The Days of Opening a Restaurant on an Abnormal Earth

At Jiang Hua's hot pot restaurant, Jiang Hua invited Zhang Haisheng over.

"Oh, old classmate, I told you I wanted to invite you to dinner. How can I ask you to turn back? I'm so sorry." Zhang Haisheng was wearing his Burberry clothes and a Patek Philippe watch, and waved his hand while speaking. Inadvertently, the emerald ring on her finger emitted a faint green light.

Among other things, Zhang Haisheng's economic strength is still very good, at least for now, he is worth tens of millions. For a person who has no family background and relies on personal hard work to develop, he is already a model among many peers that can be used as a teaching material.

Zhang Haisheng is also used to being praised by others, so he is somewhat arrogant, and it is also because of this kind of pride that he dislikes Zhang Tong even more.

Zhang Tong followed behind Jiang Hua, smiling and not speaking.

Zhang Tong felt that it would be better to take care of Zhang Haisheng this time. Because Jiang Hua is his girlfriend, it's not good that some men keep thinking about her all the time.

You must know that bulldogs can also protect food. If Lao Zhang wants to find an analogy in canine, at least he can be regarded as an Alaskan wolf.

And Zhang Haisheng is a Bomei in Zhang Tong's eyes. Isn't it funny that a little Bomei actually wants to snatch something that he likes.

When it's time to make a move, he will make a move. Lao Zhang's personality is that he is in a hurry.

But after all, he also broke a few fingers, so he is considered disabled, so Zhang Tong can't go too far. Although he told Ji Xiaochun to urinate blood before, Lao Zhang still considers himself a good person.

Zhang Tong nodded to Zhang Haisheng without changing his face: "Xiao Zhang is here."

It was still the tone of a great leader, and Zhang Haisheng was furious about it. How to pretend, I already know what you are, and you still pretend to be in front of me? !

"Hehe." Zhang Haisheng smiled, and said to Jiang Hua who was beside him: "Your boyfriend is really interesting. You are not a grandiose person."

Jiang Hua smiled: "What is the style, he is just used to talking like this."

"Hehe." Zhang Haisheng smiled and said nothing. If he doesn't get back the place he lost earlier today, he will be considered a loser.

Jiang Hua's family also has several hot pot restaurants in Shuangqing, but this one is on the edge of Yuzhong District, not the central area of ​​Jiefangbei Square. Because the store in Jiefangbei Square is fully booked.

Catering now is completely different from the society before Zhang Tong left. In 1999, wanted to find a restaurant to eat on the day before the Chinese New Year? Dream it! Most restaurants close until three days before Chinese New Year's Eve, and then stay open until at least the sixth day of Chinese New Year. Some restaurants even stay closed until after the Lantern Festival.

Unlike now, Jiang Hua's hot pot restaurant will only close in the afternoon of the New Year's Eve, and it will be open normally on the first day of the New Year's Day.

In the private room, Zhang Haisheng took out a bottle of red wine from his carry-on bag and said, "Come on, I wanted to say that I'm treating you. But since you won't let me, then I have to send a bottle of good wine. Imported from European wineries. good red wine."

Zhang Tong raised his eyebrows: "Red wine with hot pot?"

"Well, it's okay to save the steak for next time." Zhang Haisheng revealed the matter with a wave of his hand. Originally, he wanted to show off that this bottle of red wine was worth tens of thousands.

Although Jiang Hua has found a boyfriend now, Zhang Haisheng is not discouraged at all. After all, in Zhang Haisheng's view, Zhang Tong has no advantages or strengths. That is to say, he is handsomer than himself, taller than himself, has a better figure than himself, and has a better temperament than himself. Besides, is there anything else he can compare to himself? ! Not at all!

So after Zhang Haisheng figured out Zhang Tong's identity, he still had a psychological advantage over Zhang Tong. He felt that Jiang Hua was blind for a while so he didn't see Zhang Tong's true face clearly, otherwise he would have worshiped him long ago. A high-quality diamond man like myself is Jiang Hua's good home.

"Hey, but let's not talk about it. Pairing steak with red wine has been slowly popularized in China in recent years. Zhang Tong, you haven't eaten a serious steak and red wine bar before you travel." Zhang Haisheng smiled Speak, but with guns and sticks in what you say.

"Hehe, I really didn't eat it before the time travel. But I ate a lot after the time travel. After all, I opened a restaurant when I went to another world. The materials are limited and I can't cook Chinese food with complicated seasonings. I can only cook some simple western steaks and so on. After all, steak doesn’t need much seasoning, just a pinch of salt and a head of garlic is enough to make it. Whether it’s low-temperature slow cooking or fast-fire grilling, in the end, what you eat is the same texture and the original taste of beef, and the difficulty of making it is actually not at all Not high. At least not as good as Dongpo's elbow."

