"Okay, host."

The shopkeeper faintly guessed Tao Xi's thoughts, and was suddenly very excited, if he could, he would be willing to be this person who pioneered the territory.

It's just that when he thinks of this hot pot shop, he is a little reluctant.

The two were discussing business in the private room, but there was a commotion below, and the shopkeeper frowned and got up.

"Boss, I'll go down and see what's going on."

"yes, okay."

Tao Xi took a sip of tea, and Qing Yu stood behind her, gently pinching Tao Xi's shoulder.

"Master, if you alone spread out the branches, I'm afraid the speed will be a little slow."

After all......

If the Qiu family and the Jiang family were smarter, they would still be able to make a lot of money if they didn't go to the place where Taoxi went, and changed to a place where Taoxi didn't have time to open.

Tao Xi didn't know, she pressed her eyebrows, and asked Qing Yu softly:

"Qing Yu, do you have any good suggestions?"

Growing up in Kyoto, she should be able to give some advice.

Sure enough, Qing Yu whispered: "If the owner can find another powerful partner, the Qiu family and the Jiang family can't help the owner." ”

The most important thing is that the owner is still an ordinary commoner, looking for not only a cooperative partnership, but also shelter.

"I see."

It's not that Tao Xi hasn't thought about it, but she's been busy lately, and when she was reminded by Qing Yu, she subconsciously remembered that she was taking care of things.

"Let's go, let's go down."

She was a little eager to talk to Steward Gu.

As soon as the two of them came downstairs, they saw that there was a mess downstairs, and a middle-aged woman was crying miserably.

"Xianggong, Xianggong, your life is hard, I finally wanted to eat a good meal, but my life was gone.

This black-hearted shop, don't eat here anymore, this thing will eat the dead! ”

"Hugh is talking nonsense, the things in our shop are clean, how can we eat the dead!"

The shopkeeper was about to be angry with this woman, but she was a woman, otherwise he would have driven people away!

The woman slapped her thigh and cried, and in front of her lay a corpse, which had turned blue and had indeed been poisoned.

Someone wondered, "God, could it really be something wrong with the things in this shop?" ”

"Nonsense, why is it okay for other people to eat it, and he died so badly after eating?"

"How do I know, if it's really because of this restaurant, I won't dare to come again."

"But the hot pot is really delicious."

"I heard that Hongyunlou is also going to have a hot pot shop, let's go over there to eat."

“……”

Seeing that the people sent by Young Master Qiu were digging the foot of the wall openly, the shopkeeper was half angry.

There is anything unclear about this matter, it is clear that it is a set set by Young Master Qiu.

He blushed and said: "I have already reported to the official, how did your husband die, I think the people of the Yamen will definitely find out." ”

They Xiwang hot pot must not carry such a big black pot on their backs, otherwise who will dare to come to their restaurant to eat in the future?

Hearing this, a trace of panic crossed the woman's eyes, and she quickly cheered up again, no, it is impossible.

Young Master Qiu said that he would do it, and she just played it!

Thinking of the money she could get, the woman continued to make trouble unreasonably, "Even if the official comes, it will be your restaurant's fault."

If I hadn't come to your shop to eat, my father-in-law would be fine now, and you would have accompanied my father-in-law......

"I'm weird."

Tao Xi Shi Ran walked out, his voice with a touch of coldness, "You said that your husband died, why didn't you shed a single tear?" ”

As soon as Tao Xi reminded him, everyone suddenly realized that the woman was crying desperately, but there was not a single tear.

"Tide, where is this sad look."

"How do I think she still has rouge on her face, and the men are dead, but she is still in the mood to make herself beautiful?"

"She shouldn't have found a home yet, right?"

“……”

was so suspicious by everyone, the woman cried angrily, but it was not because the man was sad because he died, but because she was sad because she was accused by everyone like this.

"I didn't, Xianggong died because he ate something in their shop!"

"Is that so?"

Tao Xi snorted, "Then let me ask you, when did your husband come to our shop to eat?"

Did one person eat it or several people, and when did he die of poison? ”

"It was about the end of noon, I ate with Xianggong, and when we returned home, he was poisoned and died."

The woman pursed her lips, thinking of the fragrance of the hot pot, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva, not to mention, the taste was really good.

After speaking, she said as if she was recalling: "It should have died before the time." ”

"Then I'm curious, you came to eat with your father-in-law, why didn't you die when he died?"

Tao Xi twitched his mouth speechlessly, expressing deep sympathy for Young Master Qiu's IQ, is it because she is afraid that she will not be able to see such a clumsy planting?

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "No, I didn't eat it, this hot pot is too spicy, I can't eat spicy, I just accompanied Xianggong." ”

She covered her eyes, a little annoyed in her heart, Young Master Qiu really just asked her to accompany her husband to eat, but she couldn't help it, and she also ate with it.

At this time, a guy from Xiwang hot pot pointed at her and said, "You're lying, I obviously saw you eating too."

And you ate more than your father-in-law, and you even added a dish halfway through. ”

This fellow has a good memory, Tao Xi glanced at him approvingly, and the fellow continued as if encouraged:

"It's your father-in-law who can't eat spicy, but he will satisfy your taste, and he won't eat much."

Woman:!!!!

Damn, she didn't expect a guy to have such a good memory, she blushed, "You're lying!"

There are so many people in the shop, why do you remember me, obviously you are helping your boss speak. ”

yes, that's it, the guy must have done it on purpose.

"Heh~"

Tao Xi's fingertips grinded slightly, and suddenly stepped forward and slapped the woman's face in front of everyone.

At the moment when the woman was stunned, Tao Xi did not stop moving, and slapped several times in a row.

"You don't have to wait for the government to come, I also know that you killed your father-in-law, but slandered our restaurant, and his heart can be punished!"

Some of the tiny powder floated directly to the tip of the woman's nose, which was the truth powder that Fang had just been shouting in her consciousness.

This thing sounds very interesting, as long as thirty points, Tao Xi is a little curious, so he bought it and tried it.

The woman collapsed and covered her face, because she had been sitting on the ground for too long, her legs were a little numb, so she didn't fight back against Tao Xi in time.

But she didn't forget to cry and accuse Tao Xi, "Look at you, the owner of this Xiwang hot pot is too unreasonable and actually beats people!! ”

The people who eat melons looked at Tao Xi in confusion, with a look of surprise, "What, she is the owner?" ”

"Is there such a young owner?"

"But it's really wrong to beat someone, what misunderstanding can be reasonable."
