    Chapter 79 The new store has opened

    The decoration of the store is simple. In a few days, the large dining table and snack table customized according to the requirements will be placed on the camel hair mustard blanket; the wall shelves are also placed with flowers and plants, slender bamboo, curved pine pine, and crab claws. Chrysanthemums, etc., and some gadgets from the east and west cities; even all kinds of pots and pans in the kitchen, large and small cups, plates, spoons and chopsticks, roasted and steamed large pots and small stoves are also available. ——Only wait for the staff to be in place before opening.

    The Shao family has been in Chang'an for several generations, and they have been in business and familiar with the slave merchants. Shao Jie has since divided the work with Shen Shaoguang, and asked the slave merchants to buy reliable people. Of course, the chef is important here, but the more important thing is the "manager" - the so-called "store manager" in later generations.

    There is only one branch, Shen Shaoguang is busy, maybe he can take care of it, if there are more in the future, it will be impossible to have a clone. It's better to set the rules from the beginning.

    According to the size of the restaurant, each branch is assigned one steward, two running halls, one main and one auxiliary and two cooking chefs, which is almost the same. The old store in Chongxianfang, Shen Shaoguang is also equipped according to law.

    Shen Shaoguang had to figure out the "career direction" of the old people.

    A Yuan has been with him the longest, loves to eat, and has a somewhat stubborn temper. Shen Shaoguang asked her if she wanted to learn cooking from Saburo in a down-to-earth manner, or stay by her side. Ah Yuan didn't hesitate, "Of course she followed the little lady!"

    Considering her hobbies, Shen Shaoguang persuaded her, "You learn some cooking skills, will it be useful in the future?"

    Ah Yuan shook her head, "I'll follow the little lady."

    Shen Shaoguang was a little moved. For a foodie, he is willing to abandon the kitchen and follow himself... Anyway, run with himself, learn to treat others, take care of things, manage money and settle accounts, and he will be able to use it when he is in charge of the house in the future.

    Achang is easy to handle, he has no big ambitions, and has a good temperament.

    And Zhang Duo bought it just to follow him, and it didn't involve much work in the restaurant.

    The difficult thing is Princess Yu. The third princess Yu is good at cooking, smart, literate, but has a bad temper. If he wants to, there is no problem in running a small restaurant.

    Without raising his three heads, Yu gave the fish a diamond-shaped flower knife, "I'm the cook."

    Looking at his handsome profile, Shen Shaoguang opened his mouth and didn't say anything. What did the people in Wu Wangfu have experienced or seen? Whatever he likes.

    So in addition to assigning five people to the new branch, Shao Jie assigned a steward and two running halls to Shen Shaoguang's old store.

    At present, these people are all "trained" in Shenji in Chongxian Square.

    The manager of Qinrenfang's new store is named Xu Kai. He is 27 or 8 years old. He is well-mannered and speaks well. According to Yun, he used to be the second manager of a county magistrate's family. Official, in a fit of anger, he returned to his hometown to farm and study, and all the people who used to put up the show were sold, and Xu Kai was among them.

    The manager of the old store in Chongxianfang is named Chen Xing. He was in his early thirties. He used to manage the shop in a big tea shop. He was a kind of old-fashioned businessman. The old owner died of illness and his sons separated. , Chen Xing is also the one who was washed away.

    They are all people who can do things. Although they can't be considered extravagant, they don't need any talents to manage a small restaurant. Shen Shaoguang is very mediocre himself, so he is very satisfied with these two.

    There is also a new chef named Fan Dalang, but he is only 18 or 19 years old, but he has rich kitchen experience.

    The rest are trot halls of fifteen, sixteen, seventy-eight years old.

    The two stewards also had family members, and they were bought by Shao Jie together: "It's better to put it in the backyard for you to clean."

    When Shen Shaoguang saw it, they were two neat women with children, so he arranged them in the back house of the two stores - there is also a back house behind the new shop, five main rooms, east and west wing rooms, small rooms. In the courtyard, except for the two main houses and warehouses reserved for Shen Shaoguang, the rest are already full.

