Food starts with Mapo Tofu

The wedding is in the midst of intense preparations, and Chen Nian is concentrating on all matters related to the wedding. In addition, Chen Nian is already used to the existence of recipes, so he basically doesn't go to see them, only when there are new reminders in the recipes Just take a look.

So he hadn't looked at the recipe before, and it wasn't until this time that he realized that there was a hint in the recipe.

It is about the opening condition of the next dream.

In the past, if you want to enter the next dream space to learn new dishes, you usually have to sell enough points for the previous dish to open it, but this time is different from the past.

If you really want to say it, it is somewhat similar to the first mission I got when I just got the recipe last year.

Chen Nian still remembers that his first task after obtaining the recipe was to [own a restaurant of his own].

And this time the task was just as simple.

[Open a branch that belongs to the host completely, and sell any dish worth more than [-] yuan, you can open the next dream learning space]

"Good guy, keep up with the times, this is it."

"Some time ago, the apprentice just said that he can open a branch that mainly deals in high-end dishes, and then the recipe released a new task."

"It seems that no new tasks have been proposed before, and I don't know what he is waiting for."

In this way, Chen Nian complained a few words.

But I can't rush to open a restaurant. Now I don't have much money to spend. I have bought a car, a house, and traveled.

Some gift money can be recovered when they get married, but Chen Nian estimates that the gift money recovered is just enough for the banquet.

It seems that I still have a long way to go.

After all, to open an ordinary restaurant now, if you don't invest in the appearance, you just spend money to rent it, and the starting capital of 30 to [-] should be enough.

But since I want to open a high-end restaurant, in addition to the location, the decoration of the store must also be very elegant.

The chef himself can bring an apprentice there at that time, and the two of them should be able to handle it in the early stage. After all, high-end restaurants do not focus on cost-effectiveness, and may be more business-oriented, so there will not be so many people coming to eat.

Needless to say, there is no need to turn tables, one table at noon in a store can probably receive a group of customers.

There is also what the recipe says to open another branch that is completely their own.

If the recipe allows you to rent a house, you won't say that it belongs to this kind of thing, so you only need to talk about opening a branch separately.

So when the time comes, the store will still have to buy it.

The price of an ordinary store in a location like Honghong Hotel is even hundreds of thousands more, nearly one million.

It is estimated that if I want to open a high-end branch store, I will have to spend millions of dollars just to buy the storefront.

In addition, the decoration will cost hundreds of thousands to 100 million at least.

"It takes at least 400 million to go back and forth."

"Oh, it's difficult."

Because aging counts, if it is based on this kind of cost, I have to take that kind of special high-end route. If I compare it horizontally with Michelin, I can at least get a three-star level.

At least 50 per capita, and the net profit after excluding all costs must reach at least [-]%.

Only in this way can we guarantee the return of capital in one to two years.

"Work hard, you can always earn money, if you can't, just borrow some from Hongdou first." Chen Nian couldn't help sighing.

Originally, I thought it would be good to open a red restaurant and earn millions a year, but now I think about those rich people who eat hundreds of thousands for a meal, and the little money I earn is enough People eat a few meals.

"Sure enough, we still need to diversify and develop."

Now Chen Nian's idea of ​​opening a branch is getting stronger and stronger, because Chen Nian used to learn home cooking, so he thought that it would be good for Honghong Restaurant to continue to operate like this.

But later, as Chen Nianxue's products became more and more high-end, he didn't want those dishes to be lost in his own hands, so after his apprentice said, he also felt that such an idea was good, and he could also make money after the branch store paid back its capital. to more money.

But at present this is still a conception, how can we wait until we get married to open a restaurant, after all, I am also busy with getting married now, even if I enter the dream space to study, I may not be able to learn what I want, like before. The frequency of learning one dish a month is not applicable at all now.

Therefore, for the next period of time, Chen Nian was busy with the things in the store and at home every day, and occasionally took time to answer Fu Xin's questions about the world.

