The carriage ran over the bluestone ground and walked forward, and when it got out of the downtown area, the roadside hawking was much quieter.

There are a lot of pedestrians on both sides, but the more you go to West Street, the bigger and more gorgeous the shops around you, and even the clothes of those people around you are different from those in the downtown before, becoming more exquisite and noble, and from time to time on the road can also stagger with some passing carriages.

When he got closer to the restaurant, Yun Jinchu chuckled: "Speaking of which, I've only been to the first floor once." ”

After coming to see the wine cellar and sealing the secret passage that day, she was trapped in the mansion by Mrs. Song and her "preparation for marriage", and she never came back since.

Sun Yilan had previously handed her the news, saying that the new batch of wine had been brewed, and the previous batch had been cellared for more than half a month, although it was not as mellow as the aging, but it would be able to be sold after a few days of storage for a month, and the first floor should be opened at that time.

Yun Jinchu tilted his head and said: "When the Lin family restaurant was transferred before, I asked Sister Sun to take over their cooks as well, and Sister Sun handed me a post, and I saw that they were all ordinary dishes, and I had to think of a few specialty dishes that other restaurants didn't have when they opened." ”

Mo Xuanchen was surprised: "You know how to cook?" ”

"What do you think?"

Yun Jinchu glanced at him, she was okay with a knife and a dagger in her hand, and she was afraid that she would be able to blow up the kitchen if she went into the kitchen to cook.

At the beginning, there was a canteen in the Blue Cloud Base, and she could eat food from all over the world by spending points, she hadn't even fried a poached egg, and the only thing she ever did was barbecue, after all, when she used to survive in the wild, she could only roast meat to satisfy her stomach, otherwise she would have to go hungry, but her level of barbecue.

I feel reluctant to eat it myself, let alone take it out and sell it, if I really eat it, I'm afraid I won't be able to wipe out all the guests on the first floor.

Yun Jinchu couldn't cook vegetables, but she wondered if she could add a few snacks to the first floor.

For example, ice powder, cold cakes, and some ice drinks that were not available in ancient times are just right for the current hot summer.

When the restaurant opens, put these things in it and sell them, or put them in the meal as a gift, which is enough to be novel for a while to attract customers for the restaurant.

"Ice powder?" Luo Qingyu was curious, "What is that, made of ice?" ”

"Sort of."

"What about milk tea and iced drinks?"

Yun Jinchu probably described it to him, Luo Qingyu suddenly became interested, and even Luo Jingzhou couldn't help but look sideways: "If you can really do it, you can really attract guests." ”

I've never heard of these things before, and I've never seen anyone do them.

If it can really be made something exclusive, it can indeed attract a lot of early guests for the first floor in the hot summer weather.

Those who can come to West Street to consume are rich and noble, and most of the things that cost hundreds of dollars no one cares, as long as they are novel enough to attract people's attention, there will be no shortage of people who pay for them.

Several people were interested, but Luo Jingzhou said: "According to the meaning of the princess, these things you said have to use ice, but I'm afraid there is not so much ice supply in Beijing?" ”

Only some powerful families in Beijing will store ice in winter, and use it to cool off and store some things in summer, but the general ice cellar will not be too big, and the supply of a government is enough, but it may be difficult to support the consumption of such a large restaurant for several months.

Yun Jin was stunned when he heard this, and reflexively wanted to say that he could make ice.

It can be seen that Luo Qingyu also babbled that if there is no ice, she is afraid that things will lose their taste, Luo Jingzhou also frowned and thought, as if ice cubes are really rare, she hurriedly swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, and there was a trace of doubt in her eyes.

Could it be that no one in this dynasty she came to knew how to make ice?

Yun Jinchu remembered that in her world, there were already people who used saltpeter to make ice in the Tang Dynasty, and although there was still ice storage later, there was no shortage of ice for sale, but there was no one in the Daye Dynasty?

Mo Xuanchen saw the sudden excitement on Yun Jinchu's face as if he had picked up gold, he raised his eyebrows thoughtfully, and said, "Don't worry about this, there is a lot of ice in the palace." ”

When he saw that several people had looked at him, he said,

"I was weak in previous years, I couldn't stand the heat, and there was an ice basin in the place where I was in the summer, and I didn't prepare for the first two years in Beijing and still found the ice supplies sent by the palace, and then the people in the house would store more every winter, and it was enough to think about it."

The uncle and nephew of the Luo family knew it when they heard it.

Yun Jinchu glanced at him: Weak?

Mo Xuanchen raised his lips: Go back and say.

Yun Jinchu rolled her eyes in her heart, this person is as strong as a cow, where did he come from, how could the Zhennan Wangfu go to store ice alone because he took care of his body, but she also estimated that Mo Xuanchen noticed something, and she didn't say much when she said what she said just now.

I only sighed in my heart: human spirit!

……

The carriage stopped in front of the first floor, and Sun Yilan quickly got the news.

Knowing that Yun Jinchu brought Mo Xuanchen and the people of the Luo family to come over to taste the wine, she hurriedly led a few people upstairs to the VIP room, and instructed Liu Sanniang to fetch the wine, and asked the cook to prepare a few dishes.

"The furnishings in this building are good, it's quite special." Luo Qingyu looked around curiously and said.

Unlike the restaurants he had seen before, the view in the building was wide and transparent, and the corridors were very spacious.

There are no porcelain ornaments that are usually used to show wealth, only some calligraphy and paintings are hung on the wall, and there is a little more unusual elegance for no reason.

There are many tables in the lobby downstairs, and there is a high platform in front of it, which is supposed to be used for people to perform, and when you go upstairs, you will find that the second floor is a small cubicle separated by screens, each of which is very elegant, and the third floor is all sealed private rooms.

Pineapple wooden door, after entering is a wide side hall, and then go around the place to drink.

There is a beaded curtain in the middle, and the side windows open to see the street view, and the windows to the west face the lobby of the building.

This private room is very private, but it is easy to see the outside.

Luo Jingzhou said: "This is the case with all the private rooms here? ”

Sun Yilan said with a smile: "My princess said that the restaurant is a place for people to drink and talk, not to mention that the first floor is also in the name of selling wine, so it is natural to make the guests feel at home, otherwise if you get drunk and say a few words casually, it will be passed out, isn't that a sign on our first floor?" ”

In other words, you have to worry about whether anyone is eavesdropping when you eat and drink elsewhere.

But on the first floor, it's open to eat and drink, and no one knows if you really drink too much and say something you shouldn't say.
