With doubts in his heart, Zhang Nan ate the fish bit by bit. After thinking too much, he couldn't even tell what the fish tasted like.
Zhang Yu didn't think of so many things. He had been tired for a whole day, and something very interesting had happened in the same day. He just finished his work and decided to taste the fish.
He didn't just cook one fish like the female boss had said. He had already cooked the two fish he brought back. One plate was placed on the table, and the other was placed in the kitchen. He wanted to eat it tomorrow, so he cooked it today.
"Eat, eat, eat. Don't stare at the rice. Eat the fish." Wang Juan washed her hands and came to eat with them. This time, she didn't scold them.
Even so, Zhang Nan and Zhang Yu didn't dare to eat slowly. They chose a small place to eat the meat and didn't touch the other parts of the fish.
Before Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan finished half a bowl of rice, Zhang Yu and Zhang Yu ate three bowls each. They put down their chopsticks and looked at Wang Juan, indicating that they wanted to go back.
"Why are you looking at me? If you want to go, just go. Remember to take the other fish in the kitchen back. Also, prepare the rice for Xiaogang and Xiaoyi. They are also wounded. "
Wang Juan pointed at the direction of the kitchen with her chopsticks and said to the two.
"Ah, ah? Don't you want to eat it tomorrow? "Zhang Yu asked in surprise. Why did the female boss become so easy to talk to in such a short time?
"Tomorrow? We'll eat it tomorrow night. Tomorrow, Xiao Nan will go to the fishing place. No matter what, you must bring back more fish. But you are not allowed to spend money. The restaurant doesn't have that kind of money. "
Wang Juan said to Zhang Yu, but her eyes were looking at Zhang Nan.
Zhang Xiaobao swallowed the rice in his mouth and said, "Yes, Xiao Nan tomorrow, Xiaogang the day after tomorrow, and Xiaoyu the day after tomorrow. Oh, with the Fishing Association, it's much more convenient for us to eat fish. They mainly want to fish, not to eat. Rich people, they are all rich people."
"Hurry up and leave. Don't you want to get up and do your work tomorrow?" Wang Juan began to urge Zhang Xiaobao the moment he finished speaking.
Zhang Yu nodded repeatedly and ran to the kitchen as fast as she could to pack the things. She took them out and called Zhang Nan, who was even more confused, to leave with her.
Zhang Nan's sudden idea became more and more intense, especially after he heard the boss talk about the order of rotation.
There were four workers in the shop, but three of them were taking turns to go out. Zhang Yi was not allowed to go out. This was interesting. Why was Zhang Yi not allowed to go out?
Puzzled, Zhang Nan walked to the door. The female boss's words came from behind him.
"All of you should be more alert when you do things. Don't just stay in the shop like an idiot. Look around. Isn't there a grocery store nearby? More people go there to buy things than to eat.
They didn't come in to eat. It wasn't that they didn't know about this restaurant, nor was it that they didn't want to eat. They just felt that it was a little expensive to come in and eat once.
They think it's expensive because a plate of braised food is too big. Can't you make a smaller plate and put it in the grocery store and take the initiative to sell it to them? With so many people coming and going, you can ask them if there's anything to improve on the braised food in our shop.
Don't be afraid that they won't buy it. Even if they don't buy, you can still talk to them. After a long time, they will be familiar with each other. Maybe when they want to eat something like snacks, the first thing they think of is your shop. Remember? "
"Boss, I remember, I remember. It means to take the initiative to sell it. I will try it tomorrow." Zhang Yu heard the voice coming from behind and stood there. After waiting for the boss to finish speaking, she hurriedly responded.
"Let's go." Wang Juan's voice came again.
Zhang Yu still didn't think too much about it, but Zhang Nan's eyes lit up. That's right, why would he let his people stay in the store all the time? If there was a problem, he could let his people go to the grocery store. He could even arrange for his people to stay in the grocery store.
Walking out of the shop and chatting with others would make it easier to pass on information and information more accurate. Why didn't I think of it before? It's the boss … Is the boss hinting at something?
Following behind Zhang Yu, Zhang Nan suddenly felt that the two masters were very mysterious. It was as if the masters were always inadvertently directing some kind of important matter.
Meanwhile, the braised food shop had become a whirlpool that constantly involved people from all walks of life. The more it involved, the more people it involved. The more it involved, the smoother the collection of relevant information became.
