Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In Zhao Hao¡¯s original time and space, two hundred years later, Shandong cuisine was able to suddenly emerge and take the lead among the eight major cuisines because of similar means.

    At that time, the masters of Shandong cuisine who were making waves in Beijing, Qing Yishui came from the Weihai area of ??Yantai. After drying the sea intestines, they ground them into powder and used it as MSG to enhance the flavor of other dishes. It suddenly compared with other cuisines.

    The extremely fresh powder made by Zhao Hao also has the same effect.  Foodies who have not been spoiled by the various rich seasonings and additives of later generations can really enjoy a hearty bombing of taste buds.

    A total of 12 hot dishes, including eight meat and four vegetarian dishes, were served that day. Each dish was a dish that foodies are used to, but when prepared in this extremely fresh restaurant, the taste was amazing and unforgettable!

    Coupled with the sound of Ma Xianglan's piano, there is nothing better than this fairy-like enjoyment.

    By the end of the compliment, everyone was running out of words, leaving only the word "fresh" that they kept repeating.

    Even vegetarian dishes like stir-fried reedgrass and dried herbs are so delicious that people want to eat them with chopsticks.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????

    "'The taste is the best on the 12th floor of Jiangnan'. I think this is too modest." The diners held their bellies in their hands, recalling the unprecedented delicious experience, and they all spontaneously praised the store.

    "That's right, no restaurant in the whole country can compare to"

    ¡°Only if you can have a delicious meal here will you have no regrets in your life!¡±

    "Then don't come again. Let's come if the seats are free!"

    "No, I want to keep a private room here, and eat until the Chinese New Year first!"

    Speaking of this, the diners all looked at Shopkeeper Fang and said, "Shopkeeper, how much does this table cost?"

    "Today's opening ceremony is for guests. You can just enjoy it. There is no need to settle accounts." Shopkeeper Fang replied with a smile.

    By this time, he was not worried at all and there would be no repeat customers.

    "Ah haha, I made a profit." Although the diners were not short of money, they still felt very happy and asked: "What about tonight?"

    "I'm sorry, sir, we didn't prepare enough ingredients the first day, so we're closed today." Shopkeeper Fang gave a wry smile.  Of course this is the owner's intention. Things like opening ceremony rewards will naturally achieve the effect.  Those tables of food and drinks are all the owner¡¯s hard-earned money

    ¡°What about tomorrow?¡± the diners asked again.

    "It will be open as usual tomorrow. A table in the lobby will cost five taels. In the four private rooms upstairs, a table will cost ten taels." Shopkeeper Fang said loudly.

    The price almost scared Yu Jiachang and Old Man Gao to the point where they fell off the counter.

    They thought it was a joke when they heard from the host that they wanted to reserve a table of five or two.  I didn¡¯t expect it to be true, and the price was the same as in the lobby downstairs!

    The private room upstairs is actually twice as expensive!  The two old men thought to themselves, who would spend a full ten taels of silver to come to Caijia Lane for a banquet?  Isn't it crazy?

    Unexpectedly, the diners said nonchalantly: "The price is quite fair."

    "I'll reserve a private room for a month first!" Someone immediately bought a ticket for 300 taels.

    "I'm sorry, Mr. Sir, our store has a one-day reservation for both the private rooms and the lobby. Long-term packages are not accepted." Shopkeeper Fang looked at the meeting ticket, swallowed secretly, and explained honestly according to the owner's instructions.  : ¡°This is to allow more diners to enjoy our delicious food.¡±

    ¡°Oh, you are so particular¡± The diner put away his ticket in frustration.

    But others took out their money one after another, and in a blink of an eye, ten tables of meals for lunch and evening were all booked.

    The other diners who had not made reservations quit and started shouting around shopkeeper Fang, demanding that he be given two days' grace.

    They also surrounded Zhao Shouzheng, vowing not to give up unless he agreed.

    Fortunately, Old Man Gao was smart and ran upstairs to ask his boss, then came back and murmured to Zhao Shouzheng.

    Zhao Shouzheng announced as his old boss that he could reserve a table three days in advance.

    In the blink of an eye, all the seats for three days were booked, and all were paid in full in advance.

    Now that everyone had at least a table, everyone left with satisfaction.

    ????????? These old gourmets, who have yet to show their talents, asked the waiters to pack the cold dishes while discussing how to share the food with each other so that they could have more meals.

