Chapter 8 Opening a store and doing business
"Butler, you take her to get the money." When he entered the door, he met the housekeeper passing by the compound, so Tang Yining gave an order.
The housekeeper looked at the woman behind Tang Yining, and said, "Yes, Second Miss." ”
Tang Yining nodded, about to turn around and leave, but suddenly remembered again: "By the way, you will bring her to my yard in a while." ”
"Yes." Then the steward took the woman with him.
When Tang Yining returned to the yard, the yard was completely new, and the thin monkey Kunlun cleaned the yard, and he didn't know how many pots of flowers were brought from there and placed at the door, which looked like it.
"Second Miss." Seeing Tang Yining coming back, the thin monkey and Kunlun hurriedly saluted.
Tang Yining nodded, very satisfied, "Thank you for your hard work." Where did you get these flowers? ”
"The lord said that there were no bonsai in the yard of the young lady, and there was no life, so he asked the little ones to buy them on the street." The skinny monkey replied.
It turns out that my father, who is away all the year round, still cares more about himself.
Sitting in the yard waiting for the maid he bought back to report for duty, I just don't know how this maid is doing. Just as she was thinking, the woman changed her clothes and came in with the butler with her baggage.
Tang Yining waved his hand and motioned for the housekeeper to step back, and then asked, "I forgot to ask your name just now, I don't know the girl's surname?" ”
I saw that the woman lowered her head and hurriedly said, "Back to Miss, my name is Hu Qian." Thank you again for the great grace of Miss, since you have signed a deed of sale with Miss, you are your maid, if Miss has any instructions in the future, just say it, you don't have to be polite to the slave maid, and you are willing to do your best to be a cow and a horse for Miss. ”
Tang Yining smiled, and introduced Skinny Monkey and Kunlun to a few people, and informed the rules of the courtyard, so that Hu Qian went to clean up her house first, and then went to finish her mother's funeral before coming back.
It's been three days since I saw Hu Qian again, and Hu Qian's eyes are still a little red and swollen, so I think it should be these crying bitterness.
Tang Yining couldn't help but feel a little distressed, but what should be done was still to be done. Hu Qian was responsible for serving Tang Yining's daily life for the next two days, and Tang Yining was quite satisfied with this maid.
went out to eat at noon, but saw that the three dishes and one soup on the table had no appetite, and after eating a few bites, Tang Yining said that he was full and went back to his yard.
I was angry for a while, but I was hungry afterwards. It didn't take long for Tang Yining to lie on the table and look weak. Seeing this, Hu Qian guessed the reason, but she didn't say anything, just turned around and went to the kitchen.
After a while, Tang Yining suddenly asked what it tasted like, it was very fragrant, and it was approaching him. got up and was about to follow the taste, but saw Hu Qian serving several side dishes with the plate of serving, plus a bowl of rice.
"Qian'er?" Tang Yining was a little surprised.
Hu Qianwan smiled, "Just when I saw the master lying on the table with weak energy, I knew that the master was hungry now because today's food was not palatable." The slave and maid personally cooked the dishes for the master, and the master quickly tasted them. ”
"It smells so good!" Tang Yining was already fascinated by the fragrance before he even started.
It's just that Tang Yining didn't just feel like this, the thin monkey and Kunlun also came over when they smelled the fragrance, "What is so fragrant?" ”
Tang Yining turned around and smiled, "You two have very smart noses." After looking at the dishes in Hu Qian's hand, it was not small, so he said, "You go and have a meal, let's eat together." ”
Tang Yining didn't mind, but the thin monkey Kunlun and the others naturally understood the reason, how could there be a reason for someone to eat with the master?
Several people hurriedly waved their hands, "Miss, we just smell the smell and want to see what it is." Eat it. ”
"In my courtyard, although I ask you to help me do things, I hope that our relationship should not only be master and servant, but also friends." Tang Yining brought the food from Hu Qian's hand and put it on the table, "Don't you want to taste what such a fragrant dish tastes like?" ”
Kunlun looked at the thin monkey and looked a little hesitant......
"It's delicious!" Kunlun praised again and again.
The thin monkey also nodded again and again, and even Tang Yining was also uh-huh. After a while, only the plates were left on the table.
"Qian'er, I didn't expect you to cook so deliciously, you can open a restaurant!"
Tang Yining is more concerned about the image, so he waited for that bite to swallow before he said. The thin monkey was different, and said with food in his mouth: "That is, with your skills, you can completely open a restaurant, how can you be reduced to selling yourself?" ”
At first, Tang Yining didn't expect it, but now that the thin monkey said it, Tang Yining was also a little puzzled, and then asked, "Yes, what happened to you?" If we can help you, we will help you. ”
Hu Qian was stunned, partly because she was moved by everyone's concern, and partly because the things behind her made her sad.
There was silence for a long time, and Hu Qian said slowly: "Originally, the family was indeed a small restaurant business, relying on the family's secret recipe, the restaurant's business was not bad, and later my father also opened a restaurant." It's just that the boss of the world's first food took a fancy to my family's secret recipe, and when the deal failed, he secretly killed my father. ”
Speaking of this, Hu Qian couldn't cry anymore. The laughter and laughter in the courtyard were a little bleak at this time.
