In front of Qiao Lan, Feng Qixiang was full of joy, anger and sorrow.

In front of people, he always looks detached and indifferent, because his facial features are bright, and his cold face is fine, if he smiles again, in Qiao Lan's words, he is a demon who charms all beings.

He came and flattered the landlord of Zhao, however, he was not moved by the enthusiasm of the landlord Zhao, and he still had a cold face, as if the landlord owed him tens of thousands of taels of silver and did not pay it back.

Walking out of Landlord Zhao's house, Feng Qixiang, who was still paralyzed a moment ago, couldn't help but be anxious, and asked, "Brother Qiao, do you want to cooperate with Old Man Zhao?"

"Why not?" Seeing that the Zhao family's house was still behind her, Qiao Lan could only answer. Her reply to Landlord Zhao was "Let her think about it for a few days", this is a delaying tactic, Landlord Zhao is on the rise, she is not good to refuse, so she has to delay a few days before replying.

"You and I are allies, what's the matter with him. If you really want to open a restaurant, it's better for you and me to cooperate, anyway, we have a lot of peppers on hand, if you want to cook, let Aunt Tong study it, your Cheng Fat Man's skills are okay, you can also participate in a kick, and you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Feng Qixiang was full of interest, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt, however, the more excited he was, the more Qiao Lan's indifference was highlighted, "Cheng Fatzi is very busy and has no time to do this." ”

"Then leave it to me to figure it out, three-legged toads are hard to find, and two-legged cooks are as many as cow hair. ”

"Oh!" Qiao Lan was not interested, and said indifferently, "Then I wish you a good opening of your restaurant in advance, and you will make money every day." ”

The two led the horses and did not ride. While talking, there were three people when I went, and one less when I returned, because Doctor Zheng ate too much and had already sent people back. There was a distance away from Landlord Zhao's house before Qiao Lan looked at Feng Qixiang squarely and interrupted his whimsical, "Brother Feng, the weather is dry, why is your brain damp?"

The fright snorted cooperatively. It seems to agree with her words.

"......" Feng Qixiang was stunned at first. Then he said embarrassedly, "Old man Zhao wants to come out of the way, his ancestors have guarded those pieces of land and have never done business." I don't have that feng shui. Second, there is no such condition. Third, there are no connections. If you open a restaurant, you will definitely lose all your money, that's all. Working with him, your brain is in the water. ”

"Who said I was going to cooperate with him?" Qiao Lan's rhetorical question made Feng Qixiang angry, "You're not thinking about it?"

"I haven't agreed yet, have I?" Qiao Lan said lightly, and then added, "Not everyone can accept the spicy pepper, the restaurant launched the pepper dishes, like the icing on the cake, like a tiger with wings, however, opening a single restaurant to buy pepper dishes, the result, may not be satisfactory." ”

Feng Qixiang was stunned, and he said so much in vain, "You can see that you understand!

"Anyway, I'm looking forward to the opening of his restaurant, and I'm going to have to cheer it up. Qiao Lan smiled darkly, in fact, Landlord Zhao's idea is not impossible, but it is just that it is impossible to make money every day, but it is impossible to open restaurants all over the country.

The two of them passed through a large blue brick courtyard, the courtyard door creaked open, and Zhu Li of Qingshan Village walked out, and there was a round and jade woman beside him, who was his mother-in-law Zhu Sun. Feng Qixiang was tall, his eyes were vicious, and he had already swept to the back of the pillar in the courtyard in the afterglow, and his face, which was still smiling, suddenly turned cold.

"Feng Gongzi, Qiao Gongzi, where are you going? Let's go home and rest. Folks, they should move around more. It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, I got a few taels of good tea before, and I was worried that no one would try it together. "Rashly intercepting people at the door, and inviting people to the house as guests, Xiangliba felt that this was enthusiasm, but he didn't know that it would be rude, and don't look at Zhu Lizheng's appearance of sweeping the couch to greet him, in fact, his heart should not be good. Originally, in the Daqing Valley, he was the number one person, but now, there are two more well-known sons and brothers, and what is even more annoying is that their place does not belong to Qingshan Village, and he can't care about it.

To tell the truth, Zhu Lizheng is too self-conscious, even if he is Lizheng, but more than seventy percent of the land in the village is in the hands of the Zhao landlord, and people hold the lifeblood of the people of Qingshan Village who eat or drink, that is the number one.

Zhu Sun also smiled very enthusiastically, she looked at Feng Qixiang's eyes, that is why the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, the more she looked at it, the more interesting it became, as if Feng Qixiang had already determined that she was her son-in-law.

The couple both thought that they were long, licking their faces and inviting each other, how could these two juniors have to appreciate their faces, who knows, Feng Qixiang didn't look at them, turned over and got on the horse, "Brother Qiao, let's go!"

Qiao Lan was as kind as a stream, and said to Zhu Lizheng and his wife, "Zhu Lizheng, Mrs. Zhu, thank you very much for the invitation, however, there will be something later, so I won't bother." After saying that, he bowed and said goodbye in vain.

Clucking, the frightening wind and the sun and snow trotted up, and disappeared as soon as the smoke slipped.

was disgraced, Zhu Lizheng and Zhu Sun froze on the spot, or Zhu Wenmei suddenly cried, they came back to their senses and saw that not far away, there were villagers A, B, C and Ding...... They were just passing by, really just passing by, definitely not to see the liveliness of the Li Zheng family.

The grain laid on the west bank is 2,000 stone of wheat and 350 stone of rice, which is not much, but a large family cannot eat it all, and at this time, it is necessary to sell some of it.

