Chapter 188: Knowing how many pounds and taels I have
"I'm sorry, officer, the private rooms are full, do you want to be in the lobby?
Alternatively, you may be early next time, or you may set a later date. ”
Wei Yan asked Chang Shun to arrange it first, but it was still late for them to come to dinner temporarily.
Lingyun Restaurant has only been open for more than a month, and it has not stopped being full every day since it opened, especially the private rooms have to be booked a day or two in advance.
The shopkeeper was so polite, and Chang Shunming knew that this was Miss Biao's restaurant, so he couldn't say anything to embarrass the shopkeeper, so he could only wait for the master to come.
Wei Yan rode a horse in front, Ruan Jiaojiao sat in the carriage behind, Wei Yan saw Chang Shun waiting at the door and thought it was set.
The next moment he knew that he was thinking too much, Chang Shun trotted up to meet him, and led the horse to help the master dismount.
"Second young master, the little one has not been set to the private room, the shopkeeper said that it is full, and now there is only the lobby."
Hearing this, Wei Yan couldn't help frowning, this was the first time he had invited his cousin to dinner and encountered this kind of thing, and it was also his poor consideration.
If he had been angry before, now he would have changed his smile after frowning.
When I turned around, I saw my cousin who was helped out of the carriage by Yao Huang and said with a smile: "My cousin has a prosperous business here, but I didn't arrange it in advance, I wonder if I have the honor to invite my cousin to live in the lobby?" ”
He is not jealous of the good business of the restaurant, he wishes that his cousin's business is prosperous and prosperous, and then he can follow suit.
Ruan Jiaojiao gave Yao Huang a look, and Yao Huangjiao smiled and called Chang Shun to follow her in.
After a while, he came out again, "Miss, young master, it's all arranged." ”
Not only was it arranged, but the shopkeeper personally came out to greet him.
"Let's go, I'm really hungry."
The shopkeeper recognized Yao Huang, of course, he also recognized the master, and when he saw the master, he was just about to say hello when Ruan Jiaojiao signaled, so he had to call Miss Sheng and invite someone in.
In the VIP room on the third floor, there was a room specially reserved for Ruan Jiaojiao, and Wei Yan couldn't help but admire when he sat down.
"It's worthy of my cousin's shot, I have never seen such an atmospheric and luxurious restaurant in Yecheng."
Ruan Jiaojiao laughed at him, "I've seen it in Yangzhou?" ”
Wei Yan shook his head directly, "No." ”
He suddenly remembered and asked, "It's all my cousin's restaurant, why aren't the restaurants in Yangzhou so atmospheric?" ”
Looking at the three-story restaurant with carved beams and paintings from the outside is already the most atmospheric Wei Yan has ever seen, and it is even more surprising to see the furnishings and materials inside.
When he entered the so-called highest-level VIP room, Wei Yan was even more surprised, the exquisiteness of the furnishings and the precious and exquisite objects placed at will were comparable to those of the Marquis of the Palace, right?
Just now on the third floor, at the top of the stairs there are two soft-looking girls to guide them, the girl is beautiful he has seen, the corridor random objects he also saw, just take out a random object to sell in Jubao Zhai for a hundred taels of silver.
In Lingyun Restaurant, it is just an object placed in the corridor, which is very casual.
When he entered the private room, he saw a human-high screen, and after turning the screen, he found that it was double-sided embroidery.
He doesn't understand this or embroidery, but with such a big one, the value is definitely above those ornaments outside.
Just when he was speechless, he heard his cousin say, "There was no Brother Zong before. ”
Listening to the rationality and complacency in her tone, there was something Wei Yan didn't understand.
Yes, what is there in Hezong's strange goods Curie?
He Zong was reluctant to her.
In the end, he still had a doubt, "I can't hide it, this time I earned more than 1,000 taels of silver with my cousin's light, but I don't know if it's enough to treat my cousin to this meal today?" ”
Eating a meal in such a place, Wei Yan didn't think it could be cheap.
"Second cousin, don't worry, I won't let you pay the bill without money.
Give you a discount, and then give you a discount card, and in the future, you can have a discount as long as you show the card when you invite friends, but it can only be used by you personally. ”
Wei Yan heard of this discount card, and when he was in Yangzhou, Ruan Yu took him to his own restaurant to eat, and used it, but the corresponding discount degree was different depending on the card.
This kind of card also has to deposit money from it first, and the amount of discount is determined according to the amount of money saved.
"Hehe, then I'll be relieved, and I'll be cheeky enough to accept my cousin's card.
You're more familiar than me here, you can order food, and don't be polite to me. ”
Ruan Jiaojiao has never been polite when it comes to eating, and she also ordered a pot of wine for herself, she likes relatively strong wine, and when she ordered it, she asked Wei Yan.
"Are you used to drinking this wine?"
Wei Yan thought about it and waved his hand, "It's better to give me a pot of softer, otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to trouble my cousin to send me back." ”
Wei Yan was quite self-aware of himself in this regard, and of course, everything went smoothly after he got his mentality right.
Combined with Yecheng's habits and tastes, Ruan Jiaojiao added a few dishes to the original recipe, and she was quite satisfied after tasting it in person today.
Cooks are trained, and if you have a foundation, you can learn quickly.
It's going to start to get cold in a few months, and Yecheng is getting cold even faster, so maybe it's time to get a new dish before winter comes.
Wei Yan originally intended to get closer to Ruan Jiaojiao, and after drinking a few glasses of wine, he couldn't stop talking.
He made it clear how to choose the goods and how to sell them, and then raised a toast at the end.
"This time it's really thanks to my cousin, if it weren't for my cousin, I wouldn't have tasted the taste of making money.
If my cousin has anything to do with me in the future, I will do my best.
Here, I'll give you another drink. ”
Xu was happy to eat this meal and drank again, Ruan Jiaojiao looked at Wei Yan and felt more and more pleasing to the eye.
"It just so happens that I have a deal in my hand, if you are idle lately......"
Ruan Jiaojiao was answered by Wei Yan before she finished speaking, "Idle, idle, I'm idle."
If my cousin has anything to say, I'm sure I'll do it beautifully. ”
Wei Yan knew his own ability, and he knew better that his cousin was also clear about his ability, so he was not afraid that his cousin would say something he couldn't do.
After eating a meal for nearly an hour, when the two of them returned to the house, they happened to see Zhao Sheng coming out of the gate of the Wei Mansion.
"The little one has seen the young lady, the second cousin young master."
Zhao Sheng was also stunned when he looked up and saw the future lady, the key is that the lady and Wei Yan are together, and both of them have the smell of alcohol.
"Uncle is coming to visit Wei Xiancheng tomorrow, and the little one is here to hand over the post."
Ruan Jiaojiao remembered that He Zong did say that he was going to come to see his uncle that day, that is, he would be able to see him tomorrow.
It is customary for couples not to see each other before marriage, and tomorrow will be the last time they see each other before they get married.
Zhao Sheng came back to reply, "Uncle, the little one sent the greeting post and met Mrs. at the door."
There is also the second cousin young master, and the lady should have eaten with the second cousin young master. ”
Zhao Sheng looked at his master and stopped talking, he didn't know whether to continue or not.
