On the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, it is appropriate to collect money and open the market. Early in the morning, there will be a lot of people at the pier. Today is the opening day of Baijia Restaurant. Since three days ago, there have been children singing along with each other on Fish Street and the pier. Nursery rhymes spread across the market. The content of the nursery rhymes is very simple. On the sixth day of December, the Baijia Restaurant opened auspiciously. On that day, all drinks and food are served at half price.

Not to mention some rich and noble families who often eat noodles in restaurants, even ordinary people with a few money can’t help but feel moved. They really don’t want to go to restaurants on weekdays, but half price!

It was enough for the children on the street to sing for three days. By the day of the opening, the Baijia Restaurant was already crowded with spectators. The guys welcomed them in and sat in the VIP room on the second floor.

I have to say that although Uncle Yulin is timid and has a vicious tongue, he is very good at training his staff, and he lives up to his reputation of “eating all the restaurants and restaurants in the imperial city”.The waiters that Bai Chunsheng bought back were trained behind closed doors by him for a period of time, and when they came out, they were all reborn as if they had been pierced by the soul of modern people, and each of them had a tongue so bright that they could pull Going out to talk about a few stand-up comics, his mouth is as sweet as honey, his movements are very smooth, and the name of the dish is like a rap, Bai Chunsheng gave a thumbs up to Uncle Yulin on the spot, promising that if he is the first If the restaurant’s business is good in a month, they will collectively increase their monthly payment next month!

He knows too well the importance of a salesman who is good at sales in a big restaurant like this!

The clerks in ordinary restaurants will always ask if they want drinks when they see customers. The clerks in big restaurants, when they catch a group of people to eat, open their mouths and ask the treaters whether they want high-quality wine or ordinary drinks. A table of guests asked for ordinary cheap drinks?

The clerk in an ordinary restaurant will only ask what dishes he wants when he sees a customer. The savvy guy in a big restaurant can recommend you from flying in the sky to swimming in the water. You can’t wait to mention every feature he mentioned. Come and taste all the dishes, that attitude is definitely not inferior to the group of people who sell special products on long-distance trains in later generations…

Boss Bai felt that if he didn’t give them a raise, he would be sorry for the wasted saliva these guys spend every day.

And his new shopkeeper, oh, maybe this should be the most distinguished shopkeeper in the entire dynasty, he was the county king who was conferred by the previous emperor himself!

Uncle Yulin Huang was also very satisfied with his new job, and even changed his pseudonym to Huang Yu. When Bai Chunsheng heard this pseudonym, he spit out the fish soup in his mouth in one gulp. Wang, even if the homonym of his real name is called Yulin, this pot must have been carried by the first emperor who named it. However, he finally changed his pseudonym, and the homonym is actually called Yellow Fish. I am afraid that this pot will not be shaken off, it must be Uncle Yuscale I carried it on my own.

On the first day of working, the shopkeeper Huang successfully sold all the steamed fish maw with bream sauce that was sold in limited quantities on the first day of their opening. One piece was priced at a high price of two taels of silver, just because the bream sauce was from the Baijia Restaurant. The bream sauce prepared by the family is completely different from the bream sauce sold outside~

Is it the same? Ordinary people may not be able to taste it. However, the guy with a lot of tongue stood beside him and enthusiastically explained the complicated hand-made process of this bream sauce. The guests at the table suddenly felt that this bream sauce was extraordinary. , a copy is only two taels of silver, I am sorry for the many hours spent by the family!

The distinguished guests upstairs were generous, and the business downstairs was also very prosperous. More than 30 tables were full, and the tables were turned over several times in a row. The sign of “today’s dishes are sold out”, the guys stood at the door, apologetic and sincerely apologized, saying that the restaurant only sells the fresh dishes of the day, and will not entertain new customers when they are sold out. If you have not eaten, please go early tomorrow .

