Traveling through ancient times, I married an ugly brother

On this day, it was just dawn, and the Shen family loaded all their belongings into the ox cart. The children had already been sent to the second uncle's house last night, and the rest of the staff walked towards the county town on foot.

When they arrived at the store, they opened the store door and moved all the things they brought from home to the kitchen one by one. After they were arranged, the family began to clean the tables, chairs and benches in the lobby.

There is a row of bamboo signs hanging behind the counter. From left to right, it says red bean milkshake is 50 yuan a cup, mung bean milkshake is 50 yuan a cup, watermelon milkshake is 50 yuan a cup, orange milkshake is 50 yuan a cup, and red bean ice porridge is 40 yuan. A bowl of mung bean porridge costs 40 renminbi, a cup of watermelon smoothie 20 renminbi, a cup of orange shaved ice, a plate of white glutinous rice cakes 20 renminbis, a plate of black glutinous rice cakes 30 renminbis, a bunch of fried glutinous rice balls 30 renminbis, cooked A bowl of glutinous rice balls costs 10 cents.

The auspicious time has not yet arrived, but the outside is already full of people.

"The door hasn't been opened yet, when will it be?" Someone asked helplessly.

"It's coming soon, it should be soon."

"I said, is this really the only shop in that market?"

"It should be right, the leaflet says it's the only time-honored brand."

"I think it should be true. Look at the food mentioned in the leaflet. I've never seen it before."

At this moment there was a commotion from the crowd.

"Hey, Boss Hao, I've looked up to you for a long time."

"Haha, Mr. Chen, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Didn't Boss Hao also hear about this unique talent and come to experience it?"

"Passing by, I saw so many people around here, so I was curious to take a look. Did Mr. Chen come here on purpose?"

"Hey, to tell you the truth, this is not Gouzi saying that this county is the only one to open a shop, and insisting on dragging me to join in the fun."

"It's open, the door is open." Someone shouted, drawing everyone's attention to the door of the exclusive restaurant.

The auspicious time had come, and Shen Changfu opened the door from the inside. He couldn't help being startled when he saw the crowds outside, but he was the most calm and didn't show it on his face. The plaque is hung with a red string of red cloth.

After Father Shen stood still, he said happily to everyone: "I announce that the exclusive restaurant is officially open." Both of them pulled the red rope in their hands vigorously, revealing the wooden signboard with four black Big words, exclusive restaurants.

Shen Changfu continued: "Today is the official opening day of the exclusive restaurant. Welcome friends old and new. Whether you are a new friend or an old friend, you will enjoy a [-]% discount when you enter the store today, and it is only for one day."

The surrounding crowd applauded and rushed towards the inside of the shop.

"Congratulations, the opening of the new store is auspicious." The person who came to congratulate him was none other than Chu Zhaolin, the owner of Haokelou. Carrying a big flower basket is being placed at the door of the store.

"Brother Chu, please be courteous, please come inside, please come inside." Shen Changjun was standing aside very low-key, but when he saw him hurriedly and enthusiastically led him into the lobby, he greeted him personally.

The village head, the head of the clan, and the elders of the clan also arrived, as well as the nearby neighbors of Shenjia Village, as well as people who heard Xin'er and wanted to join in the fun. Waited aside.

"Brother Chu, sit down first, I'll get you something to eat." Shen Changjun said.

"You don't need to be polite to me, brother, go do your own work, the guy has already gone to order." Chu Zhaolin said.

"Okay then, call me again if you need something."

After Shen Changjun left, Chu Zhaolin looked around the neatly decorated storefront, but didn't notice anything special, but stopped for a while when he glanced at the counter.

Because most of the ingredients are already prepared, they can be served to customers as long as they are finally synthesized, so they are all settled at the counter, pay and go, except for the glutinous rice balls, which need to wait for a while.

Those who order glutinous rice balls will not wait in place, but will receive a small bamboo sign with the words "boiled" or "fried" written on it. The word, the or boiled or fried glutinous rice balls delivered to the table of the guests.

Due to time constraints, only 100 such brands were made, and more will be added in the future.

This kind of business model was unheard of and unseen in the Jin Dynasty. Chu Zhaolin was very surprised to see it.

The second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law of the Shen family were standing in front of the counter to receive the cash, and the line was divided into two rows. The second sister-in-law Shen looked at the people scrambling to order her own food and smiled from ear to ear, and kept saying: "This guest officer , you ordered a red bean ice porridge, a mung bean milkshake, and two watermelon smoothies for a total of 130 cash. Today, our store offers a 104% discount, and you will be charged [-] cash. This store pays first and then eats."

"Okay, here you are, 104 texts."

"Okay, wait a moment, this guest officer, I'll take your meal right away."

After the initial stage of guiding customers to order at the counter, everything went smoothly.

