Chapter Ninety-Three: Begging

Chapter Ninety-Three

Zhang Lun hurriedly said: "Emperor Qiqi, this person's surname is Song Mingnan, and he is the one of the seven hundred households in Zhengnanfang, and the seven hundredth household has always been the assistant minister's five-city Terracotta Division to govern the public security affairs of Zhengnanfangfang City. ”

Zhu Youzhu frowned and thought, "Song Nan? I've heard of this name. ”

Mu Bin hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this person is a meritorious person of the great victory in Ulzhou, who led a hundred soldiers and Jinyi guards in Ulzhou to block the seven hundred cavalry of the Tartars, and killed nearly 500 enemies in Ulzhou Jinyi Guard. ”

Zhu Youzhu put his hand on his forehead and said: "If it's really him, if you don't mention it, I forgot his name, and he was transferred to the capital by you?" ”

Mu Bin said: "The emperor was happy that day, and asked us to reward the meritorious ministers, and the minister thought, such a talent, should be transferred to Gyeonggi to serve, so he ordered Xiao Lang to arrange it in the Zhengnanfang Thousand Households to make a formal hundred households, sure enough, this son lived up to the emperor's grace and assisted Commander Zhang to do something. ”

Zhu Youzhu nodded and said, "Very good, very good." After saying two very good sentences, he didn't say more, and the ministers all understood in their hearts that it was very rare for the emperor to be able to say two sentences in a row, and I am afraid that the emperor would have remembered the name of Song Nan, needless to say, Mu Bin would definitely promote this Song Nan.

Fan Heng was angry and wanted to scold his mother, looking at Mu Bin's proud appearance, he couldn't wait to give Mu Bin a big slap in the face, Jin Yiwei got face in front of the emperor today, and the Dongchang under his command has made no achievements in recent days, and if it goes on like this, the limelight will be stolen by Mu Bin, the old boy.

At the end of the day, Hongzhi returned to the palace, Zhang Lun and Mu Bin earned enough face, secretly secretly having fun, Song Nan, who was ignorant of all this, was still pretending to be public and private at the moment, using official time to take a few school captains to help in the newly opened Yipin duck shop in Xuannanfang.

Xuannanfang's Yipin Duck Store is already the fourth store of the Song family, with the prosperity of several other businesses, Song Nan's funds are becoming more and more abundant, and the reputation of Yipin Duck has spread almost throughout the capital; Dozens of big restaurants have signed a contract with a duck, there are more than 300 roast ducks sent to the restaurant every day, and there are also mysterious customers who met in the old shop on Zhengnanfang Fork Street last time, since the person bought more than 100 roast ducks in one breath that day, the next day, the person appeared again and set a contract for 100 roast ducks a day.

The small roast duck restaurant has brought huge profits, which may be an exaggeration to describe it as a daily income, but in the capital, I am afraid that the Songjia roast duck restaurant can be called second to none in terms of the income from the trading of the same capital.

The chain expansion of the store, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more than 20 people employed, although Song Nan is a hands-off shopkeeper, but he also gave Ye Fanggu a lot of tricks in private, what coupons, what home delivery and so on, the customer only needs to send someone to say hello, explain when and where to ask for duck, when it comes, there will be a young man carrying a hot freshly baked roast duck to the door, cutting meat and deboning on the spot, and the hot skin bag is dipped in sauce to eat fresh; Of course, the price of this kind of service is also expensive, and only the rich merchants and big families in the capital can enjoy it, and the silver was calculated all the way by Song Nan into his pocket.

However, Song Nan is also very worried, everyone in the family is busy with their feet and earns a lot of money, but Song Nan is not very happy about this, what he means is that everyone in the family should be the shopkeeper, Ye Fanggu and Lu Qingli should also dress up beautifully as noblewomen, instead of being so hot and full of roast duck smell like now; Therefore, Song Nan is eager to find a shopkeeper who can help him, and according to later generations, he is looking for a professional manager who will take care of the industry for the Song family.

But the problem is that in this era without intellectual property rights, the recipe for making roast duck and sauce must not be leaked, once it is leaked, I am afraid that the streets will be full of first-class duck, and then I will make a fart of money; Rare is expensive, the Song family's first-grade duck is baked every day, more than 1,000 are naturally in demand in the capital with millions of people and rich people, but if the streets are full of first-class ducks, wouldn't it be equivalent to the cabbage to be eaten every day.

Song Nan was tormented in this happy trouble, and couldn't find a way to deal with it for a while, seeing that the family members were tired and thin, they could only tell them to just move their mouths without using their hands, and they were also more gentle to Ye Fanggu and Lu Qingli's two daughters, and from time to time they hugged their cousins or cousins and said some sweet words, the two cousins were tired, but the relationship with Song Nan was developing rapidly, except for not doing that embarrassing thing with Song Nan, the whole body was almost seen through by Song Nan, and he was familiar with the road.

At the intersection of Xuannanfang Iron Shovel Hutong and Maowei Hutong, Song Nan crossed his waist with one hand, and fanned the black black gauze crown in his hand with the other, and shouted: "Go up, go up...... A little further to the left. ”

Several guys were lying on the high stool, moving the big plaque of 'Yipin Duck' with gold characters on a red background according to Song Nan's shouting, and they were busy sweating like rain, and it was easy to put the position to Song Nan's satisfaction, and fixed it with a nail on the nail of table tennis.

