I have a Yokai cookbook [Gourmet]

As night fell, the rain became heavier and heavier.The dense branches outside the house are like a huge tentacle monster opening its teeth and claws on a rainy night.

The bean-sized rainwater crackled and slapped on the windows, making a bang bang bang bang.

The flickering candles were suddenly extinguished.

Chi Ming frowned, put the miscellaneous notes in his hand on the desk, got up and looked for a fire pocket to light the fire.

Before he could stand up, a black figure sneakily pried open his tightly closed door, and walked towards him gropingly.

"Hey, little beauty, here I come."

Chi Ming immediately recognized that it was the voice of the waiter in the shop.

"Little beauty, where have you been hiding, come out quickly~" There was an irrepressible excitement in the trembling voice.

"Hey, I saw you."

The shop boy's mung bean-like eyes narrowed, emitting a faint green light, and Chi Ming was disgusted by the undisguised swallowing sound in the darkness.

"Xiao Er doesn't sleep at night, what are you doing in my room?" Chi Ming resisted the nausea in his heart, the bone whip in his hand had already turned into a long whip.

"What are you doing? Of course I'm looking for the little beauty to have fun with you." The waiter saw Chi Ming, his eyes flashed greedily, and he licked his lips hungrily, revealing two sharp fangs .

"It turned out to be a mouse spirit. I'm afraid you don't know it. I hate mice the most in my life, especially ugly ones like you."

"Haha, but I like your body, what a delicious snack." Now that his identity has been seen through, the waiter has no intention of hiding it anymore, and he no longer hesitates, rushing to Chi Ming eagerly.

However, in the next second, his body was thrown by the bone whip, and a bloodstain with deep bones appeared in an instant.

"Who the hell are you?" The mouse spirit was startled, not expecting to touch a hard bone.

"Who? Probably the one who took your life." After Chi Ming finished speaking, he threw the whip again.

Shu Jing turned his head and ran away, but he didn't expect a tall man wearing a bamboo hat standing at the door.

Under attack from both sides, he hurried towards the window again.

"Rats are really annoying." He San jumped in from the window, and pressed the mouse spirit under his feet with one paw.

"He'll leave it to you to deal with." Chi Ming glanced at the mouse spirit who had passed out from fright, and he was going to go downstairs to have a look.

The people in this store are not normal, and I don't know if there are any people alive.When he just entered the store, he seemed to have glimpsed other carriages parked not far away.

After dealing with a few mouse spirit accomplices along the way, Chi Ming saw Li Siya and Li Pan'er with their feet bound in the woodshed of the back kitchen.

"Brother Chi, run quickly, this inn is a black shop. That waiter is not human." Li Siya's originally dark eyes lit up the moment she saw Chi Ming.

"Li Siya, what are you talking about? If he leaves, it will really be the end for both of us." Li Pan'er was obviously extremely frightened.The eldest brother Li Xiu was sucked dry human blood by that goblin just to save her.

The appearance of the dying struggle is really terrifying.

She doesn't want to die, she still has a bright future waiting for her, she absolutely can't just die like this.

"Brother Chi, don't worry about me. My foot is injured. You will only become a burden if you take me with you." Li Siya shook her head, holding back the tears in her eyes. He couldn't let Brother Chi see the fear in her heart.

"Those things have been resolved by my people. It's all right, it's safe."

After a night, the rain finally stopped.

Chi Ming asked He San to send the Li Siya sisters back.Turn around and meet in the capital.

Xia Huo also made a request with him at this time.She wanted to accompany Li Siya back to Jiang Ze Mansion, until she saw that she married and had a child, she could really feel relieved.

The carriage walked on the road for another two days before entering the capital city of Tong Jun Mansion in the dark.

Although Chi Ming is not around, Chi Yan is open for business daily.

The fat cook became temporary head chef.

With Chi Ming's guidance, the fat cook is barely qualified for the job.Although the customer flow cannot be like a cloud, there are still a few diners.