In addition, the video on Xiaohua's side cannot be disconnected, and a few videos need to be taken every three to five times, so as to ensure that at least two or three videos can be sent out in a week.

It's just that under such a busy schedule, Chen Nian has no way to go outside to pick up new jobs. Even if some old customers come here, they want to invite Chen Nian to have a family dinner, and want to introduce Chen Nian to other people. Chen Nian can only decline saying that he is going to get married soon, and now he is preparing for the wedding, so he may not be able to help.

In this way, time is passing slowly and quickly.

In the blink of an eye, it's already August.

In their previous plan, Chen Nian and Hongdou wanted to get the license in August.

They want to find a better and more auspicious day, but they don't know much about these.

After that, they set their sights on Qixi Festival.

After all, many people now regard Qixi Festival as Valentine's Day. Every year on Qixi Festival, the Civil Affairs Bureau is full, and many people rush to queue before dawn.

Even if this day happens to be Saturday or Sunday, the Civil Affairs Bureau will work an extra day to apply for permits for these young people.

But Chen Nian thought about it and felt that Qixi Festival was not very good. He knew the origin of Qixi Festival and what day it was.

Because in ancient times, Qixi Festival had nothing to do with Valentine's Day. At that time, Qixi Festival was also called Qiqiao Festival, which was a festival for women to pray for blessings.

The main activities on this day include praying for blessings and making wishes, praying for chance encounters, praying for marriage, protecting children's safety and so on.

Only later, with the gradual evolution of the folk myths of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, the love between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl was widely spread, and some businesses now want to carry out more promotional activities, so Qixi Festival has evolved into Chinese Valentine’s Day .

But in fact, the Lantern Festival and Shangsi Festival are the traditional Chinese Valentine's Day.

Because there was a curfew in ancient times, and women were usually not allowed to go out for free activities, but during the Lantern Festival, the curfew is usually lifted, and women can also go out to play together, so this is a good time to make friends. By the way, the lanterns are looking for someone for themselves, and those men and women who are already in love will take advantage of this day to come out and have a good meeting.

In addition, the date of the Shangsi Festival is on March [-]rd, and one of the main activities is the meeting of men and women and the expression of love between men and women.

The specific reason is actually somewhat similar to the Lantern Festival, the main reason is that I can't go out usually, so I can only take advantage of these few times to go out for a date.

"I think we should not put it on Qixi Festival. Although that day happens to be a weekend and the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau will work overtime, I always feel that Qixi Festival is actually a bit bad, because the Cowherd and Weaver Girl are separated by Xinghe, and they can only meet on this day. But on this day, we separated again after meeting, which doesn't sound very auspicious."

"When you put it this way, I also feel that Qixi Festival is not that good, and everyone wants to go to get the certificate on Qixi Festival, so there will probably be a lot of people queuing up to get the certificate, so there is no need for us to join in the fun."

So they discussed it for a while, and looked at the calendar.

They found that there are old almanacs on the current calendar, including online calendars, that is, it is advisable to move, get married, travel, and avoid signing contracts, making friends, separating, starting a business, breaking ground, and so on.

Everything that is suitable for doing and not suitable for doing is clearly written.

After looking at it for several days, they finally decided on the sixth day of July, which is the day before Qixi Festival.

This day is just suitable for marriage, marriage, engagement, contract signing, etc., and the day is easy to remember.

"Okay, then we will go to get the certificate on this day."

"However, we need to prepare some things before getting the certificate. We have to take a few photos of the ID first, and fill in our marriage certificate and files. In addition, it seems that we need a premarital examination before getting the certificate. I heard from my friends that when they went to the Civil Affairs Bureau, they It's for this."

"Then we have to go there ahead of time." Chen Nian nodded and said, "The premarital examination should not take too long, but it may take a few days for the report to come out. It would be bad if we don't make it in time."

"Well, let me do some research. I remember that we seem to have activities here in the past few days. Free premarital examinations are available. You just need to make an appointment in advance."

