Chapter 475: Going to the restaurant for dinner
He took Zhou Su's hand and walked in, and said to the eager shopkeeper, "I have already taken all the goods to the back door. Shall we go and take a look?"
The shopkeeper nodded happily, "Okay, I'll go take a look at this batch of goods."
The back door of Fumanlou.
Baskets of pine mushrooms were carried out of the car one by one and placed on the ground at the back door.
The shopkeeper checked the baskets one by one, picked up a few from the bottom of the middle, and was very satisfied to see that they were all of this quality. He turned around and asked, "I wonder what this method you mentioned to preserve fresh mushrooms for a long time?"
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "This method is not that simple to explain. I am afraid it will be difficult to explain it in a short time. Let's weigh these fungi first and then talk about it slowly, shall we?"
After all, he had been the shopkeeper for many years, so he still had some sense. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's talk slowly after we have eaten and drunk our fill. I'll ask them to prepare two tables of delicious food for us. Just wait."
Zhou Guo nodded. She had several ways to preserve pine mushrooms, some good and some bad. It all depended on whether the shopkeeper knew how to do it. If he did, they could be preserved for more than a year. If he didn't, they could only be preserved for a few months. At worst, they could still be preserved for ten days or half a month.
She turned her head and whispered to Hu Zi, "Send two people to the market to help. Come back soon after they are done. There will be delicious food."
Hu Zi nodded excitedly, "Okay, I'll send someone right away."
He had never eaten in such a big restaurant before, and he had no idea how delicious the food inside would be. He got excited just thinking about it.
Zhou Su was also very excited. The biggest restaurant he had been to before was the one in the small alley where he went after selling mushrooms in Yunzhou. The food there was already delicious. He didn't know how delicious the food would be in such a big restaurant. He held Zhou Guo's hand and trembled slightly with excitement.
Zhou Guo squeezed his little hand.
But they only went there for a while, and then everyone came. The person who was sent laughed and said, "We met them halfway, and they had already sold out."
Zhou Cheng smiled and said, "They are all sold out. They are selling very well. When those people saw that we only had two baskets, you had five catties and I had four catties, more than a dozen people divided them up in a short while. Your method is really effective. I think we can try this in our county next time. This time we will definitely be able to sell them out."
Zhou Guo was also happy for them. Being able to eat dishes cooked by the chef of a big restaurant was not something that anyone could have. Even if she wanted to eat it, she had to be careful about the money in her bag.
When the shopkeeper came out, he was stunned to see a few more people around her.
Zhou Guo introduced: "This is my uncle, Uncle Cheng and Uncle Shan. This is the owner of Fu Man Lou."
The two of them hurriedly bowed and said, "Hello, shopkeeper!"
The shopkeeper smiled and bowed, saying, "I don't deserve it."
He looked at the two of them again and saw that they were both in their twenties or thirties, but it was the young lady who negotiated the whole deal with him. It seemed that this young lady was no ordinary person and was someone who could make the decision.
The largest private room on the second floor of Fumanlou has two tables.
All the special dishes in the building are available.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "These are some of our signature dishes. The taste is just OK and not too bad to swallow. Miss, would you like to try some?"
Zhou Guo looked at the table of exquisite delicacies and said with a smile: "Boss, you are joking. We are all country folks, and we are used to eating simple meals. For us, this table of delicious food is something we dare not even think about on weekdays. We have never eaten anything good. If we lose our composure when eating later, please don't laugh at us."
The shopkeeper was stunned by her straightforwardness, then he burst into laughter and patted the table, saying, "You little girl, although you are young, you speak like a heroic man. Come, eat!"
They both picked up their chopsticks, and Zhou Guo nodded to everyone imperceptibly.
Everyone buried their heads in their food. After all, the host had already said it. If they ate in a hesitant manner, wouldn't that be too unfair to her efforts?
Those who sat at the same table with Zhou Guo and the shopkeeper were still a little hesitant, but those who sat alone at another table were not so hesitant. The chicken was gone from the plate in the blink of an eye, leaving only the sheen of oil on the plate.
The shopkeeper was well prepared, but when he saw how these people ate, the corners of his mouth twitched. He waved his hand and said, "Everyone, eat as much as you want. When you're done, continue."
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Why don't you thank Shopkeeper Qin?"
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Qin!!"
The boys' voices were so loud that they almost shook the roof off.
Shopkeeper Qin narrowed his eyes and said, "No thanks, everyone, please enjoy your meal."
Everyone was eating happily. Zhou Suli's eyes were shining and his mouth was drooling. Seeing that his sister had been talking to Shopkeeper Qin and had no time to eat, he stood on tiptoe to pick up dishes and piled them into her bowl, piling whatever was delicious.
When Zhou Guo finished speaking and turned around, she saw that her bowls had piled up like a mountain.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Your brother is worried about you. Please eat quickly. We can talk about anything after we finish eating."
Zhou Guo was not polite. They had not had breakfast yet, so they started eating one by one, eating quickly and steadily.
The shopkeeper saw how she ate, looking unhappy and elegant, but in the blink of an eye, one bowl of rice was gone and he had to add another one.
Then, I just watched her add bowl after bowl.
The shopkeeper's jaw nearly dropped. He couldn't help but look at her belly. It seemed flat and not bulging. How could it hold so much food? Where did she eat?
Hu Zi and his group were no longer surprised. After all, they had eaten two meals together with her, so they had an idea of her appetite.
The food on the table was cleared away after being eaten and eaten again.
Zhou Guo himself didn't know how many bowls of rice he had eaten. After he was finally full, he said to the numb Shopkeeper Qin, "Shopkeeper Qin, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but the food in your restaurant is so delicious that I couldn't help but eat a little more."
Shopkeeper Qin nodded with a wooden face, thinking to himself, you didn't just eat more, you ate a whole table by yourself!
After the meal, the waiter cleared the table. Shopkeeper Qin said hello and got up to go out. Not long after, he came back, followed by a young man holding a wooden tray with a writing brush, inkstone, and two documents with densely written words on them.
"My dear, this is a big deal anyway. Although pine mushrooms are seasonal and there is only half a month left, I think we should still sign a document."
As he spoke, he picked up the document, not knowing who to show it to.
Zhou Guo nodded and said, "Boss, give it to me."
Reach out for it.
The shopkeeper was surprised to see that she could read at such a young age, and couldn't help but ask, "I didn't expect that the young lady could read. Is your family a scholarly family?"
Zhou Guo looked at them and shook his head, "No, it's just that our two older brothers went to school, so we also recognized two, not many."