Li Qi was about to close the store, when he saw the familiar carriage, he couldn't help shouting excitedly to Li Yusheng inside: "Come back, Mr. Chi is back."

Li Yusheng, who was engrossed in the settlement, froze for a moment, and then ran towards the door excitedly.

He looked around, but he didn't see Chacha, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"Mr. Chi, you are finally back."

"Yes, I'm back. It seems that the three of you have managed the pool banquet well."

The fat cook who heard the wind rushed out with a shovel in his hand like a small whirlwind.

"Master, you are finally back, we all miss you to death."

Chi Ming glanced at the strange handsome little fat man in front of him. It was true that his voice was Fat Hai, but the difference between before and after was too great.

"You should have shaved off your beard a long time ago. Look at how energetic you are now, so that you look in line with your age. I thought you were a middle-aged uncle before." Chi Ming joked.

"Hey, isn't this being complained by customers? They are nagging from time to time, saying that Master, you are very good-looking, and the dishes you cook are delicious. They always complain about my image like before, so I gritted my teeth. The beards are all shaved."

Pang Dahai was a little embarrassed.

His gaze suddenly stopped on the young man behind Chi Ming.

Seeing that several people were looking at Sun Xi, Chi Ming introduced with a smile: "Sun Xi, he will be your companion from now on."

"Sun Xi, this is Li Yusheng. Li Qi, Fat Dahai." Chi Ming introduced them one by one.

Although it was the first time to come to the pool banquet, Sun Xi liked the atmosphere here very much. He felt that these people were easy to get along with, unlike when he was at Sun's house, he had to think about everything and everything.

"Come on, let's all go in."

Chi Ming was the first to walk in.

The fat cook suddenly yelled "Oops", and rushed to the kitchen in a hurry.

"Mr. Chi, didn't Chacha come back?" Li Yusheng held back all the way, and finally asked with a blushing face.

"Oh, he's on his way." Chi Ming looked at Li Yusheng with a smile on his face. This kid probably doesn't like chacha.

He shook his head and tried to communicate with Chacha, but the guy said he didn't want to come out now.He had to give up.

After several people had dinner together, Chi Ming went to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors.

There are several plates of Lido's specialties on the table.

As soon as the two ancestors saw Chi Ming, they immediately jumped off.

"Boy, why have you been to Lido for so long? How about it, did you get the title of God of Cooking?" Chi Xiao had a piece of pastry in his hand. Although there were people offering it every day, he liked the offering from Yunsun even more .

"That's right, kid, tell me quickly, we're so anxious to death." Chi Zhou also looked curious.

"I got it, I got it."

Chi Ming remembered the changes in his body now.

After hesitating for a moment, he still asked: "Two ancestors, my grandson would like to ask if there are any ancestors in our family who were married to demons?"

"Married with a demon?" Chi Xiao was a little puzzled by Chi Ming's question.

"No, how could our Chi family marry someone from the Yaozu?"

Chi Zhou also denied it.

Although both of them had contracted with the cookbook and knew the existence of the Yaozu, it was absolutely impossible to marry a Yaozu woman.

"Okay, then pretend I didn't ask." Chi Ming had some doubts about his life experience.Is he really the child of Mr. and Mrs. Chi?

"You brat, just pretend you didn't ask what you mean. Tell me honestly, what's going on?"

"Yes, are you hiding something from us?"

"When I went to Lido this time, I also learned a secret." Chi Ming paused, and continued: "I accidentally got the secret book of the dark pavilion, and only then did I know that my parents were murdered by Chi Chun. And this time, their father and son wanted to repeat the old trick, trying to get rid of me with the help of the dark pavilion, but unfortunately I saw through it."

"It's unreasonable! That rebellious son of Chi Chun really did such a thing?" Chi Zhou couldn't believe it. He always thought that Chi Chun was ambitious and accomplished, but he didn't expect to do such a frenzied brotherhood. things come.

