I continued,
"If you want to reflect the way we Liang people treat others, we must be generous!"
"Then the fish on the table is fine if it doesn't grow. If it does, I suggest it be at least a three-foot-long fish!"
"That means you have to have at least a 20-pound big fish, a big fat-headed fish!"
“Let this fish occupy the centerpiece of the entire table.
Only by exceeding your imagination can you win unexpectedly. "
Meihua listened to this suggestion and said,
"It's a good idea, but when we cook such a big fish, we don't have such a big pot of fish on the stove, and we don't have such a big dinner plate to serve it on the table! It weighs more than 20 pounds, and it needs to be so long!"
Meihua gestured with her hands to both sides in front of her tall chest.
My chest trembled.
The chef stood up, as was his habit as he seemed to stand up in a hurry.
The chef said,
"This is easy to handle. Since your chef is knowledgeable, I agree with you."
"Leave it to me to cook such a big fish. It's easy! I'll cook it in two pots! Don't worry!"
As soon as I saw it, it would be easy to solve the problem if the master dared to take orders.
"Since Master Wang has a way, I'll do the processing for you!"
Chef Wang Qiang raised his hand in salute.
"You two don't have to worry about it, just leave it to me! I have someone who will do it!"
I thought it was okay at first glance. After all, he is a senior chef. He has worked in a restaurant as big as Xiangshantang for so many years and has seen all kinds of scenes, so he must be given room to show off.
As for the rest of the menu, I basically didn’t touch it, just to save face for the great chef!
The next step is to arrange the service work before and after meals, as well as the environmental sanitation in front and behind the Xiangshan Hall.
There is also a gift planned for Renfengjun’s guests after the meal, which is the special food of Xiangshantang.
This is a new service item that Xiangshantang has added since it stopped serving services on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. It turns out that eating thousands of servings of staple and non-staple food twice a month is a huge expense, not only a waste of manpower and financial resources, but also takes up a lot of work energy from the chefs.
Now it's great. As a casual gift to guests dining at Xiangshan Hall, it is also a kind of etiquette.
Although there are many guests who come to Xiangshantang to dine, compared with the expenditure of thousands of staple and non-staple food every month, it still saves a lot.
He Xiang affirmed what Mei Hua and I did.
However, He Xiang also specifically emphasized,
"Every time you see the adults who have stopped serving non-staple food, you Meihua must do a good job of explaining. Don't let people misunderstand our prime minister's house. You must understand the difficulties of your prime minister's house."
"At the same time, I can also tell everyone in a tactful way that the expenditures used for the protection in the past came from my own pocket, He Xuan."
What He Xiang meant was that he had gained He Xiang's love from me for so many years in vain.
Of course He Xiang couldn't say this so straightforwardly.
However, from the words that Meihua conveyed to He Xiang, I felt that He Xiang's way of dealing with others was indeed superior, but it was not easy either.
Think about it, since he is a businessman himself, he should consider it more directly and more economically when it comes to profit trade-offs.
If we calculate the time, He Xiang has been in this position in the court for at least 20 years.
Over the years and months, a lot of expenditures have accumulated.
However, it has not wavered in its original intention of using profit export to win the confidence and support of everyone. This pattern is really admirable.
It’s time to light the lamp again.
A group of eight guests entered from the lobby, walked left and then right through the passage where non-staple food used to be, and then went up to the second floor to reach the personalized restaurant area.
Each restaurant has an engraved sign that hangs prominently on the door of the restaurant, which is also the private room.
The name of the room prepared for Mr. Chunfeng is Yangchunquan. Not to mention, the word "chun" in the name of the private room coincides with the word "accidental encounter" in Mr. Renfeng's official title. It seems to be a deliberate arrangement.
So before entering the house, Mr. Chunfeng specially looked at the word "spring" on the card, turned around and nodded attentively to the plum blossoms.
Meihua and I greeted the guests into the private room with smiles on our faces.
It can be seen that Mr. Chunfeng is very familiar with the guests. As soon as they enter the door, he signals for the food to be served!
The two slaves began to drink wine indoors.
I glanced at Chunfeng Junrenchen,
This man looks really talented.
Big eyes, a high nose bridge, a slender mustache, roots under his feet, and a particularly steady walk.
Worthy of being Mrs. Renxian’s younger brother, every move shows the nobility of a wealthy family.
I still admire Queen Mother Renxian's family from the bottom of my heart. After all, the Ren family of the Mo family has really paid a lot for this country to grow from small to large, from weak to strong to what it is today.
Although the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother Renxian had more or less romantic affairs of one kind or another.
But I still understand.
Because in the Jin Dynasty, women's status was extremely humble.
A man can marry a wife with three, four or even five bedrooms.
But women cannot have three, four or even five men at the same time.
This kind of male superiority and female inferiority, and gender inequality, has created a distorted mentality for women who are equally capable, thoughtful, capable, and courageous. What men can do, I am better than they can do.
So once these people have a platform, they have the opportunity to assert themselves and gain power.
They will fully release themselves and their desires. In addition to their desire for power and money, their physical desires must also be fully satisfied.
This should be the simplest and most direct expression of human nature.
In reality, I often encounter issues such as raising a mistress, an official having several lovers at the same time, etc.
When I think about it, although the dynasties are different, the principles are the same.
The true nature of human nature has not changed much.
In short, in the face of desire and driven by power, human nature will expose selfish desires infinitely, be greedy for selfish desires, and finally be burned by selfish desires. The final outcome of this kind of people is nothing more than this
…
After I settled the previous service matters, I was ready to go back to the dormitory to take a rest.
Even if it’s just a drink of water.
Because since the Chinese New Year, I really feel homesick. I always want to go back to my dynasty and go home to see my parents.
But there is no way, no channel, and no idea when he will be able to go back. The task of finding someone has not been completed yet, and the person I want to find is nowhere to be found. well!
Somewhere in the dark, it seemed that someone had said in his ear,
Said, "You can only complete your time-travel mission if you meet a sword-wielding boy who is 30 years younger than you."
"30 years younger than me?"
I am just 28 years old now, which means that this child has not yet been born!
Alas, what a joke!
It’s just a dream talk!
Still, I'm looking forward to it.
After all, he still has no way to return to his past era.
At this time, I just turned into the dormitory corridor,
The voice of plum blossoms behind me stopped me,
"Half way, you, please stop for a moment!"
By the candlelight in the corridor, I
I saw a fat, red face.
Mei Hua stepped forward, grabbed my arm, and said danglingly,
"Just now, just now, Chunfeng-kun let me into the restaurant and asked me to serve the guests a few glasses of wine on his behalf!"
Mei Hua felt that I didn’t understand, so Mei Hua said,
"A few cups means a few bowls!"
