Chapter 143: Her New Restaurant (Second Update)
"I heard that Lijiu said that you want to open a restaurant?" Yuan An has been much better in the past few days, half leaning on the quilt and holding a bowl of duck blood.
Hu Man nodded: "Yes, Su Gongzi is helping to find a place."
"Well, it works." Yuan An stuffed a piece of duck blood into his mouth, after all, even blood... This kind of thing can be made delicious, and there must be nothing to question about the cooking skills.
"I wonder if there's anything I can do to help?" Yuan An was as gentle as ever: "Counting this time, I can be saved twice by you."
"Uh... I don't know how much silver it costs to open a big restaurant in Changling? Hu Man said blankly: "I opened a store in Qingtang County, about more than a hundred taels is enough, and now I have two hundred taels on me, it should be okay, right?"
Yuan An almost choked: "Two hundred taels? It's enough to open a tavern. ”
"Huh? Is it that expensive? ”
Yuan An thought for a while: "Big restaurant, the land alone costs a hundred taels, do you say it is enough?"
Sure enough, it is the same as modern times, different places, and the prices are much worse, Hu Man held his cheeks with his hands: "Then, Shiziye, are you considered to be a stock in the exam?"
"Huh?" Yuan An's good-looking eyebrows frowned: "What is a share?"
"For example, if you need five hundred taels, the prince will pay three hundred taels, and I will pay two hundred taels, but because I am mainly responsible for management, I am also responsible for the dishes and cooking skills, so... How about the profit of the restaurant, you account for three, and I account for seven? ”
Yuan An nodded almost without thinking about it: "Okay!"
The fast Hu Man didn't react: "Huh? The prince agreed? ”
"Hmm." Yuan An smiled: "If three hundred taels is not enough, I can add more, I believe you will not let me lose money."
Too easy, right? Hu Man couldn't help but be a little grateful: "Shiziye, you are so good!" She thought it would take a lot of work! The reason why he wanted to join the shares was naturally to have an extra layer of protection, and it was because he had no background in fighting with Wu that the restaurant said that it was burned and burned.
Now that Su Lijiu is backed up, if there is another prince, presumably even if the third prince knows that she has come here to open a restaurant, she has to weigh what she wants to do!
Thinking of the third prince, Hu Man asked casually: "By the way, when I was in Qingtang County, a young man went to my restaurant for dinner, and the newly appointed county magistrate called him... Three princes. ”
"What? You said that the third prince had been to Qingtang County? Yuan An was surprised: "What is he doing there?"
"It is said that I have a friendship with the new county order and went to visit it specifically."
"Who's new?" Su Lijiu came back and told him that the county magistrate of Qingtang County was dead, but there was no new appointment at that time, besides, according to the temperament of the third prince, would he have a relationship with a small county magistrate?
"Ji Mo."
"Is that him?" Yuan An turned his head: "No wonder!"
"He claims to be Su Zui, is that his real name?"
"No, the third prince's real name is Yuan Ling, and he is the emperor's third son." Yuan An looked at Hu Man: "What didn't he do?" He traveled all the way, and it was impossible for him to go to see the opponent specifically, right? ”
Hu Man pursed his lips and could only say, "I asked people to make trouble in Qingtang County for a few days."
"That's right." Yuan An sighed: "My cousin's temperament has never suffered losses, if you meet him, don't offend him!"
It is estimated that it is too late...... Hu Man already knows what will happen if he offends him! Although she thought that it was not offensive at all, it was intolerable to Yuan Ling, who did not allow others to be disobedient.
"With his temperament, can the prince get along with him?" Hu Man leaned over little by little.
"Fortunately, it's okay if you don't provoke him, but it's Lijiu's temperament, and he is incompatible."
"Oh? Su Gongzi had a holiday with him? Hu Man's tone unconsciously became a little anxious.
Yuan An was a little surprised: "You seem to care a lot about the third prince?"
"Huh?" Hu Man hurriedly waved his hand: "Forgive me for not seeing any big names!" So I'm curious! I feel that this prince is very mysterious, then I will go back to the room first, and I will discuss the matter of the restaurant with the prince when Su Gongzi finds a good place. ”
After saying that, she got up and hurried away, she was too anxious, and she was going to take it step by step, but when she heard the information she wanted to hear, she couldn't stop.
"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Wu Zhan almost bumped into her head-on: "What do you want?"
Hu Manyi pulled the martial arts: "Let's go, go back to the room and say."
Entering the room, closing the door, Hu Man sat down: "These three princes are named Yuan Ling, Yuan An said!" He is not right with Su Lijiu! ”
"For what?"
"I haven't asked yet, I was afraid that Yuan An would be suspicious, so I didn't dare to continue asking." Hu Man pursed his lips: "Anyway, now you can rest assured that you can stand on the same line with Su Lijiu!" Maybe they'll still be allies in the future! ”
"Be cautious." Wu Zhan poured her a glass of water: "I also heard something from the veteran general."
"What?"
