Spicy Restaurant Opens
“Who do you think can stay with dishes like this?”
Qiu Wuji looked at Liu Zaixi and asked bluntly.
Liu Zai Xi was even more nervous at this moment than when he first traveled through time. He wanted to speak, but there seemed to be no reason to refute.
As for why the situation has become like this, it can be traced back to two incense sticks ago.
Today is the first day that Liu Zaixi opened a spicy food restaurant in Gudai, and a lot of people quickly gathered in front of the store.
Just as Liu Zai Xi was giving a passionate introduction, a carriage slowly drove over.
Everyone around was listening to Liu Zaixi's introduction, and no one paid attention to the people in the carriage.
"Take a walk and take a look, a spicy restaurant has officially opened."
The gongs and drums were loud, and that word attracted him.
Qiu Wuji stared at the passionate girl through the gap and couldn't help but become interested.
The girl smiled as brightly as a flower and kept waving her arms to attract customers.
"This restaurant is special. We offer an exclusive spicy dish every day to ensure that all our customers are satisfied. For our new restaurant opening, we'll give you a gift when you eat, and the drinks will be free!"
The man listened quietly to Liu Zaixi's introduction, with the corners of his lips raised, finding it interesting.
"Today's special spicy dish is boiled pork slices! Welcome everyone to come in and try it."
After hearing the novel names of the dishes, people started to come into the store one after another, which triggered a series of reactions and more and more people came into the store.
The man in the carriage was no exception.
There were so many people entering the store, but Liu Zai Xi unexpectedly noticed the two customers wearing bamboo hats who entered the store one after another.
I always feel that these two people are different from the people around them. What's the difference? Maybe it's their temperament. They always have a temperament that deliberately alienates people.
Liu Zaixi walked forward with a smile and asked the man behind him, "Is there a private room? My master doesn't like to be with too many people."
When he heard the word "master", Liu Zaixi's eyes lit up. What a wealthy family!
"Yes, of course. This way, please."
He took the two of them to the private room and said, "Sir, is this okay?"
"Um."
Liu Zai Xi pouted, looking so cold, but her voice sounded very sexy. But it didn't matter. As long as they could bring money, they would be welcome guests.
The two men didn't look easy to deal with, so Liu Zai Xi decided to entertain them personally.
"Sir, what would you like to eat? This is our menu."
For the first time, Liu Zai Xi felt that he was so flattering. There was no other way, he had to please the walking "money".
After the first "hmm", Liu Zai Xi heard the person in front of him say a complete sentence.
"What are the boiled pork slices you just mentioned?"
The man's voice was cold, like the first snow that had not melted yet, or the crumbling autumn leaves, which was very similar to his own temperament.
But my face is almost frozen from smiling. Why are you asking these questions if you are not going to order any food?
To maintain basic courtesy, I answered seriously, "Shuizhu Roupian is a dish with tender slices of meat and complicated steps. We use the best pork tenderloin, marinate the slices, stir-fry them with a special base, add water and boil them, then top them with chili peppers, minced garlic, and shallots, and stir-fry them in hot oil. As for why it's exclusive today, it's to highlight the value of this dish. It's a bit of a gimmick."
In fact, this is not the case. It is because the chefs we hired do not know how to cook at all. It is very hard for them to teach one dish a day. Although it is not as authentic as what we cook ourselves, it can also reflect the characteristics of the dish.
The man nodded. "This dish will do."
"ah?"
"Don't you understand?"
"oh."
Liu Zaixi maintained his courtesy and turned away.
So I thought they were a wealthy family, but they were so stingy that they only ordered one dish and asked a lot of questions. Liu Zai Xi was a little disappointed.
In the box, "Your Majesty, if you are interested, please just go back. There is no need to come to this kind of place."
"No need, it's just interesting." Qiu Wuji said.
Liu Zai Xi came to the kitchen, where Xiao Zhu and several waiters were busy serving the dishes.
"Miss, who is that person? He seems so mysterious."
"I don't know. Anyway, I came here to eat, but I only ordered one dish."
Xiao Zhu scratched his head: "He doesn't look like he has no money."
Liu Zaixi crossed his arms and said, "Maybe he just came here to join in the fun. I don't even know if he can handle spicy food."
The dishes were ready soon, and Liu Zai Xi planned to serve them himself, as the guests at that table did not look difficult to deal with.
So things became what they are now.
Liu Zaixi was worried: "Is it not delicious?"
"You did this?"
Liu Zaixi answered truthfully: "No, he's a newly hired cook."
"Is this the dish you wanted?"
"Um."
"So this dish was just made by a chef who was brought in to make up the numbers."
"Do you think you can become famous in the capital with just a dish that you put so little effort into?"
Liu Zai Xi was stunned. She only thought about opening the business as soon as possible to make money and gain a foothold in this world, but she completely forgot that some things really cannot be done perfectly in a short period of time.
The excessive pursuit of speed has caused this dish to lose its original soul.
Liu Zaixi thought for a moment and admitted his mistake in a good manner, "I'm sorry, I didn't give you a good experience. Do you have time? Can I remake this dish myself?"
Qiu Wuji put on his hat and said, "No, I don't have time."
Then he walked out with the man behind him.
Liu Zai Xi stood alone in the box, lost in thought.
As Qiu Wuji walked out, the man following him said, "Your Majesty, we shouldn't waste time in a place like this."
"Han Yi, when do I need you to ask about my decision?"
