There are a total of eight tables in the store, and the net profit of each table is about [-] cents. However, the seats are usually full at noon and evening in a day, and the profit is about one tael. Double it, and there is a reward for being killed?

Yu An didn't care so much about rewards or not, what she valued was this opportunity to promote.

The county magistrate Xu has just taken office, and he is hosting a banquet for the nobles of Lin County. Naturally, he wants to publicize it, but there will definitely be many common people to join in the fun.

So compared to rewards, Yu An felt that this opportunity to be exposed was even more rare.

"It's for the county magistrate Xu, and of course it's for Linyang County. How dare I charge that much money?"

"The daily profit of two taels of silver is too much to use, it can't be regarded as a deposit, that's all."

Seeing her evasion, Zhuang Yuan quickly said: "This is impossible. This time, the master entertained distinguished guests and occupied your place for a whole day. The money must be given. The reward... It is also given to you because of the satisfaction of the banquet. You Is there anything you dare not accept?"

What Zhuang Yuan said was reasonable, but Yu'an always felt a little bit sorry for it, it was true that she occupied it for a whole day, but she could earn the money in her hand for a whole day, and besides, she was not just rich.

And reputation.

Thinking of this, Yu An even felt that only one tael of silver would be enough, so she stretched out her hand and wanted to grab Zhuang Yuan and stuff the one tael of silver into her arms.

Zhuang Yuan hid with his hands behind his back, and he refused to accept him.

The two of them pushed each other and were stared at by the guests several times. Finally, Yu An called Zhuang Yuan to the second floor and put the money on the table.

"A Yuan, if you treat me as a friend, you will accept the money!"

Zhuang Yuan's relationship with Yu'an was just a good first impression, thinking that in Linyang County, besides Li Ci's family, only Xu Zihuan is considered a friend of her, and it's not a bad thing to have one more Yu'an, but seeing Yu'an like this But in his heart, he feels that Yu An's temperament is indeed worthy of deep friendship.

If Yu'an wanted to make peace with the government today and return all the money, she might be disappointed.

However, Yu An only took part of what he deserved.

In this way, it made her look a little different. Yu'an is not a follower of others, and has his own persistence.

Zhuang Yuan pushed the silver towards Yu An, and said with a slight smile, "This silver is what Sister Yu should take."

Why should I take it?

This counts as five taels of silver, why should she take it?

Although she wants to make money, she can't make this kind of money, can she? !

So Yu'an pushed the money back with a dark face.

But the more she was like this, Zhuang Yuan's smile was indeed bigger, and he pointed to the one tael of silver on the table and said: "I said that sister Yu should take it because this is the first banquet for the county magistrate Xu, so naturally he attaches importance to it. Besides, this guest is even more precious."

"Naturally, I want sister Yu to work hard, so this money should be taken by sister Yu."

"If... Sister Yu still feels sorry for me saying that... I saw there was a gift-giving event at the entrance of the store, Sister Yu might as well treat the remaining money as County Magistrate Xu to participate in the gift-buying."

This... is not impossible.

Yu'an thought for a while, then nodded, and put away the money with a smile.

The two of them didn't stay on the second floor for a long time, Liu Huaixu went upstairs to find Yu'an, and she was too busy downstairs and needed her to go downstairs.

Zhuang Yuan didn't want to delay his business, so he offered to leave.

Before leaving, Yu An packed two bags of raw wontons for Zhuang Yuan: "Take this for you to eat with Li Ci. Remember to put chopped green onion and sesame oil first to get the flavor."

Zhuang Yuan glanced at the little wonton and didn't refuse, he smiled and said, "Okay, thank you sister Yu, you can go back and do your work."

……

Two days later, An Yue Huai Charcoal Hot Pot Restaurant put up a notice that it would be closed for one day, but the shop was busy.

"Brother Wu, have you prepared enough charcoal fire?"

"Brother Zhao... Where are the dishes? Are the dishes ready?"

"Also...Shen Cong...you are helping sister-in-law and Qiuqiu with their work today."

Zhao Ji is that middle-of-the-road guy who used to work as a kitchen assistant in a restaurant in Jiangzhi County. After Yu An knew about it, he arranged him in the back kitchen to help her. Yes, she was settling accounts, but today she was hired by County Magistrate Xu and there was no work to settle accounts, so Yu An asked her to follow Zhou Fangqiuqiu as a waiter.

A few people were busy until noon, but they had prepared everything that should be prepared.

Officially opened the door to welcome Xu County Magistrate and others.

But they waited and waited, but they waited for Zhuang Yuan first, saying that the county magistrate Xu and others were by the Linyang Lake, and that they came later, and told Yu An that there were more people than expected.

There are only so many fresh ingredients prepared, and there are too many people here. After Zhuang Yuan left, Yu An took Wu Da to go to Guan Qianyuan's place to get some meat.

Normally, Guan Qianyuan would push a cart for them to come here, but today it was a rush, Yu An was afraid that it would be too late to call a car, so he called Wu University to go there together, but the two of them had just stepped out of the door, Yu An thought of something, turned his head and followed Liu Huai Xu said: "Huai Xu, take Qiuqiu to the market, buy some vegetables, mushrooms, and chicken..."

Liu Huaixu nodded, and went out with Wu Qiuqiu.

The matter was too hasty, so Yu An could only hand over the shop to Zhou Fang and the others, saying that Zhuang Yuan had brought people here, so they would entertain them with the things they had, and they would come back soon, she told Zhou Fang asked her to say that she was going to prepare a gift for the adults. As for the others, she was telling the truth.

