Chapter 13 Opening

The man was wearing a white shirt, lying on the quilt, dreaming, and his slender body curled up on the small wooden bed, seemed a little aggrieved. He seemed to be disturbed, his eyebrows were slightly closed, he opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Su Yu, turned over and continued to sleep.

Su Yu had no idea what the situation was now. He just went to make breakfast. In less than half an hour, why was there an extra person on the bed, "That... young master, may I ask..."

The man who was sleeping in bed with his hands and feet softened, opened his eyes, slowly turned around, looked at Su Yu, with a puzzled face, and then looked at his body, and suddenly became stiff.

The air seemed to be frozen for a moment. The lying person sat up and looked straight at Su Yu. His eyes were very beautiful, clear and bright, and he raised his eyes at the ends, but he narrowed slightly at this moment, and he felt a little more dangerous.

Facing those eyes, Su Yu felt like he was being stared at by a wild beast, and the hairs behind him began to stand up one by one, "Young Master, why are you... in my room?" He swallowed. As the master, he should have questioned this uninvited guest with confidence, but at this moment he felt that he was in the wrong.

"My..." The man stood up, raised his hand, and a little golden fluff appeared on his cuff.

"Sauce!" Su Yu was shocked and raised his hand to pull his sleeve.

"No one should know," the man gently avoided Su Yu's touch, and his slender and fair hands pinched Su Yu's chin. His voice was as clear as a cold spring in the mountain stream, pleasant to hear, but it made people shudder, "Otherwise, the entire Su family would not survive."

Su Yu was completely confused. He didn't understand why raising a cat involved his life. Before he could react, the man pushed him away roughly, jumped onto the wall lightly and silently, disappearing in a blink of an eye.

East Street is very lively today, with the seafood building opening plaques, and lion dance and juggling are naturally indispensable.

As early as half a month ago, people were curious about the spiral wood ladders built at declining angles. In the past, building houses was symmetry, the boards should be balanced left and right, and the carvings should be echoed up and down. It is rare to cut wooden ladders into large and small ones like this.

Now, the strange ladder has been dried and painted, and is brightly displayed in front of the world. The vermilion railing is simple without any carvings. The wide ladder board is like a dragon circling up. At the top is a dome pavilion, which is very unique.

At the opening of the business, Su Yu asked the two kitchens to fry several large baskets of squid rings overnight, carved a flower seal with carrots, and the spectator came up to cover the back of his hand and could get a squid ring. Things that are not expensive are very popular no matter whenever they are lifted. As soon as the squid is lifted out, the lion dance platform is surrounded by water.

The capable Qingke surnamed Yuan, the prince of Zhao's mansion, was named Yuan. Everyone in the mansion called him Mr. Yuan. As soon as Su Yu squeezed into the crowd, he was grabbed by Mr. Yuan, who was so busy that he was not touching the ground, "Young Master Su, you are here."

"Where is the prince?" Su Yu looked around and hurriedly searched for King Zhao's figure. Only An Hongsheng could solve his doubts about the matter of the sauce. He knew that this cat seemed very important to the royal family, and King Zhao clearly stated that he could not disclose the news about the cat.

"I don't know," Mr. Yuan pushed Su Yu upstairs and signaled the gongs and drums downstairs to change the tune, "Go and uncover the plaque."

Su Yu stood on the stairs and looked down, and soon found An Hongjun who was mixed in the crowd. At this moment, His Highness Zhao was crowded with the crowd, happily following everyone to get the squid ring.

He sighed helplessly, and he couldn't come at this moment, so he had to take the pole handed over by Mr. Yuan, and with the rhythm of gongs and drums, he lifted the red cloth on the plaque. In an instant, firecrackers sounded, and everyone looked up and saw the three gilded words "Xianmantang" shining brightly in the sun.

The first time I owned my own restaurant, even though Su Yu was a man of two lives, I couldn't help but feel a little excited. I was just thinking about something else in my heart at this moment. This mood was diluted a lot, and on the surface it looked steady and mature. Mr. Yuan nodded secretly, gestured to the gong-beater, and signaled Su Yu to speak.

"The shop opens today. Except for tea, all dishes are half price." Su Yu straightened his spine and said loudly.

