Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

"Hey, little friend Liu Xuan, you're out!"

Li Yuan winked at Liu Xuan and sat on the chair: "Come on, let me introduce you to a capable person."

Liu Xuan smiled and looked at the elderly man sitting next to Li Yuan.

"Oh? Old man, this person should not be an ordinary person, right? The people who can sit next to you, old man, must be close friends, except for family members."

Li Yuan likes Liu Xuan like this. When he needs to be tough, he is really tough. When he needs to be gentle, he is really like a spring breeze.

"Oh, Liu Xuan, what you said is that I, Old Li, am approachable. How can it be so exaggerated."

"This is Lao Wu, a little old man like me."

"He used to do business, but he has been in poor health these years, so he gradually stopped doing it."

After hearing Li Yuan's introduction, Wu Shigui instantly understood one thing. The man in front of him, Liu Xuan, did not know Li Yuan's identity.

So he stood up and saluted Liu Xuan: "Manager Liu's cooking skills are unparalleled in the world. Today, Lao Wu can taste such delicious food. Even if I die, I will rest in peace."

Liu Xuan waved his hands repeatedly: "You're welcome, you're welcome."

Lao Wu, if nothing unexpected happens, considering his age, he should be Wu Shigui, right?

Who is Wu Shigui? If Datang is a company, Wu Shigui is the institution that invested in Datang when it was still a startup team.

It can't be considered an angel round, but it is definitely the earliest investor.

Liu Xuan remembered that when Li Yuan died, Wu Shigui heard the news and fell ill, and soon followed.

The relationship between Wu Shigui and Li Yuan is extraordinary. It is the relationship between Bole and Qianlima. If you go deeper, it is not an exaggeration to say that they support each other, share weal and woe, and are as close as brothers.

Li Yuan ascended the throne and the world was just settled. The first thing he did was to confer the title of Duke to Wu Shigui.

Looking at Wu Shigui's old face, Liu Xuan suddenly felt that those who started the business of Datang Group seemed to have worked too hard.

"Old Wu, you are too kind."

"Just come and visit me more often, bring your family and your daughter to taste my cooking skills."

You can bring your daughter, but not your son. After all, I know what kind of person your son is.

Your two daughters are now eleven and ten years old. Walk around when you have nothing to do. Don't be so stingy.

Wu Shigui was delighted when he heard this. Apart from other things, his two daughters were the ones he cared about the most, the apple of his eye.

When he heard about his daughters, Wu Shigui thought of Wu Shun and Xiao Wu, and he felt happy for a while.

"Of course, of course. Shopkeeper Liu's craftsmanship makes Wu want to bring his whole family to taste it."

Li Yuan rolled his eyes: "Old Wu, shut up first."

"Well, Liu Xuan, almost everyone has left now, hurry up, continue telling stories."

"Liangshan, this time I have to listen carefully to what Liangshan does."

The last time I heard the story of Liangshan, it seemed that I was not satisfied. This time Li Yuan wanted to go deeper.

"Old man, don't be impatient."

"This story has to start with a man named Song Jiang..."

As soon as Liu Xuan opened his mouth, a fragrant breeze blew over. When he turned around, he saw Changsun Ying sitting blankly on the other side, holding her head and looking at Liu Xuan. Her big eyes were bright and seemed to be waiting for Liu Xuan's story.

...

After noon, when they came out of the Tang Dynasty Hotel, Wu Shigui helped Li Yuan get on the carriage.

Li Yuan looked at Wu Shigui at this time and sighed: "Old Wu, do you know what this Liu Xuan is?"

Wu Shigui was stunned: "Liu Xuan? I seem to have heard this name somewhere."

Wu Shigui's time in court was relatively short, but he was very gossipy, and his mind was full of strange things in Chang'an every day.

Suddenly his eyes lit up: "I remember, it's him!"

"Marquis of Lantian!"

Li Yuan nodded: "Haha, Erlang does things, I don't interfere."

Li Yuan looked like I don't care, it's all young people's business, the key is that he can't interfere even if he wants to.

He was a little tough on the mouth, after all, he was once a respectable person.

"But this Liu Xuan, from a commoner, jumped to the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, and heard that he was promoted three levels in a row. This is extraordinary, and he must have something extraordinary."

Wu Shigui narrowed his eyes and thought in his heart.

Is there anything that Liu Xuan is not as good as ordinary people? When His Majesty bestowed the title, it seemed that he did not explain the reason. It was more like telling the ministers that this person would be the Marquis of Lantian in the Tang Dynasty from now on.

Wu Shigui suddenly realized that he had been a little negligent before.

He should pay a visit to the person who can make His Majesty value him.

Too careless.

Of course, if he knew that Liu Xuan was very low-key after being conferred the title of Marquis, he would be more curious.

In the restaurant, Chang Sunying refused to leave for a long time.

"Miss Chang Sun, what are you doing? It's noon, you should go home for dinner."

Chang Sunying was stunned and looked at Liu Xuan with resentment: "Manager Liu, I have eaten the delicious food of your Tang Dynasty Restaurant, how can you let me eat other things."

"I understand now, you used this method to seduce those diners, right?"

You are really smart.

Liu Xuan smiled: "What are you going to do with that girl?"

Chang Sunying stood there, with her hands on her waist. I, Chang Sunying, have never been inferior to others in my life.

What others can eat, I also want to eat.

I want to eat what others can't eat.

"I've made up my mind. I want to work at the Tang Dynasty Hotel. You are the Marquis of Lantian, and I am not ordinary. I will do odd jobs here and run waiters. You should provide meals, right?"

Liu Xuan was drinking water and almost spit it out.

It seems that Liu Xuan didn't know enough about the tolerance and openness of the Tang people before.

Chang Sunying was obviously serious.

"That won't work. Your family is so powerful. If they knew you were doing odd jobs here, they would smash my store, especially your father, who is a royal relative, and your brother."

"They dare!" Chang Sunying's eyes widened, "My brother was beaten by my father and couldn't get out of bed."

"I will definitely let my father continue to work. He will lie down for the next six months."

"As for my father, he will definitely not say anything as long as I want."

Chang Sunying's heart was excited. She felt relieved when she thought that she could eat Liu Xuan's food every day.

Liu Xuan, you don't want me to make your tricks public, do you? You don't want me to sue the authorities, do you?

Liu Xuan was speechless.

You are the daughter of a duke, and your status is extremely high.

In the Tang Dynasty, the gap between nobles and ordinary people is like that between Brahmins and Dalits.

We can't say that they are reproductively isolated, but at least they can't mix together, right?

You're making it very difficult for me.

"Okay." Liu Xuan grinned, "My family needs a night incense burner, do you want to try?"
