The young man is handsome, a good businessman, and has a good impression of Jiang Yunzhu.
But what can I do
Jiang Yunzhu declined and left with her people.
"Ah!" Boss Luo was heartbroken, watching a golden phoenix fly away. Missing a good opportunity was more painful than not meeting it at all. Thinking of this, he glanced at the young man, blaming him for not living up to expectations.
The young man touched his nose. What did this have to do with him? He had tried his best to show off, but people looked down on him. What could he do
When Boss Luo and his son came over, Xue Jing and others were there.
After leaving Luo's house, Xue Jing looked at Jiang Yunzhu quietly and worried about her. In fact, he thought that Boss Luo's son was a good person. Boss Luo also climbed up from the bottom, and his experience was similar to Jiang Yunzhu's. If Jiang Yunzhu married into his family, the Luo family would only treat her well.
Of course, he also knew why Jiang Yunzhu didn't agree. That Mr. Shen... he was indeed good-looking.
Xue Jing felt that his limited brain was not enough to think about these things, so he thought for a while and then let it go. He believed in Jiang Yunzhu.
Unlike him, Jin Jiaoyue and others were worried about their Governor Shen. Governor Shen was always so cold, how could he win the beauty? What if Jiang Yunzhu liked someone else... They didn't dare to think about it, nor did they want to think about it.
Everyone returned to the Shiguang Restaurant, which was crowded with people. After Mr. Bai and his companions returned home, some found the invitation, some did not, and some were shocked to find that someone had bought the invitation before them.
Everyone was doing business, and they immediately thought of a lot of things. They quickly sent people to the Time Restaurant. Some wanted to invite Jiang Yunzhu to their house for a banquet, some wanted to directly dig Jiang Yunzhu to their house, and some simply wanted to eat the food cooked by Jiang Yunzhu. With so many people, it became noisy.
Jiang Yunzhu had been busy all day and was very tired. "I leave it to you," she said to Jin Jiaoyue.
Jin Jiaoyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, boss." She loved doing this kind of thing the most.
Jiang Yunzhu went back to her room through the side door to rest, while Jin Jiaoyue raised her chin slightly and walked towards the people in front of the door.
Someone immediately recognized her as the person who sent the invitation and gathered around her.
"I'm the owner of the Shiguang Private Restaurant. If you have any problems, you can tell me." Jin Jiaoyue stood on the stairs in front of the restaurant, looking down at everyone.
No one thought there was anything wrong and started asking questions immediately.
"Is the banquet for Mr. Luo's family hosted by your restaurant?" someone asked.
Jin Jiaoyue nodded.
Everyone was like going crazy, really.
"Our master would like to invite you to hold a banquet at his house." Someone said first.
"Sorry, our restaurant is not accepting banquets now."
"Why don't you answer? Aren't we going to Boss Luo's house to do it today? No matter how much Boss Luo pays, our master will pay double." The man who looked like a butler snorted angrily.
"Our master means the same thing. He offers three times the price." Someone nearby said in a rich and powerful tone.
"Our master will pay four times as much."
These people almost got into a fight.
Jin Jiaoyue didn't even look at them and answered other people's questions.
"Our master wants to meet the owner of your restaurant." said the man.
"Sorry, our boss doesn't see outsiders." Jin Jiaoyue replied.
"Do you know who our master is?" the man asked angrily. Their master's surname is Bai.
Jin Jiaoyue almost rolled her eyes. Who cares who he is? Can he withstand a blow from her? If he can, come on.
She looked at the person next to her again.
"When does your restaurant open? Our master wants to come over for dinner." the man asked.
Everyone quieted down.
"We open at noon and evening every day. The daily menu is decided by the owner. We serve twelve tables of guests at noon and in the evening. Reservations can be made three days in advance." Jin Jiaoyue said.
"I want to make a reservation." "I want to make a reservation." "I want to make a reservation too." Everyone said hurriedly.
Soon, all the reservations for three days were fully booked, and many people still hadn't reserved a seat.
Someone asked, "With the invitation, can you come to eat anytime?"
"Yes." Jin Jiaoyue replied.
The families who received the invitations were extremely happy. They were about to say that their masters would take the invitations to dinner, but they heard Jin Jiaoyue say slowly, "Think carefully about the guests. The invitations can only be used once."
Those who had invitations remained silent. They could only use them once, and of course, they had to wait until the critical moment.
At noon the next day, the first wave of reserved guests came to the Shiguang Restaurant for dinner.
The menu prepared by Jiang Yunzhu today still has ten dishes, including Taibai duck, Luoyang bird's nest, fish fillet in milk sauce, eight-treasure rabbit cubes, etc. Among the ten dishes, seven are simply not available for people to eat outside.
And today she mixed a new wine called Piaopiao. This wine seemed to have balls of green light floating on the surface of the cup. After drinking it, it was fascinating.
It seems that the chef of this Shiguang Restaurant is indeed the one who helps Boss Luo to organize banquets. The Taibai duck and Luoyang bird's nest he makes, no, all the dishes he makes are excellent. And this wine, I really didn't know, he has several new kinds of wine.
Guests who have eaten here wish they could live in the restaurant permanently, enjoying the restaurant's delicious food and drinking fine wine every day.
Unfortunately, it’s not possible because they didn’t reserve the seats at the back.
