I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

After a long time, Changsun Wuji weakly broke the peace,

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, let's go to shopkeeper Xiao Zhang to have a chat. Now we can only hope that this ghostly talent can really understand ghosts and gods."

Originally, this was just Changsun Wuji's funny words to break the embarrassment, but when Li Shimin heard the name Xiao Zhang's shopkeeper, he inexplicably gained more confidence and became more energetic.

Li Shimin nodded seriously and replied,

"What the auxiliary machine said is that I can't come up with any good solutions. It's better to ask the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang. I believe that this pillar of the market will not let me down."

Du Ruhui was confused, confused, and at a loss...

At this moment, he even wondered if he hadn't been in court for several years, why he couldn't understand what the two monarchs and ministers were saying.

Listen to the evaluation of the two monarchs and ministers, the talents of ghosts and gods, and the talents of pillars!

It still comes from the market, and even the state treasury is empty, and even the existence of the monarch and his ministers going to the door to ask for advice.

Such a person doesn't even know it?

Are you really out of date?

Or is it that he is not as simple as before?

Why?

Just because he stole five thousand coins from His Majesty's internal funds?

It's not that he, Du Ruhui, used the money for eating, drinking and having fun, he did it for the sake of Datang's military affairs.

Moreover, His Majesty has obviously been in contact with this great sage in the market before, even Changsun Wuji, but he hasn't blackmailed His Majesty's small treasury before.

Could it be that His Majesty did not know the foresight, so he was asked to try to get in touch with the great sage in the market in advance?

At this moment, Du Ruhui's head was full of question marks, and all kinds of thoughts popped up in his heart.

After all, Li Shimin, the monarch and his ministers just spoke too highly of him. If you ask yourself, there are very few people in the court who can get such a comment.

Fortunately, although Changsun Wuji didn't know Du Ruhui's whirling thoughts, as a colleague, he naturally had to take the initiative to explain to Master Du who didn't know.

So Changsun Wuji told Du Ruhui almost the shocking words he heard in Zhang Nuo's tavern today.

Of course, he would definitely not say anything about himself and the next emperor.

As a result, Du Ruhui became even more confused. Unlike Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji, he was the same age as Li Shimin's old Zhang, so they had a good relationship when they were in Taiyuan.

But now even the boys from the old Zhang family are so promising?

For the first time, Du Ruhui felt that he was getting old?

Chapter 19 Re-expansion of the restaurant

As Li Shimin officially ascended the throne, the situation in the entire court stabilized, and Chang'an City gradually regained its vitality.

After all, the royal family is in charge of the royal affairs, and I still have to live my own life.

This is not slow. At first, some people had to come out to earn money to support their families because of the pressure of their families, and finally walked out of the house.

After seeing that these people were fine, the more courageous Chang'an people also slowly began to take to the streets.

The business of Zhang Nuo Restaurant has gradually changed from being crowded with only Lao Li visiting for consumption, to occasionally individual customers coming to eat.

And Zhang Nuo's craftsmanship also began to gradually spread in Chang'an.

After all, compared with the sticky food in traditional restaurants, Zhang Nuo's appearance alone is much better.

No, Lao Li and the others walked forward, and several tables of guests came behind.

This made Zhang Nuo, who didn't prepare much food, a little flustered, and Gouzi even went to the West Market three times a day to get food delivered.

At dusk, after a busy day, Zhang Nuo, who had lost the slightest bit of energy as usual, finally calmed down.

The maid, Zhang Xiaomei, had already arranged for the bath water, and Zhang Nuo rushed in almost impatiently, and had a good bath.

Oh my god, he was very proud of making the stir-fry.

After all, it is hard to say that this is the existence that can be written in history books, at least there will definitely be in unofficial history.

But he forgot that the kitchens of future generations have such two magic tools as range hoods and exhaust fans.

And there is nothing in the kitchen at this meeting.

After the whole day, his eyes were nearly blinded by the smoke, and his body smelled almost like roasted whole lamb.

After Zhang Nuo took a shower, he changed into a fresh robe, lay down on the soft couch in the yard, and began to ponder while eating the snacks and wine brought by Zhang Xiaomei.

In the future, I will definitely be promoted to a higher position. Although money is a very important thing, but seeing that the business is getting better and better, if I continue to mess around in the kitchen every day.

