The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 81 New Product Launch

I walked over, stood beside Fang Ling, glanced at the bulletin board, and said, "Linger, what are you looking at?"

"Brother, you are here, I am looking at the notice above."

The content on the bulletin board can be summed up into three points. One is that the building will resume business tonight. Due to insufficient preparation, only guests with VIP cards are entertained; Normal business.

After watching it, I laughed and said, "This Xiao Tian has come up with the trick of setting his own price again."

Fang Ling also smiled: "Yeah, this is almost becoming Xiao Tian's signature, brother, but is the first one wrong?"

"Ling'er, what's wrong?"

"Brother, do you think that the door should be open for business, but now there are restrictions, will it offend a large number of guests who don't have VIP cards?"

Except for the development direction of Shifeng Commercial Bank, I basically don't care about the specific affairs of the commercial bank, and leave them all to Xiao Tian, ​​the shopkeeper of the commercial bank. Tongle Building is now a part of the commercial bank, and Xiao Tian has full control over the specific operation methods Responsible.In the beginning, Xiao Tian was still a little reluctant to let go, and would always report to me big and small matters when I went to Shifeng Commercial Bank. In the past few days, I went less frequently, and instead let him show his subjective initiative.If I don't show up, he can't find me. There are no mobile phones in this era, but things still happen every day. As the big shopkeeper of the firm, Xiao Tian can only take on this responsibility by himself.

Don't use people with suspicion, don't use people who are suspicious.

Of course, I will personally decide on major events.

"Well, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Tonglelou is positioned as the most high-end restaurant in Lin'an City, so its customer base is mainly for noble businessmen with VIP cards, or some officials. People with money are distorted in their hearts. They only choose expensive ones and like to compare themselves. They can’t speculate with the mentality of ordinary people. Xiao Tian’s method is to make the VIP card of Tongle Building a status symbol. I think it is available method."

After being nurtured by me as a businessman in the past few months, Fang Ling has also begun to understand a lot of business.Fang Ling worshiped: "Brother, how come what you say becomes very reasonable?"

"Haha, Linger, let's go in and try the dishes with MSG."

There were several clerks standing at the door, welcoming the guests with smiles and checking the VIP card. Most of the clerks in the Tongle Building knew me. One of the clerks who looked like a foreman hurriedly welcomed us inside and took us upstairs to Room No. [-], Tianzi .Since Xiao Tian joined Shifeng Commercial Firm, Tongle Building has also become the property of Shifeng Commercial Firm. This Tianzi No. [-] room has become my exclusive private room, and it is not open to the public even when I am away.

At this time, all the customers on the first and second floors were full, and soon, all kinds of dishes ordered by customers were put on the table one after another.

"These dishes are the same as before?" The guests shouted when they saw that the dishes on the table were the same as before.

"Hehe, young master, miss, master, madam, you should try it first." The guys quickly smiled and said, "Our Tongle Building will not smash its own signboard."

"Then try it first, please."

"Ah, fresh."

"This vegetable dish is so fresh, Xiao Er, did you add a lot of broth? How much copper will it cost?"

"Guest officer, look, this is a real stir-fry, there are traces of broth."

"Fresh, not bad."

"Fresh, delicious, how do you do it? Did it all soak in the broth?"

"This VIP card is worth it."

There was praise everywhere in the restaurant.

Xiao Tian walked to the middle of the restaurant with a smile, and said loudly: "Dear guests, you have eaten the new dishes in this restaurant just now, you must feel the taste is different, yes, it is what you call umami. This is nothing It is made of broth. You see, the small bag of powder in my hand is called Shifeng MSG. The umami taste you eat in the dishes is because of the addition of this condiment. Remember, this is called MSG. Shifeng monosodium glutamate. From today, our catering industry has added another condiment, which is sweet, bitter, spicy and spicy. With this umami taste, all dishes will be able to add umami condiments in the future. Thank you for sharing the joy with me Lou's long-term support, all the VIPs present tonight will receive a small bag of monosodium glutamate with the VIP card, and you can put it in your own dishes when you go back, and you will be able to enjoy this umami taste. You can consult our store for specific usage Dude. In addition, Xiao is here to announce that after three days, if you like, you can go to Shifeng Commercial Bank or this restaurant to buy this kind of monosodium glutamate."

"How much copper money does this bag cost?" A guest asked.

"A bag of monosodium glutamate is worth copper coins, of course not this kind of small bag."

