V1.Chapter 106
Listening to what the shopkeeper Cui said, Tianxianglou seemed to be a business giant. Although he had always known that his uncle had done something in a restaurant in the capital, he did not expect it to be such a powerful restaurant.
And Manager Cui's mood at the moment was more shocking than Yu Wan's: "What? Master Yu did something in Tianxianglou?"
Yu Feng snorted: "I have been doing it for two years."
Every day, every day... God! They actually invited the chef of Tianxianglou to the White House as a banquet?
Shopkeeper Cui has been dizzy for a while now, okay?
The lady said that she spent five taels of silver to invite the Yu family to come over to make braised dishes. He also blamed the lady for asking too high a price. No matter how good a country cook is, one tael of silver is enough. Just a little force.
But at this time, when he heard about the identity of the chef of the Yu family, Shopkeeper Cui couldn't wait to kneel.
The chefs of Tianxianglou can't be hired without a hundred taels!
Of course Yu Wan didn't know the market of Master Tianxianglou, but she knew that in a previous life there was a great chef who cut ham for 300,000 yuan an hour, which is about 30 taels of silver. Chefs are welcome in any era.
If the Tianxianglou where the uncle once stayed was the business giant that Shopkeeper Cui said, then their tofu would have a gimmick that could blow up.
The tofu brewed by the chef of Tianxianglou...
Think about it, it's amazing!
Yu Wan's eyes were sparkling: "Brother, why don't we go to Tianxianglou and take a look."
"Now?" Yu Feng was taken aback.
Yu Wan nodded and weighed the jar in her hand: "It's better to hit the sun if you choose a day, not to mention, we also brought the ingredients."
This is too drastic and resolute, Yu Feng was a little stunned for a while, but the shopkeeper Cui said, "It just so happens that I'm going to the capital to find a young lady! Let's take you for a ride!"
Yu Wan: "..."
looking for a lady...
Why does this sound a little weird...
...
Tianxianglou is a hundred-year-old brand. It has only become a big thing in recent years. It is said that it has changed its owner, abandoned the stereotype, and began to operate on a large scale. The seven restaurants were news from a few years ago, and a few people came to Beijing. Later, he found a Tianxiang Building under decoration near the South City Gate.
"It's the eighth house." Shopkeeper Cui said enviously, his family's Baiyulou was not even qualified to be stationed in the capital.
On the carriage, shopkeeper Cui and his brother and sister said a lot of heartfelt words: "...you and my young lady are friends, I won't treat you as outsiders..."
He will never admit that he has been deeply bribed by Yu Wan's good tea and good calligraphy!
Through the explanation of shopkeeper Cui, Yu Wan had a new understanding of Da Zhou's catering industry for the first time.
It turned out that Mrs. Du had a high reputation among the people, but in the eyes of the real connoisseurs, she was not so highly regarded.
The reason why Madam Du is famous is first of all because she is a female cook, even though there are not many female cooks in modern times, not to mention that in ancient times, as long as Madam Du's cooking skills were not so bad that she couldn't speak, she would dare to be in the crowd of men. She deserves to be famous when she is in charge.
Secondly, Mrs. Du is a good-looking female cook. She is used to seeing cooks with fat heads and big ears and shiny faces. Goodbye Mrs. Du who is like a secluded orchid.
In the end, it is also a point that Shopkeeper Cui emphasized, that Mrs. Du's cooking skills are indeed very good.
"How tough? How is the ranking in Tianxianglou?" Yu Wan asked.
Shopkeeper Cui frowned and thought for a while: "So-so, can you make up eleven or twelve?"
Can't even squeeze into the top ten? !
Yu Wan became more and more interested in Tianxianglou, and the more she sold ingredients to this kind of place, the more fulfilled she felt, right?
Unlike Yu Wan's high ambitions, Yu Feng retreated a little, but once Yu Wan made up her mind, the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu couldn't be called back.
The main helm of Tianxianglou is on Chang'an Avenue, and they go to the branch on Xuanwu Street, which is more convenient to stop by the Baifu.
Shopkeeper Cui simply tried to be a good person to the end, and entered the Tianxiang Tower with them.
They were greeted by a young fellow.
Yu Wan and Yu Feng were dressed in shabby clothes, but Shopkeeper Cui was dressed in silk, wearing a jade ring, a gold pendant, and three words written all over his face: I am rich!
Yu Wan didn't rush to sell the ingredients, but first found a table in the lobby and sat down: "Little Er, what kind of dishes do you have here?"
Xiao Er reported the names of seven or eight dishes in one breath, and then put the small bamboo tube on the table in front of the three of them: "The dishes are all here."
This is the first time Yu Wan has seen a menu that looks like a signature, with the name of the dish on the front and the price on the back, which is quite ingenious.
"You can order whatever you want, and I'll be the host of this meal!" Shopkeeper Cui said generously.
