Chapter 124: There is not enough food
From the moment the price of rice and grain rose, Su Yue had already guessed that the price of vegetables and meat would also fluctuate, and she smiled without surprise: "I planted some small cabbage and the like in the backyard a few days ago, and now they are all growing." I also pickled a lot of sauerkraut in the store, so you can push more sauerkraut hot pot these days! ”
Shopkeeper Zhao admired Su Yue for being so young but having such foresight, and nodded in agreement at the moment: "You are the boss and naturally listen to you, but recently there have been more beggars on the street, and every day you have to rely on the vicinity of Yipinju and refuse to leave, which is really annoying." ”
"And that kind of thing?"
"You can't get rid of it."
Shopkeeper Zhao also seemed helpless against this phenomenon: "I asked the shopkeeper to drive people a few times, but these people still squatted at the door and refused to leave, and said that they were willing to smell the smell of hot pot." ”
The business in the store is so busy, he can't send someone to keep an eye on those beggars! So who will entertain the guests?
If you don't rush, it will affect the business of Yipinju, and other guests are reluctant to enter the door!
"Sister Yue'er."
Gently holding Su Yue's arm, Hua Haoyue begged: "These people are refugees like me, they don't want to make trouble, they are just too hungry, my sister is kind not to drive them away." ”
"You can't say that."
Seeing that Hua Haoyue felt pity for a group of beggars, Shopkeeper Zhao immediately became displeased: "If there are a bunch of beggars squatting at the door of Yipinju all day long, then how can we do business?" Just set up a beggar gang. ”
Su Yue secretly laughed at Shopkeeper Zhao's words and sighed: "Shopkeeper Zhao is right, we can't stop doing business because of kindness!" ”
"That's it."
Song Qiuxue came in from outside, covering her mouth and nose with a disgusted face: "Su Yue, go out and take a look, there are no beggars at the door of all the restaurants, only your residence is particularly lively, how can you entertain guests!" ”
Surprised that Song Qiuxue would have such a big reaction, Su Yue curiously walked out of Yipinju, only to find that both sides of Yipinju were full of men, women and children, and there was a bad smell in the air.
Such a scene, let alone a guest, even if it is anyone, can't stand it!
Su Yue looked at Shopkeeper Zhao, didn't she say that there were only a few? Why do you look at it at a glance, there are more than 30 of them?
The most important thing is that these people are all squatting at the door of Yipinju as if they have been discussed, and Su Yue even has some doubts that someone has deliberately let these people make trouble.
Shopkeeper Zhao looked embarrassed: "They said that Yipinju's hot pot tasted very fragrant, and they couldn't even smell other people's food." ”
“……”
Is that the reason? Su Yue sat back in her chair heavily: "While there are no guests here, you all come to express your opinions and think about how to solve this matter." ”
"Chase people!"
Song Qiuxue pinched her waist and looked arrogant: "I know that the shopkeeper Zhao asked Xiao Er to drive people away, but the effect is minimal, so I want to let the people from the government come, even if these people are bold, they will be afraid of the officials." ”
Su Yue also knew that the appearance of the officials could play a good deterrent role, but she still shook her head: "There are a lot of things going on in the city now, and the officials of various official governments are sent by the prime minister, and if we go at this time, it will be equivalent to robbing people with the prime minister, which is not good." ”
Moreover, she did not forget Murong Shan's reminder that her main goal was to earn money and live a good life, not to make trouble.
Song Qiuxue shrunk her neck: "Okay, I have a bad idea, I know that you have a grudge against the Prime Minister's Mansion, and you should stay away." ”
Could it be that she let the Song family's family come to drive people away with sticks? Song Qiuxue felt that this idea was feasible, and just as she was about to say it, Su Yueliang's fluttering voice sounded slowly: "We are open for business, a group of people are standing at the door fiercely, how dare the guests come in?" ”
“……”
Neither left nor right, Song Qiuxue fell on the table: "Aren't they just a few beggars!" Why is it so difficult? ”
"It's dozens of beggars."
Su Yue raised her eyebrows, and then said: "That's it, it's a waste for us to throw away the remaining hot pot every night, as well as those pastries and sugar syrup, Shopkeeper Zhao is responsible for packing them and sending them to eat." ”
"What?"
I couldn't believe that Su Yue would come up with such an idea after thinking about it for a long time, and Shopkeeper Zhao was a little depressed: "Miss Su, those people are unwilling to leave in the first place, and if you do this, they will have to rely on it." ”
"Definitely!"
Standing up, Su Yueqing's eyes lit up: "The reason why these people are at the door is because they are hungry, when you send something, you have to tell them, if they are sensible, I will send them food every day, if they make me uncomfortable, then I can only find a servant to solve it." ”
"This ......"
Shopkeeper Zhao felt that this statement had no effect: "Miss Su, if we don't send much food, they will complain all kinds of things, and in the end, you will do bad things with good intentions." ”
Hearing this, Su Yue pondered, yes, there are more than thirty at the door now, and I don't know how many there are outside.
If these people don't have enough to eat, won't they come to Yipinju to make trouble again?
"No, it won't."
As soon as she grabbed Su Yue's hand, Hua Haoyue prayed: "These people are all old people and children, they will be very grateful for the kindness of Sister Tubao, and they will not repay virtue with grievances." ”
"You're confident."
Su Yue smiled faintly and said curiously: "Could it be that you know them?" ”
After all, this little girl was also wandering and begging before, maybe she really knew people outside!
Hua Haoyue bit the corner of her mouth and nodded: "Because I sit at the door of Yipinju every day like them, we can't afford to eat hot pot, so we can only hope for plum to quench our thirst." But Sister Yue'er, they are really good people, and they don't have the slightest bad intentions. ”
If Su Yue hadn't kindly taken her in a few days ago, she would have been starving like the people outside.
Su Yue nodded clearly: "Since you know these people, you and I will go to see them that night, maybe you can do me a big favor." ”
"Okay."
In order not to be driven away by the officers and soldiers, these refugees living on the streets live in a small alley not far from Yipinju, and the alley is dark and cold at night, and when the cold wind blows in their ears, it is like a ghost crying.
Su Yue touched her arm with goosebumps, she should have let Murong Shan come with her, but she was really afraid that Murong Shan would be angry, so she deliberately didn't dare to tell it.
"Grandma Li, little spring."
There was a small, looming oil lamp at the end of the alley, and the people in the corner all got up after hearing the sound of the flower moon, and their words were very warm.
"Hua girl, I heard that you are working in Yipinju, this is good, you don't have to starve like us."
"You girl is lucky, if it weren't for the kindness of the proprietress of the family, you might be sold to Cuihong Mansion by a hooligan in the end."
"That's it, don't you eat hot pot every day now! What does hot pot taste like and is it delicious? ”
Hua Haoyue was embarrassed to be asked, and shrunk her neck: "Grandparents, I came with Sister Yue'er today, and she has something to tell you." ”
Only then did everyone find that Su Yue, who was standing not far away, was still holding a big food box in her hand, and the fragrance of hot pot wafted out of the food box.
Su Yue didn't expect that there would be so many people crowded in this small alley, and she was stunned: "Yipinju has some pastries and hot pot left, and I will bring you to satisfy your hunger." ”
I really let the shopkeeper Zhao say that he is right, his own food is not enough for these people! What can I do?
