In a small tavern in Chang 'an Taiping Square.
Wang Chen was resting his hands on the table in boredom. His eyes were focused on the pedestrians coming and going outside the tavern.
"Damned system, why does it take three months to activate? What kind of treatment is this?”
Wang Chen was a transmigrator. A month ago, he accidentally transmigrated to Chang 'an City in the second year of Zhenguan and inherited the tavern under his name.
He originally wanted to sell the restaurant and work hard. With his identity as a top student in history, he should be able to make contributions.
In the end, a system appeared in his mind, reminding him that he still had four months to activate it.
However, Wang Chen had no idea what the system's name was or what its functions were.
He considered that although he was a transmigrator, it would be easier with the help of the system.
After all, being familiar with history could help him make the right judgment, but many hard conditions were still difficult to meet. Therefore, Wang Chen decided to wait patiently for the system to activate and see if there were any shocking benefits.
……
Just as Wang Chen's mind was running wild, two middle-aged men suddenly walked in from outside. They were dressed in brocade and looked like people with a small family background.
Wang Chen immediately braced himself and went up to meet him.
"Old Li, Old Sun, what do you want to eat today?”
He knew the two men. They were merchants who were doing business in Chang 'an.
Wang Chen had just transmigrated for a month and had nothing to do, so he simply created a few exquisite dishes from modern craftsmanship for his tavern.
Although there were not many customers because of the publicity and the small size of the shop, at least these two Chang 'an City merchants liked his dishes very much and came to visit his business every three to five days.
In addition, he was very generous. Every time, he would leave some tips for Wang Chen, so they became familiar with each other.
Sometimes, the two of them traveled together, and sometimes, Old Li came alone.
The middle-aged man called Old Li smiled at Wang Chen and said,"Shopkeeper, we are old customers. Don't you know our habits?”
"With your culinary skills, we'll like any dish you serve.”
Wang Chen nodded.
"Alright, you two find a seat first. I don't have any manpower here, so I won't take care of it.”
After saying that, he turned around and went to the kitchen to show off his skills.
Old Li and Old Sun did not care so much. They found a place to sit down and then whispered something.
Not long after, Wang Chen came out of the kitchen with a few plates of dishes.
After all, it was a home-cooked stir-fry, so it didn't take him much time.
These dishes were placed in front of Old Li and Old Sun. They were bright and beautiful, and the fragrance was alluring. It made people's appetites rise when they saw them.
Old Li couldn't help but pick up the cutlery and immediately picked up a piece of iron plate tofu. He didn't care that it was a little hot and directly ate it.
"I say, shopkeeper, how did you learn this skill? I've been doing business for so many years and have saved up quite a bit of money. I don't have to eat all the delicacies in the world, but I've also eaten quite a lot of world-famous delicacies.”
"But to be honest, I like this trick of yours. I can't help but come over every three to five days to try it.”
Old Li mumbled as he ate.
Wang Chen was naturally humble in response to the praise. He then returned to the shopkeeper's table and once again raised his hand to look at the scene outside.
He began to imagine what kind of system he could obtain. It would be best if it could give him some shocking power.
When he was successful, it would be best if he had a group of wives and concubines. They would buy him ten or twenty large houses and he would not have to open this tavern anymore.
At that time, wouldn't it be beautiful to enjoy it all day long?
Just as Wang Chen was thinking about it, Old Li's voice woke him up.
"Shopkeeper, come sit and chat with us. It's boring for the two of us to eat.”
Wang Chen responded and walked over from the stage.
He was already used to this situation. Every time these two merchants came to his tavern to eat, they would ask about something.
They were all asking questions such as " Is it good to do business in the eastern and western markets?"," The public security situation in Taiping Square and other markets?"," Are ordinary people well-fed and well-clothed?"
Wang Chen almost thought that these two people were experts in the study of people's livelihood issues. This was not a question that a businessman could ask.
However, considering that Old Li and Old Sun were generous, and that Wang Chen himself was also bored, it was good to find someone to brag about, so he would talk big every time.
In any case, Wang Chen's knowledge of history was profound. He could still answer questions that were recorded in history, so he could always satisfy the two of them.
Wang Chen pulled a chair across from Old Li and sat down.
"What do the two of you want to talk about this time? I can tell you everything I know.”
Old Li and Old Sun looked at each other and revealed a faint smile.
"Shopkeeper, we want to talk about something special this time. I want to hear your opinion.”
Wang Chen nodded.
"Special question? Tell me about it."
Old Li coughed lightly.
"Shopkeeper, what do you think of the current Emperor?”
