Instant Noodle Tycoon [System]
Chapter 8
After receiving his affirmative relief, Chu Lin didn't know what to say. He was silent for a while, and suddenly remembered the requirements of the system mission, so he asked uncertainly: "Do you know how many people there are in the whole country now?"
"Why do you ask this?" Not to mention ordinary people, even ministers in the court, many of them may not care about this question, so Zhao Xu didn't answer directly.
Chu Lin said: "Because I want people all over the country to like instant noodles, so I want to know how many people there are in the whole country."
Hearing the seriousness in the young man's tone, Zhao Xu didn't ask him why he wanted instant noodles to be popular all over the country, but said directly: "Currently, there are a total of 160 people registered in the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Accustomed to the population of hundreds of millions in modern times, when he heard that the population of the Jin Dynasty was less than 9000 million, Chu Lin let out an "ah" in surprise. Seeing him look over, he hurriedly said, "I just think you can remember it so clearly, really. sharp!"
Zhao Xu, who had the gift of photographic memory since he was a child, didn't pay attention to his words, but continued: "Although the household registration management has been strict since the first emperor, there are still many refugees who have not been registered, so the actual population of the country may be About [-] million, if you have such a lofty goal, I'm afraid you have to work hard."
It was the unregistered Chu. No household registration. The refugee Lin he said hung his head guiltily, and answered twice casually.
Seeing him suddenly pointing his hair at him, Zhao Xu thought he had been hit by him at first, but when he didn't look up for a long time, he glanced at him thoughtfully, then raised his flute and continued to play.
The melodious and melodious sound of the flute sounded again, as if illusory and illusory, the lingering sound curled up in this silent night, clear and pleasant to the ear.
It was really a pleasure to listen to him playing the flute, Chu Lin gradually raised his head, and the distracting thoughts in his heart dissipated with the sound of the music.
"It's getting late, go back and rest." After the song was over, Zhao Xu put down his flute and said.
Subconsciously following his words, he got up, and after walking a step, Chu Lin turned his head, "Will you go to the opening tomorrow?"
"Then you should go to bed earlier." Seeing that he nodded almost imperceptibly, Chu Lin left with a smile.
The next day was a beautiful day with a cloudless sky.
Apart from Chu Lin, the guest in this mansion, there was only Zhao Xu, a serious host, so basically both of them ate in the hall.
After casually drinking a bowl of porridge, Chu Lin began to look at the people around him frequently, waiting for him to finish eating before going out.
Because he has no appetite for other things, Zhao Xu has been eating instant noodles for three meals a day these days. Fortunately, the instant noodles produced by the system are improved health food, otherwise he will eat like this. worse.
"Eat well." After eating together for two days, Zhao Xu knew his appetite. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that he couldn't sit still after drinking a bowl of porridge, so he immediately reminded him.
Perhaps because of his poor health, Zhao Xu didn't like to see people ruining his body.
His tone was not fierce, but it made people obey subconsciously. When Chu Lin realized it, he picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat honestly.
After the meal, Zhao Xu slowly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, sat with a cup of tea for a while, and then signaled Xuan San to push him out.
Chu Lin, who couldn't wait for a long time, hastened to follow.
The carriage had already been prepared at the door, and after the two got on the carriage, they arrived at East Street in a short while.
Chu Lin is a standard naming waste. When he was writing novels before, except for the protagonist’s name, he had to think a lot. The other characters wished to be called Zhang San Li Si Wang Mazi, so he was lazy and called the restaurant’s name “Instant Noodle House”.
Since the table was set up outside the restaurant yesterday, the people nearby speculated that the store would open, and they were quite curious, so they unconsciously paid more attention to it this morning.
He didn't think he was a good talker, so Chu Lin didn't plan to show his face. After arriving at the Instant Noodle Building, he and Zhao Xu entered the box upstairs facing the street.
When the auspicious time came, the shopkeeper ordered two cannons to be placed outside the door, and then a middle-aged man dressed very festively walked up to the high platform at the door with a full smile.
The people at this meeting didn't have any entertainment, so they couldn't be more fond of joining in the fun. When the sound of the cannons ended, a large number of people had already gathered around the high platform, looking at the people on the stage curiously.
"My surname is Chang, and my single name is promoted. I would like to say hello to everyone here! What about today..."
Chang Sheng spoke very funny, and the audience burst into laughter as soon as he opened his mouth. Then he told a story first, that is, the story about the origin of instant noodles.
Seeing a simple little story of his own, when he said it from his mouth, it was a rock-falling, full of emotion, and Chu Lin, who saw that there were people wiping the corners of his eyes in the audience, couldn't help sighing: "This is really a talent!"
"Standing, standing, sitting, sitting, how decent are you?" Seeing him looking at him, with most of his body lying out of the window, Zhao Xu glanced over indifferently.
"Oh." Obviously there was no ups and downs in his tone, but Chu Lin's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stood up straight after answering.
