Chang 'an City changed overnight.

Drunken Immortal Restaurant was opened in the most prosperous streets of each market.

According to Fang Yang's instructions.

These Drunken Immortal Taverns did not have the same name.

Instead, he called out,"

Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Pingkang Square.

Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Changle Square.

Drunken Immortal Restaurant, East City Branch.

At the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's An Hua store.

This novel name quickly made people understand.

This was a shop opened by the same family. All the shops were called Drunken Immortal Restaurant, but the geographical location of each shop was different.

When cooking, the oil could especially stimulate the fragrance of the spices.

Therefore, the smell of stir-fried vegetables was far more fragrant than stewed vegetables and fried food.

It was only the first day of opening, but it had already attracted many passersby.

In the next few days, every glutton in Chang 'an City was talking about hotpot and mutton.

The reputation of the most delicious mutton spread throughout Chang 'an.

Almost all the elites who could afford mutton had heard about it.

Nearly half of the tables in every restaurant were for mutton hotpot.

This was also beyond Fang Yang's expectations.

This was because mutton was very expensive.

This was because sheep were difficult to raise, and all the high officials and nobles had to eat mutton, which pushed up the price of mutton in the market.

Just the imperial food alone would consume more than 100,000 catties of mutton a year.

Don't think that this figure is a compliment. In the Song Renzong period, when the commodity economy was highly developed, the imperial food needed 430,000 catties of mutton every year.

These elites actually occupied half of the tables in the thirty Drunken Immortal Restaurant.

That was equivalent to more than 500 tables eating mutton at mealtime.

How profitable was this?

On the first day, the 30 shops had earned a net profit of 1,200 strings. This meant that four shops had earned back their capital on the first day.

And this situation was still spreading.

Not to mention that they could eat mutton every day, many people had to eat it once a month.

Therefore, there were still some casual customers.

On the third day, there were 30 restaurants and 700 tables. They all ate mutton hotpot at mealtime.

Li Shimin looked at the account book that Cheng Yaojin sent over and couldn't stop smiling.

"It's because of the curfew that we can't buy a third round for dinner. Otherwise, our income would still be high.”

Li Shimin thought for a moment,"Forget it, the curfew order can't be changed."”

Chang 'an always had a curfew. Every day when it was dark, the market would beat the drums.

The drum would beat two hundred times.

After two hundred rings, no one was allowed to leave the market.

As a result, many people had to go to other workshops to eat and drink.

For example, go to Changle Square and Pingkang Square.

Therefore, they had to plan ahead. They had to start going home an hour before dark.

If they were delayed by something, they could only stay in the market.

No one would go home for the sake of mutton. After all, mutton hotpot was not a beautiful woman.

Other than everyone's passion for mutton hotpot, what was even more surprising was that…

The wok was on fire.

In the beginning, everyone ate mutton and did not care about stir-fried vegetables at all.

However, some people still ordered stir-fried vegetables and side dishes. After all, mutton was too expensive.

As a result, many people became addicted to stir-frying after trying it.

Many people ate mutton and ordered some stir-fried vegetables to serve on the table.

Moreover, there were some people who didn't even like to eat mutton. They just wanted to cook at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant.

A minor official from the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs, Helian Ronghe, held a wine glass."Everyone, come, come. It's rare for you to come to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant. You must drink a few cups of immortal wine.”

"This Wuliang Ye is really delicious."

The businessman at the same table: " Unfortunately, this Wuliang Liquor is not for sale yet. If it is for sale, I will definitely buy ten jars and send them back to my hometown so that my father can have a taste."”

"Haha, everyone should save on this. The fragrance of this wine is rich, and the taste of the wine is much stronger than other wines. It's very easy to get drunk.”

"Don't get drunk before you finish the mutton. I have a good tolerance for alcohol, so I'll send you home.”

These people sounded like they were from Luoyang. Although their identities were different, they were all from the same village.

Presumably, they knew each other back in Luoyang.

Helian Ronghe, as the highest official among them, was naturally the backbone."Then drink less. When you're full, drink slowly.”

Merchant: " This Drunken Immortal Restaurant has so many new things. Because of the mutton, this Drunken Immortal Restaurant has tables that are four feet high instead of two feet. Moreover, you have to sit on stools."”

"This is much more comfortable than kneeling at a stall to eat, haha."”

Helian Ronghe: " These have been used by the Hu for more than a hundred years. However, the Hu only have small stools. There are very few such long stools, tall stools, or chairs.”

"Tomorrow, I'll get the carpenter to make a set of tables and put one in my living room.”

"Yes, yes, yes. We can also eat mutton hotpot at home.”

"Then it won't be so delicious. The pot at home is inconvenient, and the craftsmanship isn't so good. This sauce isn't so good either.”

"I really don't know who came up with this method.”

"The boss of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant must have earned a lot.”

"I'm telling you, don't spread the news." Helian Ronghe whispered.”

"Oh? Is there an inside story?"

Helian Ronghe: " In the east of Chang 'an City, a new furnace that is fifty to sixty feet high was built. It is used to make iron. These pots were made there. I heard that General Cheng Zhijie went to the Ministry of Revenue to do the paperwork to make iron."”

"It seems that General Cheng is involved in this business."”

At the table next to them, Fang Yang looked at Cheng Dali and Li Congming, who had their heads lowered."Yo, your dad is actually related to Cheng Yaojin? Tsk tsk, no wonder the business was so big.”

Cheng Dali heaved a sigh of relief and laughed."Teacher, there are many ways to do business.”
