After being exiled, relying on space to pamper the chief assistant

The waiter's eyes wandered around several people. Even though he was shocked for a moment by the looks of Ye Zhen and Xie Yunshu, the coarse linen clothes they wore were only worn by country people!

Since his exile, Xie Yunshu has been ridiculed like this, but he has already protected Ye Zhen and Zhao Yi.

His dark eyes stared intently at the waiter in front of him, and a chilling air emanated from him.

It felt like being stared at by a ferocious beast, and the waiter was so frightened that he took a few steps back.

"You...you still want to hit someone? Let me tell you, our Zuixian Tower is protected by someone!"

Looking at Xie Yunshu, who had an indifferent expression, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva nervously, and took a few steps back.

At this time, Ye Zhen pulled Xie Yunshu back and patted her pocket at the waiter.

The crisp sound comes out instantly and is full of weight.

"Who said we don't have money?"

With a slight hum, Ye Zhen looked at the waiter dissatisfied. Her original intention of taking her family to a restaurant suddenly dropped to a low point.

Xiao Ergou looked down upon others, and even Zhao Yi, who was behind the two of them, pursed his lips and looked unhappy.

Hearing the sound of copper coins, the waiter's expression changed.

He was just about to say a few nice words and welcome the person in, but he saw Ye Zhen pulling the other two people, turning around and walking towards the opposite side.

Opposite the Zuixian Tower, there is also a restaurant called Wangyue Tower.

There are also many guests in front of Wangyue Tower, and its floor space and decoration style are no worse than those of Zuixian Tower.

"It's still the number one restaurant in the city. Don't let it affect our mood for eating! Try another restaurant!"

Ye Zhen muttered and walked towards Wangyue Tower, Xie Yunshu and the other two did not refuse.

In contrast, the waiter at the door of Wangyue Tower was much more enthusiastic, and did not change because of the three people's clothes.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, the bustling crowd made several people a little unbearable, so they hurried up to the second floor to find a private room to sit down.

"What do you guys want to eat?"

The waiter had a smile on his face and enthusiastically introduced their store's signature dishes to a few people.

"Then let's have some of the signature dishes, right?"

Ye Zhen was so excited after hearing the waiter's introduction that she didn't know what to order, so she looked at Xie Yunshu for help.

Seeing her helpless look for the first time, Xie Yunshu felt a little funny, but his face was still tense.

Before he could make a decision, the waiter standing aside spoke.

"Madam, we have quite a few signature dishes. If you order them all, I'm afraid your family of three won't be able to eat them all."

Xie Yunshu also nodded, obviously agreeing with the waiter's words.

Now is not the time when they were in the Prime Minister's Mansion in Beijing. They have to live a careful and careful life.

Hearing what they said, Ye Zhen replied curiously:

“Can’t you take it away if you can’t finish it?”

"Pack?"

Not only Xie Yunshu, but also the waiter in the shop was confused by this word.

Well, it seems that this dynasty does not yet have the concept of packaging.

Silently taking back her words, Ye Zhen could only helplessly shake her head.

"Then let's serve four signature dishes, and choose the one with the best sales in your restaurant!"

Seeing that she had finally made a decision, the waiter nodded hurriedly and did not ask what the previous "package" meant.

Although this lady's words are a bit strange, her appearance is quite pleasing to the eye.

The waiter also specially gave them a small plate of cold dishes.

"I see, Wangyue Tower is a more suitable name for the No. 1 Restaurant than Zuixian Tower!"

After the waiter left, Ye Zhen spoke up.

Xie Yunshu was noncommittal, and the expression on his face was still light.

After the dishes were served, the family began the only formal meal of the day.

Xie Yunshu and Zhao Yi enjoyed their meal quite happily, but Ye Zhen tasted a few bites of each dish and then just finished the bowl of rice with a complicated expression.

She finally knew why the braised eel she made at random amazed everyone!

The level of cooking skills in this era is indeed not that good.

And it seems that this restaurant specializes in sweetness and lightness. It is not salty or bland, but for a modern person like her who has tasted all kinds of delicacies, it is really unappetizing!

"What's wrong? You don't even like to eat?"

Seeing Ye Zhen, she moved her chopsticks a few times and then stopped moving. Xie Yunshu beside her frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

Although the dishes in Wangyue Tower are not as good as the previous chefs in the Prime Minister's Mansion, they can still be regarded as above average.

Sensing a hint of concern in the other person's tone, Ye Zhen shook her head. She couldn't explain her feelings to a native.

"It's okay, let's pay."

After that, she called the waiter over and paid for the meal.

This meal was not expensive at all, costing fifty coins.

Today they set up a stall and earned 400 taels of silver. Although this is only 4 taels of silver, it is almost the monthly expenses of an ordinary family in Barbarian County.

"Little brother, I have something to ask you."

Seeing that the bill was settled, Ye Zhen quickly called the waiter.

"I see that your restaurant is well decorated and the food is good. How can you let the Zuixian restaurant across the street overwhelm you?"

The decoration is good, and everyone noticed it.

Just the doors of the two restaurants are different. Wangyue Tower is obviously newly built not long ago, and the red lacquer door is bright and bright.

As for the food, Ye Zhen judged it from the performance of Xie Yunshu and Zhao Yi. People who were once the legitimate sons of the Prime Minister could not fault it, so it was naturally not bad in this era.

