Go back to ancient times to engage in sideline business

"Why should we have to leave when they can sit on a stool and wait?"

"That's right! Do you look down on us coming from other places and bully foreigners?"

"Oh, how dare I mean that? I was worried that you would come late and wait for a long time. By then, the kitchen would run out of food. Wouldn't it be a waste of time to wait? That's why I said something extra, telling you to go back, I clearly Think about you again!"

Shopkeeper Liu spoke so earnestly that he was frothy, but the men couldn't listen to what they said.

"My God! I swear to God, I don't mean to look down on you!"

Two tables of guests paid the bill, but shopkeeper Liu was nowhere to be seen at the counter. Tang Zhong searched all the way, and seeing the scolding crowd at the door, he hurried over.

Several men were yelling and cursing, but he quickly understood, and immediately pulled shopkeeper Liu behind him.

"Everyone listen to me, the coupons are not limited to tonight, they can be used at any time. No matter when you want to come to Fuxing Restaurant to dine, we sincerely welcome you!"

When he said this, the anger of the men immediately subsided. Although they were still noisy, they only complained about Shopkeeper Liu's bad attitude and expressed that they did not want to see him again in the future.

"How can I have a bad attitude?" Shopkeeper Liu asked the sky speechlessly while hiding behind Tang Zhong.

After grinding their lips, they turned around and left.Tang Zhong said, "Wait a moment", and rushed back to the shop like flying, and rushed out again soon, chasing after and stuffing the oranges in his hands into their hands one by one.

"It's all our fault. I didn't expect so many guests to come today, and I didn't make preparations in advance. I'm really sorry to let a few of you come here for nothing! Take the oranges and quench your thirst on the way. Next time you come, you must treat them well. VIP!"

The men originally complained about the crowds in the queue and were worried that the coupons would not be used, but when shopkeeper Liu advised them to leave, they were out of breath and quarreled in desperation.

Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, seeing that Tang Zhong is respectfully apologizing and giving fruit to eat, he feels rather embarrassed.

Tang Zhong deeply practices the concept of customer first for later generations. It doesn't matter what temper he usually has. As long as there are customers present, he must be gentle, thoughtful and polite.Just kidding, who would have trouble with their parents?

After sending them all the way to the intersection of Baima Street and Qingniu Street, Tang Zhongcai turned back. As soon as he entered the store, he felt a burning gaze hit his face. He turned his head to look at the old face of shopkeeper Liu who was full of reverence. .

"It's incredible! How do you know what they really think in their hearts? Could it be that you can read minds?"

Tang Zhong glanced at the guests who were still waiting to be seated on both sides, and slapped the shopkeeper Liu's shoulder resentfully.

"Mind reading is another matter first, you go and get some snacks to eat first, hurry up!"

People in this era are also fashionable to eat melon seeds, but they are not sunflower seeds, but the more common pumpkin seeds.The snack that shopkeeper Liu brought from the back kitchen was a large bag of fried pumpkin seeds.

Tang Zhong took it, walked to the door with melon seeds, and grabbed a handful for each of the guests who were still insisting on waiting in line.

Suddenly someone patted him behind him, Tang Zhong turned his head to look, and it turned out that it was the two wealthy young men at the first table.

"Is there anything I can do for you two?"

The two looked at each other and laughed. Although the guy in front of him was thin and thin, he was quite clever and pleasing, and he was good at greeting guests.

"We're done eating, and we're going back to our residence. Fortunately, the two of us came early, otherwise, at this moment, I'm afraid we could just sit and eat melon seeds obediently." The purple-shirted man looked in a good mood, and he no longer looked awkward when he first entered the store.

Tang Zhong grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to him, "It's not bad to eat melon seeds now, just grind your teeth after a meal."

"I don't grind, you can give it all to him." The yew man pointed to the man in the blue shirt behind him with his eyes, "He is just a snacker."

The man in the green shirt glanced back speechlessly, waved his hand and said: I can't eat anymore.

Tang Zhong put down the melon seeds and started a post-dinner satisfaction survey by the way: "Excuse me, how did the two guests eat? Are you satisfied with the dishes?"

This time it was still the man from Yew Shan who answered first: "I don't know Mr. Yang next to him, but the food in your restaurant is quite to my liking. Every time I pass by Qingjiang County in the past, I always eat at Dayimen where I stayed. Although the dishes here are not as ostentatious as Dayimen's, they are fresh and natural, and they have a different taste. But Mr. Yang, he has always been stingy, so I don't know which dish's price suits his taste."

The man in the green shirt couldn't hold back, he tugged at his sleeve and turned his head and muttered in a low voice: "Didn't you say you're finally angry?"

Seeing Tang Zhong staring at him, the man in the green shirt pretended to be calm and coughed a few times, and said loudly: "It's quite cheap, but the food is also good. Brother An Bo, this meal cost 280 seven coins, but I invited it of!"

"I didn't eat that much, and I don't know who is greedy, but I want to drink the peach blossoms in the town store to get drunk!"

After the Yew man finished speaking, he nodded to Tang Zhong, and flung his sleeves out the door.The man in the blue shirt hurriedly chased him out without saying a word, and it sounded like he had another explanation.

Tang Zhong stood at the door with a smile all the time, watched the two go away, stepped over the threshold, and was caught by shopkeeper Liu to the counter again.