“I told you earlier that if you let me be the shopkeeper, you will definitely not lose money. Take a look!” Uncle Yulin threw the brand-new account book in front of Bai Chunsheng, who opened it and looked, huh!In just one day, one-third of the account book has been recorded!

“Wine, dishes, and the sauces and chopped peppers from the consignment workshop in the store, the total is 390 taels, and there are some scattered copper coins. I don’t bother to count them. I throw them all in the jar. I will ask the accountant to pay attention later.” Make a careful calculation and enter it into the account.” The local tyrant emperor said that he didn’t have any opinions on copper coins, but that there was no such thing as “copper coins” in the face value of his old man’s calculation of coins~ completely negligible!

“Thank you, Uncle Huang, everyone has worked hard today. Since the dishes are sold out, everyone clean up and go back to rest early. Come over early tomorrow. I will let the accountant do the math and give everyone a welcome red envelope.” Bai Chunsheng I didn’t look at the account book carefully. Anyway, the accountant has to go to him to reconcile the account every month, so I am not in a hurry to read it now. Besides, everyone is exhausted on the first day of opening today. Although he doesn’t contribute much, but A distinguished guest came upstairs and wanted to see him, but he still wanted to see him.

The regular customers who often go to Bai’s restaurant know that he has a good relationship with Wang Dalang, and no one really dares to embarrass him. Most of them would make him drink a couple of glasses. I mixed it with water and drank it for several tables, and I was a little dizzy.

“I’ll take him back.” Wang Kunfeng suddenly appeared behind him at some point, and hugged his swaying body.

The guys next to him suddenly dispersed.

By God!It’s not that they don’t help their boss, it’s that Wang Dalang has a bad reputation, he looks very scary, no one in the whole fish street dares to provoke this guy, this Wang Dalang knows that he has ulterior motives for their boss… They, they I can only wish my boss and Wang Dalang a happy marriage for a hundred years o(╥﹏╥)o

“Hey! It’s not easy for the owner! If you want to gain a foothold on this pier, how can you do it without a backer? What’s more, in the business of eating and drinking, the last person you can’t offend is a local snake like Wang Dalang.” One thought he had guessed the inside story. The master sighed.

The family he used to work at also opened a food shop, and they were harassed by those street gangsters every three days. Later, the owner married his daughter to the son of a local local snake, and no one dared to eat in the family food shop anymore. It’s time to make trouble… Boss Bai is so young, he doesn’t look like he has a daughter to marry, so he has no choice but to go into battle by himself and feed the tiger with his body…

I just hope that Wang Dalang has a conscience and doesn’t abandon their boss all the time.

All the clerks silently wiped away bitter tears for the owner, quickly tidied up the store, and went home without mentioning it.

On the street, a certain clam that has completely become the most expensive is struggling desperately: “I don’t want to go home!”

“Hey~ Go back and boil water for you to make a hot soup, okay?” Uncle Cat coaxed with rare soft words.

The passing Yujie neighbors looked at the two of them with strange expressions… No matter how you look at it, Shopkeeper Bai is at a disadvantage, right?That Wang Dalang has always been a domineering man with a bad temper, and he doesn’t know what the shopkeeper Bai did in his previous life to be targeted by such a fierce cat demon. Devour it?

Otherwise, why deliberately get people drunk?

Bai Chunsheng felt his head was buzzing, the blood all over his body was boiling and screaming “Sleep, you are paralyzed and hey”, and he didn’t want to go home at all. It was the first time that Wang Kunfeng found this well-behaved mussel, and initiated The drunken madness turned out to be so hard to deal with. At first, he just struggled and refused to go home. Then he hugged a silk tree by the side of the road and yelled something like “sleep, you are paralyzed and hey”, and finally sang, What “men shouldn’t make women cry”, where did the women come from?

The narrow-minded uncle cat instantly became alert.

