More than a dozen young men were dressed in red short jackets and coats, embroidered with three eye-catching yellow characters of Wangfu Ji on their chests, neatly lined up in two rows, and bowed down when the gate was opened.

Looking at the inside of the store, the festive red color is the mainstay, and although the decoration is not as luxurious as the big restaurant, it is simple and atmospheric, revealing a heroic atmosphere.

There was originally a row of tables in the depths of the store, which has been removed and replaced by a huge bluestone screen, which is carved with a map of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, the sun, the moon, mountains and rivers, birds and beasts, all-encompassing.

There is also a couplet on the bluestone screen, "The fire is fixed, and the pot melts the world." ”

Majestic.

In front of the bluestone screen, there is also a makeshift platform covered with yellow cloth.

Zhang Fugui ripped off the red cloth on the signboard in front of the door.

Five big bronzing characters first broke into view, "Wangfu Ji hot pot." ”

And at the bottom right of the plaque, it is marked "No. 1 Store".

At the same time, Gu Weidao came with a group of county school students.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please inside." Zhang Fugui laughed and stretched out his hand towards the store.

Gu Weidao and the county school students led the way to the store, and the other people around looked at each other, and then followed in.

"Boss Zhang, what is hot pot!?"

"yes, I've never heard of it."

……

Finally, someone couldn't help it and asked.

Li Changan, who had trained in advance, enthusiastically and skillfully led everyone to sit down.

Gu Weidao and eighteen county school students were scattered into five tables and sat around the platform.

Zhang Fugui did not explain directly, "Everyone, the first thing today is to finish the major events of the past few days, I believe everyone can't wait." ”

"As for the hot pot, Gu Jiaoyu and the county students will show it to everyone."

As he spoke, a little guy ran over with five red oil brass hot pots in small steps.

Everyone's eyes were focused on these five strange-shaped cauldrons.

Just this small pot feels like something.

Brass conducts heat quickly and soon begins to gurgle and bubble.

A fragrant, numb and spicy smell spreads.

"Gollum ......"

A clear swallowing voice sounded, and a man close to Gu Jiaoyu's table smiled embarrassedly around, "Boss Zhang, is this a hot pot?" ”

"Yes, this is hot pot." Zhang Fugui said with a smile.

The lobby was already full of people, and there were people poking their heads out the door to look in.

The fragrance is overflowing, and many people can't help but smack their lips.

"What does this smell like? Why do you feel drooling when you smell it? ”

"I thought it was my own problem, and so did you?"

"It's weird, I don't eat much in the first place, but when I smell it, why do I get hungry?"

……

There was whispering everywhere.

There is no need for Zhang Fugui to explain again, the five hot pots were brought out, and they smelled the fragrance again, and everyone understood.

Gu Weidao put down the first chopsticks, and the rest of the county school students began to use chopsticks.

This move of chopsticks is terrible, everyone originally just smelled the taste and wanted to taste it.

But now that I look at it, even the county school students and Gu Jiaoyu eat regardless of their manners, who can bear it?

The gluttonous worm was directly hooked out.

Is hot pot really that good?

One by one, they all stretched their necks and looked at the county school students who were already in full swing.

Shopkeeper Xie, who was sitting on the edge of the table, frowned, and there was a faint uneasiness in his heart, as if something was wrong.

"What is hot pot? How come you've never heard of it? ”

Shopkeeper Xie looked at the corner of the table, and wrote out how delicious the hot pot was.

What tripe should be seven up and eight down, it is better to eat hot pot with iced sour plum soup, and there are various pot base introductions.

A dish that has never appeared before, and has never even heard of it, how can it be targeted?

This is even more terrifying than the specialty, and there are only a few specialties in a large restaurant, including special side dishes.

But Wang Fuji hot pot directly lifted the table and simply came up with a new cuisine.

Shopkeeper Xie just thought about it, and secretly said in his heart that it was not good.

The previous arrangement is useless.

The category of the liquor store is so small, and everyone sells similar things, so it is very convenient to target, but how to target the hot pot in front of you?

Everyone sells differently, and it's not the right way at all.

"Shopkeeper Xie, this hot pot looks very simple."

The people around him leaned over and whispered, "As long as you eat it twice, there is no secret." ”

"When the time comes, open a few more hot pot restaurants, and Wong Fu Chi's business will naturally be affected."

Shopkeeper Xie looked at Zhang Fugui, who was about to walk on stage, and always felt that something was wrong, and shook his head,

"It's hard to say, it's not that we don't know about Malatang, it's very easy, but we just can't learn that taste."

"The hot pot is estimated to be the same, the taste is not right, and after eating it a few times, others will not come again."

"The reason why a specialty dish is a specialty is not that no one steals it, but that it can't learn it, which is a specialty dish and a signboard."

The person next to him continued, "Since there are several flavors of hot pot bases, we can also develop new ones. ”

"As long as we can attract some of the guests of Wangfu Ji, it is enough, and when the time comes, we will open a few more stores in Linxian, and the business of Wangfu Ji will definitely be affected."

