Chapter 177

Shuijia Noodle Restaurant is a relatively famous tavern in Jingjiazhuang. It has been passed down for three generations and is also quite large in scale, occupying an entire courtyard.

The catering industry in the Ming Dynasty was actually quite developed. However, popular foods such as hot pot, skewers, and barbecue were not very popular. Not at all, but there were several restaurants with this feature. The purpose was only to satisfy customers who tried it out, and these restaurants were of relatively low grade.

Therefore, in some time travel novels, what are the barbecue, hot pot, pig slaughter vegetables, etc., and the natives are all ate their eyes full of tears? Anyway, just take a story and don’t be serious. In fact, if you eat these when treating them, then you will be hilarious, and the specific results can be supplemented.

At this time, the catering industry has developed to the extreme without getting tired of food. Its color, fragrance and taste are only second-rate. Top dishes depend on the rareness of the ingredients and the difficulty of cooking.

From a certain perspective, if you don’t care about the luxury, the modern catering industry is actually not as developed as the Ming Dynasty. For example, there were high-quality banquets in this era, and the dishes were arranged just for the sake of good looks, reflecting the noble value of treating guests, and the ingredients were very expensive. Nine courses, eighteen courses, etc., the most typical one is the one hundred and eight courses when the emperor was dining. Even in this social atmosphere, these people cannot be completely blamed for wasting them. Of course, these dishes can also be eaten, and the taste is very good. However, people who can play with such tables will basically never move their chopsticks.

However, the Shuijia Noodle Restaurant is a relatively popular type, and its characteristic is various dishes with radish as the main ingredients. However, now, there is definitely no simple boiled radish, such as shredded radish sea cucumber, radish shrimp, radish yellow croaker soup, etc., which have actually been the main and second-order switches.

When Qin Bai came to the Shuijia Noodle Restaurant, Tiesheng had already ordered the table. He looked at Tiesheng and found that his eyes were exhausted. Qin Bai smiled and sat down and poured wine for himself. He thought it was a big boss, but it was not that easy to raise so many brothers.

When Tie Sheng noticed Qin Bai's expression, he couldn't help laughing: "Bai Er, do you feel that I am becoming more and more imposing?"

He picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and smiled and said, "I didn't wear flowers today, I have a bad review!"

"Fuck! I bought a few new silk flowers, when will I give you one?"

"Hehe, thank you. I thank you on behalf of my wife!"

"You don't understand this, right? The silk flowers worn by men are different from women. Hey, you really want to accept that girl Ding? It's nothing to find a few women to have fun, but there are legends outside that you are trapped in a gentle place, and you lose your spirit at the beginning. It's good to use money to buy people's hearts, but don't hold your fists? Don't forget, this is Jingjiazhuang!"

"hehe."

Qin Bai understood that Tie Sheng was kind-hearted, but he didn't want Tie Sheng to know many things. So he changed the topic: "Where is the leopard?"

"I'm going to arrange for my brothers to start work. I'm throwing all the troubles to him." Tie Sheng smiled, "By the way, Bai Er, I really have something to do with you today. Can you lend me some people? I can't arrange it here."

"Oh? Are you so busy?" Qin Bai was a little surprised.

"Hey! It's not that the martial arts center has come forward to Mr. Jun and said that the situation in the Salt Gang is not good. So we used the people we Yongsheng, but we wanted too much at once, so I'm a little short of it."

Then Tie Sheng briefly introduced the situation. It turned out that the situation of the Salt Gang became worse and worse, so Feng Sihai took the initiative to come forward and talked about Huang Jun, who was the Salt Gang. In the world, this situation was not rare, and it had a natural rejection of foreigners, especially facing the Yangzhou salt merchants and crossing the river.

However, when we come forward to make peace, it is impossible to just open our mouths and need appropriate bright muscles. Therefore, Feng Sihai took away a group of subordinates from the martial arts hall. But in this way, there is not much enough manpower. So he asked Yongsheng to withdraw his manpower, which would not affect the business of the He Mansion, right?

According to the prior agreement, Yongsheng should have provided all the personnel under Tie Sheng. However, the increase in business volume has also made Tie Sheng very difficult.

Qin Bai was happy, but he didn't expect such a chain reaction to happen. He asked with a smile: "Tiezi, how many people do you have now?"

"It's more than five hundred, right? I haven't counted it carefully."

“More than five hundred is not enough?”

"You really don't know. There are always about 200 left here, right? You need to buy charcoal and see the venue. I thought it must be enough, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen. It's a helping me, how about it?"

"Then Master Feng didn't give me an explanation?" Qin Bai asked again. It was agreed that there were only 200 people a year, which is far more than now. You must know that such a fulfillment of obligations is not good at all. Except for dry food, you don't need to bring your own food, everything else needs to be solved by yourself.

"My master gave us 30% of the freight fee."

Qin Bai smiled and nodded. It turns out that there are people in the court who are easy to be an official, and others may not have such a cheap matter at all. After thinking about it, Qin Bai nodded and agreed: "Then I will give you fifty people. It is considered as an emergency between brothers. You can keep the money yourself, and I will pay the military salary for these fifty people."

Qin Bai didn't look down on these small profits at all. However, he couldn't just practice hard, and he also needed to accumulate experience in the martial arts world. After so many years of traveling around the world, he must have his own tricks, which is difficult for outsiders to learn. Since there is such an opportunity, it might as well learn something secretly.

"Fifty people? Is it too few?" Tie Sheng was not satisfied. He was indeed a little worried at the moment.

"I'll give you 50 people who can ride horses. Brother, I'll give you all the foundation." Qin Bai smiled. The reason why he was willing to give people was for experience points, but he never thought of working hard for He Mansion and Zhenwei Martial Arts Hall. So he chose to practice equestrians well and he could escape in time at critical moments.

Tie Sheng's eyes lit up: "That's great! Haha!" He thought that those who could ride horses were generally very skilled in martial arts and could at least have three combat power. Qin Bai was not perfunctory. If he recruited more than a hundred miscellaneous soldiers casually, he would be enough to be led by those riding horses.

"But I have a requirement. Forage and other things are yours."

"No problem, a small matter."

"There is also the centralized use, so they cannot be separated, so they can be divided into two batches at most?"

"Don't worry, they are all my brothers, and I can't bear to leave them either? Thank you! Let's go?"

"hehe."
