Chapter 664: Purpose
Chen Youyi just smiled simply, only to hear Shangguan Yunxuan continue, "Has the emperor ever eaten the dishes of your cuisine?" ”
She shook her head with a look of regret, "The emperor has never tasted it, I still want to take this opportunity to let the emperor taste it, but it's a pity, we really can't afford to offend some high-ranking officials in the court, but because of some personal grievances, we erased our quotas, which is really a bit ......."
Chen Youyi's acting is still online, she has successfully attracted the attention of Shangguan Yunxuan, and he really said, "Otherwise, when I enter the palace to meet the emperor, I will introduce your dishes to the emperor, and ask the emperor to restore your quota and let you enter the palace to participate in the competition, what do you think?" ”
"If this can really be done, then I really have to thank Childe." Chen Youyi hurriedly got up and saluted, but was stopped by Shangguan Yunxuan, who was one step ahead of her, and held her arm, Chen Youyi could feel a burning heat from his palm, and his body couldn't help but retreat a little.
And Shangguan Yunxuan regarded this as Chen Youyi's shy evasion, he remembered hearing that women in the Central Plains were like this, and this kind of Chen Youyi was even more attractive.
"It's on me." When Shangguan Yunxuan was leaving, he also deliberately patted his chest to assure that Chen Youyi also gave Shangguan Yunxuan the few gadgets that Mo Xincheng brought, and he couldn't put it down, and he was even more impressed by Chen Youyi.
After he got in the car and left, Chen Youyi stood at the door of the tavern, his eyes sank and he sighed, and Mo Xincheng next to him asked in a low voice, "Madam, do you think he will help us talk in front of the emperor?" What if the emperor knows that there is such a dish, but considering the power of Yuefu, he won't let us enter the palace? ”
What Mo Xincheng said is not impossible, Chen Youyi is also worried about this, but all she can do is these things now, and the future can only obey the will of God.
"It's up to God." She finally said, and then asked people to clean up the tavern's things, and she took Mo Xincheng Xue'er and them back to the house together.
The next two days were waiting for news from the palace, and Chen Youyi also asked people to inquire about the situation on Shangguan Yunxuan's side, but there was not a lot of news, and she even began to feel a little out of order in her heart.
However, before she could wait for the news she expected, at noon that day, when she was sitting in the gazebo in the garden and writing with Qin Xuan, the housekeeper hurriedly ran in from outside, "Madame, no, Madam...... It's a big deal. ”
The housekeeper is also a steady person, there must be something important for him to come here like this, Chen Youyi handed Qin Xuan to Xue'er and asked them to go down first, and then looked at the housekeeper, "You say something slowly." ”
"Something is wrong with our business." The housekeeper couldn't say the details for a while, but this sentence made Chen Youyi chuckle in her heart, "What happened?" Isn't business all good lately? ”
After that, the housekeeper told Chen Youyi about the business, and she realized that there were many problems in some of the businesses she cooperated with Li Batian.
"A batch of goods we brought in from the south was robbed by bandits, and two people died." The housekeeper said, "This matter was brought back by someone just now, and I have already sent someone to continue to inquire about the situation over there, and in addition, the materials that Li Batian originally promised us have not been given until now, and last time he said that he would do half of the business with him, and he suddenly let people take all the money back." ”
"What?" Chen Youyi stood up abruptly and stared at the housekeeper incredulously, "How can this be?" What about the others? What about the other voices? ”
The housekeeper also just received the news, and he didn't expect that these things would happen at the same time, "Nothing has happened to the other voices, but as long as it is a business related to Li Batian, all of them have suffered heavy losses, either the goods have not arrived, or the money has been taken away by them." ”
"Then does anyone from Li Batian's side explain what the hell is going on? I worked well together before, why did it suddenly look like this? Chen Youyi was anxious, remembering that when she had just settled in the capital, it was Li Batian who helped her, so she had today.
She has always remembered his kindness, and even thought that if she has the opportunity in the future, she must report his kindness, and then she also has a lot of contacts and cooperation with Li Batian in business, and is even ready to invest in a business with him, but she didn't expect that such a thing would happen suddenly.
"No, I'm going to go to his house and ask what's going on." As soon as one thing was settled, another troublesome thing followed, as if someone had deliberately arranged it.
But Chen Youyi had just taken a few steps before retreating.
"What's wrong with ma'am?" The housekeeper was about to go to Li Batian's side with her, but saw that she hesitated.
"No, Li Batian is not such a person, I believe in his character, I have cooperated for so long, I also believe in my vision, he will never do such a thing, there must be something we don't understand." She returned to the gazebo and calmed herself down to think.
"Didn't Li Batian really send someone over there?"
"No, it's just that our people have reviewed the business matters, and this time we are waiting for how to deal with it." The butler said hurriedly.
Chen Youyi's brows were tightly locked, pacing back and forth in the pavilion, she suddenly stopped, "In this way, you go and order the people below, as long as it is related to Li Batian's voice, if there is an accident, all of them will be dealt with according to our agreement, and the interests of our guests will not be affected. ”
Hearing this, the housekeeper was a little anxious, "Madame, can't you do this?" This time, the sound was damaged, and the area affected was too wide, if we compensated like this, we were afraid that we would ......"
"Listen to me, even if you go bankrupt, you can't be dishonest with others, that's how I do business, if I lose my trust at this time, no one will believe us when we do business in the future, but this time we are really bankrupt, and if we do business in the future, there will be someone to help us, do you understand?"
Looking at the housekeeper's eyes, which were still very incomprehensible, Chen Youyi frowned and said loudly, "Do what I say, hurry up." ”
The housekeeper came back to his senses and hurriedly turned around and left here, Chen Youyi felt that his body was weak, and the whole person sat on the stool, and inexplicably thought of the people over there in Yuefu, this must be the ghost of the people over there in Yuefu, but she didn't understand why Li Batian was also affected by Yuefu? Is there anything you don't know about this?
Now she feels unusually helpless, and even has no way to ask for help.
