Chapter 205: Inquire about the past
This Wang Shi was slightly stunned, and asked, "Where to find someone?" ”
Chen Wei on the side pulled Wang Shi and said as he walked out, "What's so difficult about this, you just follow me." ”
Cheng Xi watched Chen Wei pull Wang Shi away, frowned slightly, and said to Xu Sanlang on the side, "This Wang Shi is not a shopkeeper. ”
Xu Sanlang said, "What's the matter, isn't Chen Wei able to be the shopkeeper?" He is too shrewd, and it is just right to have an honest person like Wang Shi to look at him. ”
Cheng Xi glanced at Xu Sanlang, he must have thought about it when he picked someone.
At this time, Cheng Xin came down from upstairs with a wooden box, and when he arrived at Cheng Xi's side, he handed the wooden box to Cheng Xi and said, "At this time, the real estate deeds of restaurants around the country and the deeds of sale of the people under the restaurants, Xi'er, you take them." ”
Cheng Xi didn't stretch out his hand to take it, his brows furrowed slightly and said, "What are you doing for me?" ”
Cheng Xin responded, "I don't know how to run a restaurant, I plan to stay in Lihua Village as a female gentleman in the future, and it's more appropriate to leave this to you." ”
Cheng Xi shook his head and responded, "This is left to you by my mother, I can't accept it, don't worry, I will help take care of this restaurant, and I will hand it over to you when it is on the right track." ”
Cheng Xin shook her head and responded, "My mother didn't say that it was just left to me, she has always remembered you, but in the end, she may have not had time to explain, so she handed it over to me directly, you are also my mother's child, of course, you also have a share." ”
Cheng Xi saw Cheng Xin's insistent look, so he said, "Forget it, you take it first, and leave this restaurant to the second brother in the future, he is a man, and this thing should have been his." ”
Cheng Xin thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, "Then listen to you, I'll take it first." ”
The two reached an agreement, and Cheng Xin went back upstairs with the wooden box, but Xu Sanlang kept staring at Cheng Xi, and Cheng Xi was inexplicable, so he had to ask, "What are you staring at me all the time?" ”
Xu Saburo pursed his lips and replied, "You've always wanted to open a restaurant before, don't you want to open it yourself?" ”
Cheng Xi heard Xu Sanlang's unclear words, and asked directly, "Do you want to say that I am tossing around opening a restaurant like this, and I am not trying to make money, what do I want to do?" ”
Xu Sanlang nodded, and Cheng Xi continued, "We are not short of money now, canned fruits, dim sum workshops, and Yu Zhaocai are selling well, and there is no shortage of income from the restaurant, I didn't open a restaurant to make money." ”
Cheng Xi's eyes were a little misty at this time, looking at the door of the restaurant, it seemed that through that door, he was looking far away, his voice was also a little ethereal, and he continued, "I just want to open a restaurant like that, and there are dishes like that in the restaurant." ”
Seeing that Cheng Xi finished speaking, he was distracted by the door, Xu Sanlang's brows furrowed slightly, he reached out to put his arm around Cheng Xi's shoulder, habitually brought it into his arms, and asked, "What do you want?" ”
Cheng Xi came back to his senses at this time, and then said from the previous topic, "Anyway, I didn't open a restaurant to make money, it's almost ideal, so it doesn't matter who it is, the problem of people is almost solved, how to run it still has to be planned, I have to go back to the house and write a plan." ”
Only Xu Sanlang was still holding Cheng Xi and was reluctant to let go, and said, "Don't you go out and go around?" ”
Cheng Xi responded, "Didn't you say that the night market here is lively at night, and then go out for a walk at night." ”
Watching Cheng Xi go upstairs, Xu Sanlang came to Huai'an and had nothing to do, so he had to follow Cheng Xi upstairs, and then Cheng Xi wrote a plan, and Xu Sanlang leaned aside to watch.
Seeing Cheng Xi holding a piece of charcoal and writing and drawing on a piece of brown paper, Xu Sanlang looked at it curiously on the side, those words that he couldn't understand, Xu Sanlang opened his mouth and asked, what are these words?
Cheng Xi said casually, "Simplified Chinese." ”
After speaking, I realized that I shouldn't have said nonsense, but the words had been exported and couldn't be taken back, anyway, Xu Saburo knew that he was strange for more than a little and a half days, and Cheng Xi didn't bother to care.
Xu Sanlang was still curious about the words written on the brown paper by the researcher Cheng Xi, and asked suspiciously, "Which country's script?" ”
Cheng Xi didn't say Huaxia Kingdom in passing, but said, "It's just a simplification of our traditional characters, you see this product, is it a lot less than the traditional Chinese strokes, and it's easier to write a lot, but the two people look very similar?" ”
Xu Saburo nodded and responded, "Is this a resource?" ”
Cheng Xi nodded, "I can probably guess the shape of the words." ”
"I don't seem to know this word, and here."
"This is wide, and this character is one or two, isn't it much simpler than writing in traditional Chinese."
"It's interesting, teach me to recognize this."
……
Xu Sanlang didn't ask Cheng Xi why she knew these words, and Cheng Xi didn't say how she knew these fonts, and the two of them tacitly didn't pursue it, but only got together to study the differences between the two fonts, and talked about how to open this restaurant again from time to time.
