When we arrived at the kitchen, Song Kai asked the fat man to try a few dishes. Not to mention, although it was not delicious, it looked very beautiful.

Song Kai nodded after seeing it. The fat man was still skillful.

"Not bad," Song Kai looked at the fat man's skills and nodded.

The fat man laughed and said, "That's natural, the shopkeeper, I'm not bragging to you. I, Zhao Tieshan, have a single pass on the 18th generation. The entire Tang Dynasty has the skills comparable to mine. Only the imperial kitchen in the imperial kitchen of the palace. Apart from that, you can't find anyone else. Back then, my ancestors rushed through the Sui palace with a kitchen knife, and made the foolish emperor of Emperor Yang of Sui smile and laugh for three days, and the sound of the sound lingering around..."

"Stop!" Song Kai looked up and down at the fat man, and began to feel a little doubtful. This fat man is good at bragging.

"Oh, yes," the fat man stopped quickly and said with a smile: "Then, store owner, can you give me more wages every month? Sanguan is a bit low for me. After all, I am the only successor of the 18th generation of Zhaojiacai..."

"Okay, if you perform well, one or two gold coins per month are OK," Song Kai was generous, "Let's do it first, I'll read your official disc text."

"I..." The fat man's face changed for a moment. He quickly looked around and saw that no one was around, and he knelt down with a plop.

Song Kai was shocked, what happened?

"Shopkeeper, to be honest, I... I came from Chang'an," the fat man pulled Song Kai's trousers, and burst into tears, but his eyes were constantly spinning. I guess as long as Song Kai wanted to report to the official, he would immediately raise his legs and run away.

Song Kai didn't have much expression. Anyway, the store had already taken in an illegal person, so he said, "What did you do?"

Seeing that Song Kai was not panicked, the fat man did not yell, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his nose, and stopped pretending to be pitiful, and said, "Hey, Fatty Zhao, I, on weekdays, just like to brag and take advantage of a small advantage, but I am definitely not a bad person. I missed me, Zhao Tieshan, a single-handed person of the eighteenth generation, and naturally, and do things upright. Besides, I just need to make one dish, and the whole city of Chang'an will..."

"I'll go!" Song Kai was depressed and interrupted Zhao Tieshan's bragging, "Talk the serious business."

"Oh, oh, hehe, it's actually a disaster. You must know that in recent years, Chang'an City has been in chaos. Those dead eunuchs control the government and fight fiercely between various parties. If you accidentally stand in the wrong team and say the wrong words, no matter if you are a third-rank official, your home will be searched and asked to beheaded overnight. Woo, I was originally the chef of Wang Shangshu's family, but unfortunately, Wang Shangshu was too straightforward last month and wrote a letter to the emperor to say bad things about the eunuchs.

The next day, the whole family was executed, saying that it was a private prisoner of the imperial court. Poor the maid of Qiu Ju, the son of Wang Shangshu. I loved her for more than two years, but that night she was sold to an official prostitute. Woo, some servants and I escaped in the chaos. Shop, store owner, store owner, you have to pity me! Think of me, Zhao Tieshan, the eighteenth generation of the Zhao family, if I die, our old Zhao family will be defeated..." Zhao Tieshan covered his eyes with his fingers, as if wiping tears, but in fact he was observing Song Kai's reaction.

After hearing this, Song Kai just nodded and said, "That's OK, but you will hide in the store in the future and don't go out normally. If Wu Hou checks, you can be smart and don't implicate me."

"Yes, yes, thank you, thank you, the store." Zhao Tieshan hurriedly thanked.

Song Kai hurried and said, "Since you are working in my store, I won't ask about your origins anymore. I still have the same requirement. If you do it well, you will have one or two gold taels per month. Of course, if you invite you at a high price in other restaurants, if you leave, I will report it to the government."

Zhao Tieshan's face turned pale and he quickly laughed: "No, no, Song Lang has the kindness of knowing me, so I will naturally not betray my faith."

Song Kai nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see where you live. The inn will officially open tomorrow. Today I will discuss the menu of our store with you."

"No problem! If I, Zhao Tieshan, control the kitchen, don't worry." Zhao Tieshan held the kitchen knife, full of courage.

When we arrived at the backyard, Nie Lingdang was chopping the wood with a hatchet.

When Zhao Tieshan saw Nie Lingling, his eyes were instantly congested. He was also a twenty-seven or eight years old. As a single old man, a woman, especially a beautiful woman, was particularly attractive to him.

"Song...Song Lang, she, she is..." Zhao Tieshan pointed at Nie Lingling.

"The waiter in the store, oh, it's just a mailman," Song Kai said.

After hearing this, Zhao Tieshan ran over. The meteorite kitchen knife in his hand slashed the wood in front of Nie Lingling. With a "click", a log broke with a sound. It seemed that the kitchen knife was indeed sharp enough.

Nie Lingling was startled, stepped back, and looked at the man with a fat face in front of her in panic.

