Chapter 11, the restaurant turmoil
On the official road of Baitu Town, Cao Ziying carried the wild boar king weighing thousands of catties on her back and walked forward slowly. Because the wild boar king is too heavy, Cao Ziying will definitely step out of a deep pit on the ground with every step, one pit at a time, which is very embarrassing.
Cao Ziying instilled a lot of true qi in her feet, and then her steps were much brisker, and every time she landed, she only stepped out of shallow footprints and was able to walk quickly.
After a meal, Cao Ziying carried the wild boar king to the most prosperous cross street in Baitu Town.
The vendors and pedestrians on the street looked stupid. A beautiful girl, a brown boar the size of a hill with a hideous face. The difference between the two is like heaven and earth, never on a parallel line.
But everyone saw it with their own eyes, and what was even more incredible was that this giant boar the size of a mountain was carried on the shoulders of a beautiful girl, and everyone rubbed their eyes, yes, it was actually carried on the shoulders. Everyone looked at Cao Ziying with the eyes of a monster, and secretly said in their hearts: "Is this girl's body made of iron? How can she carry such a big wild boar?"
Ignoring everyone's strange gazes, Cao Ziying carried the Wild Boar King and walked straight to the "Drunken Immortal Tower".
Zuixian Lou is the largest restaurant in Baitu Town, with three floors up and down, and often full of diners. Wealthy officials in many states and counties also used to drink and have fun here. The reason for this is that the two signature dishes of Zuixian Lou, "Pan-fried Tonghua Fish" and "Called Flower Chicken", make the mouth fragrant and have an endless aftertaste.
Cao Ziying looked at the huge plaque above her head with the three gilded characters of "Drunken Immortal Building", and gently put the wild boar king aside.
Xiao Er, who ran the hall, saw that there was suddenly one more person at the door, and hurriedly came out to greet him, only to see a dead giant wild boar lying at the door, and a beautiful girl standing next to the wild boar asked, "Does the girl want to eat or stay in the hotel?"
"Neither", Cao Ziying shook her head and pointed to the wild boar king, "I want to sell this wild boar to your store."
"Oh, girl, wait here for a while, I'll ask for the cabinet!" Xiao Er looked at the wild boar king the size of a small mountain, unable to make up his mind, and said a little embarrassed.
"Hmm!" Cao Ziying replied casually.
Xiao Er walked into the hall and muttered a few words to a slightly chubby middle-aged man who looked like a pipe cabinet. The tube cabinet glanced at Cao Ziying suspiciously, and under the leadership of Xiao Er, they walked outside the door together.
The shopkeeper looked at the wild boar king carefully, and said secretly in his heart: "This is the legendary Mixed Heaven Spirit Pig King!" The shopkeeper was happy in his heart, but on the surface he asked quietly: "Girl, are you going to sell this wild boar?"
"Exactly. ”
"How much silver does the girl want to sell?"
"How much is the shopkeeper willing to give?"
"How about fifty taels of silver?"
"Deal!"
"Hahaha! The girl is really a cheerful person. Little two, go to the tent and take fifty taels of silver for this girl. The shopkeeper was overjoyed and commanded.
Xiao Er agreed, turned around and entered the hall, and after a while, Xiao Er walked away with a lacquer plate, and a large ingot of horseshoe silver was placed on the plate.
The shopkeeper took the big ingot of silver, stuffed it into Cao Ziying's hand, and pretended to be bold: "This ingot of silver belongs to you, girl." All the girl's expenses in the restaurant today are all on my head. Xiao Er, greet this girl well, don't slack off. ”
Xiao Er answered and led Cao Ziying into the restaurant.
The shopkeeper looked at the wild boar king the size of a hill, and secretly said proudly in his heart: "This country stupid girl is very stupid." Fifty taels of silver sold the Pig King to me. She knew how precious it was. The meat of the Mixed Heaven Spirit Pig King has a strong attraction to martial artists below the Martial Mountain Realm, which can enhance internal strength and quickly increase strength. When the time comes, if I sell the Pig King of the Heavenly Spirit in two, one or two pieces of meat and a hundred taels of silver, won't I be able to make a net profit of five million taels of silver?"
Cao Ziying followed Xiao Er into the restaurant, but the first and second floors were full, and Xiao Er led Cao Ziying to the third floor.
The third floor was empty, and Cao Ziying found a seat by the window and sat down.
"What do you want to eat, do you want to come to a table at the special banquet?" Waiting for Cao Ziying to sit down, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted her and asked diligently.
"What is a grand banquet?" Cao Ziying asked curiously.