Lu Qingli took a small teapot from the store and brought a cup of turquoise tea to quench Song Nan's thirst, as if it was not the young men who were tired, but Song Nan who was standing below shouting.

Song Nan took the teacup and drank it dry, pointed to the shop and asked Lu Qingli, "Qingli, how is this face?" It's grand enough, there are two big old shops. ”

Lu Qingli nodded and said, "Well, our business is getting bigger and bigger." ”

Song Nan said with a smile: "You are about to become the chief shopkeeper of the four stores, looking at the capital, a little girl can be the chief shopkeeper of the four stores, I'm afraid you are the only one." ”

Lu Qingli grinned and said: "That's it, I was born to be a shopkeeper, not to mention four, even eight and ten." ”

Song Nan smiled and said: "That's absolutely no problem, what kind of person Qingli is, there is a division of teaching: women don't let you have eyebrows, this means you." ”

Lu Qingli knew that Song Nan was teasing her, and she was very happy in her heart, giggling non-stop; Song Nan pulled her to the store, and said: "Ming'er take a moment, I'll take a day off, let's go to the capital, speaking of which, it's been a few months since I arrived in the capital, and I haven't accompanied you and Aunt Fang to play outside, and by the way, I will also buy you some winter clothes and buy a few decent jewelry; When you sisters came to the capital with me, it was like making cattle and horses for me, and I was busy losing weight, and I really didn't want to go. ”

Lu Qingli pouted and said, "Is Brother Song treating me and my cousin as outsiders?" My cousin said that it's boring to have nothing to do all day, and it's good to be a little busy. ”

Song Nan leaned over and whispered in her ear: "It's just that I don't treat you as outsiders, I'm very distressed, I think about it, I want Zhang Bang to ask someone to help me take care of my business, you can't be tired here, three or four shops are easy to deal with, if there are ten or twenty in the future, you won't be tired of life." ”

Lu Qingli said: "Didn't you say that night that you were worried about the leakage of the roast duck technique, and invited an outsider to be the shopkeeper, wouldn't it be leaked?" ”

Song Nan said: "I thought of a way to prevent this from happening, let's find a separate place to roast duck, isolate each process, and assign a person to be responsible for a process and a flow operation; In this way, outsiders will not know all the processes of the road, and you will also know the way of the road, and the taste of our duck will be very different if the process is not in place, and there will be no way to imitate it. ”

Lu Qingli thought for a while and said, "But, what if these people get together to communicate with each other?" ”

Song Nan said: "It's easy to do, separate the house, and the people invited to do not know each other, and when they go to work, they don't look at each other, and they work at different times, so that these people can't meet at all, and they may even not know that they are working for my duck, and the possibility of leaking secrets is greatly reduced." And for the sake of grasping, I will ask Uncle Zhong to control the time in the most difficult process; I told Da Niu that I wanted him to take the time to go back to Ulzhou, pick up Uncle Li and Aunt Li, and invite more than a dozen small Shiqiao neighborhoods in Ulzhou. ”

Lu Qingli clapped his hands and said, "It's a good way, it's just a little more cumbersome." ”

Song Nan smiled bitterly: "No way, this is a cash cow, you see, we still have to buy a big house, we still have to buy a big business, we still need to make a lot of money, do you want to live in a rented courtyard forever?" Also, you don't want to have a nice and spacious boudoir? In short, if you have a large family, I will buy it for you. ”

Lu Qinglipu fanned his big eyes and said, "I want to, but ...... What I want most is that you will always be there for us. ”

Song Nan scratched her nose and said, "I can't run again." Then he looked around at no one, leaned closer to her ear and said, "Unless you want to run yourself, I can't do without your ecstasy hands." ”

Lu Qingli blushed and said in a low voice: "Brother Song is really a bad person, not like a scholar at all. ”

Song Nan laughed and said, "Who are you scolding?" ”

Lu Qingli rolled her eyes and said, "I don't know if you are really good to me and my cousin or hypocritical." ”

Song Nan smacked his lips and said, "What is this called?" ”

Lu Qingli said: "Really? ”

Song Nan said: "The conscience of heaven and earth." ”

Lu Qingli said: "Okay, then it will test your sincerity, my cousin said that I want a jade bracelet......

Song Nan waved his hand and said, "Buy ...... Whatever it is. ”

Lu Qingli smiled: "My cousin said that there is only that one." ”

Song Nan was stunned and said, "Which one?" ”

Lu Qingli said: "It's the green bracelet you hid in the bedside box, are you willing?" ”

Song Nan was stunned, the jade bracelet that Lu Qingli was referring to was the one that the lord of the county mortgaged for Zhang Lun to buy the silver, and he wanted to find a time to return it to Zhang Lun, but he didn't expect Lu Qingli and Ye Fanggu to know the existence of this bracelet, and at this moment Lu Qingli opened his mouth to ask for the bracelet for Ye Fanggu, which really made Song Nan embarrassed.
