Shen Jia felt relieved to hear this. At least someone could tell what they bought.

So she smiled and replied, "Yes, I am the owner of Shen's Tofu Shop in Linyuan County. However, our shop, Zhenwei Pavilion, specializes in a new style of tofu. It looks like tofu, but it's not tofu. Interested guests are welcome to come in and take a look."

Of course, there are only a few people like him who know something, and most people don’t know what it is.

But when they heard that it came from the county below, and it smelled unusual, and some people still remembered it, they all became interested.

I found the three bowls of snacks handed to me quite interesting, especially the tofu on top. It looked soft, smooth and elastic. Just by moving it, the tofu on top kept shaking.

The most amazing thing is probably the three kinds of tofu with completely different colors, which are placed in white porcelain bowls, making the colors even more eye-catching.

Take a spoon and scoop it up, and you will see several colors coming together, with a faint milky fragrance emanating from it.

Everyone who got a spoon couldn't help but start tasting it. The smooth tofu was sucked into the mouth at once, and the milky aroma and sweet feeling spread in the mouth instantly, as if it had slipped into the throat before it was carefully tasted.

This was the first time everyone had seen something so new, so they were all attracted to it. After tasting it, they couldn't help but ask:

"I wonder when we can go in and try it, boss? I feel like I haven't tasted it yet."

Seeing the effect, Shen Jia was in a good mood. He extended a hand as an invitation and said happily, "Everyone is welcome to come in and taste it!"

Others also made way for the door to allow guests to go in and buy.

As soon as we walked in, we were immediately attracted by the dazzling array of spicy strips. The strips were placed right where you could pass by. As you smelled the spicy taste, you started to salivate unconsciously.

So I asked the employee guarding the counter, "What are you buying? Is this the smell we smelled outside just now?"

Because they had undergone Fuqiu's rigorous training, they were all quite organized. They smiled slightly and introduced themselves gently:

"This is a new product we've developed at Zhenwei Pavilion. We use our owner's secret seasoning, and we also have a product we've developed using tofu. If you're interested, you can try our sample packs first."

That’s right. During the first few days of the new store opening, Shen Jia planned to imitate the tasting model used by modern supermarkets in their promotions. Before everyone knew what the food was, he would first use the word “tasting” to attract everyone.

How can people buy a product if they don’t know what it is like?

Hearing this, the customer hesitated and took the sample package handed to him. He picked up a bamboo stick and put the spicy strips into his mouth.

The stimulating taste gave him an unprecedented experience. He originally thought that the dogwood he liked to eat was already tasty enough, but now when he encountered this spicy strip, he realized how narrow-minded he was before.

He immediately exclaimed, "This is delicious! It would be even better if I could have a glass right now. This thing is enough as a snack."

Everyone was attracted by his voice, and those who had been standing by to watch immediately started to taste it. Those who liked it regarded it as a treasure, while those who didn't like it asked for water to rinse their mouths on the spot.

I really like this smell, but those who cannot accept this sudden stimulating smell quickly move their steps and walk towards the private room upstairs.

In order to expand the number of his dining tables, Shen Jia converted half of the seats into modern small seats. When sitting down, one cannot see the people in front and behind him, but one can see clearly what is happening on the opposite side. The other more expensive private seats are fully enclosed.

So when people went upstairs and saw seats like this, they couldn't help but ask the person who accompanied them upstairs:

"Why did you change this place like this? Won't the guests sitting in the inner area lose their view of the street?"

"Please forgive me, this is a special arrangement made by our host. They said that they would like to allow guests to sit here for a while. If you feel that it is not private enough, you can sit in our private room."

Seeing that there were seats of all prices and positions, no one said anything. It seemed that ordinary people might come here occasionally to shop, but it would be impossible to do so regularly.

Just by looking at the layout of the second floor, you can tell that the owner is not simple. The view is blocked by flowers and plants. If you don’t pay attention, the atmosphere is better when sitting outside.

Just as they were about to sit down outside, a shrewd voice suddenly came from behind, "Waiter! Didn't you see I'm here? Why don't you come over and serve me?"

The person who came was Lin Tongyu, the youngest daughter of the Hezhou prefect. She had originally wanted to go to the largest restaurant in the city with her friends for dinner today, but she happened to meet her mortal enemy Lin Miaoxu, who ignored her because her father liked her aunt.

She loses her appetite whenever she meets this kind of person, let alone being stimulated by her saying that she can bring her friends to eat something new and fresh that they have never seen before.