However, now is not the time to be jealous. Seeing that the eyes of the neighbors are not right, Mr. Mao reluctantly plucked the arms of the drunken clam spirit from the silk tree and wrapped them around his neck.Changing a tree, the clam spirit didn’t dislike it either, and wrapped its arms tightly around Master Mao’s neck. Perhaps it felt that the tree was too thin, and it was not safe to hold it, so it simply hung its legs firmly. On Master Mao’s crotch, the posture of the two of them… is really arousing people’s imagination.

“What are you looking at? Let’s dig out the eyes again!” Wang Kunfeng gave the gossip crowd a hard look.

All the neighbors immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

“You~ Let me see you drinking again in the future, and see how I punish you!” Wang Kunfeng helplessly tugged at the tips of Mussel Jing’s ears that turned red after being drunk, and sighed helplessly, just like this In an imaginative pose, he carried him all the way through the crowded fish street and returned home.

“Boss! Let’s have another plate of Ma Xiao!” As soon as he walked to the door, the drunk man in his arms raised his arms and shouted, almost staggering Mr. Mao, he hurriedly hugged the drunk man in his arms, and sweated profusely Carried him into the room, supported him with one hand, and took off the drunk man’s boots with the other hand, before putting him on the bed.

Did not let go.

Anyone who has served drunks probably knows that there is a kind of drunk who always wants to hold something in his hands when he is drunk, whether it is a person, or a tree, or an unknown gold sculpture of a local tyrant at the entrance of the KTV… In short, the Uncle Cat, who was tightly hugged by the drunkard, was dragged onto the bed by the drunk, and the two of them fell on top of each other. Uncle Cat groaned, and was almost smashed somewhere.

However, this drunk has not yet repented. His lips, which became hot after being drunk, caught the corners of his lips at some point, and his powerful arms moved from his neck to the back of his head in an instant, hugging his head, and grabbed his head almost fiercely. Touching the corner of his lips, prying open the corner of his lips, the dexterous tip of the tongue slid in along the gap like a swimming snake, greedily sucking the honey juice in his mouth, in the claustrophobic and quiet room, suddenly there was water that made people blush and heartbeat The sound of stains.

The uncle cat was sucked so viciously that his soul was almost sucked out, his knees were so weak from being sucked, and the fluffy cat fur on his legs was about to explode.

Drunk mussels are irrational, maybe the body fluid in their mouths has been sucked up, and the greedy little tongue has withdrawn again, and it ignites randomly along his chin and neck , Wang Kunfeng’s whole body was as hard as iron by him, and the whole cat was about to explode.

In the not-so-spacious room, the air suddenly became thinner.

After a long time, just when the two of them were about to wipe out their guns, the cat uncle with amazing perseverance grabbed the hand of the river mussel spirit that was groping on him, pressed it firmly to his side, bent down, and bit the river clam spirit viciously. The mussel essence had already become a little red and swollen lips. I wanted to bite it hard, but in the end I was reluctant. I just held the soft side in my mouth and sucked a few mouthfuls hard, making it even more red. Then I lifted the quilt and put This annoying mussel was wrapped tightly in the quilt, only the part above the nostrils was exposed.

“Huh?” The clam spirit was sealed by the quilt, struggled a few times and couldn’t break free, finally gave up struggling and fell into a deep sleep.

There was a small snoring sound from the clam spirit, with a strong smell of alcohol, and I don’t know how much I drank today.

This clam!Can’t drink but prefer to drink, every time I drink, I will be very drunk, and I will feel nothing after drinking, it is really annoying!

Sighing heavily, he tried to calm down the hotness in his body. Thinking that the two of them would be married in more than a month, Mr. Mao nodded with satisfaction at the white and tender tip of the mussel essence. On the wedding night, he could make some good wine Give this mussel a taste, after all, after drinking wine, this kind of mussel is much more enthusiastic than usual~

In the blink of an eye, it was before the New Year’s Eve, and the Fish Street was busier than before. Villagers from all over the world poured into the Fish Street. Some brought their own local products and sold some money to celebrate the New Year. With the money I earned in a year, I rushed to pull some new cloth for my family to make clothes before the year, and bought two catties of stove candy for the New Year to sacrifice to the Stove Lord. The streets were crowded with people.