"My mother and I finally escaped, and we didn't bring any money with us. Later, my mother was seriously ill, but I didn't have the money to treat her, so she ......."
The first food in the world, Tang Yining quickly turned his brain, recalling the information about this place. Fortunately, "she" had been there before, and now she knows a little. The first delicacy in the world is the highest restaurant and restaurant in the entire capital, and I heard that it has also made dishes for the royal family.
It's just that I didn't expect that Boss Jia, who was rumored to be the first Bodhisattva in the world, turned out to be so vicious!
gently patted Hu Qian's back and comforted her a few more words, only to see that she was a little better.
Tang Yining was indignant: "Qian'er, don't worry, I will definitely help you!" ”
Seeing this, Kunlun was also full of unhappiness, and got up and said, "Miss, I Kunlun will definitely assist you." ”
Several people were full of enthusiasm, but Hu Qian said: "Thank you Miss and the two brothers, but what I want to do most now is to reopen the restaurant." I want Boss Jia to also taste the taste of family ruin! ”
Tang Yining suddenly saw a thick murderous intent in Hu Qian's eyes, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth. It seems that she didn't buy this maid wrong.
"Okay." Tang Yining got up and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll pay for it, you will contribute, and we'll open this restaurant together!" ”
Hu Qian was a little stunned, she originally wanted to open a restaurant when she had saved enough money to be a maid in the house, but she didn't expect that Tang Yining would say that she would pay to help her! "Miss......"
Tang Yining knew what Hu Qian meant, and hurriedly said: "My money is not for nothing, I have also tasted your craftsmanship today, such a shop must make a lot of money." Therefore, my share is only an investment. That is, the shares, the store is yours, and the boss is also you, but I want to share the profits I make every year. ”
Hu Qian was shocked, she couldn't imagine that Tang Yining still had such an idea, this is not a big deal, which store doesn't have such a thing as dividends? Hurriedly knelt down and said: "Hu Qian thanked Miss first, Miss's great kindness, Hu Qian is unforgettable!" ”
It's just that General Tang is saving on food and clothing, and it is estimated that he has to ask his old man about this matter, but Tang Yining believes that with Hu Qian's craftsmanship, he will definitely be able to make his father agree.
suddenly thought of Tang Jingwen's mother and daughter, if they knew about it, they would definitely make a hindrance and sabotage. So Tang Yining decided to design General Tang Qingdao and her broken yard, and there was no need to make a big noise.
"What the hell is the matter with you?" General Tang saw Tang Yining's dedication and diligence, and he inevitably had some doubts in his heart.
Tang Yining tilted his head, "Dad, I'll have a look with me first." ”
Tang Yining is also General Tang's daughter, and General Tang naturally believed that Tang Yining would not harm him, so he followed.
But before I entered the courtyard, I smelled the smell of food and couldn't help asking, "What is this?" ”
Tang Yining pulled the syrup to the front of the meal on this table, and General Ang smiled, "If you want to cook for your father, you don't have to be so sneaky." ”
"Dad, try it." Tang Yining picked up the chopsticks and added vegetables to General Tang's bowl, urging a little.
After General Tang put the dish in his mouth, he was a little surprised. He is anxious that his daughter is cowardly by nature, and she usually eats and lives with the people in the family, how can she make such a delicious dish! I couldn't help but change the dish and try it.
Tang Yining, who was standing on the side, saw this appearance and had a certain number in his heart. "Dad, how's it going?"
"Yining, you can't cook in a hurry, when did you learn it?"
Tang Yining smiled, "Dad, I didn't make this dish." At this time, Hu Qian also came in from outside the house and saluted General Tang, "Dad, these dishes are all made by Qian'er." What do you think? ”
General Tang nodded, "It's comparable to a restaurant." ”
"Dad, in fact, this time, my daughter has something to ask for."
Hearing this, General Tang immediately became a little serious, "What's the matter?" ”
"Dad, you also said that Qian'er's craftsmanship is good. So I want to open a restaurant, and Qian'er will be the boss and the chef. I'm sure the business of this restaurant must be very hot! ”
Tang Yining told General Tang the truth about his thoughts, but General Tang frowned and hesitated for a long time before saying, "I want to think about this matter." ”
Then walk away slowly.
Seeing General Tang's attitude, Hu Qian was naturally a little frustrated, but Tang Yining said: "It's okay, Dad said let him think about it, I believe he will agree." ”
Sure enough, early the next morning, General Tang came to Tang Yining's courtyard.
"What you said yesterday, I think is feasible." General Tang took out some silver tickets from his clothes again, "You can take these silver tickets." If you have such a mind, Dad will support it. ”
"Thank you, Dad!"
"Thank you, sir!" Hu Qian knelt down and thanked him.
After that, Tang Yining had full authority to handle Hu Qian, and with Kunlun and Thin Monkey helping, it was much easier.
Hu Qian was grateful to Tang Yining in her heart, and secretly thought that she would be loyal to Tang Yining in the future.
