Lao Zhu looked like he wouldn't dare to forgive you, and then let Han Du go.
He turned to Tang He and said, "Brother, why didn't you inform us of such an important matter? Speaking of which, do we still have a stake in this restaurant? After all, we also have a share in this restaurant."
Han Du listened and thought to himself, as expected, Tang He used the restaurant's stock to persuade Lao Zhu last time. No wonder Lao Zhu went out of his way to take the lead in letting all officials eat seafood at the court meeting, probably in order to expand the customer base for this seafood restaurant. Seafood is a novelty in comparison. If the restaurant opens and no one dares to eat it, wouldn't the restaurant lose all its money?
Han Du silently praised Tang He in his heart. Even though he gave Lao Zhu a lot of dick, Han Du also recognized it.
Tang He smiled, stroking his beard and replied: "I see that my superiors are busy with everything, so I feel there is no need to disturb my superiors with such trivial matters."
Tang He explained it and said nothing more on this topic. He didn't know whether the superior wanted to come out for some air today, or if he had some other purpose.
In line with the mentality that talking too much will lead to mistakes, Tang He quickly changed the topic and started chatting with Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu did not continue to dwell on this topic, and followed Tang He to talk about other things.
When Han Du and Tang Ding saw this, they looked at each other and sighed secretly. Originally, when Lao Zhu didn't come, both of them could still sit down at the table. But now that Lao Zhu came and sat down, the two of them could only stand and wait.
There's no way, who told them to be the only two juniors here?
However, Han Du was still lucky. At least after Lao Zhu came, he didn't have to get drunk with Tang He, which meant he was spared the trouble of being drunk.
Lao Zhu drank some distilled wine, his face turned red, and he asked Tang He a little drunkenly: "Brother Xian, the name of this seafood restaurant is good, but it was opened in a hurry."
Tang He was in the same state as Lao Zhu. He shook his head lightly and explained: "The name was chosen at random. Isn't it just a fancy word for eating these things? Plus, since it is something in the sea, it naturally is It starts with the word "海".
He spread his hands and said: "That's how the name came about. As for the haste, hahaha, I'm not afraid of being laughed at. I can't live without this mouthful for a day now. I'm going to enjoy it before going on the expedition. .”
After hearing this, Lao Zhu smiled and continued chatting with Tang He and Li Wenzhong.
The seafood restaurant opened under such lukewarm circumstances. To be honest, on the opening day, the entrance to the seafood restaurant was bustling with activity all day long. Firecrackers and gongs and drums were blaring non-stop, which was an eye-opener for the people in the capital who love to watch the excitement. To be honest, Tang He didn’t invite anyone except Xu Da and others. Even Xu Da didn’t come. If Lao Zhu hadn’t come uninvited in the end, the opening of this seafood restaurant would have been extremely deserted. .
However, no matter it is hot or cold, the seafood restaurant still opened under such circumstances. And judging from the situation in the next few days, business is still good. At first, some officials who really wanted to take a bite came to visit, and then wealthy businessmen who were curious came to visit.
From this point of view, it is effective for Lao Zhu to force officials to eat seafood at the court meeting. If this hadn't happened, I'm afraid no official would come to the door, let alone wealthy businessmen.
The days passed day by day, and soon it was the day for Tang He to go to war.
On this day, Zhu Yuanzhang worshiped Xu Da as the general who conquered the captives, Xin Guogong Tang He as the left deputy general, and Yingchuan Marquis Fu Youde as the right deputy general. He led the army to the north and led hundreds of officials to practice for the army.
As a capital official, Han Du naturally had to stand among the hundreds of officials behind Lao Zhu to practice for the army. As Han Du's eighth-grade official, he was naturally not qualified to stand in the front row and could only stand far behind. You can't even see Tang He's figure clearly, you can only see the person standing on the stage in a bright yellow dragon robe, who is obviously Lao Zhu, and the person opposite who is covered in armor is naturally Xu Da. As for the two people standing behind Xu Da, Han Du could only guess that one of them was Tang He.
The entire farewell ceremony was complicated and lasted from morning until noon when the army officially set off.
Lao Zhu just stood on the high platform and watched the army set off. He didn't know whether Lao Zhu was reluctant to leave Xu Da, Tang He and others to go on the expedition, or whether he was worried because he was not sure about the northern expedition. Only after the army was no longer visible did Lao Zhu order the officials to disperse and return to the palace alone.
Han Du, who was among the crowd, felt a burst of sadness in his heart for some reason as he watched the army march out. In the past, the thoughts of the game world suddenly became extremely indifferent, and a heavy sense of reality suddenly pressed on me. At this time, Han Du discovered that the connection between himself and the previous life was getting weaker and weaker, but the connection with the Ming Dynasty was getting closer and closer, and he felt like he was integrating into it.
Tang He followed the army to the north. Without such an elder who cared about him, Han Du suddenly felt lonely. In order to prevent himself from being immersed in this atmosphere and becoming depressed, Han Du devoted himself wholeheartedly to the decoration of the shop.
After several days of continuous work under Xiong Ting's instructions from Han Du, the mirror shop that had been waiting for so long was finally ready to open.
Xiong Ting came up with a smile on his face and asked, "My lord, this shop is all done. Now everything is ready. All we need is a loud plaque. Sir, what do you think the name of this shop is?"
name?
Han Du suddenly remembered that when Lao Zhu went to the seafood restaurant a few days ago, he specifically asked how the name 'seafood restaurant' was chosen. Han Du didn't notice anything was wrong at the time, but looking back now, there was something in Lao Zhu's words. First of all, Han Du is sure that Lao Zhu has a special liking for names. Otherwise, why would he ask about the name of 'Seafood Restaurant' with such concern? Didn't he just come to pick it up? Secondly, Lao Zhu seemed to look down on the name "Seafood House" in his words at first. It was only because Tang He said he chose it that Lao Zhu gave up and didn't say anything more?
Although the above is Han Du's guess, Han Du only needs to try it to find out whether it is true.
In line with the mentality that flattering must be done in full, and the person being photographed cannot be made to feel uncomfortable, Han Du went to the palace to see Lao Zhu.
As expected, Lao Zhu was in Fengtian Hall, reviewing the memorials as always.
Seeing Han Du arriving, he spared Han Du's courtesy and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Back to the emperor, I have already arranged the matter of selling mirrors. Now I just need a loud sign. I have little talent and knowledge, and I really can't think of a satisfactory name, so I came to ask the Pope." Han Du said with a smile.
