Chapter 1 Tavern Big Clients

In the ninth year of Wude, the golden autumn and October, the majestic Chang'an city is not as lively as in previous years.

Most of the pedestrians on the street are walking in a hurry, even if they say hello, they are soft-spoken and don't want to say more.

Just three months ago, Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty, killed his brother and killed his younger brother at Xuanwu Gate, imprisoned his biological father, and even ascended the throne a month ago.

For the common people living in Chang'an City, the Xuanjia Army running through the streets from time to time is like killing gods coming to the world, and they can hear the news of a certain powerful family being imprisoned every few minutes.

Precisely because it is at the foot of the emperor, who doesn't have a few relatives who eat public meals?

Therefore, during this period, almost half of Chang'an City was like a ghost realm, from the public officials to the refugees, they were all worried, for fear that one day the vicious Xuanjia Army would break into the door.

Zhang Nuo lay on the counter in a bored state, sighing while watching the street scene outside the door.

Three months ago, he was still a small restaurant owner and otaku who lived in the 21st century and was accustomed to playing games on his mobile phone using WIFI.

But after taking a nap, he woke up after nine years of martial arts, and he became Zhang Nuo, the young owner of a small restaurant near Chang'an Chengdong City.

Zhang Nuo didn't feel uncomfortable being a restaurant owner. He took care of the small restaurant left to him after his parents died in his previous life, at least he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking.

But what year is it now?Datang!

According to the order of scholars, peasants, businessmen, and businessmen, businessmen are cheap jobs, and they belong to the existence of any small official who can come and bully them all at once.

At this moment, even if you are the richest man in the country, in the eyes of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, you are a fat sheep, and maybe one day you will be slaughtered when you are fat and strong.

Therefore, Zhang Nuo has only two things on his mind at the moment, earning money and being an official!

It's a pity, I don't know if the posture was wrong when I crossed over. When I first came here, I ran into the Xuanwu Gate. Jieli reached the Weishui alliance, and the city of Chang'an might have to be besieged.

The business of Chang'an City is naturally not prosperous, and the golden finger, which he regards as a trump card, has been buffered by less than [-]%, and it is not known when it will be in place.

In desperation, Zhang Nuo could only run this small shop honestly, and he couldn't starve himself to death.

Just seeing that the sun has reached three poles now, and according to the living habits of the Tang people, it is already lunchtime, but there is no half-person figure coming to the door, Zhang Nuo pondered that it would be another day for nothing today.

Just as he was about to go to the back kitchen to get himself something to eat to deal with, a middle-aged man Shi Shiran wearing a black brocade coat and a unicorn jade pendant walked in.

Zhang Nuo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stood up straight and greeted,

"Guest officer, how many people are there for dinner? What are the taboos?"

The middle-aged man seemed to have something on his mind, and he was rather frowning. He nodded as if he heard it, looked around, chose a seat in the back and sat down.

Zhang Nuo hurried forward and wiped the already clean tabletop with the linen on the counter, and then said,

"The guest officer seems to have something on his mind. Since it is the first time to come to the door, why don't you try a few new dishes from our family, and pair it with a small pot of wine. Maybe after eating and drinking, your worries will be relieved!"

When the middle-aged man saw that Zhang Nuo was speaking quite well, he finally smiled and said,

"Then try the shopkeeper's craftsmanship, as long as the craftsmanship is good, your money will be indispensable!"

Zhang Nuo nodded with a smile, and hurried into the kitchen to do some work.

From the point of view of dress and bearing, this man doesn't look like he has no money. As long as he arranges it well, he will have a big client in the future.

Not to mention making money, if a big client brings a friend or something in the future, will the business be better?

If one of my friends is an official, and they are familiar with each other from time to time, can they ask for a letter of recommendation or something? Wouldn't they just sneak into the officialdom?

Zhang Nuo, who has Xiao Jiujiu hidden in his heart, can be said to have shown his true skills in the back kitchen. In less than 10 minutes, four dishes and one soup were served.

These days, not to mention the lack of materials, the cooking skills are more than stewing or roasting. Therefore, Zhang Nuo uses the broth as the base to season the carefully fried dishes. Not to mention the taste, the appearance and aroma alone are extraordinary.

The middle-aged man looked at the fragrant dishes in front of him even though they were served in ordinary porcelain bowls. He had no appetite at first, but his tongue was full of saliva, which was completely aroused by greed.

Without further ado, he picked up his chopsticks and tried them one by one. The more he ate, the brighter his eyes became. Then he drank the little wine that Zhang Nuo had poured for him with a smile. He was completely happy.

"The shopkeeper, you have nothing to say about your craftsmanship. I won't say that I have eaten all the restaurants and restaurants in Chang'an City, but I have basically eaten seven, seven, eight, eight, and this is the first time I have tasted such deliciousness. It seems that you are indispensable today. !"

Zhang Nuo laughed when he heard the words, joking. If he could open a restaurant in his previous life and not fall down all the year round, who didn't have a strong ability on hand?

However, seeing the guest just bury his head in eating after he finished speaking, Zhang Nuo was not inconvenient to disturb him.

