Chapter 872 She is more powerful than you can imagine

Zhang Qiuye had never been so humiliated before. When he stood up to leave, the waiter brought him some roasted lamb skewers.

The charming fragrance instantly made Zhang Qiuye freeze.

She swallowed the saliva in her mouth and was hesitating whether to leave when Zhou Jiu started eating without caring about his image. He held the skewers in one hand and pointed at Zhang Qiuye with the other, "Don't be so hypocritical. It would be a pity if you left such delicious food."

Zhang Qiuye finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food and started eating just like Zhou Jiu did.

"Mm, delicious! Zhou Lang, I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life."

Zhou Jiu rolled his eyes, "It's like I've eaten it before."

Soon, both of them stopped talking and just focused on eating.

After eating and drinking, Zhou Jiu paid for the meal and the two of them prepared to go shopping.

After getting on the carriage, Zhang Qiuye asked Zhou Jiu how much the meal cost. Zhou Jiu held up two fingers. Zhang Qiuye thought for a moment and said, "Two hundred coins for a meal isn't a lot!"

Zhou Jiu's eyes widened. "Auntie, what did you say?"

"I said two hundred coins, it's not a lot! What's the matter?"

"This meal cost two taels of silver!"

Zhang Qiuye was so frightened that he almost fell down. "What did you say?"

"I said this meal cost two taels of silver. Madam, do you understand my good intentions?"

Zhang Qiuye took a moment to digest the information before reluctantly nodding his head. "Zhou Lang, is this barbecue seasoning really only available at Zhang Juexia?"

“Anyway, I’ve tried every trick I could think of, but I still can’t find it.

I heard that even the Wang family in the capital couldn’t be found.

Madam, what I said while we were eating was the truth.

Zhang Juexia is very powerful, so powerful that you can't imagine.

I had someone investigate her property, did you know?

She has so many business relationships with the Chen family, the largest imperial merchant in the capital, and has business cooperation with the Gao family in Qingling City. Several shops in Qingfeng City are hers, but no one dares to touch her because she has a close relationship with the old lady of the Shen family.

She also has business cooperation with the Li family, which you should know.

Adding to that her businesses in Shunhe County, Jinshui Town, and Yejia Village, can you estimate how much money she has?"

Zhang Qiuye's face turned pale. He shook his head and muttered to himself, "Impossible! Zhang Juexia absolutely can't possibly have so many businesses."

She grabbed Zhou Jiu's hand and said, "Zhou Lang, she is the one who deceived everyone. I know her best.

She definitely doesn't have the ability to earn so much money.

Absolutely not! "

Zhou Jiu pulled his hand away angrily, "Zhang Qiuye, have you always been immersed in the past?

What's the point of mentioning the past? When you were busy giving birth to a baby for the Li family, they were busy with their business.

Not only are they busy making money, they're also letting their husband take the military imperial examination."

Zhang Qiuye was beaten by Zhou Jiushu and covered his head with his hands. He curled up and hid in the corner.

Zhou Jiu didn't try to persuade her anymore. After looking at her, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out.

Suddenly, he saw the four words "Shengxia Fish Restaurant". He seemed to remember something in his mind and stopped the carriage.

He ignored Zhang Qiuye and jumped down alone, coming directly to the door of Shengxia Fish Restaurant.

The waiter stopped him and said, "Sir, please stay. Did you make a reservation in advance?"

Zhou Jiu shook his head. "Why? Without a reservation, I can't go in and take a look?"

The waiter certainly couldn't say no, so he just explained, "All the seats in our fish restaurant are reserved today.

Sir, if you want to eat fish, you can make a reservation in advance. Let me tell you, the fish in our fish restaurant are all caught from the farm on the same day and then delivered to the shop, so they are very fresh.

Once you’ve tried it once, you’ll want to eat it every day.”

Zhou Jiu tilted his head and peeked inside, "Hey, that's interesting!

Well, let me ask you, are your Summer Fish Restaurant and Summer Soap Shop the same company?"

The waiter immediately replied with a smile on his face, "Sir, you are a very understanding person. We are one family, and we are also one family with the hot pot shop."

Zhou Jiu cursed inwardly, thinking he had missed a shop. He quickly pretended to be very curious and started chatting with the shop assistant, "This fish is so fishy, ​​how can you make it delicious?"

The waiter pointed to the carriages lined up at the door and said, "Sir, only those who have eaten it can judge whether it is delicious or not.

Look at these carriages, they are all repeat customers of our fish restaurant.

Sir, why don't you reserve a table and try it? I need to calculate for you how long this table is reserved?"

The waiter stretched out his fingers and roughly calculated, "Sir, I calculated that there should be a vacant seat in about five days."

Zhou Jiu's heart trembled when he heard this, but he still pretended to be very calm and replied to the waiter, "I will be busy in five days."

The boy didn't force it.

Zhou Jiu stopped for a moment and pointed inside, "Can I go in and take a look?"

"Sure! I'll take you in!"

Zhou Jiu walked around Shengxia Fish Restaurant and asked the waiter about some ways to eat fish. The waiter told him everything he knew.

Zhou Jiu glanced at the waiter and said, "Aren't you afraid that if I find out how to eat these fish, I'll open my own shop?"

The waiter shook his head calmly and said, "Don't worry, our boss said that although there are many ways to cook fish, even if everyone knows the specific method, the taste of each person's cooking is still different!

Our boss also told us to be confident about the products in our shop.

You must believe that no one else can make the taste that our shop makes."

Even someone like Zhou Jiu straightened his spine after hearing such encouraging words, "Your boss is really amazing!"

The boy raised his head without any modesty, "That's it!"

"I'm from out of town, and I have to hurry back today.

When I have time someday, I'll come back here to eat fish."

The waiter didn't show any impatience on his face. "Sir, I'll take you there. When you have time, please come and try the fish we cook."

The boy didn't go in until Zhou Jiu got into the carriage.

Zhang Qiuye looked at Zhou Jiu impatiently, "Don't you see what time it is? You promised me to buy jewelry and clothes. Do you still have time to buy them?"

Zhou Jiu's mind was on business, and she replied unhappily, "What are you buying? We are sisters, and they open one shop after another.

You, on the other hand, only know how to eat, drink and dress!"

"If you think I'm bad, you..."

Zhang Qiuye didn’t know what to say. Breaking up and leaving didn’t seem to be what she wanted.

Zhou Jiu was not annoyed. "Don't be angry. I just stumbled upon a shop and went down to ask. It turned out to be your sister's new shop specializing in fish. Business is pretty good. I'll bring you there someday."
