Yingbin Building is the first place in the restaurants in the capital, with a strong background, luxurious decoration, and a high level of chefs, the best dishes and the most expensive prices, and the most types of wine, sitting firmly in the top position.

Unexpectedly, he was defeated by the rising star Huixianlou, how to be willing.

It's the imperial chefs in the back kitchen who are above the top, and when they see the diners coming, they are all from Huixianlou, which is called a shy.

Their specialty dishes such as rich and rich flowers, golden and jade full of halls, and Fu Shouxi, were defeated by the dishes that they knew what kind of dishes they knew when they heard them, and even the dishes that could be glimpsed and made could be seen.

This is the capital, not an unknown small place in other provinces.

When did the nobles in Beijing not talk about elegance, pomp, and taste?

It's really amazing.

The king of Chu made a series of moves, all of which were resolved one by one, and his fighting spirit was aroused more and more.

So Jiang Li's shopkeeper found that there was a crisis in Huixian Tower.

There were too many diners in the original advanced building, and when they saw that there was a long queue outside the building every day, they set up a window to register the reserved guests. As a result, when I arrived at the next day, the private rooms were all empty.

Scheduled guests don't come!

Lin Zhaoxia was also a little stunned when she heard the news. In this era, guests do not have mobile phones, they cannot call to inquire or change the time, and there is no advance deposit that can be deducted as compensation.

What about resale transfers?

Neither does resale. Since the reservation was accepted, most of the guests of the private room came according to the agreement, and resold it to the guests who lined up sporadically at the door, and it was not enough to fill the private room on several floors.

It's falling into the pit again.

Xia Pingzhang took his father and brother to visit the capital for two days, and then he was ready to send them back to his hometown.

Walking around the newly rising Huixian Tower, he proudly introduced to his father and brother: "This Huixian Tower is the most popular restaurant in our capital now, and some of the small paintings of the menu are still painted by my son." Our goose is sold here, and a plate will be sold for two taels of silver! ”

I heard that the painting painted by my son was sold for a price, and it was still sold to such a high-end and luxurious restaurant, and Xia's father and brother Xia were very proud.

I also heard that a plate of roast goose there sells for two taels of silver, and it is staggering.

Obediently, two taels of silver can buy several goose with hair.

But not jealous, with the goose people to buy back to deal with, to cook to make it took a lot of processes to be served, on their own New Year's eat boiled goose can not be sold for two taels of silver high price.

The three of Xia's father and son couldn't afford to eat such a restaurant, but it didn't prevent them from coming closer to pay their respects.

As a result, when he got closer, Father Xia poked in, a little puzzled, "Son, this, there are not many people here." "Doesn't it mean that the people in line are squeezing their heads every day?

The son's temperament of reporting good news but not bad news, Father Xia shook his head, but this restaurant is not his own, so he can't say good things about it.

Xia Pingzhang was also a little puzzled, so he stayed up with Brother Lu and others overnight to light the wax painting menu, and his hand almost broke. If you don't have a business, can you renovate the menu every day? In these two days alone, he earned more than a tael of silver.

But now the business of Huixian Lou seems to be, average? People are not a lot of looks.

When I got closer, I heard people talking, and I realized that there were many scheduled guests, and suddenly they couldn't come for some reason.

Scheduled guests don't come? One family, so many people? Xia Pingzhang was stunned, who is doing King Yue?

King Yue is such a good person, and it is not easy to return to Beijing to start an industry, how can he treat him like this.

Xia Pingzhang was very angry, and his brain was hot, "Dad, brother, let's go, let's go inside and have a good meal today." "Offer some running water to King Yue.

Father Xia trembled when he heard this.

Inside, the nobles came and went, and there were singers and dancers performing on the high platform on the first floor, which was something like him that a cropper could go in, and he desperately dragged Xia Pingzhang out.

Brother Xia also cowered and didn't dare to go inside, and helped persuade on the side: "Brother, we can't afford this kind of place." "A dish costs two taels, where can I afford to eat.

The whole family can't eat two taels a year.

The guys in the building saw that many of the scheduled guests did not come today, and had already come out with the menu to solicit customers, and saw the father and son arguing at the door, and walked over with a smile.

"Are the guests here to eat, take a look at our menu, our dishes are varied, the taste is good, you don't regret eating it." Abundance and thrift are made by people, and uncles and big brothers do what they can, and they don't have to be restrained. ”

Xia Pingzhang's stay in the capital was not short, and he could be regarded as having dealt with nobles, so he immediately straightened his back, took the menu in his hand, and looked through it.

Father Xia and Brother Xia were not good at embarrassing their son in front of outsiders, and their hand movements stopped. Seeing that the guy didn't look down on them, he was a little calm, and his eyes looked at the menu......

The two of them didn't know how to read, but their eyes lit up when they looked at the menu.

