Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

Or you could say this is like walking into a sword with bare hands and catching a wolf with empty sleeves.

Liu Xuan took a deep breath and said casually: "Three of you, this is the rule of the Tang Dynasty Hotel."

"Once you enter this door, there are surprises everywhere. Are you willing to experience this surprise?"

"I think you have never encountered a business like this, let alone such a unique dish in the world."

Cheng Yaojin curled his lips: "This is very strange, haha, little shopkeeper, take it!"

Cheng Yaojin threw out a bag without saying a word, and it was full of copper coins.

After Liu Xuan took the money and left the main hall, Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Shimin and Wei Zheng with a smile: "Master, if this is not delicious, I won't say anything else. I have smashed many shops in recent years."

Li Shimin wrote on the table several times, and finally shook his head and sighed: "There is something about this writing style. It doesn't look like it was written by a young man. It seems... I have seen thousands of sails and experienced vicissitudes..."

"Let's wait for this young shopkeeper to see if this restaurant is worthy of the name of Datang Restaurant."

...

In the back kitchen, Liu Xuan looked at the stove in front of him that was covered with dust and rubbed his hands.

In the dark, it seemed that a pair of eyes were looking at him, calling him excitedly: Come on, show it.

"Aye, are we going to run away?"

Ya Ya entered the kitchen at some point, with a small bag on her back. Needless to say, it was the clothes she usually wore and a few cloth toys.

Liu Xuan was stunned for a moment: "Yaya, your running posture is too professional, isn't it?"

Yaya raised her little head: "Aye, we only cheated people for a dozen coins before, but today we have so much. If they come to our door, we have to run again."

Liu Xuan suddenly remembered that before he traveled through time, the original owner had no choice but to take Yaya and Dazhuang to cheat people for food money and was sued.

"Yaya, put the things back in the house, don't worry, this time is different!"

"Will there be delicious food later?"

"Of course there will be, when have I ever cheated you?"

Yaya's big eyes flickered twice, bit her lips, and trotted back to the house.

Liu Xuan took a deep breath and slowly took out the copper coins in the bag in front of him.

System panel, slowly opened.

The reason why Liu Xuan said that today's dishes are Mapo Tofu and Dongpo Pork is because when he looked at the system mall panel at that time, the ingredients of these two dishes were at the top.

He still understood hunger marketing. Liu Xuan planned to promote two dishes today and launch new products every few days.

"Tofu: 1 wen per jin."

"Pork: 5 wen per jin."

Tsk tsk, this price is really not low. One wen is equivalent to the purchasing power of several yuan in later generations.

Liu Xuan didn't know how tofu was sold in the Tang Dynasty. He only knew that in this era, many people made tofu that was relatively rough, without so many tricks in later generations.

Not to mention pork. In the Tang Dynasty, there were almost no serious families who ate pork.

People at the bottom would eat it occasionally, but most of them had a strong fishy smell. But they had no choice. It was good to have meat to eat. Why were they picky?

Since the system gave the price, the money should be spent.

First, I bought a jin of pork and two jin of tofu. The ingredients produced by the system were all top-notch ingredients.

It seemed that something disappeared in the purse in front of me.

Then, according to my needs, Liu Xuan began to buy auxiliary materials and ingredients one by one.

"Minced beef, bean paste, fermented black beans, salt, chicken powder, soy sauce, rice wine, minced garlic, appropriate amount of water starch, peanut oil..."

"Star anise, cinnamon, white cardamom, bay leaves, yellow gardenia."

"Yes, there are also rice wine, rock sugar, light soy sauce, fermented rice, ginger slices, dark soy sauce..."

Very quickly!

A large number of ingredients and seasonings were placed in front of Liu Xuan.

On the stove, a lot of copper coins in the bag have disappeared now.

"The system is really unambiguous in collecting money."

With a sigh, Liu Xuan took out the kitchen knife and put the tofu on the chopping board.

In an instant, the sound of dong dong dong began to sound.

Outside the door, Da Zhuang and Ya Ya were looking inside through the crack in the door.

Ya Ya covered her mouth: "Aye, can you cook?"

Da Zhuang also covered his mouth and shook his head repeatedly.

"Uncle Da Zhuang, what did you and Aye eat before?" Ya Ya asked curiously.

Da Zhuang seemed to be thinking about something, and fell into deep thought, tilting his head, but when he was thinking, his saliva suddenly flowed down.

In the front hall, Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojin were discussing what was the most delicious.

Wei Zheng had never been extravagant in his life. He was cautious and taciturn. Only when facing Li Shimin, he always spoke with deep persuasion.

High EQ means persuasion, low EQ means: too much control!

"Old Wei, you haven't eaten delicious food, have you?"

Wei Zheng blushed: "Don't indulge in the desire of the tongue, there was King Zhou of Shang in ancient times..."

Li Shimin felt a slight pain in his head. Every time Wei Zheng opened his mouth, he always felt that something was drilling into his forehead.

"Old Cheng, tell me, what is the most delicious thing you have eaten?"

Cheng Yaojin got excited when he talked about food.

"Hey, Master, the most delicious thing I've ever eaten was when I was in Wagang, stealing other people's chickens and roasting them!"

"Actually, I have chickens at home, but as the saying goes, domestic chickens are not as delicious as wild chickens!"

Wei Zheng turned his head and coughed twice.

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and looked elsewhere.

This guy always gives people some surprises.

"I...really, the best thing I've ever eaten before was when Yang Guang hosted a banquet for heroes all over the world in the previous dynasty. I also went there. The sheep, the mutton, one piece after another, dipped in dogwood juice and mustard, I wondered at that time, how the lamb meat was made."

When Li Shimin spoke, his larynx began to move, as if he would feel refreshed as long as he thought of that thing.

"The mutton fat is like white jade, and it tastes delicious..."

"Huh? Where is the little shopkeeper, the clerk, and the little girl?"

Li Shimin suddenly realized a problem. They paid for it.

Cheng Yaojin's face changed, as if he had thought of something, and he stood up immediately: "I'll go to the back to have a look. If they run away, I, Old Cheng, will dig three feet into the ground to find them! Skin them alive!"

Li Shimin glared at Cheng Yaojin: "Old Cheng, we are civilized people of the Tang Dynasty, people of status in Chang'an City, not bandits."

"Come on, follow me to have a look!"

Li Shimin stood up, then turned his head and glanced at Wei Zheng: "Old Wei, are you going?"

Wei Zheng hesitated and shook his head.

"Master, you go, I'll just wait here, if they come back, I'll call you."

In the kitchen, Liu Xuan let out a long breath, and the Mapo Tofu reached the final stage of high heat to collect the juice.

And the Dongpo Pork has now begun the slow-cooking stage, and it is estimated that after one stick of incense, the two dishes can be served.

Just then, Liu Xuan heard the rustling sound outside.
