Chapter 242: Small Merchant

That philistine face is also something that Cheng Beiwang doesn't like, a woman should have the appearance of a woman, how good is it to be gentle as water? No matter how bad it is, it's okay to be as lively and clever as the princess. But this Ren Xiaoyao estimated that he didn't think of himself as a woman, and between standing and sitting, he was all in a man's posture.

Shaking his head, Cheng Beiwang sighed.

He probably really just hugged a man last night.

"The owner." The shopkeeper came over again, muttered in Ren Xiaoyao's ear for a while, and didn't know what to say, but saw her eyes glow, and said excitedly: "Go, bring the silver and follow me." ”

"Yes." The shopkeeper nodded to pick up the silver, and Ren Xiaoyao didn't pay attention to the person standing in the dark, and ran out in a hurry.

What's going on? Cheng Beiwang was a little curious, he was also very busy, but he came over to take care of one or two according to the prince's instructions, and he didn't want to do anything practical. But seeing her so excited, he suddenly became a little curious, and couldn't help but follow.

Naturally, there are a lot of dealings between merchants and households, and the household managers are regarded as top officials in their eyes, and a lot of silver must be stuffed into people's pockets every year, and they must be held like gods and Buddhas. So even if Ren Xiaoyao is hard in the background now, it is necessary not to offend people.

went to the Red Man Pavilion, and the strange thing is that Ren Xiaoyao did not go directly to the wing room to find someone, but went to the back kitchen.

Cheng Beiwang is naturally no stranger to this place, and he used to go drinking with Song Liangchen and others. But Song Liangchen has been in good condition for too long, and only he will come over occasionally to take a look.

has been following in the dark, and it is not good to come forward, so he only saw Ren Xiaoyao go to the kitchen and then come out again, and then go and muttered to the old bustard for a while.

When she went upstairs, Cheng Beiwang appeared and asked the bustard what she had just said.

As soon as he saw him, the old bustard's face smiled like a flower, and he didn't hide it at all, and said directly: "That's Ren Ji's owner, and now Zhao Ji's shopkeeper is here to entertain Lord Qian of the household department, and Boss Ren probably wants to cut off the beard, and asked my mother for a side room and a girl who can play the piano." ”

Cheng Beiwang raised her eyebrows, people invited guests to dinner, how did she cut off her beard? Doesn't it look obtrusive? Although the connections of the household department have always been a must for businesses, the other party has taken the lead, and she is afraid that she does not have much chance of winning today.

Would you like to help?

After thinking for a while, Cheng Beiwang said to the old bustard: "Is there a room near the two of them?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." The old bustard hurriedly said: "Cheng Dudu, even if you don't have a mother, I have to give you an empty room immediately." You come with me. ”

Cheng Beiwang nodded, followed upstairs, and inquired about some details in Zhao Ji's wing.

"Shopkeeper Zhao is packing a banquet of twenty taels of silver, so that we can send good wine and good food to the top." The old bustard said: "In order to prepare this table, our kitchen has also spent all our efforts. ”

Twenty taels of silver for a table of dishes is really sky-high. What will Ren Xiaoyao do? Thirty taels? People don't necessarily come here to eat food.

Becoming more and more curious, Cheng Beiwang entered the house, sent the old bustard to listen to the left and right walls.

This place is not well insulated, and even a little loud noise can be heard. The room that the bustard gave him is really in excellent terrain, on the left is the room of Zhao Ji and the money manager, and on the right is Ren Yao's.

After arranging everything, Ren Xiaoyao opened the door, gave a few words to the Qin girl, and then looked outside and waited.

When the hour was about to be, the back kitchen began to send food upstairs, and plates of seafood delicacies were very good in appearance and strong in taste.

Many dignitaries like to eat the fresh food of the sea, but some people don't like to eat it, such as money management. And such news was obtained by her at a great price, and a person like Zhao Ji's shopkeeper must not know.

So sometimes, women are easier to deal with people than men, and there are many things that men can't think about, but women are naturally attentive and considerate.

The dishes were specially added by her to the kitchen, and the raw materials were all brought by her, and she also helped the kitchen solve a lot of trouble. The seafood delicacies are high-grade and expensive, enough to make up the twenty taels.

When it was estimated that the dishes were already on the table, Ren Xiaoyao stepped out of the door and politely knocked on the room booked by Zhao Ji's shopkeeper.

