At the end of October, the weather is getting colder.

After burning the winter clothes, the people who came and went on the street were all dressed in clothes and warm hats with melon skins, and went to the spicy pot in the mountain city to eat a mouthful of hot vegetables.

After all, something that makes money will definitely make people blush.

After Luo Shi earned a full pot of gold and silver, all kinds of spicy pot shops sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

Other spicy ingredients, although they are not as authentic as radish at home, and the bottom of the pot is also a little less flavorful, but in the end, others have pressed the price, and the ingredients are also fresh.

Unlike the secret ingredients for the meal, the shabu-shabu is opened, just these flowers, instead of queuing up at her place to make an appointment, it is better to go to another house, and the picture is convenient and refreshing.

Therefore, the business of Shancheng Spicy Pot Restaurant is not as exaggerated as it was at the beginning, and it gradually tends to stabilize.

There is something to say: I have no one, and I have one, since the spicy pot restaurant won the first battle, then she has to start thinking about the next plan.

Now I have about 2,000 taels of silver in my hand to open a Huaiyang restaurant, which is enough.

So, Luo Shi picked a day to spare, called Sanniang together, and went to see the shop of Huaiyang Restaurant with Yazi in Nancheng.

According to Luo Shi's idea, she wants to open a Huaiyang restaurant with the theme of Qinhuai River painting boat, naturally she can't stick to ordinary square shops, and even wants to open it to the cabin.

Walking along the moat, there are all solid green brick floors, except for the mossy wall roots, empty, and there is no suitable place to take the place to open the shop.

All the way from the south city to the old wharf to the east, there is an abandoned pier left, the stone slabs are overgrown with weeds, and the stilt splints derived from the water are in disrepair, and they look like they are about to crack when you step on them.

Luo Shi walked, looking into the distance——

The river is wide, the willows on both sides of the bank are still verdant, it is still winter, so the scenery is slightly depressed, if it is the next spring when you return to the earth, it is a different scenery.

"Where is this?"

Rashi looked left and right, looking at her surroundings.

Yazi hurriedly waved his hand: "This place is very cold, since the dock has been abandoned, how can anyone come, how can you do business?" ”

Yazi's words, Luo Shi's left ear went in, and her right ear went out, just listening to it casually, she saw that the dock was now facing a quadrangle house, so she stretched out her hand and nodded:

"If I want to rent this land on the shore, I have to find this family to sign a deed, right?"

"Yes, but the host's girl, you-have thought it through? This bird doesn't, and it's too far away, how can there be a business? ”

Luo Shi smiled, her eyes were watery, and she said with a smile:

"Even if you want this purity, you can't get any amount of gold and silver, you go and negotiate with this family, how much rent, dividends and tea money, you will repay me again"

Yazi snorted, and it was useless to persuade him, so he responded with a smile, and he straightened his clothes and went to knock on the courtyard door and discuss with the head of the house.

Luo Shi pulled Sanniang and stood on the shore in the wind, the cold winter river wind blew, some of her face was blowing, and the tip of her nose was red from the cold.

Sanniang has always known that Luo Xian's idea is big, and it has always been right, but this time, she can't understand why she chose this remote land, and it is not bad for this bit of rent and silver.

Perhaps there was doubt in her eyes, so Luo Shi looked at it, and heard her lower voice, and said:

"I don't accept ordinary diners here, so naturally I don't need a lot of people to prosper, but I am remote, clean and hidden, so that they can have more fun and feel at ease."

Sanniang Linglong thought for a moment, and probably understood three points, she raised her eyes and spoke in surprise.

"What do you mean——?"

Luo Shi smiled and nodded: "Yes and no." I won't touch the leather and meat business of Goolan, I only look for some singers and dancers who play and sing, and they don't sell their bodies - I sign the paperwork with them for the number of years, and they can just point to this bowl of rice to eat, or they can take care of it, and if they have leisure and leisure, they will meet friends here."

Sanniang listened carefully and motioned for Luo Shi to continue.