    Zhao Hao didn¡¯t come downstairs until Xuelang and the diners had left.

    Seeing Zhao Hao coming downstairs, Ma Xianglan, who had already put the lyre into the piano bag, stood up and left.

    "Gao Wu, call a car to take Miss Ma back." Zhao Hao ordered Gao Wu.

    ¡°?Don't worry, my coachman is waiting outside.  "Ma Xianglan held the qin in her arms and bowed to Zhao Haofu.

    When he arrived at the door, Fang heard Zhao Hao remind him: "You don't have to come so early tomorrow, just arrive before noon"

    Ma Xianglan nodded slightly, turned around and went out.

    ??~~

    A simple carriage was parked in the alley of Zhao Hao's house.

    Seeing Ma Xianglan coming, the old coachman and the maid hurriedly stood up to greet him.

    The maid took the piano and helped Ma Xianglan get into the carriage. The old coachman urged the big green horse, left Caijia Lane, and headed south slowly.

    On the carriage, the maid pouted and said: "Girl, it's enough to come here once today, right?"

    "You can come later tomorrow." When there are no outsiders, Ma Xianglan is as elegant as an orchid, without any smoke.  "I told you, you don't have to follow me."

    "Of course, wherever the girl goes, so does the servant." The maid was busy showing her loyalty, but she couldn't help but said in despair: "Girl, what did that person do to you?"

    "He didn't do anything, it was my own free will." Ma Xianglan took out the neatly folded letter paper from the sachet, and read it carefully again in the slightly bumpy carriage.

    "A leaf of orchids and a flower of arrows, who would regret being alone at the end of the world? Since it was written on the silver paper, I am not afraid of wind, cold, rain and slant"

    As she read, she became a little crazy again. She held the poem in her arms and murmured: "This poem seems to come out of my heart. Every word and every sentence is telling me something."  The voice of my heart"

    "It's rare to have a close friend in life. Man said that he asked me to play the piano, but even if he goes through fire and water, what's not to do?"

    "So that's it" The maid suddenly realized that it was the boy named Zhao who impressed her girl with his poem.

    But she took a look at Zhao Hao from a distance in the morning and couldn't help but sigh: "It's just that my best friend is a little young."

    "Don't talk nonsense, what a noble person Mr. Zhao is?" Ma Xianglan thought of the poem she heard Xuelang read today, and couldn't help but sigh: "He is not even willing to accept me as a disciple. The so-called confidant is just my wishful thinking  ¡­¡±

    ??~~

    "A sneeze"

    In the elegant room with the word "spring" on the second floor, Zhao Hao suddenly sneezed.

    Watching Ma Xianglan's carriage drive away, he couldn't help cursing himself for being more and more shameless. He actually used a poem written by Ma Xianglan ten years later to impress Ma Xianglan herself.

    Is there anyone here who can¡¯t be beaten?

    ¡°I just don¡¯t know how long this effect will last.

    That¡¯s all, let¡¯s just count one day at a time Let her help for a month, and I think the extremely delicious food will completely open up the situation in Nanjing City.

    When the time comes, if you give her a wonderful poem, then you will not owe her anything.

    Mr. Zhao thought so and tasted the purple bamboo shoots given by Xuelang with peace of mind.

    After tasting it, this tea is indeed best brewed with spring water.

    In order to make it a hit today, Zhao Hao ordered shopkeeper Fang to go all over Jinling and purchase the best ingredients. Even the water used for making tea and soup was brought from the Pearl Spring across the river.

    At this time, shopkeeper Fang knocked on the door and came in. He handed the account book to Zhao Hao with a happy face, and his excited voice changed the tone:

    "My boss, I collected a total of four hundred and twenty taels of cash today, and I got my money back in one day!"

    As he spoke, Fang De's tears kept flowing. He had been feeling unreal for a while. He was always worried that when he suddenly woke up, everything would be in vain and he would go back to the days of selling breakfast on the bridge.

    It wasn¡¯t until just now, when he looked at the cash on the counter, that he was finally convinced that he had finally gotten rid of the nightmare and had a new life!

    Zhao Hao took out the handkerchief and handed it to him, patted Fang De on the shoulder, smiled slightly and said: "Where are you now? Work hard, the good days are still to come!"

    "Yes." Shopkeeper Fang nodded heavily and said, "Fang's life will be sold to his employer!"
