Chapter 497: Someone Wants to Buy My Barbecue Restaurant
Hao Weidao saw that my face had returned to normal, and he also knew that I was no longer worried, but he still said solemnly: "Don't worry, Bi Gongzi, the disciples of the Beggar Gang will continue to track down the whereabouts of the gang leader."
I didn't speak, just nodded.
"By the way, Brother Hao, how did I handle the affairs of that store?" After a moment, I looked up at him and asked.
"Don't worry, Bi Gongzi, I have already sent the disciples of the beggar gang to handle all the things needed for the tables, chairs and benches, and if you want to open for business, you can do it at any time." Hao Weidao said, a little doubt flashed in his eyes: "By the way, Bi Gongzi, I don't know what you are doing with this shop?" ”
"Oh, I want to open a deli!" I said casually.
"Deli?" Hao Weidao looked at me puzzled.
"Well...... it's a shop that specializes in barbecue and chicken." I explained.
Hao Weidao heard me say this, and nodded clearly.
I continued: "That day, Brother Hao took me to find Wang Wu and his wife, that is, they are good at barbecue, I came from Chizhou City and did not eat his barbecue along the way, and the little bean next to me is good at roasting called Hua chicken, which can be regarded as a delicacy in the world. ”
When Hao Weidao heard me say this, he immediately smiled and said, "In this case, when Bi Gongzi's delicatessen opens, I really want to come and see it!" ”
Looking at his appearance, I suddenly realized, when I first met Hao Weidao, it was because he made pizza and coffee that were as good as Hao Chushi, and he was also a top chef. Natural incense to see how it is, I smiled at him and nodded, "When the time comes, I'll invite Brother Hao to patronize!" ”
Since there is no news of the master in the stronghold of the beggar gang, then it is inconvenient for me to stay for a long time, I got up and said goodbye to Hao Weidao, but Hao Weidao knew that I was taken away a few days ago, and wanted to send someone to escort me back to Bifu, I smiled faintly and said that the entire capital is full of people from the beggar gang, if it is escorting me back, wouldn't it be too attention-grabbing. Hao Weidao thought about it. I gave up the idea of sending someone to escort me back.
When he was about to go out, Hao Weidao kept telling me that if he encountered any trouble, he would come to him, and I knew that the power of the Lu Dao beggar gang in the capital was not small, so I nodded and agreed.
Since I was out, I still wanted to go and see the store that Hao Weidao had found for me, so I ran in the direction of that shop when I got out.
I was still cautious along the way. I'm afraid that some criminals will target me. But it's probably because I have a scholarly temperament but I carry a sharp sword. The people in the market all looked at me with curiosity on their faces, just like the gorillas in the zoo.
After a short time I walked to the door of the shop, and I had the key to the lock on the door anyway. I opened the lock, pushed the door and walked in.
As soon as I walked in the door, I smelled an indescribable musty smell, and the air was a little panicked, I couldn't help coughing twice, then raised my hand and waved it casually and began to look around.
The room was still the same mess as the last time I left, but there was obviously some dust left on the floor, otherwise this shop wouldn't be so choking!
"After the imperial examination, I'll have to take some time to clean up." I muttered to myself as I looked around.
Since Hao Weidao said that he had sent someone to buy tables, chairs and benches for me, then the rest of the time was to tell Xiaodouzi and Wang Wu about them, after all, my shop was put down for them, and they can be regarded as the owners here, if they don't know the Tao now, wouldn't it be too irresponsible?!
With that in mind, I walked out of the shop and locked the door again.
"Oh, you're the shopkeeper of this shop, right?" Just as I was locking the door, there was a sudden sound of small footsteps behind me, followed by a voice behind me.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a face with a slight vicissitudes of life, a brocade robe, a certain square hat on his head, an indescribable wealth between his eyebrows, and a person who did not look very old and looked like a subordinate beside him.
"Old man, are you talking to me?" I humbly asked.
The old man bowed his head slightly, and asked with a smile: "Childe is young and extraordinary, it seems that he should be the shopkeeper of this shop, right?" ”
"Where, where, here's just a casual look, this is my friend's shop, I'm just here to take care of it." I said perfunctorily.
"What kind of business does Childe's friend do?" The old man continued to ask.
"Barbecue?" I replied casually.
"Barbecue?" The old man looked at me puzzled.
I suddenly sighed, and my heart was depressed, how do you say that these ancient people don't know what is called "cooked food" and what is called "barbecue", can it be said that these ancient people really solved the problem of food and clothing? I looked at his expression and explained, "Uh...... My friend's business is to sell barbecue, roast pork, beef and mutton, and then sell it for catty. ”
"Hmm." The old man nodded slightly, raised his hand and twisted his beard and asked, "I don't know how much silver the child's friend used in this shop?" ”
"Uh......," I said casually, "I'm sorry, this ...... I really don't know what to do. ”
"Hehehehe......." The old man chuckled lightly and said casually: "The old man paid 1,000 taels of silver, can you let Bi Gongzi's friend sell this shop to the old man?" ”
"What's that...... a ...... One thousand taels? Listening to the disdainful tone of the old man in front of me, I couldn't help but shout, you must know that for ordinary people, a thousand taels of silver is comparable to twenty or thirty years of income, besides, Hao Weidao only spent a hundred taels when he helped me buy this store, if it changes hands, it will be ten times more, can it be said that the ancient people were also extremely fond of real estate?
The old man looked at my stunned expression, as if he knew my expression, and couldn't help but smile and asked, "I wonder if the son can tell the old man on his behalf?" ”
"...... this?" Although I am very excited about this thousand taels of silver, I am even more confident in the craftsmanship of Wang Wu's barbecue and the craftsmanship of Xiaodouzi called Hua Chicken, which is a lucrative business.
The old man saw that I was a little embarrassed, and asked quietly: "Forgive the old man for taking the liberty, a thousand taels of silver may not be a lot, otherwise, the old man will add another thousand taels and two thousand taels to buy this shop, how about it?" ”
I'll go, rich people are rich in the end, I haven't said a word that has already doubled, if I pretend to be deep again, maybe I can get 10,000 taels of silver.
"No, no, that's not what it means, two thousand taels of silver is indeed a lot, but this shop is my friend's, no matter how nonsense it is, you still need to ask your friend!" I said with a look of embarrassment.
"Well, since that's the case, then please ask your friend, if he is willing to cut his love, the old man is willing to give three thousand taels of silver as a reward!" The old man said quietly, and added another thousand taels of silver.
As soon as I heard this, I immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva inadvertently, and in the blink of an eye, the store bought by one hundred taels became three thousand taels, which was thirty times more at once! Well, I'm going to have to take some time to look at the real estate in the capital.
The old man looked at the look on my face and said softly: "The old man still has something to do, so I won't bother Bi Gongzi." Then he turned and walked away, and the young man who followed him did not say anything, but turned and followed him to go.
