On the way.
A group of warblers and swallows surrounded Fang Jingzhi, looking at the passersby with envy.
Which young master is this?
He brought so many girls with him.
Bah, scum.
So envious!
Li Kuier's best friend's identity is naturally not simple.
They are all ladies from noble families.
Along the way, these women surrounded Fang Jingzhi and chattered about him and Lan Caiwei.
Old girls!
I have only met her a few times, what could possibly happen?
Compared to Lan Caiwei, I hope to have a super friendship relationship with you!
Li Kuier, a die-hard fan of the dandy young master and the arrogant young lady, enthusiastically helped the young ladies answer their confusion.
But one Li Kui'er still can't satisfy so many young ladies.
"Brother Fang, how did you meet Sister Caiwei!"
"Brother Fang, is Sister Caiwei mean to you?"
"Brother Fang, what is Xia Yuhe by Daming Lake!"
These women come from the Wu Xun family, and the rules in the family are not that important. Today's Ming Dynasty is quite friendly to women, not as strict as it was later. Everyone talks to each other, not to mention how happy they are to eat melons. Urgent.
Fang Jingzhi made a sound, shook his clothes, and said calmly: "Actually, it's not that complicated. My father and Marquis Yongchang were once heroes on the battlefield. After all, I don't know how Marquis Yongchang found me, and he insisted on killing you. Sister Caiwei can’t marry me.”
Li Kui'er was also confused for a while while listening, why is this so different from her version of eating melon?
In the story of the arrogant lady and the dandy young master, could it be that their bad relationship started with their parents?
Fang Jingzhi continued to brag shamelessly.
"I am a scholar. I am dedicated to the imperial examination and serving the country. How can I be seduced by beauty!"
"But you sister Caiwei can't do that. She's obsessed with me."
"You bother me every day. Once you come and go, we will get along!"
"I think this is called love!"
Several women were so mesmerized that they ate melon.
"Oh, I'm so envious!"
"I didn't expect Sister Caiwei to reject so many people just to wait for Brother Fang!"
"So this is called love, I understand!"
Fang Jingzhi: "..."
I just realized that this is love.
Forgive me for not being very smart!
…
When opening a restaurant, location selection is naturally extremely important.
There are only a few lively places in Nanjing.
Qinhuai River, Confucius Temple, Xuanwu Lake...
Among them, Qinhuai River is one of the best choices.
Relying on the red industrial chain, Qinhuaihe has truly achieved one-stop service.
After eating and drinking, everyone went to touch two cards and bet on the big and small.
After making money, go next door to enjoy tea and flowers.
If you lose, just go home and sleep.
There is no better place to open a restaurant than here.
Lan Yu's new restaurant is located on the edge of the Qinhuai River, and the location is relatively remote.
There is a reason why the restaurant can open so quickly.
Originally, the owner of the restaurant had a difficult business and the food tasted bad. Naturally, not many customers were willing to come, and he suffered losses every day.
At this time, suddenly an enemy came over and expressed his willingness to buy the restaurant at the original price.
You say the boss is unhappy.
A contract was signed on the spot and the restaurant was transferred to the enemy, General Lan, at a low price.
General Lan silently sang a love offering to his boss.
The original decoration of the restaurant didn't need to be changed much. Someone was hired to make a batch of hot pots overnight. After a few veterans who called over got familiar with it, it was officially opened.
Because General Lan deliberately kept a low profile, he did not invite any dignitaries to the restaurant on the opening day. No one knew that this restaurant belonged to him.
Perhaps it's because the restaurant's business is not good, and the waiters inside are all weirdos, and those weirdos always have a hint of murderous intent in them.
Therefore, in the few days since the restaurant opened, business has been relatively bleak.
Fang Jing and the others chatted and laughed all the way, and soon strolled to the door of the restaurant.
Yuanyang Tower!
Three large gilded characters came into view.
Fang Jingzhi smiled and said: "Sisters, this is the place to eat hot pot. Once you get in, please don't be polite to me and eat with open stomachs."
Several young ladies clapped their hands excitedly: "Okay, okay, Brother Fang, you are so good!"
Fang Jingzhi responded with a smile: "Easy to say, easy to say, don't be polite!"
I have a gold card, and I get money from Sapphire.
Fang Jingzhi patted his chest.
Li Kuier asked in confusion: "Brother Fang, what kind of delicious food is this hot pot?"
Fang Jingzhi shook her head: "Of course it is something very delicious, otherwise I could invite you here. The taste can only be felt but cannot be described. It is a rare good meal in the world. If you eat it, you will not regret it. If you don't eat it, you will regret it for the rest of your life. !”
These words made several girls look forward to it even more.
After entering the restaurant, the girls realized something was wrong.
