Chapter 284: To be smart is to have an advantage

Wu Ji Restaurant is very noisy, the little two shouting and wandering in the gap between the tables, some serve food, some add tea, some wipe the table and greet the guests who have just come to sit down, in short, a fiery atmosphere.

But such an atmosphere seems to have been stopped in front of the cabinet. Xiao Er took the time to look at the position of the counter, and the shopkeeper who was busy planning the plate before, I don't know when he had stopped what he was doing, and looked at one of the two girls in front of the counter with a deep expression.

He secretly guessed what the identities of these two girls were, you must know that the shopkeeper of his family sometimes doesn't even buy the account of the official, let alone a commoner.

In fact, when Xiao Er was guessing, Lin Dao was also guessing in his heart, but he couldn't think of what Yao Shi's identity was, but his identity was exposed first, he smiled and arched his hand: "The girl has good eyesight, isn't she the fourth housekeeper of the Wu family, I don't know what to call the girl?"

"My name is Yao Shi. Yao Xian smiled slightly, "I don't know if Steward Lin can spare a little time, maybe what I said is beneficial to you and me, and Steward Lin will be interested." ”

Lin Dao only felt very familiar when he heard the word Yao Xi at first glance, but he didn't remember who it was for a while, he was originally a businessman, and he naturally had the most news in the business field, as for other news, he occasionally came to listen to it as gossip, and he forgot about it after hearing it.

He recalled in his mind that no big boss was surnamed Yao, and when he heard Yao Yan's uncertain words, he laughed again and returned to his original smile, "It turned out to be Miss Yao, fortunately, I will be lucky, but ---- Miss Yao came to talk about a deal with Lin at a young age, which made Lin feel a little bullying children, Miss Yao might as well call her parents over, and we will have a good talk at that time." ”

"If my parents can come over conveniently, it will naturally not be my turn to come out. Yao smiled, "Steward Lin thinks that my words are too ambiguous, so he doesn't have the heart to talk about business?"

Although Lin Dao didn't say anything on his face, he was a little surprised in his heart, he secretly probed this woman's observation ability, he really thought so in his heart, Yao Shi's words made him feel that it was not a business with great benefits, but what kind of identity was he, he was a person who managed a large number of shops, he knew how to say it, and he would refuse to let the other party have no ability to fight back.

It's just that he didn't expect that Yao Xi actually grasped the point of his words, he didn't think that Yao Xi was young, but he really didn't have the intention of talking about business, and just wanted to send this little girl away quickly. And the reason why he doesn't have to be strong is also because he cares about Yao Shi's identity, if he knows who Yao Shi is, he won't have any scruples at all, he will only make the most appropriate way to deal with it according to the identity of the other party, both to send people away, but also not to offend people.

But ignorance is the most terrifying, he doesn't know who the other party is, so he naturally adopts the gentlest way to drive people away, what makes him slightly stunned, but it is Yao Yan's single knife that goes straight in.

"Miss Yao thinks too much, Lin doesn't mean it, but Lin thinks that Miss Yao looks too young, Lin is a person in her forties, and you are a little girl in her teens to talk about business, if this is for others to see, don't you think I, Lin, bully the weak, forgive Lin is also a good-looking person. ”

He didn't admit it, and Yao Xi didn't continue to pursue this issue, but said: "Steward Lin is a person who has seen the world, and there are countless businesses in his hands, so I know that your appetite must be Diao, I admit that I can't talk about any big business, but it's not an ordinary ordinary small business, so what I mean by that is actually to let Steward Lin judge after listening to it, if you think it's feasible, then it's good, let's cooperate happily, if you don't think it's possible, then it's Steward Lin's mouth is really tricky." ”

Lin Dao couldn't laugh or cry: "Miss Yao's mouth is very sharp-toothed, it's not a big business, it's not a small business, Lin is not a mouthy person, since the girl really wants to talk sincerely, then Miss Yao's private room on the second floor, please." ”

Because of what Yao Xian said just now, Lin Dao was already very curious about what she wanted to talk about. He asked Xiao Er to stand guard in front of the counter temporarily, and he took Yao Xi and Lan Xin to the second floor.

