Chapter 101 Appetizers
"Caiwei, I really don't know!" Cheng Fangjiao looked at her innocently, lowering her eyes to hide the contempt in her heart. She walked forward, then raised her eyes again, with a look of guilt on her face, and said, "Alas, it's because you were too impatient. If I had known that you would succeed in the restaurant that day... I would never have asked my eldest brother out for you."
"Pa." Fang Caiwei raised her hand and slapped her: "Cheng Fangjiao, I'm not done with you about this!"
"You dare to hit me!" Cheng Fangjiao raised her bright red nails and tried to hit Fang Caiwei. Fang Caiwei grabbed her hand and shouted, "Canned oranges!"
With these words, Cheng Fangjiao paused with her hand raised high.
Fang Caiwei stared at her viciously: "You asked me to poison the can of oranges."
"I tried my best to help you, but you wanted to cheat me and harm me. Cheng Fangjiao, you are great!" After Fang Caiwei left, she still couldn't swallow this anger, so she went straight to Cheng Yanwen to complain.
…
The battle between the Fang family's sister-in-law and her husband was known to everyone in Lancang County who had some knowledge of the matter.
When Xiao Jiuyue learned the news, he was checking the first batch of pickled radishes. The pickled radishes could be eaten in five or six days. As soon as he opened the lid, he could smell the sour smell with the flavor of radish.
The crisp and refreshing pickled radish is just the right appetizer.
"It seems that both Fang Caiwei and Cheng Fangjiao are not vegetarians." Xiao Jiuyue was not surprised when he heard that both of them were injured. One of them could attack her own sister for outsiders, and the other poisoned and killed someone for a little business dealings. Neither of them was a good person!
There is no bottom line at all.
"Don't worry, Miss. None of our people have come forward in this matter. No matter how the Fang and Cheng families investigate, they won't be able to find anything wrong with us."
Luo Kui's eyes were filled with excitement. She had been following Jin Wen for a few days and was incredibly excited. She said, "Miss, Jin Wen is really skilled. He offered to teach me a few moves. Miss, do you think I'm cut out for martial arts?"
As Luo Kui spoke, she also assumed a martial arts stance. No matter how the fight went, at least she looked like a professional.
Xiao Jiuyue fished out a plate of pickled radish, looked at Luo Kui and asked, "Learning martial arts is hard, aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid. When I have learned well, I can stay by the young lady's side and protect her." Luo Kui grinned, revealing a row of white teeth. Recently, it was Lianxin who accompanied the young lady every time they went out. The young lady was better at cooking than her. Luo Kui felt that she had to learn something else quickly. What if the young lady didn't need her in the future?
It just so happened that the few times Luo Kui followed Jin Wen out, she pestered Jin Wen to teach her a few moves. Of course, Xiao Jiuyue had to agree to this.
"If you want to learn, let brothers Jin Wen and Jin Wu teach you. Just don't cry and say you're tired when the time comes." Xiao Jiuyue chuckled.
Luo Kui said excitedly, "Don't worry, Miss, I definitely won't complain of being tired!"
"Miss, Manager Zeng is here." Lianxin walked into the room excitedly. She had heard Xiao Jiuyue and Manager Zeng talking about the "Hongdu No. 1 Restaurant" before. Now that she saw Manager Zeng coming to her house, Lianxin knew what was going on!
It seems that what the lady said has come true!
"That's perfect. Please ask Manager Zeng to try some sour radish." Xiao Jiuyue asked someone to bring the sour radish, and she walked towards the front hall with faster steps. With the contract of Fengchunlou concluded, the Xiao family would not be short of money for the time being!
"Miss Xiao." When Manager Zeng saw Xiao Jiuyue, he was as respectful and enthusiastic as before.
"Manager Zeng is here, but your boss agrees with my 40% to 60% profit split?" Xiao Jiuyue said with a smile, going straight to the point without any beating around the bush.
Shopkeeper Zeng smiled and said, "Miss Xiao is a master of divination. She immediately understood my intention. This is the agreement I prepared."
With the experience of signing the agreement last time, Shopkeeper Zeng almost copied the previous agreement and said, "Miss Xiao, our boss said that no matter whether it is the best restaurant in Hongdu or not, as long as the restaurant makes money, the profits will be split 40% and 60%!"
"As for the renovation and investment costs of the restaurant that Miss Xiao mentioned, my boss has a two-story courtyard along the lake in the city, which is particularly suitable for a restaurant." Shopkeeper Zeng told her the location.
Xiao Jiuyue had never been to Hongdu Prefecture City, so she definitely didn't know the directions. She listened carefully to Shopkeeper Zeng's description and had a rough idea in mind. She said, "Have someone give me a drawing of the restaurant. I want to draw it and renovate it."
Xiao Jiuyue made a rough calculation and found that he and Shopkeeper Zeng had been chatting for three hours. It was already dark outside when the two of them finally finished completing the contract agreement.
"Miss Xiao, let's have a pleasant cooperation in the future." Shopkeeper Zeng was in a good mood, especially after having dinner at the Xiao family. He was even more confident about Fengchunlou in Hongdu Prefecture.
"The best restaurant in Hongdu!" Xiao Jiuyue is very confident about this restaurant.
"good!"
Shopkeeper Zeng responded excitedly, "Then we'll wait until Miss Xiao is free and renovate the restaurant!"
Before leaving, Shopkeeper Zeng stood in the courtyard, turned back, saluted towards Xiao Jiuyue and said, "Miss Xiao, I believe that Master Xiao has been wronged. There will always be a day when the clouds will be cleared and the sun will shine!"
"I believe this day will come soon." Xiao Jiuyue raised her lips slightly. She also believed that Xiao Fu was wronged. Otherwise, based on the Xiao family's situation, the 800,000 yuan in disaster relief funds would have been spent by the Xiao family. Where did it go?
"Manager Jin, see off Shopkeeper Zeng." Xiao Jiuyue ordered. After seeing off Shopkeeper Zeng, she looked up at the bright moon. It was already mid-February. Coach Meng had already received a reply from her father, but what about Chu Ang?
…
Lingnan.
"Brother Xiao, don't worry, these things will be delivered to Miss Xiao safely." Chu Ang patted his chest and made the promise. After spending a New Year in the Xiao family, although they were all grown men, Chu Ang was happy!
Chu Ang and Xiao Jialing were close friends, and he felt that he had learned a lot. Before leaving, he took the jar Xiao Jialing gave him, which was filled with powder made from sea intestines. Chu Ang didn't know what that thing was used for, but Xiao Jialing wanted to give it to Xiao Jiuyue, so Chu Ang naturally agreed.
Chu Ang not only accepted the silver from Xiao Jiuyue, but also accepted the silver from Xiao Jialing. Adding up the two, there were thirty taels of silver!
With this money, Chu Ang can go back and marry a wife!
After Chu Ang said goodbye to the Xiao family, he set out on the road back to Hongdu. In order to prevent the jar from being stolen by others, Chu Ang cleverly disguised the jar as an urn. He wore mourning clothes on his hands, as if he was sending his deceased father back to his hometown!
Xiao Jialing watched Chu Ang disappear and said, "Dad, if Chu Ang can come back this time, it should be May or June. We need to buy more sea cucumbers and grind more flour. My little sister has put so much effort into it, who knows, it might be of great use."
"Besides the dried and ground sea intestines, this place is close to the sea, so we have some seafood that can be sent over to try." Xiao Fu sighed: "It's hard for this girl. The Xiao family is so big..."
Xiao Fu thought about the girl who had grown up in his hands, and the more he thought about it, the more distressed he felt.
