Chapter 523: The world is fishing
"Village chief, the place we are going to now is a hot pot place called Tianxialao." Meng Yi said.
"Tian Xia Lao?"
Everyone looked at Meng Yi suspiciously, what the hell is this name?
Seeing everyone's doubts, Meng Yi smiled and said: "Yes, sir, I got it from you. He said that hot pot is like barbecue, one can rinse everything, and the other can grill everything.
Since everything can be rinsed, it is called world fishing. "
"That should be called Tianxiashabu," Li Si said.
Meng Yi said with a smile: "Because when eating hot pot, we are used to putting the ingredients into the hot pot first, and then picking them up before eating.
That’s why it’s called Tian Xia Lao. "
It turned out to be so, and everyone suddenly realized it again.
"But that's not right. We have all eaten hot pot. This is not considered high-end cuisine."
Meng Yi said with a smile: "Tianxialao is not only about fresh ingredients, but the most important thing is the service."
Serve? Why is it about service? Can you enter a high-end consumer area with good service?
Just when everyone was suspicious, Meng Yi said again: "Village chief, and everyone, let's go there now."
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, let me see what qualifications Tianxialao has to become a high-end restaurant."
Immediately, everyone, led by Meng Yi, arrived at the door of Tianxialao.
"Village chief, this is Tianxialao." Meng Yi pointed to the plaque of Tianxialao.
When everyone looked up, they saw a shiny golden plaque with the words "Tian Xia Lao" engraved on it.
These are three characters written by Qin An in wild cursive, with a vigorous and uninhibited style.
"Good calligraphy." Ying Zheng praised it.
Nowadays, Da Qin has popularized simplified Chinese characters, and there are also traditional Chinese characters, but the people who learn traditional Chinese characters are all Confucians, in order to make them feel superior to others.
This was done intentionally by Ying Zheng.
Ordinary people can only learn simplified Chinese characters, and simplified Chinese characters are also popular.
"This is Mr.'s handwriting. Nowadays, Mr.'s handwriting is hard to find." Meng Yi said.
"I will buy such beautiful calligraphy even if it costs ten thousand gold." Meng Xifan said.
He is the descendant of Mencius and he also likes calligraphy very much. Especially after he got pen, ink, paper and inkstone, he began to study calligraphy and wanted to invent several fonts like Qin An.
"That's a coincidence. I recently obtained a piece of calligraphy from Mr. Meng. If the Master of the Meng family wants it, I can sell it." Meng Yi said.
Ying Zheng suddenly frowned and said, "You sold Qin An's calligraphy treasure so easily. Isn't it a bit too much?"
Meng Yi immediately bowed and said: "Actually, it was my husband who asked me to sell it. One time I accidentally said that his calligraphy treasures are worth thousands of gold.
So, my husband said that he should sell it, since he wouldn’t be able to keep it anyway. Immediately, I became a person who specializes in selling calligraphy treasures for him. "
Ying Zheng suddenly became interested and asked, "How much can his calligraphy be sold for?"
"Then it depends on what you are going to sell." Meng Yi said, "If it is an ordinary inscription, one word will cost one hundred guan. If it is a poem, it will be worth thousands to tens of thousands of guan. If it is a masterpiece that will last forever, it will cost hundreds of thousands. Want it too.
Master Meng, I have in my hands an eternal masterpiece, no, an eternal quatrain. If you want it, I can give it to you.
I can tell you responsibly that whoever owns this eternal quatrain will be famous all over the world even if he never produces any works again. "
After everyone heard this, they all had strange thoughts.
Ying Zheng said, "Okay. We'll talk about this later. We're all hungry, so let's go in first."
"promise."
Immediately, Meng Yi opened the door and let everyone in.
"Welcome distinguished guests, how many are there?" A waiter greeted with a smile.
Ying Zheng said: "There are eight in total."
"Please follow me," the waiter said immediately.
Then he took everyone to a round table. The table was neither big nor small. There was a hot pot in the middle and underneath
There is a stove.
Then the waiter thoughtfully took out a pencil and menu, and gave one to each of the eight people.
"The decoration here is so beautifully decorated, even more beautiful than a clothing store." Gan Luo said,
He is a young man and his pursuit of beauty is stronger than that of Gan Mao and others.
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "It is indeed beautiful. I don't know who designed it. It is magnificent and more magnificent than my queen."
Meng Yi immediately said: "Report to the village chief. This was designed by Mr., and Mr. is supervising it.
I asked my husband why it was decorated like this.
The teacher said that we cannot always use the style of the Qin Dynasty to design, as this would not reflect the high-end Ganluo.
Therefore, the decoration style of Tianxialaode is positioned with fashionable and innovative color styles, and is oriented by simplicity and lightness, and integrates design elements.
This is done to attract more diners.
Tianxia Laolao continues to upgrade its image in store space design.
From the outside, this store seems small, but when you get inside, you feel that the space is very large.
Everyone nodded, it was indeed the case, and they didn't know how Qin An came up with it.
Meng Yi continued: "Let's not talk about anything else, let's just talk about the service here. If you have any requirements, they will try their best to satisfy you."
"How to be satisfied?" Feng Quji became interested.
Meng Yi said: "Waiter, we are not comfortable sitting here. Do you have anyone here who knows how to massage?"
"Sir, we have some," the waiter said, "Which distinguished guest is feeling unwell?"
Meng Yi pointed at himself and said, "My shoulders have been a little sore in the past few days. Please help me press them."
"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter said and left.
Feng Quji said suspiciously: "A place to eat. Is there anyone who can give you a massage?"
Meng Yi nodded and said: "You get what you pay for. This is just the tip of the iceberg. However, please don't make excessive demands. They are shop assistants, not brothel girls."
"Tch." Everyone couldn't help snorting with their nostrils.
Soon, the waiter brought a man to Meng Yi and said, "Dear guest, this is the masseur we found for you."
Meng Yi nodded and said, "There is another person here whose birthday is today. I wonder if you can make arrangements?"
"Okay, I wonder which distinguished guest is celebrating his birthday?" the waiter asked.
"That's my brother." Meng Yi pointed at Meng Tian and said.
"Me?" Meng Tian pointed at himself in surprise.
Meng Yi winked at Meng Tian and said, "Brother, you must have stayed at the border for too long, so you have even forgotten your birthday."
"Yes, yes, we remembered, today is my birthday." Meng Tian received Meng Yi's message, so he admitted that it was his birthday today.
Ying Zheng and others knew that today was not Meng Tian's birthday, so they did not expose it.
"Wait a minute, today is also my birthday." Gan Luo said.
Everyone looked at Gan Luo and instantly understood what he meant.
Meng Yi smiled and said, "Yes, today is also his birthday."