This time, his and Wang Gang's departments could be considered to be working together. The news from Jiangzhou was that the people from both sides had worked together and achieved some results, but it wasn't too obvious. After investigating a place, they would immediately be cut off by the other side.
Although there was always new information, the progress was too slow. It even delayed the emperor and Zhang Yu's other arrangements. Even Xiao Bei and the others were forced to stay on the boat and couldn't get off.
However, just as they were stuck in a deadlock, the braised food store opened, and within two days, they managed to contact the Wang Family Residence.
Then, everything started to become clear, especially Zhang Yi. It was now confirmed that he was sent by the other party. There was no need to explain their purpose. They were definitely trying to find a way to infiltrate the Wang Family Estate and grasp the situation of the store.
At the crucial moment, they would use a slow poison or obtain useful information from the Wang Family Estate. Perhaps there were already people from the other party in the Wang Family Estate. However, due to the time limit of the Wang Family Estate, they couldn't come out. Mn! It was very likely.
Thus, Zhang Yi came, and so did the three of them. They were divided into four factions and all of them were gathered in the store. They were either attacking or defending, scheming and scheming, all for the sake of obtaining control of the store.
However, for the past few days, the power seemed to be in the hands of the two bosses. There was no one who could persuade the bosses to do anything or control the important resources of the store.
Logically speaking, the four of them were not ordinary people, so why were they always restrained by the two bosses in the process of fighting? It was very strange. However, after investigating, the two bosses' backgrounds were very clean. What was going on?
"Zhang Nan, what are you thinking about? We're almost there. Do you think Wang Gang can follow Zhang Yi and obtain some information from him? "
Zhang Yu saw that Zhang Nan was walking with his head lowered, so he asked in puzzlement. Now that the situation was clear, the three of them were on the same side. There was no need to hide anything from each other, so he should speak up first.
Hearing Zhang Yu's words, Zhang Nan didn't reveal any surprise. He also understood that the three of them had already confirmed their identities through the power of the organization.
Thus, Zhang Nan said, "Zhang Yu, let me ask you something. Don't you think that the boss of the braised food shop is different from other normal bosses?"
"Different? How is it different? The male boss is simple and honest, sometimes even stupid, but the food he makes is delicious. At the same time, he is timid and afraid of his wife. The female boss always wants to take advantage of him and also likes to scold people. She is more annoying than other bosses, so it's normal.
If you have to say what's different, it's probably that they dare to charge a high price for something worthless. It's very smart because they succeeded. It's that sea creature made of biscuits.
No one usually eats small crabs, and most people by the sea don't eat them either. There's no meat inside, so if you boil it, it's uncomfortable to eat it. If you fry it, it wastes oil. Who would have thought that it could be sold at such a high price in the hands of the boss? I found it, it's different, it's really different. "
Zhang Yu didn't understand the meaning behind Zhang Nan's words. He was still analyzing the personalities of the two bosses.
Zhang Nan felt that Zhang Yu's organization had made a mistake by sending Zhang Yu. He was too stupid. He guessed that his organization didn't have too many people, and they didn't have enough funds for training. Most importantly, they couldn't make too much of a fanfare.
Thinking of this, Zhang Nan felt that it was normal. He continued asking, "If it was a normal shop and you went in to do things, would you be able to gain the boss's trust and manage the entire shop?"
"Another shop? Let me think. Oh, if it was another shop, it would be much better than the braised food shop. I would be able to give ideas to the boss and let him earn more money. Give me some time, and I would definitely be able to grasp the situation in the shop. I might even be able to influence the boss and the other employees.
However, this braised food shop is different. The female boss has her own ideas in everything she does. Moreover, the things they do are beyond my expectations. For example, the reason why we came here is because the items in their shop entered the Wang Family's estate.
The emperor is in the Wang Family, and the madams of the Zhang and Wang Families are also in the Wang Family. We were afraid that something would happen in the shop, so we came here. We didn't expect to meet Zhang Yi here, which gave us a clear goal to work with.
If I came directly to the shop before the items were sold in the Wang Family's estate, I definitely wouldn't have the ability to come up with an idea to let the food in the shop enter the Wang Family's estate. The main reason is that the power behind me wouldn't be able to directly influence the matters in the Wang Family's estate.