Don't talk about practicing calligraphy, I don't even have time to eat when I get busy.

And as Zhang Nuo's restaurant became more and more famous, when he entered the court, would it be a bit embarrassing for a random official to say that he had eaten the dishes he cooked himself?

Although heroes don't ask where they come from, it's not a particularly dignified thing after all.

Zhang Nuo thought for a while, well, the restaurant has to earn money even if it is open, but it has to change the way to earn money.

At least for the current kitchen and ordinary business, he has to find a few chefs to take over.

Thinking of the important point, Zhang Nuo repeatedly called out to Zhang Xiaomei, asking her to call her brother and mother over.

Erniang and Gouzi were busy in the front, and when the younger sister said that the master was calling, they dropped the work at hand and hurried to the backyard.

Looking at the well-behaved family of three in front of him, Zhang Nuo felt a little helpless.

The ancient class distinctions cannot be changed with a few words from him.

His place is not bad, some big families have more rules than you can imagine, and the corresponding punishments are also very strict.

Zhang Nuo didn't have the determination to break the class barrier, let alone the ability. All he could do was treat his servants kindly, which was the most he could do.

Moreover, he had to slowly adapt to this kind of life.After all, when entering the officialdom in the future, you have to salute when you meet someone who is higher than you, and you have to salute when you meet the emperor. If you have a glass heart, you have to wrong yourself to death.

Stopping the flying thoughts, looking at the family of three, Zhang Nuo said seriously,

"Your family are all from Chang'an, do you know a young man who wants to be a chef?"

"You have also seen the business of our restaurant, and it will definitely be better in the future, but I don't even have the time to practice calligraphy now."

"In the future, I will definitely be promoted to a higher official position. Of course, I can't hang out in the kitchen all the time, so I'm asking you guys to inquire."

"It's best to be the kind who is willing to study hard and can work with me all the time. Don't get the kind that learns three tricks and two moves and then leaves."

Er Niang's eyes lit up when she heard the words, the host's family is going to continue to recruit people, and it's hiring chefs, it seems that the host's family is getting more and more prosperous.

Moreover, according to the wishes of the master, he still has to take an official career in the future, maybe he will be a big man who ascends to the court to pay respects to the prime minister in the future.

Such a good master has to perform well. Gouzi has not yet married, and there is no head of the family. If the master is chosen well, in the future, as long as he works hard, he will be able to make a fortune.

After all, Erniang had eaten for a few more years, and she knew very well in her heart that her family is now like a vine, which can only grow by relying on the tree Zhang Nuo.

And as long as this small sapling grows into a towering tree in the future, then the vine in her house will naturally be able to wind its way up.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly began to recall with her heart, which boy she knew was reliable and willing to work in the kitchen to earn this kind of money.

Although she only came to Zhang Nuo's house for a short day, and she only had a few words to deal with Zhang Nuo, but she can tell that the master's family is not stingy, as long as the visitor can work hard, it is absolutely necessary to support the family. not a problem.

But before she could think of a suitable candidate, the little girl suddenly tugged at her sleeve secretly and said in a low voice,

"Mother, what do you think of Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang brothers?"

Erniang's heart was moved when she heard the words, let alone, those two brothers are really good, so she didn't care about the little sister's unruly thing in front of the master's house just now, and said quickly,

"Lang Jun, there are two brothers in my family's Fangshi, surnamed Liu, who are not very old, and they are also from a good family. They work hard at the dock on weekdays, and help the kitchen to earn some pocket money in their spare time. They are very down-to-earth. It's just an old mother, don't you want to see me?"

Zhang Nuo didn't see anyone right now, so he didn't know what to do, but it was okay to meet and chat.

Moreover, according to what Erniang said just now, she was working hard at the pier, so at least she would not be exhausted by the heavy labor in the kitchen, and her physical condition should pass the test.

You know, working in the kitchen is not enough without a good body. A restaurant is different from a kitchen at home.

The workload is not ordinary. Cutting vegetables, shaking pots, and even serving dishes are all physical labor. Once the business is busy, the amount of exercise will not be enough for those who are not fit enough.

The most important thing is that according to what Er Niang means, it would be even better if the two brothers also help others in the kitchen from time to time.

