Chapter 207: How Could They Afford Them?
“…” Xiao Chen looked at Jing Yue silently, then frowned in displeasure and walked out of the restaurant. Xing Yi and Xing Er bent slightly towards Jing Yue before they turned around, followed Xiao’s footsteps and walked out. Seeing Xiao Chen leave, Jing Yue had a breathing spell.
“Finally, they leave.” Jing Yue turned around and wanted to tell Shen Yucheng to close the door, but she found that all the maids and Shen looked at herwith dull looks.
“What’s wrong?” Jing Yue asked, blinking questioningly. It suddenly occurred to her that they might be shocked by the actions and dialogues between Xiao Chen and her just now. However, Jing Yue did not explain, but looked at the crowd blandly and said, “What happened today should be kept secret.”
“OK, OK…” promised Shen Yucheng and others, wiping the sweat on their forehead.
In recent days they were wondering what kind of identity the master has. It turned out to be Ninth Imperial Concubine appointed by Ninth Imperial Uncle himself.
No wonder this name was familiar, it was the name of Ninth Imperial Concubine.
“All right, close the door.” Jing Yue waved her hand, and went to the backyard from which she returned to the Mansion by carriage. Although Jing Yue felt that she had done nothing through the day, she was still tired.
At the end of three days activity of free tasting, “Come With Money” had completely earned its reputation. Jing Yue stayed in the restaurant almost every day to teach the cook the cooking secrets. According to Jing Yue, their dishes must be different, so the menu with endless novelty directly dazzled everyone.
During those days, the news of Ninth Imperial Uncle visiting the restaurant by himself spread out, which at once remarkably raised the fame of the restaurant. On the third day, the news came to Xiao Jingran’s and Helian Xiu’s ears.
These two big shots even came to this small restaurant. Jing Yue was also startled in the kitchen when she heard Shen Yucheng’s panicked report, but she figured that they just wanted to eat here, thinking they only needed to serve them well so she didn’t respond violently.
With the arrival of so many moguls, the “Come With Money” restaurant became popular throughout the Imperial City for a while. But on the fourth day when its price list was announced, everyone was astounded. How could they afford them?
It was robbery!
People felt like crying but had no tears. They looked at the three big words on the plaque of the restaurant: “Come With Money”!
“Indeed, you should come with money!
No Money? Just sat at the entrance and smell the fragrance.”
The high price was a real letdown to the ordinary people, but there were many people willing to spend this money. It was worth the money to eat something that delicious. If you talked about it among your friends that you had a meal in “Come With Money”, it would be something that numerous people would envy.
In this way, Jing Yue’s restaurant opened up quickly and gained considerate fame. It was a real success. Shen Yucheng laughed merrily; Jing Yue was fairly delighted. Seeing this restaurant thriving, Jing felt a great sense of achievement.
The Double Ninth Festival befell in a flash. Jing Yue finally put down the restaurant thing. All that should be taught had been taught and the rest were handed over to Shen Yucheng. Moreover, Shen Yucheng had known the identity of Jing Yue. Therefore if there was something important, he solely needed to send a message.