"Look at this land, I built a nine-curved railing bridge on the water, named Fengyue Bridge, and there are people who meet the door, leading to each painting boat flower cabin, eating, enjoying the song, and then rowing a boat ashore, this suave and chic style, convenient for other families to be different - if you don't like to disturb, you can also send a flower boat to the shore, to float on the river farther away, talk about business, talk about the court, in the end than the big restaurant is more at ease"

This is Luo Shi's positioning of Qin Huailou, she is going to celebrities, businessmen and government bureaucrats.

In these two fields, the dinner table is exquisite, the food and wine are still second, and the environment is the first and most important.

A table of men sit down, looking at each other, flattering and flattering, all with the intention of being wary, so how can it be done?

After all, women should be soft and charming, sing a few songs, drink a few glasses, and wait for the atmosphere to be lively, and the men can talk about things.

Facing the empty river, Luo Shi outlined the prototype of Qinhuai Tower, Sanniang was amazed and Luo Shi always had amazing ideas, and said firmly:

"Toss a midwinter, wait for the beginning of spring in April of the next year, when the night breeze and spring are sultry, light the lanterns along the river, and the items you enter will never be less than the spicy pot shop"

Luo Shi gave Sanniang a thumbs up and said with a smile:

"When I was in Liangzhou, my aunt and Cuiying went to see the Jiuqu Yellow River lantern, as you said, our Qinhuai Building, also on the water surface zigzag cloth lanterns, a small boat leisurely entered, you can enjoy Huaiyang food, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the river lanterns, isn't it wonderful?"

"Lanterns? The one who gets soaked with a dozen waters, how do you place a lamp on the water? ”

Luo Shi thought about it, this is indeed a problem.

But something suddenly occurred to her—

The underwater dragon king cannon in the Liangzhou military camp is a leather cover with a huge fish bladder bulging up, which can be loaded with gunpowder and put a fuse in the water.

Maybe improve it, put the lamp oil in it, then drop the cotton rope to light the lamp, and finally tie the seal tightly with a thin rope, put it on the water, and send someone to add the lamp oil once before going to night.

Of course, this is just an idea, and we have to go back and experiment with it.

It's still being discussed here, and there's news from Yazi's side.

I saw him running out excitedly with small steps, and with three fingers, he said happily:

"Good deal! It's cost-effective, and people only ask for thirty taels and one month's rent, which is the average noodle shop on South Street, and it costs five taels and a half miles! ”

Luo Shi and Sanniang glanced at each other, the price was fair.

But she knew in her heart that she only rented the waterfront along the opposite door to build the Fengyue Bridge, and the rest was basically replaced by a painting boat.

This piece of land is not a fertile field, nor is it a prosperous shop, and there is not even a shelter to shelter from the wind and rain, but the result is thirty taels, and I am afraid that most of them are still eaten by Yazi.

Seeing through it or not, Luo Shi happily took out three silver ingots of ten taels, and attached thirty coins, and said with a smile:

"It's hard work, little brother, take it to tea"

Yazi was flattered and took it, and bent down to thank him.

*

After finalizing the address, Luo Xi and Sanniang summed up, and while the wages had not risen in the past few days, they quickly invited familiar craftsmen to start work. It is necessary to strive to do some of the first work before the moon comes.

When I went back to the house, I waited for Uncle Liang to go down at night, Luo Shi had already made a table of dishes, she held the warm water and shouted to him to wash his hands, and asked with a salivating face on the side:

"I heard that there is a shipyard in the Ministry of Industry?"

Uncle Liang washed his hands in front of the copper basin at night, wiped his hands with a towel and handkerchief, and said with a smile:

"I said, what kind of evil wind is blowing today, cooking and fetching water, because there is something to ask for"

Sitting down at the dinner table, Uncle Liang glanced at today's dishes, all of which were very palatable, and he had to pick up the chopsticks and chopsticks.

"In the past, you were indispensable, but now you just speak a little tactfully, but you feel uncomfortable, what's wrong with this - ouch, let's get down to business first, and I'm eating!"

Luo Shi snatched the chopsticks from Uncle Liang's hand and patted them on the table.

Uncle Liang was busy all day at night, accompanying the prince to inspect the Xishan Jianrui camp, but he was wrong, he didn't eat a bite, and he was dizzy from hunger.

