Chapter 37: The Gathering of the Immortals
The new plaque of the restaurant took two days to make it out quickly, and on the ninth day, the new "Fenggong Building" was officially opened.
In the early stage, because of Shi Changyun's face, many people came to cheer, so in the first few days, he rejected several batches of guests, which made Liu Chu a little embarrassed, looking at those uncles and uncles, Liu Chu promised them that they would give them a six-fold discount next time they came to eat, and those uncles and uncles praised Liu Chu for being a businessman and a man, and left with a smile after saying congratulations.
I thought that the momentum would go down in a few days, but I didn't expect the business to be very hot, and I inquired about it to find out that Fenggonglou has a good reputation in the past few days, mainly because of the variety of dishes, which are sufficient and cheap.
Liu Chu couldn't help but be secretly proud, with the army, the emphasis is on how to make people full, and only when they are full can they have the strength to fight, so the fried dishes are all sufficient, the taste is not bad, the price is fair, and people are of course willing to come back to be repeat customers.
Liu Chu watched Fenggonglou getting on the right track, and he was also relieved in his heart, he admitted that the successful operation of the restaurant had a certain element of luck in it, and it was also indispensable to the help of Shi Changyun, but he was already very happy to be able to do this.
There is still a week, Liu Chu is about to set off for the Linglu Academy, he is full of curiosity about the Minglu Academy, it is said that there are young talents from all over the world, I don't know where he went, how many can he rank?
Liu Chu thought, shouldn't we call a few classmates to come over and rub together? Xi Feichen, Ye Xiaoguang, Li Baixiao, Zhiyi Monk, Xie Xianning, Wei Suo, and Gan Chengyuan and Hao Hongji, one of these two people ranked fifth, the other ranked tenth, their strength was mediocre, and they were low-key, Gan Chengyuan could rank fifth, luck accounted for a large part, and his strength was in the middle of Hao Hongji.
In addition, there are the top five people in the literary examination and the top five in the martial arts examination, the top five in this single subject are individuals, Liu Chu is not familiar with it, but he only knows the names of some people, but he will definitely be classmates in the future, and it is better to shout together to be lively.
These people came from other places, and there were no local people in Chang'an, so they basically lived in places arranged by the government, and they also received different degrees of silver rewards through their rankings, which was enough for them to live until mid-March.
Liu Chu said that he would do it, and he went to contact these people one by one on the same day, because although they were all arranged by the government, they were not in the same place, some were in Xing'an City, some were in Fu'an City, and some were in Tai'an City and Sheng'an City, so Liu Chu spent almost a day to make an appointment with everyone.
The next day, the restaurant announced that it would be closed for one day, only entertaining these future classmates, and for the guests who came to dinner, Liu Chu also instructed the guys to apologize and send them away.
Liu Chu also brought Xiao Ning and Lu Youwei with him, these two guys wanted to come to eat with a dead face, and they were so familiar with each other, Liu Chu couldn't refuse.
In the evening, these future classmates arrived as promised, and Liu Chu emptied the entire hall and put together six tables in a two-by-three fashion, enough to seat more than twenty people.
The wine and food have long been ordered to be prepared in the kitchen, and when everyone is ready, they can be served directly, and the speed of serving is also first-class, and the kung fu of less than a stick of incense is basically ready, a full sixty dishes, the whole room is filled with the fragrance of dishes, and everyone is dripping.
"Don't talk nonsense, respect our classmates!" Liu Chu raised his glass, and everyone got up and toasted and drank it all.
"Let's eat!" Liu Chu smiled and put down the wine glass, and everyone began to feast.
Knock knock knock......
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, which made Liu Chu very puzzled, he ordered the guy to stand outside to thank the guests, how could anyone still knock on the door?
Liu Chu was puzzled, motioned for everyone to eat first, he left, and then came to the door, opened the door, and found a slightly hunched old man standing at the door with his hands in his sleeves, and when he saw Liu Chu open the door, he smiled at him.
"Old man, who are you?" Liu Chu didn't know this old man, looked at the guy on the side, and also showed a helpless look, explained, and said that the old man had to go in.
"Old man, do you want to eat?" Liu Chu looked at the old man's appearance, and he didn't want to be a person who asked for food, but he looked like an old-timer from a famous nobleman.
"Under Li Dawen, passing by by accident, smelling the food is very fragrant, today is a sting, the old man I have something to go home late, it is estimated that there is no food at home, I want to find something to eat on the road, and then go home to sleep. It is convenient to add a person, and you can pay for it. Li Dawen shook the money bag on his waist.
"If you don't have money, it's too cheesy, and if you add a pair of chopsticks, it's good to give one hundred and eighty taels. Liu Chu stared at the money bag and said with a smile.
"......" Li Dawen.
"Just kidding, old man, please come in. "Liu Chu saw that it was late, and the old man must have no calories in his body if he didn't eat, so he added a pair of chopsticks, such a kind-looking old man, everyone shouldn't mind.
"This old man smelled that the food in the restaurant was too fragrant, and couldn't help but want to come and have a meal, let's move the land?" Liu Chu smiled and introduced Li Dawen's situation.
