Chapter Twenty-Six: Opening a Restaurant (Part I)
The incense and candles were removed, and the four people just took one of the sides, and began to eat.
Mother Liu poured a glass of wine for all four of them, then put the wine jug next to Cai Nansheng, and let him pour it himself after drinking.
Hua Yu raised his glass and said, "Come!" We're kind of an alternative family, cheers. β
"Sister! What does it mean to be an alternative family? Dong Xiaowan broke the casserole and asked.
"Hmmm! We are not related, but we get together again, this is called an alternative family, you know! Hua Yu knocked Dong Xiaowan's head with chopsticks as she spoke.
"Oh! Hee-hee! Cheers to our offbeat family! Dong Xiaowan shouted excitedly.
"Cheers!" Hua Yu agreed, and after clinking glasses, Hua Yu tasted it slightly, she hadn't drunk liquor since she was so big! I've had beer before.
After tasting it, Hua Yuyu's brows wrinkled, spicy, and very choking.
"Ahem!" Dong Xiaowan took a big breath and was choked.
"Slow down, that's not how wine is drunk, you have to taste it slowly." Mother Liu said while gently patting Dong Xiaowan's back.
"Hee-hee! Thank you, godmother! I tried the fish made by Uncle Cai. β
Hua Yuyu and Liu's mother also picked up chopsticks and tasted the fish made by Cai Nansheng.
"Hmmm! The taste is really good, did Uncle Cai ever be a cook before? β
"Nope! It's just that I used to cook by myself and figure it out. β
Hua Yuyu tasted Cai Nansheng's fried dishes again, and it was really delicious.
Hua Yuyu rolled his eyes while eating, and after a while, he asked Cai Nansheng: "Does Uncle Cai plan to do anything in the future?" Or just drive the carriage around like this. β
Cai Nansheng didn't answer Hua Yu immediately after hearing this, he glanced at Mother Liu first, and then replied, "Does Miss Hua have any ideas?" Cai Nansheng knew that Hua Language would not ask for no reason.
"Or, open a restaurant." Flower language asked tentatively.
"Ah......h
"What! No! β
Mother Liu spoke first: "It's not no, we're so idle and panicked now, I wish we had something to do!" It's just that none of us are people who do business, can we do it? Don't lose all your money. "Mother Liu's first thought was that she was afraid of losing all her capital.
"Xiao Wan! It's your turn, what are you? "Flower language is going to ask one by one.
"Sister! I think the same thing as my godmother, and we don't know how to do it! β
"Uncle Cai, what about you! What's the idea? Hua Yuyu finally asked Cai Nansheng.
Cai Nansheng replied honestly: "Actually, when Miss Hua asked me just now, I knew that Miss Hua had something to say, and the reason why I said yes was that I didn't expect Miss Hua to let us open a restaurant." β
"Huh! So if you open a restaurant, does Uncle Cai have confidence? β
Cai Nansheng traveled south and north, there was nothing he had never seen in the world, and the place he stayed in before was also often in contact with nobles, so Cai Nansheng felt that it didn't matter.
"I don't have an opinion, Miss Hua can open it if she wants."
"Looks like tomorrow's trip is going to be in the soup." Hua Yuyu had already made up her mind to open, spread her hands, and said to Liu Ma and Dong Xiaowan.
"What do you mean, sister?" Dong Xiaowan immediately asked as soon as she heard that she wouldn't go out to play tomorrow and didn't know what the flower language meant.
Hua Yuyu knocked Dong Xiaowan's head with chopsticks again: "Go out tomorrow to find a place to open a restaurant!" β
Mother Liu touched Dong Xiaowan's head with chopsticks with her hand.
"Good! All right! Dong Xiaowan replied excitedly, as long as she can go out for a walk, it doesn't matter if she plays or finds a place, she is about to suffocate to death.
Hua Yuyu watched Liu's mother's movements, and was very happy for Dong Xiaowan, and finally someone loved this little girl.
Since we have something to do tomorrow, and dinner is over in a little bit, everyone washes up and prepares for bed, and goes out early tomorrow to find a place.
In fact, there is no need to find a place, there is a street called Shiwang Street near the Xianwang Mansion.
There are more than a dozen palaces and Hou and Bo mansions near the Xianwang Mansion, and the name of Shiwang Street is also derived from this.
Shiwang Street has many dignitaries and dignitaries every day, and there are many shops in and out of the whole street, forming a well-known commercial street.
In the morning, the people of Huayu walked into Shiwang Street from the south street, only to see the plaques on both sides of the street hanging high, the shops were crowded, like flowing water.
Everyone walked slowly to the front, constantly looking at the shops on both sides to see if there were any stores for rent.
"Why are there so many people there?" Dong Xiaowan pointed to the door of a shop a hundred steps away.
"Just look at it." Flower language replied casually.
When Cai Nansheng heard this, he automatically walked in front of him to open the way.
"You don't sell it to Lord Ben at this price, Lord Ben wants to see who dares to buy your yard."
"Lord Yujue, you are good, the price is a little higher, it is too low!"
"At this price, do you like to sell or not?" The Count went back as always.
The people surrounding the pass were all whispering and talking, and when the flower language was gone, they also heard a rough idea.
Originally, this store is the front building and backyard, the area is very large, it used to be an inn, and the business was good at the beginning, but as the street became more and more prosperous, the rent was longer and higher, and after several years of precipitation, it was already a commercial street, and it was not suitable to open an inn again, so the innkeeper also closed down.
The owner wanted to sell or rent it out again, but he didn't expect to be seen by a hereditary idle earl with a foreign surname, so he wanted to use his identity to force the owner to sell him at a low price.
Although he is an idle earl with a foreign surname, he is also a great man in the eyes of the owner, so this yard has been idle for more than half a year, and the owner still does not dare to sell it to others, so he can only beg the earl to give the price higher.
Earl Yu still refused to let go of the landlord, and he was not in a hurry, and he didn't dare to sell it to others, so there was no need to spend it here.
"Think about it again, think it clearly, and then come and tell Lord Ben." After Count Yu finished speaking, he left.
The people watching the excitement shook their heads sympathetically at the frustrated homeowner, and slowly dispersed, and went their own way.
Only then can you see the whole picture of the store.
This is not a faΓ§ade, it is a three-story pavilion with three facades connected together, and when you look inside, the inside is still very large, and you can't see what is behind it.
Hua Yuyu thought for a while, walked up to the owner, and said to him, "Can we go in and have a look?" β
The owner of the house lowered his head, raised his head when he heard it, and replied dejectedly: "Look at what! I dare to rent it to you. β
"Don't be like this, it's useless for you to sulk here, there is always a solution to things, take us in to have a look, chat by the way, maybe the mood will be better, are you right!" After Hua Yuyu finished speaking, he looked at the homeowner with a smile.