"Hello, my little lady, my name is Zhao Tieshan. I am the new chef in our inn. My monthly salary is one or two gold. I am also the 18th generation successor of the Zhao family and the only successor of the Zhao family. Look, this kitchen knife is made of meteorite and was given to my family by Emperor Yang of Sui..." Zhao Tieshan bombarded Nie Lingdang and lingered on Nie Lingdang's body, just like drooling. If such a good girl can be married, it will be a blessing for several lifetimes.

Nie Lingdang opened her mouth halfway, listened for a while, then turned her head and looked at Song Kai, "Song Kai, where did this crazy man come from?"

Song Kai smiled bitterly and said, "Zhao Tieshan, hurry up and see the room. Your room is at the easternmost end."

Zhao Tieshan's room is at the east end, Nie Lingling's room is at the west end, next to Song Kai's room. Song Kai is really not allowed to be careful. Looking at Zhao Tieshan's condition, he is the kind of male animal with a ecstasy period, so he must be careful at all times.

Zhao Tieshan laughed and said, "Miss, Zhao will help you split the material later."

As he said that, he entered the room in a flash.

This backyard is a guest room, with about ten rooms, six rooms downstairs and four rooms upstairs, and a semicircular city. However, the hotel business is not good and no one has stayed in the hotel for a long time, so it has been empty. Song Kai asked Zhao Tieshan, Nie Lingdang and the others to live in the guest room directly.

Zhao Tieshan cleaned up his room very carefully.

Nie Lingdang wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked to Song Kai, and said, "Your recruitment notice has attracted such a person?" His face was full of contempt.

Song Kai rubbed his hands and laughed: "He is a little better than you think. Although he is bragging a little, he is also a little better, but his cooking skills are pretty good..."

Not long after, Ah Fu brought a basket of things into the inn. He beat his waist and said, "Dalang, I asked, the lion dance team costs at least six taels of gold at a time. I think we should stop tossing that one."

Song Kai nodded. Now he had too little money to stand the trouble. "Have you bought Tongluo or something?"

"I bought it, it's expensive," Ah Fu sighed with a painful look on his face.

Song Kai also lamented that there is no gunpowder these days, and the firecrackers used are very low-end, just the kind that makes you crackle when you burn. That's all, it has no power at all. If you have gunpowder and a few strings of firecrackers, it will save you much more trouble.

No matter what, it still has to be lively.

Nie Lingling's voice came from the backyard, "I'll chop the firewood and then pick up the water."

"Okay, okay, no problem. I, Zhao Tieshan, have endless strength. We have no advantages, just being strong. Look, look at my body..."

Hearing this conversation, Song Kai sighed and walked to the backyard. Sure enough, Zhao Tieshan was serving Nie Lingdang for free.

"Zhao Tieshan, come here and study the recipe. You tell me what you are good at. I will make some of my best. It will open tomorrow," Song Kai said.

When he arrived at the kitchen, Zhao Tieshan talked about some dishes he knew. He was the chef at Wang Shangshu's house and was really a family-born chef, so his cooking skills were quite reliable. Song Kai taught Zhao Tieshan the way to cook the meat again.

When Zhao Tieshan saw the fragrant re-cooked pork, he suddenly lost his temper. He stared at Song Kai blankly, "Shop... Shopkeeper, you, your ancestors also served as a chef?"

Song Kai nodded casually and said, "This is a signature dish. The drunk duck you made is not bad. Oh, by the way, I will teach you another way to cook braised pork. This one is quite delicious and can also be used as a signature dish. Well, there is still one less, how about the old vinegar peanuts?"

Song Kai said to himself, and then talked about the method of making braised pork with the method of making old vinegar peanuts.

This time, Zhao Tieshan fell silent directly.

Song Kai looked at Zhao Tieshan strangely, "Zhao Tieshan, you are the chef, say something."

Zhao Tieshan bowed, bent down at Song Kai ninety degrees, and said, "Song Lang, you...you are so generous, teach me the way of cooking these dishes, I...I, Zhao, really...I am really ashamed. Don't worry, Song Lang, I will definitely not spread these methods."

Song Kai curled his lips and patted Zhao Tieshan on the shoulder, "Don't care. If you like it, these dishes can be placed in your Zhao family cuisine in the future, and it is claimed that you have made it yourself."

"Ah? Really?... Then, how can that work? These dishes are very... very precious, unique, very... very good." Zhao Tieshan kept rubbing his hands.

"Okay, as long as I can manage this inn well, I feel at ease. As for reputation, I never thought that you can stay with me with peace of mind. In the future, we will continue to expand some new dishes and promote your Zhao family dishes," Song Kai grinned.

Zhao Tieshan was silent for three seconds and bowed again suddenly, "Thank you for your fulfillment."

"Well, okay, you'll have to pay attention to the kitchen. I have to post small advertisements outside."

After saying that, Song Kai left the kitchen and discussed the best place to post advertisements with Ah Fu.

This time, Ah Fu was also full of confidence and chose ten places with crowds, saying, "Dalang, just these ten places, there are many people here, so the emperor blesses you. Our Hongchen Inn will definitely be run this time!"