I don't know the words, but they know the painting above, and they also know the number next to the small painting, such a shallow and easy-to-understand number, I heard that it is from the capital, easy to learn, the old and young in the township know, this is the price of the dish?

Xia Pingzhang flipped through it, and he also counted it in his heart.

The price of food is not cheap overall, it is not something that people of their status are willing to eat, but it is not ridiculously expensive.

Thinking about the remuneration I got for the paintings last night, I made a treasure in my heart, "Dad, I got some money for painting the menu yesterday, enough for us to eat." It's rare to come back and forth, and go in and taste it, and you can still afford to eat one or two dishes. ”

Before the Xia father and son could react, the guy became more and more enthusiastic when he heard it, "This brother is a student from the Guanlan Library?" Ouch, this is a family, hurry up and please! ”

Pulling the father and son inside.

Looking at a booth on the first floor, he brought people over, "This is a four-seater, and your family is just right to sit." This is the menu, you look at the order first, and the small one will pour you some tea. ”

"No, no, we're not thirsty!" Father Xia was so frightened that he was about to grab the guy.

"Uncle, don't worry, the tea is free." The guy smiled and turned away.

Tea is free? That's good, it's free. I happened to be shopping all morning, and I was thirsty. I wonder if the store will arrest them back after drinking enough water and running away?

Such a luxurious restaurant is not a place for them to come.

Father Xia was thinking about it, and Brother Xia's eyes were already glued to the stage. The music is good, the dance is good, he has never seen it so big. The dancing girl smiled shallowly, and a pair of watery eyes seemed to be looking at him, blushing Brother Xia's face.

The father and son duo fidgeted, and there seemed to be a nail in their buttocks.

Xia Pingzhang, who ordered the dishes on the flip card, had calmed down, and had already seen the dishes that he ordered, all of which were affordable points, three dishes and one soup, which added up to only half a tael of silver, and he could afford it.

Breathe a sigh of relief.

And yesterday, the steward of the library came to him and said that the library had hired him and the other four poor students as the secretary, and he had a salary of two taels of silver a month.

I'd love to go out on the street and bring some guests in.

Want to stop ordering a dish or two? And it's rare for my father and brother to come back, and such a restaurant may not come again.

Just as he was hesitating, the big shopkeeper Jiang Li walked over, "I'm the big shopkeeper Jiang Li in the building, I heard that this brother is painting dishes in our building?" ”

Xia Pingzhang got up and arched his hand towards Jiang Li, "Exactly, thanks to the care of the prince, there is such an opportunity." "In order to do learning while not sleeping in the open.

For the paintings he painted, Jiang Li naturally remembered that there were a few small paintings he drew in the menu in his hand, so he pointed them out to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li was very happy, and when he heard about the reason, he said to the trembling father Xia: "Uncle, your son is filial, it's rare to come here, today I can enjoy my son's blessings, eat with peace of mind, the food in our building tastes good." ”

"Oops." When Father Xia saw the nobleman, he couldn't even say a complete sentence with a clumsy tongue.

"Don't disturb your meal, let the guy come to me if you need to." Jiang Li saw that they were uncomfortable and turned to leave.

Father Xia and Brother Xia breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought that the nobles in the capital had eyes on the top of their heads, but I didn't expect this shopkeeper to be so kind." ”

"Yes." Xia Pingzhang nodded in agreement, worthy of being the king of Yue. Yue Wang is a good person, and people who don't want to do things under him are so lenient with people and servants, and he is more and more glad to be able to find a job to do in Yue Wang's library.

Soon the free tea was served, not white water, it was a delicious drink, sweet, and it would cost a few pennies a cup to sell outside! It can also be refilled.

The father and son drank several glasses in a row, and they were full.

Soon the dishes also came up, three dishes and one soup, which made people have an appetite when they looked at it. Father Xia and Brother Xia couldn't help but taste it, and almost swallowed his tongue, "Sure enough, you get what you pay for, and it's strange that people's dishes are expensive." "That all makes sense.

"No wonder the moving table next to it is full of people, if this dish doesn't taste good, who will line up outside." Father Xia's eyes were almost glued to the table.

I've never heard of a table that can move by itself.

Xia Pingzhang withdrew his gaze from the paper table, "When my father and brother come back next time, I will take you to the moving table to eat." ”

Father Xia waved his hand, "If you don't come, you won't come, if you can come to such a place once, it's enough for us to talk about returning to our hometown." ”

How dare you come again. For these dishes, half a tael of silver was eaten, and all the money they earned from selling more than 20 geese went into it.

Father Xia couldn't help but feel distressed.

The father and son ate with relish, and the man brought another roast chicken. "We didn't order this!" The three of them waved their hands in fright.

"It was sent by our shopkeeper, saying that the dish painting you painted is very beautiful, which makes the guests look very appetizing, and it is a little bit of the shopkeeper's heart."

"This ......"

