Chapter 691: Waiting in line to eat

At this moment, one of the innermost windows of the canteen appeared one after another cooks, servants and others who were working, some were busy carrying food, and some were busy arranging people to be responsible for serving meals at the window.

Xiao Rui personally dealt with the problem of queuing order, "Everyone, you are not officials now, you are students who came to visit and eat, this is a school cafeteria, not a restaurant." If you just sit at the table and wait, you will be hungry when it gets dark. ”

"Master Hou, isn't it the same as queuing up to eat in the barracks? But we don't have dishes and chopsticks, how can we eat? Cheng Yanjin asked loudly.

Xiao Rui laughed and said, "Yes, it is to follow the rules of the military camp." Do you see the big tables on either side of the door? There are five coarse porcelain pottery bowls embedded in the square wooden trays on it, and everyone receives one, and then goes to the window here to line up to eat according to the order. ”

"The academy pays attention to self-improvement and self-reliance, and has enough food and clothing by yourself, but don't expect to take a small servant to serve. By the way, each person prepares ten cents, and pays the money with one hand and the other with the food. ”

Yes? Ten cents? Where did we bring the money when we came out to visit?

I brought it, but it was all silver, not copper......

There was a lot of talking.

Emperor Li Erlang said: "Don't be embarrassed, I am happy that the academy is completed today, so this meal is open at noon, and I will pay for it." Zang Feng, don't forget it one by one, when the time comes, just report the number directly, and go to the accounts in the palace. ”

Everyone thanked the emperor.

Wei Chi Jingde grinned and strode towards the door, "Hahaha, since it's the same as eating in the army, I'll come first." ”

Well? You come first?

Cheng Biting Jin dragged the person back, "Old Cheng, what are you doing with me?" Don't rob me. ”

Cheng Yanjin really wanted to cover his eyes and pretend not to know this thing, "Lao Hei, what are you panicking about?" Of course, His Majesty and the Emperor came first. ”

Yes?

"Ahem, that's, that's ......" Yu Chi Jingde hurriedly followed Cheng Yanjin and stood aside.

Li Er laughed and said: "Today, regardless of the monarch or minister, everyone is a student, so you can do it yourself, you don't have to be restrained." Jingde and Zhijie, you two come first. ”

"Order! Thank you, Your Majesty. Wei Chi Jingde ran towards the door briskly.

With these two taking the lead, the others no longer took care of it, went to the tray in an orderly manner, and then lined up with Xiao Rui to eat.

Learn from Xiao Rui's example, three dishes and one soup, and then leave the coarse porcelain pottery bowl to hold rice, or ask for two flax cakes, steamed buns or something.

Xiao Rui took the lead in cooking, but he didn't eat for himself, but summoned the prince Li Chengqian and handed him the tray, "Chengqian, come on, come on, send this to the old man, he is old and can't line up, you take care of it." I'll bring you something to eat later. ”

Li Chengqian hurriedly took it, and then took care of the Emperor Li Yuan and found a place to sit down.

Old Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, Chengqian, you can also go to the queue for dinner." ”

"It's okay grandfather, my brother-in-law said to help me bring one later. I'm with you. Li Chengqian said filial piety.

The chamberlain next to him, Lao Wang, persuaded: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, there are old slaves here, you can also go and eat." ”

Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "This is not good, my brother-in-law said, I will do it myself, and I am not allowed to bring scholars and servants to serve." It's a plan for me to serve the emperor's grandfather, but you can't. The king's chamberlain, you should also go to the line for dinner. ”

How does this work? The old slave is ......

Lao Li Yuan waved his hand and said: "Listen to the prince, you go and line up according to the rules, and find a place to eat by yourself, you don't have to wait." ”

On the side of the window, someone dodged to make way for Xiao Rui, "Master Hou, you come first." ”

Xiao Rui waved his hand and said: "No, you can come first, today I am the host, everyone is new to here, of course I have to take care of you and eat well." Eat openly, and the food is enough. ”

Chatting here, the team next to him exclaimed from time to time, "I want that, that...... That's the braised pork from the Drunken Immortal Building, right? Give me more! Hey, don't shake your spoon......"

