Chapter 62: Smashing the Field
Early the next morning, Ruan Xiaodie got up early as usual, washed up quickly, and when she opened the door, she found that Lu Chuan was already waiting for her at the door.
"You're so early today!" Ruan Xiaodie opened her mouth in surprise.
"It's okay, you're ready, let's go." Lu Chuan was also a little embarrassed, and then urged Ruan Xiaodie to get in the car and leave.
Ruan Xiaodie was confused, but obediently listened to Lu Chuan's words and got into the carriage.
Seeing her get into the car, Lu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and drove down the mountain.
When the two arrived at the door of the tavern, they saw that the door was actually open, Ruan Xiaodie stretched out her head to take a look, Wang Mei was making an abacus on the counter, so she breathed a sigh of relief, followed Lu Chuan to park the carriage, and then turned around and approached the tavern.
"Sister Wang Mei, are you here so early?" Ruan Xiaodie went in and greeted Wang Mei.
"Hey, Fluttershy, are you here? Yes, I was so tired yesterday that I didn't settle the account, so I thought I'd come and settle the account earlier. Wang Mei looked up at her approaching, smiled and said.
"Yes, I also wanted to come early today to get it, but I didn't expect you to come first." Ruan Xiaodie leaned against the counter and watched Wang Mei crackle and settle accounts.
After a while, Lu Chuan also walked in.
"Lu Gongzi, are you here?" Wang Mei looked up and greeted.
"Hmm." Lu Chuan responded lightly, and then made his own sculpture again.
Several older sisters also came to work one after another, and Ruan Xiaodie chatted outside for a while before going into the kitchen to concentrate on preparations. Since having a lotus helper, Ruan's work has gone a lot smoother.
Even the help of the system is not needed.
"Fluttershy, how about cutting this celery into pieces?" The eldest sister took the celery and asked Ruan Xiaodie.
"Oh yes, just cut it into sections." Glancing at celery, Ruan nodded.
Soon the preparations in the kitchen were done, and the two of them came out to rest.
Ruan Xiaodie was still standing next to Wang Mei, waiting for the guests to come to the door, and asked by the way: "Sister Wang Mei, how were the accounts yesterday?" ”
"It's settled, let me tell you?" Wang Mei showed Ruan Xiaodie the account book she had organized.
"Uh-huh, tell me about it." Ruan Xiaodie nodded, moved closer, and looked at the ledger.
"Look, Fluttershy," Wang Mei pointed to a line of words in the ledger with a pen, "This is the number of tables yesterday, and how much money was eaten at each table, and my side added it together, a total of four taels of silver, and then yesterday I used one or two taels of silver to buy vegetables, and Du Sheng's meal was a total of five hundred dollars, and after deducting each of our salaries, the net profit is about two taels of silver." ”
"Well, that's good, Sister Wang Mei, it's good not to do this, I'll take care of the accounts for you in the future, and I can't get the accounts in the kitchen at all." Looking at the well-organized accounts, Ruan Xiaodie was satisfied.
"Hey, this is Fluttershy, you look up to me, I'm at my highest level if I can do it now." Wang Mei was a little embarrassed to hear Ze's praise.
"Don't be modest, Sister Wang Mei, I think you're doing a good job, and you'll be the shopkeeper of Fluttershy's tavern in the future!" I'm the boss's part-time chef, haha. Ruan Xiaodie teased and patted Wang Mei on the shoulder.
As he spoke, a guest walked in.
"Is this Fluttershy's Tavern?" Walked in a big man with a sound like a bell.
"Yes, yes, how many guests?" Wang Mei hurriedly rushed up to greet her.
"Oh? This is Fluttershy's Tavern, huh? The big man picked up a stool with some ill will.
Seeing that the big man picked up the stool and was about to smash it down, Wang Mei was so frightened that she took a step back, but the stool had not been smashed down, and it was intercepted.
The big man also seemed to be surprised, and when he looked to the side, he saw Lu Chuan holding his hand with a scabbard.
Looking at the thin and tall man in front of him, the big man said mockingly: "Yo, little white face, do you think you can stop me?" ”
Lu Chuan narrowed his eyes like splashing ink when he heard this, the corners of his lips hooked, and he quickly pressed the big man's wrist to the ground: "Oh? Am I a little white face? ”
"Ahh Heroes spare their lives! Swordsman! I was wrong, I shouldn't have said little white face! The big man was also a spineless man, and immediately began to beg for mercy.
"Say, who sent you?" Ruan Xiaodie walked from behind the counter and slowly paced around the big man.
"No, no one sent me, I just saw that your family's business was good, and my eyes were red." The big man explained in a low voice.
Ruan Xiaodie didn't believe it at all, and glanced at Lu Chuan, who understood what she meant, and pressed the palm of the big man with a little more force.
"Ahh Yes! Hero, hero, I was wrong, I said, I said! ”
Only then did Lu Chuan stop his powerful hand and shouted: "Say, tell the truth!" ”
"Yes, the owner of the Yuelai Inn next door asked me to come over!"
Hearing this, Ruan Xiaodie and Lu Chuan glanced at each other: "Honest? ”
The big man hurriedly stood up: "Tell the truth, tell the truth, you don't believe that you can confront the shopkeeper!" ”
"Okay, this shopkeeper is really black-hearted, he dared to smash my Ruan Xiaodie's shop last time." Ruan Xiaodie couldn't be angry.
Turned to look at the big man: "Don't go, when I'm done, I'll go to sue the official!" ”
The big man was so frightened that he nodded again and again: "Okay, girl, I'll go with you!" ”
At Ruan Xiaodie's signal, Lu Chuan took the rope and tied the big man to the stool, Ruan Xiaodie looked at the tightly tied big man and said: "You bear with it, big brother, you will be free again in the afternoon." ”
How dare the big man say anything, he can only nod vigorously to show that he understands.
After dealing with the big man, Ruan Xiaodie greeted them and let them disperse, and they went about their own business.
After a while, some guests who had actually come to eat came over.
Ruan Xiaodie started to get busy in the kitchen, although she didn't give away alcohol, but there were still a lot of guests who came to eat these days, and many of them were introduced by friends and relatives.
Ruan Xiaodie is very satisfied with the business in the past few days, although she is a little busy, but basically she has got the rent of the shop back in the past few days, and she is still very satisfied in general.
The lunch order came quickly, and the departure was also fast, and a few people were busy with a round and saw that noon had passed.
Wang Mei thought about it and estimated that no one would come to eat again in the future, so she talked about lunch. Ruan Xiaodie was tired of stir-frying, so he also got it.
Not to mention, although this Wang Mei's craftsmanship is not as good as Ruan Xiaodie, the home-cooked food is also very good.
"Sister Wang Mei, your skills are good!" Ruan Xiaodie put a piece of meat in her mouth and said in surprise.
"Whatever you have, it's just general craftsmanship, and you can still eat it." Wang Mei was embarrassed to shirk.
"Why! It's obviously delicious, don't be embarrassed, Sister Wang Mei! Ruan Xiaodie patted her shoulder and praised.
