Chapter 136: New Shops
When Cai Xiaoxiao knocked on the ice, Zhao Kangcheng came back with two people, a man and a woman, the female looked about the same age as Cai Yan, and the male seemed to be a little older than Zhao Wu. Both men and women are thin and yellow, and they look malnourished at first glance.
Seeing those two people, Cai Yan and the three of them were a little confused, because the two of them looked a little like the three of them in Yashi before, both in terms of their faces and clothes. The three of them didn't understand what Zhao Kangcheng was doing when he led these two people back.
Zhao Kangcheng returned to the store and saw that Cai Xiaoxiao was not in the store, so he asked Zhao Wu and the others: "Hasn't Mrs. come back yet?" ”
"Madame is in the yard." Cai Yan said.
So Zhao Kangcheng led the two of them to the courtyard, and then saw Cai Xiaoxiao knocking on the ice while talking to Zheng Yi who was standing on the side, and suddenly frowned, and his face was a little unhappy.
Zheng Yi was the first to see him, and when he saw him coming back, he immediately waved his hand happily and shouted, "Brother Zhao!" He didn't notice Zhao Kangcheng's unhappy face at all.
Hearing Zheng Yi's shout, Cai Xiaoxiao looked up and saw Zhao Kangcheng and the two people behind him, smiled and said, "Xianggong, you're back." ”
Zhao Kangcheng saw the smile on Cai Xiaoxiao's face, the displeasure on his face immediately receded, replaced it with a gentle smile, nodded, and said as he walked towards her: "Well, what are you doing?" ”
"I'm breaking up these ice cubes and putting the juice in the ice." Cai Xiaoxiao replied, and then asked Zhao Kangcheng, "Is this the person you picked?" ”
"Hmm. Zhao Lan, Cai Yun. Zhao Kangcheng pointed to the two and introduced to Cai Xiaoxiao, "Cai Yun has four years of experience in tree planting. ”
"Huh? Are you sure? Cai Xiaoxiao looked at the young man named Cai Yun by Zhao Kangcheng in surprise.
The young man bowed slightly to Cai Xiaoxiao, and said softly: "Mrs. Hui, yes, the slave has learned from a master for four years before planting trees. ”
"Don't be a slave, just call yourself 'me' with Xiao Wu, I don't feel comfortable listening to slaves." Cai Xiaoxiao waved his hand, corrected Cai Yun's self-proclaim, and said.
"Huh?" Cai Yun and Zhao Lan looked at her with some surprise.
"Well, you'll find out later by talking to Xiao Wu and them." Cai Xiaoxiao didn't explain much, just called Cai Yan and Zhao Wu, "Xiaoyan! Xiao Wu! ”
The two of them heard Cai Xiaoxiao's shouting in the store, and hurriedly ran over and asked, "Madam, what's the matter?" ”
"Take them to wash up, change their clothes, and take care of them." Cai Xiaoxiao pointed at Cai Yun and Zhao Lan and said.
"Yes." Zhao Wu and Cai Yan led Cai Yun and Zhao Lan down.
Now there is only Zhao Jie in the store, Cai Xiaoxiao is worried that he will not be able to keep himself busy, so he said to Zhao Kangcheng: "Xianggong, after you break the ice, ice these juices, and I will go to the store to help." ”
"Hmm." Zhao Kangcheng nodded and said that he understood.
After Zhao Kangcheng smashed all the ice cubes, he and Zheng Yi put the juice in one by one, then closed the lid, and then covered another quilt tightly.
After that, after Cai Yun and Zhao Lan cleaned up, Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Wu and the three of them to take the two of them, then returned to the courtyard and said to Zhao Kangcheng: "Are you going to find a store?" ”
"Aren't you waiting for lunch?" Zheng Yi looked at the two of them and asked. He's still waiting for lunch.
Cai Xiaoxiao smiled: "You can find the store first, and then come back at lunchtime." ”
Zhao Kangcheng stood up and said, "Let's go." ”
"Hmm." The two turned to leave.
"Wait for me!" Zheng Yi hurriedly followed.
After the two of them left the store, Zheng Yi asked Cai Xiaoxiao: "Sister-in-law, where do you want to open a new store?" ”
Cai Xiaoxiao said: "If I can, of course I want to open one next to this store, but there is no empty store." She looked around and said with regret.
"Huh? Are there people living around? Zheng Yi asked.
"Hmm." Cai nodded slightly. She had inquired before, but it was clear that none of them were empty.
The three of them came to the place where the house was sold, Cai Xiaoxiao wanted to find a store that was closer to the store and had a better location, and the space didn't need to be as big as the store, but this time she wanted two floors.
According to her request, the other party really helped her find a shop that met her requirements in the adjacent street, and the asking price was the same as the previous store, two hundred taels of silver, with a small courtyard and a kitchen in the back.
After careful observation, Cai Xiaoxiao and the three of them immediately paid the money and signed the contract with satisfaction.
After that, the three of them stayed in the new store, and Zhao Kangcheng said: "Those ten tables are just enough on the first floor, what are you going to use them for on the second floor?" He asked Cai Xiaoxiao.
"No, no, I plan to put five on the first floor and five on the second floor, it's enough." Cai Xiaoxiao said, "If there are not so many tables, it is enough to entertain ten tables of guests every day." ”
Zheng Yi was listening to the conversation between the two of them, and asked suspiciously, "What table?" Isn't there a table? He pointed to the table that was already in the shop.
"No, it's not these tables, I asked Zhang Mu and Li Yuan to help us build ten tables." Cai Xiaoxiao explained.
"Huh...... Is it...... "What kind of table do you have to make yourself?" Zheng Yi didn't understand, but Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng had already ignored him, and the two were discussing how to decorate the new store.
"The signboard must be made first, and then two cabinets are needed, and the cabinets need to be the kind with many lattices......" Cai Xiaoxiao gestured to Zhao Kangcheng and said, "Oh yes, pots and pans also need to be prepared, why don't we buy them now?" She asked Zhao Kangcheng.
Zhao Kangcheng said: "Don't worry, take your time, let's go and order the signboard and cabinet first, and it's not too late to get the rest when we get the table." ”
"Yes." Cai Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.
"Hey! Two of you! Isn't it time for us to have lunch? Zheng Yi shouted from the side.
"Huh?" Cai Xiaoxiao looked back at the weather outside, nodded and said, "Indeed, it's almost noon, so let's go back first." ”
So after the three of them locked the door of the new store, they returned to the store, and Cai Xiaoxiao came to the kitchen to prepare lunch after greeting everyone.
Zhao Kangcheng came to the yard - when he came back before, he had noticed the four cows placed next to him, but he was busy with other things at that time, so he didn't have time to take a closer look.
"Brother Zhao is the first time I've seen a cow, right?" Zheng Yi stood beside Zhao Kangcheng and said.
"Hmm." Zhao Kangcheng nodded, curiosity flashing in his eyes.
"Would you like to try it?" Zheng Yi suddenly asked Zhao Kangcheng with a wicked smile.
"Huh?" Zhao Kangcheng looked at him suspiciously.