"Is that roasted tofu? Braised lamb? My God, it's all stir-fried dishes from Zuixianlou, such a meal, one meat and two vegetables, and a soup? Ten cents is definitely not expensive, it is simply too cheap. ”

"But it's not, if you eat a meal in Chang'an Drunken Immortal Building, you will have to say ten taels of silver......

……

"Hou Ye is righteous, I originally thought that ten cents a meal, Hou Ye made money with a black heart, but now it seems that this is a loss-making deal!"

Losing money?

What do you think? When did Hou Ye make a loss-making transaction? I believe in Hou Ye's words, he said that this is the cost price, that is the cost price, and if you don't make money, you won't lose money.

Yes? Is this the cost price? If this is the cost price, then the meal in the drunken fairy building......

Hiss...... The cost of ten cents, Drunken Immortal Lou dares to sell ten taels of silver? That's a thousand-fold profit......

Black! Sure enough, it's a black-hearted businessman!

gossiping, and soon Xiao Rui was labeled as a black-hearted businessman.

Xiao Rui didn't expect that just letting them experience the university cafeteria, how could it become a fake three-to-five?

is really a bit bold, and directly shouted loudly and asked: "Master Hou, if this meal really costs ten yuan, then your meal in Drunken Immortal Building is too black-hearted, how much do you have to earn?" ”

For a while, all the people in line were stunned, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui complained in his heart, but he didn't panic at all.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the method of stir-frying is the same as that of Zuixianlou, but the ingredients, portions, environment, service, etc., are completely different. The amount and taste of the food here are only half of the level of the drunken immortal building. ”

"Although the drunken fairy building is expensive, it is a restaurant, opened in the bustling West Market, where every inch of land is expensive, and there is no comparison here. In the Drunken Immortal Building, one meat and two vegetables, plus a soup, can be sold for about five to ten taels of silver, which is a little more expensive, but each is made separately and carefully. ”

"It's all fried in a cauldron in the canteen, and one pot can serve 100 people, so the cost is low."

"In addition, this is also an encouragement to the students of the college, with such cheap and delicious meals, not only can the children in the college eat well, but also attract the children outside the college to yearn for it. Why not? ”

This explanation is still convincing, the cost of the big pot dish is indeed low. In addition, in order to attract students to come to school, there are some other advantages and characteristics, which should also be used.

Soon, hundreds of people were divided into ten teams, and everyone successfully finished the meal, and this way of queuing up to eat and self-sufficiency gave people a very novel experience, and many people applauded, which is not bad. I'm used to being served, and I almost forgot my hands and feet.

"Hmmm! It's really delicious, although it's not as good as the Drunken Immortal Building, but it's much stronger than the ordinary restaurants in Chang'an City. The price of ten cents is simply too cheap. ”

"Master Hou, the food in this canteen is very good, can the lower official give you a suggestion? Tell you, the cooks, don't shake your hands when you're cooking, my bowl isn't full. What if there are those children who eat a lot of food and don't have enough food to eat? ”

"Hey! That's right, I don't have enough to eat here, and I'm going to get another one. Wei Chi Jingde stood up directly.

Everyone laughed and said, "Jingde, are you the child who eats a lot?" ”

"That's it, I was born with a big amount of food." Wei Chigong patted his chest and shouted.

Hahahaha......

Many people laughed, and many people laughed and had a stomachache.

Cheng Zhijie felt that he was dragging people to sit down, and Wei Chigong said dissatisfiedly: "Old Cheng, what are you doing with me?" I'll ask for another one, and those who give money won't eat it for nothing. ”

Xiao Rui laughed and said, "Everyone, why are you laughing? As I said just now, today you should try the cafeteria of the academy for the children, and treat yourself as the children studying in the academy. General Wei Chi was not wrong. Come to the kitchen, tell the kitchen, when you are cooking, you are not allowed to shake your hands, and you will beat the food more than the flat bowl. ”

"Hehe, everyone is laughing, these people are from the surrounding villages, I have never seen such a big scene, let alone so many court officials, it is inevitable that I am a little excited and scared, it is normal for my hands to tremble."

Everyone praised one after another, "Master Hou has a heart." Such a regular canteen is very meaningful, and everyone must be relieved to send children to school. ”

"Master Hou, I also have a suggestion, is there any wine in the canteen? How can you do without food? Cheng Yanjin stood up.
