146 Chapter 146 Opening (2)

“Mr. Zhou (Brother Zhou).” The couple stepped forward and saluted.

“Why are you acting like an outsider? We were family 500 years ago, so calling me Big Brother Zhou is much nicer.” Zhou Huaiming pointed at Zhou Ying and said.

Then, he pointed to a middle-aged man with a mustache who was in his thirties and introduced him. “This is our county’s new county mayor, Mr. Kong. He is also this year’s top scholar.”

“Pleased to make your acquaintance, Mr. Kong.” The couple immediately bowed.

“You’re welcome. I am here with Mr. Zhou for a delicious meal, so I’ll have to ask for your recommendations.” Mr. Kong smiled as he stepped forward to help them up.

Zhou Huaiming then introduced them to the newly appointed county governor. He was a tall and thin man in his forties with a mustache. He was also one of the few top scholars in the county, and his name was Bai Jinping.

Then it was the secretaries and the advisor.

The last was the town chief, Tian Jingzhong, who was also the constable of this town. He was a man in his forties, and his stomach was as big as a pregnant woman’s.

After the introduction, Sun Hongliang immediately walked over and said anxiously, “Manager Zhou, it’s time for the opening. So…?”

“Then let’s start.” Zhou Ying decided and said to Zhou Huaiming, “Big Brother Zhou, are you interested in attending the opening ceremony?”

“Sure, let’s go together with Brother Gu then.” Zhou Huaiming nodded and walked out with Gu Chengrui.

Seeing this, the others also hurriedly followed.

When Sun Hongliang saw this, he immediately arranged for the workers outside to start setting off the firecrackers. Zhou Ying scattered the fruit candies wrapped in oil paper she had prepared earlier into the crowd.

At the same time, the sound of cannons rang out. Gu Chengrui and Zhou Huaiming each pulled down the red silk on one side. In an instant, the black and red characters of “House of Grassland Taste” were presented in front of everyone.

There were also two cartoon figures of a cow and a sheep drawn on the banner…

Everyone’s eyes lit up, and the children cheered.

After a while, Sun Hongliang stepped forward and thanked everyone. Then, he told them about the 30% discount and the membership card, “There are different kinds of food with a unique experience here. Everyone is welcome to come to the House of Grassland Taste and try it.”

“So would the ingredients used be from the grassland?” Someone in the crowd asked.

It seems so, with mutton as the main selling point. Let’s try them out and see how special they claim to be.” The person to his left answered

“Let’s go. There’s a 30% discount today, and in the future, it’ll only be 10% at most. It’s a waste not to take advantage of it.” The person on his right added.

Afterward, the three walked into the restaurant together, and Sun Hongliang quickly welcomed them in.

On the other hand, Gu Chengrui brought Zhou Huaiming and the others, including Manager Liu, into a private room on the second floor.

Finally, at everyone’s request, they were arranged to go to the chess-decorated room.

Zhou Ying personally prepared a pot of the most expensive tea sold here, the Sparrow’s Tongue. At the same time, she also prepared a plate of snacks, fried broad beans with crispy peanuts.

Finally, she warmed a pot of water for them on the stove and asked, “Sirs, is there anything you don’t like, maybe not too spicy or stimulating?”

“Oh, are there so many options on your menu?” Manager Liu asked in surprise.

“I guess so. The mutton is slightly gamey to some, and so is the chili. So if you can’t eat spice, we’ll have to arrange other dishes,”

“We’re here to taste the food anyway, so you can just arrange it for us. If there’s a taboo, you can just tell us later.” Zhou Huaiming said.

“Alright, then I will go and make the arrangements.” Zhou Ying responded and turned to go out.

She arranged a slightly spicy hot pot with cabbage, radish, winter melon, agarwood, blood tofu, white tofu, shrimp, fish, shredded pork, tofu, and vermicelli.

The meat used in the hotpot was naturally mutton ribs.
