Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

At this time, Chef Mi also came out of the kitchen: "Yes, Yuyu, our new dishes are so popular because we make them with our heart. If those dignitaries really come for the food, they won't refuse to come just because it's not free." Acai and Afu also nodded.

Yuyu's eyes gradually became clear, and she smiled and said, "Mom, I understand. We must rely on our own abilities to make money and cannot be bullied by bad people."

Xiaoyu smiled with satisfaction, "Yes, my Yuyu is really smart. Let's work together to run Zuixianlou better and better."

As Yu Yu and his family were talking, they walked out of Zuixianlou to take a look.

On the streets of Chang'an, the sun is so bright that it is almost dazzling. The newly built cement road is like a shining jade belt in Chang'an.

The cement road was so flat without a single wrinkle, and it had a light gray luster under the sunlight.

The shops on both sides of the street were decorated with lights and people dressed in new clothes poured into the streets, their cheers resounding through the sky.

Xiaoyu, Yuyu and Li Hao stood in the crowd.

Xiaoyu specially combed her hair into a neat bun today, with a few strands of hair hanging on her cheeks, making her look more gentle.

She was wearing a light blue dress. She held Yuyu and Li Hao's hands, trembling slightly, and said, "The road to Chang'an has finally been repaired."

Yu Yu is wearing a pink jacket and has two furry balls on her head, just like a cute little dumpling.

Her eyes were wide open, and she looked around curiously. Her little mouth kept asking, "Mom, I didn't expect the road to be repaired so quickly."

Xiaoyu smiled and replied, "This was built by the common people with their joint efforts. It will be much more convenient for us to walk on it in the future."

Li Hao stood straight. He was wearing a green cloth robe, with an upright posture and his eyes showing admiration for the cement road.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao stood in front of Zuixian Tower. They were dressed in gorgeous brocade robes, with swords on their waists, looking heroic.

Cheng Chumo's eyebrows were sharp and his eyes were bright. His expression was dignified but also had a hint of ease. He said to Qin Huaidao, "Once this cement road is repaired, Chang'an will definitely become more prosperous."

Qin Huaidao nodded and smiled, his eyes scanning the crowd around him, and responded: "Yes, the people are also blessed."

Ah Fu and Ah Cai were also in the crowd. Ah Fu squeezed in the front, looking around excitedly and shouting, "This road is really nice!"

His young face flushed slightly with excitement and his eyes sparkled.

Acai was behind, smiling and talking to the people next to her. She had a handkerchief in her hand and wiped the sweat off her face from time to time.

Chef Mi stood at the entrance of Zuixianlou, his face full of smiles, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he muttered to himself, "This is really great! It will be more convenient for diners to come in and out from now on."

At this moment, the emperor's carriage slowly arrived. The emperor was wearing a dragon robe and a crown on his head. The beads on the crown sparkled with colorful light in the sunlight.

His face was dignified yet gentle, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing his happy mood at the moment.

The emperor got off the imperial carriage and slowly walked towards the crowd.

Xiaoyu saw the emperor, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She took Yuyu and Lihao a few steps forward and knelt in greeting, "Your Majesty has arrived."

The emperor smiled and helped Xiaoyu up. His eyes fell on Yuyu and Li Hao. "No need to be polite. Today the cement road is completed. I must celebrate with the people."

Yuyu raised her head, looked at the emperor, blinked her eyes, and said in a baby voice, "Your Majesty, this road is great. Yuyu can run on it without falling."

The emperor laughed heartily and patted Yuyu's head: "Little girl, it was not easy to build this road. Many people have made great efforts."

The emperor looked at Li Hao and asked, "Young man, do you have any ideas?"

Li Hao replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, this cement road not only makes it convenient for ordinary people to travel, but also makes Chang'an's business more prosperous. It is truly a contribution that will last for thousands of years." The emperor nodded with satisfaction.

Then, the emperor walked towards Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao, who knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty."

The emperor raised his hand and motioned for them to stand up. "You guard the Zuixian Tower. Have you felt the changes brought about by this cement road?"

Cheng Chumo replied, "Your Majesty, the changes have been tremendous. In the past, the roads were muddy and difficult to transport goods during rainy days, but now we can do so without any worries."

Qin Huaidao also echoed, "Besides, it is now more convenient for people to travel to Zuixianlou, and there are more diners than before."

The emperor walked up to Ah Fu and Ah Cai again. Ah Fu was so nervous that he stuttered a little: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I... I think this road is great. It will be more convenient for me to get water when washing vegetables."

The people around laughed when they heard this. Ah Cai blushed and said, "Your Majesty, with this road, it's much easier for us to clean up. There's less dust."

The emperor smiled and nodded.

Finally, the emperor came to Chef Mi, who knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor smiled and said, "Get up, chef, have you ever thought about using this cement road to develop more new dishes?"

Chef Mi scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty, I will work hard to ensure that the people of Chang'an have better food."

The emperor stood in the middle of the cement road, looked around, and said loudly: "My dear ministers and people, this cement road is a great feat of our dynasty."

"Today's completion is a blessing for our dynasty and the people. I hope our dynasty will continue on this smooth path towards an even more prosperous future!"

The emperor's voice echoed through the streets, and the people cheered and knelt, shouting, "Your Majesty is wise and wise! Long live your Majesty!"

The emperor raised his hand slightly, smiled, and said, "Very well, no need to be polite. The road is now finished, and you may all return home. I will send someone to deliver the rewards to each of you. You have all worked hard today. The successful completion of this cement road is inseparable from your contributions."

Xiaoyu bowed again with Yuyu and Lihao, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Yuyu was skipping along, and from time to time she would look back at the lively scene: "Mother, His Majesty the Emperor is so kind, and there are rewards."

Xiaoyu smiled and nodded, her eyes full of gratitude: "Yes, Your Majesty cares about the people. This is our blessing."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao saluted the emperor and returned to Zuixian Tower.

Cheng Chumo looked at the bustling streets that had died down and said to Qin Huaidao, "Your Majesty's actions have truly won the hearts of the people. Once this reward arrives, the people will surely support the court even more."

Qin Huaidao nodded in agreement, "That's right, we must also guard Zuixianlou well and not let down His Majesty's kindness."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao stood at the gate of Zuixianlou, looking into the distance

Everyone was happy when suddenly, Li Shimin came over with the gait of a dragon and a tiger.

He smiled, his eyes revealing a hint of fatigue and anticipation. "I'm hungry too, Yuyu. What new food has Zuixianlou released recently?"

Li Shimin's voice was low and magnetic, echoing in the air.
