The group followed Lu Jingshu to the south of the city, and the restaurant that Lu Jingshu said opened in the best location on the south street of the city, and the book was written in four big characters on the water side. At this time, there was a long queue at the entrance of the restaurant.

Lu Jingshu was dumbfounded for a moment: "This ...... How are we going to get in? "Is it difficult to declare your identity and go through the back door?

Shen Mingjiao glanced at the richly decorated restaurant and said, "If you have money, you can do it." ”

Lu Jingshu's eyes lit up: "What the princess means is that you can add money to cut the queue!" ”

Shen Mingjiao: "... Sort of! She pointed to the mother and son in the front row and looked at the begonia.

Begonia understood, stepped forward, took out five coins of silver from her purse, and said something to the woman with the child,

The woman glanced at the silver in Begonia's hand, a little unhappy, and Begonia took out five coins of silver from her purse.

When the woman saw this, she was obviously overjoyed, stuffed the number plate into Begonia's hand, took the silver and dragged the child away without hesitation.

Lu Jingshu was dumbfounded: "It's okay like this!" She was a little puzzled:

"The woman has been standing in line for so long, and she agreed for a tael of silver!" If she was sure to die, she wouldn't be happy.

The group walked forward, and Shen Mingjiao asked her rhetorically: "Then if it's you, what if someone gives you five hundred taels of silver?" ”

Lu Jingshu nodded without thinking about it: "Of course I do, five hundred taels can buy a lot of things." After saying that, I also reacted,

Shen Mingjiao explained as she walked: "The low-level people can only earn fifty wen a day when they go to the dock to work as coolies, and one or two pieces of silver can be enough for an ordinary people's family to live for two or three months." Just now, the woman was wearing a thin cotton coat and a silver hairpin on her head, which showed that she was a little rich family with a little extra money in her hand. ”

At this time, the people in front of the queue went in, and it was their turn. The spacious lobby was crowded, Xiao Er took the number plate and led the group to a table in the corner that was separated by a screen.

The group went over to get food, Lu Jingshu looked at the guests coming and going, and said casually: "If this shop is opened in the east of the city, where the powerful gather, the business will definitely be better." ”

Fuguang, who had not spoken, rarely spoke: "No, most of the people living in this area in the south of the city are small rich families or businessmen, and they don't have much spare money in their hands, so they will think about taking advantage." And the real rich people, they often pay attention to the taste and color of food, and do not care about money. Unless you work the ingredients, make it a high-end restaurant. ”

She looked at the small stove and grill on the table and exclaimed, "The owner of this shop is a smart guy who can not only come up with such a novel method, but also find the right position." ”

Shen Mingjiao looked at the unfamiliar decoration in the lobby, and knew that this must be Su Tian's idea again. After all, the name "on the water side" is too inconsistent with the name of the current restaurant restaurant, she casually asked Xiao Er, who helped add fire: "Is your owner's surname Ye?" ”

Xiao Er raised his head in surprise: "How does Madam know?" Then he straightened his waist with honor: "Madame is right, our owner is the Ye family, the richest businessman in Jiangnan......"

The little two wanted to continue, but the store was too busy, and he was soon called away by the customer.

Lu Jingshu picked up a bun and took a bite, then frowned, Xu was too full of expectations before, and at this time, she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"It's so unpalatable!"

Shen Mingjiao was not surprised, and took a string of tofu and roasted it back and forth on the iron frame. "Cooking so much food at the same time, do you want to know how fine it won't be?"

Haitang stuffed a bun into his mouth with one hand and said vaguely: "It's delicious!" ”

Shen Mingjiao watched her cheeks eat one by one, with her slightly round cheeks, there was a kind of silly cuteness.

She amusedly ordered the large pile of food on the table: "Can we eat back today, it's up to you to rely on Begonia?" ”

When Haitang heard this, she patted her belly proudly: "Don't worry, girl, I promise to complete the task!" I'm the best girl in our town. There was a lot of pride in his tone.

Watching the little girl take a few bites and kill a pie bigger than her face, Shen Mingjiao was silent, and held back a sentence for a while: "... It's good, it's a blessing to be able to eat! ”

At this moment, the ears of a man sitting on the other side of the screen moved, and after saying a word to his companion at the table, he stood up and walked over with his head bowed slightly. Seeing Shen Mingjiao sitting in the middle, he subconsciously wanted to salute.

After looking at the noise around him, he reacted immediately, and only lowered his head and called Mrs.

Shen Mingjiao looked up when she heard the sound and saw that it was Feng Wansheng. After not seeing him for many days, Feng Wansheng seems to have changed as a person, because his appearance is naturally limited, although he still gives people a sense of obscenity when he looks at people with three white eyes, he lacks the immodest feeling he used to have in his words and demeanor.

She smiled and nodded, and asked casually, "Come here for dinner?" ”

Feng Wansheng swallowed nervously: "Yes! ...... with a few friends from the past."

Seeing her looking over with a smile in her eyes, Feng Wansheng rubbed his palms nervously, and didn't know what to say.

Shen Mingjiao looked at him a little speechlessly: "I see that you are usually quite bold, why are you afraid of being like this every time you see me?" ”

Feng Wansheng lowered his head and smiled: "... No, no! ”

Anyone can hear the weakness in his tone, can he not be empty-hearted? When Shen Mingjiao and Feng Lisheng were just given to get married, there were many fanfiction books with Prince Su as the original form on the market.

And he also wrote a lot of follow-ups, all of them were Hei Shen Mingjiao's without exception.

Now that he is working under Princess Su, he is embarrassed and embarrassed.

He hesitated for a long time, and only held back one sentence: "...... Last month's account book has been sent to the palace, does Madame think there is something wrong? ”

Shen Mingjiao brushed some sauce on the roasted tofu, and praised it sincerely: "There is no problem, you did a good job." ”

Seeing that Feng Wansheng was relieved when he heard this, Shen Mingjiao seriously encouraged: "Work hard, the dividends at the end of the year are indispensable to you." ”

This matter has to start from more than two months ago, when Feng Lisheng had just left, and she was always a little embarrassed to do something, so she wanted to find some scripts to pass the time.

However, the book is too old, and she feels that she has read most of the books of the same type on the market.

Xu was too idle during that time, she had an idea,

asked Feng Wansheng to find him, planning to open a bookstore that sells books.

It is not difficult to find a shop, there are many names under the name of Su Wangfu, and the difficulty is to find a group of authors who are good at writing scripts and can innovate.

Coincidentally, Feng Wansheng happened to know several people of this type. Shen Mingjiao asked him to go back and ask someone who was interested to write a synopsis and the beginning of the story and send it over, regardless of the subject, if she took a fancy to it, she would give a salary of one or two silver per month, and the money she earned from the sale of the book she wrote was fifty-five cents.

As a result, she diverged her thinking and asked people to release the news, and within a few days, Feng Wansheng, who was in charge of the matter, received many submissions. There are even some articles that are extremely well written, no less than those travelogues of famous authors.
