86_86270Shui Ling saw her coming back and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Miss, it's okay, why is it so long?" ”

"It's okay, I'll tell you about the encounter later, let's see what's in the box first." Saying that, he sat on the bed and opened the box, there were two gold ingots inside, although they were not big, but they were also real gold and silver, and there were a few gold leaves, Qin Mengdie didn't know how to exchange this gold and silver and asked: "Shui Ling, how much silver is this two gold?" ”

Shui Ling is used to the young lady asking some questions that everyone knows: "One tael of gold is equal to nine taels of silver, this one ingot is 50 taels, two is nine hundred taels of silver, and these gold leaves can have thirty taels of gold." ”

Qin Mengdie was excited: "Enough is enough, great, this is probably the dowry that my mother prepared for me, I will use it in advance, and it will be worthy of my mother to save more dowry for myself in the future, and then save some wife for my brother." ”

"Miss, what is my wife?"

Qin Mengdie didn't raise his head, and said while rummaging through the box: "It's the money he will use to marry his daughter-in-law in the future." As he spoke, he took out a few pieces of paper from under the box and opened them, revealing a silver ticket. Flattened out and counted in the faint candlelight, four silver tickets of five hundred taels, and four of one hundred taels.

The two of them were a little excited, they didn't dare to speak loudly, but their heartbeats were extremely fast, everything was taken out, and the box bottomed out, Qin Mengdie just wanted to put the box aside, and felt that there was still something. But it's really empty, and there is a sound that there is a dark grid, and she knocks on the bottom of the box with her hand, and it is really empty.

After looking for a long time, there was no mechanism, a ruthless heart, with a dagger to pry open, inside is a purse, open the purse to see a delicate pendant, the size of an egg flat, the outside is a gold hollow lantern-like frame, inside a blood-red jade pendant.

Qin Mengdie played with this beautiful pendant, feeling a little strange, the jade inside was more delicate than the gold jewelry outside, why was it covered with gold, I couldn't figure it out for a while, but I liked it when I saw it, and asked Shui Ling to find a rope to hang around his neck.

Qin Mengdie looked at the silver ticket on the bed: "I don't need so much, let's hide the rest of the ground like my mother, and we will also bury it in the northeast corner." So saying, he jumped out of bed, lifted a brick with his dagger, and put the rest in the ground.

She let Shui Ling also go to bed, and the two lay side by side on the bed Qin Mengdie said: "I heard the maid in the eldest aunt's yard say at night that my mother may have been killed by the eldest aunt, and the eldest aunt is not so good to my brother, I suspect that there is something wrong with my brother's illness." ”

Shui Ling was a little surprised: "Didn't you say that the eldest lady had a difficult birth, and the little young master was begged by the eldest aunt for a long time before she was allowed to take it, there is a young master in our house, and all the aunts want to raise it, whoever raises the young master may be the lady in the future, she is not afraid that the master will not let her raise the young master?" ”

"Things are not as simple as you think, it must not be her own birth, not to mention that she may be the murderer of her mother, can she not be afraid of helping the enemy raise her son, she is very good in front of outsiders, but when there is no one, he is not there, which makes a seven-year-old child feel healthy? This is going to be raised crookedly, and when I have the strength, I must take my younger brother out. Qin Mengdie sighed.

Shui Ling turned sideways and looked at Qin Mengdie: "Miss, are you really my young lady?" I really feel that you are very strange, but it convinces me very much, I like the current miss, but I am also afraid that you are not my young lady. ”

Qin Mengdie took Shui Ling's hand: "Don't worry, no matter how I change, I will be your dearest miss, I will take you with me whenever I want, and I will also find you a good mother-in-law in the future." ”

Shui Ling turned his head: "Miss, you are not serious, Shui Ling will never marry in this life, and will serve Miss for the rest of his life." ”

"I'm serious, but the most important thing for us now is to make money, and only when we earn enough money can we live the life we want to live, tomorrow morning I will go to that restaurant, you must stabilize Sister-in-law Li with Shuilian Shan Xing tomorrow, and look good and laugh at home."

"Miss, don't worry, it's okay to follow me since I was a child, Shuilian is a shrewd person, Shanxing is also convinced by you now, it is not difficult for the three of us to deal with Sister-in-law Li."

The next morning, before dawn, Qin Mengdie changed into men's clothes, went out over the wall, if it was dawn, it would be easy to attract attention, come out so early, run on the street, it can be regarded as exercise, and it is warmer, wander until dawn and find an early shop to eat some breakfast, this early shop does not even have buns, and it is not a money-making business to do anything in the future, and after eating, I went to the restaurant that I was optimistic about.