Thinking about the technology of Pinxianglou and the fact that today was the first day of its opening, she had to force herself to walk in for the sake of her own face.

Just now, when she saw those spicy strips downstairs, everyone looked at her with a bad look. She even ridiculed herself for not having eaten anything good at home. As for Baba, she rushed to a place where only low-class people would go to save face.

Because she was worried that her face would be offended, she was trying her best to control her anger. Now she was so anxious that she started shouting on the stairs.

Because there are only four people available to serve as waiters, and it is the first day of opening so things are inevitably a bit hectic. Upon hearing the voice from above, Li Chun hurried over to greet them.

"I wonder what kind of seats the ladies would like? We have seating outside on the second floor, as well as private rooms with great privacy."

"Of course we are in a private room. Take us up quickly."

Lin Tongyu was already shocked by the girls standing by the counter downstairs. Now that she saw that the girls were the ones serving her, she couldn't help but ask:

"Why are all the servants in your house girls? Why don't you just stay home and do your best?"

"Because our shop specializes in desserts and snacks, our main customers are young ladies and ladies. To make things more convenient for everyone, our boss selected young ladies to serve us. Besides, working at home can never compare to the monthly salary the boss gives us. Everyone is very happy."

Seeing the other party's neither humble nor arrogant attitude, Lin Tongyu suddenly became interested. If there really was such a store, it would be much more convenient for her to go out in the future, and she would no longer have to listen to her mother's nagging.

"But I see that your guests include men, and if there are only girls, what if someone causes trouble?"

"Don't worry, my lady. We have guards inside the store. If anyone causes trouble, we will definitely stop them immediately. Anyone who comes is a guest, so how can we possibly kick them out? But we figured the men serving drinks and desserts on the second floor would be unhappy, so we said this."

Lin Tongyu wanted to continue asking questions, but Lin Miaoxu, who was following behind and ready to watch the joke, couldn't help but said sarcastically:

"Sister, please don't ask so many questions. We can just try the food and know how it tastes. Are you planning to open another shop like this?"

Because their father was aloof and never allowed his family members to do business, in order to improve the quality of life at home, even Lin Tongyu's mother, the eldest lady, only did some business in private.

Perhaps because of the prefect's reputation, their lives were good for the time being, but compared with wealthy businessmen, there were still many shortcomings.

Therefore, she had high expectations for this rare opportunity to go out. Now that Lin Miaoxu had urged her to come to such an unknown place, she had already felt unhappy.

But for the sake of her own face, she still said to Li Chun: "In that case, take us to the private room and order some food first, and we can talk about the rest later."

As soon as he entered the room, Li Chun took out the menu that had been prepared long ago and said, "Ladies, please take a look at the menu. If there is anything you like, please tell me. I will note it down and tell the kitchen staff."

This is the first time that everyone has seen this new thing. In the past, when they went to a restaurant, the waiter would tell them the names of the dishes, and then they would order according to their interests and the restaurant's specialties. This is the first time they have seen a menu. It not only has words, but also pictures, which can make people's appetites just by looking at it.

There are three main types of tofu as the main ingredients, and the others are side dishes, such as cow's milk, goat's milk, osmanthus honey, gardenia honey, taro balls and various jams. It is like a modern version of ice jelly, except that the main ingredient is replaced by three-color tofu.

In fact, the three really have little to do with tofu. They are all similar products made by Shen Jiaqu using other ingredients.

White jade tofu is made from almonds, black jade tofu is made from angelica dahurica, and emerald tofu is made from turtledove leaves. When mixed with other ingredients, they become desserts with different flavors.

Of course, she did not miss out on something as addictive as milk tea, but due to manpower constraints, she is only making the basic version now. In the future, she will definitely promote modern types of milk tea.

Lin Tongyu was almost dazzled by the dazzling array of things inside. When she flipped to the end, she directly ordered a deluxe version of white jade tofu. It was too difficult to make a decision because she had never seen it before. She decided to order the things recommended by the store first.

In the end, other people's choices were similar to hers. Even Lin Miaoxu, who always wanted to see her make a fool of herself, ordered a bowl of deluxe jade tofu.

After watching everyone finish their orders, Li Chun couldn't help but ask, "What drinks would you ladies like? Can we also provide delicious milk tea?"

Lin Tongyu observed it carefully again and said immediately, "Six cups, please. It's my treat!"
