Rebirth: The Fourth Lady Wants to Lie Down

After half a month of careful preparation and unremitting efforts by Fuchang and Yinzhen, their restaurant finally ushered in the big day of opening. On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and the air was filled with a festive atmosphere. Big red lanterns were hung outside the restaurant, and people came and went in an endless stream.

On the opening day, Fuchang and Yinzhen reserved two private rooms, one for Kangxi and the other for the people from Ulanala Mansion. Not long after, Emperor Kangxi brought his princes to Yinzhen's restaurant. In order to avoid attracting too much attention and sensation, Kangxi chose to sit in the private room with everyone before the official opening.

When Fuchang and Yinzhen saw Emperor Kangxi, they immediately stepped forward to pay their respects. Kangxi looked around at the simple and elegant decoration of the restaurant, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. His eyes fell on a special round table, which was different from others and aroused his curiosity.

"Fuchang, what is this round table used for?" Kangxi asked.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Fuchang curiously, wanting to know the secret of this round table. Fuchang smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment, you will understand naturally."

Seeing this, Kangxi did not ask any more questions, but just smiled and nodded. At this time, Xiao Shisi could no longer hold back, and he urged anxiously: "Fuchang, serve the food quickly, I am starving."

The foodie Lao Shi also agreed: "Yes, yes, I heard that your dishes are delicious, I must try them today."

Upon hearing this, Fuchang nodded and agreed, and asked everyone to wait for a moment. He turned around and left to prepare the dishes.

As the last dish was served, everyone's eyes were focused on the dishes in front of them. The dishes were brightly colored, but they were all raw, which made everyone a little confused. Kangxi spoke first, asking Fuchang why all the dishes were raw, and whether the servants had made a mistake.

Fuchang first explained the question to Kangxi: "Your Majesty, this is one of the characteristics of our restaurant - the automatic rotating table. You only need to press it lightly, and it will rotate automatically, allowing you to easily pick up every dish on the table."

Everyone was amazed when they heard this. Emperor Kangxi was even more pleased and praised: "Fuchang, you are really thoughtful. This design not only makes it convenient for guests to dine, but also increases the fun of dining."

Yinzhen also smiled proudly and said, "Thank you, Father Huang, for the compliment. We hope that through these innovative designs, our guests can feel our dedication and enthusiasm while enjoying the food."

Fuchang then explained the matter of the lettuce: "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Because it is winter and the weather is cold, Yinzhen and I specially prepared a pot to cook these dishes. But this pot is different from the ones we usually see."

Yin? Hearing this, he immediately became interested and asked curiously: "Oh? What's the difference?"

Fuchang smiled and proudly introduced: "The pot we made is called 'Yuanyang Pot'. Its feature is that it can cook two flavors of dishes at the same time - one is light and the other is spicy. In this way, people who like different flavors can choose according to their preferences."

Everyone showed interest when they heard this. Kangxi was even more curious and urged, "In that case, let's get started."

So, Fuchang and Yinzhen began to get busy, demonstrating to everyone how to use the mandarin duck pot. Fuchang first taught Li Dequan how to prepare the seasoning and asked him to prepare a bowl of special dipping sauce for Kangxi. Seeing this, the others also imitated and prepared their own dipping sauce according to Fuchang's instructions.

Then, Fuchang began to scald the food for Kangxi. He was skilled in the technique, and each piece of meat was cooked just right. Then he dipped it in the sauce and handed it to Kangxi. Kangxi took the bowl, dipped it in the sauce, put it in his mouth and tasted it. His eyes lit up immediately and he praised it: "Not bad, not bad, this taste is really unique."

When the two foodies, the Tenth and Fourteenth, heard Kangxi's praise, they immediately started to eat the food on the table. They ate with gusto and exclaimed that it was delicious. Seeing this, the others couldn't help laughing and followed their example to enjoy the delicious hot pot.

After the meal, everyone sat at the table to digest the food. After this meal, Kangxi had a very good impression of the restaurant opened by Fuchang and Yinzhen. He said with emotion: "You two are really thoughtful. I am very satisfied with this restaurant." Before leaving, he once again urged Fuchang to run the restaurant well and carry forward the restaurant.

Fuchang and Yinzhen were filled with gratitude and respect when they heard this. They knew that Kangxi's praise was not only a recognition of their efforts, but also encouragement and support for their future careers.

……

When the last guest left with satisfaction, the bustling restaurant gradually returned to its peaceful state. Fuchang sat in the account office, busy calculating the turnover for the whole morning. When the last number was settled, he could not believe his eyes - in just one morning, the turnover was as high as 10,000 taels of silver!

He rubbed his eyes and confirmed again that the numbers had not disappeared. Indeed, the numbers were like the warm sun in winter, bright and real. Fuchang was filled with an indescribable excitement. At this moment, he deeply realized the foresight of his third brother Fucun.

Fuchang was filled with gratitude when he recalled Fucun's suggestion. Fucun once said to him, "It's cold in winter, and everyone wants a hot meal. The chili you brought back from the sea is especially popular in winter. Why don't you combine these two points and open a restaurant that specializes in providing hot food in winter?"

Although Fuchang was a little hesitant at first, he decided to give it a try after Fucun's persuasion. Now it seems that this decision is undoubtedly correct. People can not only taste fresh vegetables in the cold winter, but also enjoy the hot and delicious soup base. This unique experience makes the restaurant business prosperous and everyone praises it.

Fuchang stood up and walked out of the accounting office, ready to tell Yinzhen the good news. He searched the entire restaurant and finally found Yinzhen busy in the backyard.

"Ninth Prince!" Fuchang shouted excitedly, "Guess how much we earned this morning?"

Yinzhen looked up and saw Fuchang's happy face. He couldn't help but wonder, "Is business particularly good?"

Fuchang nodded, with a proud smile on his face: "Yes, you guessed it right! In just one morning, our turnover reached 10,000 taels of silver!"

Upon hearing this, Yinzhen showed a look of surprise on his face: "Really? This is incredible!" He never expected that he would make so much money in his first business venture.

The two smiled at each other, their hearts full of longing and expectation for the future. They knew that all this success was inseparable from Fucun's wisdom and their hard work. They decided to continue to work together to run the restaurant better and create more business miracles.

From that day on, Fuchang and Yin'er's restaurant business became more and more prosperous. Throughout the winter, people flocked to this unique restaurant to enjoy the warmth and delicious food.
