Chapter 362
You must know that in the early days of the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, it was still a question whether those small wealthy families with some land or shops could earn five guan of money a month. There was so much money to be made just by being a helper, but it would definitely be impossible for others.
Even if you ask for it, you won't get it.
But for Li Rui, there's no telling what he would do if he worked to earn money to support his mother and take care of his younger brothers and sisters. But he shouldn't be able to earn money but not be able to take it. Otherwise, why would he have to do this kind of job?
"Too high? I'm new here and don't know the market. Please tell me a suitable price." Li Anran was not surprised that the other party would have such a reaction. He didn't think this answer was pedantic. He could only say that the other party had his own reasons.
principles and persistence.
Faced with the problem of being kicked back to the front, Li Rui didn't think too much and gave the price of the same amount of money. Calculated on average, it was a little more than 30 yuan a day. Although this price was not worth the price of Quanzhou City,
The lowest among them, but definitely not high.
Faced with a price that was obviously lowered on purpose, Li Anran, who knew the family's thoughts very well, did not forcefully increase the price, but readily agreed, and then asked Li Rui to lead everyone to Quanzhou.
Rush to the best restaurant.
As a group of people rushed towards the restaurant, Li Rui, who quickly got into work mode, immediately acted as a commentator and talked about some of Quanzhou's scenic spots, local specialties and other related content, with special emphasis on
About shipping.
While listening to the other party's explanation, Li Anran saw that the master's face showed a look of hesitation that he wanted to say several times. It was obvious that he had something to say but didn't say it. However, he didn't take the initiative.
Open your mouth and pretend you didn't notice it at all.
After a group of people arrived at this restaurant, which is said to be the best restaurant in Quanzhou, Li Anran, who got off the car, was attracted at first sight by the words "Seafood Restaurant" on the horizontal plaque hanging on the door of the restaurant.
I can't help it, the writing is really good.
Li Anran was forced to practice calligraphy by his grandfather Li Guizhen when he was a child. Although he didn't pay much attention to this skill, after practicing for many years, he not only formed a habit, but also gained a certain understanding of the field of calligraphy.
Appreciation ability.
And the three words on this restaurant are, to be honest, much better than all the words Li Anran has seen since traveling to the time and space of the Tang Dynasty. However, I don’t know why these three words
There was a vaguely familiar atmosphere.
Before Li Anran could tell where he had seen this word in detail, a neatly dressed shop waiter came out to greet him. He showed eight teeth and asked with a smile that made people feel comfortable: "Is this
Sir, do you want to eat or stay in a hotel?"
"Eat." Li Anran, who had no intention of staying here at all, said after retracting his eyes from reading.
"Okay, sir." The waiter, who still had a smile on his face, suddenly pointed to Li Rui beside him and asked: "Customers, please tell me who this is..."
"Huh? He is the helper I hired. What's wrong?" Li Anran, who was about to walk in, turned around and said.
"Sir, please explain the store's rules. Anyone with disheveled clothes is not allowed to enter." The waiter explained with a smile.
"Oh? There is such a rule?" Li Anran was stunned for a moment, looked up and down at the waiter in front of him, and then said with a smile: "I wonder if you can bring food and wine in from outside in this seafood restaurant?"
"As far as I'm concerned, this really won't work." The waiter shook his head and said.
"Li Langjun, don't embarrass the waiter. This is the rule of the seafood restaurant. Langjun doesn't need to pay attention to Li Rui. Just go in by yourself. Li Rui will be waiting outside." Li Rui, who was standing aside, was afraid of causing any misunderstanding and hurriedly He walked forward and explained.
"Haha... It's so rare that there are such rules." If it weren't for the classic style of the waiter and the seafood restaurant in front of him, Li Anran would even have the feeling that he had returned to modern time and space and was dining in a large hotel. .
"Okay, you are also following orders, and I won't make it difficult for you." At this point, Li Anran paused, and then asked: "Isn't the rule in your store that those with disheveled clothes are not allowed to enter?"
"Thank you for your understanding, sir." The waiter bowed quickly, nodded and said, "Sir, you are right."
"In that case, all it takes is a change of clothes." At this point, Li Anran turned to Su Xiaomei, who was standing aside, disguised as a man and transformed into a little bookboy and swordsman, and said: "Give him some money and let him find a place. Come here and change into clothes that meet the requirements here."
"Yes, young master." Su Xiaomei, who was holding her young master's long sword, now had a free hand to take out a silver peanut from her purse and handed it out, saying, "Li Langjun, do you have enough money? ?”
After seeing this, if Li Rui still doesn't understand what's going on, all those years of reading will be in vain.
"Don't refuse. I'm not changing your clothes out of pity. I just want to listen to what you have to say while eating." Li Anran, who knew that ancient literati were indeed pedantic at times, didn't want his good intentions to be misunderstood. He said immediately.
"Thank you, Li Rui will come back soon!" After observing the etiquette of a scholar, Li Rui had no intention of refusing. He took the silver peanut and walked towards a clothing store at the entrance of the alley where he came from.
"Okay, don't just stand there stupidly, come to a private room." Looking at the patched clothes but still upright back, Li Anran nodded secretly, then turned to the waiter and said.
"Okay, Sir, please come upstairs!" Seeing that the matter would be successfully concluded, the waiter nodded and bowed in a gesture of invitation.
As for the carriage, Li Anran had no intention of leaving it to this seafood restaurant. Not to mention the value of the carriage itself, just the two batches of top-quality draft horses that had traveled through time and space could not be bought with money. You can rest assured if you take care of Kunlun slave.
The waiter had no objection at all to such an arrangement. After all, those who could come to the seafood restaurant to eat were either rich or expensive, so it was normal to be a little particular about it. What’s more, with his ability to receive customers all year round, he could tell at a glance that the two horses were indeed Extraordinary.
After the waiter finished his work and returned downstairs, he took the time to go to the back of the restaurant to inquire about it, and then he realized that he had underestimated him. To say that such good horses are not uncommon in seafood restaurants, even the best horses are just fed some concentrated feed. That's all.
But this one is so good, not only the obviously unusual fresh forage, but also a large amount of crystal white rice. Not to mention, in addition to rice and forage, the current draft horse actually fed a lot eggs and some kind of red stick.
Eggs are a good thing that many people are reluctant to eat these days. They are now used to feed horses! And the red stick-shaped thing that I don’t know what it is is obviously a vegetable or fruit.
.
Didn't you see that the big black Kunlun slave was holding one in his hand and gnawing happily when he was feeding the horse? Although I didn't know what it felt like, but just because I had never seen this before, it made me wonder.
It can be seen that this thing is probably not cheap.
After being sent to a private room by the waiter, and after ordering a table of seafood restaurant's licensed dishes at his suggestion, I naturally didn't know that the waiter actually paid attention to the feed he fed to the horse.
I have to admit that although the requirements for the seafood restaurant are a bit more, the environment here is indeed very good. And the food is served very quickly. After ordering here, the cold dishes are served first.
What surprised Li Anran the most was that the layout of this seafood restaurant was not in the traditional style of the Tang Dynasty. Even the traditional low tables and cushions were not used, but round tables and high-backed wooden tables were placed.
chair.
Li Anran was surprised by this, but he didn't take it too seriously. After all, because of his appearance, dining tables and chairs had already become popular in Chang'an City, from the emperor to the common people.
I like them all very much.
In addition to tables and chairs, this seafood restaurant actually also has stir-fry dishes. Even the menu, which guests who like quietness can browse by themselves, has been borrowed. This situation made Li Anran very angry with the owner of this restaurant.
Become curious.