After Xiao Tian finished speaking, many voices below began to whisper.

"consistent?"

"Is it expensive?"

"It's okay, it's so delicious, it's not expensive."

Fang Ling said: "Brother, what do you think, is it always expensive?"

"It's expensive, but in the eyes of the rich, it's worth it."

During the Song Dynasty, silver was rare and mostly traded with copper coins.The unit of currency value of copper coins is Guanhe Wen, which is always equivalent to one thousand Wen, and consistent copper coins are equivalent to one tael of silver. According to some calculation methods, it is always equivalent to today's three hundred yuan. It is naturally expensive to buy a bag of crude monosodium glutamate. Surprisingly.

According to the records in the Water Margin, when Yang Zhi was selling knives, Niu Er said, I bought a kitchen knife for 30 yuan, and I could cut meat and tofu. That is to say, in the Song Dynasty, an ordinary kitchen knife cost three Ten Wen, equivalent to nine yuan, just imagine, buying a bag of monosodium glutamate with the usual money that can buy more than [-] kitchen knives, in the eyes of modern people, it will be very expensive.

However, it is the same in any era, the rare is the most expensive, this is the same rule.

"Shopkeeper Xiao, can you give me the right to buy and sell Fujian Road?" A voice with a heavy Hokkien accent sounded.

Xiao Tian knew the speaker. He was Lin Zhixiong, the leader of Fujian's business community. He had a wide range of industries and a large ocean-going fleet.Xiao Tian didn't dare to be too negligent, and clasped his fists and said, "Shopkeeper Lin, this matter needs to be discussed later. It will take about a month for our firm's monosodium glutamate workshop to be completed, and it is estimated that it will be ready for mass production in mid-May." , when the time comes, I will be the first to come to shopkeeper Lin to discuss cooperation matters."

Lin Zhixiong smiled: "Brother Xiao, you mean what you say."

"Brother Lin, you watched my younger brother grow up, how could my younger brother lie to my elder brother?"

"Shopkeeper Xiao, who do you want in Guangdong Road?" Another person said.

"Young Master Xiao, can Jiangxi Road give us Kangyong Commercial Bank?"

"Of course Jiangxi Road should give us Shengquan Commercial Bank. You Kang Yong don't have the strength."

"Nonsense, you are all-rounder and have no strength."

. . . . . .

"Brother, it's very lively."

"Yeah, it seems that these people have sensed a business opportunity, and Xiao Tian's new product launch conference is considered a success."

Xiao Tian saw that the scene was a bit chaotic, and hurriedly said: "Everyone, distinguished guests, stop for a while, stop for a while, calm down, and listen to what Xiao said. Today, everyone just taste the dishes of this building to the fullest, and don't discuss other things. Regarding the right to buy and sell in various places , Xiao will ask the big owner of Shifeng Commercial Bank for instructions, and hold a meeting in Shifeng Commercial Bank in late April. At that time, our commercial bank will issue invitation letters to all shopkeepers. Xiaomou promises that this matter will be carried out in an open, fair and just manner , everyone rest assured."

Lin Zhixiong laughed and said: "Brother Xiao, you are really young and promising. These three gentlemen's words are indeed the kingly way of business, and they are incisive."

"Brother Lin, you are too much for the prize, this is not what my younger brother said."

"Could it be the words of the old shopkeeper?"

"Brother, it's not what my father said, it's what my boss said."

"Really, the owner of Shifeng Trading Company?"

I sat in the royal study, reminiscing about the dishes with MSG.Almost half a year later, I finally tasted the umami taste of MSG that I have been used to for a long time.

"Do not eat too much monosodium glutamate, just like table salt, there are too many additives in it, you know?"

"But dishes without MSG are not tasty at all."

"Why, you're disobedient and dare to talk back to Bengong?" Le Lingshan said angrily.

"How dare you, my wife." I quickly apologized.

"That's good." Le Lingshan turned his anger into joy.

I'm not very expressive. I remember once watching a movie about a foreign emperor who didn't love Jiangshan and beautiful people. I said to Le Lingshan that as long as I was with her, even if I was asked to be the emperor, I wouldn't. willing.

I have lived an imperial life without monosodium glutamate for half a year. Alas, as long as Le Lingshan can come back to me, even if I don’t eat monosodium glutamate for the rest of my life, it doesn’t matter if I don’t become an emperor.

Lingshan, where are you, are you okay?
