Li De saw that his mother and mother didn't have time to talk to him, and it happened that Li Ying came back and someone was talking, so he felt better.

"How's your studies going?"

"Brother, I study hard all night every day, and I don't dare to slack off." Li Yang said that he has a nose and eyes, and he also added some true feelings to it, if he changes people, he will definitely be moved.

"It's good to know how to work hard."

"Big brother, what do you say about me abandoning literature and martial arts, I found that I still inherited the family style of the Li family." Li Yang asked with interest.

"Father and mother are still counting on you to shine on the lintel, so put away your thoughts, you really don't have a choice but to study."

Li De expressed sympathy for this, he was well aware of the Li family's demand for Wenchen Moke.

Jiangmen sounds good, no matter how big the military generals are, it is not that they have no right to speak in the court, and now in this era, the final military exploits, and the people who have been convicted for this are everywhere.

It would be best if the Li family could produce a few prime ministers.

Li De knew what his parents expected of Li Xuan, and his thoughts and opinions were not important on this issue.

"Do you want to do something you love?" Li De asked suddenly.

Thinking that if there is a chance, maybe he can help his brother achieve it.

"I want to be a general!"

Li De patted him on the shoulder and encouraged: "Be ambitious, don't let your parents know about this, you will be beaten to death." ”

Li Ying wanted to cry without tears, and continued to bow his head to eat.

"Big brother, have you given up making food, I heard that there is also a restaurant in Xishi that is doing hot pot business, and the price is cheaper than that of a restaurant."

Li Dezhen didn't know that there was such a thing, and it was not surprising that some people imitated it because of interests.

But now that the hot pot birthday of a restaurant is in full swing, and he has to wade into troubled waters, he has to admire that this merchant is really courageous.

"Have you eaten?" Li De asked.

"Some time ago, I was with my classmates from Guozijian, and the taste was really not good, but it was relatively cheap." Li Ying said.

"Well, that's interesting." Li De said lightly.

He has a backhand, there is a restaurant in Chang'an City's blacksmith shop has a custom contract, as long as someone blacksmith shop privately builds hot pot utensils for sale, he will bear a hundred times the compensation, sell one and lose a hundred, and sell twice as much.

Wait for someone to check tomorrow, if someone is really willing to send him money, he can't refuse to accept it.

Li De learned that someone was following the trend, and the next day he asked people to investigate, and he didn't know such important information, so he could only say that the coverage of the express delivery business was not large enough.

Early in the morning, as soon as Li De walked out of the door, he saw two women in red floating over.

"Hell!"

The loud voice was full of confidence, but when I saw the two women in red wearing their hair and yawning, I saw that it was Pei Qingxuan and Zhang Chuchen.

Li De saw that the two of them were sluggish and had dark circles under their eyes, so he guessed that they were staying up late to play cards.

"Have a good rest, you really have the potential to become a night owl, I'll go and see if the old lady is also damaged by you, the old man can't afford it." Li De muttered for a while, expressing dissatisfaction in his heart.

Zheng's mother is middle-aged, far from the extent of becoming an old man, only blame Li De for being filial and doesn't want his mother to accompany the young man crazy.

I dared to take a few steps to ask my mother for peace, but I stopped as soon as I arrived at the door, in case my mother stayed up late and it seemed inappropriate to disturb me at this time.

It just so happened that the moon came over to draw water.

"Good morning, eldest son."

Seeing Qiaoyue holding a basin of water, she was also afraid of disturbing her mother's rest, so she asked, "Is my mother up?" ”

"The eldest lady gets up at this time every day." Qiao Yue said affirmatively.

"Did my mother stay up late yesterday?" Li De asked.

"I didn't stay up late, I rested after dinner yesterday." Qiaoyue replied.

Li De knew that his mother didn't stay up late, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to convince himself, after all, he made the wooden card for this kind of entertainment, and if he did bad things with good intentions, he would feel a little guilty.

There is a restaurant, there are no customers in the restaurant early in the morning, the guys are cleaning up the shop, and the chefs are washing and preparing ingredients.

The bookkeeper settles the money for the farmers who deliver the wild vegetables, and even though there are no customers, the people in the shop are still busy.

Xiong Kuohai is very sophisticated in directing everyone to do things and make up for shortcomings.

As soon as Li De's carriage arrived, a man greeted him.

The guy went directly to the car to greet him, and the service attitude didn't have to say that he was helped out of the carriage, and he really felt that he had a good face, and the majestic sea came up with it.

"Kuohai, the restaurant is running well, and the welcome staff are equipped, so you really have yours."

"Where can I think of this, it's not a secret that it's all mentioned in the letter from the shopkeeper, the development of Chengnan Restaurant is very good, and the shop on the side has been built, and the business is doing a lot." Xiong Kuohai said.

"The shopkeeper is a good partner in business." Li Dexin said.

"I heard that someone in the West Market followed suit and opened a hot pot restaurant, has the restaurant business been affected?"

"Xishi hot pot restaurant, I don't know, the performance of the restaurant has been very good, especially in the recent period There is a growth trend." Xiong Kuohai said.

With a shop that followed the trend, a restaurant sent someone out to find out the situation, and soon got the blacksmith shop in Chang'an City without any problems.

When Li De heard the news, he understood that things were different from what he thought, where was to follow the trend, obviously planned and premeditated to follow the trend.

The guy who went to the West Market to inquire about the news found out that the shopkeeper of the other party's store was an acquaintance, Wang Jiali, the housekeeper of Wang Shixu in Taiyuan Mansion.

remembered that Wang Shixu came to eat hot pot at that time, and he still served him, but he didn't find anything strange at the time, and now it seems that they haven't given up, and they don't know why they always want to target themselves.

Is it because he is angry with Wang Wenyuan, or the Wang family is unwilling to admit defeat, what is irreconcilable about the contradictions in a shop, I really don't know if the other party's self-esteem is made of glass.

"I don't understand why they are so interested in business because they are scholarly families." Majestic Kaido.

"Scholars, no matter how high you are, you have to eat." Li De replied.

"They imitate our hot pot, wouldn't they cheapen them for nothing." The majestic sea was indignant.

"No, now there is no patent law, what can people do if they imitate you, now it is not without affecting the business, and then it is the right way to open development by bringing forth the new, and blindly following it is not good."

Li De's calmness made the guys in the store feel very confident, and the key time was that the owner was calm, and it would definitely get better and better in the future with such an owner.

"It seems that Brother Li has already had a countermeasure." Xiong Kuohai said.

"The restaurant is a little negligent, in the face of competition, we have to do better than the other party, fight until they lose money, lose to the point of being unable to operate and then acquire, or develop it into our buyer, make money for us, or ......"

Li De had a lot of ways to deal with it, and directly said that several people in the store were blind, and they found that it was really not worth it to go against the restaurant, and sympathized with the opponent for a few minutes.
