The two most important things to open a store are the items to be sold and the customers.

Of course, the food shop sells food, and for the ingredients, they have also put a lot of effort and spent a lot of money.

As for the meat, it was basically the meat of the demon beasts they had hunted in the mountains before, and the vegetarian spent a lot of money to purchase a large number of spiritual rice and spiritual vegetables at a farm in the Ten Rings.

More expensive than meat.

As for the guests, the publicity has already been done, and they can't do anything if they don't come to the door without guests.

Seeing that everyone was depressed and talked for a long time, but they didn't get to the point, Lu Taozhi pointed it out directly.

"We still need a chef with excellent cooking skills, and we have already planned the future business route when we chose the store before - the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, but now even the fragrance has not been transmitted, how can we attract customers?"

Although Sinan's barbecue skills are good, and Sun Qin's miscellaneous pot has also made great progress, he is still 108,000 miles away from the chef's level.

The three things of color and fragrance account for one taste.

Hearing Lu Taozhi's words, everyone sighed in unison.

Hai Feiyu pondered for a long time and said, "Why don't I go to my restaurant to recruit a chef?"

Lu Taozhi directly refused, "If you use your chef, is this your family's business or ours? And aren't you just trying to be self-reliant and open a store with us?"

Hai Feiyu grabbed his head, and the donkey skills were poor.

The others frowned, but couldn't figure out where to find a chef.

The real chefs are in big restaurants and shops, which are so easy to dig, and even if people are willing to come, they are reluctant to pay the high wages.

Definitely more expensive than renting a store.

Since the opening of the store, it has cost 50,000 spirit stones just to buy spiritual rice, spiritual vegetables, pots and pans and other kitchen utensils with fresh-keeping locks like gongxiang, plus the 36,000 for renting the store, it has already cost 86,000.

Although this little spirit stone is nothing to everyone who has a small net worth now, it is only a little more than 10,000 yuan evenly distributed to everyone, but you can't spend it indiscriminately if you have money.

I didn't get the spirit stone in the account.

The spirit stone that Lu Taozhi has in hand has to wait to participate in the auction later.

Syllable!

While everyone was thinking sadly, Lu Taozhi suddenly slapped the table and stood up.

"Let's go find a mortal chef, the imperial chef in the palace, and we can afford the wages of mortals. ”

It was a good idea, but there was little hope.

Even if you can really find a mortal chef, but mortals don't have aura, and they can't even cut the meat of demon beasts, how can they cook it?

Mortals don't have a spiritual fire yet.

Lu Taozhi did what he said, and directly sent a message to call a young mortal.

This person's name is Zheng Cheng, he worked very hard when he built a house before, and he also has a lot of appeal among mortals, so Lu Taozhi paid special attention to it and gave him a positioning card.

When I asked someone to distribute flyers before, I also asked Zheng Cheng to find someone to do it.

A fat paper crane trembled out of Lu Tao's hand.

A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Cheng came sweating profusely.

Seeing that there was no customer in the store, Zheng Cheng thought that Lu Taozhi was looking for him to ask for guilt, and the sweat on his forehead was even more.

"Immortal Master Lu, I found 388 people to distribute leaflets according to your instructions, and everyone is not lazy, they are still working. ”

Seeing that he was so nervous, Lu Taozhi smiled and said: "I'm relieved that I'll hand out the flyers to you, I am very relieved, I called you here for something else this time, do you know who among the mortals has the best cooking skills? ”

Zheng Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it seriously, and soon his eyes lit up, but the brilliance in his eyes quickly dimmed.

"The little one remembered that one person was quite in line with the requirements of the immortal master, but he still forgot it, and he didn't say it as a small one. ”

Hearing this, Hai Feiyu was not happy, "You have said everything, and you have never said anything, and you haven't said it quickly, who is it." ”

Although Hai Feiyu was only at the third level of Qi training, he was a monk after all, and he had the momentum of a rich child, which directly frightened Zheng Cheng.

"There is a man named Bao Gui in the East Broken Temple of the Ten Ring City, who was originally the imperial chef of the Tang Emperor, but he came to Tang City to become a monk by chance.

It is said that he used to be a strong man in the Jindan period, but because he was arrogant, he offended people and was seriously injured. ”

After listening, Hai Feiyu's brows furrowed, "That person named Bao Gui, the person who offended is very powerful?"

Zheng Cheng shook his head, "I don't know about this little one, and these things are also spread by that Bao Gui when he usually chatters, and the big guys don't take it very seriously, and the little ones don't know if it's true or not."

However, Bao Gui has lived in the broken temple for several years, and he has not seen any immortal masters go to trouble him.

Moreover, this Bao Gui is extremely difficult to get along with, even if he falls, he is very arrogant. ”

At this moment, Zheng Cheng regretted mentioning this person a little, if this Bao Gui offended the immortal master and implicated him, then he would be unjustly killed.

Lu Taozhi made up his mind to meet this Bao Gui for a while, gave Zheng Cheng half a spirit stone, and asked him to lead the way.

Bai Rou'er hugged Lu Taozhi's thighs and coquettishly, "Senior sister, you can take me along." ”

The innocent star-eyed attack, Lu Taozhi didn't resist at all, and said with a smile: "Then let's go." ”

Everyone else was left in the store, waiting for non-existent customers.

......

The temple is broken in the east of the tenth ring city.

Originally, there were several beggars living in the ruined temple, but they all went out to work, and a sloppy bearded man slept inside.

"Immortal Master Lu, this is Bao Gui. Zheng Cheng said to the man.

The movement of the three of them walking in was not small, and now Zheng Cheng's voice was even more small, but Bao Gui continued to sleep in the haystack without hearing it.

Lu Taozhi was so smoked by the strange smell inside that he directly shielded his sense of smell with aura, and then asked, "Bao Gui, you were really the imperial chef of the Tang Emperor before?"

Bao Gui still ignored it, and turned over irritably, exposing his back to everyone.

Although Lu Taozhi was not angry, Zheng Cheng's heart was beating for a while, if the immortal master was really angry and pinched them mortals to death, the City Lord's Mansion would not care.

The so-called Tang City does not allow private fighting and killing, it is only effective for monks, and in the eyes of the City Lord's Mansion, these mortals are just a group of ants.

"Bao Gui, the immortal master asked you something, hurry up and reply. Zheng Cheng directly dragged Bao Gui up from the haystack.

Bao Gui got up helplessly, and glanced at Lu Taozhi disdainfully, "You little girl, don't waste your efforts, there are more monks who come to Po Temple every month and want to invite me to be a chef, if I really want to be a cook, can it be your turn to invite?"

Lu Taozhi looked at him with his spiritual eyes, "In this way, you are really good at cooking, as long as you are willing to come to my shop as a cook, I can let you re-cultivate." ”

Bao Gui's cloudy eyes lit up with a light, and quickly extinguished, "What if I can cultivate again, it's not that my great revenge can't be avenged, please go back." ”
