Chapter 28, grab food

Zhou Ji stood at the door and looked east and west. There were fewer and fewer passers-by on the street, but no one entered their store. The few people who stood with him at the door looked back at the shopkeeper Zhou inside from time to time.

"Brother Ji, it's getting dark today, do you think anyone will come? Chef Yu has come over several times to ask when the food will be served!" the helper boy asked.

Zhou Ji was already in a hurry, but when he heard him ask this question, he became even more anxious: "Go, go, why bother? The shopkeeper and I are not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry? You are free!"

The helper was so bullied that he stopped talking, so he came to help today, and he left after paying his wages in the evening, not in a hurry with his boss.

After another quarter of an hour, the sky darkened and the second lamp was turned on. Zhou Jiyi stood by the door, his legs were tired from standing, but still no one came.

Zhou Chuan came to the door a few times before returning to the store, sitting in the lobby with a cold face, his palms were covered with cold sweat, looking at the snacks on the table and the aroma coming from the back kitchen, he couldn’t stop begging Seeing the Queen Mother and Guanyin Bodhisattva, the Jade Emperor appeared, so hurry up and let people come, if no one comes tonight, his shop will really disappear.

At this time, Zhou Ji came in again and asked, "Shopkeeper, shall we continue to wait?"

Zhou Chuan hesitated, yes, should he continue to wait?Up to now there is no one, so much tonight, are you going to mess around?
Yu Liu also came over from the back kitchen, and said again: "Shopkeeper, the dishes are getting cold, if you reheat them later, the taste will be bad."

Hearing what the two said, Zhou Chuan was extremely anxious. He was silent for a while: "Wait for another moment, if no one comes, then withdraw from the table."

Zhou Ji and Yu Liu looked at each other across the air, want to leave the table?

It's a pity to withdraw!Such a good taste?Just throw it away like this, and any restaurant will explode in business!

But neither of the two said anything, and returned to their positions with heavy hearts, continuing to wait for people.

Seeing the reluctant backs of the two, Zhou Chuan secretly sighed, God, please come to someone, after yelling all afternoon, at least please come to someone!
He prayed desperately in his heart, the candle was burning little by little, just when everyone's hopes were exhausted, there was movement at the door.

"Officer, don't we need money for the food here tonight?"

Zhou Ji looked at the person in surprise, and Zhou Chuan got up and looked in surprise when he heard the sound.

I saw a few thin people in ragged clothes walking over. Looking at their clothes and appearance, they knew that they were wandering hungry people in the city. Their surprised faces drooped instantly.

It turned out to be hungry people!

Zhou Ji looked back at shopkeeper Zhou, and could only decide whether they wanted to come in after obtaining his consent.

Zhou Chuan looked at the few hungry people who were fairly well-behaved. If there were no one around tonight, the dishes prepared in the store would be lost. It is better to let them in to save wastage.

"Let them in!" Zhou Chuan said helplessly.

Zhou Ji immediately greeted him with a smile: "Please come in objectively, all the food in the guest restaurant tonight is free of charge!"

A few hungry people laughed, the years of severe drought, the restaurant did not ask them to eat in without money, what a kind person!
"Okay, okay, the store owner is a kind person, good intentions will definitely be rewarded!"

Zhou Ji's smiling face, the more he smiles, the more he loses his taste. People's kindness is rewarded, but for our shopkeeper, it is not rewarded!He personally led several people into the store.

"Zhou Ji, why is there someone earlier than us?"

At this time, a thick and powerful voice called him from behind.

When Zhou Ji heard the voice, he was very familiar. Looking back, it was Mr. Ni who was in the daytime. He asked the helper to take the hungry people to the store first, and hurried to pick up Mr. Ni.

When he walked in and saw Mr. Ni, he was shocked immediately. There was a group of people behind Mr. Ni. He was so tired and obedient, how many people there were!
People are coming, people are coming!
Zhou Ji shouted with great joy: "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, come out and continue, come, come, everyone is here!"

Zhou Chuan saw the darkness outside and saw no one. Hearing him yelling, he hurried out. By candlelight, he saw the people next to Zhou Ji, his eyes suddenly lit up, so many people?
He was taken aback, the three old men brought so many people?

He was pleasantly surprised like a galloping horse in his heart, but he was still calm on the surface. He ran over in a hurry, and went up to greet him in person: "Oh, there is a long way to go, there is a long way to go, Mr. Ni, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Chu, You guys are here, please come in, please come in!"

Old Ni smiled and asked, "Is the food ready?"

Zhou Chuan smiled and said, "It's ready, it's ready, just wait for a few to come!"

Elder Ni saw that several people had already entered in front, thinking of the spicy taste at noon, his mouth watered back, and he couldn't wait to taste that taste quickly.

"Stop talking, stop talking, let's open the table, open the table!" Ni Lao hurriedly pushed Zhou Chuan away and entered the shop first.

Seeing him go in, Elder Zhou and Elder Chu quickly followed him, regardless of the people behind him.

Zhou Chuan and Zhou Ji greeted the people behind to enter the restaurant.

After the people arrived in the lobby, Zhou Chuan declared loudly: "Open the table!"

Yu Liu immediately arranged for the helper to bring the hot dishes to the table.

Zhou Chuan looked at the people brought by Mr. Ni, who were either rich or noble, dressed in brocade clothes and golden crowns, and there seemed to be a few people with extremely noble status among them. They stood in the crowd gracefully, looking at the Plates of ordinary dishes were served, quietly.

But Mr. Ni and Mr. Zhou, as well as the few hungry people who came in before, moved their chopsticks when they saw the food was served, as if someone was fighting with them, they protected the food on the plate and ate it into their mouths.

The lobby was full of people. At first, some of them looked at the poor-looking old man with a flat mouth, and some picked up chopsticks to try it, and some only held dried fruit to taste.

Zhou Chuan walked over to the crowd, persuaded them to try the taste of the dishes, and personally cut the dishes in front of them.

At the beginning, those nobles were still pretending to be reserved, pushing and unwilling to eat, but after they were forced into their mouths and tried the first bite, the nobles let go of their identities and the grudges in their hearts, their eyes were like fire, and they picked up the bamboo tube. Chopsticks participate in grabbing food.

Zhou Chuan saw that the people in the lobby were trying all kinds of dishes with their chopsticks without thinking about talking, and there were even a few people who, like Ni, Zhou, Chu, and Lao, were protecting their plates from being touched by others.

Seeing that everyone was scrambling for food in the lobby, Zhou Chuan smiled and felt relieved.

Zhou Ji laughed too, and Yu Liu just laughed it off!
Laibin restaurant, keep it!

After everyone finished eating the dishes on the plate, they felt that they hadn't eaten enough, so they took the empty plates and asked Zhou Chuan if there was any more, and even took out money to buy the next table of dishes on the spot.

Zhou Chuan greeted everyone with a smile: "Don't worry, everyone, it's just a tasting tonight. Please come and taste the taste. If you think the taste is good, the shop will focus on spicy dishes every day in the future, supplemented by other dishes. Welcome all diners Let's come and taste it, but at noon tomorrow, Laibin Restaurant will open fifteen tables of dishes for diners to enjoy, please diners, please remember to come to our restaurant at noon tomorrow!"