Everyone laughed and moved their seats to squeeze out a spot.
Li Dawen glanced at everyone, nodded his head to express his gratitude, and nodded twice when his eyes fell on Lu Youwei.
Lu Youwei rolled his eyes, he didn't give Li Dawen a good face, Liu Chu and they couldn't recognize Li Dawen, would Lu Youwei not recognize him? Isn't this the old dean of the Lulu Academy.
"Change, young man, you see that it seems a little more appropriate for us two old fellows to sit together. The old dean walked to Lu Youwei's side and said to Ye Xiaoguang, who was sitting next to Lu Youwei.
Ye Xiaoguang nodded, and gave up his position without saying a word, and the old dean sat down with a smile, and began to move chopsticks after expressing his gratitude again.
"Old immortal, what are you doing here?" Lu Youwei asked in an angry whisper.
"This is not their party, I'll take a look, after all, these children are the pillars of the future Great Wei. The old dean smacked a screw and felt full of taste.
Lu Youwei rolled his eyes again, and he ate the rice, and said it so high-soundingly.
Knock knock knock......
At this moment, there was another knock on the door, and Liu Chu, with a touch of doubt, ran out to open the door again, and found that it was a woman of the same age as him.
"Are you?" Liu Chu was sure that he had never met this woman.
"Hello, my name is Chen Mo, passing by here, I smelled the aroma of the food, and I couldn't help but look for it, can I go in and eat some together?"
"Uh......" Liu Chu felt that this was very familiar? It was similar to what the old man named Li Dawen said just now, could it be that the two were related to their grandsons? This is a partnership to come over to eat?
But Liu Chu looked at Chen Mo's dress, he also looked like a rich child, he shouldn't have come to eat on purpose, could it be that this dress is rented?
"Yes? I can pay, it's too late, I haven't eaten dinner yet, I'm hungry. Chen Mo looked at Liu Chu aggrievedly.
"Okay, okay, add a pair of chopsticks. Liu Chu finally relented and agreed to her.
"Ahem, that, let me introduce you, this is Chen Mo, my friend, I happened to come to me today, everyone move the ground and make a place to come out. ”
Liu Chu said that Chen Mo was his friend, and if he said that Chen Mo and Li Dawen were here to eat, it is estimated that they would have an opinion.
"Such a beautiful beauty, welcome welcome. Someone smiled and took the initiative to greet Chen Mo.
Chen Mo showed a standard dimple smile, and many male compatriots looked straight at it. Wei Suo, this kid is really worthy of his obscene nickname, he held a piece of meat with chopsticks for a long time, and he was stunned, and his saliva was left.
"You see, young and beautiful women are still popular, but when I came in, old man, I didn't get much of a warm welcome. Li Dawen gnawed on a meat bone and poked Lu Youwei on the side.
"Eat less, seventy or eighty, eat so much, and I'm not afraid that indigestion will kill you!" Lu Youwei said angrily.
"What the hell do you want to do, why is she here?" Lu Youwei continued.
"How do I know, I didn't lie to you, I didn't know she would come, and if she did, I wouldn't come. Li Dawen said, at this time he saw Chen Mo smiling and winking at him, and Li Dawen also smiled and nodded in response.
"Alas. Lu Youwei shook his head and stopped talking.
Knock knock knock......
As soon as Liu Chu sat down, the stool was not hot, and someone knocked on the door again.
Liu Chu frowned, what is the situation, one after another people visited, no matter who came next, he didn't accept it, and directly bombed people away!
Worked hard to organize a meal, tired for two days and one night, not to say, to the point of eating, I wanted to sit down and eat some food to treat myself, but now the time to sit down is not necessarily a minute, chopsticks are picked up and put down, a mouthful of food is not clipped, until now there is nothing in the stomach, just loaded a small glass of wine just drunk, the stomach is uncomfortable, the heart is also uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry, Fenggong Building is closed to the public today, if you want to eat, please go elsewhere. Don't make up excuses like smelling the food and being hungry, bother you to turn around and ......"
Liu Chu opened the door and said a lot of words directly, but when he looked up carefully, he was shocked by the person in front of him, it turned out to be ......
The words almost came out of his mouth, but the man put his finger in front of his mouth and made a silent motion.
Liu Chu immediately shut up, and those two words were not spoken.
Chen ...... Master Chen, are you coming to dinner?" Liu Chu thought for a long time, and then came up with such a suitable title.
The man was stunned for a moment, but Chen Ye still responded with a smile.
Liu Chu didn't dare to slack off, and led him in, when everyone's eyes were cast here, Liu Chu felt that his scalp was numb, and he brought in another one, which seemed a little embarrassed, but he still coughed twice and said the words that he had thought of for a moment.
"That, this is a distant relative of mine, it's an uncle of mine, the kind of next generation, come to see me today, just in time for dinner, why don't you move a place and eat together?"
However, everyone still cooperated very well to move the chair and make room for the "Chen Ye" in Liu Chu's mouth.
The words almost came out of his mouth, but the man put his finger in front of his mouth and made a silent motion.
Liu Chu immediately shut up, and those two words were not spoken.