A two-story faΓ§ade along the street, the decoration is also luxurious, as soon as you enter the door, you are facing the counter of the shopkeeper, on the left is the staircase upstairs, the handrails of the stairs are carved with shallow patterns, the first floor is scattered, at this time it is early but there are few people, Qin Mengdie explained the intention, Xiao Er took her to the second floor, the second floor is a private room, to the innermost part of the corridor, there is a bedroom, which is set aside by the boss for his own rest.

Entering the door, Qin Mengdie hugged her fists and greeted the boss, the boss's surname was Zhang, and Qin Mengdie called herself Qin Meng when she dressed up in men's clothes. The two had been in contact before, and Boss Zhang poured Qin Mengdie a cup of tea: "This little brother doesn't look very old, I have to tell you the truth, we are not far from the first floor, and the dishes I manage are cheaper than others, but they haven't lasted for a year, so you have to think about it before deciding." ”

Qin Mengdie felt that the boss was a good person: "I understand Boss Zhang's kindness, I have my own way to bring this place back to life, by the way, Boss Zhang, I want to leave your original buddies, I ask selfishly, how is the character of these guys?" ”

Boss Zhang said firmly: "These people are very good, I use people to look at the character first, I don't make much profit, and I don't give much reward, but they have no complaints, and they work hard, especially the account Li Xin is my distant relative, he is a well-known filial son, a righteous person, the family is over eighty years old, and Li Xin earns money to support him." If Qin Gongzi can stay, I will thank you for them. ”

Qin Mengdie was happy in her heart, she solved the problem of hiring people, and the tools and facilities were complete, so she only needed to teach the recipe to the chef to open the business and said, "Then let's sign the contract today." ”

Boss Zhang is also a cheerful person, the two of them went to the court with the appointment and did a notarization, this restaurant belongs to Qin Mengdie, Boss Zhang didn't take anything away, everything that could be left was left to her, and there was nothing to hand over.

After Boss Zhang left, Qin Mengdie asked the guys in the store to close the door and hang up the sign that the business was closed for rectification. Then call everyone to the lobby on the first floor for a meeting. There are a total of ten people, a bookkeeper named Li Xin, two cooks, because of their size, everyone calls them fat chef and thin chef, two assistant chefs, big tiger and big cow, two guys upstairs and downstairs, Xiao Chun, Xiao Xia, Xiao Qiu, Xiao Dong, and a miscellaneous Jiushun.

Qin Mengdie cleared her throat: "Today I took over our restaurant, thanks to Boss Zhang's trust and recommendation to stay, I hope you can work hard to do your job as before, I will talk about a few important things today, and we will slowly adjust the rest in the development." She paused and thought there would be applause, but no one cooperated.

She drank her saliva and continued:

"First, the restaurant was renamed "Qunxianju Restaurant".

Secondly, I will personally teach each of the two chefs a few recipes as the signature dishes of our restaurant.

Third, I can't come every day, so Uncle Li Xin and Uncle Li in the account room are fully responsible for the daily work of our restaurant, and he is also a shopkeeper, in addition to the monthly money, I will give you the dividend on the first floor of the restaurant every year, I hope you are worthy of my payment.

Fourth, other people's benefits are not only the monthly money every month, but also the dividends we will give you every month according to the profit of the restaurant, which is different from the reward, which you deserve.

Finally, in order to give everyone confidence and convince me, I will cook dinner for everyone in a while. ”

After he finished speaking, there was still no applause, it seems that the guys are not too optimistic about themselves, no wonder, she is only fourteen, and she is a middle school student in modern times, she waved her hand a little embarrassedly: "Everyone is busy with their own first, Uncle Li, you come with me." With that, he took Li Xin upstairs and entered the rest room and motioned for Li Xin to sit down.

Qin Mengdie personally poured a glass of water for Li Xin: "Uncle Li, it's reasonable for me to call it so according to my age, I know that you are not convinced by me, I will be able to prove my ability in a while, this is not a problem, now I want to ask, I just said that you are satisfied with the dividend of one layer every year?" ”

Li Xin asked a little disbelievingly: "Gongzi Qin, it's the first time I've heard that the boss has paid dividends to guys at such an age, and I think it's not just me, but other guys don't take it seriously." ”

Qin Mengdie was a little angry, and I just said passionately that everyone should talk and play by themselves, and adjust their emotions: "What I said is true, I will sign a contract with you when it opens, you can't be considered a buddy in the future, and a layer of dividends can be regarded as a shopkeeper, you have to be conscientious in the future, I will guarantee your highest interests." ”。