Cheng Xin originally came to look for Cheng Xi, but when he saw the two people getting together at the door, he withdrew directly, until he was about to have lunch at noon, but Ah Wu, who was stunned, didn't care if it would ruin the atmosphere, and said directly, "Master, madam, are you going to eat out for lunch today?" ”
Indeed, when it was time for lunch, Xu Sanlang didn't blame Ah Wu, and answered, "Let's eat outside, let's go, go to dinner first and come back and write." ”
Cheng Xi nodded, put away the things on the table, and followed Xu Sanlang to get up and go outside.
The two of them went out only to find that the restaurant was busy at this time, and Chen Wei Wang Shi didn't know where to find such a group of people, both men and women, and was cleaning up the entire restaurant.
Chen Wei was standing in the middle of the hall, commanding everyone here and there, and when he saw Cheng Xi and Xu Sanlang going downstairs, he came up attentively and said with a smile, "Master, these people are the surrounding people who are looking for odd jobs outside the city to make money. ”
At this time, Cheng Xi also had to admire Chen Wei's shrewdness, which was more thoughtful than she thought, Cheng Xi nodded and praised, "It's done well, but this restaurant must be carefully taken care of, and it must be clean and spotless, especially those things that are used, all of which must be boiled and disinfected with boiling water, and none of them can be leaked." ”
Chen Wei responded attentively, "The small ones have been written down." ”
Cheng Xi remembered that he was going to eat, what should these people do when they eat? So Cheng Xi opened his mouth and asked, "Do you want to take care of their food?" ”
Chen Wei responded, "No, no, you can bring your own dry food for odd jobs." ”
Cheng Xi nodded and responded, "Then let's pay them more." ”
On the side, Xu Saburo took out a silver ticket, handed it to Chen Wei, and said, "These are almost enough, can you be literate and keep accounts?" ”
Chen Wei's eyes lit up, and he carefully took the silver ticket in Xu Sanlang's hand, nodded and replied, "Yes, yes." ”
Xu Sanlang responded, "Keep an account book of how much you use and where you use it, and give it to Mrs. when the time comes, and then go buy more steamed buns and come back and distribute them to everyone." ”
Chen Wei responded, Xu Sanlang waved his hand and let him continue to be busy.
The two guards had nothing to do, and they were also busy, Xu Sanlang beckoned to them, and the two of them came over to them, and said, "Master, madam." ”
Xu Sanlang nodded and said, "You go and run away from all the slightly famous restaurants in Huai'an, see what the background is, and hand it over to me tomorrow." ”
The two of them hugged their fists and went out, Xu Sanlang said to Ah Wu, who was still standing stupidly on the side, "Go and ask my sister to come down and go out to eat." ”
Cheng Xi looked at the back of Ah Wu leaving, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "With his temperament, I'm afraid that he will be sold and help others count the money." ”
Xu Saburo responded, "I only have martial arts training in my head, let him follow us in the future." ”
Cheng Xi nodded, there was a master by his side at any time, and he still felt quite safe.
When Cheng Xin came down from upstairs, the group of four went out and went to a restaurant not far away, and found a private room to sit down.
A few people ordered the food, sat in the private room and chatted one sentence after another, and after a while, someone knocked on the door of the private room.
A few people thought it was Xiao Er who brought the food up, but they didn't expect it to be the shopkeeper downstairs.
After Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin entered the private room, they took off the veil on their faces, and Xu Sanlang also took off the cloak on his head.
When the shopkeeper came in, he was slightly stunned when he saw a few people, but a few people were too outstanding, especially the two beautiful women, who actually looked like seven or eight points, which was really eye-catching.
Xu Sanlang looked at the shopkeeper staring at Cheng Xi and Cheng Xin in a daze, his eyes became cold, staring at the shopkeeper, and his voice was also cold, "Something?" ”
The shopkeeper came back to his senses in an instant, but he was also smart, and he smiled and made amends, "I'm really sorry, it's really that the appearance of a few young ladies is too outstanding, and the appearance of the two young ladies is too similar. ”
Xu Saburo didn't answer his words, but only asked in a cold voice again, "Something?" ”
Xu Sanlang, the shopkeeper, kept a cold face, but he was not annoyed at all, and continued to say with a smile, "I heard that a few of you are the owner of the drunken breeze?" ”
Cheng Xi couldn't help but scare people by Xu Sanlang's cold face again, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to respond, "Is there something wrong with the shopkeeper?" ”
The shopkeeper replied with a smile, "It's nothing, I just had some friendship with the manager of Drunken Qingfeng back then, but I haven't seen it for many years, so I want to inquire with a few people, this Drunken Qingfeng has changed owners?" ”
Cheng Xi looked at the shopkeeper, afraid that he was not in a relationship with the previous manager, but to inquire about the news, Cheng Xi's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile, "We just took over and bought it from others, but unfortunately it has been abandoned for too long, I am afraid that it will not be able to be opened for a while, and I will ask the shopkeeper to take care of it more in the future." ”
The shopkeeper replied with a smile, "They are all peers, easy to talk about, but a few people are not locals, but they are from other places?" ”
Cheng Xi nodded and responded, "From the capital, this drunken breeze is all over the place, but unfortunately it is very withered, so I plan to take a look at it one by one, so I came to this Huai'an." ”
