577 Eating raw vegetables and meat?
Even so, it was enough to deter the other merchants, and they did not dare to have any thoughts about this restaurant.
Ever since County Magistrate Zhou had guessed from his son’s description that this Nan Zhenjiang was the famous defender-general of the Long Yan Kingdom, Jiang Zhennan, he had been suppressing his excitement.
However, since Jiang Zhennan wanted to hide his identity, he could not expose him. Therefore, he could only treat him as an ordinary person.
However, after seeing Jiang Zhennan, County Magistrate Zhou’s attitude could not help but become respectful.
After County Magistrate Zhou glanced at Jiang Zhennan, he said to Lin yuelan, ” congratulations!”
Lin yuelan smiled and said, ” Thank you, sir!”
Then, she made an inviting gesture and said to the two of them, ” Your Excellency, big brother Zhou, please!”
The group walked into the private room.
The four of them sat in the private room and could see everything that was happening below through the open window.
Zhou wencai watched as Zhang Yuanbin dealt with the customers in an orderly manner. He said with a smile, ” sister yuelan, you really have a good eye for people. Zhang Yuanbin was just a weak scholar, but in just a few days, you’ve trained him into a decent shopkeeper.
“You have to know that Zhang Yuanbin used to be a proud scholar. It’s not easy to make him lose face and become a legitimate businessman!”
Lin yuelan watched as Zhang Yuanbin’s panic gradually turned into calmness. She looked back, took a sip of tea, and said indifferently, ” that was then, and this is now. He used to be the young master of the Zhang family, a proud scholar, but now he’s down and out, and he’s carrying a deep hatred.”
Therefore, even if he was unwilling, he had to force himself to do what he was unwilling to do.
This was the reality.
Of course, the other three could understand Lin yuelan’s implied meaning.
However, this made County Magistrate Zhou even more curious and suspicious of Lin yuelan.
A child could actually see so thoroughly and understand people’s hearts so well.
County Magistrate Zhou also smiled and asked curiously, ” Miss Lin, why did you choose Zhang Yuanbin to be the manager of the restaurant? ”
How could a child with such a transparent state of mind be able to tell a person’s talent with a single glance?
Why did County Magistrate Zhou ask this?
In fact, when he was standing at the door of the restaurant, he saw Zhang Yuanbin’s ability to deal with things. For example, he had the ability to make people quiet down in a noisy place.
Also, the tone of his voice was obviously able to stir up the customers ‘intense excitement and curiosity. This was completely in line with the quality of a businessman.
Lin yuelan was quite satisfied with Zhang Yuanbin’s handling of the restless guests.
After all, Zhang Yuanbin didn’t let the customers in line cause an uncontrollable riot and let them rush into the restaurant. Otherwise, she would really doubt whether Zhang Yuanbin was qualified to be the manager of the restaurant.
Fortunately, Zhang Yuanbin did not let her down.
Upon hearing County Magistrate Zhou’s curious question, Lin yuelan chuckled and replied, ” it could be said that this was a complete coincidence. I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Your Excellency!”
Of course, she couldn’t tell him that she had decided to let Zhang Yuanbin be the restaurant manager because she had seen the hatred, bitterness, and unwillingness hidden in his eyes.
Hearing Lin yuelan’s words, County Magistrate Zhou knew that she wouldn’t say anything more. He was a little displeased, but he wasn’t angry.
He nodded expressionlessly and said, ” Oh!”
Looking at County Magistrate Zhou’s expression, Lin yuelan could guess that he was unhappy with her. However, she did not want to explain too much.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Zhou Wencai immediately came out to smooth things over. He changed the topic and said with a smile, ” sister Yuelan, I heard that this restaurant has fresh vegetables. Is that true? ”
He had only found out that Lin yuelan had sent truckloads of fresh vegetables from the Lin family Village when the restaurant opened today.
This gave him a huge shock.
How could there be fresh vegetables in such a cold winter? This was too unbelievable.
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” that’s right. In a moment, Your Excellency and big brother Zhou will be served a good meal. There will be an unexpected surprise!”
Zhou Wencai’s eyes immediately lit up. He said with a slightly excited expression, ” Oh!”
At this moment, a waiter came in and asked, ” Young miss, everything is ready. Are we serving the dishes now? ”
Since her background and identity were public, all the waiters in the restaurant knew that Lin yuelan was the owner of this restaurant.
However, at the same time, they were also instructed not to spread this news. They only wanted outsiders to think that the restaurant was opened by the person backing Lin yuelan.
Lin yuelan indifferently said, “Okay.”
A moment later, the waiters appeared. There were both men and women among these waiters. They were dressed in professional clothes specially designed by Lin yuelan. They pushed open the door and entered the private room with a food cart.
Three waitresses arrived.
County Magistrate Zhou and Zhou Wencai were very surprised when they saw that the female staff. Then, when they saw the moveable cart, they were even more shocked.
What was this thing?
Before they could react, the female waiters brought out plates of freshly washed fresh vegetables from the dining cart in an orderly and practiced manner. There were also plates of fresh meat, which were placed on the dining table in order.
Zhou Wencai was dumbstruck when he saw the raw vegetables and meat being served on the table!
It wasn’t cooked. Were they supposed to eat the vegetables and meat raw?
County Magistrate Zhou looked at the fresh vegetables and raw meat and frowned. He didn’t know how Lin yuelan wanted them to eat.
Zhou Wencai pointed at the dishes and said in puzzlement, ” sister Yuelan, do you want us to eat these things raw? “