If it was you guys, it would be much easier. You could get someone to open a shop and sell the items in the Wang Family's estate. After that, you could attract people like Zhang Yi and search for clues on him. "
Zhang Yu followed Zhang Nan's words. When she reached this point, she suddenly stopped and said to Zhang Nan in astonishment, "Why didn't I think of such a good idea? Aiya, don't tell me the boss was arranged by you guys? "
"How is that possible? If we were the ones arranged by them, would they dare to treat us like this? We would have already given up our authority. However, if that was the case, Zhang Yi and the others probably wouldn't appear. It would be too obvious.
Also, if we were to open a shop, it wouldn't work at all. It could only be a shop related to food. Otherwise, what doesn't the Wang Family have? Could it be that they could come out to buy some ordinary things? If they wanted to open a shop, it would take a long time to prepare. "
Zhang Nan shook his head and said.
He also suspected that someone arranged for the boss to open a shop here, but after thinking about it, he found that it was impossible. If a spy was really arranged to open a shop here, he must first cook good food, and then his acting skills must also be top-notch.
In addition, during the process of getting along with his people, he must ensure that he didn't reveal any flaws. It was very difficult to do this. They must carry out targeted training in advance, but they didn't have the time, because no one had thought of this method.
This method was too difficult to implement, especially in a very natural situation. The food made by the boss was first praised by the people in the Fishing Association, which couldn't be faked. Maybe the boss behind Zhang Yi was also in the Fishing Association. How could he not know whether the food was delicious or not?
If the food was really not delicious, the boss would definitely be noticed by the boss through his organization. Besides, how good would his acting skills be to not be seen through by the people on Zhang Yi's side?
"Zhang Yu, I'm confused. Let me analyze it for you …" Zhang Nan summarized what had happened in the past few days, including what the two bosses said just now. In the end, he came to the conclusion that one of the bosses was cooperating with the three forces to deal with Zhang Yi.
After that, he asked Zhang Yu, "What do you think? Especially what the female boss said when we walked out of the door. Is she reminding us not to put all our manpower in the braised food store? Is there another store next to it? "
"Huh? You understood what I meant? No way! You are in the emperor's power. You have trained your spies so well. The female boss is just a woman. How can she give you pointers?
It's just a coincidence. If you don't believe me, you can think about it carefully. Maybe the boss didn't do anything deliberately. It's all our fault. The boss has been acting according to the normal situation, and then this happened to us.
Zhang Yi was beaten, and he was hit on the head. Maybe the boss was afraid that something bad would happen, so she asked Wang Gang to go back with him. If he was beaten and died in the room rented by the boss, the government would investigate. How could the boss not be afraid? "
Zhang Yu listened to Zhang Nan's analysis and was shocked. After pondering for a while, he felt that it was impossible. The matters in the shop seemed to have always been the result of the four of them fighting. The owner was just following the four of them.
"I hope I'm thinking too much. Otherwise, the boss's identity will be suspicious." Zhang Nan shook his head and said, "As you said, it's normal. But it's just so coincidental. I don't believe it's a coincidence, but I just feel that it's not like that."
"Don't think about it if you can't figure it out. The boss is still the boss. The fish tonight is good. Do you think Zhang Yi and Wang Gang went back now?"
Zhang Yu thought of the two people who left one after another. He didn't know how they met, but it must be very interesting.
"They should go back. Zhang Yi can't go too far. Otherwise, when we finish our work and go back, we won't see him. Isn't he afraid of being suspected? If he has been trained, he should know that when doing things, he has to suspect everyone around him to prevent any mistakes. "
Zhang Nan also didn't know how Wang Gang and Zhang Yi met. If it was one after the other, then Zhang Yi went to another place to contact someone. Wang Gang came back after Zhang Yi came back. In that case, if the boss talked about it the next day, how would Wang Gang deal with it?
If Wang Gang went back first after watching someone, then Zhang Yi, who left first, went back later. How would he explain it?
The two of them entered the courtyard with doubts in their hearts. As soon as they entered, they heard the sound of chickens. The chickens were caught and raised in the courtyard. It seemed that the boss planned to raise them to lay eggs and eat meat. It seemed that the boss planned to run the shop for a long time. There shouldn't be any other purpose.
After thinking about it, Zhang Nan opened the door and went in. There was still light in the room. When he entered the bedroom, he first smelled the smell of medicinal wine.
