Chapter 18: free tasting
Chapter 18 Free Trial
Liang Xiaonan didn't know Zhang Ming's dirty mind, when he arrived at the shop in the morning, Cheng Gang accepted all her mandarin fish and peaches without saying a word.
Yesterday she gave Cheng Gang 11 fish, 10 of which were grass carp and only one mandarin fish. Today she was more polite and gave Cheng Gang 20 mandarin fish. She also filled a big basket full of peaches.
Cheng just ate her fish and peaches last night, and she definitely wants to buy in large quantities today.
While she was waiting in the shop for the financial checkout, Cheng Gang smiled and said, "Xiao Liang, there are too few customers in the shop, so I'm really sorry for such good ingredients."
While talking, the lobby manager came to tell Cheng Gang that someone was selling pheasants and hares, do you want to accept them?
Cheng Gang said: "Take it, it's not easy for fellow villagers to catch game on the mountain, and the price is about the same, so I will keep it."
"Manager Cheng, Zhang Ming has come to our restaurant for dinner again."
"Oh, then treat me well."
"He ordered all our signature dishes, but he didn't eat much. I always felt that something was wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"There was a customer who ordered two dishes and didn't eat. He was taking pictures all the time. I think that person is wearing glasses. Could he be a reporter?"
Cheng Gang's face suddenly changed.
He smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, but he was really worried. Such a large building costs a lot of money every day. Without guests, it is burning money every day.
If someone messes it up again, the store is really going to close down.
The key point is that he went bankrupt, and her business was directly damaged!
"What a great opportunity, free publicity delivered to your door." Liang Xiaonan said with a smile, "Do you believe me or not?"
"Trust!" Cheng Gang was impatient, and there was nothing else to be afraid of, "If you have any good ideas, please tell me."
"You immediately put the pot and stove at the door, and taste fish soup and fish meat for free."
Her fish are cultivated by the Lingquan in Shennong Space. She is now 100% sure that as long as everyone tastes these fish, the taste will be hard to give up.
"Is this okay?"
Eat for free, don't eat him to death.
Liang Xiaonan said that eating for free is of course not eating for free, but tasting.
Zhou Yan was in the lobby. Later, a waiter asked him to send pheasants and rabbits to the back kitchen. The price was not bad, 30% higher than what the old man charged.
He and Er Gouzi took the money and came out, and saw several chefs coming out of the shop with pots and chopping boards, cooking fish on the spot at the door.
Two large iron pots, one pot is boiling fish soup, and the other pot is braised mandarin fish.
Put the processed fish on the chopping board, heat up the iron pan, put the oil in the pan, put the fish in, "wow", the aroma immediately rises.
It may be a bit too much to say that Xiangpiao 10 miles, but it is not an exaggeration to fill these two streets.
Almost instantly attracted all the shops, passers-by, and wanderers near Fulong Lake.
"What is Wanghu Tower doing?"
"It's so fragrant!"
"What kind of fish is this? Why did you make it from outside?"
Seeing more and more people around, Liang Xiaonan said: "Manager Cheng, you can use the trumpet to say hello."
Cheng Gang immediately called the waiter over: "Shout out, free tasting."
"Okay!" The waiter started yelling with a horn at the door.
"Free tasting, pure natural wild secret fish, exclusive supply, delicious, please come into the store."
"If you want to taste, please take it yourself."
Now that the economy is difficult, even families in the city don’t often eat fish. The word “free” is simply too attractive.
The first ones to come over were the elderly, a few old men, holding a birdcage in their hands, and asked, "What kind of fish is this? It smells so good?"
"Extreme wild mandarin fish and grass carp, sir, would you like to try it?"
"Really free?"
"Look at what you said, we Wanghulou spitting a nail, it definitely counts, and it's free."
"Then let's try."
The chef in a white coat and a white hat used a small plate to fill half a spoonful of fish soup, and added a small piece of fish. There was a toothpick next to it, and he took it by himself.
If there are a few uncles at the beginning, young people will eat more. When they take a sip of fish soup, let alone the expression on their faces.
Fresh, fragrant, absolutely delicious!
I want to fly, I want to dance, I want to sing!
The old man walking the bird squeezed in again: "Give me another dish."
The waiter said: "No, sir, we are just trying to eat, let everyone taste it, you can't eat it as a meal."
"Give me some more, just one dish."
"Not even a single dish, thank you, sir, for your liking."
The old man walking the bird was not reconciled. He touched his pocket and said, "I don't have any money with me now. Can I come to eat tonight?"
"Welcome to come tonight, sir." It's impossible to think about it for free. More and more people want to eat fish in the future, and the two big pots are not enough.
Finally, a middle-aged man with a white shirt and black trousers was riding a bicycle with a black leather bag hanging on the handlebar. He walked over and said with a frown, "What is this for? It's so crowded?"
Seeing someone squeeze out, holding a small plate in his hand, the middle-aged man asked, "What are you squeezing?"
The man showed him the small dish in his hand, and said, "Wanghulou Restaurant is offering free food tasting, one serving per person, only two pots, you can also take some, I have never tasted such delicious food. the fish, absolutely."
Cheng Gang's eyes are so bright, he immediately took two small bowls, filled half a spoonful of each, walked over and handed them to the middle-aged man: "Comrade, I am the manager of this store, why don't you try our new fish?" Sample?"
The middle-aged man said thank you, drank the fish soup first, smacked his mouth slowly, then took the mandarin fish meat, pinned it with a toothpick, slowly put it into his mouth, and chewed slowly.
After eating, his eyes lit up, he nodded, and said, "The fish is really good, and the soup is definitely good too."
Cheng Gang has Maitreya-like eyebrows and eyes, waiting for his next words.
"Do you have a phone in your store?"
"have."
"I'll call someone and I'll have a meal here today."
"Good, good, please."
The first customer successfully entered the store.
Not only did he successfully attract people into the store, but he also called more than a dozen white shirts and black leather shoes. My dear, Cheng Gang's eyebrows are even more curved. Aren't these the factory directors and managers of various factories in Yu County?
The middle-aged man who was the first to call someone entered the restaurant and saw Zhang Ming who had ordered a table of dishes. He said in surprise, "Zhang Ming? Why are you here?"
Zhang Ming's face suddenly became a little ugly, and he squeezed out a smile: "Mr. Wang, why are you free?"
Mr. Wang, named Wang Yaozong, director of the water plant.
A large group followed him, including the director and deputy director of the yarn factory, the director of the hemp spinning factory, and the director of the candy factory...
A group of factory managers laughed and laughed, looking at Zhang Ming's big table of food, and said with a smile: "Manager Zhang, why do you order so many dishes?"
Wang Yaozong rolled his eyes up and down a few times and said, "Have you eaten up a month's salary at this table?"
He didn't believe that Zhang Ming paid for it at his own expense. Nine out of ten he was reimbursed by Yu County Restaurant.
Zhang Ming is also someone who has seen the scene, and said: "I heard people say that the food in Wanghulou is not bad. Today I am here to observe and observe."
"Oh, how does it taste?"
Zhang Ming laughed and said: "The taste is really good, and it's almost catching up with our Yuxian Restaurant."
Wang Yaozong didn't buy it, and said directly: "The fish over there is not so delicious."
"Now all the mandarin fish we buy have fewer spines and fresh meat. Mr. Xie has eaten it twice in my shop, and he said he will continue to take care of my business."
Zhang Ming moved Mr. Xie out calmly.
"Mr. Xie? Xie Haoyun?"
