Chapter 146 Business
After seeing Liu Wanfeng off, Ye Beixiu chattered a lot that night, talking about many things between him and Liu Wanfeng.
He held Zhang Juexia's hand and said, "Brother, we are friends for life..."
"I see."
"Thank you, my lady."
When he woke up the next day, Ye Beixiu kept complaining about a headache.
Liu Mingda rolled his eyes at him and said, "I hate people who drink and don't sleep, but just talk.
If you don’t have a headache, who will? "
Zhang Juexia asked with concern, "Doctor Liu, do you need some medicine?"
"No, he doesn't need medicine in that condition. I'm really impressed. Last night, he made such a mess that I still have a headache!"
I have to catch up on my sleep, too."
Zhang Juexia reached out and gently rubbed Ye Beixiu's temples. Ye Beixiu squinted his eyes and asked Zhang Juexia embarrassedly, "I didn't say anything nonsense last night, did I?"
"Nonsense, not really. However, you did talk about a lot of things in the past, and you also said that you and Liu Wanfeng fell in love with the same girl at the same time, um..."
Ye Beixiu quickly pushed Zhang Juexia's hand away and asked nervously, "Did I really say that?"
"Um."
"That's impossible. That girl Liu Wanfeng said he liked her, but I've never had any other thoughts about her. I've never even laid eyes on her. How could he say that?"
Zhang Juexia couldn't help laughing.
Ye Beixiu suddenly realized, "Okay, you actually lied to me."
"I'm more curious, what happened to that girl?"
Ye Beixiu sighed, "I don't know, she should be married! With Liu Wanfeng's family, not many girls would look up to him."
"Then let's work together to help your good brother get married and have children."
"Um."
Ye Beixiu greedily enjoyed Zhang Juexia's massage, "My wife, you are so good."
"Tell me, what's wrong with me?"
"Everywhere is good."
Zhang Juexia shook his head at this corny love talk, "Let's have a good rest at home today. We'll go to town tomorrow. We have a lot of things to do."
"Well, I'll listen to my wife."
The next day was a sunny day and we could finally go to town.
Because of the snow, there were not as many people in the town as usual.
Zhang Juexia went to Manager Yao's office to report in first. When Manager Yao saw her, he grinned and said, "I figured you'd be here in the next few days. So, do you want to come to my place or your new shop?"
Zhang Juexia handed Shopkeeper Yao a basket and said, "I made something delicious recently. I'll bring you one to try. I'm going to talk to Shopkeeper Wan first to discuss business. I'll come to my new shop later. How about that?"
Shopkeeper Yao took the basket and said, "Alright, go quickly and come back soon. I have something good to share with you. I've been feeling really depressed these past few days."
Zhang Juexia said, "I guarantee you'll be there and back quickly."
Shopkeeper Wan saw Zhang Juexia and ran up to him cordially, "Brother Bei Xiu, Miss Ye, you haven't been here for a long time."
"I'd love to come, but the weather isn't good!"
"That's right, that's right."
Manager Wan brought Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu into the guest room.
The waiter brought tea, and then Shopkeeper Wan asked, "I wonder what goodies Miss Ye brought for me this time?"
"You are truly amazing! How could you guess that I brought something good?"
Shopkeeper Wan pointed to the basket and smiled, "It's mainly because the fragrance is so tempting."
Zhang Juexia took out the roast chicken and motioned for Manager Wan to have a taste.
Shopkeeper Wan didn't even pick up the chopsticks, he just tore off a piece of chicken and started eating.
After eating one piece, he ate another. After eating four or five pieces, he exclaimed that it was delicious and asked, "Is this chicken made by Miss Ye?"
"Well, it's boring to be at home on a snowy day, so I thought of this delicious dish. What do you think of it, Shopkeeper Wan?"
"It's delicious! If I remember correctly, this should be how to make roast chicken. I didn't expect Miss Ye to be able to make roast chicken?"
Zhang Juexia thought, there is nothing I can't do. As long as the ingredients are in place, I can make whatever you want to eat.
"Manager Wan, are you interested in knowing how to make this roast chicken? It's almost the end of the year, don't you want to make some money?"
Shopkeeper Wan smiled so hard that only his teeth were visible. "Yes, of course I do! Miss Ye is a straightforward person, so come up with an offer!"
Zhang Juexia held up two fingers, and Shopkeeper Wan understood. "Deal."
After saying this, he went into the house and took out a banknote for two hundred taels of silver. "Miss Ye is straightforward, and I am also a straightforward person. Keep this banknote. I will tell people to learn this method quickly and make money quickly."
After Zhang Juexia taught the chef how to cook roast chicken in the kitchen, he and Ye Beixiu hurried to their new shop.
Manager Yao had already opened the door for them, boiled hot water, and was waiting for them.
When she saw Zhang Juexia looking refreshed, she knew that she had accomplished what she wanted to do.
Shopkeeper Yao picked up the teapot, poured a glass of water and handed it over, "Hurry up and drink some water!"
"Thank you, Manager Yao. Didn't you want to tell me something fun? Hurry up and tell me!"
"I want to keep you in suspense for a bit!"
"You don't have to keep me in suspense. I know it's definitely Liu Hong's fault. What was his expression when he heard the shop was sold?"
Shopkeeper Yao tutted, "His expression was quite varied. First he didn't believe it, then he started cursing, and then he stormed off."
"That's all?"
"What else can I do?"
Zhang Juexia felt bored. "Why doesn't he just destroy the shop? Maybe I can make some extra money."
Shopkeeper Yao pointed at her and said, "You're quite evil. Don't you know that Liu Honghe has been going crazy these past few days, asking around the streets to find out who bought this shop?"
"What do you think his expression would be if he knew it was me who bought this shop?"
Shopkeeper Yao looked around and didn't see Ye Beixiu, so he whispered, "He's going to regret it to death."
Zhang Juexia felt bored. "I'll write a notice shortly, recruiting apprentices. And then, I have to keep the master's identity a secret. In short, I want to make this as mysterious as possible."
“That’s a really good idea.”
"Build your reputation first, then do business. Once you have popularity, you won't have to worry about business."
Shopkeeper Yao was extremely envious, "I'm impressed by your business acumen..."
"I still need to hire a smart young man. I, the shopkeeper, can't do everything myself!
Come on, Manager Yao, I'll borrow your people to help me write the notice."
"I've really shot myself in the foot and brought trouble upon myself."
"It's really too early for you to complain now. You'll be busy later."
Shopkeeper Yao glared at Zhang Juexia and said, "Do you know how to speak? I helped you with something, but not only did I not get paid, I didn't even say a polite word."
"Excuse me, Manager Yao, are polite words worth money? If so, I'll say a few more words."
"You, you..."
