Travel to ancient times and make a fortune

It is also a Jixiang Restaurant, so of course there will be some unified management rules. However, Ouyang Yiyun never minded. His shopkeepers managed their stores according to local conditions in addition to the rules set by themselves.

But even so, generally speaking, the shopkeepers are generally very good, not seeking great achievements, but seeking to make no big mistakes.

But this Ma Xu is different. As long as it does not violate the general principles set by his boss, he has made a lot of rules according to the situation in Sichuan and Chongqing. Except for the occasional one or two Ouyang Yiyun put forward his opinions, the others are very good. .

This may be one of the reasons why Jixiang Restaurant’s profits are always among the best in Sichuan and Chongqing!
After the inspection, when the couple was about to leave, Ma Xu looked at Li Xiao with a hesitant expression.

"Does Shopkeeper Ma have something to say?" Li Xiao discovered that Shopkeeper Ma had been looking at him "affectionately" for almost half a day.

"I do have something to ask my wife for," Ma Xu said with a smile.

"Begging me? What's the matter?" Li Xiao was curious.

"Madam, can you please bother to come up with some new dishes suitable for the tastes of Sichuan and Chongqing?" As he said this, he rubbed his hands nervously, for fear that Li Xiao and Ouyang Yiyun might be in danger.

When Li Xiao heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously: "Ma Po Tofu, spicy and sour potato shreds, pickled fish, etc. These should be very suitable for the tastes of Sichuan and Chongqing, right?"

"What Madam is saying is, however, these dishes have been out for many years. Restaurant owners have their own cooks. If you eat this kind of food several times, a good cook can make it eight or nine times. Therefore, These dishes have already been learned in other restaurants such as Sihailou."

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, and then said: "There are many wealthy people in Sichuan and Chongqing, and there are even more people who are willing to spend money on food."

"But if you love to eat, it means you know how to eat. If you know how to eat, you will be more picky and like to try new things. Jixiang Restaurant is not a local restaurant. If you just stick to your laurels, you will be squeezed out of Sichuan and Chongqing by your peers sooner or later."

Ma Xu has been in Sichuan and Chongqing for more than ten years. The dishes that Li Xiao first served have been sold for more than ten years and are no longer the specialties of Jixiang Restaurant.

Only then did Li Xiao realize why the shopkeeper looked at him with such starry eyes. He was thinking of making more signature dishes for him!
"This matter is easy to talk about!" Li Xiao didn't feel any pressure at all and agreed directly, "Let's do it early tomorrow morning. After breakfast, you have the kitchen prepare things in advance, and then let the cook who has nothing to do is learn with you!"

Li Xiao asked the shopkeeper to prepare pen and ink, while he read out a long list of ingredients. After finishing, he yawned and left.

Early on the next morning, Ma Xuke arrived at the restaurant early. After confirming it in person in the kitchen, he calmly waited for the arrival of Li Xiao and his wife.

Li Xiao didn't come too late. After all, he still had the task of patrolling the store after everything was done.

In one morning, Li Xiao directed the restaurant's chefs to prepare dozens of dishes.

Kung Pao chicken, fish-flavored shredded pork, couple's lung slices, spicy chicken, Maoxuewang, boiled fish, boiled meat slices, chicken bean curd, Bobo chicken, twice-cooked pork, spicy hot pot, red pepper fish, Li Xiao He prepared all the dishes he could think of at once.

"Shopkeeper, I've left this dish to you. Next, it's up to you how to present it."

Li Xiao will not interfere too much with Ma Xu. After all, this is a person with ideas. Too much interference by such a person may have counterproductive effects, so it is better to let him develop freely.

Ma Xu looked at the dozen or so dishes and his face broke into laughter. After sending Li Xiao and his wife away with smiles on their faces, Ma Xu immediately organized the backbone of the restaurant and formulated a plan for launching new dishes and related details.

Li Xiao and his wife stayed in Sichuan and Chongqing Mansion for a total of four days, and they never met Miss Tang until the day they left.

While inspecting Li Xiao's restaurant, Li Xiao finally learned the specific identity of the person: the daughter of Tang Wanwan, the richest man in Sichuan and Chongqing Prefecture. Because of her good family background and the magistrate of Sichuan and Chongqing was her brother-in-law, she had lived like a "country boy" since she was a child. "Princess", she has a high self-esteem and believes that no one in Sichuan and Chongqing is qualified to marry her, so she has not married her. Until now, she is already an old girl in her twenties.

The Tang family has many shops all over Sichuan and Chongqing, covering all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation. It can be said that they control almost half of the economy of Sichuan and Chongqing.

Sichuan and Chongqing people are xenophobic and do not like to move out of the country. They pursue "comfort" on weekdays. This also leads to the fact that the Tang family's power is basically in the Sichuan and Chongqing area.

Therefore, Li Xiao still admires Ma Xu, the shopkeeper, for being able to make Jixiang Restaurant in Sichuan and Chongqing Mansion one of the best in profitability under such circumstances.

"Hey, could it be that Miss Tang met another handsome man and couldn't spare any time to cause trouble for us?" Li Xiao said with a pity on the carriage.

When Ouyang Yiyun heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "What do you think of that insignificant person? If you have that time, you might as well think about where you want to go next."

"How could it be 'irrelevant'?" Li Xiao said disapprovingly. "After all, it is a delicate and tender peach blossom. It has already bloomed, but it is a pity that the following is not seen."

"You are just watching the excitement!" Ouyang Yiyun pinched his little wife's nose angrily, "Naughty!"

The couple were going back and forth in the carriage, and the atmosphere was just right. In the Tang Mansion, Tang Xin, who had recovered from the injury on her head yesterday, was walking in the garden of the Tang Mansion when her foot slipped for no apparent reason and she fell into the lake in the garden. inside.

In mid-November in Sichuan and Chongqing, although the temperature was not low, the water in the lake was still a little cold.

The injury on Tang Xin's head was not fully healed, but she suddenly fell into the lake and soaked in the lake water. The injury became inflamed and she became feverish, and she became seriously ill!

Tang Wanwan loved Yaonu at first, but now he actually killed the coachman and the maid who accompanied him out. As for the guard, he stayed after being beaten ten times. After all, it was a gift from the prefect's son-in-law. He, the father-in-law, is not easy to deal with either.

It was precisely because of this that Tang Xin never appeared in front of Li Xiao and his wife until they left, making them pay the so-called price.

After leaving Sichuan and Chongqing Mansion, Li Xiao and Li Xiao went directly to Qianzhou in the southeast, not caring at all what happened to the peach blossoms that had not yet had time to bloom.

Qianzhou is a place very similar to Sichuan and Chongqing. It is said that our ancestors migrated from the same place. However, after generations of reproduction and development, there are obvious differences in the natural environment and other factors between the two places. Today, the two places have There are more and more differences in all aspects.

However, similar to Sichuan and Chongqing who like to "eat", Qianzhou likes to "drink".

This is a place where Dali is rich in wine. Some people even vividly call Qianzhou the "wine cellar" of Dali. (End of chapter)