    After more than half a month of training and teaching, the new store opened at the end of August.

    As expected by Shen Shaoguang and Shao Jie, the business of the new store is very good.

    Shao Jie stood at the counter and watched the diners with Shen Shaoguang. He was quite proud when Emperor Taizong stood at the Duanmen and saw Xinke scholars come out and say "Heroes of the world, enter my room".

    Seeing Xiaopaotang carrying two plates of chrysanthemum fish, Shao Jie praised Shen Shaoguang: "The work of this little lady's mural is also!"

    Like the Chongxianfang store, the Qinrenfang store also has a large poem wall outside - in fact, it is larger than the poem wall of Chongxianfang, and it is used for poems by customers who have Yaxing.

    In this regard, Shao Jie agrees very much. After all, his friend Yang Jing can win Li Xiangqing's eyes because of this poem. It is a good thing for the hotel to get famous and famous because of the poem in the restaurant.

    Originally, Shao Jie thought that the poem wall would be useful only after the opening of the business, and the little lady would stand in front of the wall and "splash ink" three days before the opening.

    She painted sweet and sour chrysanthemum fish.

    This dish was eaten by Shao Jie in Chongxianfang. The fish was fried with a beautiful knife and poured with sweet and sour sauce. It was shaped like a chrysanthemum, sweet and sour and fragrant - chrysanthemum fish, in Sanqiu, it is indeed suitable as a signboard vegetable.

    Shen Shaoguang held the sample drawn in advance in his hand, and used a light charcoal pen to draw grids on the wall.

    "Is this afraid of being out of shape?" Shao Jie could guess even though he didn't know how to draw.

    Shen Shaoguang nodded, "I haven't painted a fish that is seven or eight feet long." He asked Shao Jie, "If you ride a horse through the street, you should be able to see it clearly even if you walk faster?"

    Shao Jie nodded deeply, "Don't worry, everyone walking on this street, except for the blind, knows that this restaurant sells chrysanthemum fish."

    As Shen Shaoguang sketched the draft, he said to Shao Jie, "Blind people don't need to worry. They have smart noses, and they are the ones who can smell the fragrance and get off the horse and know the smell of parking."

    "It's worth it, let's not let it go even if we are passing by?"

    "Of course! Except for those who have no money."

    The two laughed loudly, like a strongman who cut the diameter.

    The fish first tick the plain color draft, and then color it layer by layer. Just this fish, Shen Shaoguang dragged and drew for three days.

    After the color had changed, passersby kept coming to see it, and Shao Jie, who had also been here for the past few days, explained it on his behalf. Sweet and Sour Chrysanthemum Fish has made a splash with its artistic photos with exaggerated filters.

    Shao Jie sometimes went in to watch the cooks prepare ingredients, run the hall to clean, and sometimes came out to see Mrs. Shen who colored the paintings. She added some red to the golden fish, and she didn't know what she added to the color, but the red was shiny, as if it was really sweet and sour sauce.

    Shao Jie couldn't help swallowing, it was almost time for lunch.

    Seeing her coloring inch by inch, painting for a while, then putting down her arms and shaking her wrists, Shao Jie persuaded her, "It's too fine. In fact, the guests can't read it so carefully, it's more or less good."

    Shen Shaoguang shook his head, "It's not too thin. I've seen painting a bowl of rice, one grain of rice and one grain of rice." Shen Shaoguang was talking about her former colleague, who used PS to retouch and polish the rice advertisement, and Shen Shaoguang started I don't know what that piece of mosaic is, but it was only when it shrunk that I realized, oh, a grain of rice, and then shrink again, I rely on it, a bowl of rice! ①

    Shao Jie nodded, "If this fish doesn't sell seventy or eighty plates a day, I'll be sorry for your hard work."

    Shen Shaoguang turned his head and smiled: "Shao Langjun, you have to make sure that we have seventy or eighty fish to sell!"