The three of them came to the second floor and chose an empty private room, and as soon as they sat down, Xiao Er came up with tea. After Xiao Er stepped back, Lin Dao asked directly: "What kind of business does Miss Yao want to talk about?" Now that he is ready to talk about business, he will no longer talk around the bush, and the look on his face has changed, faint, calm, and wise.

The expression on Yao Yan's face has never changed since she entered the door, she smiled slightly, but her eyes were deep, if she didn't stare at it carefully, she couldn't easily find out what was hidden under those eyes, she said unhurriedly: "Steward Lin should remember the Wu Ji Cloth Workshop on Donglin Street." ”

Lin Dao nodded, "I just took it back a few days ago, and the previous store used the slogan of my Wu family, but it didn't make a good profit, and this shop has been losing money, so I took it back and planned to run it myself." This means that I don't plan to rent it anymore.

Yao Xi bowed slightly: "I know, this is also the purpose of my visit today, I hope to rent that shop." ”

"It seems that Miss Yao didn't understand the meaning of Lin's words just now. Lin Dao took a sip of the teacup slightly, looking very careless, he obviously didn't take Yao Yan's words to heart, and even a little disappointed, in this way, it was not attractive to him, he secretly said that his initial judgment was right, the person sitting in front of him was just a little girl, about the same age as his own daughter, how could he really believe in evil, it was a waste of time.

Thinking like this in his heart, Lin Dao already showed a trace of impatience on his face, and was caught by Yao Xian, but he didn't see her in a hurry, but heard her say calmly: "I want to ask Steward Lin, how much money does this Wu Ji Restaurant you run every day?"

Lin Dao didn't know what she meant by asking, but on such a sensitive topic, how could he get it on the surface, Xindao was really an ignorant girl, and if she asked others how much gold she made every day, no one would ask.

"It's just barely flat. He muttered, and there was already an attitude of rejection in his tone.

Yao Xi didn't care, he still smiled and said slowly: "I observed just now, you here, four or five tables can be freed up in two quarters of an hour, and there are fifty tables here, and the guests are full, and this continuous full seat will last from noon to none, that is, two hours."

In these two hours, you can receive a total of 70 to 80 tables of guests, you have a plate of home-cooked food in 30 to 60 Wen, one dish, one soup and one meal per person, in addition to the evening, as well as the morning and afternoon individual guests, as well as the distinguished guests of the private room, and excluding the cost of expenses, I estimate that Wu Kee Restaurant has an income of almost 70 to 100 taels per day. ”

Lin Dao held the teacup in one hand, and skimmed the tea leaves on his face with the tea lid in the other, his eyes stared at the tea leaves in the teacup trying to lean against the edge of the cup, his face was very calm, and he knew that this calm was just a habit for many years.

At this moment, his heart can already be described as shocked, because what Yao Xian said was almost not wrong, but what surprised him was not only this, but such a young age, but with such a clear mind, she was still a woman----

Woman, Yao Shi, suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and said in surprise: "You are Yao Shi, a girl apprentice who has rarely been seen for more than ten years, that Yao Shi of Yangshan Academy?"

Yao Yan couldn't help but smile and nodded, Lin Dao wanted to speak again, but she suddenly saw a group of officials passing by with weapons on the street outside. And the leader is Liao Weizhang. She quickly stood up and leaned down at the window and shouted, "Lord Jing Zhaoyin, Lord Liao----"

Liao Weizhang heard someone shouting on his head, looked up, and saw Yao Shi lying on the window waving to him, he saw a few words of Wu Ji Restaurant, and then looked at Yao Shi, and heard the latter shout: "My lord's business is done, but remember our agreement, I'm waiting for my lord here." ”

Liao Weizhang couldn't help but smile, arched his hand and nodded, and then continued to move forward with a group of officials.
