Zhao Dequan was choked by Lin Xi's call, and he had nothing to say.

Not only did he have nothing to say, but he also quickly realized another meaning of Lin Xi, that is, the guests of Keyunlou were dignitaries, and Lin Xi only sold hot pot ingredients, which was aimed at the people.

In this way, all the guests are included in them.

The thing is, if they're in a partnership, then they definitely get a lot out of that. Anyway, the people's money has been earned by them.

But they're not!

In Keyunlou, Lin Xi occupies a share, and the money earned by Keyunlou will be distributed to Lin Xi. But he can't share the money that Lin Xi's department store makes!

Lin Xi said lightly: "Zhao Zhangshi, I did a good job with you, but Keyunlou didn't let me interfere much, right?" I want to open a shop, and you know that. What's the matter, looking at your face now, it makes others think that I am your person, and I can sell what you promise me to sell. ”

Zhao Dequan's heart was shocked, and he quickly woke up, realizing that Lin Xi was angry.

Lin Xi took a sip of tea unhurriedly and said lightly: "I didn't lie to Zhao Zhangshi before, I sell everything in this shop, but the hot pot ingredients sell better." I didn't ask Zhao Zhangshi to know in advance, I, Lin Xi, apologize to you, as a friend, I really didn't do it right. ”

"But since Zhao is so unhappy, let's spread it out and say, I will never sell the hot pot ingredients sold in Keyunlou in the future. In the same way, what I sell here, Keyunlou doesn't have to sell anymore. ”

Zhao De's heart sank.

He knew that Lin Xi was referring to the spicy hot pot ingredients.

Only Lin Xi knows the recipe of this hot pot ingredient, and only she has red peppers, if she is unwilling to sell it, Keyunlou will not only be unable to do it, but will also suffer a great loss.

Zhao Dequan reluctantly squeezed out a smile, "Look at what Miss Lin said, where is it as serious as Miss Lin thought." I'm angry that Miss Lin doesn't treat Zhao as a friend, and I didn't know in advance. Little things, little things. ”

Lin Xi put down the teacup and said in a serious tone: "This is indeed what I thought about inconsiderately. Now, I have also discovered that doing business is so bad, even friends, and it is easy to be suspicious. The relationship between me and Zhao Zhangshi is not easy, and it should not be consumed like this. ”

Zhao Dequan chuckled in his heart, "Miss Lin means ......"

Lin Xi said: "From now on, my cooperation with Keyunlou will be broken, and I will no longer ask for your share of profits." If there is another list of new dishes, I will sell them to you. ”

Zhao Dequan immediately became anxious, "How can this work!" ”

Ke Yunlou's voice aside, the expectations he poured into Lin Xi were so high, and he was counting on taking advantage of her to get in touch with the government!

Others may not know, but Zhao Dequan has long known through his connections in other places that the imperial court wants to open up commerce with Biansai, and set up a group of imperial merchants to communicate with Biansai among the people.

Even if he can't get a quota to do business with outside the border, of course, he didn't dare to think about this, but if he can get in touch with the imperial court, even if he can't become an imperial businessman, it will be of great benefit to his future path!

Therefore, Zhao Dequan fell in love with the particularity of Lin Xi's Xianggong Shen Chen in the official mansion early.

At this time, it is impossible for him to give up!

Zhao Dequan said solemnly: "Miss Lin, you really misunderstood. I have come here mainly to congratulate you. How can you and I be friends, if you don't tell me in advance what you want to sell, I'm just sad, and I don't mean anything else. ”

Lin Xi felt a little strange.

She said that it was so excessive, Zhao Dequan could still swallow a good voice and talk to her?

Zhao Dequan said at this time: "In the future, if you have such an injury, Miss Lin should not say it again." Miss Lin is now opening a shop to make money, and Zhao is naturally very happy for Miss Lin, and he also prepared a small gift. In the future, we can be regarded as doing business similarly and supporting each other. ”

Lin Xi secretly looked at Zhao Dequan, and seeing that his expression was sincere and not fake, he suppressed the thoughts in his heart and nodded: "Naturally, there are things I did wrong in this matter." Zhao Zhangshi, don't worry, I will naturally not touch the guests of your guest Cloud Building. In the future, if there is an opportunity, the money will still be earned together. ”

Zhao Dequan smiled and secretly wiped his sweat.

At this time, Xu Wu knocked on the door outside, "Boss, the people from your family are here." ”

Shen Chen: Them?

Lin Xi immediately got up, "Zhao Zhangshi, you ......"

Zhao Dequan hurriedly said: "It's not too early, and the words are over, let's go out." ”

Lin Xi nodded, and the two of them left to the front hall together, just in time to see Shen Chen helping to sort out the remaining goods, and the three of them looked around curiously.

"Shen Chen."

Lin Xi screamed, Shen Chen, who was not far away, put down his things and looked back at her, and the children surrounded Lin Xi first.

Lin Xi touched their heads and said to Zhao Dequan: "Zhao Zhangshi, I'm very busy here, so I won't leave you more." ”

Zhao Dequan also wanted to ask one last thing: "Miss Lin, why haven't you seen the county lieutenant here today?" ”

Lin Xi said strangely: "The county lieutenant has a lot of opportunities, and he is not familiar with me, what are you doing here?" ”

Shen Chen glanced at Zhao Dequan with a faint expression.

Zhao Dequan didn't know what to say, and said with a dry smile: "Just ask, didn't you go to the yamen some time ago, Miss Lin?" Since Miss Lin is busy here, I won't bother much. ”

After he finished speaking, he quickly left with the account room.

Lin Xi frowned. Hearing the child's voice calling her, she found a few novelties for them to play with, and asked the five brothers to continue to reconcile, and she walked to Shen Chen's side.

"Zhao Dequan came, and sure enough, he came to ask me about the hot pot ingredients. I thought it would take a bit of talk to solve it, but I didn't expect him to say that it would be okay by himself. ”

Shen Chen glanced outside, thoughtful.

Immediately looked at Lin Xi, his expression softened, and explained: "It should be too involved in your interests, and it is not easy for him to break off." ”

Lin Xi nodded in agreement.

Shen Chen turned and said: "However, in the next few years, the lady and Zhao Dequan will only maintain the current cooperative relationship, and do not add new partner business." ”

Lin Xi didn't understand: "Why? ”

Shen Chen glanced at the five Xu brothers, and said in a low voice: "Zhao Dequan is quite interested in the official mansion, he may want to take the path of the imperial businessman." However, the business opened up by the imperial court in recent years is extremely risky and should not be participated. ”

Lin Xi understood, and co-authored Zhao Dequan, like Wang Yaozu, fell in love with the relationship between Shen Chen and the government.

It's because of this that Zhao Dequan endured it in front of her, right?

Zhao Dequan felt that Shen Chen was invincible in the official mansion, and probably felt that after pulling her into the gang to work together, even if there was a real risk and loss of money, Shen Chen would not see her suffer a loss and help her, and he would be guaranteed at that time.

After Lin Xi figured it out, he was speechless.

Why do you want to pry Shen Chen's door open from her?

Shen Chen looked like he was so powerful in the official mansion, and would he be influenced by her to do anything?
