Chapter 521 Old Man Wang invites us to dinner
Since the matter has been discussed, the next thing is to decorate the store, but thanks to the opening of a barbecue restaurant, as long as the meat is delicious and the signature is enough. And I advocate takeaway, so the interior decoration is simpler.
Wang Wuliang and Xiaodouzi had no objection to my plan, but Mr. Wang had run a medicinal material store and was quite familiar with this area, so it is recommended that we should decorate it, as for the decoration cost, he can pay.
Since that's the case, I'm too lazy to pay attention to it anymore, as long as I don't let me pay.
Before I knew it, the sun had risen to noon and it was already lunch time. Old Man Wang would also serve guests, and called us to find a restaurant for a meal. It was to celebrate his investment. I did not refuse. I pulled Situ Hong and called Wang Wu and Mo Lu and two little girls, closed the store door and followed Old Man Wang and walked towards the market.
A few of us followed Old Man Wang and walked around the market. Soon we arrived at the door of a hotel that looked a few luxurious. The two wooden doors of the hotel were nearly three meters high, and there were two huge red lanterns hanging on both sides of the wooden doors. However, it was Bai Yueli. The lanterns were not lit with candles, but they were still swaying slightly in the slight wind. A large red sign that was more than half a person tall and about two meters long was hung in the middle. The sign was written with three big words: Xiankeju.
I looked at the hotel in front of me and couldn't help but take a deep breath. Oh my god, the size of this hotel is comparable to the five-star hotel I had before traveling through time. Judging from this posture, I guess there is even a presidential suite in this hotel.
"Young Master Bi, please come in." Old Man Wang stopped as soon as he walked to the hotel door, turned around and made a gesture to us.
I nodded, walked into the door of this big hotel. Situ Hong, Mo Lu and others beside me did not hesitate, followed me and walked in.
As soon as I walked into this hotel, I was shocked. Oh my god, this is really a five-star hotel!
The hall was wide and lively, with the wooden tables filled with diners, each table was filled with various dishes and aged wine. The fragrance of wine overflowed and made people scream. Several waiters in clean and coarse cloth were busy, and the carved beams and pillars in the hall were not stained with dust, and they looked so comfortable.
"Mr. Wang, this hotel..." I turned my head and looked at Old Man Wang with a smile beside me with a little surprised.
"Oh, this restaurant is owned by an old friend of me. Please rest assured Mr. Bi." Old Man Wang replied with a smile.
An old friend of Old Man Wang can open such a big hotel in Beijing. I think Old Man Wang’s medicinal materials business should be quite small. I’ll see Chen Bo tomorrow. I have to ask him carefully, is this medicinal materials business particularly profitable? Otherwise, I wouldn’t just work as a civil servant and change my career to open a medicinal material shop!
As soon as Old Man Wang finished speaking, he saw a waiter wearing a coarse cloth clothes and a square hat running over. There was a white towel on his shoulder. It could be seen that this was what he used to wipe the table.
The waiter rushed to the front, looked at the few of us, then turned to look at the old man Wang beside him, bowed with a smile and asked, "Mr. Wang, you are here, what do you want to eat today?"
"Today I just brought my friends here for lunch. Just bring your specialty dishes here!" Old Man Wang said casually.
"Okay, Mr. Wang, several guest officials, please invite you upstairs, and the shopkeeper left a elegant seat upstairs." The waiter said, turning around and leading us upstairs.
The lobby of the first floor of the Xianke House looks extremely vast. Although it is full of wooden tables, each wooden table is filled with bustling diners, which looks very lively. I originally thought that the second floor would be smaller than the first floor, but when we followed the waiter to the second floor and found that although the second floor was separated into a small room, there were bursts of shouting from each room from time to time. It was obvious that people were eating and drinking very happily.
The waiter didn't say much. After turning the private room at the corner, he stopped in front of the small room facing the stairs upstairs. Then he pushed the door of the small room open with a light push. Suddenly, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Master Wang, please wait in this private room, and the food will be brought soon." After that, the waiter turned around and left.
As soon as the waiter left, Old Man Wang led us into this elegant room. As soon as I walked in, I saw that the small private room was arranged very elegantly. Facing the door was a wooden window. Outside the wooden window was facing the bustling street market, you could see shops selling on both sides of the street. On both sides of the private room were landscape paintings left by someone, and on the roof were four small light pink lanterns. It could be seen that the private room should be very bright at night. There was a large wooden table in the center of the private room, and the wooden table seemed extremely simple and had nothing.
We were not polite, and as soon as we walked into the private room, we sat down. Soon the waiter turned around and walked back. There was a big teapot in our hand, and seven or eight green tea cups were brought in the other hand. As soon as we entered the private room, we filled us with tea. Looking at the tea cups filled with light yellow tea, there was a faint white mist on the tea. In just a moment, this small private room was filled with a faint fragrance of tea that made people calm down.
"Hahaha..., everyone, although this Xiankejujube is owned by my old friend, outsiders think it is based on the name of food, in fact, the tea in Xiankejube is the best!" Old Man Wang said without hesitation, and raised his hand and brought the tea fragrance in front of him, and then gently sucked it on his lips.
This tea tasting is different from wine tasting. The real wine tasting is to contain the faint wine in the mouth, turn it around on the tongue coating, and then swallow it slowly. The taste buds can fully feel the fragrance and taste of the wine, especially for tasting red wine. Tea tasting is different from wine tasting. Tea tasting only requires the tea to touch the tip of the tongue from the lips, and then swallow it slowly along the tongue coating to the throat, like a thin stream. The fragrance of the tea will naturally spread in the mouth, allowing the whole body to feel the fragrance of the tea.
At this time, when I saw Old Man Wang tasting tea like this, I was definitely a master of tea tasting. For a moment, I wondered if he had also traveled through time?!
I raised my hand and picked up the teacup in front of me. I took a sip of it as he did. The warm tea flowed into my throat with the tip of my tongue. The faint refreshing fragrance seemed to come alive and flowed down my throat.
It's indeed a good tea.
Mo Lu and the others sitting beside her were different. Mo Lu was a master of sword making and a person who had seen the world. The tea tasting method was similar to that of Old Man Wang in front of her. Situ Hong grew up in a wealthy family since she was a child, and it was even more difficult to taste tea. Xiao Douzi and Yue'er, who were sitting beside her, carefully imitated her appearance and drank the cup of tea in small sips. However, for Wang Wu and his wife, the way of drinking the red fox was completely like drinking wine. He drank the cup of tea in one sip, and Wang Wu was even more generous. Not only did he drink the cup of tea in one sip, but he also served the teapot and poured a full cup, which was definitely like a cow drinking water!
Now I finally know what "Cow Chews Peony" means!
Mo Lu Youyou drank all the tea in his hand, looked up at Old Man Wang and said slowly with a smile on his face: "I have always heard that there is a medicine king in this capital, and it should be Mr. Wang!"
"Hahahaha..., it's all my old friends who are loving me. I gave this title to me. It's not worth mentioning or not!" When Old Man Wang heard Mo Lu say this, he immediately raised his hand and waved it slightly, with a somewhat proud look.
I turned my head to look at Mo Lu beside me, and asked in surprise: "The King of Medicine..."
When Mo Lu saw me looking at him, he explained, "Ruhua said that there is a medicine king in this capital. The herbs he sells are unmatched in the capital, especially in the palace, even the emperor praised them!"
I listened to his words and couldn't help but nodded, and then I looked at the old man Wang in front of me seriously. Oh my god, it turns out that this is still a low-key rich man!
