The princess only wants to get rich and support her family
Chapter 60: Meeting a noble person, visiting a restaurant
If most people's wrists were twisted, their first reaction would be to scream. But the man was different. He just turned pale, let go of Hu Luanfei's hand, smiled, and said, "Brother, you worry too much. I just want to see your daughter's delicate hands."
Qi Siliao's attitude turned cold. "What are you doing?"
"Look at her delicate and smooth skin. You can tell she seldom does farm work. I wonder how she grows such good fruits and vegetables. And she's such a good cook. I want to invite her to our Zuihualou for a visit. What do you think?"
Qi Siliao lowered his eyes and fixed his gaze on her.
Hu Luanfei felt the burning gaze coming at him, and subconsciously raised his head. He asked, "What do you think?"
Seeing his unpleasant expression, it was as if a cold wind blew around her, causing her to shrink her neck and unconsciously clench her fists. "If I say I want to go, do you agree?"
Qi Si Liao looked away and said coldly: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. If you want to go, I'll go with you."
"Uh...okay!"
The man led the way in front. Qi Siliao held her hand and held the horse with the other hand, and walked towards Zuihualou step by step.
She wanted to know the prices of dishes in the restaurant and roughly how much a meal would cost, which would help her develop a new business.
Zuihualou and Baihualou are separated by only one street. Both are restaurants, but they have different owners.
Stopping in the middle of the road, Hu Luanfei looked left and right at the signs of the two restaurants. Zuihualou was simple and elegant, while Baihualou was garishly decorated and had a large customer flow.
Qi Si Liao followed her gaze and looked around, "Are you confused?"
Hu Luanfei raised her eyes, stared at him for a few seconds, and asked, "If you want to go to dinner, which of these two restaurants do you want to go to?"
"See which one tastes better."
"Shouldn't men go to Baihualou? Look at the waiters there, they are all beautiful and graceful girls."
As he spoke, his warm fingers slid across her nose, "I have seen all kinds of women, why do you need to look for satisfaction there?"
"Oh, yes, how could I forget that you like the delicate and weak type like Wen Ruoxue. You naturally look down on the open-minded girls like those in Baihualou."
Perhaps sensing that she was jealous, Qi Si Liao suddenly became cheerful, "Each of us has our own flavor, but I think having you is enough for me."
Hu Luanfei was slightly stunned, and his ears turned red for no apparent reason.
The man stood in front of his restaurant for a long time, listening to their conversation. He vaguely sensed something, and when he told the waiter to move the baskets, he had already come up to the two of them, "Are you also interested in Baihualou?"
Hu Luanfei immediately responded: "I'm not interested."
The man invited them into the restaurant, and as soon as they entered, they were greeted by a shabby wind.
The restaurant's furnishings were excellent and its location was good, but it was deserted. There was not even a single person in sight, which was in stark contrast to the restaurant opposite.
At this moment, it was not right to stand in front of the counter, sit down, or just leave.
Especially when you see a man with an "I can't help it" look on his face, he looks quite pitiful.
"You have a hard time too. Is it because the cooking skills are not good or your way of welcoming guests is wrong? That's why this place is like the emperor's cold palace. It can't be colder."
"Young lady, you are joking." The man had an awkward fake smile on his face. He also sat down and asked the waiter to bring a pot of fresh Longjing tea. "To be honest, the chef of our Zuihualou was poached by Baihualou."
The reasons that may make a chef change jobs are either low salary and poor treatment, or a bad boss.
But the man doesn't look like a sneaky person, could it be that - "he wasn't paid enough?"
"This is wrong, but it makes sense."
Hu Luanfei didn't understand the meaning.
The man sighed, a little sadly, "The owner of Baihualou is the princess of Northwest City. When he came here, he made a big statement, saying that he would monopolize the business of all restaurants and become the boss of this prosperous area."
Hu Luanfei couldn't help but sigh: "It looks amazing, did you do it later?"
"One step away."
"why."
The man smiled bitterly: "Because I haven't fallen down yet."
"But it's almost time, isn't it?"
This sentence is powerful. For those who are struggling, it is undoubtedly like a thousand arrows piercing their hearts, a hundred thousand times critical hit.
The man pursed his lips and struggled with his thoughts for a moment. "Although it doesn't sound good, it's the truth."
Hu Luanfei glanced at the clerk fiddling with the vegetables, puzzled: "You've been suppressed like this, why are you still buying so many fruits and vegetables? Isn't it a waste if you can't sell them?"
The man almost cried because of what she said. He covered his face and sighed, "It's hard to say whether I'm lucky today or not, so I want to invite you to come and take charge of this restaurant."
Hu Luanfei's mind was not on this. After he said that, a great plan came to his mind, "Then why don't you sell the store?"
The man laughed. "Among all the restaurants, only ours is still lingering. Who is willing to take over? Besides, I am unwilling to be forced out like this. I will hold on even if I have little money in my pocket."
Hu Luanfei thought that he was like a deer forced to the edge of a cliff, with risks in front and a cliff behind, he was so isolated and helpless.
She lowered her eyes, bit her fingernails and thought for a moment. Qi Siliao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly whispered to her: "You can take it or cooperate. I believe you can defeat Baihua Tower."
Hu Luanfei was startled by his sudden action and subconsciously moved aside, "How do you know what I'm thinking?"
"You are only thinking about making money, so it's easy to guess."
His tone was casual, and his deep, clear eyes reflected her.
Hu Luanfei was extremely surprised when she saw herself in his eyes.
It turns out that this is what the old saying about husband and wife being of one mind means.
The man was watching and didn't understand.
Hu Luanfei put away his thoughts, moistened his throat, and told the idea in his mind, "Actually, I have always wanted to open a restaurant in Beiqiu. If you really can't hold on, I can take over."
"Are you crazy?!" The man looked her up and down. "You don't seem to be rich. If you take over and there's no business, aren't you looking for death?"
"I don't agree with you. Although Baihualou is the only dominant one, I think I have the ability to share the same power."
The man raised his eyebrows, and actually saw the shadow of Baihua Princess's boasting in her. Then he thought, if she really has the ability to compete with Baihua Tower, it would be a good thing to make such a capable friend.
Just as I was about to agree, someone else spoke first.
Hu Luanfei added: "If you don't want to play, I can join in. The condition is that I get 70% and you get 30%. How do you think?"
The man's eyes sparkled with a meaningful fire, "If you can restore Zuihualou to its former glory, you can give me 80% and I can give you 20%."
"Are you serious?" Hu Luanfei stood up and slammed the table in excitement.
The man said "hmm", "I, Qiu Xu, always keep my word."
