Chapter 11 Extraordinary
"Okay, don't say more, when will it officially open, I'll also have lunch, your third uncle and I have a good relationship." Lin Zhutou drank all the tea in the cup, lifted the official knife on the table and prepared to leave.
"Isn't this already open?" Liu Yuan said a little strangely, pointing to the door.
But he was curious about Lin Zhutou's good relationship with his third uncle, that old liar was as timid as a mouse, and he dared to attack the official family?
"Is this open?" I don't see that there is anyone in your store, and I thought it was ......" Lin Zhutou's words said this, and Liu Yuan showed a hint of embarrassment and politeness at the right time.
"Alas, something is wrong, since you are opening a new inn with a new name, why do you have to have some firecrackers and other ceremonies. Lin Zhutou finally realized where the strangeness was.
"yes, I didn't think of that. Hearing this, Liu Yuan's eyes lit up, only to realize that he had forgotten the most critical point, that he had no experience in opening an inn for the first time.
Leaving Liu Yuan still standing in place and thinking, Lin Zhutou had already stepped on the official knife and left.
When Liu Yuan reacted, he remembered that the pot of Pu'er he had made for Lin Zhutou just now had not been paid, so he would talk about it next time, and he would not give tea money if he wanted to come to a county to catch his head.
The eldest lady upstairs was still asleep, and everything could only be decided when she woke up.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the inn now, Liu Yuan quietly hid behind the counter and took out the pendant to see what daily tasks he had today.
However, the basic and adventure level tasks have not changed, and it is still for him to clean the entire inn and entertain a distinguished guest.
As for the elite column, it was the task he received yesterday, showing the unfinished and a 1/10 symbol, which probably made it clear that the pendant counted the eldest lady upstairs as the first guest of his inn.
Some disappointed Liu Yuan, and thought that he could get another one today, as for the basic-level task, the matter of the eldest lady upstairs was not solved, he didn't really want to clean, in fact, he was mainly lazy.
I looked over and over again, and found that there was nothing new, and just put the pendant away, and when I got up straight, I saw Zheng Dongxi walking in from the door with a water spirit dish in his hand.
With Lin Zhutou's inadvertent reminder, Liu Yuan planned to hold a ceremony today, and if there was no chef for the time being, he would go on his own first, and use the dishes he bought back to make a few dishes, focusing on boiled fish with seven perfumes.
"Shopkeeper, the vegetables have been bought, you can see if it's okay. Zheng Dongxi carried the dish and gestured in front of Liu Yuan's eyes.
There was sweat of excitement on his face, and the fledgling young man was motivated, Liu Yuan thought in his heart and said with a smile: "I'll see it's okay, let's go buy some firecrackers or something." ”
"Alas. Zheng Dongxi agreed, turned half of his body and was about to leave, his eyebrows straightened and he felt that something was wrong, and said: "Is the shopkeeper so calling, why didn't you say you wanted to buy firecrackers just now." ”
"There's no business in the nearest inn where you ran the hall, so I'm not allowed to let you practice your legs. It is impossible for Liu Yuan to say that he only thought of it, so it would be a loss of the majesty of the shopkeeper, so he said as a matter of course.
In fact, Liu Yuan still has a psychology that he doesn't even know about, that is, he wants to torture Zheng Shi, who called him, a disciple of the Divine Thief Sect, stole half of Liu Yuan's net worth.
For the time being, I haven't thought of a good way to get my money back, so let's do it first.
Okay, it's just leg training, Zheng thought so, turned around and went out again.
Taking advantage of Zheng Dong's going out, Liu Yuan came out with a menu on the counter according to the dishes he bought.
Since I don't have many dishes that I can cook, I don't have many dishes for the time being.
Liu Yuan carved a small wooden plaque for each dish, put on a red rope and hung it on the beam above the counter, and the middle was the boiled fish with seven fragrances, which was hung in the middle as the head card of their inn.
The brown wooden plaque was engraved with small characters and painted with cinnabar, and it looked like it was good.
It's really tiring to not be able to recruit guys, you have to do everything by yourself, Liu Yuan, who was already washing vegetables in the kitchen and preparing to cook, thought to himself.
At this time, Zheng Dongxi came back with the firecrackers he bought, and there was no one in the lobby, so he came to the kitchen as soon as he slipped away, and sure enough, he found the shopkeeper.
As soon as the two of them put it together, they planned to light a firecracker and listen to it first.
Zheng was timid, and as soon as he lit the fire, he quickly threw it out, but who knew that it happened to be thrown under Liu Fufeng's hooves.
Liu Shufeng didn't look at it, and when he stepped down, the good guy was trampled on, and the donkey still snorted twice in his mouth, and he didn't realize it.
"Look at you coward, I'll come. Liu Yuan took one, lit it and threw it nearby.
Not to mention that this thing is really loud, just listen to the bang, the eldest lady lying on the third floor turned over and was still asleep, and I don't know if I heard the movement.
At noon, everything was almost ready, and Liu Yuan walked out of the door of the inn with two strings of firecrackers and Zheng Dongxi.
One left and one right hung on both sides of the gate, lit at the same time, and then Zheng Dongxi began to beat gongs and drums, shouting in his mouth The first inn in the world is officially opened today.
Sure enough, this movement attracted a lot of passers-by, and it was time to eat, and some people looked in curiously towards the name of the world's first.
"Yo, I remembered, isn't this the Good Fate Inn that ate human life before, it turned out to be a change of owner. ”
Someone in the crowd of onlookers said this, gossip can be completely beyond the truth, and at this time, in the hearts of the onlookers, this inn has eaten people to death.
As soon as someone said this, many people immediately hesitated.
