Chapter 223: Buying a Restaurant

Wei Huai'an took Su Muling around the street and entered a teahouse.

Upstairs in the private room, Chen Sheng was already guarding the door, and when he saw Wei Huai'an, Chen Sheng opened the door.

In the room, a middle-aged man about forty years old stood up and saluted Wei Huai'an:

"I've seen Wei Gongzi, the contemptible Jiang Weisheng, is the shopkeeper of Baiwei Building."

"Shopkeeper Jiang. I heard that your store wants to be transferred, I want to hear how much silver the shopkeeper wants to sell? ”

Wei Huai'an politely invited Shopkeeper Jiang to sit down and get straight to the point.

Shopkeeper Jiang sat down against the door, looked at Wei Huai'an, and thought for a moment before speaking:

"You have also seen my shop, it is a little old, but it is a century-old store. The location of this store is also good, the most prosperous place in Tiangu Town. So, by market price...... Eight hundred and fifty taels. ”

After the shopkeeper Jiang finished speaking, he looked at Wei Huai'an cautiously, and saw that Wei Huai'an didn't react when he drank the tea, he felt that his asking price was too high, and he opened his mouth to give up some.

"If you don't think the price is right, then ......"

"Okay, it's eight hundred and fifty taels. Deal. ”

Wei Huai'an didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and intercepted his words.

Shopkeeper Jiang looked at Wei Huai'an in surprise. I didn't expect him to agree so happily, and he didn't even pay back the price.

"Wei Gongzi is really a happy person, Wei Gongzi, let me ask, what do you want to do with this shop?" Shopkeeper Jiang rubbed his hands together and felt a little nervous.

Wei Huai'an smiled at him: "Don't hide it from the shopkeeper Jiang, in such a prosperous area, I still want to be a restaurant." ”

"Do you want to be a restaurant?" Shopkeeper Jiang's face was a little stiff.

"Master Wei, maybe you don't know. Our Baiwei House is a century-old shop, which has been passed down from my grandfather to me. Originally, our Baiwei Lou's business was the best one in Tiangu Town, but since the opening of Tongchun Building opposite half a year ago, our business has been worse day by day. Why...... It's not that their food is better than ours, and the price is cheaper than ours. On the contrary, the taste of their cooks is far inferior to that of our Baiweilou, and the price is much higher than ours. Just because there are people above their owners, many of our original old customers in Baiwei Lou have changed to Tongchun Lou for business and future, so our business has plummeted...... Until you can't make ends meet, you have to transfer it. If Mr. Wei wants to do something else, I congratulate Mr. Wei on his prosperous business and can be a restaurant...... I still advise Wei Gongzi to think twice. ”

Shopkeeper Jiang honestly explained the situation clearly and clearly.

Wei Huai'an's admiration for Shopkeeper Jiang suddenly came to him, and it stands to reason that if he wants to sell this store at a high price, there is no need to say this to him.

Wei Huai'an smiled: "Thank you to the shopkeeper Jiang for telling me the truth, just for the shopkeeper Jiang, I want this store too." Moreover, I don't do anything else, just a restaurant. Well done, that's what I'm capable of. If you don't do it well, I won't blame the shopkeeper Jiang. ”

"If Wei Gongzi really wants to be a restaurant, then I can give you some price."

The shopkeeper Jiang had some guilt in his eyes, he couldn't do it because he had no business, and Wei Huai'an took over, which was equivalent to taking over his mess and solving his urgent need.

"Oh? What are the conditions? Wei Huai'an looked at him with a smile.

Being recognized by Wei Huai'an, the shopkeeper Jiang licked his lips and said with some embarrassment:

"The condition is: keep the original team in my store. Wei Gongzi, you have also tasted the dishes in this store, the chef has followed me for decades, and the dishes are very authentic. And a few guys in this shop, who are also very clever and dutiful, you leave these people, it is beneficial and harmless......"

"I promise to stay."

Shopkeeper Jiang stood up in surprise and waved at Wei Huai'an, and thanked him sincerely:

"Thank you, Master Wei, and I thank you on behalf of the guys. Wei Gongzi is a person who has the stomach to do big things, and I will do what I say, and I will give up a hundred taels to Wei Gongzi if I leave these guys for you. ”

"Don't worry, shopkeeper Jiang, I also have a condition, the shopkeeper might as well listen to it." Wei Huai'an stood up and bowed slightly at him.

The shopkeeper Jiang's face stiffened, and he barely squeezed out a smile.

"Young Master Wei, please speak."

"I want to ask, shopkeeper Jiang gave me the store, what is the high level of shopkeeper Jiang?"

"Well, there's no one in my family. I want to stay in Tiangu Town, find a place to rent a small shop, do some small business and support my family. ”

"If Shopkeeper Jiang is willing, I would like to ask Shopkeeper Jiang to continue to manage this restaurant. The price is one percent more than that of other shopkeepers, what do you think of the shopkeeper Jiang? ”

Shopkeeper Jiang thought he had heard it wrong, there are still such good things in the world? Not only did he leave all the guys in the store, but he also left him behind.

Shopkeeper Jiang reconfirmed in disbelief: "Gongzi Wei, what you said is true?" I...... Can you also stay? ”

"Of course, all the people in Baiwei Lou stayed. I will redecorate the restaurant, and our business will not be worse than Tongchun Lou in the future. ”

Wei Huai'an walked to the window again, looking at the Tongchun Building on the opposite side, full of confidence.

"Okay, everything is up to Master Wei."

The ginger shopkeeper was excited and pleasantly surprised. He knew that he was a rich master by looking at Wei Huai'an's dress, but he didn't expect that this seemingly gentlemanly son still had some business acumen and was good at employing people, which was already rare, and the shopkeeper Jiang had new hope for the future of Baiweilou in his heart.