The guy put down the dish and left, the father and son stared at the roast chicken on the table, it was oily and red, and they didn't know how to do it, the color was so beautiful, and the fragrance went straight to the nose.

"Is this really for us? Gratuitous? ”

"Yes, Dad, brother, eat with confidence. This is the restaurant of King Yue, and King Yue is a good person. ”

Only then did the father and son start to take a bite, it was so delicious that they almost ascended to immortality on the spot, which was also so delicious! I've never tasted it like this in my dreams.

Xia Pingzhang took his father and brother to have a good meal in Huixian Tower, thinking that there were few guests in Huixian Mansion today, and he almost went to the street to help pick up customers. The same goes for the guys in Huixianlou.

It's just that without waiting for them to move, Lin Zhaoxia already had a countermeasure and canceled the reservation for this service.

There are many nobles in the capital, and it is impossible to tell who is maliciously booking a seat or really unable to come for some reason. The capital is full of nobles, and they can't afford to offend. The nobles have subordinates, so if you love to line up, you can line up.

Don't make an appointment, change to call the number, call the number when the position is empty, call the next number when the person is not there, and don't wait for it.

Got in line? It's okay, add a few more benches at the door, in addition to providing free tea, free snacks are also available, what sweet rice, salty rice, pot, fried rice, fried melon seeds, and also plant a variety of snacks for free, so that you can queue up and no longer complain.

These snacks are delicious and not expensive. Huixian House can afford it.

Want to pop in for a free snack? I'm sorry, when I was numbering, I reported my name, and the guy at the door was not a decoration, so I could cheat a second time?

There are no more people who make malicious reservations. After canceling the reservation and changing the number, the guests returned, and it was full of people. After a long queue at the door, more and more people wanted to squeeze into the building to eat.

People are all conformists, obviously no one at the door of the restaurant restaurant, the guys are shouting hoarse to attract guests, the guests just don't want to go, just want to look at the crowded place drilling.

Therefore, after canceling the reservation and changing the number, there were more and more guests in Huixian Building.

After there were more people, Lin Zhaoxia made a new move.

At the paper table in the lobby on the first floor, many guests always complained that they couldn't get a seat, so Lin Zhaoxia added an extra opportunity for the guests and added a breakfast service.

Originally, Huixianlou only made two main meals, lunch and dinner, and all restaurants and restaurants in the capital were like this.

It's not that there is no breakfast outside, there are still street eateries or vendors that sell breakfast, but there are no large restaurants and restaurants that do breakfast business.

One is to concentrate on making two main meals, and the other is to make breakfast, so I have to prepare the goods early and be busy, and the chefs, purchasers, and guys are afraid that they will not be able to get busy, which will affect the lunch business. The third is that the big restaurants can't look down on the three melons and two dates earned for breakfast.

But Lin Zhaoxia knew that breakfast and afternoon tea were doing prosperous business, and the flow of water was not weaker than two main meals.

In places such as Hyundai South China, restaurants have not yet opened at six or seven o'clock, and people waiting outside for breakfast have come to line up early.

The breakfast business in Beijing is a blue ocean. Large restaurants and restaurants didn't do this business, and she happened to pick up the leaks. It's also a good time to give back to those guests who queued up and complained that they couldn't sit at the paper table for so many days.

The welcome building secretly made a stumbling block, maliciously booked, so that there were no guests in the Huixian Building, this damage was resolved by the Huixian Building, and before they could think of a new move, they heard a strange thing......

Huixianlou is going to do breakfast business!

And only the first floor is open. The private rooms upstairs are not open, and there are no singing and dancing shows.

Huixianlou just released the news, and the welcome building was dumbfounded. Doing breakfast business?

Selling steamed buns? Or wonton noodles bean paddle baked cakes? How much can you make in a morning with a few pennies in business? Only the first floor area is open, twenty-eight booths, plus that paper-shaped table, even if you can rotate several batches, how many people can sit when it is full?

Can the three melons and two dates earned be worth the wages of the guys and the kitchen?

With such a large amount of work, this is to treat the guys in the back kitchen and front hall as cows.

The night before, the second watch only closed the dinner business, went home to clean up the third watch and went to bed, but before the fifth watch, I had to get up again to busy the breakfast business?

King Yue wants to make money, he wants to go crazy. Can the kitchen and the guys be happy?

Of course, the guys in Huixianlou are willing, and willing. Who thinks silver bites hands? It's just that they don't use them in the building. The princess recruited a new batch of masters to do white cases, and the guys also re-transferred a batch. said that he was afraid of tiring them.

They want to say that they are not tired at all, they are not afraid of being tired, so they are willing to be more tired, so that they can earn a little more. But the princess disagreed. The chef of Huixian Building was divided into red and white cases, and the guys were also divided into two shifts. Two sets of teams.

When the people outside were looking forward to it, this day was in the middle of the day, and the breakfast business of Huixian Lou finally opened.