"I inquired about Master Ji's mentor from the side, he is a prime minister, and he is a very distinct princeling! Ji Mo is his student, and naturally he was grouped together by others, at that time, the veteran general planned to hand over the military power, and the three heirs to the throne naturally wanted to fight for their own side, but who knew that when the father-in-law of the third prince was about to take over, he was impeached by Ji Mo, and he was corrupted and bent the law for personal gain and handed over to Dali Temple, and as a result, he was imprisoned, and the military power came to naught! That's why the third prince hated Ji Mo so much, but unfortunately Ji Mo was handling the case properly, he had no handle, and he was protected by the prime minister, so he could only leave him alive and go to make a county order, and naturally no one got this military power. ”
"Dali Temple?" Hu Man suddenly said: "Isn't Dali Siqing Su Lijiu's father?" No wonder they're not right! ”
Wu Zhan nodded: "So it depends on how this prince behaves!" If we are talented and virtuous, we can take Master Ji's letter of introduction to find the prime minister at that time, and if we want to take revenge, we can only stand on the side of his opponent. ”
"Okay, listen to you."
"Miss Hu, Young Master Wu, Young Master Su is waiting for the two of you in the pavilion!" The girl outside the door said.
"Must have found a place."
Su Lijiu stood by the river, leisurely feeding the fish, and saw the two of them coming: "The place has been found, can you go and see it now?"
"Okay!" Hu Man couldn't wait, since he came to Changling, except for a glance when he passed by, he had never gone out to take a good look.
Out of the Yuan Mansion, Hu Man and Wu Zhan sat in the carriage behind, opened the curtains and looked outside, thinking about the need to have their own restaurant in this place where every inch of land is valuable, they were still very excited, and this time they must not let anyone disturb her.
"Here we are."
As soon as the carriage stopped, Wu Zhan got out of the car first, helped her down, and Su Lijiu pointed to the restaurant in front of him: "This is it, see how it goes?"
Hu Man looked up and saw that it was four stories high! Very luxurious! There are also guests coming and going!
"This restaurant is still open?"
Su Lijiu nodded: "But it's going to be closed soon, in such a prosperous area, there are many people who want to buy it."
Such a big place...... Hu Man asked cautiously: "How much does it cost?"
Su Lijiu estimated it: "At least three hundred taels!"
Scare! So expensive? Hu Man thought about the land of thirty taels in Qingtang County......
"What? No money? Su Lijiu looked at Hu Man's expression with a smile: "Don't tell Ben Shao, you don't even have three hundred taels, so you want to come to Changling to open a restaurant!"
"I don't!" Hu Man looked back unconvinced: "But what! Su Gongzi's good brother, that is, the prince of the world, he promised to cooperate with me, that is, no matter how much money he has, he can come out! I can't afford to open it, but it's not a problem for the prince, right? ”
Su Lijiuyi raised his eyebrows, although he knew that Yuan An had always been better at talking than himself, but these few hundred taels would be given to people casually? Even if she saved his life...... The consultation fee is also a bit too much.
But looking at Hu Man's clever appearance, it seems to understand again, isn't even she being used as a backer?
A few people went in to find the boss, the boss was quite young, but because there was something at home that needed money urgently, he sold the restaurant, Hu Man discussed with others for a long time, and finally settled on a transaction of three hundred and fifty taels.
Hu Man touched his pocket, there were only more than 100 taels left, took out 150 taels, and then asked Su Lijiu: "Master Su, can you borrow 200 taels first?" Then you are looking for the prince to go? ”
Su Lijiu shook his head helplessly, took out a silver ticket of two hundred taels from his sleeve, and then directly took the title deed to the official mansion to change his name and transfer the household, the whole process was surprisingly smooth, Hu Man didn't expect that he would have his own restaurant so soon, and it was still a luxury restaurant that was at least three or four times larger than Manxiangju!
Hu Man went upstairs and downstairs to see it, the decoration is very good, not old, basically there is no need to spend too much time on the decoration, all that is needed is to re-make the hot pot table, chandelier and sofa, without these, it is not her manxiang residence.
The restaurant was closed that day, Hu Man took the title deed and went back to Yuanfu first, she had to redraw the drawings, and then re-order those things, of course...... I still have to find Yuan'an to get money, and I am busy, as if I have returned to the time when I opened a restaurant for the first time, still looking forward to it and still excited.
Su Lijiu arrived at Yuanfu and went directly to find Yuan'an, Yuan'an was reading a book on the bed, and when he saw him, he lowered his head again: "The girl said they went out with you?"
Su Lijiu lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down: "Well, the place has been bought, and I have paid two hundred taels of silver for you!"
"Isn't it special?" Yuan An said suddenly.
"What?"
Yuan An smiled: "I said, aren't the two of them special?"
Su Lijiu sneered: "What's so special? It's not the same as two eyes and one mouth? ”
"If it's not special, can you let Young Master Su be an errand runner?" Yuan An pierced him with a word: "Tell me, do you have any purpose for helping them like this?"
Su Lijiu cocked his legs: "I said that you are a fox, you usually look like a good person, but in fact, you are better than anyone else in your heart!" That is, Grandpa Yuan can be deceived by you, and he thinks that you can't take over the army with your temperament! ”
Yuan An smiled: "You weren't deceived, that's because I didn't hide in front of you!"