"What do you want to do, Chi boy?" Chi Xiao recently noticed the change in Chi Ming's expression.Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and those who have passed away will no longer care about the affairs of the living.

"Yes, Chi boy, if you think about what you want to do in your heart, just go ahead and do it, we two immortals won't do anything." If you encounter this situation when you are alive, Chi Zhou must be persuading the younger generation Let go of grievances for the benefit of the family.But now he is already a wandering soul, if Chi Xiaozi hadn't taken them in, their situation would have been miserable.

They can't control the affairs of future generations, and they don't want to.

"To be honest, I will leave for the capital tomorrow when I come back this time. Chi Chun and his son killed my parents. I will definitely settle the debt with them."

"Boy Chi, you can bring us with you this time." Chi Zhou hurriedly said, if he continued to eat the offerings from that little fat man every day, he was afraid that his body, which had gained weight so hard, would lose weight again.

"it is good."

The store in Tongjun Mansion may be temporarily closed.

Although there is a fat cook around, and he still earns some money every day, he feels that it is not worth it, not to mention that he is going to the capital this time, and he is not sure whether he will return in the future, so he can only close the pool banquet for the time being.

On the second day, after receiving the news, Lao Zhangtou and Lao Litou, who rushed over in a hurry, suddenly saw the notice posted on the door of Chi Yan, and burst into tears instantly.

The two of them, who had been excited all night and were about to come to Haihai for a meal today, suddenly fell to the bottom of their mood.

What kind of human suffering is this.

They can no longer eat the delicacies made by the shopkeeper Chi.

Before dawn, Chi Ming quietly left Tongjun Mansion with his people.

This trip is two carriages.

The fat cook was driving the carriage, and Li Yusheng, Li Qi, and Sun Xi were in a carriage.

The coachman drove another carriage.

Chi Ming sat on the soft cushion and sighed comfortably.Sure enough, having money is fun. I think that when I first came to Tongjun's mansion, it was a bumpy journey.

After riding in Xuanshu's carriage, he secretly decided to build a large and spacious carriage as well.

Probably because he walked the official road, Chi Ming walked quite smoothly on this road, even if he encountered a few bandits who didn't have long eyes, they were quickly resolved.

The few people stopped and stopped all the way, and it took more than half a month to reach the capital.

Looking at the extremely familiar streets, Chi Ming had the illusion that he seemed to have passed away.

After going around and around, he still stood here again.

But now, there are already many people standing behind him, and he is no longer alone.

The Yaren bought a house with three entrances and three exits, which is a house near Dongzhou College.

The capital is very expensive, and good shops with a lot of traffic on the streets are usually controlled by some aristocratic families.It is even more difficult for Chi Ming to buy a restaurant in a prosperous area, especially when it is opposite Chi's house.

But there is also a good saying, money can make ghosts turn mills.

Now that he made up his mind to make the life of the Chi family and his son worse than death, he decided to open the restaurant opposite them.

"What, I offered three times the price, did you agree?"

The dental man went for a long time, and didn't come until noon.

"This restaurant is the dowry of the old lady of the Lin Guofu. You must know that the old lady is a very precious person who has no worries about food and clothing. If she says she doesn't sell it, she really doesn't want to sell it. I think You can afford so much money, why not find a shop elsewhere. The left and right sides are not smaller than this one, but the location is a little bit off, two streets away from the back."

"No need, I just like this one." Chi Ming stuffed ten taels of silver into Yaman's hand: "I have a pill that can make white hair black, please pass it to the old lady for me. "

Since there is no shortage of money, there is only another way.It is said that it is a pill, but it is actually made of flour, the difference is that it is soaked in the juice of Polygonum multiflorum.

Although Yaren didn't agree with Chi Ming's approach, and even expressed deep doubts, but for Qian's sake, she was willing to make another trip.

The old lady of the Lin family was about to take a nap, but unexpectedly, the servant girl came to report, and the eloquent teether came again.

"Just let it go, the noise is giving me a headache." Mrs. Lin has been suffering from insomnia recently. She can't sleep at night and wakes up before three o'clock in the morning. I'm afraid I can't stand it.

