Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 59 Expensive?
……

"Your Highness, calm down!"

Ding Dayong, Zhu Liang and the others were all panic-stricken.

Zhu Di scolded again, "Such a big shop, this thief official only opens the door for half a day? You loser, go, call that thief official to me!"

Zhu Liang responded quickly: "Yes, Your Highness!"

Immediately, he ran out in a hurry.

When Zhu Liang went out, Ding Dayong knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"Forgive me, Your Highness. It is the fault of a villain that I didn't ask His Highness for instructions on such a big matter. Guo Zhixian is indeed a good official. He has toiled so many things all day long. It is inevitable to make mistakes in these trivial matters. Your Highness, please don’t punish Guozhi County!”

Zhu Di glanced at Ding Dayong in surprise, and smiled slightly.

"Get up, the thief officer Guo An is much more slick than you. He will definitely give me a plausible explanation for this matter!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Hearing this, Ding Dayong glanced at Zhu Di with some surprise. As the former personal guard of King Yan, he also knew a lot about His Highness.

He only likes brave soldiers, and looks down on those civil servants, even the civil servants in Yanwang Palace.

Now, he actually has a faint love for the young Guo Zhixian?

However, before Ding Dayong was puzzled for a long time, he saw Zhu Liang, who had just run out, came in with two figures.

"Your Majesty sees His Royal Highness King Yan!"

Running all the way here from the county office, Guo An was panting and sweating profusely. After taking a few breaths, he saluted Zhu Di helplessly.

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

After Guo An got up, Zhu Di sneered, "You thief officer is so weak, you only walked a few steps, and you are so tired!"

Guo An was not annoyed, and he didn't dare to be annoyed. He poured himself a cup of tea and added some water without haste, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I was hurriedly pulled over by Zhu Baihu before I had eaten. Coupled with the scorching sun outside, Xiaguan's body is really unbearable!"

"Hmph, I haven't eaten yet!"

"Come here and take a look!"

Zhu Di pointed to the crowd of Wuyang Wuyang below, and said: "This king has only stood up there for less than half an hour, and the merchants who want to eat barbecue have already changed twice!

Also, do you know how they talk about this king?

Said that the king is not trustworthy, afraid of losing money, he dare not open the business! "

"What, these merchants are so dark-hearted, dare to talk about His Highness like this?"

Guo An's face became angry, "Your Highness, I was afraid that these merchants would be waiting anxiously, and planned to open the door at Shenshi in the afternoon.

Since they are so hateful, let them wait two more hours and open the door again at Youshi! "

Zhu Di gave Guo An a hard look, "You thief officer, do you not only want to lose my money, but also my reputation?"

Guo An sneered, and quickly cupped his hands in salute, "Forgive me, Your Highness, I have absolutely no intention of doing so. It's just that the best time to eat barbecue is when the evening is cool.

However, if His Highness wants to open the door in advance, he can do so. "

Hearing what Guo An said, Zhu Di showed a satisfied smile, "Open the door at noon!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Guo An responded quickly.

Then, he turned his head and looked at Ding Dayong, "Shopkeeper Ding, His Highness has ordered the door to open at noon. Therefore, I also ask Shopkeeper Ding to put up a sign and inform all the diners that the door will open on time at noon.

In addition, make all the waiters and chefs in the shop get ready! "

Ding Dayong glanced at Zhu Di first, and then bowed his hands to Guo An.

"The villain obeys the order."

Immediately, he went down, preparing to notify the chefs and waiters in the shop.

As for Guo An, Zhu Di and others, they continued to sit in the private room and watch.

In fact, in the teahouses and restaurants around the barbecue shop, this meeting has already been full of merchants.

After Ding Dayong hung up a shop opening signboard, all the merchants outside the shop became restless.

More and more merchants, hearing the news, started to rush over.

By noon, hundreds of merchants had already surrounded the entire barbecue shop.

As soon as noon arrives.

The shop door opened from the inside.

Four burly disabled veterans with fierce faces walked out, startling all the merchants who were about to enter, and stopped in their tracks.

"All diners should not be crowded, please come in orderly!"

Under the astonished gazes of the diners, the faces of these four ferocious and strong men all squeezed out awkward smiles.

"Thank you all!"

The merchants crowded in the front subconsciously bowed their hands and walked in impatiently.

As soon as they entered, all the merchants couldn't help but shine, and at the same time, they made comfortable voices.

In the whole shop, there was a trace of icy breath.

Afterwards, under the guidance of the ferocious old soldiers, the merchants all sat down with peace of mind.

Even if they come alone, they all sit at each other's tables.

"Everyone, there is a menu on the wall, and there is also a menu on the corner of each table. You can order whatever you want!"

Without the waiter shouting, these merchants also saw the menu on the wall, not only with the name, but also with a picture, followed by the price.

All the diners who saw the names and patterns of the dishes were full of enthusiasm, but when they saw the prices behind, the eyeballs of all the merchants popped out.

"A skewer of pig meat costs two pennies, and a skewer of mutton costs four pennies... Could this be a typo?"

"Also, a piece of pig brain costs three hundred cash, and only five copies are supplied every day?"

"Sheep penis and sheep kidneys cost [-] Wen each, and only five servings are provided every day?"

"Boar large intestine, boar blood..."

"Are you setting these prices?"

In a corner on the first floor of the barbecue shop, Zhu Di sat alone at a small table with Guo An, Zhu Liang, and Guo Erniu. Looking at the menu on the wall beside him, Zhu Di couldn't help being surprised.

Guo An asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, isn't it cheaper?"

Zhu Di asked curiously: "You guys are really dark, especially the price of these wines is more than twice as expensive as outside. Aren't you afraid that these people and businessmen won't drink it?"

Guo An chuckled and said, "Your Highness, all the food and beverages in the shop are clearly priced. If they don't drink it, they don't drink it. But, Your Highness, how can these merchants resist drinking when they eat barbecue?"

"These merchants are all extremely cunning, and they are even very picky. They know that the drinks in the shop are the same as outside, but they are more than twice as expensive. How could they ask for drinks?"

Zhu Di didn't believe it.

"Xiaoer, wait for me five catties of Qiulubai first!" Guo An said directly to a waiter at the side of the shop.

"Yes!"

All the waiters in the shop knew Zhu Di and Guo An, so after Zhu Di and Guo An sat down, there was a waiter standing by to wait on them.

Soon, the two big altars, Qiu Lubai, were sent over.