I happened to be hungry too, so I turned around and planned to go to the kitchen to get myself something to eat.

But before he could walk into the back kitchen, the guest opened his mouth to say hello,

"The shopkeeper, I think you haven't had lunch yet. You might as well join me at a table. It's boring for me to eat and drink alone. We can also relieve our boredom while we eat and chat!"

Zhang Nuo was not at all embarrassed. He had not eaten with guests once or twice in his previous life. He took a pair of clean chopsticks and sat opposite the guest. He took a few mouthfuls of dishes before he asked,

"What's the name of the guest officer?"

The middle-aged guest was about to pour the wine, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but immediately picked up the wine jug and poured it on his own, but replied fluently,

"The shopkeeper can just call us Lao Li. I'm also a businessman. In recent months, my business has not been doing well, and I was really annoyed and went out for a walk. I didn't expect that I would find a delicious food that I hadn't encountered before. I will try it more in the future. taste!"

Zhang Nuo nodded with a smile, poured himself a glass of wine, raised the glass and gestured to Lao Li, then poured it in one gulp, and replied,

"Hey, the past few months have been chaotic, and business has not been easy to do, but seeing the Tang emperor abdicate and the saint ascending the throne, you still have peace of mind, Lao Li, it seems that the good days are not far away!"

Old Li's eyes flashed brightly, and then he said with a smile,

"It seems that the shopkeeper is optimistic about the current saint, and I hope so too. The world has been in chaos for so many years, and it is time to enjoy peace!"

Zhang Nuo nodded as a matter of course, even if he didn't learn the history very well in his previous life, he still knew about the rule of Zhenguan. How could it be a joke that even the prosperous Tang style that later generations praised after a thousand years?

Seeing that Zhang Nuo didn't say much, Old Li also knew that it was the first time he met, and talking about the royal family was a bit familiar, so he changed his tone and talked about the customs and customs of Chang'an City and his interesting stories of traveling south and north.

Although Zhang Nuo is less than [-] years old at the moment, but what kind of jokes he has never seen in his previous life, what kind of unpopular knowledge he has never heard of, and has contacts with Lao Li, but the chat is in full swing.

The two exchanged cups and drank while eating, and the meal ended after more than half an hour.

Unfinished, Old Li took out two pieces of money from his purse and put it on the table.

Zhang Nuo naturally nodded and agreed, but he sighed in his heart that he was a wealthy family, and this was just a month or two of ordinary people's expenses.

Lao Li went out on the front foot, and got on a carriage without an emblem on the back foot.

Old Li, who was sitting on the seat, didn't have the slightest smile in the tavern at this moment. He said in a deep voice with a face like water and eyes full of electricity,

"Back to the palace!"

The driver driving in front, even through the curtain, bowed earnestly and replied,

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Lao Li, or in other words, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, was sitting in the rickety carriage, thinking about Zhang Nuo's evaluation of himself today, and after reliving today's food and wine, he suddenly felt that perhaps this humble tavern, Really need to go a few times!

Chapter 2 The promise of a thousand gold

Li Shimin sat staggeringly in the carriage on his way back to the palace, because the curtains of the carriage were closed, so the whole carriage looked extraordinarily dark.

At this moment, Li Shimin was reminiscing about the delicious taste just now, and sometimes thinking about the small wine he was drinking today.

Suddenly, Li Shimin's originally closed eyes suddenly opened, and he said in a deep voice,

"Xingben, you look up the shopkeeper of the restaurant today, I have already left now, but I still think about the food, I am worried about cheating!"

The driver sitting outside whispered to the person next to him, but did not answer directly. Instead, he lifted the curtain of the car and entered the carriage. He approached Li Shimin and said in a low voice,

"Your Majesty, the little acquaintance of the shopkeeper can be regarded as a child of our old Qin Wangfu. The house was actually given to you back then by your Majesty!"

When he heard that it was a child from the Old Qin Palace, Li Shimin's originally frowning brows relaxed unconsciously, and asked with a smile,

"Which kid is this? Could it be that he was born in the Huotou Army, and this skill is enough to be a royal chef in the palace!"

Li Shimin is so confident that the mansion of the Prince of Qin back then was a stronghold built by him that was impervious to water and impregnable. If he could be rewarded with the role of the mansion, he must be a man of merit, so it was absolutely impossible to harm him.

The coachman named Xingben is also an old man who has been with Li Shimin for many years, and he is outside the palace again, so it is rare in private to relax a little.

"Your Majesty, do you remember the old Zhang who drove the car for you back then? He was the one who secretly gave you a drink and finally got his leg broken by the Emperor Taishang!"

Li Shimin suddenly realized, remembering that when Xingben was not by his side, wasn't Lao Zhang his driver.

At that time, he was still young. Although he was the king of Qin, and his subordinates were like clouds, he conquered the great Tang Dynasty, but in Li Yuan's eyes he was still a child, and he was very strict with him.

The brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji had already hindered him a lot at that time, which made him often annoyed.

