Chapter 24: Intermediaries
Xiao Baiye agreed to be Bai Qingqing's partner, and with the backing of his senior brother, Bai Qingqing was relieved to boldly decorate and train employees.
The dining table chooses the precious Huanghuali, Xiao Er looks for the most handsome and good-looking, the account room must have an education, the minimum must be a showman, the screen should be embroidered in Suzhou, a large piece of double-sided embroidery, the tableware is generally bought from the merchants of the Western Regions, and the other half indicates the Jingde porcelain to be of the highest grade - anyway, it is the money of the senior brother, so there is no need to feel distressed.
The Governor's Mansion.
Wei Linxuan was in front of the desk, and the folds on the table were neatly piled up into a hill, and at this moment, he looked seriously at the folds written in blood and ink in front of him.
"In the name of death, the minister sued the traitor Wei Linxuan for causing trouble to the court and blinding the Holy Hearing, as a eunuch, he should mainly serve His Majesty, and should not participate in politics. May Your Majesty open up the way of speech, take back the whole in Wei Linxuan's hands, and practice it personally, and promote the glory of my Western Chu. ”
"Heh," the purple-robed man smiled disdainfully, slowly closing the fold and setting it aside
Thinking about the content of the blood book - how can it be called "blinding the holy hearing", it is obvious that the manpower in the high position is incapable of doing so, and he instructed himself to review and fold.
It was Jiangzhou Sima Su Huaiyuan who was on the fold, and it seems that he is also the end of the horse, after all, the old man should also reach the age of retirement.
"Big brother!" A man had a clear voice, and he broke in without knocking on the door, dressed in white with a jade crown and a radiant look.
Seeing the person who came, Xiao Baiye did not shy away from it, and handed him the fold that had just been closed, Xiao Baiye stretched out his hand to take the fold, did not look at it, stared at the purple-robed man opposite and said to him directly: "Big brother, I want to open a restaurant." ”
Wei Linxuan raised his eyebrows: "Don't you know that the 'Linyuan' restaurant is my property?" ”
"Hehe," laughed, Xiao Baiye explained: "It's because it's yours, so I want to partner with you, you have experience and power, and I provide technology and means." ”
"What kind of technology can you have, you can't even cook." Wei Linxuan said contemptuously.
"Don't say that, gentleman is far away." Xiao Baiye had long been accustomed to Wei Linxuan's condescending tone - in order to be able to open a hot pot restaurant, he endured it.
Glancing at Xiao Baiye, Wei Linxuan said leisurely, Yes, you are a gentleman, I am not.
Wei Linxuan loves cooking, frying and frying everything, Xiao and Wei are families, after the defeat of the Wei family, the Xiao family has taken Wei Linxuan for a period of time, although it is only one year, Wei Linxuan moved out of the Xiao Mansion, but the capital is not small, it is not big, Wei Linxuan and Xiao Baiye can still meet often.
After Wei Linxuan confided his plan to Xiao Baiye, Xiao Baiye began to work diligently for him, and when Xiao Baiye was sent to Shen Qingyun by his wife because of "gambling", the two could meet in three days, and they could often taste Wei Linxuan's craftsmanship: steamed sea bass, back to the pot meat, stir-fried green bamboo shoots, pearl soup...... Wei Linxuan will do everything.
Maybe it's because I like it, or maybe it's really talented, Wei Linxuan's product must be a high-quality product.
It is said that "the return of the five mountains does not look at Yue", Xiao Baiye thought that he had tasted the beautiful taste of the world after eating the dishes made by Wei Linxuan.
Oh, no, his quirky little sister always has new tricks, puddings, hot pots, new ideas one after another, all things he hasn't eaten and tastes great.
"Don't say that, eldest brother, you are the number one eunuch in Western Chu, and a eunuch has no roots, so he can't be regarded as a gentleman." Xiao Baiye said shyly.
"Bang," that's right, Wei Linxuan kicked Xiao Baiye out of the door again.
It's just that Xiao Baiye didn't walk away in disgrace only once, but patted his ass cheekily and went back to Xiao Baiye's study.
"Big brother, really, you haven't heard of the dishes I want to buy, let alone eaten them." Xiao Baiye's tone was a little sincere.
"Have you read too much or are you short of money? I don't think so, have you been too idle lately? It is impossible for the political case of Jianghuai Taishou to end like this, let you know that he is done with the remnants of the party? ”
Dumbfounded by Wei Linxuan's question, Xiao Baiye opened his mouth and replied subconsciously: "His small Jianghuai County Taishou is too easy to find out the power network, but after all, he is a person from the prime minister's side, I want to investigate it carefully, and it will be more convenient to eradicate his forces while the old guy has a stroke." ”
Wei Linxuan heard Xiao Baiye say this, nodded with satisfaction, and then sat back in front of the table.
Xiao Baiye realized that his topic was diverted by his good brother's words, so he followed him to the table, reached out and poured Wei Linxuan a cup of hot tea, and then said, "Big brother, I really think that I want to open a restaurant. You said that you are not short of money, I also provide recipes for dishes, and also manage the restaurant, how light you are, you can make money while sitting at home. ”
"Yes, how light and economical, sitting at home will waste the money"
"......" Xiao Baiye was choked again.
Wei Linxuan saw that he had made up his mind to open a restaurant, and he knew that the money was spent, but he really couldn't figure it out, why did Xiao Baiye suddenly want to run a shop - after all, he didn't want to give him a shop before, and all of them were replaced by houses.
"Do you have a girl you like?"
"It's really not good, I'll take you to eat the dish I said, my junior sister is ingenious, make sure you eat it and say okay."
Ignoring Wei Linxuan's questioning, Xiao Baiye wholeheartedly squeezed the silver in his good brother's pocket.
"When did you have a junior sister?"
"It's been there for a long time, and I wrote to you when my master accepted her as an apprentice, but you didn't care."
Of course, Wei Linxuan didn't care, he was dignified Wei Dugong, how could he have time to pay attention to Xiao Baiye's little junior sister.
"Alright, that's right." Throwing money away like an uncle, Wei Linxuan was too lazy to say.
"Okay, after the deed is done, I will have 6 you 4 for the harvest of this hotel." Xiao Baiye dropped this sentence, turned around and left without waiting for Wei Linxuan to answer.
Wei Linxuan was puzzled: Why can't you divide it into five?
Of course, it can't be divided into fifty-five, because Bai Qingqing agreed to split fifty-fifty with Xiao Baiye, and Xiao Baiye's abacus crackled - "I and my junior sister are divided into fifty-five, and my eldest brother and I are divided into sixty-four, and if I don't do anything, I will earn one percent." And with the novelty and deliciousness of the hot pot, the profit of this percentage will not be much less. ”
In the fourteenth year of Western Chu, Wei Linxuan proclaimed himself the "Wolf King of the White Wolf with Empty Gloves", and many years later, when Bai Qingqing found out that her senior brother had been in a state of "white prostitution" when it came to opening a store, she angrily pointed at Xiao Baiye's nose and scolded: "Abominable middleman!" ”