"Shopkeeper Jiang doesn't have to be polite, I also wanted to stay with your people, since the conditions have been negotiated, then let's find a time to sign a contract."

Wei Huaian turned around and smiled at the shopkeeper Jiang.

Shopkeeper Jiang happily agreed: "Okay, then tomorrow at noon, in Baiwei Building." Luckily? ”

"Okay, see you or leave!"

……

Out of the teahouse, Wei Huaian took Su Muling and walked home. Not far behind him, the young man from Tongchun Lou secretly followed behind. Su Muling sensed something, turned around and thought about it, but was pulled by Wei Huai'an.

"Don't look, it's sent by Tongchunlou."

"You already knew?" Su Muling was surprised.

Wei Huai'an smiled and pulled her into a small alley.

The young man followed and walked in, and when he looked around, he saw that the figures of Wei Huai'an and Su Muling disappeared for a moment.

The young man was startled, walked a few steps quickly to catch up, but before he could chase out of the alley, with a gust of wind, the young man was hit with a stick on his head, and before he could see who it was, the young man fainted and fell to the ground.

Wei Huai'an took Su Muling home, and Chen Sheng also arrived. followed Wei Huai'an into the house, Wei Huai'an took off his clothes and threw it to him:

"Handled?"

Chen Sheng pursed his lips and smiled: "I beat it up." ”

"Didn't anyone see it?"

Wei Huai'an took the handkerchief handed over by Chen Sheng and wiped his face.

"No, from behind." Then Chen Sheng complained a little aggrievedly: "If you want me to say it, you will show the identity of the son of the world openly, and make them look down on people." Following Wei Huai'an, Chen Sheng was the first time he couldn't beat people generously.

Wei Huai'an tilted his eyes on the couch and squinted at him: "The strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake, don't you understand?" We bought Baiwei Lou to teach the bullying Tongchun Building a lesson, and it was not time to show the identity. ”

"Yes, my subordinates are stupid."

Chen Sheng saw Wei Huai'an close his eyes and quietly retreated.

The next day, Baiwei House was closed. There is a sign at the door: temporarily closed!

Wu Chun smiled proudly at Tongchun Lou on the other side, and it was a happy thing to crush the other family. The shopkeeper was called, and Wu Chun instructed:

"You go to Jiang Weisheng and ask him what price the shop sells."

"The owner wants to buy it?" The shopkeeper asked.

Wu Chun sneered: "Our business is so good, how can we do it without expanding our territory." Remember: keep the price to a minimum. ”

"Yes."

The shopkeeper promised to go out just as he saw a team of carpenters and lacquerers passing by in front of the door, and followed them into Baiwei Building.

What's to be done? Wu Chun was at a loss.

"Go and ask what's going on?" Wu Chun frowned and glanced at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper went and returned: "Baiwei Building is sold, and it needs to be renovated." ”

"Sold? Who bought it? Wu Chun was surprised, Baiweilou changed hands, why didn't he hear any news.

"I didn't ask about this."

"What is it for?" Wu Chun asked again.

"This ...... Didn't ask either. The shopkeeper wiped his sweat.

"Waste." Wu Chun scolded.

In fact, what Baiweilou sells has no effect on Tongchun Lou, even if someone else buys it and then makes a restaurant, Wu Chun is confident that it will not be able to shake the status of Tongchun Lou, but Wu Chun's heart is always faintly uneasy, and he has a hunch that something is going to happen......

Just when Wu Chun was anxiously exploring who the owner of Baiwei Mansion was, Wei Huai'an took Chen Shengren to Ningguo Mansion unknowingly.

After finding an inn to live in, the two wandered around and inquired about the location of the prefect's yamen.

In the middle of the night, two dark shadows sneaked into the study of Zhou Huanjun, the prefect in the backyard of the prefect's yamen. A lamp was lit, and the man in black began rummaging through the study.

"Shizi, no." Chen Sheng's voice.

Wei Huai'an, who was wearing a night coat and covering his face, stopped and muttered in a low voice: "Wait...... Pregnant! "Such an important thing must not be put in the open, he has to startle the snake.

Wei Huai'an pulled Chen Sheng and whispered a few words in his ear. Chen Sheng nodded, opened the door and ran around the courtyard, deliberately made a loud noise, and returned to the study.

The officials on duty at the yamen heard the movement, beckoned people to come around to check, and blocked Chen Sheng in the study, and Chen Sheng confronted the officials with a sword in his hand.

Zhou Huanjun got the news and hurriedly put on his clothes and ran over, and saw that the door of the study was wide open, and a black-clothed masked man was fighting with the officials.

The man in black was so good at kung fu that he broke out of the encirclement and jumped onto the wall to escape without using three or five moves. The officials hurriedly followed and went out to chase after them.

The servants dispersed, Zhou Huanjun entered the study, and when he saw the mess in the study, Zhou Huanjun was shocked. He hurriedly walked to the door and looked around, then closed the door.

Zhou Huanjun came to the bookcase, lifted his shirt and squatted down. I saw him lift a floor tile, revealing a dark layer.

Zhou Huanjun took out a small package from it, opened it carefully and looked at it, the contents were still there, and Zhou Huanjun finally put it back in its place with confidence.

put the messed things in the study back into place, and Zhou Huanjun turned off the lights and returned to his bedroom.

On the beam in the study, Wei Huaian quietly jumped down and came to the bookcase. I still lifted the floor tiles, took out the contents of the package, put it in my arms, and took the book in my hand, wrapped it in the bag, and put it down again.

Opening the door, Wei Huai'an's figure flickered and disappeared into the darkness......