Lao Zhang is usually a personal guard and drives a car in his spare time. Naturally, he is a rare self-confessed person around Li Shimin. Seeing that he is bored, he secretly finds a few bottles of spirits, and then comes with a few side dishes.

But I never thought that Li Yuan didn't know what was going on, and on a whim, he wanted to come to Qin Wang's mansion for a walk, and just happened to catch up with such an event.

The fire at the city gate brought disaster to Chiyu. At that time, Li Shimin didn't dare to stab Li Yuan, and watched Lao Zhang get thrown out of the house with a broken leg.

He also remembered it now, and it seemed that he had explained it to someone to secretly send a house deed and some money, and he didn't even dare to visit, so as not to offend Li Yuan.

It never occurred to him that he was already the son of the emperor, and the son of a deceased man and an old friend was so busy in the kitchen, which made him somewhat ashamed.

Li Shimin asks himself that he never owes any meritorious servants, but at this moment he thinks of Lao Zhang, who was driving the car back then. He had been by his side since he was a child, and after that, when he went into battle, he protected him thoroughly and took good care of him in private. The caring people of life.

Not to mention that he had suffered for him, but he gave some money and ignored it. The thought of it made his face hot, and he hurriedly asked about the current situation of Xingben Lao Zhang.

Xingben was also sighed, sighed and replied,

"Old Zhang was kicked out of the mansion, so he went home to recover from his injuries. Later, we old brothers secretly went to see it a few times and wanted to help, but we were rejected by Lao Zhang!"

"You gave Lao Zhang that house, and Lao Zhang never lived in it. Last year, Lao Zhang and his wife were seriously ill at the same time, and that kid in his family went bankrupt to treat his father and mother. In the end, the old house was sold, but he couldn't get it back. In the end, we moved to the present house.”

"It is estimated that he is also poor. Forced to make a living, the old Zhang family opened a small restaurant. It is more than a living, and he can't starve to death."

Xingben shut up after speaking, but Li Shimin didn't speak for a long time.

He could think of Lao Zhang as a person. Lao Zhang was the old guard who followed him when Taiyuan raised the army. He usually talks funny and goes into battle, but he dares to fight and kill.

At that time, he also wanted to give Lao Zhang an official promotion, but Lao Zhang refused on the grounds that he was not good at martial arts, and he was only a personal guard in the end.

With this thought, more and more memories came flooding back.

No wonder he saw a word on the wall in the store before that looked familiar. Isn't that because he wrote it when he was still the chief executive, when his pen power was young, and the name was written by Li Er.

Thinking back to when I carelessly wrote the words "Old Zhang is great" in my study, I would give it to Lao Zhang if I was begging for nothing, and promised that high-ranking officials and rich salary would be indispensable in the future. Now Li Shimin can't wait to dig a hole right now. go in.

But the emperor is the emperor, Li Shimin himself did make a mistake, but when he turned his head and thought about it, he realized that it was wrong, it was not his fault alone.

Old Zhang was by his side earlier than those in the court now, such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, and others, and he has been in close contact with these high-ranking officials and generals since then.

Don't these people want to help?At that time, they were good brothers who fought together in life and death. Could it be that they looked at people differently when they made a fortune?

As soon as Li Shimin's question was raised, Xingben replied with a wry smile,

"Your Majesty, it's not that you don't know that Lao Zhang is a good-looking man. He has a limped leg and thinks he can't serve you anymore. How can he be willing to cling to those accomplished adults."

"You know, Mr. Guang Changsun, Mr. Fang, General Cheng and others have been blocked by Lao Zhang many times, and they don't accept any gifts. They just live their own lives. Even if we are seriously ill, we He doesn't accept money from people, let alone those grown-ups."

"In addition, the rumors have become more and more serious in the past few years. Those adults don't want an ordinary person like Lao Zhang to get into trouble, so they completely cut off the contact on the surface, but they still greeted each other in private."

"Otherwise, do you think that Zhang Nuo is the old Zhang family boy, how did he manage to keep the house in Kaihuafang? Although the house is not big, it is next to Suzaku Avenue, and the price is not cheap."

Li Shimin closed his eyes again, although there was not much expression on his face, but Xingben, who was familiar with Li Shimin, knew that the Holy One was not happy.

After a long time, Li Shimin asked leisurely,

"I remember that I hugged that kid when he was born, drank Lao Zhang a drink, and said that in the future, that kid can call Guanyin's maidservant sister-in-law in private. I even chose the name."

"Zhang Nuo, a promise of a thousand pieces of gold! My promise of a thousand pieces of gold, it seems that Lao Zhang can't see it anymore, it's all my fault!"

Xingben didn't dare to answer now, just bowed and stood quietly aside, even though the carriage was still shaking, his figure didn't waver a bit.

Not long after, the carriage was about to reach Yanxi Gate, the side gate of the palace, and it was about to enter the palace, so Li Shimin said,

"You go to say hello in private later, don't let anyone disturb Zhang Nuo's business, otherwise, I will put him in a dilemma!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xingben's answer, Li Shimin straightened his waist and got out of the carriage. At this time, the previous shame was no longer on his face, only a solemn look was left.