"280 Qiwen!" Shopkeeper Liu's face was like a rotten wood, and he was about to burst into laughter.

He grabbed the abacus in his hand, tried to suppress his excitement, put his hand on Tang Zhong's ear and whispered: "A table of valuable dishes, and two bottles of old peach blossom drunk! Those are passed down from my grandfather. The wine that has never been sold! If there is no change and no coupons, it will be 410 Liuwen, a small half of the penny! It has been open for so long, and it is the first time to meet such a big-spending customer!"

Where is this?Tang Zhong gave a thumbs up perfunctorily, and gave polite encouragement to the middle-aged man who was trembling in front of him: "Okay, that's awesome, come on!"

It was not until Xushi was approaching, when the east and west gates were about to close, and when the curfew in Qingjiang County was about to be curfew, that Fuxing Restaurant sent away the last table of guests.

The six clerks and Tang Zhong, the waiter, were already on their feet, and the cook, who had been busy in the back kitchen, couldn't even lift his arms.The three of them each found a bench and lay down on their backs, all staring eagerly at the counter.

At this moment, it was finally Liu's turn to show his business ability.I saw him flipping through the ledger with his left hand, and flipping the abacus with his right hand, bowing left and right, his eyes scanning back and forth on the numbers in the ledger.

After waiting anxiously for a while, shopkeeper Liu closed the ledger, smoothed his beard again, and solemnly announced in a low voice: "Excluding the vegetable money and firewood expenses, we have made a total of 270 yuan this time!"

There are only two city gates in Qingjiang County, east and west. The city wall is bounded by Qingniu Street running from north to south, and the two city gate guards are in charge of half each.

Sprinkling insect repellent powder along the city wall was a temporary job assigned by the magistrate Lin on a whim, and it was not an easy task at all.

Walking half a circle around the city, and then a half circle around the outside of the city, it took the two gate guards a whole afternoon to complete this errand.

Even Hu Touer, who came slowly over to check on his work after taking a nap, was so tired that he complained that Linzhi County was so idle all the way, and asked him to find trouble for nothing.

Hurrying all the way, the three of them finally came back before Xu time. Hu Tou'er directed Lao Zhang and Zhao Li to close the city gate, while he dragged his legs, swearing and walking up the city tower.

At this time, the doors and windows of the city tower were closed tightly, and even the charcoal fire was burned outside the house.If Hu Bingyi doesn't fight in one place, someone will make trouble again, right?

Open the door and go in, there is no one outside, Hu Touer turns to the inside with the oil lamp.

Hurrah!Deng Erhu, a bastard, dares to sleep with a quilt covered!

Hu Tou'er became angry, damn it, the old men are working hard outside, but you are hiding and dreaming of spring and autumn!But who is the boss here?

"I'm not getting up yet!" Hu Tou'er roared full of anger, and went over to throw off the quilt.

"You son of a bitch! If you don't want to do it, get out as soon as possible, don't fucking occupy the latrine and don't shit! I let you be on duty, not to hide and sleep!"

Deng Erhu was startled awake, jumped up from the bed screaming, stared at the dead fish and muttered: "I won't go! I won't go! Don't come looking for me!"

Damn, I'm bewildered in a dream!Hu Tou'er grabbed the teacup at hand and raised his hand, splashing half of the remaining tea on Deng Erhu's face.

"Not getting up yet!"

Deng Erhu woke up, saw the person in front of him clearly, hurriedly crawled over on all fours, and grabbed his belt: "Help me! Hu Touer save me!"

Hu Tou'er was resistant to beatings and falls since he was a child, advocating bravery and masculinity, and he was the most shy and timid man. Seeing Deng Erhu's shy appearance at this moment, he wished to greet him with a big ear.

With a look of disgust on his face, he said harshly: "Save your mother! If you don't pack up and climb out of bed, I will tear your bones apart right now!"

"Tang Zhong is back, he, he is entangled with me! He, he is not human now!"

Hu Tou'er was stunned for a moment, unable to figure it out, and then rubbed the stubble on his chin, turning his head in a rare way.

At noon today at home for dinner, the wife scolded him for his violent temper, and told him not to be impulsive in the future, and to think about other aspects before doing anything.

He didn't think much when pouring tea just now, but now he remembered Madam's teaching.

Well, then try to think about it in other ways.

Hu Tou'er stuck his chin, almost racking his brains, when his eyes swept over Deng Erhu's loose front, a flash of light finally flashed in his mind, and he suddenly understood something.

Lao Zhang and Zhao Li haven't come back yet, now is the most opportune time, he put away his violent attitude before, sat down on the edge of the bed, leaned his head and spoke in a low voice, his tone as gentle as possible.

"There is no one else now, so don't worry, I will never spread the word. You are my subordinate, no matter what happens, I will make the decision for you and seek justice for you!"

Deng Erhu's eyes were steaming as if he was amnesty.

Looking at the tearful face opposite, Hu Tou'er sighed secretly in his heart, and suddenly felt that it was really hard for a seven-foot man to say such a thing himself.Either way, let him speak!

Hutouer took a deep breath, stretched his neck, lowered his voice, and paused every word: "Did he, put you, to sleep?"

The author has something to say: 2022, happy new year, cuties!