"Oh, if you say that, don't you think Western food is very simple?"

"You can't say that, but in the end it's just a novelty. It's also artificially elevated. It's like red wine. The bottle of red wine you brought is from the Burgundy production area. It is estimated that it will sell for several dollars in China A thousand dollars."

"Hehe, it's not expensive, only seven thousand." Zhang Haisheng smiled modestly.

Zhang Tong also smiled cooperatively, and then changed the topic: "Although it is a Burgundy-producing area, the red wine in Burgundy-producing areas does not mean that it is of a high standard. At least there are wines in Burgundy. Dozens of vineyards, hundreds of wineries. Just like Bordeaux, domestic hotels are selling Bordeaux red wine. And as long as it is really produced in Bordeaux and Burgundy (Note 1), then basically There is no price lower than 500 yuan."

"But in fact, the number of wineries in these regions is uneven. There are indeed high-end wineries that sell high-quality wines at very expensive prices. But that is a small number after all. Most of the wineries actually sell red wines that are not expensive. .In Europe, it may only need to be sold for five to ten euros, but in China, it can be sold for five hundred to one thousand when the dealer brags about it. And those red wines with better quality can be sold for fifty to eighty euros in Europe. The goods can be sold for more than 3,000 yuan in China (Note 2). Because the agent of the wine merchant knows that the Chinese don’t know wine that well. Although the French themselves may not understand it.”

Listening to what Zhang Tong said, Zhang Haisheng's face turned white and red for a while. After a while, he said, "The wine you make is as cheap as you said!"

"It's almost the price I said. After all, European agriculture has subsidies, and the cost of growing grapes after subsidies is almost zero. In fact, when Europeans buy red wine, they go to the sorghum wine brewery at the entrance of the community with the old man in our community to buy on-site. The brewed bulk sorghum wine is similar. Of course, some red wines are of high grade, like Maotai Wuliangye in baijiu. But generally such wines are not bought for self-drinking, and people who drink these wines never have to pay the bill .”

Zhang Tong put away Zhang Haisheng's Burgundy red wine while talking, still smiling. It seems that it is simply a review of the origin of the red wine.

But Jiang Hua looked at Zhang Tong strangely, and she thought to herself: It's strange, Lao Zhang didn't usually see him studying red wine. How do you say it's a set? Knowing so clearly, it's like Baidu Encyclopedia on the spot. His knowledge reserve is a bit rich.

Zhang Tong, on the other hand, looked like the Buddha said, with a compassionate smile on his face: "Brother Zhang Haisheng, calm down. Your finger has just been operated on, so don't get too excited, or it will die again. Come on, let me let you know." Serve the food, let's chat while eating."

Looking at Zhang Tong's smiling face, Zhang Haisheng felt that he might lose more people today...

Note 1: Regarding brewing red wine and drinking blended red wine, almost all red wines below 50 yuan in China are blended red wine. Made with grape juice, food coloring and alcohol with flavor enhancers. The wine produced in this way is cheap and smooth in the mouth, which is easy for women and children to drink. The disadvantage is that there are too many pigments and food additives.

Compared with blended red wine, low-priced brewed red wine has no advantage. A dry red wine worth 80 yuan or 100 yuan may not taste as good as the blended red wine under its own brand for 40 to 50 yuan. However, it is still not recommended to blend red wine, because it is really unclear what is added in the blending process. And don't know what source of alcohol was used.

Note 2: The price of European red wine is actually not expensive. In European supermarkets, the red wine usually served with meals by Europeans is about 5-10 Euros. For example, if you travel to Europe, such as France, and then go to a mid-range restaurant with an average consumption of 40 to 80 Euros per person. The red wine they provide is basically around 8 to 15 euros. And it's by the cup. It's the same in restaurants all over the world, and the price of drinks doubles when they enter the restaurant. The wine in the restaurant costs thirty to fifty euros, and you can go to Walmart to find it for about ten euros. This is already considered a very good red wine. Generally, when European middle-class people go to other people’s houses for dinner, if they bring a bottle of wine worth 15 to 20 Euros, the owner will be very happy, thinking that you have brought a good bottle of wine.

The price difference between domestically imported European red wine and local European wines is generally double, and in some cases, it is three times or even five times or ten times. This is really not a simple tax issue, but a dealer deliberately raising the price of imported goods.
