Chapter 172: Kyoto Restaurant Suffers from Overpraise
Kyoto restaurants.
"A serving of beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes!"
“Two servings of beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes!”
"Three servings!"
……
As soon as An Qiao walked to the front yard, she was stunned by the stewed beef brisket with tomatoes and potatoes. What was going on? Was this dish so popular?
"What's so great about this beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes? Why are so many people ordering it?" An Qiao was puzzled. Logically speaking, she had cooked beef dishes before, as well as many other types of dishes, but none of them were as popular as this one.
"Young lady, you don't know, but the word has spread outside. It is said that eating your stewed beef brisket with tomatoes and potatoes can make one extremely strong, and it can also drive away the cold and keep warm, and many cold illnesses can be cured without treatment." A diner heard An Qiao asking about the Autumnal Equinox and immediately responded positively.
"…How is this possible? Who spread such an outrageous lie?" An Qiao's face changed slightly, and she had a bad feeling.
"Didn't the young lady tell it herself? It's spread all over the street, and many people want to come and eat." The diner also scratched his head, puzzled.
"Young Master, where did you hear that?" An Qiao's tone became much more urgent. Someone was going to clean up the restaurants in Kyoto.
"I heard it in a tea shop, but many boatmen heard about it and wanted to try it. I heard they were going to give it a try, so I followed them here. I already love eating at Kyoto restaurants, and now it has this effect, isn't it even more amazing?" The man recalled and nodded affirmatively.
An Qiao was stunned and said to the kitchen, "Everyone, no more beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes. If you have already ordered it and want to return it, just return it directly. If you don't want to return it, use other dishes to replace it. This dish is not right."
As he said this, he quickly ran to the yard and wiped off the things on several notice boards.
It was replaced with "Beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes. There is nothing magical about it. It's just an ordinary dish."
But the rumor couldn't be stopped, and many people already knew about it.
At noon, people from the Kyoto government office came. Nowadays, Kyoto restaurant is a very popular restaurant. Since it serves food, it attracts more attention from these government offices.
"An Qiao, come out for a moment." The bailiff called out, and An Qiao immediately followed him.
Fortunately, I have become familiar with the Dali Temple during the past six months, and the governor of Kyoto did not arrest An Qiao directly.
The Governor of Kyoto was sitting in the pavilion at this moment, sipping tea leisurely and watching the gradually melting lake surface.
When the governor of Kyoto saw An Qiao coming, he pointed to the chair opposite and motioned for An Qiao to sit down.
"Miss An, excuse me for bothering you. I've heard a lot of rumors about your restaurant recently, saying that the food in your restaurant has miraculous effects and can make people extremely strong after eating it... Is that true?" The governor of Kyoto looked approachable, but the majesty in his voice could not be hidden.
"Of course that's not the case. I just heard about it today and have already put it on all the notice boards." An Qiao lowered her head slightly and looked at the prefect again, without a trace of guilt in her eyes.
"That's strange. I thought you were exaggerating. Since it wasn't done by Kyoto Restaurant, then who did it?" Although the prefect seemed to be very considerate of An Qiao, the sarcasm in his tone did not diminish at all.
An Qiao did not dare to confront him head-on. After all, her smooth sailing in the past six months was largely due to her relationship with the Dali Temple. She had only met the prefect a few times.
"I didn't know. I found out about it at noon today and was about to come and report it, but who knew that the prefect would come first. I'm glad that he came, otherwise I don't know what to do." An Qiao has already lowered her attitude to the lowest level, not wanting to push the restaurant into the abyss.
"Is that so? Then you should not leave Kyoto Prefecture for the time being. Otherwise... forget it today and wait until we go back to investigate." The prefect of Kyoto Prefecture left with his men. As he left, he said intriguingly, "I suggest that you go to see the Shaoqing Lord."
An Qiao returned a gift to express her gratitude.
As for going to the Dali Temple, she felt that it had not yet reached that point. Perhaps the enemy just wanted to make her uncomfortable.
The beef brisket stew with tomatoes and potatoes was taken off the menu and could no longer be ordered. An Qiao also wrote on all the signs inside and outside the store, "All dishes are just real food and do not have any miraculous effects."
But despite this, there are still many people who come here.
An Qiao explained it over and over again, wondering who could have come up with such a vicious trick.
"Could it be that someone from other taverns did this to the young lady?" Tong Yiyi was also affected and was standing in front of An Qiao, worriedly asking.
An Qiao smiled soothingly, "A tall tree attracts the wind. Our business is getting better and better, so naturally some people will be embarrassed. I just don't know who can come up with such a despicable trick of opposing public opinion?"
If a food maker exaggerates his advertising, he may easily be taken away by the Kyoto government.
Whether the goods are not what they claim they are, or it is an exaggeration, there will be no good results.
The Dayan Dynasty has never had any tolerance for exaggerated propaganda, so it is basically difficult to buy bad food, drinks and other daily necessities.
This was probably also a quality war fought for one's own country in order to trade with foreign countries.
"What should we do now?" Lixia felt a little depressed, wondering who had done such a shameful thing?
The restaurant was affected by this incident in the afternoon. People who came in the morning lined up to eat the beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes, and those who came in the afternoon wanted to see what it tasted like. In the end, those who came in the afternoon didn't get to eat it and were in a fuss.
"Young lady, there's a silver ingot. We'll help you check it." This was the first time that An Qiao did not feel ashamed of the wall-climbing behavior of several people in the Dali Temple.
"Can you help me check? Is it one silver ingot per person, or one silver ingot for four people?" An Qiao looked at them with a smile. She didn't really mind the silver ingots, but the topic came to this point. It would be boring if she didn't continue.
"Of course it's one per person, so don't be stingy." Gu Qingyun said immediately.
The remaining few people nodded in tacit understanding.
"Okay, one for each of us." An Qiao immediately turned around and went back to get four silver ingots. Each of these four silver ingots was worth 4 taels, and they were brought by Gu Qingyun before.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the silver ingot was handed over, several people climbed down the wall.
"Here, the silver ingot. I want to eat the beef brisket stewed with tomatoes and potatoes that is said to make one extremely strong." Gu Qingyun was the first to jump off the wall and walked into the lobby with a smile.
"Oh my! Madam An, I want to eat the most delicious dessert. I've been craving for double-skin milk lately. I don't know why there are all those cakes and biscuits. Bring them all up to me." Next came Zhao Huaiqing, looking as happy as a doll.
"Move away, I'm not as picky as them. I want to drink soup, any soup is fine." Xinhai curled his lips, indicating that he was the easiest to feed.
"It's explosive, you know." Wu Huan walked inside with the charcoal pencil in his pocket. It was said that he bought this charcoal pencil from someone else at a high price, and he never left it since he bought it.