When I went home, I saw a table of delicious food, and I had to treat each other warmly, and the whole person was so comfortable that she wanted to fly, but at this time she played with her temper again, pestering him like this, making him so helpless.

sighed:

"Those people only know how to build a war ship, a war search ship, or a large treasure ship, and they are used to striking iron and making swords, so you have to ask him to get an embroidery needle, isn't it embarrassing?"

Luo Shi didn't care, and winked at him:

"As long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle! Since they are all building big boats, then pick up some leftovers and give me a few small flower boats, but it's a little effort, right? ”

Uncle Liang couldn't bear to see the loss in her eyes at night, although the boat built by the Ministry of Industry was really clumsy and ugly, and it was 108,000 miles away from the flower boat that Luo Shi wanted.

Women have to rely on coaxing, this trick he tried all kinds of tricks on Qiqi, so he also tried to coax Luo Shi with a sentence:

"Let's think about it elsewhere, but we can't find it, and then we will go to the door of the shipyard - let's eat first?"

Luo is helpless, if there is another way to think, she doesn't want to buy the wool of the imperial court, it is really a shipbuilding industry, and it is monopolized by the government like the salt administration.

Even if there are people, there are only a few canopy boats, and the simple ones can only cross the river, and the best craftsmen are all eating the money of the imperial court, and she can't do it if she doesn't go.

I don't know if the eldest aunt is coming soon, Luo Shi was angry in her heart, and she pouted and stood up from the embroidery pier.

"The dish is cold, don't eat it, put down the chopsticks"

Luo Shi took a few dishes from Uncle Liang in front of him, put them in the food basket, and kept only the bowl of japonica rice he held in his hand.

Facing his helpless gaze, she snorted softly, and the words that came out of nowhere, but her brain, so she let go of her mouth:

"You noble man is so busy, I'm afraid I can't count on it, I'll look for a way elsewhere, the Ministry of Industry is subordinate to the six ministries, and the cabinet is better than what you, a general, say——"

As soon as these words came out, Uncle Liang's face immediately sank, and he put down the rice bowl in his hand.

"What do you mean by that?"

"It's not interesting, it's just that there are so many roads in the world, you don't have to block your heart on one road"

"Did I tell you to block your heart?"

"I didn't say you, don't sit down!"

Luo Shi didn't know the bottom in her heart, this matter was her pettiness and temper, she saw that Uncle Liang was serious at night, so she had to dodge her eyes, but she had to be strong on her face and refused to admit defeat, so she was not soft on the mouth.

Uncle Liang walked up to her at night, grabbed her shoulders, and forced her to face herself-

"Everyone in the world is profitable, who is willing to help you? I saw that you were very shrewd in the past, why can't you think clearly today? ”

This is said to be unhappy, what does it mean to have a confused brain?

Jiang Yueyan knows this person, although she is good at exercising power, but in her heart she takes the livelihood of Dawn as her own responsibility, and once she seizes power, it is also for the peace of the world, and the Liang family kills and protects Kyushu, in fact, it is the same reason.

Besides, he still has a friendship with her to support and rescue, so he can't be considered an outsider, right?

"If it's really like what you said, I've died outside in the past few years, and I regard sincere people as friends and villains, and I won't be confused!"

"Someone of the heart?"

Uncle Liang sneered at night, took a deep breath, and his eyes were dark:

"I almost forgot, when I was in Tongzhou, Jiang Yueyan was 'sincerely' hired and accepted gifts-"

"Uncle Liang!"

Rosh broke away from the hand he was holding on her shoulder.

Don't open your eyes and don't look at him, this sour word made her angry and funny, but she was a little sad in her heart, thinking that he understood her mind.

But he didn't want to, those seemingly inadvertent thorns were actually still pierced in his heart.

……

Luo's evasion and loss made Uncle Liang even more angry!

He grabbed the woman's wrist and jerked her into his arms, the punitive kiss fell, and he bit down on her thin lips.

Taking advantage of the pain in Luo's astringency, he pushed it in with his tongue and blocked all her cursed words in his mouth.

Luo Xi clenched his fists and slammed his shoulders hard, but the person in front of him was like an iron plate, kicking and beating, not moving, and kissing more and more violently.

Her resistance made him angry.

Regardless of it, he tore off her waist seal with all his might, and reached out from the gap in the hem of his coat and fished it in directly!