When he looked up, he saw Wang Gang rubbing the wound on Zhang Yi's forehead. Although it was only a small wound, it was swollen and could be rubbed away with medicinal wine.
"Second Brother, how is Big Brother?" Zhang Nan asked with concern.
"He's okay. The bump is a lot smaller. Come and rub it. My arms are sore. When I came back, Big Brother wasn't there. I was scared because Big Brother fainted on the road. It was dark outside and I couldn't see clearly. I went out to look for him, but I couldn't find him. After a while, Big Brother came back with the medicinal wine.
I didn't expect that we should be helping Big Brother. Today was really unlucky. Big Brother was standing there, but because he was close to the door, he was implicated.
Tell me, what's going on? If those five people offended someone, they wouldn't do it in the shop. If it was really a robbery, how could they just take a handful of change? This is really puzzling. "
Wang Gang handed the medicinal wine to Zhang Nan and said while shaking his wrist.
Zhang Nan nodded. He couldn't figure out what was going on either. It was like a dream, but it happened.
While rubbing the bump on Zhang Yi's forehead, Zhang Nan said, "Who knows? Unless we catch the person in black and ask him, maybe we can find out. Big Brother, where did you get the medicinal wine at this time of night?"
"Ouch, be gentle. I can't get it anywhere. I bought it with money. I knocked on the door, but they weren't satisfied and asked me for an extra coin," Zhang Yi said with a grin.
Zhang Yi said with a grin. He did smash the door, and he didn't know the person who sold the medicine. He thought about what he would do if he met the other three people on the way back, so he did everything. Even if someone questioned him, he wouldn't give himself away.
"It's fine if it's an extra coin. After all, they sold things in the middle of the night. Anyone would feel uncomfortable. Just take it as hard work." Zhang Nan said with less strength.
Seeing that it was over, Zhang Yi groaned again, "Hiss, it's about time. That's it for today. Go to sleep. I have to get up early to work tomorrow. I originally wanted to take some time to clean up the rented house. I put dust on the places that need to be dusted, and the tiles that need to be dusted, but I've been busy.
How about this, I'll clean the other two houses tomorrow. When you get up in the morning, you guys go first. I won't take too much time. You guys tell the owner. How about it? "
While asking, Zhang Yi observed the expressions of the three people. He began to suspect that one of them was the person who wanted to deal with him. To be precise, he was the person who wanted to deal with his organization. If one of the three people disagreed, he would have to pay more attention to him.
There was a tacit understanding between the three people now. When they heard Zhang Yi's question, they all nodded in agreement. Especially Wang Gang, he already knew where Zhang Yi went. When Zhang Yi stayed tomorrow morning, he could arrange for someone to investigate the person who contacted Zhang Yi.
Seeing the attitude of the three people, Zhang Yi was confused again. Could it be that he was thinking too much? Normally, if someone wanted to deal with him, they would have to stay together with him.
Shaking his head, Zhang Yi, who couldn't understand, turned over and lay on the bed. He waited for someone to blow out the oil lamp. He opened his eyes and looked at the dark ceiling before slowly falling asleep.
As for the fish, no one ate it. They were too sleepy to bear. They could only think about it tomorrow. It probably wouldn't spoil overnight.
The next morning, Zhang Nan and the other two people left Zhang Yi at home and went to the braised food shop first.
Zhang Nan was directly sent out. Today, he was in charge of staying at the fishing area and asking people what kind of texture they wanted when they ate the burrito. When he came back, he would tell the owner so that the owner could improve.
At the same time, he also did the most important thing, which was to dress up as a shopper and wander around the grocery store next door. It would be an additional channel to pass information.
As usual, Zhang Xiaobao made food for his mother. This morning, other than the ten trays of steamed buns, he also made shumai with mutton. The biggest difference between the two was that one was made with dough, while the other was made with dough. In terms of taste, there wasn't much difference between the fillings. The main difference was the texture.
Zhang Xiaobao even prepared to make a Halal "Turn Back". This one was very fragrant, but the best fillings were beef. He couldn't buy beef in his store, and even if there was beef, he wouldn't dare to make it.
There was no such thing as Halal now. Furthermore, he had tried making it at home, and even Li Longji felt that it was good. However, it definitely wasn't available in other places, including the restaurant Between the Clouds and the Water. After all, this thing used beef as the fillings.