The drums and drums suddenly stopped at the moment when he spoke, and the crowd appeared for a moment of silence.

"Okay!" King Zhao, who was mixed in the crowd, shouted loudly. Everyone came to their senses and followed them with them. Gongs and drums rose again, and some delicious foodies had already taken the lead in stepping on the spinning ladder, and the crowd flocked to it.

There were only two rooms in a small restaurant with ten square tables, three walls with large windows, and counters without windows. Su Yu rented the small courtyard of the house behind to make the kitchen, and the original small stairwell opened up backwards, just for serving dishes.

King Zhao did not grab the seat, so he had to go around to the kitchen and asked Mr. Yuan to set up another table for him in the yard.

"This Young Master Su is definitely not a person in the pool, and the prince really knows the pearl with keen eyes." Mr. Yuan sat opposite An Hongjun and whispered.

Mr. Yuan, whose real name is Yuan Ce, is the most capable strategist in the royal palace. This time, King Zhao said that there were important matters left to him. Mr. Yuan worked diligently with the spirit of loyalty to the royal family, and has not yet discovered any other profound meanings besides opening a restaurant.

However, during these days, Su Yu's ideas about how to operate a restaurant are amazing. Even Yuan Ce, who is knowledgeable, was amazed. Seeing that the seafood house's business is so good today, he finally understood what the prince said was "significant" and refers to Su Yu, a talent!

"Yes..." An Hongsheng nodded while eating. He was a good cook who was rare in a century.

"Prince, I have something to tell you." Su Yu glanced at Mr. Yuan. Regarding cat matters, King Zhao had told him not to talk about it in front of others.

"I'll go upstairs to take a look." Mr. Yuan stood up tactfully and went to the front to greet the guests.

When Mr. Yuan left, An Hongxian looked around and frowned and said, "Where is the cat?" This person and cat are stuck together every day, why are they missing today?

"A person suddenly appeared in my room this morning and grabbed the sauce." Su Yu said anxiously.

"What did you say?" An Hongxu stood up.

Su Yu quickly told the morning story.

After hearing Su Yu's description, An Hongxu slowly sat back and coughed dryly, "Ah, don't worry, since it's him, that's nothing."

"The prince means..." Su Yu blinked.

"Well, I guess I'm going to go back to his original place," An Hong-sheng said vaguely, "This cat is extremely important to the royal family. Please rest assured that you will definitely see him in the future."

Regarding the mysterious man in the morning, King Zhao seemed unwilling to talk about it and urged Su Yu to go and cook.

Could it be that the sauce is a national protector? Su Yu put the ingredients that had been prepared long ago into the pot while thinking about it. The cat was so smart that it was not normal, so it was really a spiritual creature.

"Master, we should cook all our good dishes on the opening day. Why do we only serve two dishes?" Xiao Chu was a little puzzled about Su Yu's behavior of only cooking two dishes a day.

Su Yu glanced at the 16-year-old Xiaochu and sighed. He thought to himself, child, it’s not your master, I don’t want to make money, I’m just too busy to do it.

Both kitchens are very clever. I don’t know where Mr. Yuan found it. His skills are also good, but the short-term training is not very effective. It will take some time to make the dishes on Suji recipes. At present, Su Yu has to make the main dishes alone. In ancient times, there was no refrigerator, the storage of seafood was also a big problem.

In order to save materials and physical strength, Su Yu simply stipulated that only two high-quality dishes are served every day, and other dishes such as barbecue, seafood noodles, and seafood porridge are not limited. There are also "Bai Shaopin" dishes that only cook and dip soy sauce, which are available every day.

After a busy day, Su Yu returned home, stared at the wooden bed in a daze, feeling his heart empty. He habitually looked for the hair ball on the quilt. Usually, it would sleep in the middle and not until Su Yu came over, he would move a little apart like giving alms, looking like an old man who "see you pitiful and admired you for a seat."

In this unfamiliar time and space, Jiang Er was a spiritual sustenance, and was suddenly snatched away without even saying goodbye...

Su Yu lay on the bed and rubbed his arms, thinking of the strange man in the morning. King Zhao meant that the man would bring the cat back to the royal family. Could it be the royal secret guard? Why did the secret guard sleep while performing a mission?
