    ?

    What Li Yuan said, there is something in the words.

    It is to test, to see what is the connection between Du Qi and Li Shimin.

    Du Qi smiled slightly, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty, the reason why the boy can get King Qin to write an inscription is actually doing something beneficial to the people, so that's why King Qin is willing to write an inscription."

    Li Yuan said: "Really?"

    Du Qi said: "Of course it's true. For example, the boy's restaurant needs a lot of people. The boy specially used wounded and retired soldiers, which can be regarded as a solution to the court's affairs. His Royal Highness King Qin is willing to write the inscription based on this premise. If  If the boy's affairs are not handled well, King Qin will deal with the boy."

    Li Yuan said: "You are cunning."

    Du Qi said: "Your Majesty, this is the sincerity of the boy, how can he be cunning."

    Li Yuan stroked his beard and smiled lightly.

    He once had a very bad impression of Du Qi.  After all, because of Concubine Yin De's suggestion, he was very displeased with Du Qi.  But after getting in touch with Du Qi several times, he found that although Du Qi was young, he was extremely intelligent, and he knew how to advance and retreat, and had new tricks, so Li Yuan praised Du Qi very much now.

    Du Qi continued: "Your Majesty, when it comes to the food in the restaurant. In the restaurant, there are quite a lot of food prepared today. The boy will let you try the roast duck first. This is a dish that has only been researched recently."

    "Oh, really?"

    Li Yuan's wrinkled cheeks stretched out, showing an expectant look, and said: "I have eaten ducks before, and the taste is not very good. But the old duck soup you made alone tastes very delicious. But you  The roast duck that comes out has not been eaten yet. I am looking forward to what tricks you can make with the roast duck."

    Du Qidao: "I promise to open His Majesty's eyes, and after you eat it, you will want to eat it again."

    Li Yuan said: "I will wait and see."

    Du Qi immediately said: "Come here!"

    After the voice fell, a waitress waiting at the door entered and stood bowed.  This was specially arranged by Du Qi to wait outside in order to convey the news.

    Du Qi ordered: "Notify Liu Jian, let him bring up a roast duck, let him come in person."

    "yes!"

    The woman got the order, turned around and left.

    Li Yuan said in a deep voice: "Du Erlang, when I first entered the restaurant, I saw a group of women welcoming the guests at the door of your restaurant. These women were all young without exception.  , it¡¯s a woman again. Could it be that this restaurant of yours is still doing brothel business?¡±

    When he said this, Li Yuan's eyebrows became sharper.

    If Du Qi's restaurant actually wants to do the hook-up business, then Li Yuan will not only not show up for Du Qi, but also prepare to suppress Du Qi's restaurant.  He didn't want Du Qi to ruin Li Shimin's reputation by borrowing Li Shimin's inscription.

    Du Qi explained: "Your Majesty is too worried. In fact, this is impossible. The kid's restaurant is a real high-end restaurant. It only provides delicious food and banquets, and ignores everything else."

    Li Yuan did not give up, and continued to ask: "Oh, since this is the case, why did you let the woman come out to do things?"

    Du Qidao: "There are two reasons why these women are allowed to come out to do things."

    Li Yuan said: "What are the two reasons?"

    Du Qi looked calm, and explained: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the first reason is that women are more careful, cautious and patient in doing things than men."

    "When it comes to receiving and delivering things in the restaurant, men do things rough, and they must not be able to do them well. On the contrary, women can do these things well one by one, which will make people feel at home."

    Du Qi continued: "The second reason is that these women are actually homeless people who fled to Chang'an from other places, and were gathered together by Princess Qin. Princess Qin couldn't bear them wandering around, and sent them to Chang'an.  Call it up. It just so happens that the boy needs people to do things here, so some women are used."

    Li Yuan understood the cause and effect clearly, and praised: "You, Du Erlang, are not bad, not bad."

