For such a large restaurant, the dishes are so complex in taste that they can even cook them without a cook.
It was indeed beyond Emperor Jing's imagination.
Seeing Emperor Jing's surprised look, Fang Zheng explained: "Your Majesty, this is far from being as simple as imagined."
"Actually, your best choice is to ask the prince in person. From the beginning to the present, the restaurant has been popular in the market. He has been in charge of it personally. I don't know many details. I suggest you go to the area near the restaurant and take a look."
"Your Majesty, there are too many people near the restaurant. Although there are many guards accompanying them, they are too crowded... I am worried that there will be trouble."
Before Emperor Jing could say anything, Guo Tianyang became anxious.
He knew the virtues of a nibbling chicken. The spies from the East Factory below said that even if he bought something, he would be squeezed in there and unable to move.
It's not that I'm afraid that someone will assassinate His Majesty, there is no doubt about the safety of the capital.
But if you're afraid of that blind thing taking the initiative to collide with you, you're going to die.
Fang Zheng said together: "Your Majesty, what Eunuch Guo said is indeed true. It is a bit unsafe there. In addition, your dragon face is printed on the banknotes. Although not many people have a hundred taels of banknotes, it is still possible to be If you recognize it, it would be bad if it causes a disturbance.”
"How about we find a restaurant a little further away, and then I can find the prince here. What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Jing nodded and said, "That's very good, so let's do it."
...
With a safe plan in mind, Fang Zhengyi immediately arranged for Jin Yiwei to secretly accompany Emperor Jing and others to the prince's location.
I sat down in a restaurant about two to three hundred meters away on the same street as the chicken.
Looking out the window, you can still see many people queuing up to buy fast food.
It was blocked below.
What is even more embarrassing is that from time to time, loud shouts can be heard one after another.
"Encounter in Taoyuan, enjoy the delicious food!"
As soon as Fang Zheng went to call someone, Emperor Jing sat alone with his face numb.
The world is broken!
It was shameful enough to hear this slogan in the palace yesterday, but now I have a whole new experience.
How can people be so shameless!
While waiting, the restaurant manager eagerly brought several plates of side dishes to Emperor Jing's table.
Emperor Jing glanced at him: "I...I haven't ordered yet."
The restaurant owner's smile became even brighter: "Dear guest, these are all side dishes for free. All guests who dine at the store will receive these side dishes for free."
"And I think you have a very kind face... You look like the God of Wealth!"
He really wasn't lying.
The first time I met Emperor Jing, the shopkeeper felt extremely familiar. After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that he looked like the emperor printed on the banknotes of Jingxing Bank.
But it was too scary to directly say that he looked like an emperor... so he turned around and said "God of Wealth".
God of Wealth?
Emperor Jing laughed dumbly.
This was the first time someone described him like this.
Emperor Jing looked down again and said calmly: "Shopkeeper, it's hard to do business now."
The shopkeeper's face fell: "Master, you are a discerning person. I won't hide it from you. The restaurant across the street from downstairs has robbed me of a lot of business... Sigh."
"Actually, I'm telling you, there's something wrong with the chicken at the restaurant across the street!" the shopkeeper said with a sly look, "His restaurant is not a serious restaurant. Look at the decoration of the house. It doesn't look like a serious place to eat. And this restaurant The name...is called Gnawing Chicken, how vulgar!”
"It's not as grand as our restaurant. The name was given by a scholar who paid a lot of money for it."
"Oh? What's your name? I didn't pay attention when I came." Emperor Jing asked with a smile.
"Jun Shuang Restaurant!" the shopkeeper proudly puffed out his chest, then his face fell again and he started to complain about the chicken he was chewing.
He whispered mysteriously: "You think the other side is very popular, right? But let me tell you, his food is not clean! Recently, many people have been so hungry that they are running around in the street! ... And they didn't A few dishes, unlike our famous chef, who has dozens of dishes to choose from!"
"They are busy now, and they will get into trouble sooner or later... Humph!"
The shopkeeper got excited and began to chatter endlessly. Emperor Jing didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Fortunately, the success of the prince's business was unexpected, and it began to arouse the hatred of his colleagues. If he is not jealous, he is a mediocre person.
What's worrying is that for the first time he started business in person, he was competing with the public for profit, forcing other restaurants to have no way to survive. It was really unpleasant to spread the news.
Just when the shopkeeper was complaining, Fang Zhengyi led Li Yuanzhao up to the second floor.
Li Yuanzhao also held a few hamburgers in his hand.
Sitting in front of Emperor Jing, he glanced at the shopkeeper who was staring at him eagerly, and then said cheerfully: "Dad, the burgers you just made are still warm. Try it!"
The shopkeeper's expression instantly turned to ice.
Hamburger! ?
It turns out you also...
He gave Emperor Jing a hard look and took away the free side dishes...
Emperor Jing didn't take it seriously, picked up the burger and took two bites.
My eyes suddenly lit up!
It tastes so much better when it's hot than when it was cold yesterday.
As soon as you bite it, the juice spreads in your mouth, especially the sauce which is extremely fragrant.
Seeing Li Yuanzhao's expression as if he was asking for credit, Emperor Jing's expression returned to calmness.
He said in a deep voice: "Li Yuanzhao, without my permission, privately opened a restaurant to compete with the people for profit! Is this a good thing you did?"
"You've almost overwhelmed all the restaurants around here, right? Don't forget who you are!"
Sure enough, my father can’t hold back his fart!
Li Yuanzhao curled his lips: "Falled? Erchen, this is an upright market competition! If they collapse, it's because they have no ability and are not worthy of opening a restaurant!"
"Father, you don't even know how vicious the merchants on this street are. Seeing that my business is good, they find someone to throw shit into the back kitchen of my restaurant at night, throw shit! Is this what humans do?"
Emperor Jing's throat suddenly tightened!
His horrified eyes moved to the burger.
What the hell? Was this thing made in a shitty kitchen?
Fang Zhengyi also swallowed.
He didn't know about this either.
Sure enough, business competition is dangerous, and the most high-end business wars only use the simplest methods...
"But don't be afraid, our kitchen is clean! I have been familiar with the art of war since I was a child, how can I let them succeed?" Li Yuanzhao said proudly, "A wise king and a wise general can defeat others by moving. Success comes from the crowd, and the prophet also."
"Three days after the opening, Erchen expected that some colleagues would attack the restaurant, so he sent people to various restaurants in advance to investigate, and set up defenses in the back kitchen at night! This way they failed to succeed."
Emperor Jing breathed a sigh of relief immediately.
Good guy...in order to sell some food, I have used all kinds of tactics...
"Besides, I don't think this is about benefiting the people? As soon as our restaurant opened, the prices of restaurants in the whole street have been reduced. How many people have benefited from me? This is a good thing." Li Yuanzhao said angrily, "When I came here, On the way, I heard from Lao Fang that my father thought it was inappropriate for him to do this, right?"
"But I dare to say something right now, my business in the restaurant today is a contribution to the present and will benefit the future!"
