Xiao Mu and Ye Luoxin came out to replace Xiao Song after dinner. Xiao Song told them that he had sold another rabbit just now.
"I see, we don't have to worry about selling this rabbit!" Xiao Song looked excited.
Ye Luoxin also looked at each other and smiled, the days of big sales are still to come!
Inside the Star Reaching Building.
The county magistrate took the master, the county magistrate and four detectives to eat in a private room.
Several people were a little frightened.
Who in the yamen doesn't know that the county magistrate is the most stingy, no, the most thrifty.
In the past, when we went out on business, adults would only treat them to plain noodles.
Today's pomp is really a bit grand.
"My lord, this subordinate is stupid. I really don't remember what a special day today is. Your lord invites us to dinner, but what do you have to explain? Please tell me clearly!" Master Lu asked carefully.
"Why, I have to find a reason to invite you to dinner?" Magistrate Liu looked worried.
"No, no, I understand. Your Majesty is just caring for your subordinates." Master Lu said quickly.
"If you know, just eat quickly, there are so many words."
Master Lu quickly picked up the chopsticks and lowered his head to pick the food in front of him.
When the others saw that Master was so exhausted, they didn't dare to say anything, and they all just kept their heads down while eating.
Halfway through the dishes, Li Yongshou, the shopkeeper of Zhaixinglou, walked in and personally served the braised rabbit meat that the magistrate ordered.
"Sir, do you think the food in our restaurant is to your liking?" Li Yongshou asked carefully.
"It's acceptable." Magistrate Liu said concisely and to the point.
He put a piece of rabbit meat into his mouth, chewed it slowly twice, and asked, "Is this made in your store?"
Li Yongshou couldn't see any emotion on the elder's face, and he didn't know whether the county magistrate was satisfied or dissatisfied.
I had no choice but to tell the truth: "I didn't buy a live rabbit today. I just asked the guy to buy this from Xinyue Zhai outside.
If you don't think it's okay, may I change it to our store's signature braised pork knuckle? "
Liu Mian didn't answer, closed his eyes and continued to taste the meat in his mouth: "Thin but not heavy, fresh and sweet, a good dish!"
After hearing this, several of the men picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it into their mouths. Before the taste could be tasted, they agreed: "It's delicious, it's delicious. It can be rated as the best dish today."
Li Yongshou really didn't dare to compliment the way several people flattered them.
At the same time, he didn’t believe what they said,
The chef of Zhaixinglou was hired from the original Xu Ji, and he is almost the best braised pork chef in Qinghe County.
How could this little Xinyue Zhai taste better than what he made?
When Liu Mian saw Li Yongshou still standing there, he picked up a piece of rabbit meat and handed it to him: "Shopkeeper Li is very knowledgeable. Please give me your evaluation."
Li Yongshou was flattered that the county magistrate actually gave him food? What good luck is this?
He quickly took the rabbit meat.
He wanted to follow the words of a few people and praise it, but after he actually tasted it, his eyes widened!
It turns out that what they just said was true. This braised rabbit meat indeed tastes extraordinary!
"How is it?" asked the county magistrate.
"It's delicious! It's delicious!" Li Yongshou replied.
Liu Mian: "It's delicious. I think it's delicious too. This is probably the best braised pork I've ever eaten."

Liu Mian felt that he had come to the right place today.
When Xiao Mu came to see him yesterday, he wanted to refuse.
As the magistrate of Qinghe County, how could he agree to do such a thing!
However, when Xiao Mu came up with his trump card - the golden melon seed he had spent at the teahouse, Liu Mian had no choice but to agree.
Those were his most precious golden melon seeds, and missing one would be like killing him.
That day, soon after he returned home, he asked the housekeeper to go to the teahouse to ask, but the shopkeeper said that the golden melon seed had been replaced by someone else.
Because of this incident, he regretted it for almost two months.
He never expected that this thing would be in Xiao Mu's hands.
"My lord, there is no need to be embarrassed. I just want you to go to Zhaixing Tower for a meal. If you agree, this golden melon seed will be your meal money. I will give it to you."
Xiao Mu looked confident, as if he knew Liu Mian would not refuse.
Liu Mian felt that he was really blind before. How could he think that Xiao Mu was honest and ignorant?
This is a glutinous rice ball filled with black sesame seeds!
He had no choice but to agree.
At most, he was just saying out of conscience that his braised rabbit was delicious, and it wasn't a big deal.
Unexpectedly, this stuff is really delicious!
"What do you think, Shopkeeper Li, is better than your braised pork knuckle?" he asked again.
Li Yongshou hurriedly said: "Compared with my braised pork, it has more fragrance and less greasiness. It is really a rare delicacy."
Liu Mian nodded when he heard this.
An hour later, several gentlemen from the county government left the Zhaixing Tower with satisfaction.
News that the county magistrate praised Xinyue Zhai also spread like wildfire.
Those who were curious took a detour to the store to buy a braised rabbit.
They wanted to see what the braised rabbit that the county magistrate praised looked like.
Before the deadline, all 20 braised rabbits in the store were sold out.
The six braised rabbits that Ye Luoxin made later were also finished.
She asked Xu Zhengxiang and Yang Feng to go home first, while she and Xiao Mu were going to deliver two rabbits to the county magistrate's house.
"Yes, yes, the county magistrate has helped us so much!" Xu Zhengxiang said quickly.
Ye Luoxin was noncommittal. She took out a small cloth bag from the box. Xiao Mu carried two boxes of braised rabbit meat, and they went out to the magistrate's house together.
The magistrate's house is right behind the county government office.
The two were familiar with each other, so they knocked on the back door, and the housekeeper brought them to the magistrate's wife.
The county magistrate's wife's surname was Yuan, which Ye Luoxin found out later.
"Madam, this is the braised rabbit meat we just made. The new store opened today. The two of us specially sent it to Madam to congratulate her."
Ye Luoxin sent a food box.
Mrs. Yuan quickly took it and said, "Hui Ruren is so polite. I should have gone to congratulate Hui Ruren for being granted the title, so why am I so embarrassed to let you bring gifts?"
Although the county magistrate's wife was friendly, Ye Luoxin also clearly felt that this time they met, the county magistrate's wife was much more polite than the last time.
She said: "Madam, you don't have to be polite! I was granted the title because of the help of the county magistrate. Speaking of which, we have to thank you!"
"No matter where you are, don't be polite, come in quickly!"
Mrs. Yuan asked the two of them to go into the house to drink tea, but Xiao Mu declined due to the inconvenience of being a man.
So, Xiao Mu stayed in the yard, and only Ye Luoxin followed Mrs. Yuan into the house.
"I heard from my master yesterday that I am going to cheer you up today. He is used to being very arrogant and won't say anything nice. He didn't cause any trouble for you, did he?"
Mrs. Yuan said it very politely.
Ye Luoxin's face was full of smiles: "Thanks to you, sir, my braised rabbits are selling very well today!
By the way, in addition to rabbit meat, I also brought some gadgets for Madam! "
Ye Luoxin said, taking out two small white purses from the bag she carried with her.
