Return To 1998

The temperature during the day was fine today. At noon, the sun came out, but as evening came, the sun disappeared into the clouds early, and the temperature became lower and lower.

After dark, Xu Tongdao and others obviously felt that it was colder tonight than last night.

Affected by the weather, the business in their store was also very weak tonight. As of 7:00 p.m., only two groups of diners entered the store for consumption.

Moreover, the two groups of guests only ordered barbecue and cold dishes. One of the tables later ordered two bowls of mutton soup. That's all, no one ordered liquor, and only a few bottles of beer were sold.

The two waiters in the store, Cao Min and Fang Fang, according to Xu Tongdao's instructions, recommended to them the Quanyang Banquet, which was officially launched tonight, and also said Quanyang Banquet when the two tables of guests entered the restaurant to order food. You can order one or two dishes a la carte.

However, after listening to the introduction, the guests from these two tables expressed no interest. They only wanted cold dishes and barbecues.

On the first night of Quanyang Banquet, they received such a cold reception. Cao Min and Fang Fang could not help but look at Tongdao Xu in a strange way.

The eyes seemed to say: Boss, you made this thing not easy to sell!

Xu Tonglin, Ge Lianghua, and Xi Dongyang also subconsciously paid attention to Xu Tongdao's face.

Everyone thought that Xu Tongdao would be unhappy.

Is Xu Tongdao happy?

Of course he was not happy. He prepared a whole sheep feast during the day today. It has been open for several hours at night, and no one has ordered a dish from the whole sheep feast. What reason does he have to be happy?

Should he be happy?

But to be angry, that's not it.

As early as when he decided to launch Quanyang Banquet, he knew that it would not be easy to promote Quanyang Banquet.

Not only because the price of each dish at Quanyang Banquet is not cheap.

It is also because this county does not seem to sell whole sheep feasts yet. They belong to the south of the Yangtze River after all, and eating mutton is not as popular as some northern cities.

Opening up a new market is definitely a process.

He is waiting.

The price of the whole sheep feast is destined that ordinary people are not its target customers.

There must be few people who can afford and are willing to eat the whole sheep feast.

He steadied himself, made a cup of tea and sat in front of the oven outside the store? While waiting for customers?

In such a cold day, there is no skewer to need him to bake? It is also very comfortable to bake yourself.

The rooster Ge Lianghua is by his side? Sitting on a small horse, if there is no oven in front of them? It looks a bit like two beggars.

There are very few vehicles and pedestrians on this street tonight. It takes half a day to see a car passing by? Occasionally, one or two pedestrians can be seen passing in front of their store.

And these pedestrians are still in a hurry? Bowing their heads and shrinking their necks, they did not look up at the big banner hanging under the sign of his shop.

It's not just Xu Tongdao's barbecue restaurant that is in bad business.

The whole street was very quiet tonight.

There are obviously several fewer stalls across the road than before, and those stalls that are still set up there are not doing any business tonight.

Bald Zhang is also sitting in front of the oven at this time? His booth has not had a single customer until now.

But he seems to be in a good mood tonight? While smoking, he looked at Tongdao Xu across the road with a smile,

And the barbecue restaurant behind Xu Tongdao.

At this moment, Xu Tongdao's barbecue restaurant did not have a single diner.

This made the bald Zhang feel fair.

I have no customers here, and there are no customers there for you kid? Let you open a shop! I just have a small stall, so it doesn’t cost much? Your kid still has to pay rent, water, electricity, and staff wages. It costs a lot a day, right?

Full! You kid have the ability to make your store full!

The more you think about it?

Very relieved.

Especially watching Xu Tongdao holding a teacup and sitting in front of the oven? He looks like he is doing nothing? The bald head Zhang Zhang's mood is even more beautiful.

From time to time, he glanced at the large banner hanging under the signboard of Tongdao Xu's barbecue restaurant.

When he came to set up the stall this evening? Saw the words on the banner.

Quanyang Banquet... Hmph, it's so cold, there's no one on the street, even if you make your own dishes, no one will come to eat...

The bald Zhang was gloating to himself, which was overheard by Fatty Lu from the stall next to him.

Fatty Lu smiled and looked at Tongdao Xu across the road and the restaurant behind Tongdao Xu that had no diners.

At this time, there was a table of three customers eating at his booth.

This made Lu Fatty feel good.

Originally! He only has a table of guests eating here, which is completely unpleasant.

But seeing that his competitors were worse than him, he felt balanced, not only balanced, but also a little proud.

Fatty Lu was still grilling mutton kebabs. He looked up at Tongdao Xu while grilling. He hadn't seen such a scene once in recent months. It's rare to see it today. Eye.

Can……

The smile on Fatty Lu's face suddenly froze, and his brows furrowed.

Because he saw two men and two women stop at the door of Xu Tongdao's shop at this time.

That's not the point!

The point is that the short fat man among those two men... he knew Lu Fatty.

It turned out to be the big boss of Hungry Wolf Legend - Hou Jinbiao.

The Legend of the Hungry Wolf is the largest and best-selling dance hall on this street, and the name of the Golden Biao, most people may not have heard of it.

But he, Fatty Lu, had heard of it.

very rich! It is said that there is a lot of background.

As for how rich Hou Jinbiao is, he doesn't know. Anyway, in Fatty Lu's eyes, Hou Jinbiao is definitely a big boss.

On this street, he could not think of any more rich boss than Waiting Jinbiao.

But at this time, Hou Jinbiao was standing in front of Tongdao Xu's shop with another man and two women. A young woman was wearing a pair of tight black fitness pants, a pair of Xiantian high heels, and a mink coat on her upper body. , with long wavy hair draped behind her shoulders, like a fairy, Hou Jinbiao did not put her arms around her waist, but she took the initiative to carry the short and fat Hou Jinbiao arm, which looked very intimate.

The other man was not as short as Waiting Jinbiao, nor as fat as Waiting Jinbiao, but he also looked like he was in his forties or fifty years old, and there was also a delicate little goblin on his arm.

Fatty Lu saw that these four people were standing in front of Tongdao Xu's oven at this time. The four of them looked up at the sign on the door one after another... Maybe they also looked at the big characters on the banner.

Following, Waiting Jinbiao and others seemed to ask Xu Tongdao and the boy a few words, and then Xu Tongdao, the boy stood up with a smile, and reached out to invite Waiting Jinbiao and others to enter the store.

Fatty Lu was fascinated, and his eyes were a little straight.

A big boss like Hou Jinbiao has never patronized any restaurant on this street, let alone a street stall on this side of the road.

And Xu Tongdao's kid's barbecue restaurant is not large, only two small stores, what is waiting for Jinbiao today? To go to patronize that kid's broken shop?

No one gave him an answer.

It was the burnt smell from those mutton skewers in his hands that made him come back to his senses...

Suddenly smelling the smell of roasted lamb skewers, he was startled and came back to his senses.
