Chapter 198: Banquet
"If the banquet on the other side also requires us to be busy, we really can't do it. Look at the three people on the other side, they are all workers, the master chefs in the factory, and the food they cook is especially delicious."
Chen Min said in a low voice.
They tasted the food the last time Liu Wentao came to help in the kitchen, and it was indeed better than the food cooked by her brother-in-law.
"How can I be too busy?"
Li Baoqin was a little bit unconvinced.
"You'll find out in the afternoon."
Chen Jiao smiled and didn't explain. Some things are better to experience personally.
Now most of the restaurants in the area know that half of the customers who come to eat in the afternoon have ordered dishes at noon. If they didn’t order dishes at noon, they won’t be able to eat them in the evening.
Mr. Xu subscribes to a monthly subscription and pays for meals and alcohol every month.
No matter how busy the restaurant is, as long as he comes, his dishes must be served and we will never forget to serve him.
Li Baoyu and Li Baoqin looked at each other, somewhat confused about the situation, so they stopped asking questions and found out in the afternoon.
afternoon.
Lijia Village.
The sight of Li Dalin smiling all the way into the village left everyone a little confused.
"Dalin, did you find some money when you went out? Why are you smiling so happily?"
The woman at the entrance of the village teased.
"I'm not so happy when I find money. How many cents can you find now?"
Li Dalin said with a smile.
The families of the two brothers Li Dalin and Li Dashun were the first in the village to improve their lives, because Li Baoguo worked in the region and took his wife to the region. He also found a job for Li Dashun delivering eggs, and the food factory paid him 15 yuan a month.
Now that her daughter and son are married, they take Li Dalin with them to work, and give Li Dalin 7.5 yuan every month.
Since the village raised chickens and needed someone to deliver eggs, this job was assigned to the two brothers. Anyway, as long as there were eggs in the village, they had to deliver them, and they earned full work points every month.
Of course, these are what Li Dashun said to the outside world.
The villagers didn't know the truth. Anyway, the price of each egg was the price charged by the supply and marketing cooperative, not a nickel less.
Now every household in Lijia Village receives dividends, and they all raise pigs, so each household can still save more than one hundred yuan a year.
"You are smiling so happily even though you didn't find any money. Did you find a good husband for your daughter?"
The curious woman asked.
"Baoyu and the others are still young, they need to play for two more years, and we are not planning to find them husbands yet. I am happy because my nephew gave me a bottle of good wine, three yuan a bottle, a good wine that even the captain has never tasted. I will invite the captain to my house for a drink later."
Li Dalin took out the Fenjiu hidden in his arms.
Everyone's eyes widened. What kind of wine costs three yuan? Can't we drink wine that costs 60 cents per pound?
"This nephew of Li Dalin's family is really a spendthrift. He can buy five kilograms of wine at 60 cents a kilogram, and a glass bottle filled with horse urine is worth three dollars."
A woman said with a pout.
"You know nothing. That's face. Rich people value that."
A woman interrupted.
Everyone was discussing that if the family brought back loose liquor at 60 cents per pound during festivals, the men in the family would be very happy, but they would definitely not waste money on liquor that costs three yuan a bottle.
At this time, Captain Li got the news and rushed to Li Dalin's house, and swallowed his saliva as he looked at the Fenjiu on the table.
Now that I've been invited to try some of the great wine I've never tasted, I naturally want to give it a try.
Li Dalin was not stingy. He asked his wife to prepare some snacks and then unscrewed the bottle of wine, giving each of the people who came two taels of wine.
Meanwhile, the regional department store.
Li Baoyu finally understood what Chen Jiao meant at noon.
The awning opposite is already full of people.
There were also many people going down to the venue.
There was not a single vacant seat at the restaurant within a few minutes, and many people brought their own stools and sat waiting at the door of the repair shop.
Chen Fen and Zhang Xiang were in charge of the kitchen, the four of them were responsible for serving the dishes, and Zhang Jing was responsible for collecting money and giving orders.
Zhao Yi was fiddling with the TV. After the first batch of customers had eaten, there were not many customers left.
"Old Song, how did you find out about this place? That's a bit disrespectful of you."
After an old man finished the banquet, he came to an old man who was holding his grandson and complained.
"I just found out about this a few days ago when I came here with my colleagues for a wedding banquet. As soon as I found out, I booked my grandson's full moon banquet here. It's a good deal here, and a table of banquets only costs ten yuan. You can't find such dishes anywhere else, and you don't need to worry about it at home."
The old man said with a smile.
"I think it's okay. It would be more grand if my boy's wedding banquet was held here, with all the delicious dishes."
The old man said with a smile.
Several people who had just attended the full moon banquet came to Zhao Yi to ask how to make reservations.
They all had happy events in their families, and they all lived in the South City, so they were not familiar with Zhao Yi's restaurant in the East City.
After some understanding, we immediately decided.
Liu Wentao packed a portion of dishes as usual, but this time he did not pack all the meat and vegetables. He also saved some ingredients, which were just enough for one table, and left them for Zhao Yi and the others.
"Master Liu, wait a moment."
Zhao Yi came to Liu Wentao.
"What's wrong, Comrade Zhao?"
Liu Wentao had met Zhao Yi several times and knew that Zhao Yi was not a stingy person. He would never blame Zhao Yi for packing up meals. After all, this was also a benefit for kitchen helpers.
"There will be banquets on the eighth and twelfth of next month. There will be twenty tables for both days. One will marry off the daughter, and the other will marry off the daughter-in-law. Both will be set up here. Please arrange the time."
Zhao Yi reminded with a smile.
"OK."
Liu Wentao was also very happy.
Liu Wentao and his two apprentices had just left.
Zhao Yi saw Zhao Xuanxuan and Zhao Peng walking over from the full moon banquet with their bowls of rice.
Zhao Yi rolled his eyes at the two little guys and said nothing.
These two bastards followed a few little kids from the neighborhood, carrying their own bowls, and ran to the banquet to get some food. No matter what kind of banquet it was, they would not chase people away, just like some beggars in the city who would wait at the door when they saw a banquet being held here.
Although the host will not invite them to the table for dinner, he will put a portion of food in their bowls, so that they can also get a few words of congratulations.
Just like at a full moon banquet, if a beggar gets food, he will say: "The host is kind-hearted and blessed, so there must be a god of wealth. The god of wealth in the west is Guan Gong. I hold corals and pearls in my hands. I hope your family will be healthy. Gold, silver and jewelry are indispensable."
Zhang Jing has heard a lot of such words.
From time to time, the food that the two little ones couldn’t finish would be given to beggars who were watching TV at the door.
At this time, Zhang Jing was busy settling accounts and had no time to care about the two of them.
We were busy until the evening, and the customers gradually left.
Zhao Yi brought over the table of dishes left by Liu Wentao. Everyone ate while watching TV. Seeing that the two little guys couldn't eat, Zhang Jing knew without guessing that they must have joined the banquet.
