Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 187

But when I think about the fact that these dishes are personally customized by the imperial chefs in the palace, I feel it is quite a good deal.

After all, some people will never be able to eat the food cooked by the imperial chef in their entire life.

For only one hundred and ninety-nine taels, you can enjoy twelve dishes and a soup prepared by the imperial chef.

"I wonder what the other four boxes are like?" someone soon asked another question.

Shopkeeper Zhou was surprised to see that no one mind the expensive dishes.

"Two private rooms are available every morning and evening. Guests can order by themselves this time. The dishes are divided into twelve courses and one soup. The quality is medium and the price is three hundred and ninety-nine taels of silver!" Shopkeeper Zhou had the experience just now, so he spoke with more confidence.

After hearing this, everyone thought for a while and felt that if they ordered the dishes themselves, the extra half of the money would not be so cost-effective. However, he also had his own characteristics.

"I wonder what level the remaining one is?" someone soon asked curiously.

"The remaining grade is the highest grade in our Deyue Building. If you want to book our high-grade private room, you need to go through a bidding process. The highest bidder wins. The starting price is fifty taels of silver, and each increase in price must be no less than five taels of silver. Guests in this grade of private room can order sixteen dishes and one soup." Manager Zhou said quickly.

"Manager Zhou, are you sure that the dishes here are all prepared by the imperial chef from the palace? You can't fool us!" someone shouted soon.

"Everyone, you can rest assured. We at Deyue Tower have always been operating with integrity and do not do anything dishonest. There are a total of sixty-four imperial chefs in the palace, and at least two or more imperial chefs will come to our Deyue Tower to cook for everyone every day. I believe you all know that each imperial chef in the palace has different specialties, so you don't have to worry, our dishes are different every day. However, guests need to submit the menu they want to order to us one day or half a day in advance so that we can prepare the ingredients needed for the day!" Shopkeeper Zhou added.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, book me a five-day reservation!" Zhang Li said generously as he took out a silver note of 1,000 taels.

"I want one too! I want one for three days first!" Niu Qin, who had been hesitating, quickly took out the six hundred taels of silver notes he carried with him and said.

Seeing that several seats were booked at once, everyone was afraid that if they arrived too late, they would miss out.

They all took out their banknotes and said they wanted some too.

In a short while, Manager Zhou had booked all the meals for half a month.

At this time, Manager Zhou's hands were cramping from counting the silver.

After all, if only primary and intermediate auctions can be scheduled, then we’ll have to arrange time for it!

I originally thought it would be great if I could book the beginner level, but I didn’t expect that the intermediate level has already been booked for half a month later.

Chu Yuanming and others who were having dinner in the hall were stunned by the scene.

Is this okay?

Chu Haoyu, who was originally waiting to see the show, was also dumbfounded.

He just saw the shopkeeper collect a lot of silver.

This amount of silver far exceeds the amount of silver their Jingyue Tower received today.

Since I didn’t get a private room, I came here to taste the royal chef’s cooking.

"Boss, don't you still have people bidding? When does the bidding start?" Everyone got anxious when they saw that neither the beginners nor the intermediates could get a private room.

At this time, those people were thinking that no matter how much money the auction mode cost, they had to grab it.

Shopkeeper Zhou hurried over and asked Qiao Anan for instructions.

"Second Prince's wife, what do you think we should do?" Shopkeeper Zhou asked Qiao Anan respectfully.

Qiao Anan thought this method might be very popular, but she didn't expect it to be so popular.

Now that we have Deyuelou, all the orders for the next half month have been settled.

"Father, why don't you be a witness today and preside over the first auction of our Deyue Tower?" Qiao Anan asked Chu Yuanming who was standing aside with a smile.

Chu Yuanming also found this very strange.

The prince was amazed!

If he had just calculated correctly.

The Second Prince's wife had already received more than 90,000 taels of silver.

Although the prince thought that the second prince's wife made money very quickly.

I'm not jealous at all.

After all, today's situation is not favorable to the Second Prince's wife.

But they not only turned the situation around.

It also brought Deyue Tower to a higher level.

The prince understood that from now on, Deyue Tower would no longer be a place where anyone could come.

Even the chef who betrayed his master would be treated very well if he went to Jingyue Tower.

But he missed the better Deyue Tower.

I wonder if the chef will regret it when he realizes that he has taken a low approach?

"Since An An has spoken, I will make the decision today!" Chu Yuanming was also happy.

This amounted to 90,000 taels of silver, although not all of it went into the national treasury.

After deducting costs and expenses, there is still at least 30,000 taels of silver left.

This was the first time Chu Yuanming personally experienced how quickly Qiao Anan made money.

He even felt a little relieved that such a person was taken into his son's pocket so early, and did not fall into the hands of someone else.

The crowd, who were originally excited, became even more motivated when they heard that the emperor himself would preside over the bidding, wanting to win a spot in a private room.

Those who had enough silver were eager to move, while those who did not have enough silver quickly ordered the servants around them to go back and get the silver.

Seeing that everyone was ready to go, Qiao Anan prepared to bid for the qualification to prepare high-end dishes for the next seven days.

Soon, Qiao Anan gave a number card to those who wanted to participate in the auction. Those who wanted to get the number card had to go to Manager Zhou to register their identity first.

After registering and receiving the number card, the waiter will lead the people to sit at the table in the hall.

The waiter quickly served these people tea and snacks made by the imperial chefs.

Everyone looked at the service attitude of Deyue Tower and felt that they were very considerate.

After all, they can sit here and enjoy free tea and pastries.

Although the family was not short of these pastries, these pastries were all made by the imperial chef. Even people who did not like pastries could not help but pick up a piece and taste it.

"Everyone, since we are auctioning the qualifications of owners of high-end dishes in the past seven days, we have tentatively set the number of bidders at 60. Thirty-three number plates have already been collected." Qiao Anan shouted again at this time.

Those who were not in a hurry originally started to get anxious again.

After all, only sixty people can receive number plates, but thirty-three have already received them. Among those behind, only twenty-seven people can get number plates.

This made everyone nervous again, fearing that they would not be able to get a number plate.

"Don't worry, everyone. If you missed this time, we will have the next time. From now on, we will bid for the qualification to have a private room with high-end dishes, once every three days." Qiao Anan quickly comforted everyone.

Finally, after sixty people went in, Qiao Anan looked and saw that there were still six people outside.

With a sudden thought, he asked the six people to register their identities and enter.
