Tang Daqiang found the supply source of vegetables and meat. Liu Jin and Tang erqiang bought grain and various seasonings. Roche and Wang scrubbed the restaurant again and again.
Finally, on this day, everything is ready. I only owe the east wind, wait for a good weather, and then open in a red fire.
Mu Yu was looking for a suitable place for the carpenter's shop, and Liu Jin didn't let him take into account the restaurant. However, Mu Yu became the shopkeeper of receiving guests.
Early that morning, Liu Jin came to the restaurant from the temporary inn to make the final inventory. She is the chef. When she opens, she can't greet the guests in front.
At that time, the guests in the restaurant will have to be mu Yu and Tang Daqiang. Tang Daqiang is grounded and knows many third rate people, while Mu Yu is the eldest son of the Mu family who has to make friends with all the upper class people. The combination of the two is the best person to entertain guests.
For the time being, Tang erqiang worked as a waiter to help bring vegetables and water. He is rather dull by nature, so he is more suitable for this kind of work.
According to Liu Jin's idea, she will have to hire two boys and let Tang Daqiang be the shopkeeper. Mu Yu and Tang erqiang are expected to work together as carpenters, and the two families also take care of each other.
Mu Yu almost followed Liu Jin to the restaurant and began to prepare busily in front. Tang Daqiang and others are coming from the village. They don't arrive so early, but they are estimated to be soon.
They prepared for a while, and Roche, Wang and Tang Daqiang brothers came over.
"The auspicious hour is coming. I'll prepare to set off firecrackers." Tang Daqiang prepared, looked at the time, and hurriedly said.
Mu Yu heard the speech, nodded and went out.
Liu Jin, Luo Shi and others were also nervous and stood at the door of the store.
Most passers-by also see that this restaurant is about to open a new one. Whenever you are not busy, you will stop to see the excitement.
At this time, the sound of playing music sounded at the corner of the street, and a team of lion dancers came here with gongs and drums.
When passers-by saw the lion dance, they immediately became interested. More people stopped and watched the lively lion dance.
Liu Jin took a surprised look. She didn't spend money to invite a lion to dance.
Mu Yu stood aside and smiled calmly. He seemed to enjoy the lively atmosphere.
"Is that you?" Liu Jin asked in a low voice. Only the Mu Yu around him could hear it.
"Yes." Mu Yu's mouth sparked a smile, "anyway, it's also the first time to open a shop. We have to make a good noise."
This is the way Mu Yu expressed his support for Liu Jin.
Liu Jin was very useful and said with a smile, "next time you tell me earlier, I thought it was someone else's house."
Mu Yu didn't speak, but answered with a smile.
Firecrackers also lit at this time, crackling, very lively and festive.
Lion dancers also performed various acrobatics at the door of the store, which won the unanimous applause of the audience.
After the firecrackers were set off, Mu Yu said to the crowd, "Dear folks, today's shelter shop is open. Welcome to taste all kinds of dishes. Drinks are available free of charge."
When Mu Yu finished, he motioned Tang Daqiang to pull the red silk off the plaque.
When the red silk fell, the name of the restaurant was revealed.
"Shili fragrant restaurant."
"That's a good name."
"Ten li incense? It's too big. If I believe that the wine smells ten li, the meal smells ten li, that's ridiculous."
Onlookers saw it and said they were not credible.
"I don't know which big Cook made the food?"
"Hey, look at what you say. Isn't that the drunken fairy building that even the gods have to be drunk?"
"In short, you'll know whether it's good or bad if you go in and taste it. Anyway, the wine is free. Drink more wine and you won't lose."
Under the leadership of some people, many people also felt that it was good to drink for free, so they went inside to find a place to eat.
Some people, with a skeptical attitude, intend to wait for these people to talk before making a decision.
Anyway, the hotel is here and won't run. It's the same to taste it later.
More of the essence is the passing audience. When they see that the lion dance is over, they disperse one after another.
People in this county can't afford to eat in restaurants, but most still go home for dinner.
However, the Shilixiang hotel was still full of guests.
Some guests still put together. Fortunately, the table is large, and half of them will not hinder each other.
Liu Jin returns to the kitchen. Roche and Wang help prepare the ingredients while Liu Jin takes the spoon.
Because these guests came in together, Liu Jin was really in a hurry for a while.
Roche and Wang are even more flustered. Otherwise, Liu Jin has been directing and reminding them. I'm afraid they both can't keep up with Liu Jin's requirements.
When one dish after another came out of the pot, Tang erqiang took it and sent it to the guests at each table.
At first, the guests felt that the dishes were a little slow, but gradually, everyone sent one or two plates of dishes and ate them with relish, so they didn't care to wait a little longer.
Coupled with Tang Daqiang's greeting, everyone can get familiar soon, so there are not so many complaints.
Mu Yu stayed at the counter. No matter who asked for wine, he added it without any dissatisfaction. Most people don't know him, but they don't refuse to see him add wine, and they fill it every time. They also have a good impression of him.
Although there were only five tables, they came and went. Until lunch, Shilixiang welcomed no less than 30 guests.
Roche and Wang were so tired that they hammered their arms and legs and rested on one side.
Liu Jin cleaned up the kitchen and made sure that no guests came, so she was ready to take a break.
Everyone was not in the mood to eat and drink. After casually drinking some already cooked lean meat porridge, they sat and rested in the corner of the shop.
"I'm really tired today. I didn't expect the restaurant to be so busy on the first day. Girl Jin, you'll definitely make money in the future."
Wang praised.
Although she usually works all day at home, she has never been so nervous.
The more busy you are in a tense state, the easier it is to make people feel tired.
Roche also nodded, so busy, must have come a lot of guests.
"Yes, there are a lot of guests today. There are not enough tables. Many guests have to share tables with other guests." Tang erqiang is responsible for serving dishes. Every time he brings them to a table, he asks which guest it is.
This is also a matter of no choice. Who makes this restaurant smaller? Under Mu's arrangement, there are only five tables, so we can't make more space.
"That's a problem. However, Mr. Mu said that it's more spacious and the guests are comfortable. If you set up one or two more tables, I'm afraid the guests won't come even if they have a place."
Tang Daqiang said and looked at Mu Yu. In fact, in his opinion, there can be six tables here.