After all, a chef doesn't just stand in front of the stove and stir-fry vegetables. A good knife skill is definitely the foundation of a good chef.

If you learn from scratch, you will have to practice hard for more than half a year before you can barely use the knife skills for cutting slices and shreds.

If you can save the effort of practicing knife skills, that would be the best.

After thinking about it, Zhang Nuo nodded and let Gouzi call someone. This kind of thing has to be done quickly. He really doesn't want to be as busy as today.

Chapter 20 New Business Gateways

As the current full-time errand runner in Zhang Nuo's house, Gouzi just ran in and out, so he naturally had no opinion. Seeing that there was still some time before Fangshi closed, he hurried out.

But Zhang Nuo, who had already got the answer, had no intention of speaking, and after letting Erniang, mother and daughter leave on their own, they continued to lie on the soft bed and began to think about the future development of the restaurant.

He vaguely had an idea that he wanted to change this restaurant.

It's embarrassing to say, other traversers, those seniors, which one of them came to ancient times is not an existence of poetry and book heirs, meritorious deeds, and great wealth.

He was the only one who didn't get his money through cheating. After coming for such a long time, he was still going around a small restaurant.

It seems a bit embarrassing!

Moreover, he had opened a restaurant for nearly ten years in his previous life, so he even opened a restaurant after timetraveling?

Even if his restaurant is the only income of the whole family at this moment, he is a little bored.

Why not open a restaurant?

Unable to remember, Zhang Nuo simply closed his eyes and sank into the vast memory of his previous life, trying to find some inspiration from the various information he read on the Internet back then.

The investment should not be too large, and it must be profitable and not illegal, and it must be able to do it in the era of relatively scarce material conditions in Datang.

At the same time, he must have style and face, so that he cannot become his black history and stain in the future.

Well, it would be even better if it wasn't too tiring.

Zhang Nuo first sorted out his own requirements, and then he was stunned after sorting out.

Fuck!Is it true that I am so demanding?

However, the method was thought up by people, and maybe he really figured it out.

Anyway, I am idle at the moment, even if I can't find any good outlets, it's good to look at the study materials in my memory to relieve my boredom.

So, Zhang Nuo, who was completely crooked, carefully observed the teaching materials of a certain teacher dressed in gorgeous kimono and serving guests with meals and baths, with a piggy face.

Well, this plate of kimchi is really round, this sushi is really white, um... sizzling... the mouth is watering.

After a while, Zhang Nuo, who still had a bit of reason, finally broke away from his memory. Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly adjusted a certain part that was about to move.

It seems that I have to practice calligraphy quickly and become an official as soon as possible. Then I will eat delicious food and drink spicy food every day, and I will be very happy.

babble?

Delicious and spicy?

Yes, I can get some high alcohol!

Zhang Nuo slapped his thigh fiercely, and the business is done!

Just make wine!This business is good!

The more Zhang Nuo thought about it, the more excited he became. This business was tailor-made for him!

What kind of place is this, the number one city in the world, the city of Chang'an at the foot of the emperor, rich merchants from south to north, high-ranking officials with deep backgrounds, and famous families with deep backgrounds, all kinds of people can be found in this big city.

In this era when material life is relatively scarce but spiritual life is extremely scarce, eating and drinking has become one of the few recreational activities for people.

Since I have already launched the only delicacy of Scorpion Baba here, wouldn't it be appropriate to pair it with the exclusive brewed wine?

In the future, big customers like Lao Li don't have to run around. When Zhang Nuo's fine wine comes out, all the food and drink will be paid for you. Just give the money as soon as possible.

Absolutely delicious food and wine that cannot be tasted anywhere else!

Well, at that time, maybe there will be a number lottery, queuing, etc., learn from the Penguin family's methods, add money and directly jump in the queue, create happiness with salary, and talk about shit if you don't have money.

Thinking back to the happy situation of crowds of people vying to pay money in the future, Zhang Nuo smiled like a little fox who stole a chicken, so happy!

Just do what you want, and it happens that there are several large jars of ordinary wine in stock in the store, so it is best to use them as the first batch of purified raw materials.

It's a pity to say that the wine at this moment generally has an alcohol content of less than ten degrees, which is not much better than the beer of later generations, and it is probably the alcohol content of low-alcohol rice wine.
