Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
For three days, Li Qi couldn't stay at home, locked himself in his room every day, and he rarely went to the store.
Anyway, the important task of frying stinky tofu has already been handed over to Wu Xiaoliu.
But then again, Wu Xiaoliu also enjoyed it, fried stinky tofu for a few days, he didn't feel tired at all, and every time he sold out, he was still excited to tell Li Qi about some interesting things that happened today.
It's a pity that every time I haven't finished talking, I was driven to the kitchen by Li Qi to cut cucumbers.
Wu Furong thought that Li Qi was to avoid Cai Laosan, so he locked himself in the room, so he didn't think much about it.
Richie did this, which was exactly what he wanted.
In the past few days, Cai Laosan from the opposite Jade Xuan has come a few times, and each time he has changed his method to extract Li Qi's movements from Wu Furong's mouth on the pretext of discussing the purchase of the store.
Although Wu Furong is honest, he is not stupid, he knows that Cai Yuanwai will not be able to pay 16,000 yuan to buy this drunken immortal residence, and his purpose is naturally the secret recipe of stinky tofu.
Therefore, every time Cai Laosan inquired about Li Qi's news, Wu Furong said that Li Qi went out early in the morning, but Wu Furong didn't say a word about where to go.
That Cai Laosan came back with a depressed face every time.
Seven days have passed since the stinky tofu was launched, and the number of customers has begun to decrease significantly.
However, Zuixianju still relied on this stinky tofu and suddenly became the hottest restaurant in Bianjing.
What is puzzling is that this drunken immortal residence only sells stinky tofu, not even alcohol.
For this point, Wu Furong also mentioned yì to Li Qi several times.
However, they were all rejected by Li Qi.
What Li Qi means is that tea can be served for free, but it is not yet time to sell alcohol to the outside world.
Wu Furong listened and didn't say much.
It's all just a little thing.
What he was most worried about was the promise Li Qi made to Mrs. Qin, on the fifteenth, he would make a net profit of 1,000 yuan.
Although the stinky tofu can still be sold out every day, Wu Furong is becoming more and more anxious when he sees that there are fewer and fewer customers who come to buy stinky tofu.
They have earned a total of about 600 guan so far, and there is still a gap between 1,000 guan, and they only have three days left, which means that Li Qi has to earn 400 guan in these three days, not to mention that the tofu sent by Uncle Zhang every day is limited, even if there is enough tofu, it may not be able to sell it out now.
Wu Furong is in a hurry, but Li Qi is not in a hurry.
Every time Wu Furong wanted to talk to him about it, he always changed the topic, and he had a grinning expression all day long.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Early the next morning, Li Qi changed into clean clothes and went to the front room.
When Wu Furong saw Li Qi, he was still flustered, but when he saw that he looked like he was going out, he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Li Gongzi, are you going to go out?" ”
Li Qi nodded and said, "Well, after staying in the room for a long time, my body is almost rusty, and it's time to go out for a walk." ”
Wu Furong nodded and said: "That's fine, it's not a matter to be locked up in the house all the time, Li Gongzi, you can rest assured, the old man Cai Yuanwai will never dare to do anything to you." ”
It turns out that this old guy is worried that I will be kidnapped!
Li Qi felt funny in his heart, exchanged a few words with Wu Furong, and went out.
Royal Street. From the Xuande Gate of the Imperial Palace in the north, through the State Bridge and the Vermilion Bird Gate, it goes directly to the South Gate of the outer city. It is more than ten miles long, 200 steps wide, and is for the emperor to drive in and out, and the style is extraordinary.
The corner towers on both sides stand symmetrically, the pavilions and halls are lined up one after another, and they are sold as some high-end products, what celebrity calligraphy and painting, high-grade handmade products.
Li Qi walked leisurely on the imperial corridor, looking east and west, so leisurely.
However, for those celebrity calligraphy and paintings, guqin and treasure knives, Li Qi is not interested at all, and thinks that there is an Internet café or a movie theater here, how good it would be!
After strolling around for a while, Li Qi felt a little bored, yawned, and glanced back, and at a distance of ten meters behind him, there were two figures moving.
These two tails have been following him from the moment he walked out of the gate of the Drunken Immortal Residence.
With this tracking technology, he also ran out to show his ugliness, and it seems that Cai Yuanwai's strength is nothing more than that.