"Taijun, that tooth said that she would give you something. She said that eating it would make your hair turn white and black." Seeing what the maid said, Mrs. Lin was a little distracted.

She is only in her 50s, but her hair has turned gray early.At her age, how could anyone have gray hair so early.For this reason, she also consulted many doctors in private, but unfortunately none of them were useful.

Nanny Jin is the dowry maid of the old matriarch Lin, so she can see the hesitation of the old matriarch, and said to her: "If you don't let someone come in first, you will know if you are lying or not, just try it."

"You bring people in."

Yaren was also well aware of the rules of this deep house and compound. He walked all the way without looking sideways. When he saw the Taijun sitting at the head, he hurriedly knelt down and raised the porcelain bottle high with both hands.

At this moment, she was a little scared.

Why was she so obsessed with these ten taels of silver just now?

If what that person said was false, wouldn't her old bones suffer accordingly?

Mrs. Lin winked, and Nanny Jin stepped forward to take the porcelain vase.

"If what you said is false, today's [-] boards are indispensable." Mrs. Lin looked at Yaren majestically.

"Yes, yes, yes." Yaren's face was covered with sweat, and he was a little weak.She could only hope that the pill would have a miraculous effect, and she might get some rewards.

"Let Mother Rong try it." Mother Rong is the oldest mother in the mansion, she has served the master for three generations, and her hair is already gray.

When Nanny Rong was helped out, Yaren's heart skipped a beat again.

This mother Rong is already so old, if she eats up people later, then she is really doomed.

After Mother Rong knew the cause and effect, she also thanked the old lady for a few words.At her age, she doesn't really have any scruples.

The pills are small, the size of soybeans, and taste like jelly beans.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Nanny Rong was still the same, without any change.

Old Madam Lin's patience also ran out at this moment.

"Come here, pull this nonsense man out to play thirty big boards."

"Oh, I'm wronged, that man gave the pill to the villain, and it's none of the villain's business." The tooth man was held down by two strong women.

"Don't worry, none of them can escape. A traveling businessman from other places dares to deceive Lao Sun. Get out, and don't let her block my eyes here."

"I am wronged, Taijun, the villain is really wronged, I beg you to let the villain go."

But no one cared what she said.

The tooth man was pressed on the wooden stool, and his pants were ripped off.

Just as she resigned to her fate, the people inside rushed out.

"Stop, stop quickly, the old lady asked someone to come in and talk."

The dental man put his heart down in an instant.

Finally escaped.

"So, they agreed to sell the restaurant to me at the original price, on the condition that I give her three pills?"

Chi Ming sighed a little after hearing Yaren finished talking about what happened in Lin Guofu. He didn't expect that this method would really work.

It seems that the medicinal effect of soaking is slower, and it is not as good as brewing tea directly.

It was just three flour beans, and Chi Ming readily gave five.

That's right as an advertisement.

He plans to sell this flour and beans in the restaurant later, which can be regarded as an advertisement in advance.

Mrs. Lin is a high-status person, so she might have a certain butterfly effect through her hands.

"These 100 taels are a commission for you. I hope you don't dislike it." This man contributed a lot to the restaurant being able to negotiate, and the man in front of him helped find his house.

"Haha, Boss Chi, you are being polite. This commission is only a little bit more. Besides, thanks to you, I got a lot of rewards when I went to Lin Guofu this time." Yaren's face was full of joy, not as pale as before.

It's really this moment, that moment, the world is unpredictable.

After going to the government office, passing the deed and walking the Ming Road, Chi Ming began to carefully look around the restaurant.

The overall structure has been around for some years, but fortunately, the building materials are well used and the design is reasonable. He only needs to customize the tables and chairs, and then order the bowls, and then he can open the business.

Chi Chun's restaurant is called Chi Xiangge, so he still named it Chi Yan.

As before, the name of the store on the plaque was written by Chi Ming himself.

