Chapter XXVI
Nanjiang City is the land of fish and rice in China, with many ships coming and going at the wharf, and the market is perennial. It's strange to me, especially when I don't have to work to come to the market.
The shop that the young master gave me is located in the middle of the city, and it is a restaurant.
I don't know if it's intentional or not, this shop happens to be one of the second lady's wedding shops. The words and deeds of the second lady begging for the store that day are vivid, if I know that the store is in my hands, I am afraid that there will be a game of gambling.
The store that I got by accident bothered me for a long time, tossing and turning, thinking about it again, and finally settled on a difficult road.
"You want to run that restaurant with me?" The eldest young master said in surprise.
I nodded.
The young master then asked, "Why don't you go to the second child?" ”
I also thought about looking for the second young master, but in the end I still felt that the eldest young master was the best.
"I know my own catties," he said to the eldest young master in detail, "I can't keep that shop on my own." If you go to the second young master, the second lady will definitely know whether the shop is mine or theirs in the end, it is really difficult to determine. But the young master is different, this shop was originally given to me by you, so I naturally disdain to set up a store in private. Besides, with your name here, the second lady will not think about it again. So my partner, it has to be you. ”
The eldest young master was silent for a while after hearing this, then chuckled lightly and said, "Wishful thinking is sound, but why should I be your partner?" I'm not short of that money. ”
His answer was not unexpected, I really don't have enough benefits in my hands to get him to agree, but there is still a way to force him to comply.
"If the young master doesn't agree, I will return the shop to the second lady."
The eldest young master's face changed greatly, and he looked at me with gloomy eyes, "You dare!" ”
I swallowed, "If the young master doesn't agree, I won't be able to keep that store no matter what." Instead of waiting for the second lady to take the initiative to force her after learning the news, it is better for me to do a personal favor as soon as possible, get some reward, and the loss can be smaller. ”
The eldest young master approached, and I forced myself to straighten my back and look at him.
Although he was on guard, he still grabbed his neck in the flash, "If you dare to give the shop to that woman, I will feed you to the dog!" ”
"You be my partner," I grabbed his hand, "and I'll do nothing." ”
"Who gave you the guts to dare to come and tell me the conditions!"
There was a pain in my neck, and I gritted my teeth, closed my eyes and forced, and twisted his hand away with my backhand.
The eldest young master was stunned, his right hand twisted slightly, and he forgot to force forward again for a while.
I took a few steps back, breathing heavily, my heart pounding.
I haven't used this strength for a long time, and even I have forgotten its power. At this moment, he didn't pay attention to hurting the eldest young master, and he was already on the threshold of life and death, so he simply broke the jar and broke it, and said: "Young master, don't underestimate the power of ants, you are blessed and the bonus is not there, and the slave and maid will give them a life in the future, but before that, don't think about it!" ”
The eldest young master was so angry that his face turned blue.
I'm weak for a while, he won't be angry, right?
"I'm not here to make enemies with the young master, you are my nominal husband, and you hold the power of my going, staying, life and death. I just wanted to find a reliable partner to open my own shop and have a way out after leaving the Luo family. ”
The young master's face was pale, but his breathing slowly eased.
"I know I don't have any advantage to get you a different eye, but the only one I can rely on is you. I don't dare ask for your help, I just need your name. Isn't it a good thing to attach the enemy's things to one's own name? I pleaded.
A trace of hesitation flashed in the eldest young master's eyes, and he pondered to himself. Finally impressed him, I breathed a sigh of relief and waited anxiously for him to make a decision.
After a long time, he slowly spoke, "I want five cents." ”
Although five cents of profit is much, it is worth it in exchange for his name and protection.
When the dust settled, I was shocked to find a cold sweat behind my back.
The family doctor came to treat the eldest young master, and I was frightened, for fear that he would be punished in the autumn, but I had to give a few blank eyes, and I didn't see the beating and scolding, and gradually let go of my heart.
Later, Youfu and Hua Bonus came back to learn about it, and they rectified me openly and secretly.
Touching the bruises on his body, he sighed and did not dare to complain. Put all your thoughts on the business of the store, and the joy is greater than the pain.
Although the location of the restaurant is good, the business is not hot, and it is considered to be even if it is full.
Xu is five points of profit let the young master serve snacks, and gave me a trick to close the restaurant and open other shops.
I looked at the luxuriously decorated shop, and I was reluctant to tear it down, so I insisted on opening the restaurant.
The eldest young master shook his head when he heard this, and said a little bit to me that the mud couldn't support the wall.
I had my own plan in mind, and without arguing, I silently began to research new dishes to save the poor income of the restaurant, and my life gradually became busy.