If he really made it and sent it to the Prince's Mansion, almost everyone in the inner courtyard would know who the owner of the store was. Li Longji might even have to come over personally. That would be really troublesome.
While waiting for the servants of the Prince's Mansion to come over to pick it up, Zhang Yi also finished cleaning and came back. He was indeed cleaning. Who asked him to bring it up yesterday, and the other three also agreed.
In addition to cleaning, he also prepared some food for Chick. He didn't do anything else, let alone contact his own people. He couldn't let his own people come to the rented house. It was too easy to be exposed.
As soon as Zhang Yi came over, Zhang Xiaobao asked with concern, "Zhang Yi, how's your head? Are you confused? "
"No, Brother Zhang, look, it's fine. There's just a red mark on the broken part. After two days, the red mark on the outside will disappear. It doesn't look like it was injured at all. There's still a little bit left on the original bag.
It'll be fine after tomorrow, "Zhang Yi pointed at his head and replied with a smile.
"It's good that you're fine. You rest first. Look, Xiaogang already told them that we can deliver it to them. As long as we're done here, we'll deliver it to them. We don't want to delay the eating time. If the steamed buns are left for too long, the taste will become worse."
Zhang Xiaobao signaled Zhang Yi to look at the servants of the Wang Mansion who were waiting there.
Hearing this, Zhang Yi was tempted. He wanted to take over this job, but Wang Gang was in charge of everything in the shop. What if Wang Gang was given a tip when he delivered the goods and didn't let him do it?
Just as he was thinking about how to take over the job, the voice of the female boss sounded.
"Zhang Yi, in a while, you go and recognize the door first. Remember the way, it'll be convenient when you deliver things in the future. Be smart, don't just be a fool. Don't just focus on delivering things. Build a good relationship with others. Ask the concierge what they like to eat. We'll cook for them later.
That's the mansion of the Wang Family. It's not ordinary. If you can do the business there, this store will become more and more popular in the future. See if there's any space behind. If other people's houses are for sale, buy it.
Our store can be chosen by the Wang Mansion. There will be a lot of people coming to eat. Now the store can't fit all of them. We can't let everyone directly take back to eat, right? "
"Let me go?" Zhang Yi didn't react for a while. He pointed at himself and asked in disbelief.
"What? Just now you said that your head was fine. Is it hurting again? I asked you to do some work and you want to shirk. Tell me, do you only want to eat white rice every day? Ah? If you're like this, the store can't afford to feed you. You'd better take your salary and leave as soon as possible. I'll find another diligent one. It's not easy to find a three-legged toad in this world … "
Zhang Yi only asked a question, but he was bombarded by Wang Juan's words. Zhang Yi wanted to interrupt several times, but he didn't have a chance.
When Wang Juan was thirsty and looking for water to drink, Zhang Yi found an opportunity and said, "Boss, that's not what I mean. I'm happy. I'll go, I'll go. I'll definitely build a good relationship with them. Then our store can become bigger and earn more money. If you're happy and give me a higher salary, I'll …"
"Let's not talk about the salary first. Go, pay attention when you speak. Don't say anything. If you make people unhappy, you don't have to come back."
When Wang Juan heard Zhang Yi mention the salary, she immediately waved her hand impatiently.
It could be said that Zhang Yi couldn't ask for more. After nodding repeatedly, he picked up the things and followed the servants back. In fact, he didn't need to know the way. The main thing was that he could talk to the other party and sell the things in the store to them in the future.
The way, in fact, referred to the connections.
Watching Zhang Yi leave, Wang Gang looked at Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao in surprise. It was his effort to deliver the things to the Wang Mansion. He had planned to have an excuse to go there at any time in the future. He didn't expect that he would give the opportunity to Zhang Yi.
Didn't the boss say that he was in charge of the arrangements of the shop's staff? Why did he interfere? If Zhang Yi went over and found out more information, or even if it was like what Zhang Nan had analyzed this morning, that there was someone in the Wang Fu waiting for him, then the other side would know the situation in the Wang Fu.
While Wang Gang was thinking, Zhang Yu came to his side and whispered in his ear, "You have to think of a way to keep an eye on them. If the other party has people in the mansion, you must catch them. Otherwise, if they hide in the mansion, it will be a disaster."
