Chapter 36: Barricades
"Old Zhangtou, does this little brother plan to make the business of grilled fish in the town?" said Boss Yu, who looked a little worried.
Boss Yu's age is not young, in this era, it is normal for modern people to live seventy or eighty years old, and it is very good for them, the mountain people in the mountains, to live to be fifty or sixty years old!
Coupled with some special reasons, Boss Yu plans to sell his restaurant and go back to retire as soon as possible.
"Yes, there is, but unfortunately there is not enough silver taels, and another shop is not too easy to find. Li Dai groaned.
He had plans to open a shop, but he didn't do this grilled fish business by himself, but wanted to give his family more livelihood.
"That's it! I'm not too young, I'm going to go home to retire, and I'll sell one of my restaurants in the town in the near future, and if the little brother has enough money, he can come to my restaurant to have a look. Boss Yu said with a depressed expression.
Hearing Dumb's ability to grill fish, Boss Yu originally planned to sell his restaurant to Dumb, but now it doesn't seem too possible!
How can you sell a restaurant to the other party if you don't have money, it seems that you are also thinking about it, how can the other party be just a poor mountain drum, how can you have the money to buy a restaurant in the town.
"Oh, then I don't know where Boss Yu's restaurant is, if the location is good, I will really consider it. Li Dai said with joy in his heart.
It's a drowsy pillow – just in time.
Whatever you want!
Although the silver two are not available for the time being, as long as Xiao Yi and the mountain rat help find some high-quality herbs to sell for some money, it is still no problem.
It's just a good shop but it's hard to find, which is related to the future of the grilled fish restaurant business.
"The location, Lao Zhangtou knows, you can ask Lao Zhangtou to take you over to have a look. Boss Yu said with a smile on his face.
I am still very confident in the location of my store, which has the care of many elderly customers, and the flow of people in that place is still very large.
"Then I don't know how many taels of silver it will take to buy your restaurant?" Li Dai glanced at Lao Zhangtou, and saw that the other party nodded with satisfaction, knowing that the location of the store was okay.
But I don't know the price of the other party, if the other party has to ask for a sky-high price, Li Dai will naturally not consider it.
He just wanted to make a living for his family, so that his family would not go into the mountains to face powerful monsters like him, and suffer from pain and death threats all the time.
"My restaurant is relatively large, there are two storefronts in front, and there is a large courtyard in the back, if you only need one shop, only ten taels of silver is enough, if you want to buy them all, it is estimated that thirty taels of silver will be almost enough. Boss Yu introduced with a focused expression.
In Boss Yu's thoughts, he didn't plan to sell them all to Dumb, after all, his store is located in a good location, and the place is also big, if Dumb hears that the price is too expensive and unbearable, he may retreat, and his own store will be even more difficult to sell!
Now I have to sell a little bit of it.
"Okay, I still need to discuss this matter with my parents, thank you Boss Yu!" Li Dai nodded slightly.
These thirty taels of silver are by no means a small amount, even if they can be gathered in the future, they have to discuss with their families, although their father and brother are in the car, but now most of the time the family affairs are still in charge of the mother.
If you hear Dumb's promise, if Dumb's mother hears this, I'm afraid she may faint in a hurry.
"You're welcome, but you'd better hurry, if anyone wants to buy it, I might do it early. Boss Yu said to himself.
It seems that Boss Yu is forcing an order, and hopes that Dumb can settle the matter of buying the store as soon as possible.
"Okay, I understand!" Li Dai said with a smile.
Bidding farewell to Boss Yu, who opened a restaurant, a donkey cart and a carriage swayed towards Shanlong Village.
"Adai, are you really thinking about buying Boss Yu's restaurant?" Father Li, who was sitting in a donkey cart, suddenly asked.
Although Father Li didn't interject when he was chatting with Boss Yu just now, he just had some thoughts in his heart, and waited until Boss Yu left before he opened his mouth to ask.
"Let's take a look first, if you wait for your injuries to heal, and Lang Zhong in the town thinks that it won't affect the eldest brother's injuries, as long as you get a little more silver taels, you may not be able to buy that restaurant. Li Dai smiled slightly.
He has not decided on this matter, and he does not want to buy Boss Yu's restaurant at all, at least he needs to go to that restaurant in person before he can officially decide.
Of course, the premise of all this is to get money, and the top priority is to treat Li's father's injury first, as for the injury of his brother Li Da, although in his eyes, after all, he is a young man who is somewhat better, not to mention that even if he wants to be treated, it can't be done in a while, at least he needs to go into the county to find Da Langzhong for a consultation, so as to know how much it costs to get together the silver taels.