It's not that I'm really afraid that the store dares to sell poisonous dishes for people to eat, so there is no Wang Fa, but the common people don't just want to be auspicious, and no one is willing to go if they hear that a restaurant has eaten people to death.
Seeing that it was not a way to go on like this, Liu Yuan took the gong and drum in Zheng Dongxi's hand with one hand, and roared with a bang: "The past has passed, and now the inn has changed owners, it is by no means the same as before, on the first day of our opening, all dishes and wines are half price, and each table is given an appetizer." ”
There are some things that no one believes when you say that the sky is broken, or you have to come to something practically affordable, and when you hear that you will send side dishes at half price, some people are moved.
According to the cabin, the scene was silent for about a minute, and finally there were the first people to walk into the inn.
Zheng Dongxi happily went to greet the guests, and Liu Yuan stayed where he was and shouted: "Passing by is fate, if you miss it, there will be no next time, half price, half price, half price." ”
My voice was almost hoarse, and finally two more people came in, probably three guests are the limit of today.
Don't be in a hurry to come step by step, if there are three a day, there will be twenty-one in seven days, the point is to stabilize the three of them today, Liu Yuan took the matter and returned to the inn, ready to start busy.
Zheng Dongxi arranged for the three guest officers to sit in the center of the lobby, and Liu Yuan smiled at them one by one.
Since Zheng didn't understand much about things, Liu Yuan said personally: "If you want to eat something, look at the signature dishes of our store." "Reaching out and pointing to the wooden sign hanging above the counter, it is a veritable signboard.
"It's kind of interesting. An unnamed guest said.
There were a total of nine brands, and the guests had no good choice for a while, so Liu Yuan said again: "Try our top brand, the seven-perfume boiled fish in the middle." ”
"How much silver is a bowl?" As soon as he heard that it was the top card, the guest was obviously interested in asking.
Liu Yuan really hadn't thought about this problem beforehand, but it definitely couldn't be cheap.
First, this dish is really not ordinary, the materials are also exquisite, it is the most tender part of a grass carp, and all the spines are removed to ensure the smooth and tender taste, and it is cheap and does not reflect the name of the first brand of this dish.
"A thousand dollars, that is, one tael of silver. Liu Yuan thought about it in his heart, and raised a finger and said.
As soon as he said this, he and the three guests were taken aback at the same time, they didn't expect that a boiled fish would cost one or two silver, and they had never eaten such an expensive fish.
How much is a tael of silver worth, let's put it this way, Zheng Dongxi's salary in a month is only 500 yuan, and the donkey in the backyard stable was bought by Liu Yuan for two taels of silver.
"I heard you right. It was another guest who had no name who spoke, and even Zheng Shishi secretly smacked his tongue.
However, what Zheng Dongxi was thinking about was a tael of silver boiled fish, and the shopkeeper was willing to be half with him, what a good person.
"Hehe, that's right, half price today, that is, five hundred yuan, the boiled fish in our world's first inn must be different from other houses, I guarantee that you will not regret eating it." ”
Liu Yuan gave a general introduction, and he didn't want to say more.
In the end, the man only ordered an ordinary dish, and did not dare to provoke the top brand, thinking about which fool had to eat a bowl of boiled fish for a tael of silver.
The two people who came together finished ordering, and there was still a third guest officer left, only to hear the man say slowly: "The boiled fish with seven perfumes, I'll eat it." ”
The fool came so quickly, the nameless guest said secretly in his heart.
"Well, you won't regret it. Liu Yuan was a little happy, wrote down the dishes and went to the back kitchen to cook, leaving Zheng Dongxi to greet him with tea and water.
Assorted cold dishes, braised pork, green bamboo shoots and fungus were served on the table one by one, Liu Yuan lived alone in those years, and his cooking skills were not as good as those of famous chefs, but the taste was okay.
Soon, after the two guests who came together ate these dishes, they were not so curious about the top dish in their hearts, after all, judging from these dishes, it was just like that.
"What's this, what does it smell like?" Suddenly, one of the guests put down his chopsticks and sniffed vigorously.
"It's so fragrant!" said one of the next to him, swallowing.
"Seven perfume boiled fish, come on. Zheng Dongxi held a wooden tray in his hand, on which was a blue and white porcelain bowl, and a small wooden lid carved with a water lotus flower picture was carved on the bowl.
Placing the tray in front of the guest's table, Zheng Shixi gently lifted the wooden cover, "Please use it slowly." Suddenly, the refreshing aroma spread, and the three of them could smell a variety of different aromas from this dish at the same time, rich but not crooked.
Taking a deep breath, the taste seemed to be swirling in the stomach, and the gluttonous worms were everywhere, and I couldn't suppress it even if I swallowed my saliva.
Looking at the dish in front of him, the eyes of the guests who came alone lit up, and they were very satisfied that they hadn't eaten yet.
Looking at the two next to him, they were unbearable, smelling the smell and standing up, closing his eyes and looking intoxicated.
After cleaning up and wiping his wet hands, Liu Yuan walked from the backyard to the lobby.
Looking at the scene in front of him, he was also very satisfied, and he dared to guarantee that the dish just now was the pinnacle that he could achieve according to that recipe now.
But he still didn't show the whole picture of this dish, after all, he didn't have internal strength, and some of the processes on the recipe couldn't be done.
Hearing the footsteps, the two guests who stood up hurriedly opened their eyes and said, "Shopkeeper, hurry up, just give us a copy of this card." "Fool No. 2 is here.
"Oh, I'm really sorry, the top brand has only prepared one today, if you want to eat it, you will come back tomorrow. Liu Yuan smiled slightly.
"It smells so good. The guest who came alone put aside the pepper and celery on the spicy soup, picked up a piece of tender fish fillet, and sighed softly.