Li Qi shook his head disdainfully, ignoring them and letting them follow.
After walking around for a while, Li Qifang felt a little tired, and estimated the hour, and it was almost noon.
I looked left and right, and saw a small restaurant called 'Fengyu Building' in front of me, so I walked towards that restaurant.
This restaurant only has two floors, and the scale naturally cannot be compared with Zuixianju and Jade Xuan.
But the location is good, and the business is also very prosperous, although it is not yet the time to eat, but there are already many people sitting inside.
Li Qi went to the second floor, found a table by the window, sat down, and asked the bartender for a pot of tea, a few large steamed buns, and a plate of side dishes.
Li Qi was not at all interested in the best cooked beef or cooked lamb in this restaurant.
It's not that he doesn't like beef or lamb, it's just that the beef and lamb here are just too big.
Rare bite! Don't bother to bite!
Li Qi was nibbling on the big steamed bun, but his eyes were out of the window, with a little expectation and a little nervousness in his heart.
It's time to take the bait!
After a while, there was a commotion downstairs!
"Look, isn't that Cai Yuanwai?"
"How did he get here?"
"Could it be that Cai Yuanwai wants to buy this restaurant?"
It's finally here!
Li Qi hurriedly adjusted his mood, buried his head in nibbling on the big steamed bun, and pretended not to know anything.
Knock knock!
There was a sound of powerful footsteps in the stairwell.
Li Qi lowered his head and glanced towards the staircase, only to see two people coming up, walking in front of him to lead the way, it was Cai Laosan, and he was followed by a middle-aged fat man in his forties.
Big round head, face full of horizontal meat, oily face, a pair of squinting eyes, but it is full of essence, slightly thick lips, short beard, tall and burly, but it is a luxurious costume, just like a butcher wearing a dragon robe, giving people a nondescript feeling, fortunately, the fat man's aura is big enough, and this defect is well covered up.
With just a glance, Li Qi immediately withdrew his gaze.
After a while, I suddenly heard Cai Laosan's signature rooster voice.
"Oh, isn't this Gongzi Li!"
There was surprise in the voice.
Li Qi smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was silent, and when he looked up, he saw that Cai Laosan and the big fat man were walking towards him, and he hurriedly got up to meet him, revealing an expression that was even more surprised and exaggerated than Cai Laosan, "Yo, isn't this Cai Steward --- this time, polite and polite!" ”
After that, he really saluted Cai Laosan.
"Li Gongzi, you are really embarrassed." Cai Laosan hurriedly returned the gift to Li Qi.
Li Qi waited for Cai Laosan to finish his salute before he made a gesture to help him up, and said happily: "Steward Cai, you don't know, I was going to look for you these days, but I didn't expect to meet you here today, this is really fate." ”
"Looking for me?"
Cai Laosan was slightly stunned, revealing a confused expression.
"What? You forget, don't I still have a little brother in your store, I just want to ask, how is he doing lately? Li Qi said.
"Little brother?"
Cai Laosan frowned, suddenly realized, and said, "Oh, you're talking about the beggar ---- the kid named Chen Anan." ”
"Exactly, exactly, I wonder how their mother and son are doing recently?" Richie asked.
Cai Laosan remembered that day, he was disgraced by Li Qi, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, but he still smiled and said: "Li Gongzi, you can rest assured, you entrusted it to the people below, how dare you slack off, they eat and sleep well in the store, and they are very energetic." ”
"That's good, that's good, I'm thinking about bringing their mother and son back, after all, I've been disturbing your store for so long, and I'm really sorry in my heart, I'll accompany you here first." Li Qi bowed again.
Cai Laosan hurriedly helped Li Qi up and said, "Yes, yes, Li Gongzi, as long as you give me an order, I will immediately send someone to send their mother and son to the house safely." ”
"Then I'm embarrassed." Li Qi smiled, but his eyes glanced at the big fat man behind Cai Laosan covertly, and when he saw his displeasure, he smiled secretly in his heart, this Cai Laosan is afraid that he will have to be trained again.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Cai Laosan and Li Qi were talking about the old times, and suddenly there was a cough with warning meaning behind him, which frightened him and made him tremble all over, and cold sweat broke out on his head.
Only then did he remember that there was still a person standing behind him, and this person was none other than his immediate boss, the big boss of Jade Xuan, Cai Minde, Cai Yuanwai.