"Agu, your family's stupid consideration is still necessary, even if you are cured, do you still want to go into the mountains? In fact, in our hunting team, if we are not forced to make a living, there are a few people who are willing to go into the mountains, so why should we go into the mountains and take that risk if we can have a business in the town?" said Lao Zhangtou with a few words.
Although Lao Zhangtou has only learned a little bit of writing, he can be regarded as a real cultural person among so many mountain people!
I still think a little about many life experiences, and I don't know if this is a drinking and chatting with people, or a life truth that I have learned from books.
"Yes, Dumb, if you really want to take down a restaurant, your grilled fish skills are so good, I think it will be a big seller, and I don't want to go into the mountains at that time, so I will run to your restaurant." Zhang Goudan also followed the talk.
Although Zhang Goedan is a young mountain man, as a mountain man, Zhang Goedan still has an ideal and ambitious mountain man.
Since I was a child, I have hoped to be able to leave the mountains and enter the town or even the county seat to live, but there has been no way, how can I get to those rich lords as an ordinary poor mountain person.
But now it seems that the opportunity has come, as long as Dumb is willing to lead everyone into the town to open a grilled fish restaurant, according to Dumb's grilled fish skills, it is completely a big hit, as a brother who follows Dumb, he can enter the town and settle down sooner or later......
"Dumb, you see, I'll help you run. Li Erniu also blushed when he listened.
He also paid attention to Lao Zhangtou and Zhang Goudan's words, and even became very moved.
"Hey, you guys, I don't know where the silver taels in the restaurant are, of course, if we can really do a good job, can Dumb not ask you two for help!" said the old man.
In fact, Lao Zhangtou is also very excited, hoping to be a townman, but he has watched Dumb grow up since he was a child, and he has a very great trust in Dumb, and he has always been very optimistic about Dumb.
"Yes, yes, it's still old and smart, dumb, we're so happy to decide, when your restaurant opens, remember to call me." Zhang Gou said lightly.
"Don't worry, I'll talk about healing my father's injuries first. Li Dai smiled faintly.
"We have to hurry up on this matter, I think we will wait for the time to eat the grilled fish, call all the people of the hunting team, and discuss it properly when the time comes." Lao Zhangtou nodded, feeling that this matter should be done as a big thing.
Because there are not many people coming to the town, there is no way for either a donkey cart or a horse-drawn cart to sit on.
Usually it is also the turn to enter the town, to consider who is going to the town to buy something, or to ask the people who have entered the town to bring something back.
Only some of the members of the hunting party who came to the town this time came, and the rest were still resting at home, and not all of them came to the town.
"It's okay, it's just a lot of effort!" Li He said slightly apologetically.
Li He is very relieved about Dumb's skills in making grilled fish, but there seem to be a lot of people at the dinner today, there are at least fifteen people in the hunting team, plus ten people in Dumb's family, it seems that he is a little embarrassed to make so many grilled fish at once.
"It's nothing, if it's too late, you can also help!" Li Dai said calmly.
Although there are a little more people, Dumb is not embarrassed at all, anyway, he has plans to open a grilled fish restaurant in the town in the future.
If such a small number of people can't cope with the grilled fish, then how can they do the grilled fish business in the town, once the business of eating grilled fish in the town is popular, it will be the passenger flow of hundreds of people.
This can be regarded as a little pressure on Dumb himself, using this as the basis of his experience to prepare in advance for the opening of the grilled fish restaurant.
At the intersection of Sanjin Village, from a distance, there is a carriage walking unhurriedly in front, followed by an old man's donkey cart!
The old man driving the donkey cart wore a broken straw hat on his head, and his hair exposed to the brim of the hat was already gray.
On his shoulders is a gray but not gray, yellow and yellow gown.
The whole back, black and shiny, sparkled as if coated with a layer of oil.
The lower trouser legs rolled up to the knees, and the hairy calves were covered with countless tendons, large and small, connected by high bulging blood vessels.
There are no shoes on his feet, and the old skin on the feet is afraid of being a finger thick.
The old man sitting on the donkey cart had a dry tobacco pouch stuck in his waist, and the cigarette purse was pulled on his buttocks, swinging on both sides like a pendulum.
"It's coming, it's coming!" Jin Fu, who was waiting at the intersection of Sanjin Village, was the first to find it and reminded.
Jin Guo (Jin Guozi), Jin Geng (Captain of the Hunting Team), Jin Fu, and Jin Jing had been waiting here for a long time, only to find that Lao Zhangtou and their donkey cart were coming.
"Lao Zhangtou, is their donkey cart here?" Jin Geng hurriedly asked with a move in his heart.
I've been waiting for this for a long time, and I've seen my patience dissipate.
I wonder if they went to town and waited until the next day to come back.
