After all, a restaurant was not a teahouse. The things involved in a restaurant were much more complicated and required more energy and time. Therefore, after Jin Wuque took over the restaurant, even though Liu Jian was in charge of training the chefs, the entire operation of the restaurant made Jin Wuque very busy. He did not have time to deal with other things.
It was worth mentioning that Yin Changqing and his son blocked the entrance of the World's Number One Tea Shop. In the end, they were bullied by Du Qi. In the end, the business of the Yin Family's tea shop plummeted.
The business of the World's Number One Tea Shop became better and better.
However, these things had nothing to do with Jin Wuque. He was busy with the restaurant. When he found a suitable restaurant, Jin Wuque directly bought the entire house.
The current Du Qi did not lack money.
With the money from the Fang Family, Cheng Family, Yuchi Family, and Liu Family, it was enough to run the restaurant. The location of the restaurant was still in Yongxing City. However, it was not on the same street as the tea shop. It was on a street near the east side of the city.
The restaurant occupied a very large area. The front hall and backyard were close to eighty mu. It was very spacious.
The front hall had two floors. The ground floor was the main hall and the second floor was the private rooms. As for the backyard of the restaurant, it was an area of a higher level. There were fake mountains, flowing water, ponds, willow trees, and pavilions. It was very elegant.
In fact, it was because Du Qi was rich and had the influence of the Cheng Family, Yuchi Family, Fang Family, and Liu Family that he was able to buy such a big house.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to buy it alone.
After Jin Wuque bought the house, he discussed the renovation plan with Du Qi. Then, he called for the craftsmen to start the renovation. Just this matter alone took up close to a month.
After the renovation, the restaurant had a hall that was specially used for large-scale banquets. Not to mention fifty or sixty tables, even a hundred tables would not be a problem. It could accommodate enough people.
Apart from that, there was a private room.
The tables and chairs in the hall were different from the ones used in the current Tang Dynasty.
The current Tang Dynasty was different from the Two Han Dynasties and Three Kingdoms. People no longer knelt but sat on stools. The stools used in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties were called crescent stools. There were also chairs with high backs. These stools were different from the ones used in the future.
Crescent stools and armchairs were not bad, but in reality, they were not versatile enough.
The tables and chairs in Du Qi's restaurant were all designed by Du Qi. He designed it according to the round tables in the hotels of the future. The stools were the same. The stools had backrests, and when one sat down, one's feet could be relaxed. This way, when people sat around the round table and ate, the atmosphere would be more lively.
Inside the elegant room, a round table was also used.
The second floor was filled with elegant rooms. Just the rooms alone numbered more than 30.
With so many elegant rooms, it was enough to accommodate countless people.
Other than that, there were also some places in the backyard for entertainment. However, it wasn't fully decorated yet, so it wasn't open to the public yet. Du Qi was planning to push it step by step, changing it bit by bit, and eventually expanding the entire restaurant.
The weather in May was gradually getting hotter.
After the restaurant was renovated, Jin Wuque was in high spirits and was in a good mood. He went to the Du family early in the morning. This May, the weather was hotter than usual.
Although Jin Wuque was busy these days, he had put on a few rounds of weight and was much rounder. When he arrived at the residence, he went straight to the backyard. When he saw Du Qi, he said respectfully, "Young Master, the restaurant is fully renovated. Now, we are just waiting for you to confirm the opening date. "
Du Qi asked, "Are the other things ready?"
"Everything is ready."
Jin Wuque said as if he was very familiar with it. "Young Master, the meat supply in the kitchen, no matter if it is mutton, pork, or other dishes, are all ready. In addition to the many chefs that Liu Jian has groomed in the past month, everything is ready. Once the opening date is confirmed, we can open for business. "
Du Qi asked, "Jin Wuque, how do you plan to advertise the opening?"
Jin Wuque thought for a while and replied, "Young Master, you have His Highness Duke of Qin's inscription — The Number One Dish in the World. Our restaurant will use this as a selling point and announce the opening date to the public. Even Duke of Qin said that it was good to eat it. I think there will be countless people attending the banquet. "
Du Qi shook his head and said, "This is not enough!"
Jin Wuque said, "Young Master, what instructions do you have?"
