Chapter 95: Fish market rules, distinguished guests come to the inn
When Meng Xingyuan heard this, the smile on his face changed slightly, but he still asked politely:
"But it doesn't matter. Shopkeeper Zhou has helped us so much that we can't refuse."
"Haha, that's it..."
After Zhou Shi told Meng Xingyuan that Fengdelou needed access to Hexian fresh food, he felt relieved.
It's not an unreasonable request... He thought that Zhou Shi would take this opportunity to speak loudly. Of course, being reasonable and reasonable, he would try his best to satisfy the other party no matter what conditions he proposed.
"What, Shopkeeper Meng, if you are in trouble, forget it."
Meng Xingyuan couldn't help but sigh, it seemed that he was judging a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart.
"It's not difficult, it's not difficult. Shopkeeper, let's go in and sit down and talk."
The two walked into the front hall. It was already afternoon, and the guys were all busy in the backyard. There were no guests in the front hall, so it was a quiet place.
"When it comes to Jiangdu's aquatic products, of course it's best to go to the fish market. However, the fish market also has fish market rules. Please don't find it troublesome, Shopkeeper Zhou."
Zhou Shi immediately expressed his position: "There is no rule without rules. Please give me some advice from Shopkeeper Meng."
"Okay. We can only say this in private, please don't spread it. Now the Jiangdu Fish Market is controlled by the Baitiao Gang, and all transactions must go through their hands. Although there are some fishermen who sell on their own, if you buy their
If you don’t have fish, it’s impossible to step into the fish market again.”
Is it a monopoly? Zhou Shi thought to himself and continued to listen.
"Of course, this is not without its benefits. Some fishermen like to bully laymen, pass off inferior products, and charge exorbitant prices. Those who lack vision can easily be deceived. But there is no such problem in the fish market. All aquatic products are inspected by dedicated personnel.
, and it is marked. If there is something wrong with the fish you bought, you can go back to the fish market and ask for a return or compensation."
From this point of view, Baitiao Gang actually played the role of early market supervision, which was also beneficial to buyers and sellers. However, there is definitely a lot of profit here.
After Meng Xingyuan introduced the basic situation, he then talked about how to enter the fish market.
"First of all, someone needs to introduce you to the leader of the Baitiao Gang. If you don't mind, then I will be the middleman."
Zhou Shi immediately clasped his fists: "Thank you, Shopkeeper Meng."
"Of course, a meeting gift is indispensable. But this hall master doesn't love money, he only loves food. As long as he brings out Fengdelou's signature dishes, he will definitely be able to pass the hall master's test. However, you still need to prepare some gifts to use for responsible management.
The steward of the fish market, after all, the steward is the person you will have to deal with every day.
"In addition, every time you enter the fish market, you must first report your identity and what you need to buy, and then a dedicated person will lead you to the corresponding stall. There are fish in different categories, and you can just weigh them. Oh, for
To avoid being short of weight, you can bring your own scale with you. You cannot stay in the fish market after the transaction is completed, and you must leave directly with the leader."
Is this really buying fish...
"I wrote it down."
"Actually, it's not a big deal. Even if you break the rules, at most you will just be reminded and said sorry. Unless you violate the rules maliciously multiple times, the fish market will politely ask the person out and ask him not to come back again.
”
"I understand. When will Shopkeeper Meng be free, please introduce me to the hall master."
"As long as you can make time, how about tomorrow morning? The host likes to entertain guests in the morning."
In the morning...it seems that I have to prepare when I go back.
"No problem." Zhou Shi agreed and then said, "How is Master Liang doing lately?"
"Master Liang?" Meng Xingyuan was stunned. He didn't know what he was doing when he mentioned the boss of Yueqing Tower at this time. "It's very good. Thank you, shopkeeper Zhou, for thinking about me."
"My Xue An received a lot of care from Master Liang last time. I would like to invite him to sit down at Fengde Building and give him some advice on the kitchen. Is it convenient for Master Liang?"
Meng Xingyuan was even more confused, was Xue An being taken care of by Fatty Liang? It was obviously Xue An who took care of the entire Yueqing Building and discovered the bugs in Jiang Tuan in time, otherwise the prefect's birthday banquet would have been ruined!
Then I thought about it. After the banquet, Fatty Liang repeatedly praised Xue An's abilities, saying how he could never be as good as him...
Oh! Only then did he realize that Fatty Liang wanted to learn some skills from Xue An, and Zhou Shi tactfully agreed, taking care of the face of Fatty Liang and Yue Qinglou!
"There's nothing inconvenient about this, as long as it doesn't disturb Fengde Building's business..."
"What are you talking about! Shopkeeper Meng, this is a boat race with endless rivers. If Master Liang can give us some advice, it will be good for Yueqing Tower. Don't you think so?"
Thousands of boats race across the river, and the river flows...
When Jiangdu City was first built, the four famous restaurants in Jiangdu were just a few unknown restaurants among countless restaurants. It was the competition and exchanges between them that made them stand out. Fengdelou, who came from the capital, learned from the Jianghuai style and made it a success.
Yue Qinglou, which features Lingnan cuisine, boldly draws on northern characteristics, which are the result of mutual learning.
But now, the four famous buildings have become portals, and they are very careful about their craftsmanship, for fear of being robbed by their opponents...
Meng Xingyuan understood that this was Zhou Zhi's implicit expression of dissatisfaction with the family hierarchy in Jiangdu restaurants. Thinking back to his previous... Alas, the pattern, the pattern was so different!
"That's what you said."
Zhou Shi chatted with Meng Xingyuan about some business matters and gossip before leaving Yueqing Building.
After he left, Meng Xingyuan looked at the yard and was lost in thought for a while.
"Thousands of boats race across the river, and the river never stops flowing. It's a good saying..."
Back at Fengde Building, Zhou Shi told Xue An about the gifts he was going to give to the leader of the Bai Tiao Gang, asking him to make preparations in advance.
"It all depends on whether the fish you want can be delivered, so do it well."
That night, the Yin Hun Inn opened. Mr. Mo released the Yin Hun that broke in last night and found that it was still in extreme fear, muttering "Mother Xu".
"Mo Lao, this can't work." Zhou Shi said distressedly, and asked the ghost without any hope, "Hey, what's your name?"
Unexpectedly, when the ghost heard this, he suddenly raised his head.
Any reaction? Zhou Shi asked again: "What is your name? Can you understand it?"
"Huang Yun, my name is Huang Yun, Huang Yun..."
It read its name countless times, and then said "Mother Xu" in a trembling voice.
At least there was some progress... Seeing that it couldn't say anything else, Zhou Shi asked Mr. Mo to take Huang Yun in and take care of the other ghosts himself.
At a quarter past three, it was time to check out and send the guests off. Zhou Shi finished knocking on the iron abacus, and in the blink of an eye he saw a ghost still sitting at the table.
Hey, it’s here! He was so happy that he sat across from it and asked about the situation.
Unexpectedly, when this ghost mentioned his hatred, Zhou Shi couldn't help but sigh: You really get what you want, this distinguished guest has been a big help!
