Chapter 101: The Problem of Face
In the evening, a group of six people gathered in the Zuixian Building. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This drunken immortal building is the largest restaurant in Jiangcheng, and it is also the largest restaurant chain industry in Chu State, with all kinds of dishes, and the wine is from the hands of famous artists, so this consumption is naturally not something that ordinary people can afford.
Everyone chooses this restaurant, naturally under the banner of eating poor Li Rong, Li Rong can't laugh or cry about this, although the Li family is big, but only when negotiating major business, will come to Zuixianlou to invite guests, usually it is absolutely not allowed.
Fortunately, Li Rong's own small treasury is quite rich, and he doesn't have to ask his family for money.
"I've eaten this drunken immortal building a few times, but it's all in the hall, Li Rong has a treat today, so I have to go to the private room. ”
Several people stood at the door of the Drunken Immortal Tower, and Qiu Da said.
"As it should be. The crowd echoed in unison.
Li Rong was not ambiguous, and led everyone into the Drunken Immortal Tower.
"A few guest officers, what do you want to eat today?" A new chef has recently arrived in our restaurant......" As soon as he entered the door, a guy greeted him, introducing the characteristics of the restaurant and promoting his new dishes.
"Xiao Er, take everything you just said. Before Li Rong could speak, Qiu Fang had already made a decision.
"If you don't speak, no one will die for you?" Li Rong glared at him angrily, and then said to Xiao Er: "Do as he says." ”
"Okay, a few distinguished guests, please come to the private room on the third floor!" Xiao Er's eyes lit up, knowing that it was a big customer coming, he hurriedly raised his hand and led everyone upstairs.
There are six floors in total, the first floor is mainly for receiving ordinary people and peddlers and pawns; the second floor is a private room for entertaining literati and scholars, in fact, it is just separated by a baffle and a screen; the private room on the third floor is a separate room, and the environment is relatively private; the decoration of the private room on the fourth floor is more luxurious, used to entertain wealthy merchants; the fifth floor is used to entertain officials and nobles; as for the sixth floor, only the imperial relatives can enter.
Xiao Er led the six people to the third floor, first judging that the six people were not short of money, and then determining their needs based on the words and demeanor of the six people.
I have to say that this is also a science.
Everyone followed Xiao Er upstairs, and when he was on the second floor, Li Rong suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, and looked at the figure, but it was a young woman who was as beautiful as a flower, wearing a white dress, covering her face with a light veil, and she lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking.
Across from her sat a man, talking something earnestly, oblivious to the woman's absent-mindedness.
Li Rong glanced at the man and frowned.
"Lu Jiucun!"
The enemy was very red when he saw him, the person who killed the fool Rong at the beginning, Li Yang or the mastermind, but the person who really shot it was Lu Jiucun!
Now Li Yang has fallen off the cliff, life and death are uncertain, but Lu Jiucun is still living freely.
"Oh, let you live for two more days, and before I go to the provincial capital, I will take your dog's life. Li Rong pressed the idea of killing Lu Jiucun on the spot and smiled coldly.
"Li Rong, why don't you leave? What are you looking at?" Li Wushuang behind him suddenly found that Li Rong had stopped, and couldn't help but ask, and then looked in the direction where Li Rong's eyes were.
"It's nothing, I just feel that the woman over there is a little familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere. Li Rong smiled.
Li Wushuang glanced at the woman in white, snorted, and said, "Do you feel familiar if it's a beauty?" ”
This obviously delicious remark made Li Rong feel embarrassed, touched his nose and changed the topic: "Wushuang, what do you like to eat, order more for a while, don't be polite to me." ”
Li Wushuang glanced at him and said, "Do you treat me as a pig, and order more, and order you to eat?"
"......" Li Rong suddenly felt that he and Li Wushuang had nothing to say, and since the small talk that night, there was a lot of embarrassment between the two inexplicably.
Went up to the third floor noisily, and the woman in white here felt something, frowned and looked here, and happened to see Li Rong's back, and suddenly felt a little familiar.
"Cher, what's wrong? Is the dish not to your liking? I'll let them withdraw and redo it. Lu Jiucun noticed the change in the woman's expression and hurriedly asked.
The woman shook her head, swept away the wisps in her heart, and said, "Those people were a little noisy just now. ”
Lu Jiucun's expression changed and said: "It's my negligence, it's really too noisy here, Xue'er, you wait a while, I'll change to the upstairs private room, there will be no one to disturb there." ”
The woman did not object, took a sip of the tea in the cup, and continued to recall the slightly familiar back just now.
Seeing that the woman didn't speak, Lu Jiucun immediately called Xiao Er and asked to go to the private room on the third floor for dinner.
Going up to the third floor to eat is nothing more than adding some silver coins to do it, but Xiao Er glanced at the two of them with some embarrassment, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, two guest officers, the private rooms on the third floor are full, why don't you go up to the private rooms on the fourth floor?"
It's actually hard to say, from the third floor to the fourth floor, the price is more than doubled.
Lu Jiucun's face changed at that time, and he said angrily: "The fourth floor? This number is too unlucky, you let us go to the fourth floor, do you want to curse us to death?"
Lu Jiucun doesn't care about a few dollars, but he is very sensitive to this kind of thing, and he hates the number four the most in his life.
Xiao Er also has a bitter face, the third floor is full, and the fifth floor can only go up to the official master, except for the fourth floor, there is really no other private room to arrange these two guest officers.
"What floor did the group of people go up just now?" Lu Jiucun saw that Xiao Er was really embarrassed, his heart moved, and he suddenly asked.
Xiao Erhu glanced at Lu Jiucun suspiciously, but he didn't think much about it, and replied, "Third floor." ”
Lu Jiucun slapped the table and said to Xiao Er: "Knock them out, we want that private room." ”
"This ......" Xiao Er became more and more embarrassed, how could there be a reason for a restaurant business to drive customers out.
"What? Are you afraid that I won't be able to pay the money?" Lu Jiucun slapped the table again, and there were stacks of silver tickets on top of each other, with a minimum face value of one hundred taels!
Xiao Er was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Guest officer, the small one doesn't mean that, it's just that we are in the restaurant business, and there is no reason to drive the guests out, if you have to change with them, I can help you ask them what they mean." ”
"Hmph, why ask them, I'll go there in person, I want to see, in this river city, who dares not to give me Lu Jiucun's face!" Lu Jiucun snorted coldly and said.
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Er over there was taken aback again, and he didn't expect that the generous boy in front of him turned out to be the famous Lu Danshi in Jiangcheng, and he panicked all of a sudden.
Seeing that Lu Jiucun insisted on going up to the third floor, Xiao Er didn't dare to stop him, so he hurriedly ran downstairs and went to find the shopkeeper to solve the matter.
"Xue'er, you'll be here for a while, I'll come when I go. Lu Jiucun said to the woman.
The woman frowned and said, "Forget it, don't make trouble for the restaurant." ”
Lu Jiucun turned his face blank, and said: "It's not a question of trouble or not, I've already said it, it's about my Lu Jiucun's face, I have to go, besides, in this Jiangcheng, no one dares not to give me Lu Jiucun's face." ”
When the woman saw that he insisted, she stopped caring and drank tea by herself.
Lu Jiucun was proud in his heart, thinking that the woman agreed with his words, so he carried his hands behind his back and went upstairs with his toes high.