The Baijia restaurant has been full since the morning, and the crowds gradually dissipated in the afternoon.

Just as Bai Chunsheng expected before, even though the Bai family opened a restaurant, the food shop business on Yujie Street was not affected. Not only was it not affected, but it was even more popular than before.

Most people probably have this kind of thinking. If you can’t afford big brands, it’s better to buy small brands from the same factory. After all, except for the brand and design, the materials are similar.Baijia restaurant and Baijia food shop, in the eyes of people from ten miles and eight towns, are the difference between international first-line brands and [-]-line niche brands of the same factory. Ok, this is a common thought of many people.

There are also those who are reluctant to eat at the food shop, so they simply go to the food shop to buy the secret sauce made by the Bai family, and then go home and DIY the unique steamed vegetables of the Bai family. The taste is excellent, and of course the price is at the level that ordinary people can only try something new every now and then during the Chinese New Year.

As for the Baijia Restaurant, under the hard work of Uncle Yulin, it has become the busiest restaurant in the whole wharf in just one month. After all, it is a cat from the imperial city who has seen the world. There are many novel tricks that are not available in the local area, and they recruited a group of storytellers to give lectures in the restaurant, and went to the kiln factory to order plates and plates that looked more high-end, which set off the dishes on the plates. How much, as the saying goes, people need clothes, and dishes need fancy dishes to increase the price, right?

Looking at the restaurant’s profit of a few thousand taels a month, Bai Chunsheng silently increased Uncle Yulin’s monthly money from 20 taels a month to five times in one breath, and other good performers also took the monthly money. The local tyrants came and went, and the guys yelled harder, because the shopkeeper said that if the restaurant’s business is good this month before the Chinese New Year, it will make more money than last month, and everyone will get red envelopes during the Chinese New Year.

He has taken back all the various sauces and pickles produced in the Bai family workshop and sold them himself. The reason is that his brother Kun accidentally discovered that the vendors who bought goods in their workshop took their jars and “trademarks”. I went outside and secretly found a kiln factory to imitate, and made a large number of imitation sauces and pickles with bad taste, and sold them outside mixed with the real ones, cough!The water bandits under him accidentally robbed a merchant ship, and only then did they discover the secret.

These traders are also cunning. They are worried that the people of the Bai family will find out that they are making and selling fake products. The fake products they make are directly shipped to other places for sale, and they will never be sold locally!Anyway, those people have never eaten the authentic sauce of Baijia Workshop, so they can’t taste it at all.

Bai Chunsheng never expected that there are people here who dare to do high imitation business, and they still use the banner of their workshop, so he was so angry that he took back all the “agency rights” and prepared to open up other channels by himself. It is better to open a store in the state capital to conduct direct sales than to be imitated and ruin your own reputation.

However, taking it back also has the benefits of taking it back. This is the only one, and you can’t buy it anywhere else. If you eat it once, you will definitely come to the shop to buy it when you pass by next time. I brought my slaves over and bought a lot of them back as a New Year’s gift.

Speaking of New Year’s ceremony, what Bai Chunsheng and Wang Kunfeng didn’t expect was that the young prince who was far away in the imperial city even sent someone to bring them some things for the New Year, including all kinds of silk, satin and silk that were new in the imperial city. Cloth, there are also some practical objects such as pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and even money and silver coins made in a box, which are the kind of “commemorative coins” made of one tael of gold or silver with auspicious patterns printed on both sides. Xiao Shizi naturally does not lack these for rewards, and he also got some, but he still remembers to give them a part.