Qiao Lan has experienced a month of precarious and hungry last days, and has an extraordinary attachment to food. None of these grains will be sold, and if it weren't for the fact that the granary hadn't been repaired, she would still want to buy some of the tun.

In a word, there is surplus food in your hands, and your heart is not panicked

The matter on the West Bank came to an end, and Zhong Yunjiao was finally invited into the West Bank. He came to Lishan County in late July, and was only invited to the Yang family's big Zhuangzi to check at the beginning of the year, and then wandered in Lishan County for more than half a month, and was so neglected, he was not angry, but when he arrived on the west bank, he was waiting for him to fill two rooms full of sauce, a total of 2,000 small jars.

Seeing this, what dissatisfaction, what injustice was thrown aside, he opened a jar of spicy sauce on the spot, dug out some with his fingers and put it in his mouth to taste, but ......

"Young Master Qiao, doesn't it taste right?" Zhong Yunjiao frowned, he was able to be the second shopkeeper of Taoyuan Restaurant because of his keen sense of taste. This sauce, although it is also good, is a bit different from those last year, if these are ...... He felt a little uncomfortable, and his eyes at Qiao Lan were a little sharper.

Qiao Lan didn't see the other party's scrutinizing gaze, and said calmly, "This is natural, freshly baked, and the flavor has not yet been fully integrated." It's going to give birth to some of it. After ten days and half a month, the altar will be opened and eaten. "It takes more than ten days to get from Wuli Town to the capital.

"I see! I'm sorry, it's me. Zhong Yunjiao's face was as usual, and his words of apology were unremarkable. But take a closer look. I can still see a hint of shame.

Feng Qixiang Zhuangzi made 800 jars of chutney. Zhong Yunjiao was also extremely interested, although he was suspected of cutting first and then playing, he still bought it all.

West Bank and the Yang family's big Zhuangzi. After that, there will be several batches of sauces one after another, Qiao Lan was originally worried that Taoyuan Restaurant would not want it, but who knew that Zhong Yunjiao patted his chest and promised that he would have as much as he wanted, but he just hoped that Qiao Lan would abide by the terms of the contract and not sell it to others.

It was related to the business context of Prince Yu, Qiao Lan didn't ask much, and afterwards she knew from Feng Qixiang that there were not many industries under the name of Prince Yu, but he was the most profitable person in the country, he had five sea ships, and he went back to the South Seas every year, exchanging silk and porcelain for countless rare goods, which was the most profitable business. In other words, her sauce may also be crossed the ocean and exchanged for some jewelry or something, thinking about it like this, she can't help but feel "a big loss", it's just ...... The pepper was originally a product of Fanbang, and then sold to Fanbang, is this okay? Forget it, this is not something I should worry about.

"He is so rich, he is rich enough to rival the country, the one above is not afraid of him", "Probably not, it is said that three of the five ships of cargo belong to him", "......"

Fresh peppers can't be brought to the capital, so Zhong Yunjiao bought three full sacks of dried peppers. What the landlord of Zhao can think of, as the second shopkeeper of the restaurant, naturally can not be ignored, in addition to regretting that he can't use fresh peppers, it is also good to have dried peppers.

If the dried spicy fish can also be taken away, his trip can be called a complete one, but the spicy fish is still drying on the Yang family's big Zhuangzi, and it will take time to dry, but he can't wait, and he is busy settling accounts with Qiao Lanfeng Qixiang, and then hiring a car to transport the sauce to the dock and other loads to the north, the stakes are very high, he is not at ease to hand it over to others, so he can only press the boat back by himself.

On this day, the West Bank received 6,660 taels, which is not much, and it can be regarded as a good start. This is not a one-time deal, and the subsequent purchases have a long history.

Qiao Lan was happy, in line with the principle of eating meat and giving soup to others, on the same day, he asked Yu Dana to reward the subordinates and long-term workers who had worked hard for a month, one tael of silver per person, and double the number of stewards, and announced that a celebration would be held on the first day of the ninth month to celebrate the bumper harvest in the West Bank.

On this day, the casual workers on the West Bank, the long-term workers who walked out of the West Bank, could not hold back the smiles on their faces, which was in stark contrast to the people on the East Coast who were struggling to harvest.

"Second Brother Feng, seeing that you are all smiling from ear to ear, why are you so happy?"

"The proprietor gave each person a tael of silver!" Feng Erlang's big white teeth showed out, brightening the eyes of a blind man. As soon as his words came out, the people who heard it were all envious, jealous and hateful, they were busy all year round, and they couldn't even have silver horns left, and people received a reward of one or two silver, not to mention that there was still a month of silver to receive every month. "Ouch, that's a lot. What are the great joys of the Qiao family?"

"The owner is happy!! he is happy, and he wants us to be happy. The proprietor said that it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with all. Feng Erlang suddenly remembered that his eldest brother had told him not to talk to outsiders about the West Bank, but he forgot about it when he was happy, and hurriedly played sloppy with others, perfunctory past, should deal with the past......

However, because of these two pieces of silver, the influence of the generosity of the Qiao family has reached a new level. Lin Yuan envy the fish, it is better to retreat and close the net, and more people began to work hard again, wanting to enter the Qiao family on an errand. The people who work in the beautiful land of money also received the news, and they secretly looked forward to when the owner would reward them, and sure enough, it was better to work in front of the owner.

Of course, the people who received the reward did not take it for granted, after all, the owner hired himself to work, did a lot of work, did a good job, and rewarded, that was the owner's benevolence.