"The so-called grand banquet is the most luxurious and delicious table in the hotel. The appetizer of the banquet is an appetizer called 'gold inlaid jade'. Perforate the bean sprouts with a silver needle, and then stuff the shredded beef for cooking, the bean sprouts are crystal clear, and the beef is fried in light oil until golden brown, so it is called 'gold inlaid jade'. The main course is the restaurant's signature dishes 'Pan-fried Tonghua Fish' and 'Called Flower Chicken', as well as dozens of delicacies such as bird's nest snow clams, ginseng stewed chicken, braised beef head, hump elephant pull, abalone and pork wings, etc., and the fruits after the meal are grapes and cantaloupe from the Western Regions.
Cao Ziying waited for Xiao Er to finish saying a large list of dish names before she cautiously asked, "Then, this table of dishes must be extremely expensive?"
"It's just 10,000 taels of silver, today's shopkeeper's treat, why should the girl save money for him. The girl waited a moment, and the food and wine came up immediately. Xiao Er replied with a smile, turned around and went downstairs.
Cao Ziying smiled bitterly and shook her head, 10,000 taels of silver, ordinary people can't earn so much money in ten lifetimes, so they actually let themselves eat one meal. It's really "Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road". Cao Ziying turned her head, her jade hand held her cheeks, and quietly looked at the bustling street downstairs, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a meal, Xiao Er walked upstairs with two food boxes, and served nine dishes from the food boxes, which were full of aroma, color, and flavor, which made people appetizing and salivating. Xiao Er ran eight or nine more times before he put the ninety-nine eighty-one delicacies on the square table in front of Cao Ziying.
Xiao Er took out another pot of wine and poured a glass for Cao Ziying. Cao Ziying drank it all, only to feel sweet and sour, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "What kind of wine is this?" ”
"The girl is blessed, this is the wine that my shopkeeper bought from the Persian Hu merchants, and it has only been introduced to the Central Plains in recent years, and a pot of 1,000 taels of silver is also a rare thing. Xiao Er replied.
Cao Ziying suddenly realized that it was a thing from the Western Regions, no wonder she had never seen it. Cao Ziying didn't ask any more, she raised her chopsticks and picked up a piece of "gold inlaid jade", and put it in her mouth.
Cao Ziying tasted the eighty-one dishes one by one, and she found that the chicken fat was not greasy, the aroma was overflowing, the mouth was fragrant, and the aftertaste was endless. The pan-fried tung fish is salty and sweet, tender and refreshing, which makes people unsatisfied. Dozens of other dishes also have their own strengths, and there are thousands of flavors, which make Cao Ziying feast and eat with relish.
An hour had passed, and Cao Ziying had already eaten the dishes on the table, and a pot of wine had already been drunk. Cao Ziying sat down on the chair contentedly, closing her eyes and resting.
Suddenly, a burst of men's sobs came into Cao Ziying's ears, Cao Ziying opened her eyes and saw that Xiao Er was covering her cheeks, her nose was blue and her face was swollen, as if she had been beaten severely.
Cao Ziying said curiously: "Didn't you go to find the shopkeeper?
"My mother is seriously ill and needs ten taels of silver to grab medicine. I went to borrow money from the shopkeeper, but instead of giving it, he asked someone to beat me!" Xiao Er covered his red and swollen cheeks and said angrily.
Cao Ziying took out the fifty taels of silver from her arms, put it in the small second-hand, and said, "Ah, take it! You can buy the rest of the money for a small sale, so why be angry under the hands of the shopkeeper!"
Xiao Er clenched the silver, suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, kowtowed to Cao Ziying, and cried: "Benefactor, you are my reborn parents, recreate my father and mother!
"What does a manly man look like when he cries and cries! A man has gold under his knees, and he only kneels to the prince of heaven and earth! What do you worship me, get up quickly!" Cao Ziying rebuked sternly.
Xiao Erqian went downstairs with great gratitude, and after a while, he brought a plate of grapes and a plate of cantaloupe, put them in front of Cao Ziying's table, and said sincerely: "Benefactor, the villain is leaving, great kindness, never dare to forget! The green mountains do not change, the green water always flows, and we are destined to see you again!"
"Okay, good, that's like a manly man. It is better to be the queen of the chicken, not the queen of the cow. You have your own ideas, it's good!" Cao Ziying nodded in satisfaction.
Xiao Er arched his hand at Cao Ziying, saluted, and then went downstairs.
After Cao Ziying waited for Xiao Er to leave, suddenly a man downstairs shouted: "Shop, look at the store!"
Cao Ziying looked out, and saw more than a dozen men in strong clothes standing downstairs, and everyone had a big "Cao" word printed on their chests. The shopkeeper hurriedly came to greet him and led everyone into the restaurant.
Cao Ziying said secretly in her heart: "Yanzhou Cao family, what are they doing here?
