for long to see the doorway, the key is the decoration of the materials and handwork, according to the president of the three chambers of commerce, many of the renovation projects in the store are from the hands of the craftsmen of the store under their command. Originally, my own craftsmanship was not exquisite, but now after looking at the real thing, it has an effect beyond my expectations, as if my own craftsman has completed the most outstanding work in his life here, which makes several presidents look familiar and unfamiliar.
In addition, some rare materials appear here in turn as if they don't need money, not to mention the building materials such as thorn wood, acacia, citrine, Shengneng crystalline stone, etc., and the decorative green plants placed in the restaurant are all rare species, such as the lotus leaf dwarf tree that can repel mosquitoes, flies and insects, the calming flower that can emit a calming and calming fragrance, and even the toilet is placed with a strange fragrance of black water orchid.
This precious plant, which would be placed in a greenhouse in any rich and noble house, and carefully tended by a special person, is casually placed within reach, and even people like them feel that it is too extravagant. But they really can't say anything, because when you look at it, these things are just like that, but no one really uses them like consumables in their lives because of their preciousness.
However, it is rare to see these treasures shed their noble skin, ordinary as a pot of weeds, what is called low-key luxury, this shop has used practical examples to solve the problem.
There is a strange tin box in each of the four corners of the room, and those with a background in the magic profession can already feel the fluctuations of magic patterns from the inside, and have already asked the learned Master Leonard, and the reply should be a device that acts similarly to a fireplace in winter and an ice basin in summer to regulate the temperature of the room.
The restaurant with its unusual atmosphere inside and outside may really be able to bring a different experience! With the gradual change of mentality, the guests here are waiting for the restaurant's service.
"Distinguished guests, welcome to 'Happy Life'! Here is a selection of menus specially prepared for you today, please choose!" Harpy, wearing a white slim-fitting shirt and a black vest, looked clean and neat, and politely came to the table where Master Leonard was seated, and distributed the menu in his hand to everyone at the table.