The shopkeeper who keeps accounts at the door is an old man with only one arm. The waiter in charge is an old man who walks with a limp. The old man who goes in and out of the kitchen is also missing arms and legs.
The boy who was waiting for several people in front of him was missing two ears and one eye. He tried hard to look flattering, but he looked awkward.
Even though the girls came from meritorious families, they had never seen such a terrifying person before. They were all frightened and hid behind Fang Jingzhi.
Fang Jingzhi patted one person and comforted another, with a smile on his face.
Yeah, yeah, these ancient times are so good, and the girls are so soft!
Oh, Brother Fang loves you so much!
While comforting the girls, he said to the old man: "Stand up straight, don't make such a damn look, don't lose the face of your general, and let you serve the guests to eat, that is to give them face!"
The old man with missing ears looked at him suspiciously: "Young Master, you, you know who we are!"
Fang Jingzhi nodded: "Of course, the idea of letting you come over was mine!"
The old man suddenly became excited: "You, you are the young master!!!"
Fang Jingzhi nodded, and then waved his hand to stop the old man from greeting others.
"I just came here to have a meal. When I have time, I will go to the Zhuangzi and let's have a few drinks. I have long wanted to chat with you and listen to your stories!"
The old man nodded repeatedly and kept talking.
Fang Jingzhi motioned to the old man and the girls behind him.
The old pawn said: "Master, please come upstairs. There is a private room upstairs. I will take you up right now!"
Fang Jingzhi nodded, and then said to the girls: "These people are all veterans who have come down from the battlefield. Many of them were soldiers under your father or grandfather. They are all good people. There is nothing to be afraid of!"
"Yes, yes!" The old man was quite excited when he heard this: "It turns out they are some young ladies from a handsome family. I have little eyesight. Please come upstairs and I will arrange food and drinks for you!"
Fang Jingzhi said with a smile: "Okay, just watch the arrangements. If you have something delicious, feel free to take it!"
Although he thought it would be recorded in Lan Yu's account, Fang Jingzhi actually saw the expressions of apologetic smiles on the faces of these old soldiers who were covered in scars and had not bent down even though life was so difficult.
I felt an inexplicable tingling pain in my heart.
Compared with them, I was a coward in my previous life!
Fang Jingzhi inexplicably thought of the cutest people in future generations.
After the war, a person returns to the place where he was born. He does not tell his fellow villagers what he has done, nor will he tell anyone that he has made a huge contribution to this country.
There is only one person who grows old silently and endures poverty silently.
But when they are sick, they have no choice but to use their most precious things... (I have been advised to delete this paragraph, so everyone can enjoy it for themselves!)
How heartbreaking.
He had seen many such endgames in his previous life.
Maybe the only thing I can do in reviving my life is to give them more support.
Let them know in this era that they are straight-backed and making money on their own, rather than begging for charity from others.
You should pay this money yourself.
Second floor, private room.
The young ladies sat on chairs and looked at Fang Jingzhi anxiously.
Fang Jingzhi whispered: "Don't be afraid. Although they look uglier, their hearts are the same as yours and mine."
A girl raised her head and asked timidly: "Brother Fang, are they really my father's soldiers, and how did they come here to open a restaurant?"
Fang Jingzhi nodded and sighed: "They are all a bunch of poor people, or a bunch of fools. They don't have the money or the brains to open a restaurant!"
"The old soldiers in Lanjiazhuang, who came down from the army and had no children, depended entirely on the care of Marquis Yongchang, but all of them had their backs straightened up, digging for food in the soil without even looking at it. My own arms and legs.”
"Some time ago, Marquis Yongchang had hot pot at my place. He saw that this recipe was simpler and more delicious, so he was interested in it."
"Instead of letting these old guys dig for food in the fields, why not open a restaurant and use the money earned to improve the lives of the old men in the village, so this restaurant was created!"
"I think these people are not only in the Lan family's village, but also in your various villages, there are probably many such veterans!"
When Li Kui'er heard this, she felt a little depressed, and then she said: "There are also people in my village, but my father doesn't have such thoughts as Marquis Yongchang. I didn't expect Marquis Yongchang, a seemingly rude person, to have such thoughts."
"Yes!" A young lady followed and said, "I have it in my village too. I will talk to my father later and ask him to learn from Yongchang Hou and open a restaurant for them!"
"From now on, we will eat at Yuanyanglou, not at Yuanyanglou!"
"Yes, I think so too!"
When the food and drinks were served, looking at the unique mandarin duck hot pot, the ladies stopped being sentimental and asked Fang Jingzhi how to eat the hot pot.
When the sauce was mixed, even Fang Jingzhi couldn't care less about it.
After all, they are ladies from the Xungui family, and they eat more generously than the other.
Drink heavily and eat meat.
Women will not give way to men!