Hearing Zhang Yu's words, Wang Gang suddenly shivered. He didn't think of this. Under the situation of inertia, he was only thinking about how to defend. He didn't expect that there would be a way to lure the snake out of its hole. Yes, give Zhang Yi and the others a chance.
In this way, the boss's casual arrangement had a very big effect. It was really like what Zhang Nan and Zhang Yu said on the way here that they had talked about last night.
When the boss did things, he always made the three of them feel very comfortable. Coincidence? Was it really just a coincidence? That was too much of a coincidence.
With this thought in mind, Wang Gang turned his head to observe the two bosses.
'Yes! Brother Zhang was still the same. When he saw a customer coming, he would look over and smile. The female boss was still behind the counter, counting the change. Then, she would place the change one by one on the counter. Her eyes, however, would occasionally look at the few tables where people were eating. If someone took the food, she would immediately take note of it.
Wang Gang thought in his heart, but didn't find anything different. The only difference was that the two bosses were literate, but their handwriting was not very good. The female boss was even left-handed, which looked awkward.
'For the time being, I will take it as a coincidence. In the future, I will have to observe more. If it is another group of people, because of my negligence, I can't afford to take the blame.'
Wang Gang thought about it for a while and then went to add more things to the shelves. Zhang Yu also followed suit.
Not long after, Zhang Yi came back. As soon as he came back, he took out a few coins, all of which were one copper coin. He smiled and went to the counter, put them one by one on the counter, and said to Wang Juan, "Boss, I am back. This is the reward, a total of nine copper coins. Please count it."
Wang Juan looked at the nine copper coins and was speechless. He was not Kong Yiji, so why did he have to do this?
But she still carefully counted them one by one, and then put them together. After thinking for a while, she reluctantly took down a coin that looked a bit old and put it on the counter. She pushed it in front of Zhang Yi with one finger and said, "This is for you. Normally, I would give you one coin for ten coins. Today is the first time, so I'll give you a bargain."
"Thank you, Boss. I will work hard in the future and not cause trouble for you." Zhang Yi was so grateful that he was about to cry. He took the coin and held it tightly in his hand.
He really wanted to cry. This job was not easy, and it was only one copper coin. Was there a need to be so reluctant? What if he didn't take it out? Then, wouldn't he earn nine copper coins? The most infuriating thing was that he had to pretend to be happy, happy, and grateful for the one copper coin.
Zhang Yu and Wang Gang looked at the boss and Zhang Yi's actions and wanted to laugh heartily.
*****
When all the unusual things had returned to their normal daily lives, something even more unusual finally happened.
At noon, there were even more customers in the restaurant. Some of them were unwilling to take their food away and just stood in the restaurant, eating and drinking, just like Xian Heng's restaurant described in the book.
It was a good situation, but someone suddenly appeared and broke the "peace" of the restaurant.
Jang Wong Clan came in person with a group of guards and the inner courtyard. However, she did not let Wang Shi come with her.
She missed her son. She always felt that it was better for her son and daughter-in-law to eat and wear good clothes at home than to run a small restaurant outside. Moreover, they had to smile to others.
Although she knew that her son and daughter-in-law had their own plans, since it was right in front of her, she might as well take a look. As for why she did not bring Wang Shi, it was naturally because she was afraid that Wang Shi would not be able to control her expression and be discovered by others. If that happened, wouldn't her son and daughter-in-law's plan be in vain?
When the Jang Wong Clan arrived, the entire restaurant was in an uproar. Wang Gang's eyes widened in shock and fear. He glanced around and felt that everyone in the restaurant was a threat to the master's wife, especially Zhang Yi.
A few guards squeezed in first, followed by two servant girls, and then Jang Wong Clan.
When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan saw that their mother had arrived, they looked at each other. Zhang Xiaobao immediately smiled and said, "Hehe, hehehehe, the noble is here. Aiya, even the walls of this small restaurant are glowing."
"Oh, you are the one who made the buns for me? Not bad, I heard that you are good-looking and have a good personality. Needless to say, you are all ordinary people. I am here to see for myself. Is there still a table for us to eat? "
The Jang Wong Clan acted as if it was the first time she had seen Zhang Xiaobao. She carefully sized him up and said casually.
With a 'hua' sound, everyone who was sitting down and eating immediately stood up. They all looked very respectful.
