Return to 1988: Beginning with a marriage robbery, the rich are soaring

Liang Baikai flipped through the menu and turned to the waiter: "What are your specialties and signature dishes?"

The waiter said proudly: "Sir, our signature dish here is of course Jiangcheng fish. At that time, the great man came here and ate the steamed Jiangcheng fish made by Master Yang, and wrote a poem for Master Yang."

"That's the one who drinks the water from the Xiangjiang River and eats the fish from the Jiangcheng River!"

Of course Liang Baikai knew about this, and it was even published in newspapers at that time. It was written by the great man after he ate Jiangcheng fish after swimming in the Yangtze River. The original manuscript was given to the fish cook, Master Yang.

When he heard Zhang Changyou and the others talking about the Xuan Palace Hotel at the welfare ticket sales store, he remembered this incident, and then he came up with the idea of ​​dining here and treating Xu Qingqing to a meal.

The reason for asking was just so that Xu Qingqing could not see that he knew everything.

Liang Baikai showed an excited expression and said, "Even great men eat your steamed Jiangcheng fish, so I want to try it too."

Xu Qingqing was equally shocked. Although she didn't read much, everyone had to recite the poems of great men in that era. She remembered that the poem was called "Water Melody Songtou? Swimming", and she could also recite the full text.

He also looked at the waiter and said excitedly: "What you said is true!"

The waiter said proudly: "Of course it's true. We still have the newspaper from that time in the store. If you don't believe me, I'll show it to you later."

Liang Baikai said quickly: "It's true, I've read it in the newspaper."

After finishing speaking, he said to the waiter: "Then the one who makes steamed Jiangcheng fish now is still Master Yang?"

The waiter smiled and said: "Master Yang is the signature chef of our store. He rarely does other dishes. He is all cooked by his apprentices. However, this steamed Jiangcheng fish is always cooked by him himself."

"The two guests are lucky. In another two years, they won't be able to eat the steamed Jiangcheng fish cooked by Master Yang himself!"

"That's really good luck!" Liang Bai said with a smile.

In the last life, after he became a rich man, he also came here to eat, but that was almost 2000, and Master Yang had already retired by that time.

Even though he was a wealthy man in his last life, he still couldn't eat the steamed Jiangcheng fish cooked by Master Yang himself.

In this life, he naturally refused to miss it.

He smiled and said, "Then give me one!"

The waiter agreed: "Okay, what other dishes do you want?"

Liang Baikai looked through the menu and quickly ordered five more dishes and one soup, making up enough for six dishes and one soup. All he ordered were the store's specialties.

After ordering, the waiter left.

Xu Qingqing said: "You order so many dishes, they are so expensive!"

She had read before that the pan-fried steak Liang Bai ordered cost more than 100 yuan, and the foie gras was even more expensive.

Liang Bai said with a smile: "No matter how expensive it is, we can still afford it."

Xu Qingqing said: "If you can afford it, there is no need to waste it so much!"

Liang Baikai said: "It's a waste if you don't eat it, but it's not a waste as long as you eat it!"

Xu Qingqing said: "It's so expensive, what else is it but a waste?"

"We can eat quite well for just a few yuan, but your table of dishes will only cost a few hundred yuan more."

Liang Bai said with a smile: "After eating, it's called enjoyment!"

"Honey, we want to enjoy life together, we don't have to think about how to save every day!"

Xu Qingqing said: "I think there is no conflict between enjoyment and frugality!"

Liang Bai opened his hands and held his forehead. For a while, it was difficult for the two of them to agree on their opinions, so they could only slowly reform his wife.

Let’s not continue talking about this, because if we continue, it can easily become an endless argument.

This is how the arguments in life often come about.

He didn't want that.

So he said: "Hey, look, we are so lucky today to be able to eat the food cooked by the imperial chef."

Speaking of this, Xu Qingqing was really happy and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that one day I would be able to eat the dishes that great men have eaten!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at the surrounding environment and said, "I see that the decoration here is completely in the style of foreigners. Are all restaurants opened by foreigners so expensive?"

Liang Bai was amused and said: "This is not a hotel opened by foreigners, but the house is an old house left over from the 30s and [-]s. It was built by foreigners at that time."

"Oh!" Xu Qingqing nodded and said, "No wonder!"

Liang Baikai said: "We don't have to worry about the decoration. You can taste these high-end dishes today, and then we will open a high-end restaurant."

what?

Xu Qingqing was stunned for a moment and said, "Don't we do a good job opening a junk shop? Why do we suddenly want to open a high-end restaurant?"

Liang Baikai talked nonsense seriously: "I came in and looked at this place, and then I had an idea."

"Well, think about it, will people's living standards get higher and higher in the future?"

"That's for sure!" Xu Qingqing nodded and said, "It's much easier for people to make money now than before, and their lives will definitely get better and better."

Liang Baikai said: "Look, you also know that people's lives will get better and better, so now when people eat out, they are just looking for a full meal, and they will eat wherever it is cheap."

"But from now on, people will not pursue being full, but pursuing eating well!"

“The food must taste good, the food must be nutritious, and the eating environment must be good!”

Pointing to the decoration inside the Xuan Palace Hotel, he continued: "Look at the decoration inside. Whether it is the chandeliers, curtains, tables, and chairs, they are all very high-end. Even the menu you have seen is of high quality. of."

"This kind of high-end hotel is built to be a high-consumption place. The people who come here to eat are all people with spending power!"

Xu Qingqing asked: "Is it like our state-owned hotel in Shicheng?"

Liang Baikai said: "That's pretty much what it means, but the environment of the state-owned hotel is not good. It's just that eating is expensive, and the price/performance ratio doesn't match."

"Exactly!" Xu Qingqing said: "Many people say that it is better to come to our Hezha restaurant to eat in a state-owned restaurant."

Liang Baikai said: "Honey, at Hezha shop, we are following a people-friendly approach. We focus on affordability and attract customers with high quality and low price."

"But there are also many wealthy people in Shicheng, and there are even more wealthy people outside."

"Some of them will put 'face' more important than the price when they eat. Such customers will not come to our Hezha restaurant to eat."

Xu Qingqing nodded, "Brother Kai, I understand what you are saying!"

While the two were talking, the waiter began to serve the food.

Pan-fried steak, French foie gras, boiled shrimp, roast duck, steamed Jiangcheng fish, stir-fried okra, plus a three-fresh soup, a total of six dishes and one soup.

There seemed to be six dishes, but except for the roast duck and steamed Jiangcheng fish, the other plates were not big and the portions of the dishes were not much.

"I thought it was quite a lot!"

"I didn't expect it to be just this little!"

Xu Qingqing said while looking at the six dishes and one soup on the table.
