"Huh? Brother-in-law, he, he...... Is he really going to follow us down the mountain? ”

The moon was high, and Situ Xi and his party were only about to return home at this time, while Zhong Limo was facing Qixian standing in the corner of the room, asking unbelievable questions.

"As you can see, I am also entrusted by someone, Brother Mo, find someone to find him a regular robe, and change this monk's robe first." Situ Xi also supported his forehead, he didn't expect that he would encounter so many things just by going out on a safari for a day.

"Yes...... Did Abbot Xuanyi let you follow your brother-in-law to travel to Hongchen? Zhong Limo heard Situ Xi's instructions, nodded in response, and then walked to Qixian and asked him directly about his intentions.

"Unspeakable." Seven strings simply replied in an indifferent voice.

"You ......" Zhong Limo was choked by his words, but because Zhong Limo and Situ Xi were present, he was not as knowledgeable as Qixian, Zhong Limo glanced at him and then stopped talking to him, turned around and walked out.

"Steward Chen, can I trouble you with something?" Situ Xi recruited Steward Chen on the side.

"Uncle, please give me all the orders." Steward Chen immediately trotted in front of Situ Xi.

"That's right, there is suddenly one more person accompanying me today, and I didn't prepare it in advance, so please help me arrange his accommodation."

"Uncle, it's a trivial matter, this matter is wrapped up in the old slave!" Steward Chen patted his chest, just looking for a place to live for others, this is too simple.

"Since he wants to live for a long time, how about the old slave just find another house on the edge of your yard, uncle?"

"If you can find it, of course it's the best." Situ Xi nodded and thanked Steward Chen, then turned his head to look at Zhong Li and whispered, "Let's go, it's not early, it's time to go back." ”

……

"It should be here, right?"

At the door of the sake restaurant, Fan Lao was holding a pamphlet in his hand, he looked up to confirm the door plaque again, and after tidying up his robe, he stepped forward and knocked on the door of the restaurant.

"Shopkeeper Zhang is here?"

After a moment of silence, the closed door creaked, and the old man opened the door from the inside with a puzzled expression, and looked out to see who was visiting so late.

The lights were lit in the restaurant, Fan Lao and Shopkeeper Zhang's eyes met, he did not hesitate, and directly clasped his fists and saluted Zhang's shopkeeper: "Is it Shopkeeper Zhang?" Old Fan Yong, I don't know if the Nine Kings can be in the restaurant at this time? ”

Fan Yong...... Are you Fan Lao? Xige'er is not in the store at the moment, he seems to be out to play today. When Shopkeeper Zhang heard the word Fan Yong, he immediately remembered that Situ Xi had mentioned this name in the text, and he understood the identity of the old man in front of him.

"It turned out to be out, no wonder the old man saw that the mansion of the Nine Kings was empty today."

Fan Lao nodded, he looked at the shopkeeper Zhang, and there was no contempt in his heart.

I just heard him call Situ Xi Xi'er, which means that the shopkeeper of the restaurant has a close relationship with the Nine Kings, and he is here to discuss matters related to the restaurant with the shopkeeper Zhang, which is what Situ Xi asked him to do before.

"Rong Lao Tuo called you Brother Zhang, I don't know if I can let my brother and I enter the store to talk about it, I came today to give the matter of the restaurant to my brother."

"Ah, yes, Brother Fan, please come in, come in and have a cup of hot tea!" Shopkeeper Zhang slapped his forehead and hurriedly invited Fan Lao into the restaurant.

"It turns out that my brother also has such a booklet in his hand." Walking into the store, Fan Lao immediately saw a book identical to his hand on the wooden table with an oil lamp lit in the room.

"Yes, don't hide it from my brother, just a while before you came, I was still discussing the matter of this restaurant with the little girl, Xi Ge'er's ideas are too novel, and we don't understand a lot of things."

"Yes, the Nine Kings are also extremely talented in business, and many of these business methods are old and rotten after seeing it, I only feel amazed."

Fan Lao Shen thought about Zhang's shopkeeper's words, and he was also looking through the plan of the jade wine house given to him by Situ Xi when he was free recently, which was described in detail from the design of the restaurant to the grasp of the customer's psychology, and with his experience in business over the years, he could naturally see that these ideas were extremely practical.

"Let's not talk about these for the time being, I want to talk to Brother Zhang about the purchase of the restaurant, we had better settle it in these two days."

"Brother Fan, Xige'er wrote me a letter last time, specifically saying that I should go to Dongshi to see if there is any restaurant that intends to transfer, so I have also run a lot of places in the past two days, and I have found a suitable place now."

"I want to hear about it."

"The restaurant is on Lezhen Road, called Baiyi Building, the store is not big or small, perhaps because of the unfavorable business, the owner behind it is intended to sell, I went to take a special look, this restaurant is good in terms of location and space...... It's just that after all, it's a store on Lezhen Road, and it's probably not easy to buy it. ”

Baiyi Building, Fan Lao has some impressions, there is indeed such a restaurant on Lezhen Road, but the magnates on weekdays seem to prefer Swallow Building, and they also lost in the competition when they came to this Baiyi Building.

As for the difficulty of purchasing, with his money and Situ Xi's background, it should still be possible to buy a restaurant.

"None of this should be a problem."

Hearing Fan Lao's confident words, Shopkeeper Zhang's heart moved, it seems that this Fan Lao Brother is really very powerful.

"Then how about my brother go with me tomorrow to have a look?"

"That's it."

……

"Sister Huang, how do you feel that you haven't seen the deputy envoy much in the past few days, what is he busy with?"

In a luxurious courtyard, Chen Pu and Chen Zhishu were chatting under the moon, and the cooperation between the two countries had reached the stage of final discussion and interaction of interests, and it had come to an end for the time being, and the people in charge of the mission had been resting recently.

"I don't know much about the deputy envoy, but the rest of the officials should be having fun somewhere at the moment, I heard that someone has invited them to a banquet today, and they will go to the bath in the evening."

"What? Didn't the imperial sister turn down these invitations one by one, how dare they go without permission? ”

Chen Pu's reaction was a little fierce when he heard this, he was almost bored for the past two days, but he didn't expect the ministers under him to be chic outside.

"I just sent back the invitation card inviting you and me, and the ministers have been working hard during this time, so it's okay to rest occasionally." Chen Zhi swinged, ignoring Chen Pu's small emotions.

"Sister Huang, are you a little too cautious, these magnates of the Chu State have no intention of harming us."

"After all, this is in another country, so it's better for the two of us to try not to get involved in some strange disputes."
