Chapter 201: Shocking
sighed for a long time, Gu Qiluo is not the person who can't let go of the love of children, so he got up and blew out the candles, went to bed and put down the bed tent, and lay in the comfortable quilt.
I got up early the next morning, went to Xu Taijun after freshening up, and then went to ask Fang Qionghua for peace, and when I returned to my courtyard, it was already a quarter of an hour. As soon as I entered the house, I saw Lu'er come in with a big food box, and when I saw her, I smiled and said: "Grandma, those people in the kitchen are really well-behaved now, the slave maid has just passed, and before they can speak, they have already prepared the snacks for grandma." I opened it and looked at it, okay, there are more than a dozen of them, except for my wife, who has such a great ability to make those big ladies and grandmothers in the kitchen with their eyes on the top of their heads think so diligently? ”
As she spoke, she lifted the lid of the food box, and in an instant a sweet smell spread through the room. Chunyu smiled and said, "It's nothing else, the skills of these kitchen managers that my wife is looking for are quite serious." After speaking, he picked up a piece of dim sum and put it into Gu Qiluo's mouth.
Gu Qiluo tasted it, only to feel that this dim sum was soft and sweet all over her cheeks, which was her favorite Suzhou-style dim sum, so she nodded and asked, "Only prepared for me here?" Didn't I ask them if they would make more and give some to the aunts and girls when the time came? ”
Lu'er shook her head and said, "I didn't see this." When the words fell, I heard Gu Qiluo say: "Go to the kitchen and say that this snack is good, let them prepare another box, I will give it away." In addition, send some to the owners of the house, if they feel that they are not enough. It's too tiring to do these things, you come back and report to me, and I'll send a few more people to the kitchen. ”
Lu'er agreed. Here Qiu Rong smiled and said: "The kitchen has always been the place where the most oil and water are, where are those old people willing to let grandma send someone to get involved?" ”
Gu Qiluo said leisurely: "Since you want to get oil and water, I am afraid that others will share it, so you have to work hard, how can there be an errand in the world that can easily get money?" Like grandma and me, it's still Mrs. Hou, who wants to make money. Isn't it also exhausting all day? ”
"Yes, yes, the slave knows that grandma has worked the hardest." Qiu Rong finished with a smile. Seeing that Chunyu had found a cloak with a white fox fur and a big red feather satin, she wondered, "Grandma is going to see her cousin today?" ”
Gu Qiluo said: "I'm going to go to the Baiwei Pavilion today to have a look, and then go to see Sister Cherry, I'll try to come back before noon." If you don't come back. You don't have to wait for me, eat first when you're hungry. If you can survive your hunger, then wait for me to come back, and I will bring you something to eat. ”
Qiu Rong's eyes lit up, and he immediately smiled: "Since grandma is going to bring delicious food back from Baiwei Restaurant, why don't you invite the girls and aunts to have a meal together?" After the last time I visited, the slaves and maids were very excited to see the aunts and girls. ”
"It's not the same as it used to be, so I invited them. Can you not invite a wife? If my wife really went, what atmosphere would there be? When the time comes, the delicacies will not taste good. Gu Qiluo said while tying the cloak strap. Suddenly, she stopped moving, frowned and muttered: "Yes, Aunt Xiang told me this morning that my wife is not only in charge of the family's affairs, but before she got married, she also had a lot of properties outside, and now her two henchmen are taking care of them, do you know what her properties are outside?" ”
Qiu Rong smiled: "Grandma is confused? The slave and maid only went home with you yesterday, how can you ask the slave and maid about this? Why don't you call Sister Qiuqing over and ask? Since she has worked hard by his wife's side for so many days, it is impossible that she can't find out the details of her wife at all, right? ”
Gu Qiluo thought for a while and said with a smile: "Forget it, it's not a big deal anyway, Baba went to inquire at this time, but it made people look at me and couldn't hold their breath." ”
After putting on the cloak sleeves while talking, I saw that Lu'er also came back, carrying a big food box, and said with a smile when she entered the door: "The kitchen lady asked me to go back to my grandmother, saying that they have enough people, and I will report to my grandmother when I am too busy." When the slave and maid were leaving, they saw that she was having people decorate snacks and send them to the rooms. ”
"Even if she still knows each other." Qiu Rong sneered, and then sent Gu Qiluo out with Lu'er.
