Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 770

Cheng Yuanwai is Cheng Qing, and Sun Yuanwai is Sun Ping, originally from Xuanzhou on Jiangnan East Road.He said that he heard that Luoyang was prosperous, so he came to visit and see if there were any business opportunities.I lived in Li's Inn for half a month, eating, drinking and playing every day, and I don't know what business to do.

On this day, two Yuanwai came back from playing outside, and they ran into Yuanwai Meng Xun who was next door.

Meng Xun cupped his hands from a distance: "The staff is well. I haven't seen you for a few days. The two staff found a big business outside?"

Cheng Qing said with a smile: "Where is there any big business! I just walked around the pier these two days to see what opportunities there are."

Meng Xun said: "Take a walk, there are always opportunities. By the way, there is a Yutangchun restaurant not far away. I heard that it is under the name of Xuanfusi. It specializes in selling two special delicacies. One is hot pot. In the winter like this now, there is a steaming pot in front of me, and I cut fat lamb slices, put them in the pot, and eat them with sauce, I don’t know how pleasant it is! There is also a grilled meat. Grilling the cooked meat will give it a different flavor. Let’s see if it’s getting late, how about we eat there today? The restaurant is newly opened, and I heard there are discounts!”

Cheng Qing and Sun Ping looked at each other, then nodded and said, "That's fine, it just so happens that we didn't have dinner."

Meng Xun was overjoyed.Lead the way and go to Yutangchun Restaurant.

This restaurant was first opened in Luoyang, and there are no semicolons in other places.It was Wang Xiaolie who saw the winter, and there was no hot pot at this time, so he opened this restaurant.After all, it is a new gadget, and it should be able to make money.

When I arrived at the restaurant, a young servant came up to welcome me.I asked a few people if they wanted to watch singing and dancing, so I took them to the small pavilion on the second floor.

This pavilion is very small, just enough to sit on a table.There is a screen next to it, and you can go to the back to wash your hands and face.

The servant sat down with a smile on his face.Then he asked: "Guest officer, how many plates of mutton slices do you want? How many plates of beef slices? How many plates of roasted beef and mutton?"

Meng Xun said: "To tell you the truth, brother, we are here for the first time, and we are not familiar with everything. How to order food, can you tell me?"

The young man hurriedly said: "This is the easiest place, and the food is fresh. In this pot, divide it into two compartments, cook the mutton on the one hand, and cook the beef on the other. When the beef and mutton are cooked, there is a prepared small dish next to it. You can eat it after dipping it. Put a grate on the charcoal pot over there, and when it is hot, you can grill it. It’s really delicious to mix it with shredded green onion and grill it together!”

Meng Xun said: "How much is a plate of meat?"

The boy said: "Almost everyone can get two plates, one plate is sixty yuan. If you have a big appetite, you can order three plates."

Meng Xun shook his head: "The three of us, isn't that six plates? I want to eat more meat, but I can't."

The boy smiled and said: "You guys have ordered, you can eat half of the plate, and he eats half. The three of you can almost taste the whole."

Meng Xun raised his head abruptly, and said, "That's right. Then some mutton and beef, it's enough for six dishes."

The boy said: "We also have radish, chrysanthemum and other vegetables, do you want to have some too? Eat vegetables to relieve the boredom."

Member Cheng smiled and said, "How can you get tired of eating a few plates of meat? Just serve the meat!"

The boy agreed and left quickly.

Meng Xun shook his head: "Is it boring to eat meat? This boy doesn't understand!"

While talking, the meat was brought up.The boy took a charcoal tray and put charcoal under the hot pot and the grate.Daosheng was offended, bowed and retreated.

Meng Xun studied the hot pot, and discussed with Cheng Yuanwai and Sun Yuanwai how to use it.The grate next to it is simple, just put the meat on it and roast it.

After a while, the water in the hot pot boiled, and Meng Xun took a chopstick and put the mutton into his mouth until it was cooked.He chewed and shook his head: "This meat has no taste at all, how can you eat it? This store is just cheating people!"

After rinsing the meat, Cheng Yuan dipped it into the plate next to it, and said with a smile after eating, "The store said that you should dip the ingredients in the plate before eating, and the taste will naturally be different. Although this way of eating is weird, it has a unique flavor!"

Meng Xun followed Cheng Yuanwai's example, after dipping in the ingredients, the taste was delicious, and he was full of praise.

With the example of hot pot, after a little practice with grate barbecue, it is very proficient in using it.

In winter, the weather in Luoyang is cold, and it is not suitable to eat barbecue outside, but it is just right to eat this small hot pot indoors.It's steaming hot, and a few people are sitting together, talking, drinking and eating meat, wouldn't it be fun?

After eating a few mouthfuls, Meng Xun called the servant and asked for a bottle of wine. They drank and talked.

After eating a plate of meat, Meng Xun wiped his mouth and said to the two staff members, "Watching the two of you go in and out every day, I don't know what fun is there?"

The programmer smiled.Said: "Here in Luoyang, there are quite a lot of fun. But there is one disadvantage. You can't enjoy anything. The singing and dancing girls in the restaurant are good. But if you see a singing girl, you want to do something else , that won’t work.”

Meng Xun laughed when he heard this.He lowered his voice and said, "You two still don't have enough money. As long as you have enough money, you can do whatever you want!"

Cheng Yuanwai glanced at Meng Xun.Said: "Just like that Miss Tu Jiaojiao in Linglong Pavilion, she needs five pennies to sing a song. If she spends enough money, can she still take off her clothes while singing? If she spends enough money, she can still accompany her Can't you fall asleep? Member Meng, how much did you spend on her?"

Meng Xun sighed, shook his head and said, "To tell you the truth, with my family background, Tu Jiaojiao is too expensive. All I have is to listen to her sing a few more songs. If I do anything else, I can only blame myself for being too poor."

Member Cheng smiled and said, "Look! Could it be that someone in Luoyang City really slept in Tu Jiaojiao's bed!"

Meng Xun couldn't help laughing when he heard this.Said: "You underestimate Luoyang City! There are a few outsiders in this city, not to mention Tu Jiaojiao, as long as they are interested in singing, they can easily catch them!"

Cheng Yuanwai curled his lips: "Which members are there? There are still such bold people in Luoyang City?"

Meng Xun sneered after hearing this, and counted with his fingers: "The official Lu is in the silk business, the official Peng is in the gold and silver business, not to mention the official Wu in the cotton business. These high officials are all It’s the family’s gold and silver, and you can spend any amount of money. Once the money arrives, won’t the singer submit obediently?”

Cheng Yuanwai shook his head: "Anyway, we don't have that much money, so we can't even imagine it."

Meng Xun lowered his head and ate a few pieces of meat, and then asked, "Then where do brothers go to play every day?"

Member Cheng said: "It's just eating and drinking. Han Si's gambling house, you can't win a regular amount of money even if you play for a day, so you won't go after a few times."

Meng Xun's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Wainers like to gamble?"
