With family and mouth, with relatives and friends, they rushed to the hot pot restaurant.

20% off!

The old man of the family brought more than 30 people behind him, and he was quite embarrassed to get started, not his son, son-in-law, nephew, and nephew...... Plus grandchildren and granddaughters, there are too many by accident.

He hurriedly asked Lu Wen, and he just had a coupon, which could be used by several people.

Lu Wen greeted him at the door, and when he saw this large group of people, he was also a little dumbfounded, he originally thought that a coupon would be used for a table, but everyone came, so he couldn't let more than 30 people squeeze a table!

Who made him not explain in advance.

Lu Wen gritted his teeth and recognized: "Yes, but the meat can only be sent on one plate, not on the table." ”

"That's okay!" They were all twenty percent off, and they didn't need Lu Wen to send them again, and the family happily went in and occupied three tables.

This is Lu Wen, who will be in charge of the hot pot restaurant, he is not as unreliable as when Lu Xu opened the restaurant, and hired a lot of clever guys who had opened shops or done small businesses in the past from the Guanyang Alliance with high salaries, and worked as a runner in their hot pot restaurant.

Anyway, the hot pot is simple, just serve the dishes in time, watch the fire in the stove at any time, and teach the guests who can't eat how to eat.

In recent years, most people are illiterate, and they don't have any recipes, in addition to the name of the dish in the running hall, Lu Xu also built an open vegetable cutting kitchen.

Cut a portion, put a plate, and whoever wants something can be brought over by the running guy.

However, because there were too many people in the first few days, in the end, everyone's ordering was reduced to Lu Kee's unique self-service style, and some people even ran to the chef to star, cutting and grabbing one plate.

On the first day of opening, the hot pot restaurant was busy from opening in the morning until before curfew, consuming six sheep a day.

In the back, even the butcher who slaughtered the sheep went in to help the cook slice the mutton.

At the end of the first day, the chef who was cutting the meat couldn't lift his arms.

They and their buddies didn't go home either, they went straight to the backyard. Anyway, it was originally a house for people to live in, and Lu Wen only changed it to a restaurant next to the restaurant.

The next day, the business was still booming, and the people who were not in Guanyang conditions were simply distressed while eating, and they were distressed while eating, and every bite of mutton was like biting their own meat.

Expensive!

It's too expensive!

A thin plate, less than a catty, Lu Wen's price is 200 Wen.

It's like opening the door and grabbing money.

This is not their best mutton, it is said that the best part, a pound costs one or two silver, and it is limited to grab every day, until it is sold out, and it is too late to grab it.

When the hot pot restaurant opened, Guanyang suddenly discovered that they Guanyang now have so many rich merchants?

Many people on the ship from the south also ate mutton for the first time, especially those who were called by relatives to write a letter to inspect and want to open a shop in Guanyang next year to do business, or were invited by the Guanyang Yamen to only go to the state capital in the past, just in time for the opening of the Lu Ji hot pot restaurant.

The yamen can't afford to invite them to eat such expensive things, but they can come by themselves!

Those who buy and sell silk, tea, and luxury goods, where can they care about such a little silver, eat! Eat in a private room!

The people of Guanyang lined up outside the hot pot restaurant every day, and they didn't eat a bite of the most high-end meat, so they all let this group of rich people order a private room.

The liveliness of the hot pot restaurant makes the restaurants a little colder.

Those people from ordinary families who even have to sell coolies for a living pass by the hot pot restaurant and smell the smell of meat wafting from the store, and they can't help but be stunned.

They thought that these sheep would have nothing to do with them, but Lu Ji Restaurant immediately launched a bowl of mutton bone soup for only five cents.

"How much?"

"Wuwen!"

Wuwen is not enough to buy a fritter, but can you buy a bowl of thick white mutton soup?

Is Lu Ji crazy?

The third aunt Dong chopped green onions, "The small bowl of Wuwen, the big bowl of Bawen, our family Xuwa said that they are all scraps, not worth much, just sell a firewood for money, do you want it?" This sheep soup is warm after drinking. ”

"Yes!"

"Big bowl and small bowl?"

“…… Small bowls. ”

The third aunt scooped a full bowl, "There are seasonings and green onions on the table, what to eat and add it yourself, do you want to have a cake?" Coarse grains that do not make oil to burn cakes, one of the three texts. ”

Soon, the porters and coolies who were looking for work at the dock knew that Lu Kee Restaurant had launched a new set meal -

A large bowl of mutton soup and a multigrain cake for ten cents.

A small bowl of mutton soup and two multigrain cakes are also ten cents.

If you want to save a little more, then bring your own coarse grain steamed buns from home, as long as you have a bowl of mutton soup, Lu Ji will not rush people.

If you want to improve it, and you can't afford to eat hot pot, you can also order a haggis soup, which is full of water and minced mutton, a small bowl of ten wen, a large bowl of fifteen wen, and five wen, and you can also cook noodles.

Just a wall away, even the big kitchen is shared, and the rich and poor enjoy their own mutton.

