Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

When the Xiaodongshan breeding base started operating, Su Xinyan suggested that Xu Qingzhou could try opening a restaurant or a eatery.

After all, Xu Qingzhou has indeed come up with many new ideas about food, and it would be a real shame not to use them to earn spirit stones.

Xu Qingzhou thought it would be better to wait and wait until he had acquired a few wine recipes and the business of raising spirit beasts was mature before opening the shop.

Now that the wine recipe has been purchased, and several kinds of mythical beasts from the Xiaodongshan breeding base have been sold and are ready for consumption, it's a good time to open a shop.

So Xu Qingzhou arranged for the Sixth Elder to take charge of this matter.

The Sixth Elder was slightly overweight and always had a cheerful smile, like a Maitreya Buddha. He was very good at dealing with all kinds of people.

If you didn't know his cultivation level, you'd think he was a wealthy businessman.

Previously, the Sixth Elder had been in charge of most of the Xu family's businesses, and there had been no major problems.

Now, it would be a piece of cake for him to open a restaurant.

Just three days later, the Sixth Elder came to find Xu Qingzhou.

"Reporting to the clan chief, I have completed what you instructed."

Xu Qingzhou was taken aback. "So fast?"

"The ideal location for the restaurant has been selected, part of the rent has been paid, all the staff have been arranged, and all the necessary tables, chairs, and kitchenware have been prepared. Now, all you need to do is give the order, and we can open immediately."

The Sixth Elder stood up straight, looking as if he had everything under control.

Xu Qingzhou nodded repeatedly.

"Alright, let's go to the store first. There's no rush to open. Let's decide on the food and drinks first."

While a restaurant's location, service, and ambiance are important, the food and drinks served are equally crucial.

To gain a foothold in Lingyue City and earn spirit stones, the food and drinks must have some unique features to retain talent.

Xu Qingzhou and the Sixth Elder left the Xu family together and arrived at the bustling main urban area.

The ordinary streets in the main urban area of ​​Lingyue City are all ten zhang wide, while the two main intersecting roads that run through the entire city are thirty zhang wide.

Shops along the two main roads are naturally in the best locations and have the highest rents, so restaurants naturally want to be located in such places.

The Sixth Elder spent a whole day searching before finally choosing a suitable shop.

This shop is located on the main east-west road, about 500 zhang away from the intersection of the main road, which is the very center of the city.

With such a prime location, the rent is naturally exorbitantly high.

If you can't make a profit after a few months of opening a store, you should close it down as soon as possible. In this case, you'll lose money every day you open the store, so it's better to close it down.

The Sixth Elder pointed to the plaque above the door and said, "What name do you think we should give this restaurant? I'll have someone make it right now."

"Let's call it Drunken Immortal Pavilion," Xu Qingzhou had already decided.

The Sixth Elder was taken aback. "Isn't this name a bit too grand?"

Others might call themselves "Drunken Fragrance Pavilion," but you, good heavens, dare to call yourself "Drunken Immortal Pavilion"? That's too arrogant!

What if a troublesome customer tries to find fault?

Xu Qingzhou chuckled.

"If anyone doesn't believe it, bring in an immortal and let him taste it to see if he can get drunk."

The Sixth Elder was speechless. If that's the case, then there really is no problem.

Xu Qingzhou stepped into the shop. It was spotless, with tables and chairs already set up, and the chef and waiters were all there. All that was left was for the ingredients and wine to arrive before the shop could open.

The restaurant has three floors: a main hall on the first floor and private rooms on the second and third floors.

Xu Qingzhou looked around and was very satisfied.

"Indeed, the Sixth Elder's ability to handle affairs is as reliable as ever."

"You flatter me, Clan Chief," the Sixth Elder replied with a smile, though his eyes disappeared when he laughed.

Xu Qingzhou asked in a low voice, "I have several secret seasonings and dishes. Can the people in the kitchen be trusted?"

This is a trade secret. Although it's not nearly as important as the formula, it still can't be leaked.

"Don't worry, the cook and the waiter are both from the Xu family, and the cook was carefully selected by me, so there's no problem," the Sixth Elder said confidently.

Many members of the Xu family are unable to cultivate or have mediocre aptitude, but many of them are capable and will be given important positions by the Xu family.

In addition, the families of some cultivators will also arrange some jobs for their parents.

Hearing him say that, Xu Qingzhou felt relieved and went to the kitchen.

"Clan leader."

The cook and his assistant immediately called out respectfully.

Xu Qingzhou beckoned them all to come closer, as he was about to personally teach them his skills.

Xu Qingzhou has spent about the same amount of time researching food as he has spent cultivating martial arts and refining their artistic conception over the years.

He combined some seasonings and dishes from his previous life with some specialties from the Tianyuan Realm to create many unique seasonings.

There are 130 spices, oyster sauce made from Linghao oysters, broad bean paste made from Lingdou beans, and Lao Gan Ma chili sauce made from Lingjiao peppers.

There are also some dishes that don't exist in this world, such as one hundred ways to cook chicken, one hundred ways to cook pork, and fifty ways to cook lamb and fish.

Select some of the most distinctive and delicious dishes to be the signature dishes of Zuixianlou.

Another important aspect for restaurants is the alcohol.

In addition to the several types of spirit wines commonly sold on the market, the Xu family has also acquired two unrevealed wine recipes over the years, which they use as the signature spirit wines of Zuixianlou.

Finally, Xu Qingzhou also prepared some drinks for the restaurant.

There are so many spiritual fruits and teas in this world, it would be a real shame not to make them into drinks. So Xu Qingzhou tried making some himself based on the drink recipes from his previous life.

The effect was quite good. Su Xinyan, who had tried it, said she liked it very much and stopped drinking the spirit tea and spirit wine, drinking these beverages every day.

For example, there are passion fruit juice, lemon juice, and spirit branch nectar, etc.

In the sweltering summer, offering cultivators some refreshing and delicious drinks rich in spiritual energy would surely be something they wouldn't refuse.

Xu Qingzhou stayed at Zuixianlou for five consecutive days, sharing most of his research findings with the staff.

After ensuring that all the chefs and staff had learned and mastered the skills, Zuixianlou was ready to open for business.

This is the Xu family's first restaurant in Lingyue City, and Xu Qingzhou plans to promote it extensively and open it with great fanfare.

Ideally, everyone in Lingyue City should know that Xu Family Restaurant has opened.

This has both advantages and disadvantages.

The downside is that if Zuixianlou's business fails and it closes down in the future, it will become a small black mark on the Xu family's reputation, making them a laughingstock.

The advantage is that it can quickly spread its reputation, let more cultivators know about it, and attract them to Zuixianlou.

Xu Qingzhou didn't care about the Xu family's dark history; he only wanted to earn spirit stones, develop the family as soon as possible, and make himself feel at ease while lying low.