Along with it, there was also a handwritten letter from Xiao Shizi, to the effect that during the New Year’s Eve, there were too many people around, because he was lost once, and this year he was completely guarded by the princess’s people, even the gate of the palace was not allowed, so there was nothing he could do. When I went out to buy some specialties of the imperial city, I could only give them some money and silver, and I bought what I wanted to eat myself. Thanks to his transformation, his handwriting looked like a cat’s paw crawled over it, it was horrible!

Seeing his brother Kun staring at the box of money inexplicably, Bai Chunsheng was worried that he would lose the money, so he quickly took it and stuffed it into the cabinet, just kidding!So much good-looking money is enough for their family’s living expenses for several years, and it is still above the average consumption level of Yujie. Anyway, the palace does not lack such a little money, so don’t waste it!

“By the way, should we also send some things to the prince?” Bai Chunsheng was a little embarrassed. He almost forgot about the kitten. He didn’t expect that people would still remember them and even know how to send them New Year’s gifts. What a shame. The heart-warming and sensible kitten is not at all like the cruel and selfish princess.

“No~ I won’t send it to him even if I give it to him. Don’t you know the princess’s temper?” For that woman, the greatest glory and bargaining chip for the rest of her life is this son, and she will never allow anyone People or things that may be dangerous appear around Shizi, especially those sent by his elder brother… because she knows better than anyone else that Wang Kunfeng hates and hates her and Shizi.

She never cared about the feelings of this half-demon son, but she would never allow such feelings to hurt her precious pure-blood heir!That was her honor for the rest of her life!

“Forget it, I’ll prepare some things and ask Qiancang to help deliver them to Shang Qiulu. Maybe he can bring some things for the crown prince to taste.” It doesn’t matter if it can be delivered or not, as long as he wants it.

What neither Bai Chunsheng nor Wang Kunfeng knew was that this time, the concubine ordered someone to keep the son under close watch not only because she was afraid of losing his son once, but of course, the people in the foreign palace did say the same. , I am worried that there will be too many people in the imperial city during the New Year’s Eve, and it will be over if the little prince is lost again.There were even rumors from the outside world that the Grand Princess did not plan to let the son enter the palace for a banquet, because she was worried that the son would be lost somewhere she could not see.

The eldest son has now turned into an adult. According to the rules of the palace, after the royal family becomes an adult, they must be separated from their female relatives when they participate in the palace banquet. The princess lost her son once, so how could she dare to separate from her son? In desperation, the palace banquet left her son in At home, it seems reasonable to go to the banquet alone. Even the queen empress specially rewarded some shocking precious nourishing medicinal materials and exquisite playthings, saying that it is for the little prince to have fun at home, and then go to the palace to say hello when he is free. Not too late.

“My lord, if the matter fails, Feng’er, he…” Putting on the gold silk soft armor under the gorgeous prince’s costume for Prince Yu, the princess tried her best to suppress the excitement and fear in her heart.

What is exciting is that if things come to pass tonight, she will be the queen of this dynasty!

If the matter fails, the house will be ransacked and the family will be wiped out, just overnight!

His Majesty is seriously ill, and the crown prince is yet to be established. This is their best chance!Neither Prince Yu nor she wanted to wait any longer. If Prince Yu hadn’t been born half a day later, and with the favor of the imperial concubine, had taken up the rightful title of the eldest son of the emperor, the crown prince would have been indisputable!

“Ah Zhen, after tonight, you will be the queen of this dynasty! Our Feng’er will be His Royal Highness the crown prince! Are you afraid to accompany me to the banquet?” Prince Yu looked at her fixedly.

He knows that his princess has always been a good wife and mother, and has always been his good wife. She is scheming, cunning, and ambitious, which is why he has always respected her. Perhaps, he will love many younger ones. A beautiful concubine and side concubine, but his main concubine, the queen, will always be only her.Their relationship has long gone beyond lovers and husbands and wives, and is more like a well-matched partner.

“My lord, you know, whether it’s Tongtian Dao or Huangquan Road, my concubine will always go with my lord.” The princess suppressed her inner worries and fears, and firmly held Prince Yu’s hand.
