This mountain is mine

In early autumn, the weather is as hot as ever, with one autumn rain and one cold, and the autumn rain has not yet fallen. Therefore, although autumn has entered, Cangzhou has not brought a little bit of coolness.

Some hot and unbearable men are shirtless, sitting in groups of twos and threes in teahouses, under the shade of trees or under the shaded eaves, reading newspapers and talking loudly.

"You said that the harvest in the south is not good, so isn't the price of rice going up this year?" The men saw the news in the newspaper and guessed that the price of rice this year would increase.

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and stock up on more while the price hasn't increased!" A man in a hurry couldn't wait to go home and get money to buy rice.

"Confused? You don't eat rice, we eat pasta!" A man laughed at him.

"That's right, why am I so anxious!" The man patted his head annoyedly, his face suddenly enlightened.

"I think you are stupid, oops, let's not talk, let's look at other things." The man with the newspaper in his hand continued to look down, no, he shouted in surprise. "Look, the notice here says that the North and South Theater near the academy will open in three days, and there will be a Taoist descending the mountain. On the opening day, all tea will be free!"

"I understand that Taoist priests go down the mountain, my daughter-in-law will try it, but what is this North-South Theater?"

"Who knows, you'll know if you go to see it when the time comes. Anyway, it's ten cents for an adult and five cents for a child. It's not expensive. It's good to go and have a look."

……

With the spread of the new issue of Newspaper, the news that the North and South Theater will be opened has spread, and the streets and alleys are talking about this novel thing.They had only seen the theater, and were very new to the theater they had never heard of.

It's no wonder that so many people know that Zhao Yishen and the others not only published the news in the news newspaper, but also held activities in the North and South restaurants, and as long as the guests bought enough, they would get free tickets.

In everyone's long-awaited, North-South Theater finally opened.On the opening day, Shenyang Qing and the others set off a long string of firecrackers, and some people beat gongs and drums.

Whenever a theater troupe comes to perform in the city, not only the people in the city, but also the people in the country will invite friends and companions to join in the fun.They, who had learned the news from the newspaper, were no exception this time, and they brought their family here early that day. Because of this, the restaurant business in the city was more prosperous than usual.

As soon as you enter the door, the first thing that catches your eyes is the spacious lobby and the very grand layout. The style of the whole theater is simple but grand, making people feel comfortable just looking at it.The tables and chairs are all new, and the floor is very clean. They are worried about getting dirty when they step on it.

Not long after it opened, a lot of people flooded into the theater, and there were not enough seats, so they stood wherever there was space. Fortunately, people from the theater went to borrow a lot of benches and came back, and everyone squeezed so hard that everyone could get a seat.

Before the play started, the audience began chatting, and those who were familiar and unfamiliar could become acquaintances when chatting.

"What's this?" A piece of exquisite cardboard on the table attracted everyone's attention. They picked it up and saw that it was a menu.

Each menu was made by Zhao Yixin himself, and it took several days to complete it.

The menu is divided into two parts, one for tea and the other for food.Teas include Luo Han Guo tea, barley tea, green tea and other tea drinks, as well as fruit juices and drinks.For food, there are fried chicken, pumpkin pie, sweet potato balls, shredded taro, potato chips, etc... It is also dazzling, I don’t know how to choose, I want to eat everything but I can’t eat so much.

"It would be great if I could have a little of everything." Some customers were struggling with something.

"Our food can be served on a platter, just tell us what you want to eat, sir." Zhao Yixin happened to pass by, so he said to the guest.

"It's really great, can you give me some of each, I want to try!" The guest said in surprise.

"Of course, I'll ask someone to make you a whole platter." After getting the nod from the guest, Zhao Yixin wrote it down and prepared to pass it to the kitchen.

However, before he left, he was called over by other guests. After hearing Zhao Yixin's words, they also wanted the whole platter. Zhao Yixin wrote down one by one, and then returned to the back kitchen.

"One table and two tables... need all platters!" Zhao Yixin inserted the list in the newspaper while reporting, so that the people in the kitchen could see at a glance and know what the guests wanted at which table.

"Okay!" Lao Liu and the other men got ready neatly, and arranged the fried chicken and other things that had just come out of the pot on separate plates. Put a little of each food, and soon the big plate was full.

The buddies handed out the finished platters to the guests, and when they came in the eyes of the guests were all on them...the big plates in their hands.

Oh, it's so fragrant, so attractive!Breathing greedily the fragrance floating in the air, the saliva almost came out.These are really deep-fried, but I am really willing to use oil. How much oil do I need to make it so fragrant?

Oil has always been expensive, and most people are reluctant to spend such a large amount of oil when they buy it. They only put a little in every cooking, and only use more during the Chinese New Year. Usually they are reluctant to fry or eat with a lot of oil.I didn't expect that the North and South Theater would be so willing to use oil. Although their food is not cheap, it is acceptable.

"Daddy, I want it!" Children have much less self-control than adults. Adults can still bear it, but children can't bear it. If they want to eat, they can tell adults.

"Okay, okay, let's order a plate too." This brother couldn't help swallowing, he was also too greedy.Now that we're here, let's just order a plate. Although it's a bit more expensive, it's still affordable.

Zhao Yixin and the others took this into consideration when setting the price, because many people who come to the theater to watch the show are ordinary people. If the price is set high, there may be fewer people eating. After some weighing, they finally set a moderate price. It's not so high that most people can't afford it, and it's not so low that you don't earn much.

Seeing more and more people ordering food, Zhao Yixin felt relieved a lot. It seems that their pricing is appropriate, and many people are willing to buy it. Even the elderly want to try something new. You must know that the money of the elderly is the hardest to earn. , because they no longer value appetite very much.

"Delicious!" The guests who had already served the platter took the lead in eating it, and tasted it first under the eyes of everyone's anticipation.

The fried chicken is very fragrant, and the outside is a layer of crispy and delicious mixture of flour and chicken skin. It is crunchy after one bite, and the mouth is filled with aroma.The skin is fried deliciously, but the meat inside is not too much.The chicken is well wrapped in the skin, and the meat is still tender, juicy and tasty, making it very satisfying to eat.

The pumpkin pie is also deep-fried, and the outer layer is very crispy. After biting into it, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the inside is filled with sugar. The sweetness is so sweet that people can't help but sweeten their hearts.

Taro and Sweet Potato Balls are a small circle with taro filling inside. Just take a small bite, and the taro paste inside will automatically flow into your mouth. It is delicate and smooth, and it feels very good to the touch.

Seeing other people eating with gusto, the other guests couldn't help themselves, and ordered food and a pot of tea one after another.

While the audience was eating and drinking, a burst of gongs and drums sounded, and the audience immediately shifted their attention to the stage with the curtain drawn. The good show was about to begin!
