Seeing that the pig meat and mutton in the pot had begun to change color, the waiter said quickly: "Dear ladies, you can eat!"
"Okay?"
The three aristocratic dignitaries at the table were all stunned, they didn't expect that they would become familiar with him so quickly!
"Exactly!"
The waiter nodded slightly.
Seeing this, the three nobles from the aristocratic families at the table didn't waste any further time. They directly picked up a piece of meat, put it into the small bowl of sesame sauce in front of them, turned it around, and then put it into their mouths.
However, just after chewing two mouthfuls, the expressions of the three people changed drastically. They hurriedly swallowed the pieces of meat in their mouths. While taking a big breath, they quickly picked up the ale on the side and drank it directly.
It took a while before he felt relieved.
"It's so spicy?"
A powerful man from an aristocratic family looked at the pot in front of him, his brows furrowed, his face full of worry, and beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
"But gentlemen, it tastes very fragrant and delicious. The more you eat it, the more you want to eat it. It also goes well with wine!"
The waiter waiting on the side said quickly.
"Is this really the case?"
Hearing this, the three nobles from the aristocratic families at the table also relaxed, smacked their mouths a few times, and their eyes slowly widened.
Then, I couldn't help but pick up the tachyon again and started eating.
In this way, after a few pauses, several dishes are put into the hot pot.
"Go get six more bottles of ale for someone!"
"Six bottles are not enough? At least nine bottles!"
"If so, then nine bottles!"
"Yes, three noble men!"
When the waiter came up again carrying nine bottles of ale, the atmosphere on the table became even more heated.
Half an hour later.
There were more than ten dishes on the table, but they were all empty.
Fifteen bottles of ale were all empty, not a drop was left!
The dignitaries of the three aristocratic families also went to the three halls in turn!
"I wonder if the three nobles can eat well. There is also pasta in the shop. A portion of pasta only costs ten cents. If the three nobles still want to eat pasta, I will bring it to you now!"
The waiter introduced it from the side.
"No, no, I can't even take a bite!"
"Exactly, I don't want to eat even one bite!"
"I haven't had such a satisfying meal in a long time. This hot pot is indeed the peerless delicacy that His Highness the King of Jin said!"
"call……"
The three aristocratic dignitaries at the table were all lying on their chairs with faces full of satisfaction, not wanting to move.
After a while, a dignitary from a noble family raised his head and asked slowly.
"Shopkeeper, how much does this hotpot cost?"
After hearing this, the waiter who had already prepared quickly took out a long note from the shopkeeper and handed it to the three people at the table.
"Reply to the three nobles, here is the bill for the food they ate!"
On the note, every item was written in great detail.
“Hot pot base: two guans of money!
Two plates of pork, one hundred cents!
Two plates of mutton, one hundred and twenty cents!
A portion of pig tripe costs sixty cents!
A serving of sweet potatoes costs one hundred cents!
A portion of potatoes costs one hundred cents!
A portion of radish costs ten cents!
A portion of lotus root costs twenty cents!
…
Fifteen bottles of ale, seven hundred and fifty coins!
A total of four coins and five hundred and twenty coins!"
"There are so many?"
After reading it, the three of them couldn't help but look surprised.
"I don't seem to have eaten anything expensive, so why are we paying four thousand and twenty cents?"
With that said, the three of them quickly calculated the bill in detail, and it turned out that it was four to five hundred and twenty cents, not a penny missing.
Moreover, they also ordered all the meat and vegetables on the menu.
"Butler, give me the money!"
Since the calculation was correct, a member of an aristocratic family said proudly to the steward who came up.
"Why do you ask Brother Pei to pay? It's up to you to pay today!"
"No, no, it's someone who is here to pay! Butler, why are you still standing there, why don't you hurry up and pay!"
As he said that, the three of them started to make a noise.
Seeing this, the waiter remembered the words of his king, chuckled quickly, and said in a low voice: "Three nobles, don't fight for it. Since the hot pot is very suitable for the three of you, then the three nobles can treat each other today, tomorrow or the day after.
A few days later, two other noble men came here again to treat me.
It just so happens that, taking this opportunity to have a meal, the three nobles can also eat delicious food, drink fine wine, talk freely, and enhance their feelings!"
"Um?"
Hearing this, the three powerful people from the aristocratic families couldn't help but be startled, and then burst into laughter.
"That's right, among the three of us, Brother Yu is the oldest, so there is no need for the two of you to compete. I'm here to treat you today!"
"In this case, it is better to obey orders than to be respectful!"
"Tomorrow, my foolish brother invites two wise brothers to have hot pot here!"
"Very good!"
"Hahaha……"
After the three people at the table paid, they left laughing with each other.
The same scene happened on any table in the six hot pot restaurants.
Basically, diners at any table will make an appointment for their next meal under the guidance of the waiter.
As for that mere four or five guan, for those poor families and ordinary people, it may be a huge sum of money, enough to feed a family of four for three or four months.
But to these powerful people from aristocratic families, it is just a number.
As long as it tastes good, the environment is comfortable, and there is sweet and not spicy ale to drink, hot pot can be eaten for half a month for these powerful people!
However, after these dignitaries from aristocratic families returned with faces full of satisfaction, before they could recover, they felt a twitch in their stomachs.
Then, there were signs of an upheaval.
He hurriedly ran to Gong's room, and it took him a quarter of an hour to get there!
Even the whole afternoon was spent in the royal room.
As for some dignitaries with better physical fitness, they began to frequently enter and leave the palace at night.
However, the strange thing is that except for their legs being a little tired when they go in and out of the palace like this, they don't feel any physical discomfort.
Only then did they understand why His Highness King Jin specifically wrote such a notice!
Although the food is good, it has side effects!
The next day, when they got up early, all the aristocratic families and dignitaries felt weak.
As for the agreement to eat hot pot, it was immediately terminated.
…
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened!"
Li Chang hurriedly walked into the main room of the other courtyard and reported to Li Xuan: "At this hour today, only half of the tables in the six hot pot restaurants in Chang'an can be filled!"
"No problem!"
Li Xuan opened his eyes and smiled faintly.
"They were all frightened by the fact that they went to Gongfang after finishing hot pot!"
"But Your Majesty, if they dare not come to eat like this in the future, wouldn't the six hotpots be unable to open?"
Li Chang said with a worried look.
"Butler, think carefully about the hot pot you just had the day before yesterday. Do you still want to eat today?" Li Xuan glanced at the butler Li Chang and asked slowly.
"this?"
After hearing this, the housekeeper Li Chang remembered the smell of the hot pot the day before yesterday and couldn't help but subconsciously licked his lips.
At the same time, the saliva in my mouth can hardly be stopped!
"Make the king laugh!"
After coming back to his senses, Li Chang couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
