Although Zuixianju is not as good as the five-star restaurants of the Northern Song Dynasty like Fan Lou and Feicui Xuan, it can still be regarded as a high-end restaurant, and the price of food and drinks is not lower than that of Jade Xuan. Ordinary people generally cannot afford it.
As soon as the fisherman entered, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
However, Li Qi specially taught these bartenders not to judge a book by appearance. No matter who he is, as long as he enters Zuixianju, he will be your god.
"Sir, how many are there?" A female bartender came up to greet you and said with a smile.
The fisherman glanced sideways and asked, "Did you see anyone behind me?"
The female bartender was taken aback for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile: "Sir, please come this way."
After that, the female bartender wanted to invite the fisherman to a table on the side. But the fisherman ignored him at all and went straight to an empty table in the middle to sit down and put the fishing basket, fishing rod and bamboo hat.
Throwing them all on the table shows that they are of low quality.
When the female bartender saw it, there was no trace of dissatisfaction on her face. She walked to the fisherman again and asked: "Sir, what do you want to order?"
The fisherman raised his head and glanced at the three couplets first, and then said: "First give me a pot of Unparalleled Pot to moisten my throat."
"Please wait."
The female bartender quickly served the fisherman a pot of Unparalleled Under Heaven, and handed over a menu and said: "Sir, this is the menu of our store. Take a look, what else do you need? The mandarin ducks in our store -
--."
"Yuanyang hotpot, right?"
The fisherman interrupted the female bartender. Seeing the smile she always maintained, he smiled slightly and said, "They say the bartenders in Zuixianju are eloquent. If I meet you today, that's true." At this point, he suddenly changed the topic,
He said: "But I had my fortune told a few days ago, and the fortune teller said that I avoid fire, so I will skip the mandarin duck pot."
"Then what do you want to eat?"
The fisherman smiled, suddenly picked up the fish basket, placed it in front of the female bartender, and said, "Eat them."
The female bartender had never encountered such a situation before, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a moment. She stared blankly at the fish basket in front of her.
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from the side, "Hey, it's strange that you, a fisherman, bring your own ingredients when you come to a restaurant to eat. Let me see what good things they are."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hand stretched out from behind and took the fish basket over.
The fisherman turned around and saw a young man.
This young man is none other than Hong Tianjiu. He has always liked liveliness, so he does not want to eat in the private room on the third floor. He would rather eat in the lobby on this floor with everyone else.
Hong Tianjiu curiously looked into the fish basket and saw that there were only four small shrimps in it. He said disappointedly: "What did I think? It turned out to be just a few stinky shrimps."
The fisherman reacted and immediately reached out to snatch the fish basket back. He said angrily: "You are such a rude young man. If you kill my shrimp, can you afford to pay for it?"
When Hong Tianjiu saw that the fisherman regarded the shrimp as a treasure, he was not angry but smiled and said: "I know it's unreasonable, so I just took it for a look. If I were reasonable, I would have thrown this broken fish basket of yours outside."
It smells fishy, and I won't let anyone eat. If I don't have a good meal today, can you afford to pay for it?"
Seeing that Hong Tianjiu was a tough guy, the fisherman didn't dare to mess with him anymore. He said to the female bartender, "Take this shrimp to the kitchen. This will be my lunch today."
The female bartender was stunned for a moment and said: "Sir, I'm sorry, are you a gold member of this store?"
The fisherman wondered: "What does this have to do with gold membership?"
The female bartender nodded and smiled: "That's right. Only gold members of the store can taste Master Li's craftsmanship."
The fisherman was stunned for a moment and said: "It seems that the chef of your restaurant is really delicate."
Hong Tianjiu interrupted again: "I think you should pay for the drinks quickly and go elsewhere. This gold membership card is worth sixty coins. Do you have that much money?"
The fisherman smiled slightly, and suddenly took out four ingots of silver from his arms, one ingot of twenty taels, a total of eighty taels, and asked the bartender: "Is that enough?"
The female bartender was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "That's enough, that's enough."
"No way, where did you steal the money?" Hong Tianjiu said in shock.
The fisherman rolled his eyes and pretended not to hear.