Shopkeeper Xie hissed and fiddled with the wrench on his thumb, "That's true, you can try it, and then we'll try the hot pot later." ”

"I always feel that Zhang Fugui has prepared a backhand, otherwise he wouldn't have done it with such fanfare, there must be something to rely on."

"In any case, let's get those one hundred taels in our hands today, and prove that our Qingyue Building's Baihua Brew is the first in Linxian County!"

……

Just when Shopkeeper Xie and others were still discussing,

Not far away, Li Changan and Liu Zhiyin mixed in the crowd, but found that there were no seats inside.

A little guy just wanted to come forward and salute, but was stopped by Li Changan with a look, at this time, he is not suitable for everyone's attention, just make a fortune in a muffled voice.

The two stood in the corner, looking at the bustling lobby.

"Erlang, there are so many people." Liu Zhiyin stood on tiptoe and whispered in Li Changan's ear, his eyebrows filled with joy.

When the fragrant wind hit, Li Changan was slightly in a trance, and replied sideways, "After today, our Wangfu Ji will definitely be famous in Linxian County." ”

Because what he said could not be heard by outsiders, the two heads were very close to each other.

At this time, Zhang Fugui's voice sounded, and Li Changan was about to look up, when someone suddenly squeezed his waist, and Li Changan stumbled.

The next moment, time seemed to stop.

Li Changan's eyes widened instantly, and the softness of his lips made his heart beat uncontrollably.

Li Changan didn't have time to reminisce, so he quickly straightened up and protected Liu Zhiyin by his side, "Ahem...... A bit too many people......"

Liu Zhiyin's body trembled slightly, and her pretty face suddenly flew red, delicate and beautiful, and her smiling eyes were full of shame.

How...... How so?

Liu Zhiyin's eyes moved up little by little, and he secretly glanced at Li Changan's expression, and found that Li Changan was looking ahead, but his face was also slightly red, and the shame in his heart was even worse.

In a panic, he looked ahead, but he was unconsciously empty, just staring blankly, not knowing what to think in his head.

Li Changan's heart seemed to be beating a drum, he had several relationships in his previous life, not Xiaobai, but such a simple touch, just kissing his cheek, made him panic.

Your mother's awakening, this is your sister-in-law.

There is no Amitabha in the south, and there is no Amitabha in the south......

Under the strong pressure of the throbbing in his heart, Li Changan turned his attention to Zhang Fugui on the stage.

At this time, Zhang Fugui lifted the yellow cloth, and under the yellow cloth was a wine bottle with red paper pasted, and the wine bottles were all the same, and there was no difference from the outside.

"I think you've all seen it, these are the good wines that everyone has sent over the past five days, a total of forty-three."

"Under the red paper, the corresponding name of the wine and the name of the person who sent it were pasted, and the number was marked."

"There are 30 glasses per bottle, so I will pick 30 people to judge on stage."

Zhang Fugui took out a box, "Today, I would like to thank Gu Jiaoyu and the county students for their support, and I also ask Gu Jiaoyu and all the students to help me complete today's judgment." ”

"There are county school students, this judgment is natural and fair, and the big guys in the province say that I am Zhang Mangfu cheating."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience nodded,

"That's exactly how it should be, it's very appropriate to have county students to judge."

"As long as you sacrifice the bun, you can definitely ensure that no one is lying."

……

Shopkeeper Xie's face changed abruptly, this Zhang Fugui actually let the county school students take action.

He thought that Zhang Fugui would be like him, send more of his own people, and get his own wine first.

But Shopkeeper Xie never expected that Zhang Fugui made it clear that he wanted to judge fairly.

This Zhang Mangfu, do you really think that his wine is the first in Linxian County?

It's really better than good wine, Qingyuelou has never lost!

Zhang Mangfu, you are looking for death yourself, don't blame me.

In the applause of everyone, three county school students, including Qin Zizhao, got up and walked up the steps to hug their fists, "Thanks to Boss Zhang's attention, we will naturally judge impartially." ”

With that, the three of them stretched out their palms, and three pieces of ancient inscriptions with a bronze luster slowly appeared.

The audience was suddenly silent, and the eyes of everyone crowded in the lobby were hot.

This is the Wen Zheng, the symbol of the literati, with the Wen Zheng is the real literati,

Li Changan's heart is surging, is this Wen Zheng?

Could the change in my mind also be related to Wen Zheng?

No matter what I think about it in the past few days, the darkness that is full of cracks and has been escaping light still can't be broken.

Before the darkness, the erection monument gathered by the white fog also seemed to fall into silence, without any movement.

The bronze inscriptions of the three people on the stage, looking at the shape, look like a shrunken vertical monument.

Although there are no patterns on it, Li Changan can feel the similarities between the two.

Just as Li Changan was thinking, the voices of Qin Zizhao and the other three sounded, brilliant like a bell, echoing in the lobby,

"Without faithfulness, no man can stand in the world."

"Grammar – see each other openly!"

Three bronze rays of light rose, connected together, and turned into a curtain of light, hanging down on the steps.

"Those who pass through this gate of light have the same heart."
