One is Boss Li and the other is Boss Fang, both of them are people Qian Ruoyu needs to investigate.
Boss Li threatened his business in the capital, while Boss Fang threatened the capital.
Qian Ruoyu had not thought that she would have to be so responsible to find the names of these two people. If she wanted to find the names of these two people, there was probably only one place, and that was the Dahonglou.
As the largest restaurant in Beijing, Dahonglou is visited by almost all visitors, whether they are from far and wide or the local tycoons.
They must have a lot of information.
Perhaps only the manager of the Dahonglou could know the identities of these two people, so Qian Ruoyu decided to go to the Dahonglou to find out.
Qian Ruoyu brought Jin Lianhua to the Dahonglou. Thinking that Jin Lianhua had been helping her along the way, although she had not yet been paid, Qian Ruoyu decided to treat her to a good meal and also treat the head shopkeeper to a meal.
The head shopkeeper was stunned. He couldn't believe that Qian Ruoyu would take the initiative to treat him to a meal.
He said with a surprised look on his face.
"This... this is probably inappropriate, right? Moreover, it is my turn on duty now. If the big bosses behind the scenes knew about this, I would be embarrassed..."
But Qian Ruoyu just smiled.
"Oh, big boss, you are joking!"
"You are the head shopkeeper of the entire Dahonglou. Even if the big bosses behind you knew about it, would they still fire you... Would they still stop you from doing your job?"
"You are the only person in the capital who is doing well. If you don't take the position, who else is qualified? I think you should come in quickly and stop being so modest!"
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, the chief shopkeeper naturally nodded immediately. After all, there was no way he could continue to refuse at this time.
"Then I will have no choice but to refuse!"
Then several waiters walked into the superior private room and cleaned all the tables, chairs, benches, etc. for everyone, making them look clean.
Then a few waiters placed a bamboo slip in front of Qian Ruoyu, which was the menu of Dahonglou.
Qian Ruoyu only took a quick look and could see that there were so many dishes on it. The first dishes alone included hundred-flavor soup, duck soup, and three-crisp soup.
The main dishes include stewed lamb, steamed duck and goose, lychee kidney, scallion rabbit, and even various braised dishes. It looks so dazzling that it is worthy of being the best and largest restaurant in Beijing.
Qian Ruoyu gently asked the golden lotus beside her: "Here is the menu, Lotus, just order a few dishes at random. Come and have whatever you want. Don't worry about my wallet."
There were no prices on the menu, and Jin Lianhua thought they were just very cheap restaurant prices, so she ordered dishes one by one.
Qian Ruoyu naturally didn't need to worry about what the shopkeeper in front of her needed to eat. After all, the shopkeeper was going to talk to Qian Ruoyu about something later, so there was naturally no need for her to ask too much.
In just a blink of an eye, Jin Lianhua had ordered more than a dozen dishes, including eight main courses.
When seeing this scene, the waiter next to him was a little surprised.
Even the chief shopkeeper said in disbelief.
"This... Princess, in the past, even if there were dignitaries coming to entertain guests, they would at most order three or four main dishes... How could they finish the meal at that rate?"
Qian Ruoyu glanced at the golden lotus next to her.
Jin Lianhua patted her chest and said it with a guarantee.
"Please rest assured. Although I have food and drink in the palace on weekdays, I can still eat a little. We martial artists have different appetites than you. Don't worry, I will eat all the food you can't eat."
Although he did not believe what Jin Lianhua said, it was Qian Ruoyu who paid the bill after all, and they were only responsible for serving the dishes, so the shopkeeper had no way of saying anything more.
After the waiters left, the first dish was served in just half an incense stick of time.
Qian Ruoyu didn't know what Jin Lianhua ordered, but the first dish happened to be a hundred-flavor soup.
Just by looking at the surface, Qian Ruoyu could see that the hundred-flavor soup already contained shrimp, crab, vegetables, etc. It was indeed worthy of being called a hundred-flavor soup. Just by taking a glance, he could see four or five ingredients.
Moreover, the soup on top was still steaming hot and didn't look sticky at all. It looked delicious no matter how you looked at it.
This time, the people who brought in the dishes were not the waiters, but a few well-dressed maids.
These maids were not very old. After bringing in the food, they did not leave immediately. Instead, they picked up the small bowls beside them and filled a small bowl for each of the three people and placed it in front of them. They also placed the spoons and then walked aside.
Qian Ruoyu said.
"The head shopkeeper doesn't need to serve so specially. These maids can do whatever they want. There is no need to stay here. We can serve ourselves."
The chief shopkeeper smiled.
"Princess, you may not know that these maids are responsible for serving the main dishes. Therefore, as long as it is a main dish in the private room, these maids will come to help."
"And you don't need to worry too much. These maids are all deaf maids. They are specially recruited from various villages in our village. Not only can they receive generous wages from us, but we also provide special training so that they can better serve these guests."
After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu was even more surprised. She didn't expect that in this era there would be such considerate service.
These maids were originally disabled due to deafness, but they never expected that this would be a blessing in disguise and they would be able to serve in a high-class place like the Dahonglou. Obviously, their wages were much higher than before.
The chief shopkeeper is also a smart man. After all, those who come here are all dignitaries, and some things are not inconvenient to listen in. In this case, they are the best choice.
Therefore, Qian Ruoyu no longer needed to worry about anything, but instead nodded slightly.
After a few more dishes were served, the maids continued to provide attentive service, using public bowls and chopsticks to help everyone share the dishes.
Before Qian Ruoyu started talking, Jin Lianhua had already started eating with relish.
Although she was a young woman, Jin Lianhua did not care about etiquette at all when eating. Instead, she just picked up whatever was in front of her and ate it.
But Qian Ruoyu knew very well that the reason why Jin Lianhua did this was to conserve her physical strength. Even when she asked Jin Lianhua to go out to investigate something today, she came back at a speed of one piece, precisely because Jin Lianhua was consuming her physical strength quickly.
So even if Qian Ruoyu ate a lot of golden lotus, she would not blame her, and would even think it was a good thing.