I haven't been back for more than a year, and Baiwei Pavilion is still the same. Seeing that it was the owner who was coming, Shi Gui led his wife and children to greet him together, and only when he entered the house did he smile: "Yesterday, I received a letter saying that grandma had arrived in the capital, and the little one was thinking about when you could come." I didn't expect my grandmother to come today. I've already arranged that Liu Zhong. The peach blossom class sang until late at night last night, everyone was busy, and they were still asleep at this time, and when they got the news, they would definitely come to see grandma. In addition, the accounts and personnel of Baiwei Pavilion over the past year, I sorted them out once a month, and this happened to be the accounts until the end of last month, and my grandmother took a look. Also, now there are a few apprentices in the kitchen, all of them are honest children in my hometown, a while ago I asked my mother-in-law to go back, the villagers learned that I am now out, and even became the shopkeeper, they are very happy, my mother-in-law picked these children back, their parents are grateful, bring a lot of specialties, I have picked the good ones for grandma to keep, although it is just some pecans and the like, it is a ...... mind"
Shi Gui talked for a long time, and then handed over the roster and account book, and when he saw Gu Qiluo looking at it, his face showed surprise, and he smiled and said, "Grandma didn't expect it?" Not to mention grandma, even when I was sorting out the accounts, I was shocked, and the money I earned this year was more than twice as much as last year. Who would have thought that just holding a three-table night banquet would add so much benefit? Grandma knows that the little one is not a frivolous person, and she will not do something and her tail. I don't know how many people complain that we are not sensible, saying that since the business is so good, we should open a few more, I have already had this idea, but grandma and Zeng Ge'er have never come back, and I don't dare to call the shots. ”
Gu Qiluo said with a smile: "I didn't expect that after adding a night banquet, it would be so popular, and it was still in short supply." Well, I see that you also have some merchants who come here in this account book, what is the point of this? ”
Shi Gui said excitedly: "I can't hide this little bit from my grandmother." Yes, I just thought that our Baiwei Pavilion could open a few branches in other cities. Grandma look at the above records, especially in the southeast and southeast of the Yangtze River, the fame of the Baiwei Pavilion is extraordinarily big, and even the small ones have heard that there are illegal profiteers who have stolen our name, and there are still many people who have been fooled, and they are still like clouds, if our authentic Baiwei Pavilion settles in those places, grandma thinks about what kind of situation it is? To be honest, the little ones didn't think that restaurants and restaurants were very profitable in the past, because most of them were bought and sold on the ground, but if Baiwei Restaurant could open all over the world as grandma said, this alone would be no worse than those century-old restaurants with industries everywhere. Now that we have a reputation and reputation, it's time to strike while the iron is hot. ”
Gu Qiluo originally wanted to make Baiwei Pavilion into a chain restaurant, but after listening to Shi Gui's words at this time, he couldn't help but nod slowly, Shi Gui was very happy when he saw that there was a door to this matter, and he lobbied harder.
Gu Qiluo smiled when he saw his enthusiasm, promised to consider the matter carefully after going back, and then put down the account book and said: "Brother Shi still has such a ability in terms of management, sure enough, I didn't appoint the wrong person before, I really didn't expect Baiwei Pavilion to have such a situation now, but before that Yan returned to the building menacingly, could it be that it was a tiger?" Otherwise, although I am not afraid of them, I also know that our guests will definitely be intercepted by the other party, after all, their signature is to take the top route of those delicacies and delicacies. ”
Shi Gui said: "The little one also knows about this Yan Hui Lou, but for more than a year, they haven't provoked us, so the little one didn't care, but I heard from the people here that the boss behind the Yan Hui Lou is a woman, and now the two top restaurants in the capital, the owners are women, and this is a beautiful talk for a while." ”
"What? The owner of Yan Huilou turned out to be a woman? Gu Qiluo's surprise was not trivial, and she suddenly remembered that Xiao Jiangbei seemed to have vaguely mentioned it, but she didn't care about it at the time, because she hurriedly said: "Do you know who that woman is?" ”
Shi Gui shook his head and said, "This ...... The minion didn't pay attention, and I heard that the other party didn't show up much, why? What did Grandma hear? ”
Gu Qiluo shook his head, lowered his head and slowly sipped tea, how could the secret path be so coincidental? That Fang Qionghua is said to have many industries outside, and she is rich, but the behind-the-scenes owner of this Yan Huilou is also a woman, and there are not many women who can do things to this point in this era, right? Could it be that Fang Qionghua is the behind-the-scenes owner of Yan Huilou? Then she built Yan Hui Lou just to fight me in the ring? But why hasn't there been any movement for more than a year? Or am I too careful, although they are all women, but the other party is not Fang Qionghua?
Thinking slowly, here Shi Gui reported some of his thoughts on the development of Baiwei Pavilion, he was originally just a farmer, and in his spare time, he went to the countryside to sell some of his family's production to make a few dollars, and he didn't know what business talent he had, but after more than a year of training, he became more and more handy, so people are also a lot more confident, especially after getting Gu Qiluo's praise, this honest and honest man laughed a little shyly in his arms.
After saying a few more words, someone came over with a few large food boxes, the lid was still tightly covered, but the fresh aroma was overflowing, Gu Qiluo stood up and said with a smile: "Old Man Li's craftsmanship is still so sophisticated, okay, with these things, you can go back and deal with the girls and grandmothers at home."