Although Jin Wuque specialized in doing business, he was a businessman. However, he admired Du Qi's business acumen. Because the tea shop today had proven everything.
The tea leaves had spread throughout the whole of Chang 'an, and even the whole of Guanzhong. The tea leaves of the Number One Tea in the World had become popular all over the country. Countless merchants came to Chang 'an to buy them in bulk. The sales of the tea leaves were increasing day by day.
Du Qi thought for a while and said, "The opening date is set to the sixth of May. There is still some time before the opening date of the restaurant. During this time, arrange for people to distribute flyers throughout Chang 'an City. Make sure all the people of Chang' an know about the opening of the restaurant. "
Jin Wuque said, "Young Master, don't worry. I promise to do this well."
Du Qi continued, "Apart from the fact that the restaurant was personally inscribed by the King of Qin, we also need to inform the people of Chang 'an on the flyer that on the sixth day of the fifth lunar month, the restaurant will specially place some food outside the restaurant for the people to try."
"Ah!"
Jin Wuque exclaimed with a shocked expression. He said in a low voice, "I can roughly understand Young Master's plan. Let the people have a taste of the restaurant's food through the food tasting.
After all, the food in the restaurant is the most important. Taste is the most important.
If there is no taste, everything will be useless. However, I think that the food of the restaurant is enough to conquer the people. Therefore, there is no need to launch a food tasting event.
On one hand, this will waste a lot of food. On the other hand, there will be countless people coming. I am afraid that it will not be enough. Therefore, I do not recommend this. "
Jin Wuque suggested.
Du Qi waved his sleeves and said seriously, "Making money in business is about giving up and giving up. Although the food tasting will use up a lot of food. But the promotion of the restaurant is also real. "
Through the food tasting, everyone will know the situation of the Number One Tea in the World restaurant. This way, it will make people's eyes light up and conquer the people.
Therefore, when it is time to act, we cannot be soft-hearted.
When the people of Chang 'an have a taste of the restaurant's food, they will definitely flood in. "
Du Qi spoke frankly and with assurance. He continued confidently, "On the first day of the restaurant's operation, single people will be allowed to enter and order food. From the second day onwards, we will only accept orders for banquets.
No matter how many people there are, it must be a banquet.
Those with more people will be in the main hall on the ground floor. Those with fewer people will be in the private rooms on the second floor. We will no longer care about the single person cooking. We are doing this to build up the restaurant's reputation. "
Du Qi said, "When the restaurant's reputation is known, we will be able to relax."
After Jin Wuque heard this, he thought carefully for a while and said, "Young Master is right. I will immediately make arrangements for Young Master's arrangement. I will let the whole city know about this. "
"That's good!"
Du Qi smiled and said, "Apart from this, do you have anything else?"
Jin Wuque paused for a while and said, "Speaking of which, there is still one thing that has not been settled."
Du Qi said, "Just say it!"
Jin Wuque said seriously, "Young Master, you mentioned that the restaurant will use retired soldiers. As for the arrangement of these people, I do not know how to arrange them. Furthermore, we do not have the personnel. Therefore, I would like to ask Young Master to arrange this time. "
"Oh, I almost forgot."
Du Qi put his hand to his forehead and said, "I will arrange this as soon as possible."
For the veterans who retired after being injured, Du Qi said in front of Li Shimin that he wanted to use them. Although Li Shimin was not in Chang 'an now, this matter had to be arranged properly.
Otherwise, when Li Shimin returned victorious, he would not be able to answer to Li Shimin.
Du Qi ordered, "Continue with the promotion of the restaurant, as well as the subsequent decorations and adjustments. Find out what is missing and make up for it. Do not mess up. As for the arrangements for the retired soldiers, I have my own plans. "
Jin Wuque said, "Yes!"
After a pause, Jin Wuque said seriously, "Is Young Master's plan to let these retired soldiers be the waiters of the restaurant and let them participate?"
Du Qi shook his head and said, "There is someone else who will be the waiters of the restaurant. I will also make proper arrangements for this matter. In short, you take care of the promotion. "
"Yes!"
Seeing this, Jin Wuque did not say anything more.
He did not waste any time and immediately left to busy himself with the matters at hand.