    Du Qi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the boy uses other people, and it is also the same. It is the same to use these wounded veterans, or these women. For the boy, it is all about making money. Just do what you can, help  Give them a hand."

    Li Yuan nodded and said: "If you are poor, you will be good for yourself, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. You have done a good job. Du Erlang, although you are not very old, you have been the prime minister since ancient times. Although I said, I cannot appoint you as the prime minister.  But, if you are willing to become an official, I can arrange it. Are you willing to become an official in the court?"

    &nbspDu Qi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the boy is still young and not suitable to be an official. It will not be too late to become an official when the boy is older. The boy knows how much His Majesty loves and values ??him.  You can do things in the rivers and lakes. The boy is young and will not enter the court for the time being."

    Li Yuan praised: "I have discovered it. Your mouth, Du Erlang, is really extremely witty."

    Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, the boy always tells the truth."

    When the two were talking, they suddenly saw Liu Jian pushing a four-wheeled cart into the room.  On the top of the trolley, there is a chopping board with a roasted duck on it. In addition, there are some noodles, as well as the prepared sauce and green onions.

    From the appearance of this duck, the outermost layer of skin is already golden, even shining golden.

    After Li Yuan saw it, he could already smell a hint of fragrance.  There was a look of approval on his face, he was already moved, and he was quite looking forward to it, and even swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

    Liu Jian skillfully took out a kitchen knife, and with the knife in his hand, his aura was different, full of focus and confidence.  Liu Jian's knife fell down, and cut the knife from the duck's leg to piece out pieces of duck meat.

    Du Qi took the duck slices, dipped them in the sauce, put the duck meat on the dough that had already been rolled out, and put some shredded green onion on it, wrapped it carefully, and handed it to Li Yuan, saying: "Your Majesty, you  please!"

    The attendant at the side looked over.  He was about to take it and taste it first, but was stopped by Li Yuan, saying: "Du Erlang's dishes, I don't worry, there is no problem."

    Immediately he took it and ate it in his mouth.

    Once in the mouth, the aroma of the duck meat, the crispness of the duck skin, and the softness of the noodle, together with the aroma of the prepared sauce, burst out from the mix, turning into an extremely delicious taste, completely blooming on the tip of the tongue.

    Li Yuan swallowed it in two or three mouthfuls, and exclaimed: "Good, good, really good. The taste is absolutely amazing!"

    At this moment, Li Yuan had a smile on his face.

    Li Yuan asked Du Qi to handle it at first, but in the end, he simply did it himself.  Liu Jian cut a piece of duck meat, and he immediately dipped it in the sauce, wrapped it skillfully in the dough, and stuffed it into his mouth deftly.

    Seeing that Li Yuan ate several pieces in a row, Du Qi was worried about Li Yuan's health, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, although duck meat is good, it should not be eaten too much. Especially in this kitchen, there are other dishes. I will let the back chef,  Prepare a portion of the rest of the dishes for you and send them to you, what do you think?"

    "Can!"

    Li Yuan answered.

    Du Qi nodded to Liu Jian, and he pushed the trolley out to arrange other dishes.

    Li Yuan wiped his mouth, and praised the taste of roast duck one after another.  He was extremely happy with the dishes Du Qi researched, because the taste of the dishes Du Qi researched was something Li Yuan had never tasted.

    Du Qi responded modestly.

    After a while, the dishes were presented one by one.  The portion of each dish is not large, but each portion is extremely delicate, which Liu Jian painstakingly made.

    All the dishes were placed in front of Li Yuan.

    Li Yuan couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and tried them one by one.  After he ate, an intoxicated smile appeared on his face.  Because of these dishes, each one tastes absolutely amazing and is extremely outstanding.

    After all, Li Yuan was getting old, so he didn't eat much, but he ate almost enough, and his stomach was already full.  He put down his chopsticks, with a regretful expression on his face, and said with emotion: "Oh, this man is getting old and can't eat much, what a pity, what a pity!"
