Monster, come to my bowl

Time flies by.

Three days later, Cai Ji embarked on his journey into the city.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Xue were somewhat reluctant about his going to the city to open a restaurant, they still adopted an attitude that was both supportive and opposed.

The two elders supported Cai Ji entering the city!

In their view, the future son-in-law wanted to move to the city just to be with their daughter.

Right now the two are in the passionate love phase, so living apart is really not a big deal!

We can't let Xue Yi run home for no reason, right?

After all, she is the second-in-command of Qinghe City, responsible for the safety of tens of thousands of residents.

What the two elders opposed was Cai Ji opening a restaurant!

The master and the mistress believed that as the future eldest son-in-law of the Xue family, he had to open a restaurant!

A small restaurant?

How embarrassing!

It must be at least a three-story shop facing the street, with an inner courtyard covering an area of ​​more than five acres, and all kinds of guest rooms, and the shopkeeper and cook must be professionals.

Cai Ji just needs to be the boss!

The boss is an ordinary person, but that doesn't affect his ability to "live in seclusion in the city"!

Does not affect!

No impact at all!

……

After everything is packed, let’s get going.

A group of dozens of people marched towards Qinghe City in a mighty manner.

Why are there so many people?

In order to settle the matter as quickly as possible, Mr. and Mrs. Xue directly dispatched the Xue Mansion's elite forces to form a professional team to assist Cai Ji.

Some people are responsible for buying houses and land, some are responsible for contacting masons and carpenters, and some are responsible for recruiting chefs and waiters...

In a word, Cai Ji doesn’t have to do anything, just wait to become the boss!

All he had to pay was three thousand taels of silver, and the rest would be borne by the Xue family.

As for the restaurant’s shares!

He accounts for half and Xue Yi accounts for half!

Because of their large numbers and the presence of a team of demon-suppressing guards, no demons dared to harass them along the way.

Everyone set out in the morning and arrived at Qinghe City after noon.

As a proper city, Qinghe City does not cover a large area.

Only an area of ​​two miles in radius was fenced off by the Qing River.

The city wall is three meters high, with watchtowers everywhere inside and outside.

Most of the tens of thousands of residents are crowded in the city, and a small number live in the suburbs.

Some people may say that Tiantongyuan is only two miles in radius and has 300,000 people crammed in it, so what are your tens of thousands of people?

That's true, but there are no high-rise apartment buildings in this world!

The tallest building was only three or four stories high, and ordinary people lived in bungalows, resulting in the city being packed with houses and the streets and alleys being overcrowded.

This scene may appear prosperous and lively on the surface, but in reality it is just the opposite.

It’s not that humans don’t want to build bigger cities, but they don’t dare!

As the city grows in size, the number of guards needed will increase exponentially!

The number of demon-suppressing guards is already stretched to the limit, so where are the men to guard an empty big city?

Therefore, the wisest choice is to build the city smaller, build the city walls higher, and reduce the number of points that need to be defended.

……

The group entered the city and found an inn to stay.

When the innkeeper saw that big business was coming, he was overjoyed at first.

But after a while, I was no longer happy.

The shopkeeper soon learned from the guests that these people came to Qinghe City to open a restaurant!

Moreover, we also want to open a luxurious restaurant!

Although there are differences between restaurants and inns, there is some degree of competition between them.

Besides, there aren't many people in this world who like to go out, and the inn business isn't that good. Not to mention that Qinghe City is just a small city, so how could someone come to steal the business?

This is just because you have nothing better to do!

"Sir, why do you open a big restaurant in Qinghe City instead of a big city?"

"That's right! We are a small place with only a few people. Let alone a luxurious restaurant, even an ordinary small restaurant can't make any money!"

"It's okay if I don't make any money, but I'm afraid of losing everything!"

"Your head of the family is confused! Listen to my advice, there is really no way to run a luxury restaurant in Qinghe City. No matter how much money you invest, it will all be wasted."

When they found out that a competitor had arrived, the shopkeeper was unhappy, and the waiter, cook, and groom of the inn were also unhappy. From time to time, they looked for opportunities to complain about the uninvited guest, and their attitude towards guests took a sharp turn for the worse.

When Cai Ji discovered this situation, he was afraid that the people in the inn would secretly spit in the food, so he decisively called Xue Laoba, who was in charge of recruiting people, to his side and whispered a few instructions to him.

After hearing the instructions, Xue Laoba immediately held back his laughter and went to find the innkeeper.

The shopkeeper's name is Liu Xi. He is not the owner of the inn, but also a worker.

"Boss, come on, let's chat!" Lao Ba directly pulled Liu Xi to the backyard and said bluntly: "Our restaurant is recruiting people in advance, are you interested?"

"Ah?" Liu Xi was full of complaints and didn't react for a moment.

"Our restaurant is recruiting in advance. We are not only short of cooks and waiters, but also a shopkeeper!" Lao Ba repeated.

"You mean... me?" Liu Xi finally reacted and pointed at his nose in disbelief: "You want me to be the shopkeeper of the restaurant?"

"That's right!" Old Eight nodded and said seriously, "But let me be frank! The restaurant we are going to open is quite large, so there will definitely be more than one manager. I can't be sure whether you will be the second, third, or fourth manager."

"Then...how about the monthly salary?" Liu Xi asked, suppressing his excitement.

"It must be several times higher than your current level!" Lao Ba answered calmly.

How many times?!

When Liu Xi heard this, he almost laughed his mouth off.

As long as the money is in place, it doesn’t matter what position he holds as shopkeeper!

The inn's business is not very popular. The money earned throughout the year is just enough to cover normal expenses, and there is no way to think about dividends.

It's really lucky to be able to become the manager of a luxury restaurant!

Liu Xi knew that this was a golden opportunity, so he nodded and said, "I do, I do!"

"Okay! Then it's settled! When the restaurant is completed, I'll ask you to sign and seal it!" Old Eight smiled and continued to instruct: "By the way, ask the people below too. If they are willing to go with us, we will not treat them unfairly."

"Okay, okay, I'll bring the most capable ones with me!" Liu Xi promised hastily, and then lowered his voice and said, "By the way, can you tell me who the owner of our restaurant is?"

Anyone who has been a shopkeeper knows how to speak.

Before I even changed jobs, I became one of our own.

"Monster Suppression Guard, Captain Xue Bai!" Lao Ba answered casually, and then reminded: "It's good that you know about this matter, but don't leak it out for the time being, so as to avoid being gossiped about."

Xue Baichang?

The second in command of Qinghe City!

Should I work for her in the future?

Wouldn’t that mean you’ve found a great backer!

Liu Xi was even more surprised and nodded immediately, "Understood! I will go and inform the servants now and ask them to correct their attitude and serve you like family members!"

"Go! We are family from now on." Lao Ba replied with a smile.

In less than a moment, the saliva crisis was perfectly resolved.

Xue Laoba watched Liu Xi running towards the lobby with brisk steps, and his admiration for Cai Ji was like a river bursting its banks.

My brother-in-law is really good at this!

With just a few words, the attitude of everyone in the inn towards him and others changed 180 degrees.

So smart!

This head is not bald in vain!