Wang Gang directly looked at the table of his own people and quickly went over to clean up the table. As he cleaned up, he thanked them, "Thank you, thank you. Then the three of you can only stand and eat."
However, the people at the other tables were not willing. They all said that they should stand up and eat by themselves. It was as if it was an honor for the Jang Wong Clan to occupy their table.
None of the other people felt that there was anything wrong with giving up their table for the Jang Wong Clan. It had nothing to do with the status of the Jang Wong Clan. The main thing was that the Jang Wong Clan gave birth to a good son.
Everyone felt that with the good things that Xiao Bao had done for Tang Dynasty, his mother, the Jang Wong Clan, should be treated with the same courtesy no matter where she went. From luxurious restaurants to ordinary shops, there should be a table for the Jang Wong Clan.
The Jang Wong Clan did not stand on ceremony. She thanked the two maids and sat down on the stool. She nodded and smiled at the people around her as a form of greeting.
This time, no one continued to sit down. They would rather leave the table empty than sit down. They felt that it was a blasphemy for Tang Dynasty to sit together with the Jang Wong Clan. The Jang Wong Clan had to be treated like this.
Moreover, the people who were standing and eating also became vigilant. They stared at each other, afraid that someone would do something to hurt the Jang Wong Clan.
Zhang Yu looked at them from the side and sighed. This was what it meant to be prominent. The hearts of the people were not just about how much money a person had. If you had money and status, others might not dare to offend you, but they would definitely not protect you without asking for anything in return. At the most, you could occupy a table and people would not eat and leave. So what if you had money? It was hard to buy money, but I am willing to do so.
Wang Gang was very nervous. He looked around and realized that there were three people eating at his table. He should not leave his table. When he saw Zhang Yu, he quickly said, "Zhang Yu, go and get the dishes."
Then, he wanted to ask Zhang Yi to leave the restaurant. It would be better if Zhang Yi stayed outside to welcome the guests. That way, it would be less dangerous.
Before he could say anything, Wang Juan spoke first, "Shi Tou, what are you waiting for? Hurry up, go and make two dishes for the noble lady to try. Although our restaurant is small, it is good that we are diligent. Isn't that right, madam? "
Jang Wong Clan looked at Wang Juan and smiled even more. She nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it is good that you are diligent. Haha, come and sit here. Sit here and talk. You are called Shi Tou, right? Just cook a few dishes. "
After she asked Wang Juan to sit down, Jang Wong Clan was even more relieved. She knew that her son and daughter-in-law were not weak. With Cuckoo by their side, they would be much more stable.
The eyes of the two maidservants in the inner courtyard flashed with a trace of surprise, but they immediately returned to their normal state. The two of them had already recognized their young master and young lady.
Why did these two people who did not know come here to open a restaurant? No wonder the madam wanted to come here personally. It turned out that she missed her son and daughter-in-law.
Since the young master and young lady had disguised themselves, the two of them definitely could not show it. They had to cooperate, otherwise it would delay the proper business.
Zhang Xiaobao was very fast at cooking. In less than two minutes, a plate of vinegar cabbage was ready. He carried it out. Zhang Yi was about to take it when Wang Juan glared at him and said, "Zhang Yi, hurry up and see if there is anything else that others want. The madam is a rich noble, how can she let you do the work? You are just a servant. "
Zhang Yi secretly cursed in his heart. Didn't he just want to curry favor with the Jang Wong Clan? Humph.
Then he thought that if he could kill the Jang Wong Clan at this time, then he would also die. But it would be very helpful to the organization. Unfortunately, at this time, his people did not come to eat. He estimated that he would not be able to get close by himself.
Aiya, it would be good if he was the one to deliver the dishes. But this damned female boss did not give him the chance.
Seeing the dishes being carried out, Wang Gang wanted to eat, but he was also glared at by Wang Juan, so he did not dare to make a sound.
Zhang Xiaobao directly put the dishes in front of his mother and said with a smile, "You eat. Hehe, the cabbage is leftover from last time. We, we are not willing to eat it. Try it, I, I will make the next dish for you."
"Good, make another one. I can't finish it if there is too much. It would be a waste to throw it away." Jang Wong Clan narrowed her eyes and said to Zhang Xiaobao. She picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat.