"I've seen this too. Some time ago, I asked the customers who often came to the store to eat. They said that they had to pay for the premarital examination at that time. It was five hundred for one person, and one thousand for two people. But we It’s time to catch up, and it doesn’t cost money.”

"Yeah, and save some money."

"Who says no?" Chen Nian nodded with emotion.

After that, the two made an appointment for a premarital examination, which was scheduled until next Monday.

However, since blood is drawn during the premarital examination, you cannot eat or drink after ten o'clock the night before and the next morning to avoid affecting the results.

After arriving at the appointed time, they drove to the hospital early in the morning. As they had learned in advance, although the hospital here has a parking lot, it is very small, and the nearby streets are also very narrow, so there is no place to park. You can park your car on the sidewalk, but that's where you get a ticket.

In the end they decided to park the car in a parking lot a kilometer away.

But something unexpected happened, they just stopped the car, and it rained heavily the next day.

At first they thought they had an umbrella, so they didn't pay much attention to it. The two of them walked towards the hospital with a big umbrella.

As a result, I had just walked 100 meters, and the raindrops fell down like someone was splashing down from the sky.

When it rains to such an extent, an umbrella is no longer of much use. Basically, it can only cover the head and the upper body of the upper body.

In addition, Chen Nian was still worried that the red beans would get rained, so he turned more umbrellas to that side.

This caused the old trouser legs to be completely wet and the inside of the shoes to be filled with water.

Even the upper body was half wet.

"What should I do now? If I go there later, if I need slippers, wouldn't I have to step on two wet footprints on the hospital's weighing scale?"

"There's no way, that's the only way. Who made it rain outside? We don't want to."

"Hahaha, it's too funny, Chen Nian, look at your shoes, it seems to be pouring foam." Suddenly Hongdou laughed.

Because I have a physical examination today, the old clothes are more casual.

Wearing short sleeves on the upper body, a pair of shorts underneath, and high-top Vans canvas shoes on the feet.

After the cloth shoes entered the water, bubbles formed from the root of the oblique tongue when stepping on the inside.

It's like a crab spitting bubbles in the water.

So the two walked like this while looking at the old shoes and laughing all the time.

"Hongdou, I suddenly remembered that Miao Miaowu said before that the two of us together are not like falling in love, but like two like-minded children playing together."

Hearing this, Hong Dou smiled and said, "I am different from you, you are naive, but I am not naive at all."

Chen Nian pouted: "Then what do you think my shoes look like?"

"Crab bubble shoes."

"You still say you are not naive!"

"Which mature person would have such a name!"

"Hahaha, I don't care, I'm already an adult anyway."

In this way, the two came to the hospital talking and laughing. Anyway, their clothes were almost wet, and it was useless to tangle.

After entering the hospital, I put the umbrella at the front desk of the hospital and simply registered. After entering, the two went to the bathroom separately to pour out the water in the shoes.

Immediately afterwards, they began to check various items, and while queuing up, they chatted with other couples who were getting married.

"Hongdou, when is your wedding date?"

"September [-]th, how about you?"

"We are number eight, two days away." The girl in the young couple said, "Have you had your blood drawn?"

"It's taken, the needle port on my arm is still there." Hongdou pointed to her arm and said.

"Does it hurt? The thing I've been most afraid of since I was a child is blood drawing. Every time I have blood drawing, I feel like I'm going to be scared to death."

"Fortunately, after all, it's an injection, it's impossible not to hurt at all, but the nurse sister's technique is very good, just like a mosquito bite, if you are afraid, turn your head away, just don't look at it." An Hongdou comforted the girl .

"Well, I don't dare to look at it."

"Then don't look at it, it's okay, anyway, it doesn't cost money, just treat it as a free medical examination." An Hongdou said while taking out a piece of chocolate from her bag, "This is for you, I'll do it later After the examination, eat this to replenish your strength."

The girl thanked her and took the chocolate.

After getting it, take a closer look.

"Chocolate, chili?"
