Chapter 743 745. Wu Kun
Shopkeeper Huang looked at his boss in shock. How could he push the business to the other side?
When the men heard this, their faces turned even darker, "We came all the way here, and this is how you treat us?
What's the matter? Can't we go to your restaurant to eat? Who are you looking down on?"
Wu Kun narrowed his eyes and looked at them. "You all think that my Wu family is easy to bully, so you came here to stir up trouble."
"You are such a funny person. We just want to have a meal, why are you making trouble?" One of the men grabbed the person standing in front and stopped him from speaking.
"Mr. Wu, this crime cannot be arbitrarily charged. We ordinary people cannot afford it."
Wu Kun looked him over and said, "That's better."
After saying this, he turned his sleeves without caring about the expressions of these people and walked straight into the shop.
Shopkeeper Huang bowed to them and followed them back to the shop.
"How arrogant," one of the men muttered in a low voice, "I think they just can't afford to lose. It's hard for a family as big as the Wu family to go back on their word..."
"Okay, stop talking!" The man who had just spoken to stop him interrupted him, "You don't want to stay in Yongchang County anymore."
After saying that, he ignored them and left with his men without going into the Tianfu Restaurant opposite.
In the next few days, the business of Tianfu Restaurant seemed to ease. The two sides no longer competed with each other, and the customers no longer sided with one side.
Tianle Restaurant was no longer as noisy as it had been a few days ago, and the waiters and waitresses in the restaurant finally had some space to breathe.
Liang He asked the housekeeper to book a private room early in the morning, and waited until dinner time to bring people to Tianle Restaurant.
"This place is quite presentable, and is not worse than the Tianfu Restaurant across the street."
After hearing what her aunt said, He Xiaoyu lowered her head, but she disagreed in her heart. The difference between the two sides was huge.
Not to mention that the house opposite was designed by Madam Gu, once you enter, you will see a different scene everywhere, which is overwhelming.
The Tianle Restaurant here is really just a restaurant, no different from restaurants in other places. It's only thanks to my aunt that she can praise it.
"Madam Liang," Wu Kun had already received the news and went to the door to greet him, "The private room has been prepared for you, please come this way."
Liang Heshi, "Mr. Wu's business is booming. He is indeed a young and promising man."
"I don't deserve Madam Liang's praise. Our actions are just small ones and cannot be accepted by the public.
Thanks to Lord Liang for giving up and subletting this shop, Xiao Le has a way to survive..."
In this short distance from the door to the private room, Liang He was flattered to the point of being dazed by the smile, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses after the person left.
"How is it? You are quite a figure." She turned her head and asked He Xiaoyu.
He Xiaoyu, "Looks a bit slick."
"You little girl, what do you know? If businessmen like them don't have a good mouth, how can they open up the market?
I just talked to him for such a long time, didn't you observe him carefully?
He doesn't look very good, but he's capable. If you think he's suitable, I'll call him over for questioning later."
He Xiaoyu looked out the window shyly, "Aunt..."
Even if they really want to meet each other, there is no need to be so anxious. Being too eager will make the women of the He family seem worthless.
I just don’t know whether my aunt acted like this intentionally or unintentionally.
"Do you think your aunt is so stupid to ask directly?" Liang He glanced at her, "Your uncle has entrusted me with a few shops here, so I want to ask Mr. Wu for advice and see if there is any business to be done."
In her opinion, her niece was still too young to lose her temper so quickly.
Following her gaze, I looked across and happened to see Jin Qianqian's carriage parked in front of the restaurant.
"She does have some skills," Liang He saw Jin Qianqian being herded into the store, "A few days ago, I thought her Tianfu Restaurant wouldn't last long, but unexpectedly she has the upper hand."
"This shows that Mr. Wu's business is still not as good as Madam Gu's, otherwise he wouldn't fall into the trap in a moment of excitement."
Many people noticed it afterwards, and many people in Yongchang County secretly regretted not taking advantage of the situation at that time.
Hearing the disapproval in her niece's tone, Liang He's face was filled with displeasure, "Girl, which side are you on?
When you go out, be careful with what you say and do. "
He Xiaoyu pursed her lips and said, "Yes."
As soon as Jin Qianqian entered Tianfu Restaurant, she immediately took people to the third floor.
Here, several shop owners nearby are already waiting here.
"Madam, the soap shop will open tomorrow. Will the noise be a little smaller?"
Lichun personally served tea and immediately talked about the opening tomorrow.
This time, even gongs and drums are not needed, and the business is expected to open quietly.
Jin Qianqian, "Tianfu Restaurant and the Inn caused such a big commotion before, so we shouldn't make a big fuss this time."
Next, cake shops and escort agencies will open one after another. If something like this happens every time, those ladies in charge will have something to say.
"Don't worry, good wine needs no bush. We must have confidence in the soap." Jin Qianqian comforted everyone and began to make arrangements for tomorrow's opening.
On this side, Liang He and Wu Kun asked and answered questions, and they actually came up with some good ideas.
People like Liang Heshi, who have neither secret recipes nor sources of goods, can only engage in reselling.
Liang He finally asked with a sigh, "Mr. Wu is young and promising. I guess your family has already found a beautiful wife for you, right?"
"..." Wu Kun tried his best not to raise his head, "This marriage matter is naturally decided by my parents. I have been busy in this restaurant these days, so I really don't know."
Liang Heshi, "They say that it's important to start a family and build a career. It looks like Mr. Wu's good days are coming soon."
With a wave of his hand, Wu Kun slowly left the private room.
"Aunt, you are too direct." He Xiaoyu was a little annoyed and angry. She waited until the door of the private room was closed before she spoke.
Fortunately, the other party had been keeping her head down, otherwise she would have really rushed out the door.
"That's nothing. I didn't point it out directly." Liang He thought it was no big deal. As a wife of an official, it was possible for her to fall in love with a merchant and want to help him find a marriage. Maybe the other party was secretly happy about it at this moment.
He Xiaoyu was so restless that she kept her head down from the time she finished her meal until she returned to the carriage.
Just as they were about to return home, they saw people coming in and out of the Tianfu Restaurant on the opposite street, prompting Liang He to stop the carriage for a moment.
"Go and ask why it's so lively here?" She knew that this street belonged to Jin Qianqian, and judging from the situation, some store should be opening.
If it were any other time, she would definitely not pay much attention.
Now she is also planning to open a few shops across the street, and she is afraid that there will be conflicts at that time, so she must ask for clarification.
Jin Qianqian had no intention of hiding it, and the people who went out to inquire soon came back with the news.
The rabbit calls and the sun rises, the golden light shines in the vast sky; the willows dance in the green spring river, the waves reflect the red clouds! I wish you all: good luck in the Year of the Rabbit, good fortune and prosperity. Happy New Year!
