Chapter 241: Mutual Honor
"Shopkeeper Yan, when we went to Fucheng, we inadvertently did the people of Guo Mansion a favor." Qi Jiuli didn't say anything specific, he looked at Yan Chengtao's eyes very seriously, Yan Chengtao suddenly understood, he couldn't say specifically, he was not a child who didn't know whether the matter was serious or not.
"And then?" Yan Chengtao took the initiative to speed up the progress.
"Because I helped others, I naturally met the people of Guo Mansion, Guo Mansion is the same prefect, and to be honest, we only found out later." Qi Jiuli explained with a smile.
"We removed my brother this time, and they wanted to go on a scientific expedition, and we also went to see my sister-in-law, who married in Fucheng." Qi Jiuli said, "It was also at that time that I knew the identity of the Guo Mansion. ”
"It may be that our family's low-minded temperament has fallen into the eyes of nobles, and the Guo family treats us very politely."
"Then what's the matter with the young master of the Guo family and the young master of the Wei family?" Yan Chengtao asked curiously.
"People of the same age, they can talk, the two young masters are not self-sustaining people, they are very approachable." Qi Jiuli replied with a smile, "So I thought about communication to keep in touch, after all, Jinshui Town is some distance from Shun'an Mansion." ”
Yan Chengtao nodded, looking at Qi Jiuli's expression became softer and softer, with a hint of light, "Jiuli, it's really an honor for our Qiuwei restaurant to meet you." ”
Qi Jiuli smiled, "What Shopkeeper Yan said, it is my honor to meet Qiuwei Restaurant, not only me, but also my family." ”
Qi Jiuli is really not a compliment because of Yan Chengtao's appreciation, his family can have his current family background and pay for the cost of going to Fucheng, and it is also through Yan Chengtao that he has strengthened his family's charcoal trading business, and now he has a stable income.
Qi Jiuli's words touched Yan Chengtao very much, this is a person who knows gratitude.
"Jiuli, because of your relationship, Qiuwei Restaurant will be able to pay taxes a lot more smoothly in the future." Yan Chengtao felt that compared with farming and paying taxes, the business has to pay more taxes and is stricter, and the county government sends people to check the accounts every year.
Almost every shop will have a good relationship with the person who checks the accounts and the people in the county office, but there are many businessmen, except for some relationships, or those who have money spent in place, can be taken care of.
It's not just about paying taxes, who doesn't want to have a good relationship with the officials of the county government, there are people in the court who are easy to do, this is something that the whole world knows.
Yan Chengtao has a good deal with the people of the county government every year, and he has met Xia Lunhai many times, and there has never been a time that can compare to this time.
Being kind to the official master, and even praising what he did, this is not something that can be obtained ordinarily, it is all thanks to Qi Jiuli's blessings.
"You don't have to rush out of the account book, Lord Xia said, we will come to Jinshui Town around July 20, and the account book will be ready at that time." Yan Chengtao said with a smile, "This year's account will definitely be fast, and I can start preparing now." ”
Qi Jiuli knew in his heart and nodded his head.
"I'll report this to the owner." Yan Chengtao said with a smile.
"I didn't do anything." Qi Jiuli said a little embarrassed.
Yan Chengtao looked like I knew everything, and then asked Qi Jiuli to call Jiang Houchun up.
The reason for calling Jiang Houchun was known by Qi Jiuli when it was time for dinner, because tonight's dinner was extraordinarily rich, comparable to the New Year, braised pork, grilled fish, and stewed mushrooms with old hen...... A hard dish to celebrate the prosperity of the autumn restaurant.
The guys in the autumn restaurant knew that it was the blessing of Qi Jiuli.
Everyone was very happy during the meal, only Gu Youzhi was a little gloomy, but he didn't usually like to talk much, and no one cared.
Qi Jiuli doesn't eat dinner at Qiuwei Restaurant, but the food she packed has changed from being able to be packed in a basket before, to having to carry a basket now.
Qi Qizhu took leave today, Qi Basong came alone, and when he went back side by side with Qi Jiuli with the basket on his back, he was further surprised by the food treatment of Qiuwei Restaurant.
"Jiuli, what's the big deal with the autumn flavor restaurant today?" Qi Basong flipped the back basket on his back, "You have so much dinner alone?" People don't have so many wedding banquets to take home. ”
"There's a letter from Fucheng." Qi Jiuli didn't hide it, "The young ladies of the Wei Mansion and the Guo Mansion wrote to me, and the person who sent the letter was from the Fucheng Mansion, and the county lieutenant of the county government came with me. ”
Qi Basong was very surprised, "The people from the government will help you deliver the letter?" ”
"It should be by the way, it should be that there is something to come to the county office, but it can't be denied that the Guo Mansion has given twelve points of attention, otherwise it is not a problem to send more people." Qi Jiuli replied.
"Pay taxes every year, and the county lieutenant is included." Qi Jiuli hit the nail on the head and said, "Now that Qiuwei Restaurant has such a relationship, it should be able to have a good relationship with the county government." ”
"I'm going to be credited." Qi Jiuli smiled and pointed to the back basket and said, "As soon as Shopkeeper Yan is happy, the dinner at the Autumn Flavor Restaurant will be upgraded today." ”
Qi Basong understood and sighed, "Guo Fu really loves her daughter." ”
Qi Jiuli smiled and didn't speak, hurting her daughter is the point, but she also has a little bit of a good idea, after all, ...... Qi Jiuli glanced at Qi Basong, and thought of Qi Qizhu, who was at home today, who let his own potential stocks, invest in advance.
"Then what's in the back basket, can I eat at your house today?" Qi Basong looked at Qi Jiuli pitifully and said, "Jiuli, after I tasted your craftsmanship in Fucheng, I picked my mouth, I gave my mother a few suggestions, and I didn't see her improve." ”
"Didn't the eldest aunt beat you?" Qi Jiuli laughed.
"Hit." Qi Basong pointed to his arm and said, "If it weren't for the fact that I'm also a talented man now, my mother would have taken out the fire stick, and now it's light, just patted me and glared at me." ”
"How do you think of making spicy chicken at night?" Qi Jiuli asked with a smile.
"Spicy chicken is good." Qi Basong echoed, "It's delicious to listen to." ”
Qi Basong first carried the basket to Qi Jiuli's house, and then went to the house to report the news, and then came back to wait for the meal.
In the past, Qi Jiuli would bring dinner back, so Qi Qizhu and the others didn't cook, so they prepared an ingredient needed to make soup.
But when I took out the contents of the basket, I found that most of them were ingredients, unprocessed, half a chicken, a piece of pork belly, a black fish with a tied lip, all kinds of vegetables, for the grilled fish, cooked only lo-mei, and then a small bag of white rice.
"Eldest sister, why did you give so much today?" Qi Shiyi looked at the ingredients taken out of the back basket and exclaimed, "Sister, these won't be bought by you, right?" ”