There are also those new customers who don't know how to order at the counter, and sit on their seats and shout: "Man, man order", some kind people will tell them to go to the counter, and some will ignore them and let them go to the counter. Go and shout, but there are still more kind-hearted people.

Chu Zhaolin came early, and the servant who brought him quickly brought over the food. Except for the boiled and fried glutinous rice balls, which had to wait for a while, everything else was ready.

He looked at the things on the table, all of which he had never seen before. He first picked up a bamboo cup in front of him. It made his eyes widen even more, the coolness and sweetness drove away the heat in his body in an instant.

He couldn't wait to pick up another cup filled with food of different colors, but the taste inside was sweet and sour, first sour and then sweet, which was indescribably wonderful.

"What are these two things?" Chu Zhaolin asked, pointing to the two glasses he had drunk.

"Boss, you drank watermelon smoothie in the front, and orange smoothie in the back." A servant quickly replied.

Chu Zhaolin nodded, as if reminiscing, he pointed to a round and flat dumpling on the table and asked, "What about this?" I saw that besides being round and flat, there was white on top of the dumpling. The powder is contained in a plate, and there are four small balls of the same size in the plate, and there are two such plates. From the outside, the contents of the two plates are not much different.

"Boss, this plate is white glutinous rice cake, and the other plate is black glutinous rice cake."

Chu Zhaolin picked up one at random and took a bite. It was cool and sweet, fragrant and glutinous, and the filling inside could not be seen, but it was very fragrant. He took a bite from another plate. He took a bite, and the filling inside was black, with a completely different taste, he liked the black one better.

After tasting, he picked up another bamboo bowl, and before he could ask, the boy said by himself: "This is red bean smoothie, and the other bowl is mung bean smoothie."

Chu Zhaolin nodded. He picked up a spoon and took a sip. The taste was so delicious that he wished he could open his mouth ten times. "Brother Chu, are you satisfied with our signature food?" Shen Changjun walked away with a smile Come on.

Chu Zhaolin first signaled the two young men to put the food aside to enjoy themselves, then turned to Shen Changjun and said, "My dear brother, you are really a god, such a delicious food is really unforgettable for Chu." ah".

What Chu Zhaolin said was the truth. This food is not only delicious, but also very rare. Chu Zhaolin is determined to establish a good relationship with Shen Changjun, and maybe we can cooperate with each other in the future.

"Brother Chu has won the award, and my virtuous brother just likes to think about it when he has nothing to do. I didn't expect it to happen."

"My dear brother, why should you be overly modest? Don't you know that my dear brother has a lot of potential in you?"

Shen Changjun just smiled wryly and didn't say anything.

"Why? Brother, what's the secret?"

"Alas" Shen Changjun sighed and said, "Brother Chu is right, there is indeed a lot to do here, but you know my brother, our family is just a poor man, earning a little profit is enough to support the family, Don’t dare to think about anything else, let’s not hide it from Brother Chu, my virtuous brother will take the scientific examination in the coming year.”

Chu Zhaolin was silent for a moment, he took a serious look at Shen Changjun, his heart turned a thousand times, and after a while, he said: "If brother Shen Xian is trustworthy, why don't you and I work together to make this work, no one is needed?" My younger brother will come forward in person, and I will not hide it from my virtuous brother, although my brother is alone in this county, but there are noble people behind him to help, so it would be a pity that my virtuous brother does not make good use of such a good thing."

"Here," Shen Changjun also expected that there must be someone behind Chu Zhaolin. The first time we met, after Chu Zhaolin bought the only prescription, he never saw another buyer approach him, which proved Chu Zhaolin The people behind Lin are not simple, and it is not impossible to cooperate, but "Brother Chu, if Brother Chu really wants to do this business, the virtuous brother will naturally help him with all his strength, but the virtuous brother is really limited. I can only provide Brother Chu with a prescription, and Brother Chu needs to complete the rest by himself."

"Your brother, what did you say? How can you be a thing in the pool? Sooner or later, you will fly into the sky. Besides, for Chu, a prescription is enough."

"Brother Chu, I've won the award. In fact, if you want to say that it is difficult to make this thing, it is easy to say, but you have to look for one thing. I also came across it by accident, and then I made it."

"Something?,, what is it?"

Shen Changjun didn't answer, but just wrote two words "Saltpeter" on the table.

Seeing that Chu Zhaolin was still puzzled, he said, "How about this, Brother Chu, go to my house now, and you'll know at a glance."

"Okay, let's go, let's talk in detail after we get to your house."

After Shen Changjun said hello to his family, he got into Chu Zhaolin's carriage, but the moment he got into the carriage, Chu Zhaolin glanced in one direction, and then sat in. The coachman led the two of them towards Shen Drive in the direction of the village.