Yu Wan originally thought that according to Yu Feng's temperament, she would definitely say "how to let shopkeeper Cui spend money", but she didn't wait for Yu Feng's reaction for a long time, and when she turned around, she saw that he was staring at the few dishes in his hand in a daze: "What's the matter, big brother?"
Yu Feng's face was full of disbelief: "These dishes..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a commotion outside the door.
Xiao Er turned his head and said in surprise, "Our chef is here!"
Yu Wan and the three followed the prestige, and saw that the guys who were still performing their duties were all gathered at the door at this moment, respectfully facing a handsome and suave middle-aged man.
The man's figure is slightly fat, but his temperament is outstanding and his complexion is excellent.
In Tianxianglou, the chefs who can afford to be called chefs are all chefs. It is no wonder that these guys worship him so much.
He stepped into the house, and walked towards his own house.
Yu Feng stood up in a daze: "...Uncle Yang?"
Yu Wan and Shopkeeper Cui were stunned for a moment, and Xiao Er was also stunned.
Who is this kid called?
Uncle Yang? Is it Chef Yang of their family?
Impossible!
The man seemed to hear the call, and after a pause, he looked towards Yu Feng.
Yu Feng saw that familiar face with a hint of strangeness: "Uncle Yang, it's really you..."
"You kid! Don't recognize relatives! This is Chef Yang of our Tianxianglou!" The guy in the crowd shouted angrily.
Chef Yang stared at Yu Feng for a while, his eyelashes trembled, and then strode forward, under the extremely surprised attention of everyone, he held Yu Feng's hand excitedly: "Is it your nephew? I haven't seen you for a few years, and I almost don't recognize you!"
Shopkeeper Cui looked confused, what's the situation? Did you eat a meal with relatives?
Yu Wan blinked and looked at Yu Feng.
Yu Feng's tense body relaxed after he recognized Chef Yang, and he introduced, "Uncle Yang, this is my sister Awan, and this is Uncle Cui."
With the sound of Uncle Cui, the shopkeeper Cui was stunned.
Chef Yang nodded sympathetically, without questioning the origins of Shopkeeper Cui, only his eyes fell on Yu Wan's face: "This is earlier..."
Yu Feng cleared his throat: "Yes, she went to my cousin's aunt's house."
"Ah." Chef Yang showed a sudden realization.
Yu Wan knew without guessing that the chef also knew about her disappearance.
Yu Feng looked at Yu Wan and said, "Awan, Uncle Yang is my father's friend. When my father broke his leg and had nowhere to go to the doctor, Uncle Yang asked the doctor to treat my father's injury. Otherwise, my father's leg might have been damaged. I can't keep it."
When Yu Feng said this, he never meant to blame Yu Wan, but simply told Yu Wan that when they were desperate, it was Chef Yang who helped them. However, the best time for treatment had been missed at that time, and the cure was impossible. Yes, but if it is not cured, the leg is very likely to be necrotic, and even amputated in the end.
Yu Wan didn't listen to Jiang's mention of this matter, maybe Jiang's didn't know about it, or maybe Jiang didn't want her to blame herself too much.
Yu Wan's back froze when she thought that her uncle was almost amputated.
Fortunately, she is here, she will definitely heal the uncle's leg!
Chef Yang took a few people to Tianxianglou and distributed them to him. The room where he rested on weekdays was decorated very elegantly, not like a bedroom, but like a scholar's study.
Chef Yang let Xiao Er soak in the first-class Longjing.
"Nephew, why did you go to Tianxianglou? Did you come to see me? How is your father's health?"
Chef Yang is very concerned.
Yu Wan was muttering in her heart, one son and nephew, one son and nephew, with such a deep relationship, why didn't he come to see them? It's fine on weekdays, and I haven't seen any movement during the New Year.
"Isn't it Shangyuan Festival tomorrow? I was talking about visiting your house." Chef Yang said to Yu Feng.
Yu Wan glanced at him.
Yu Feng said respectfully, "My father is in good health, and Uncle Yang has forgotten about it. You are so busy, you don't need to make a special trip."
Yu Wan has never seen Yu Feng speak to anyone so respectfully. It seems that he respects this Uncle Yang sincerely.
Chef Yang talked slowly: "Alas, a cook injured his hand a few years ago and can't work until now. I really can't get out of my body. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to wait until the Shangyuan Festival to see you."
"It's really not necessary, Uncle Yang, yes, Uncle Yang." Yu Feng suddenly remembered something.
"What's wrong?" Chef Yang looked at him suspiciously.
Yu Feng said puzzled: "I just looked at the menu of Tianxianglou and found that some dishes are very similar to what my father cooked."
Chef Yang was stunned for a while, then laughed: "Isn't the dishes all the same? The braised pork that we make in Tianxianglou, other restaurants will also do it!"
Yu Feng frowned and said, "Uncle Yang, you don't understand. Those dishes are not home-cooked dishes, but new dishes invented by my father. He hasn't cooked them outside yet."