"Come in!" The voice of the money steward didn't sound very happy.

Ren Xiaoyao pushed the door with a smile and said very kindly: "I'm dining next to me, and I heard that the money manager is also here, so I came over to pay a salute." ”

Shopkeeper Zhao smiled awkwardly, looking at her unfriendly gaze: "Shopkeeper Ren is really polite, we are going to have dinner here." ”

When peers meet, they are always very red-eyed. Ren Xiaoyao didn't have stage fright at all, walked to the side of Steward Qian, looked at the dishes on the table, frowned, and said, "Why does Steward Qian love to eat seafood?" I remember yesterday in Queen Yan's house, you didn't even like to touch fish and meat, only ate beef. ”

Seeing him, Steward Qian also smiled and said lightly: "The shopkeeper is polite, this official doesn't like to eat seafood." ”

Shopkeeper Zhao suddenly realized: "It's strange why adults look unhappy, the kitchen here doesn't understand the food habits of adults, forgive me, let them remake a table immediately." ”

"That's a lot of trouble." Steward Qian pursed his lips.

The cold sweat behind the shopkeeper Zhao came down, he had been preparing such a meal for a long time today, and there were many things to ask for this to be in charge, but he didn't expect that before he could speak, he planted it on this meal first. If you want to redo a table, don't you have to make adults wait for half an hour?

Just as he was about to say something to redeem it, he listened to Ren Xiaoyao next to him and said: "It's very troublesome, adults are busy with official business, so you can't even eat a meal, right?" A table of good wine and food was ordered next door, and I didn't have time to move. If the adults and the shopkeeper Zhao don't dislike it, why don't they move over? ”

When Steward Qian heard this, he immediately stood up: "Go over, the smell of fish in this sea is very heavy." ”

"Your Excellency, please." Ren Xiaoyao bowed his head, led the money manager out, and showed a very friendly smile to Zhao's shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Zhao's face turned blue, this surnamed Ren has a good dart, he doesn't even have room to resist, how can it be so coincidental? Just ordered a table next door?

Unwillingly followed, but saw that there were not only vegetables next door, but also young girls playing the piano.

Entertaining guests in the Red Man Pavilion is because the money manager is lustful, Ren Xiaoyao obviously knows this, and he prescribes the right medicine, and the dishes on the table are all the money stewards' favorite food.

Steward Qian's face instantly looked good, and he even glanced at Ren Xiaoyao appreciatively: "Now that the hero is a young man, the future of the shopkeeper Ren can be described as a broad one." ”

"Wherever you are, you have to take care of it more than an adult." Ren Xiaoyao was at ease, sat down and greeted the money manager for a while, and talked about the recent salt sales, which completely turned Zhao Ji's shopkeeper into a foil.

Cheng Beiwang raised his eyebrows and chuckled.

The merchant is really cunning and shameless, and in such a situation, he can snatch people without a trace, which is also considered ...... Clever!

After thinking about it, he left the Red Man Pavilion and decided to go back to the palace to restore his life. Ren Xiaoyao is a person, give her some soil and she can grow into a big tree, and he doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

As a result, when they went to the palace, Shen Meijing and Song Liangchen were also having dinner.

"Don't be a picky eater!"

When he heard Lord Yan say this, he was reproachful and a little spoiled, and he trembled coldly.

Doesn't seem to be the right time to come?

The beautiful scenery in the house looked at Song Liangchen pitifully and said, "This dish is very delicious." ”

Song Liangchen's face turned green, and he was bored for a long time before gritting his teeth and said: "If it's unpalatable, you have to eat it, Miao Hui said it, you have been dizzy lately, but you have eaten less vegetables." ”

Nonsense, what's the matter with dizziness and eating? The mouth was puffed up and wanted to refute, but Meijing looked up and saw Cheng Beiwang standing at the door, and her eyes immediately lit up: "Come in, it's time to eat!" ”

Cheng Beiwang laughed dryly, glanced at Song Liangchen, bowed his hand as a salute, and then sat down unceremoniously, staring at the dish that made Meijing distressed: "What did the prince do?" ”

"It's not!" Song Liangchen quickly retorted: "The gentleman is far away from cooking." ”

"Really?" Cheng Beiwang raised his eyebrows, took the chopsticks and sandwiched the black green vegetables, and sighed: "The princess is really a blessing." ”

If such a dish is made in the kitchen, he eats the whole kitchen!