Lu Ji's approach has been criticized, and some rich people have heard that the unloading at the wharf is the same sheep as them, and it is so cheap, and they feel angry that the Lu family is taking them as a big wrong.

But Lu Ji still went his own way.

Lu Wen also admitted that the meat in the hot pot restaurant can already cover the cost of a whole sheep, and the mutton soup in their restaurant does not need to make money.

There are so many sheep on the mountain, and they love to eat or not.

Because of this statement, Lu Wen became popular again in Guanyang, and those who had no money looked at him much more pleasantly, and those who had money looked at him even more unhappy.

Lu Wen is very happy, look, within a year, he Lu Wen will be known to everyone in Guanyang County!

He set a big ambition to make a name for himself in the streets and alleys of Guanyang villages and towns before fifteen.

This winter, Guanyang is particularly lively, and the people are still lively from morning to night.

Lu Xu took all the goods and manpower, passed through the vibrant and busy Guanyang, and set off again.

"I'll come back after picking up Lu Xuan, and when I come back, the academy should also be on vacation."

"Hmm."

"Then while you are free, teach me to write." Lu Xu was extremely embarrassed to hand over the small notebook and letters he had already written to Yan Junqi.

Yan Junqi still thought he didn't write it this time.

He flipped it open casually and saw that Lu Xu had marked a bunch of homophones by himself, and couldn't help laughing.

Lu Xu: "There are not so many typos in the back, I bought a Mongolian book and wrote it." ”

It's just that this thing doesn't even have a pinyin radical table.,It's too troublesome to turn it up.。

Yan Junqi looked at his Mengshu again, and saw that Lu Xu had folded a lot of corners, and in order to write to him, some places were about to turn the page, and his heart was moved.

"This book is for the enlightenment of the imperial examination, you don't use it well, it's better to leave it to Bao, and I'll help you make up a new one."

"You make it up?"

"Hmm. I take care of your accounts every day, and I know what you often use. ”

Lu Xu: "It's just that, you have to make up something else, cough ......"

He twisted his head and blushed, "I'm not just writing to you. ”

Yan Junqi was stunned, and his cheeks were hot.

On the day of Lu Xu's departure, Yan Junqi cut the paper and began to compile Lu Xu's special dictionary.

"If you don't see each other, you ...... every other autumn"

The author has something to say:

Small Theatre:

In the winter, the private education primary school opened, and Lu Xu opened his special textbook.

Student Lu: Sir, you're not making up a book, you're writing a love letter!

Mr. Yan (crimson cheeks): I am warning you to study and practice hard and study every day, otherwise you will be strange when you see it again.

Student Lu (shocked face): If you don't see you for a day, you can still use it like this every other autumn?!

Of course not~!

Chapter 184: Rote Learning

When Lu Xu was on the way with the grain merchants, the Xiao cavalry had been fighting rabbits in Dengzhou Mountain for two days.

The bandits and bandits hiding in the mountains of Dengzhou fled in despair, and they didn't know how they provoked this group of crazy soldiers in such a poor place.

I can't go on a good road, I don't go into the city, I don't train, what's the matter with running around the mountains in winter?

The bandits, who had been angry for many years, immediately packed up their baggage, ran away in the dark, and went to the county seat to work for a short time to repair the city wall.

If Lu Xu hadn't known about it in advance, the doorbeam bandits who ran the tea shed on the official road would have almost run away.

Lu Xu hasn't arrived yet, and the Xiao cavalry can only wait, they don't have much food to bring, so they simply learn from these bandits to catch rabbits all over the mountain.

They also watched how the bandits built a tea shed, and then they were very bored and came up to take a hand.

The bandits in the door beam reciprocated the favor, gave them fire and water every day, and also used the seasoning that Lu Xu left for them to open a restaurant in the future to help the Xiao cavalry roast rabbits.

The Xiao cavalry found that this group of bandits couldn't build a house, but they had a hand in roasting rabbits, and they had a lot of spices on their hands.

It just so happened that they didn't bring a gang with them this time, just like that, they tacitly divided labor, the cavalry army was all over the mountain to catch rabbits, and the door beam bandits were in charge.

When Lu Xu and the others arrived, the Xiao cavalry army had helped them build a small courtyard - the Xiao cavalry army camped in the courtyard at night.

Lu Xu took the small grain merchants who wanted to do business with the Xiao cavalry army in Guanyang to meet the grain officials, and the small grain merchants were trembling when they saw them in military uniforms, for fear that they would be dragged out and stabbed if they said the wrong thing.

In these barren mountains and mountains, killing them is at most a matter of burial.

The grain officials did not look down on these small grain merchants, and first declared that they had to pay on credit first, and then pay when the imperial court paid them.

The small grain merchants originally planned to learn from Lu Xu to use grain as a stepping stone, and asked them tremblingly if they could sell grain to Shuozhou, not only to the Xiao cavalry, but also to civilians.

The grain officer naturally agreed.

They are not the only ones who are short of food in Shuozhou, "but you have to prepare your own paperwork." ”

Although merchants are free, they must report to the government in advance where they go to trade, and they can only report to the government at their place of origin, and they must also have the consent of the government of the destination to do business in the local area.