At this time, Wu Furong, who had been watching for a long time, realized that something was wrong. He came over and said to the female bartender: "You take the fish basket to the kitchen, and I will apply for the gold card for this guest.
"
Whether it is an ordinary member or a gold member, detailed records must be recorded and the guests must sign.
The female bartender responded, picked up the fish basket and turned around to go to the kitchen.
"Wait a minute."
The fisherman suddenly raised his hand to stop the female bartender and said with a smile: "Did I do what I said?"
The female bartender was stunned and looked at the fisherman with questioning eyes.
The fisherman stretched out his hand and touched his belly and said, "I'm quite hungry now. One dish will definitely not be enough to eat. How about this? You ask your chef to make six dishes with these shrimps."
"Hey! Are you here to bring bad luck on purpose? You have to cook six dishes for four tiny shrimps? You can make them for me to see. Not to mention eighty taels, even one hundred taels. I will do it."
Give it." Hong Tianjiu frowned and said angrily.
The fisherman was dumbfounded by Hong Tianjiu, but he didn't dare to say anything. He shrugged towards Wu Furong and said: "I put the money here. If the chef of your restaurant can't even cook a few shrimps, then I
It’s better to eat somewhere else.”
Wu Furong frowned slightly. He had already said this, and there were so many guests watching him. If he were to leave just like that, wouldn't he tell others that the chef of Zuixianju didn't even have a few shrimps?
He couldn't even cook it, so he nodded towards the female bartender and said, "Take the fish basket to the kitchen."
But he didn't apply for a membership for the fisherman because he didn't know whether Li Qi could make six dishes with these four shrimps.
The fisherman seemed to have noticed Wu Furong's thoughts, but he didn't say much. He smiled slightly, took a sip of the wine, and praised: "Good wine, good wine, unparalleled in the world. It really deserves its reputation."
In the kitchen.
Wu Xiaoliu took the fish basket, glanced at the four small shrimps inside, and said angrily: "I'm afraid these small shrimps can't even be removed from the pot, and we have to cook six dishes? How can we do this?"
Li Qi rolled his eyes at Wu Xiaoliu and asked the bartender: "You mean that man is a fisherman and he also took out eighty taels of silver?"
The female bartender nodded.
Li Qi squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then glanced at the fish basket, suddenly smiled and said: "Go and tell that person, it's okay to cook six dishes, but each dish costs five taels of silver, and the six dishes total are three
Shiliang, if you want to do it, do it. If you don't want to, just let him go to another house. Remember, let him decide quickly. There are already few tables in Zuixianju, so don't occupy the latrine without shitting.
."
The female bartender remembered Li Qi's words, turned her back and walked out.
"Brother Li, your plan is too clever. If you pay five taels of silver for a dish, that person will definitely be reluctant to part with it. In this way, you will not only damage your reputation, but also drive him away. It's really wonderful to kill two birds with one stone!"
"You are so handsome."
Li Qi glared at him and sneered: "Let's see, that person will definitely be willing to pay for it."
"What?"
Wu Xiaoliu exclaimed and said, "Brother Li, is it possible that you really plan to use these four shrimps to make six dishes?"
Li Qi smiled slightly and said: "What's wrong with this? We just make money by cooking. Since the guests are willing to pay, then of course we have to do it. If these little shrimps can't handle it, then I'll
I’m going home to farm, so go and help me prepare some materials right away.”
hall.
The guests who were watching on the side immediately exclaimed when they heard the female bartender say that a dish costs five taels of silver. This is really not ordinary expensive.
After hearing this, Hong Tianjiu thought that Li Qi was deliberately trying to force the fisherman away with a high price, and said with a proud smile: "You heard clearly, it's thirty taels, not thirty cents."
The fisherman laughed and said: "It seems that your chef still wants to keep me. If he says that each dish costs one or fifteen taels, then I will really have to go to another restaurant." After saying this, he immediately took out his food.
He handed sixty taels to Wu Furong and said, "Old shopkeeper, I'm sorry to bother you."
When everyone saw that he was really willing to pay thirty taels, they were in an uproar again.
Hong Tianjiu was completely confused. He thought he was good at spending money, but compared to the uncle in front of him, he was only ashamed.
