157 Chain Operations
Liu Xuanchen looked at the lush vines that unveiled, and he couldn't return to his senses for a long time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
boasted that he had seen countless beauties, but compared to those in front of him, he was only a glance.
Liu Xuanchen thought of his biological sister Liu Xuanqin, the little sister is the first beauty in Beichen, and her beauty is well known.
But compared to the lush vines in front of him, the color is still slightly inferior.
After Yu Manman finished introducing herself, seeing Liu Xuanchen staring at herself blankly and not speaking, she couldn't help frowning lightly and said in a displeased tone:
"Liu Gongzi has seen enough?"
Liu Xuanchen didn't hear Yu Manman's words, but still looked at Yu Manman fixedly without saying a word.
Xu Li sat on the seat and drank tea leisurely, just listening quietly to the conversation between the two.
But seeing that at this time, Liu Xuanchen just looked at his cousin blankly, and Yu Manman's face became darker and darker, so he had to put down the teacup to enliven the atmosphere.
cleared his throat and smiled loudly at Liu Xuanchen, who was sitting on the right:
"Brother Liu, come back to your senses, come back to your senses, if you don't come back to your senses, my cousin will be scared away by you!"
Xu Li's loud voice suddenly pulled Liu Xuanchen out of his thoughts.
When he came back to his senses and saw Yu Manman on the other side looking at him with a dark face, Liu Xuanchen couldn't help but secretly blame himself for being distracted, and he must have made the beautiful woman angry again.
Secretly sighed, adjusted his thoughts, and then whispered to Yu Manman:
"Girl, I was rude just now, if you annoy the girl, I hope you will forgive me"
"I hope that the son will not be rude again, not every daughter's family likes to be watched by men," Yu Manman said coldly and sarcastically.
"Yes, it's abrupt, I must change my past mistakes and promise not to make the girl unhappy again" Liu Xuanchen nodded yes.
Seeing Liu Xuanchen's attitude so humble, the anger on Yu Manman's face couldn't help but dissipate a little. I didn't say much at the moment, just quietly bowed my head and drank tea.
Liu Xuanchen saw that Yu Manman no longer blamed himself, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking that Xu Li called Yu Manman's cousin, he couldn't help but turn his head and wonder at Xu Li:
"Brother Xu, what cousin did you just say? But I remember that you don't seem to have a cousin, the concubine only has three princes and one son under her knees, and then you only have ......"
Hearing this, Yu Manman, who was drinking tea, took a meal in his hand, but it was only for a moment before he continued to drink tea with his head down.
Xu Li glanced at Yu Manman, and then sighed and said:
"Yes, my cousin was born to my little aunt, but my little aunt broke off relations with the family more than ten years ago. We only met a while ago, so you didn't know I had a cousin."
"I see," Liu Xuanchen suddenly realized.
"Hmm," Xu Li nodded.
"Then where is your cousin from?" Liu Xuanchen then asked.
Hearing this, Yu Manman and Xu Li's foreheads slid through several black lines at the same time, and they didn't know what to say to this Liu Xuanchen.
But after all, it was his friend, Xu Li took a few deep breaths and said:
"Brother Liu, my cousin has already said that she is the eldest daughter of the Taishou Mansion, why did you ask again?"
"Uh..., I'm sorry, I just forgot to listen" Liu Xuanchen was embarrassed for a while.
"Tut-tut, I see that you are all looking at my cousin," Xu Li pouted.
When Liu Xuanchen heard this, the embarrassment on his face couldn't help but deepen.
"Cousin......"
Yu Manman's tone was a little displeased, and he didn't like others to make fun of him.
Seeing this, Xu Li immediately said to Liu Xuanchen:
"Brother Liu, I'm here to introduce you to a grand introduction, you have to listen carefully. This is my cousin, whose maiden name is Yu Manman, and she is the eldest daughter of the Taishou Mansion."
"Yes, yes, I remember," Liu Xuanchen nodded his head and said seriously.
Xu Li nodded with satisfaction, and then turned his head to Yu Manman and said:
"Cousin, this is the second son of the Taishi Mansion, my best friend, and a business partner for many years."
Hearing this, Yu Manman raised his head and said in confusion:
"Liu Gongzi is also a businessman?"
When Liu Xuanchen heard this, a touch of embarrassment appeared in his eyes, for fear that Yu Manman would look down on him because of this.
Xu Li could see what Liu Xuanchen was thinking at a glance, and he thought that Yu Manman would look down on businessmen just like himself.
A smile appeared on Qingjun's face, and he shook his head at Liu Xuanchen and said:
"Brother Liu, don't worry too much, cousin, she is not one of those ordinary people, maybe she can tell you some opinions"
Hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Liu Xuanchen's eyes, and he opened his mouth in disbelief:
"Brother Xu, are you serious?"
"Well, really" Xu Li nodded.
Seeing this, Liu Xuanchen was overjoyed, looked at Yu Manman's eyes, and couldn't help but be gentle again.
thought about his business, and then said softly to Yu Manman:
"In Xia Bucai, he runs a restaurant, a tea house, a silk shop, a pawnshop and a rice shop"
"Oh, it turns out that Liu Gongzi has done so many industries" Yu Manman nodded clearly.
Liu Xuanchen nodded implicitly, but Xu Li refused to let it go, and continued to Yu Manman:
"Cousin, don't think it's as simple as Brother Liu said, his industry has actually spread to all parts of the country. Take the restaurant as an example, the drunken building where we are now is in his name, and then in other places in Beichen, from the city to the small town, there are the same drunken buildings."
"I see, is Liu Gongzi doing a chain business?" Yu Manman suddenly realized.
"Chain?"
Hearing this, Liu Xuanchen and Xu Li glanced at each other, and then they both looked at Yu Manman blankly.
Seeing this, Yu Manman remembered that this was ancient times, and the ancients did not have the concept of chain management.
couldn't help frowning and thinking about how to make the two of them understand their words.
He lowered his eyebrows and thought about it, and then said unhurriedly:
"A chain is the same store name, the same decoration style and facilities, as well as the ingredients, taste, and management methods."
"Yes, isn't that what Brother Liu's restaurant is?" Xu Li looked at Liu Xuanchen and shouted.
Liu Xuanchen frowned slightly, and looked at Yu Manman suspiciously:
"Well, what Miss Yu said is indeed the same as my idea, but is this idea called a chain? Why is it called a chain? ”
"Yes, cousin, why do you call it a chain?" Xu Li was puzzled.
Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed in Yu Manman's eyes, blaming himself for accidentally saying modern words, in ancient times, a place full of human spirits, he had to find a way to explain.
secretly had a headache, gritted his teeth and explained:
"I'm just thinking about it, don't you think those shops that sell keys just string these locks together? The exact same keys are connected together, so it's called a chain, and I'm just a whim......"
Yu Manman felt that he was about to be unable to make it up, but when Xu Li and Liu Xuanchen heard this, they all looked like they had suddenly realized.
Xu Li couldn't help but look up and laugh, looked at Yu Manman and boasted:
"Cousin, you're so smart to come up with this term."
"My cousin praised it falsely, and I just said it casually......" Yu Manman's face was red, and the whole person was a little embarrassed.
The red-faced Yu Manman looked at Liu Xuanchen's eyes, not a beautiful beauty.