"Keep an eye on it and make sure to book it for me." Everyone instructed the butler.
The housekeepers are miserable. They also want to make a reservation, but it is very difficult.
Overnight, Shiguang Private Restaurant became extremely popular.
In two days, the wealthy merchants in the capital will not hold banquets. What's the point of holding banquets? No matter how good their chefs are, can they be as good as the chefs of the Shiguang Private Restaurant
If you can't compare with others, why hold a banquet
If you really want to entertain everyone, you might as well reserve a table at the Time Restaurant and then invite them over, which would be more prestigious.
The invitations that Jin Jiaoyue sent out at that time also became the new favorite of wealthy businessmen. It is said that now a single invitation is sold at a high price of one thousand and two taels of silver.
Then, everyone was very angry with Jing Chengyan because he bought their invitations.
Jing Chengyan didn't care at all. The Jing family was one of the most wealthy businessmen, and he was not afraid of them. In fact, his father had praised him a few days ago! This was the first time his father had praised him this year.
However, you can praise him, but you can't take the opportunity to ask for an invitation from him.
The Time Restaurant became popular among wealthy businessmen, and gradually more people got to know about this restaurant.
Mrs. Yang had something to do these days and couldn't come to Shiguang Restaurant, and she was always thinking about it. One day, she brought her two children to the restaurant, but was told that there were no seats left
"What's going on?" she asked.
Jin Jiaoyue was a little confused and explained the restaurant's rules to Mrs. Yang.
"Reservations must be made three days in advance." Mrs. Yang was a little disappointed. Does that mean that she won't be able to eat the restaurant's dishes until three days in advance at the earliest
"Mom." The little girl next to her tugged at her hand and looked at her eagerly. She wanted to eat the delicious food inside.
Mrs. Yang stood there, hesitating. If she revealed her identity, the restaurant owner would probably receive her. But it didn't seem worth it just for a meal. If it got out, it would seem like she was bullying others by taking advantage of her power.
At this time, Jin Jiaoyue next to her was also hesitating whether to tell Jiang Yunzhu about this.
Jiang Yunzhu seemed to have a very good relationship with their deputy commander. If she knew that Madam Yang was coming, she would probably let her stay.
Just then, a young man in brocade clothes walked in with several yamen runners.
The young man in brocade clothes saw Jin Jiaoyue, sneered, and came over with his men.
Jin Jiaoyue remembered him. That day, a wealthy businessman named Qin invited him to dinner. After he ate the food in the restaurant, he praised it repeatedly. The next day, he came to the restaurant again and wanted to eat.
But there was no room left in the store, so the young man in brocade clothes revealed his identity. It turned out that his surname was Liang, and he was the son of the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture.
The Jingzhao prefect is in charge of the affairs inside and outside the capital. If it were a different store or a different shopkeeper, they would have to invite Mr. Liang to the store for dinner. But Jin Jiaoyue, the Jingzhao prefect, is that so powerful? It's his son's turn to bully others here.
She didn't give Mr. Liang any face at all.
Young Master Liang was angry, and when he returned he thought about how to let Jin Jiaoyue know how powerful he was.
So today he came with the yamen runners from Jingzhao Prefecture.
"The things in this store are not clean. Search it for me. If you find anything suspicious, bring it to me." Young Master Liang said in a domineering tone.
When the yamen runners heard this, they immediately picked up their knives and rushed to the back. No matter whether they could find anything suspicious or not, as long as they made such a fuss, the restaurant would not be able to do business. Then they would have to come to their own master for help.
The smile on Jin Jiaoyue’s face disappeared. They dare!
Thinking of this, she reached for the dagger at her waist.
Most of the Qilin Guards are good at using knives, but not all of them use long knives. For example, Jin Jiaoyue used to be a spy, and she used a short knife as long as a palm. This knife is completely black, without any shine, but it can cut iron like mud. When it is swung, the enemy may not even see what it is, and will be killed by the knife.
Jin Jiaoyue is no longer a spy, but the knife still follows her.
At this time, Zhan Changchuan held her arm and shook his head at her. They were no longer the Qilin Guards and could not use weapons without authorization. They should leave this matter to the Qilin Guards.
Young Master Liang holds no official position, but he mobilized the yamen runners of Jingzhao Prefecture without authorization and abused his power to bully others. This has violated the law, and I believe that the people of Qilin Guard will punish him.
Jin Jiaoyue bit her lip and felt a little regretful. As expected, she was too impulsive.
That's what they both thought, but in the eyes of Mr. Liang and Madam Yang, it was a different story.
Jin Jiaoyue looked aggrieved and helpless. Zhan Changchuan wanted to comfort her, but there was nothing he could do.
When Master Liang saw this, he became even more proud. If he had known this would happen, he would not have done it in the first place.
"Where's your restaurant owner? Ask her to come out and see me." He shouted. He had heard that the owner of this restaurant seemed to be a very beautiful girl, and today he was in a good mood, so it was a good opportunity to meet her.
As soon as he said this, even Zhan Changchuan wanted to draw his sword. How dare he have such an idea!
Madam Yang frowned beside her. She had a good impression of Jiang Yunzhu. She was generous and not arrogant. Moreover, it was not easy for a girl like her to open a restaurant in the capital.
This young man in brocade clothes is obviously a bully.
"Stop it." She said in a deep voice.