After these words were spoken, Han Yi didn't dare to say another word.
He got on the carriage and left.
Liu Zaixi stopped soliciting customers after the two left. Xiao Zhu was puzzled: "Miss, why don't we continue to solicit customers?"
"Xiao Zhu, what do you think is the difference between what those chefs cook and what I cook?"
Xiao Zhu didn't think much about it: "Of course the one made by the young lady is delicious."
"So, if a dish doesn't taste good, no matter how much I praise it, it's useless if it doesn't taste good."
"Starting tomorrow, the store will be closed and will only open once every seven days."
Xiao Zhu probably understood what Liu Zai Xi meant and immediately went to inform others.
Liu Zai Xi rolled up her sleeves, looking ready to work hard, and silently made up her mind: One day, she would make that man look at her with new eyes, and she, Liu Zai Xi, was immortal.
But why was a spicy food restaurant opened in ancient times?
This can only be blamed on Liu Zai Xi being too miserable. She was actually killed by the spicy food, and what a coincidence she traveled through time and became the least favored lady in the Liu family.
Naturally, Liu Zai Xi would not compromise with reality, let alone yield to others. Perhaps this spirit moved God. When Liu Zai Xi was digging wild vegetables in the yard, he found a wooden box full of silver bills. Knowing that his mother who died early had left such a legacy, he resolutely severed his relationship with the Liu family and went to Beijing with his loyal maid to open a spicy restaurant.
Although it suffered a disastrous failure just after opening.
The next morning, a piece of paper was posted on the store that had just opened the day before: Closed for renovations, open once every seven days.
Passersby began to talk: "You said you just opened yesterday, and there was such a big commotion, why are you closing today?"
"Tsk, it's all just superficial. I went there yesterday and it tasted just so-so. It's just a novelty dish."
Liu Zai Xi stood in the crowd listening, but he was not angry.
After all, what he said was true. Liu Zai Xi really wanted to see Qiu Wuji again and thank him. If it weren't for his enlightenment, his store might have gone bankrupt soon in this capital city where every inch of land is valuable.
Liu Zai Xi got up very early today and opened his eyes before Xiao Zhu woke up. After all, as a foodie, he would not allow anyone to say in his restaurant that the dishes he cooks are just average.
The reason for getting up early is just to buy the best ingredients and peppers to make the best base. Liu Zaixi doesn't believe that he can spend seven days to hone a dish and still not be able to retain customers.
These chefs were carefully selected by her. They are all experienced chefs and learn quickly.
When he arrived at the market, Liu Zai Xi made his purchases quickly, but he also ensured the quality.
All the vendors who met Liu Zaixi began to doubt their lives.
You are obviously just a little girl, why don’t you stay in the house instead of coming out to bargain? The key is that you can’t even win the bargaining, sob.
After working for an hour, the purchased items were almost complete. Liu Zai Xi asked the guy who was helping with the errands to go back first and he would be back soon.
"Xiao Jia, Xiao Yi, you two should go back first."
"Okay, boss."
Xiaojia and Xiaoyi are a pair of siblings, picked up by Liu Zaixi on the way to the capital.
At that time, their village was suffering from famine and the two siblings were almost starving to death. It was Liu Zaixi who gave them food.
Originally, they just felt sorry for them and wanted to give them some money, but who would have thought that the brother and sister would find out that Liu Zai Xi was going to open a store and was short of staff, so they insisted on helping, even without asking for money, just providing food and accommodation.
When Liu Zai Xi heard about this good thing, he immediately agreed. However, after all, it would not be in vain, so he still had to pay the monthly salary.
Right in front of where they were buying vegetables, there was a hawking place surrounded by a group of people. Liu Zai Xi was curious, so he pulled Xiao Zhu and squeezed forward.
Thanks to her petite figure, Liu Zaixi squeezed to the front and saw clearly what was being sold.
people.
As a person in the 21st century, Liu Zaixi completely subverts cognition. Individuals are locked in cages and forced to sell their goods. To put it nicely, they are human beings, but to put it bluntly, they are worse than animals.
Those who bought these people were all wealthy families, who bought them to be maids, doormen, or guards.
These people sold out quickly, and soon only the most inconspicuous man in the corner was left.
The man was very thin and didn't have much flesh on his body. He didn't seem to be able to do any heavy work, so no one wanted to buy him.
Liu Zai Xi was about to leave when she suddenly met the man's eyes and was stunned.
The despair in those eyes made Liu Zai Xi shiver uncontrollably.
Liu Zai Xi didn't want to get into trouble, so he pulled Xiao Zhu away.
Halfway through the walk, I stopped again.
"Xiao Zhu, what will happen to those who can't be sold?"
Xiao Zhu said: "Let him be killed quietly."
Liu Zaixi couldn't describe the feeling when he saw that look, it wasn't just despair, but also...
what else.
Liu Zai Xi lowered his eyes, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
And the desire to be saved.
After his sudden realization, Liu Zai Xi quickly turned around and squeezed into the crowd again, without even paying attention to Xiao Zhu.
The man still had not been sold and was being beaten, but strangely, he did not resist or hide, as if he had completely lost the will to live.
Liu Zaixi ran up to the stage and said, "No more fighting!"
For a moment, no one moved.
"Where are you from, girl? Women should stay at home and do their needlework. What are you doing here?"
Liu Zaixi snorted, took out the banknote, threw it on the ground, and said loudly: "I want that person!"