    This is Shao Jie's pride, "Don't worry, I have contacted the biggest fishmonger in Chang'an City. As long as the sage in the palace has fish to eat, we will have fish to sell!"

    Shen Shaoguang gave him a colored thumb.

    By the afternoon of the third day, it will be opened tomorrow, and this large-scale sweet and sour chrysanthemum fish is painted. Shen Shaoguang's words are not like hers. She has more than vigor and lack of free and easy romance. Such style, engraving a chapter, writing an official document, etc., are all suitable, but writing this issue's advertising words...

    Shao Jie was almost paralyzed when he heard that she was going to title "Beautiful and Delicious".

    Shen Shaoguang was surprised, as for? You people of the Tang Dynasty are so open, not to mention the ditties sung by the prostitutes, the fragrant legends in the bookstores, the erotic palaces with amazing brains in the painting and calligraphy shops, these are the poems of the nobles in the DPRK, and even spread out The brush and ink of some ladies and gentlemen are much more than this. I am such an idiom that doesn't even count edge balls, isn't it?

    Shao Jie hurriedly waved his hand: "I didn't mean anything, just—" Shao Jie laughed again, "It's just too narrow."

    Shen Shaoguang felt that the people of the Tang Dynasty were well-informed in some aspects, but the laughter was a bit low.

    The more Shao Jie thought about it, the more he felt that these words were used well. What did the Master say when he taught the Book of Songs? "Happy but not promiscuous" - Shao Jie was surprised that he still remembered this sentence. This sentence "beautiful and delicious" fits the situation, it is narrow and interesting, with a bit of that meaning, but it makes people want to laugh when they see it, well, it's very good.

    Shen Shaoguang is still hesitating, what font should he use to write it? After some deliberation, the solemn and solemn Han Li was finally chosen.

    Although Shao Jie is not good at this, he also thinks that her choice is a bit - not so reasonable, maybe running script is better?

    However, when she finished writing, she looked at it carefully, and it seemed to be quite harmonious. The rich and noble chrysanthemum fish, the solemn and elegant Han Li, matched the meaning of the word...

    Shen Shaoguang also took a few steps back and looked at it carefully. This word matches this word, it feels like Lin Shaoyin is playing a hooligan in a serious manner.

    Shao Jie nodded: "It's like a dignified gentleman talking jokes, and there is a different kind of romance in it."

    Shen Shaoguang tilted his head to look at him, this look is too vicious!

    With such an absolutely eye-catching painting, the restaurant has opened, and customers are coming!

    Pei Fei and Princess Fuhui were angry, and they hadn't seen each other for many days. Today, when the day was over, Xinma walked to Qinren Square and saw this big fish and four big characters with a solemn and upright air. , Pochi laughed, who is this, so narrow!

    That's not right... That sign is Shen Ji! It's not another Shenji, it's Chongxianfang's Shenji. The characters are the same. Let's look at the words "beautiful and delicious". Although the font is different, the style of writing is similar. Ha, Mrs. Shen opened another restaurant here?

    Pei Fei walked in and looked at the layout to know that it was really a family.

    Pei Fei was particularly interested in the large table, sitting down, how free and easy, good!

    It's a pity that Mrs. Shen is not here, there is only a young person in charge.

    Looking through the refurbished recipe, Pei Fei finally found the reason for coming to Qinrenfang - Qinrenfang has Shen Ji.

    Pei Fei told Lin Yan the next day, and asked him to come to Qin Renfang's Shen Ji to try it out.

    The author has something to say: 1. Retouching the picture one grain of rice and one grain of rice This stalk is mentioned in the article "Utilize these little routines, customers can remember your restaurant" by a number called Huadian.com. (But I don't really know if the author is original).

    ————

    Lin Yan: Ah, our way of speaking is what the Master said, "pleasant but not promiscuous".

    Shen Shaoguang: Oh - not obscene...

    Lin Yan cleared his throat and said with a smile, "Actually, can't listen to all the Master's words.

    (Small theaters are purely entertainment, and "happy but not promiscuous" is generally interpreted as happy but not excessive.)