At this time, one of the two maids quickly stopped her, "Madam, let this servant try first, this dish …"
"It's fine. Looking at Shi Shi, I know that he is not a bad person. And this girl, one look and I know that she is from the Tang Empire. How could a Tang Empire citizen harm me, right?"
Jang Wong Clan seemed to be asking everyone.
"Yes." The voices that were not very uniform echoed in the room.
The maid pretended to be very embarrassed and hesitated. When she saw that Jang Wong Clan took a bite, she picked up the chopsticks and also took a bite. She meant that if they were going to die, they would die together.
The other maid did not need to be too excessive. She said to Jang Wong Clan, "Madam, why don't this servant go to the counter and help with the bookkeeping? What do you think?"
"Okay, okay, after Shi Shi is done with the second dish, you can sit there." Jang Wong Clan knew what the maid meant and said.
When the maid squeezed her way to the counter and started to do the bookkeeping, Zhang Xiaobao also finished the second dish. He still personally brought it over, said that there was still soup, and turned around and squeezed back.
After a while, the soup was also ready. It was a soup with garlic sprouts and eggs. At the same time, he also brought over a piece of cake. He did not bring any seafood as it was not suitable for his mother.
The main reason was that Zhang Xiaobao did not have good quality rice. The rice he was eating now was the local rice. The taste was much worse than the rice from the northern part of Hebei Province. However, the rice still had seeds. How could it appear in his small restaurant?
Jang Wong Clan ate while looking back and forth between Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. She was eating very happily, and the people around also felt hungry. They smelled the dishes. Although it was just two simple dishes, they smelled really good.
At this time, they realized that the owner of the braised food restaurant not only made delicious braised food, but also cooked stir-fried food. It was just that they did not have the luck to eat it. It was probably because the restaurant was small and busy.
Wang Gang stood at the side and also could not squeeze over. He wanted to squeeze in, but was afraid that he would be too obvious and be seen by Zhang Yi. Therefore, he had to stay a few steps away and watch the owner's wife eat there worriedly.
He was really worried that the owner would not cook well or put some slow poison in the food. After all, the owner's wife was pregnant. However, he did not know why he saw absolute trust in the owner's eyes. It was as if the food was not made by the people outside, but by her own family. She did not have the slightest doubt.
Jang Wong Clan drank a mouthful of soup and stopped. She looked at Zhang Xiaobao and said, "It's delicious. You have to cook more for me in the future. Recently, I always eat the food you cook. Although I pay for it, some things are not easy to buy even if you pay for it.
When I came here, I brought some ingredients for you. You can cook as you see fit. There's beef from cows that accidentally died, venison, and some fresh vegetables. Oh, I also brought some chilies for you. If you want to eat them, just cook them. Don't make it difficult for yourself. "
"Madam, there's also the desserts that you made yourself. There are not many people like you, madam. You spend money to buy food, but you still give other things to people. Madam, you are so kind."
The servant girl beside her also echoed Jang Wong Clan's words.
Zhang Xiaobao immediately became panicked. He rubbed his hands and said with a flattered expression, "This … how can this be? Making, making a dish is something that should be done. Yes, it should be done, right?"
The servant girl asked Wang Juan. When Wang Juan heard Zhang Xiaobao, she raised her head and looked at Zhang Xiaobao. She immediately got the hint from the other party's eyes and quickly said, "Isn't that so? Madam, we really don't know what to do. You made the food yourself and gave us a lot of ingredients that we can't buy. I've heard of the chilies, but I've never eaten it. I think it's very good, right?"
"There's also good rice. Take everything that is useful." The servant girl said to Wang Juan.
"Yes, there are so many things. This … Aiya, Shi Tou, you have to do a good job so that madam can have a taste of your cooking. Madam, how about this, every day at noon, our shop will specially set aside a table for you to eat. You can come and eat at night. You … what do you think?"
Wang Juan also seemed to be very embarrassed, so she invited Shi Tou.
When most of the people around heard Wang Juan's words, they all felt that the owner of the shop didn't know what was good for her. How could the Jang Wong Clan come to eat every day? What if there was danger? However, this shop's business would probably be better in the future. It would be several times or even dozens of times better.
Even the Jang Wong Clan came to eat, so it was obvious how good the food in the shop was. They had countless restaurants like Between the Clouds and the Water, Sea and Clouds, Blue Sea and Silver Sand.