Taking a peek at him and seeing that he had withdrawn his gaze, Chu Lin heaved a sigh of relief and continued to look down.
On the stage, Chang Sheng was already showing the instant noodles, and asked someone to bring up boiling water, and started instant noodles in public.
After the hot water was poured into the noodle bucket, not long after, a strong and alluring fragrance wafted out, causing people in the audience to move their noses involuntarily, and as the fragrance became stronger and stronger, it drifted farther and farther away. Some people even started to swallow their saliva.
As if he thought they were not greedy enough, Chang Sheng opened the lid of the instant noodles and showed them the instant noodles with vegetables, meat, color and fragrance, took a breath intoxicated, and picked up a strand of noodles with a fork .
He had distributed wooden balls with numbers to the people in the audience before, and it was said that the lottery should start now to invite people to come up and taste the instant noodles. However, this was the first time that Chang Sheng couldn't control his hand when facing instant noodles. The noodles were sent directly into his mouth.
As soon as he took a bite, his eyes lit up instantly, and he began to eat big mouthfuls. While eating, he praised how strong the noodles were, how tasty the beef was, and how fresh the soup was.
The people in the audience who had a good impression of him saw him eating so deliciously and said that their mouths were watering when they smelled the aroma. Immediately, someone couldn't help but took a vegetable leaf and threw it over. He shouted without anger: "Didn't you say that we were invited to taste the lottery? Why did you eat it yourself!"
"That's it!" The others echoed.
Although the noodles were delicious, Chang Sheng, who was afraid of causing public outrage and being beaten to death, still reluctantly put down the bowl, and then went to draw a lottery in the wooden box next to him while asking people to make noodles.
Upstairs, Chu Lin burst out laughing. At first, he thought that Chang Sheng should try the instant noodles in advance, but then he felt that if he tried it beforehand, the effect might not be so good.
Even though he was not hungry, Chu Lin, who was hungry to see him eating noodles, touched his stomach, turned around to eat the snacks on the table, but was glanced at by the person sitting at the table.
Although he didn't say anything, Chu Lin inexplicably felt that he was accusing him of not having a good breakfast. He couldn't help touching his nose, and then ran to the window with a snack.
After the lottery draw, the downstairs became more lively. Every time a person was drawn, there were happy laughter and boos.
After all [-] people were drawn, those who were drawn happily went to the stage to taste instant noodles, while those who were not drawn were very disappointed, but they were unwilling to leave, and insisted on watching the thirty people on the stage eating noodles in self-torture. Instant noodles.
So many instant noodles soaked at the same time, the taste is naturally more intense, and the various expressions on the faces of thirty people when eating the instant noodles let the audience know how delicious the noodles are.
After taking the opportunity to quickly finish the instant noodles he had just finished, Chang Sheng wiped his mouth with aftertaste, and began to make a final summary, saying that the instant noodle restaurant will do other activities in the future...
"Stop talking nonsense, can you go in and eat instant noodles now?"
Before Chang Sheng finished speaking, a vicious-looking young man shouted, and without waiting for him to answer, he called the people around him to go into the building, and said, "I'm telling you, it's the instant noodles. It’s amazing! After I ate it last time, I was thinking in my dreams, and today I finally found a place to sell it, let’s go in quickly, I’m going to eat ten barrels in a row!”
Seeing that "stupid son of the landlord's family" and hearing his big words, the corners of Chu Lin's mouth twitched.
Seeing them go in, those who had some spare money didn't want to stay in the audience and stare, so they followed into the instant noodle restaurant.
And on the stage, there was a person who was reluctant to finish eating such a good thing alone, and wanted to take it home for his family to taste. He asked if he could take the instant noodles back to eat. Seeing that almost everyone who wanted to eat instant noodles had already entered the building Yes, Chang Sheng agreed.
For a moment, most of the people on the stage covered their faces happily and ran down, only a few people who seemed to enjoy the feeling of being noticed were still eating slowly on top.
At this moment, people who received the advertisement and had been paying attention to this instant noodle building came one after another outside the instant noodle building, and saw the luxurious carriages parked on the street and the people who got off the carriages and walked directly into the building , the people in the audience who hadn't dispersed suddenly quieted down.
In the past, some people who couldn’t eat grapes and said grapes were sour said something like “It’s so expensive for just one noodle”, but when they saw so many noble people entering the instant noodle restaurant, they immediately shut up and dared not speak nonsense.
In the eyes of the common people, these people who came down from the carriage were nobles, but in their eyes, the ones who sent the leaflets were the nobles from Beijing who they couldn't even curry favor with, so they all brought generous gifts over.
Of course, if it was said that they came here for the sake of the nobleman, after tasting the taste of instant noodles, they immediately forgot most of their intentions and began to bury their heads in eating hard.
"Why do you ask this?" Not to mention ordinary people, even ministers in the court, many of them may not care about this question, so Zhao Xu didn't answer directly.
Chu Lin said: "Because I want people all over the country to like instant noodles, so I want to know how many people there are in the whole country."