After the Chi family's matter is resolved, he probably will go to the demon capital. After all, these thousand fairies' praise is not so good in the human world.

After buying the restaurant, Chi Ming was like a spinning top, and he didn't see anyone all day long. He either went to the tile kiln factory or went to the blacksmith's shop to stare.By the way, I also visited various suppliers in the capital, and found out about farm products and seafood.

After all, if you want to open a restaurant, good ingredients are the first thing.

Relying on his keen sense of smell and taste, he successively finalized a batch of cooperative suppliers.

The fat cook and Sun Xi were forced by Chi Ming to get up early every day in the kitchen to discredit their knife skills.

Li Qi searched around for information and collected the names of some of the most famous dishes in the capital.

Li Yusheng followed Chi Ming most of the time, and Chi Ming wanted to distribute the procurement of ingredients to him in the future.

As for the cashier, he planned to hire another old gentleman.

If he has been hiding behind the counter, it will be difficult for him to make progress. He wants to exercise his communication and coping skills.

Li Yusheng himself knew that Mr. Chi did this for his own good.So these days he is very serious about learning the skills of communicating with people.He has always thought that Mr. Chi's cooking is very good, and his knowledge is also very good, but he didn't expect to be so handy in negotiating prices.

He was embarrassed to speak at first, but looking at it like this every day, he actually felt a little eager to try.

He will be the breadwinner in the future, so he has to stand up.

I don't know what kind of person Chacha likes, but he must be an upright man.

Thinking of this, he secretly decided that in the future, he must do the things that Mr. Chi explained, and get it done.

After seven busy days, the pool banquet also opened amidst the lively celebrations of the lion dance team.

Chi Chun and his son had been lying on the bed for almost a month, and they were finally able to walk on the ground. When they reached the entrance of Chixiang Pavilion, they saw Chi Ming standing on the steps that everyone was watching.

"He, why is he here? Isn't the opposite side the territory of Lin Guofu?" Chi Chun almost suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes. Isn't that idiot already dead?

How can this be?

Is it a ghost?

Chi Jian was also puzzled.

The people in the dark pavilion clearly said that they had already killed that idiot, but who is this person in front of them?

Both father and son's eyes fell on the somewhat dazzling plaque.

The word Chi Yan is like hot pepper water, making their eyes hurt.

It's him, it's that trash!

"Father, that trash didn't die!! We were all deceived by the people in the dark pavilion!" Chi Jian gritted his teeth and kicked a stone on the ground, who would have thought that the stone that flew out would hit the door and bounce back, hitting him directly. In the place where his calf was still aching.

It's really unlucky for people to drink water and stuff their teeth.

"Go ahead, let's discuss this matter from a long-term perspective." Chi Chun didn't dare to scold Chi Ming in full view, so he could only help Chi Jian to walk to Chixiang Pavilion.

The idiot deliberately opened the restaurant opposite him, probably on purpose.

Did he really think that he was lucky enough to get the title of God of Cooking, so that he could really compete with him?

How childish!

"Boy Chi, I didn't expect you to come to the capital. You are really not loyal enough. Why have you come to the association for so long and didn't come to see me, old man?" Old man Qin asked his subordinates to plant two plants of one meter in front of everyone. What a tall red coral was carried in.

If someone hadn't told him that the newly opened restaurant was called Chi Yan, and the owner was also called Chi Ming, he really wouldn't have known that the other party had come to the capital.

"Haha, I've been too busy these days, and I really can't get away from visiting your old man's house. Mr. Qin, please sit inside."

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay."

When the old man Qin thought of the old man Gong who was far away in Lido, his heart began to bubbling with inexplicable beauty.

This pool banquet was originally held in Tong Jun's mansion, but now it was moved to the capital in the blink of an eye. It seems that his old man will have something to say in the future.

"Boy Chi, it really is you." Li Changqing turned his head and saw a familiar figure, and a smile burst out on his serious and tense face.

His stomach is finally about to usher in real spring.