Upon hearing this question, the waiter was stunned for a moment, and then he answered her doubts in a good-tempered manner.

"Our boss is from Jiangnan, and the chef he brings is also from Jiangnan. The dishes he makes are not so popular among the locals, so naturally it is not as famous as Zuixianlou."

So that’s it.

Ye Zhen nodded in understanding. If the taste was different, there was nothing we could do about it.

"But I still think Wangyue Tower is better than Zuixian Tower. I wish you can become the number one restaurant as soon as possible!"

She said this sincerely. Just looking at the service attitude, she wouldn't want to go to Zuixian Tower even once.

The waiter's eyes narrowed when he said this, and he quickly held up his hands and thanked:

"Then thank you madam for your kind words!"

Xie Yunshu's throat moved when he heard this conversation, but no sound came out.

After eating and drinking, the group returned to the city gate to meet Huang Chuan, got on the ox cart and returned to the village.

It was not too late at this time, and the sun was hanging in the sky, emitting heat.

After sitting down and setting off, Huang Chuan asked Ye Zhen curiously:

"Mrs. Xie, how is business today?"

Hearing this, Ye Zhen pursed her lips and was not in a hurry to answer the other party.

After taking a look at Xie Yunshu, who had a serious expression on his face, Huang Chuan thought their business was bleak, so he quickly offered words of comfort.

"Business is like this. It is always difficult at the beginning. I believe that with the two of you, you will see results soon."

He still remembers the taste of the bowl of eel soup in the morning. It was so delicious.

But he also knew the price. I'm afraid not many people would be willing to spend such a price to try it.

Just when Huang Chuan was about to give the two of them some advice, Ye Zhen spoke:

"All the eels and snails we brought today have been sold out!"

"It's okay, don't be discouraged. If you can't sell it, keep working hard tomorrow... What? They're all sold out?!"

Huang Chuan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Although he was also impressed by the taste of the braised eel, he could not have expected such results when setting up a stall for the first time.

He remembered that the other party brought a bucket full of snails! It weighed several dozen kilograms!

Ye Zhen couldn't help but feel happy when she saw his shocked expression.

“It’s not enough to sell, the spicy fried field snails are so popular!”

Starting from the first person who ordered the snails, the 50 kilograms of snails were sold out within an hour, and the following people had to order eels.

Although both dishes have good reviews, the snail is more suitable as a side dish with wine.

This is also the reason why Ye Zhen insists on setting up a stall next to the wine shop. She only has two dishes in hand, and it is difficult to sell them alone.

It just so happens that these snails and eels are very suitable for drinking, so why not just place them next to the wine shop, where people can't help but smell the fragrance.

Hearing this achievement, Huang Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and had to sigh:

"Mrs. Xie, you are such a wonderful woman!"

Although it's not nice to praise him in front of your husband, Huang Chuan really admires him.

When they got off the bus at the entrance of the village, Ye Zhen suddenly turned around and said to Huang Chuan:

"By the way, Brother Huang, please help me tell Aunt Huang when you get back and ask her to summon the people who delivered eels and snails to us yesterday to come to our house to collect their rewards."

After that, he took the two of them back home.

On the other side, Aunt Huang, after hearing the news brought by her nephew, repeatedly confirmed that it was not a lie, and happily led a group of women to the small bamboo house of Xie Yunshu's family.

By the time they knocked on the door, the sun had already set in the west, leaving only some sunset.

Seeing this, Ye Zhen welcomed everyone into the courtyard, while Xie Yunshu had already hid in the back room, as if he still wasn't used to being face to face with so many women.

As soon as everyone arrived, Ye Zhen took out the paper that Xie Yunshu had recorded before, took out her wallet and took out the revenge she had planned before the name information was distributed.

She collects eels and snails by the pound.

Eels cost five cents per catty, while snails cost two cents per catty. This was what she had in mind when setting the prices for the two dishes.

Of the nearly 100 kilograms harvested the day before, snails accounted for 70% to 80%, and the remainder were eels.

After all the rewards were distributed to everyone, Ye Zhen was left with only a few tens of cash in her pocket.

Basically, each family received dozens of coins, which made them happy and a little embarrassed at the same time.

"Mrs. Xie has been busy and has only earned so much. I feel really bad!"

"Yes, according to me, Mrs. Xie is just too polite! We don't even want these eels and snails!"

The women present were also kind-hearted people. When they saw how little Ye Zhen had left in her money bag, she had the idea of ​​returning it.

Of course Ye Zhen also heard it. While she was grateful, she said to everyone very firmly:

"Aunts, you all deserve this, don't feel uneasy! This also means that our road is feasible, and you can still send eels and snails here tomorrow."

Seeing her firm eyes, the women took the money and went back with peace of mind.

"If you ask me, this is indeed a good way. Isn't this equivalent to picking up money for nothing?"

After leaving the door, there were still people talking about this matter.

But almost everyone's face was beaming with joy, and they held the money distributed by Ye Zhen tightly in their hands.

"That's not true! I have to embroider four pairs of handkerchiefs to earn these twenty cents!"

"It's harmful! The harvest in the fields is not good now. We live a tight life every year. How can we make some money like we do now!"

Several people were talking and couldn't help but sigh!

Each of their families was exiled from the Central Plains, and the land they were assigned was naturally of very poor quality, and no one else wanted to take a look at it.

The harvest from the fields every day is just enough to pay taxes and make money? Don’t even think about it!