But as soon as they left, Zhuang Yuan hurried over again. Seeing that Yu An and other familiar people were not there, he called Zhou Fang: "Sister-in-law, where are sister Yu and the others?"

Zhou Fang has become more courageous in the past two months since she came out, and she will no longer be as timid as before when talking to Zhuang Yuan, but said openly: "You just came to talk about a lot of people, sister Yu'an let Huai Xumeizi and my Ganjun go to prepare more ingredients."

"What about Miss Yu?"

"She said there was another gift for the adults."

Zhuang Yuan and Zhou Fang are not familiar with each other, so I don't know if she can make arrangements without Yu An's presence, but just as she was about to speak, Zhou Fang made the arrangements first.

"Master Zhuang, don't worry, all arrangements have been made for sister Yu'an in this store."

That's all for now.

"Then, in about a quarter of an hour, County Magistrate Xu and others will arrive. You should prepare the dishes first."

"it is good."

After Zhuang Yuan left, Zhou Fang and the others began to get busy. Zhao Ji lit the charcoal fire, and Shen Cong passed the ingredients to Zhou Fang in the back kitchen.

Because it was a banquet, the eight tables were changed to four tables, two of which were seated for two, and the rest were changed to tables for six people. They were able to work quickly, and soon all six tables were given to the table. The dishes are ready.

In the end, Zhao Ji took the four mandarin duck pots researched by Yu An and placed them in the middle.

This mandarin duck pot was made by Yu'an after Zhuang Yuan came last time, and he thought of asking Wu University to make it. One or four is not too much, but the shop is sometimes busy. You can also help, it only took two days to get it out.

Already tried them one by one last night and they are of good quality.

The hot pot bottom and the bone soup pot were put into the pot by several people respectively, and Zhuang Yuan brought people here.

The leader is Xu Zihuan, who is wearing a light green official robe, and there are two other people beside him. The female Qianyuan in the middle is quite young, wearing a dark green official robe, and the other is an older man, Qianyuan and Zihuan. They are all light green official robes.

Shen Cong was originally a scholar, but she didn't continue to read because of the family accident. However, she still had some understanding of the affairs of the court. largest official position.

Although Zhou Fang and Zhao Ji didn't see anything, they could feel that Xu Zhixian and the other adult respected the man in the middle.

"Caomin... I have met some adults."

After Zhou Fang and the others finished their salutes, Zhuang Yuan took two steps forward, bowed and said, "Master Zhou, Lord Fang, and the boss of An Yuehuai went to prepare another gift for the arrival of the adults, which was delayed for some time... "

After all, he was just a shop owner, and the adults didn't care much about it. Xu Zihuan entered the door welcoming the two of them again. The one who went in first was Mr. Zhou, and the girl Qianyuan. Behind her was a man Kunze with a child. The three of them Step into the store first.

Xu Zihuan's invitation this time was in his own name. At the beginning, he first sought Mr. Fang, who had an old acquaintance with him. He just sent a post to Mr. Zhou in Jiangzhi County politely. He didn't expect this person to come. , but he also came with his family.

But compared to Mr. Fang, there are fewer people.

In order to make friends with people in the officialdom, Mr. Fang specially brought his future son-in-law and several scholars from Jiyuan County with him.

Shen Cong had good eyesight, and when he saw that there were three adults, he secretly moved the seats, changing the two-seater to four-seater, with several adults at one table and family members at one table.

When everyone was seated, Zhuang Yuan took a special look at Shen Cong.

……

"Master Zhou, Master Fang, come and have a taste, this is a famous delicacy in our Linyang County..." Xu Zihuan greeted the two adults, almost boasting about the charcoal hot pot.

Master Fang was familiar with Xu Zihuan and knew his temperament, so he laughed and joked: "Master Zhou doesn't know, my junior is very talkative, if he talks about delicious food, he can't be wrong."

Master Zhou smiled, and said: "I heard that brother Zihuan's ambition is to taste the world's delicacies, and I have heard about this charcoal hot pot."

Xu Zihuan laughed heartily twice, and continued: "Could it be that my food in Linyang has spread to Gyeonggi?"

Master Zhou took a bite of the mutton and put down his chopsticks before responding to Xu Zihuan: "This is indeed a delicacy, but it may not come out of Linyang in the future."

If he could really get out of Linyang, Xu Zihuan's face would also be bright, so he would be happy.

When several people were eating, Yu'an and Wuhan University also arrived near the shop. Yu'an was holding a pot of meat in his hand, which was specially brought for her to find a reason for her late return. Others were worse, if she It's rude to be the boss.

So let Wuhan University take the meat in through the back door first, and she enters through the door.

As soon as the tower entered the door, Zhuang Yuan walked in front of her, wanting to tell Yu An about the situation, but Yu An froze for a while, looking at the familiar face at the six-person table.

It was Ji Shaokang and Yu Zheng.

At this time, the two also saw her, and quickly put down the chopsticks in their hands.

Seeing Yu An stunned, Zhuang Yuan thought she was timid, and wanted to remind her quickly, but before he could walk over, he heard someone behind him say in a strange way: "Yu An, this is Mr. Zhou and Mr. Fang. There are many places for adults to entertain, how can you wait for ordinary people to come?"

After hearing her words, Yu An frowned deeply, and didn't say anything, but Zhuang Yuan put his face down, and turned his head to look at Yu Zheng who had spoken, puzzled and angrily.
