Chapter 195

195 He Houfa

If they met too early, she wouldn’t be her anymore, but the Host.

Therefore, fate was important.

It just so happened that at that moment, they met.

!!

It wasn’t too soon or too late.

Luo Cheng did not know the reason, but after hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, he felt that she was right.

“Yes, we met at the right time!”

Since they were going to the Jin family’s home tomorrow, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng went to do other things today.

Luo Cheng called the servants over and introduced them to Li Xiaoran. Then, he let Li Xiaoran slowly familiarize herself with them.

It was not that he did not want to accompany Li Xiaoran, but he had his own things to do.

For example, he had to control the operations of the wine shop from time to time.

Li Xiaoran looked at the guards and women in front of her and asked them what they were doing now.

There were a total of ten people in the house.

Four of them were guards, responsible for keeping the house safe. At night, two people would take turns on duty, one in the first half of the night and the other in the second.

The other two guards were in charge of guarding the house during the day.

There were four servants, mainly responsible for cleaning the house.

The four of them would do everything in and outside the house.

The other two worked in the kitchen.

There was a cook and a handyman.

In addition, there was a shopkeeper, two workers, and another chef living in the house.

These four people were in charge of the wine shop in front, but they usually ate and lived in the house.

He Houfa, the owner of the wine shop, was also the chief steward of the house.

Be it the matters in the house or the wine shop, when Luo Cheng was not around, Manager He was in charge.

At this moment, Li Xiaoran already knew about the structure of this house very clearly.

Li Xiaoran did not say anything and only said some encouraging words. Then, she let them go about their own business.

His goal today was to get to know these people.

As for the future, he would observe for a while first!

When Luo Cheng arrived at the wine shop in front, he shook his head at He Houfa and walked straight to a private room.

He Houfa quickly arranged everything outside and walked into the private room.

“Greetings, Young Master!” He Houfa bowed as soon as he entered.

“Uncle He, I told you, you don’t have to be so polite when there are no outsiders!” Luo Cheng said with a smile when he saw He Houfa.

“Young Master, etiquette must be upheld! If I don’t take the lead to abide by it, the others will also be rude to you!” He Houfa insisted.

“Yes, yes, yes. Uncle He, everything you say makes sense!” Luo Cheng no longer looked as mature as usual. He finally had the cheerfulness of a young man.

“How’s business these days? Did anything major happen?” Luo Cheng asked in a diplomatic tone.

“Business is getting better and better! Previously, some people imitated our wine shop, but the wine was not as good as ours, and even the dishes that went with the wine were not as good as ours. Naturally, many customers are still willing to come to our shop! It’s just that there are too many customers, and the shop can’t accommodate so many people!” He Houfa roughly explained the situation of the wine shop.

“I already have a plan! Isn’t the two-story shop beside the wine shop for sale? Uncle He, find someone to negotiate and buy this two-story shop. Remember, you can’t go in our wine shop’s name. Use a stranger!” Luo Cheng instructed.

He Houfa was also a veteran in the business world, so he naturally understood what Luo Cheng meant.

“Young Master, don’t worry. I know what to do!”

“Is there anything else?” Luo Cheng asked again.

He Houfa wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Uncle He, is there anything we can’t say to each other?”

“This has nothing to do with the wine shop. Actually, Brother Han came to find me!” He Houfa thought for a moment and said.

At the mention of Han Zhenming, Luo Cheng’s smile faded.

“I don’t know what happened between you and Brother Han, so I don’t know if I should counsel you!” He Houfa said.

When Luo Cheng heard He Houfa’s words, he pondered for a moment and said this.

“Uncle He, just tell him not to push his luck!”

When He Houfa heard Luo Cheng’s words, he already knew what to do.

It seemed that Han Zhenming must have done something to anger the young master. That was why the young master kept a distance from Han Zhenming.

“Alright, don’t worry, Young Master. I know what to do!”

With that, Luo Cheng thought of something.

“Uncle He, are you busy now? If you’re not, I’ll take you to see someone!”

“It’s fine. With Xiaofei and Ah-Hu in the shop, we can deal with it!” He Houfa said.

Luo Cheng stood up and brought He Houfa to the backyard.

Seeing that the old woman in the courtyard was sweeping the floor, Luo Cheng asked.

“What is my wife doing?”

“Young Master, Madam is in the study!” The servant had seen Li Xiaoran when she was cleaning the courtyard, so she replied.

“Okay!” Luo Cheng nodded and led He Houfa to the study.

After He Houfa heard this conversation, he already had a preliminary understanding of how important his young master’s wife was to him.

One had to know that the young master’s study was not somewhere ordinary people could enter.

The fact that Madam could enter meant that the young master valued her.

It seemed that he had to pay more attention. He could not underestimate Madam just because of her background.

Soon, they were in the study.

As soon as he stepped in, Luo Cheng noticed that Li Xiaoran had put down her pen and seemed to have just finished writing something.

“What are you doing?” Luo Cheng asked directly.

Li Xiaoran turned around when she heard Luo Cheng’s voice.

“I just thought of a good business idea and was hesitating about whether to do it. I couldn’t make up my mind at the moment, so I listed the pros and cons of doing it, as well as what I have now and what I still lack!”

“Oh, I wonder what kind of good business you’re thinking of?” Luo Cheng asked with interest.

When He Houfa heard that they were doing business, his attention was also attracted.

“Husband, what do you think of the boiled fish I made previously?”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he recalled the taste of boiled fish.

“It tastes very good! Are you planning to sell poached fish? However, no matter how delicious this poached fish is, it’s only a dish. We don’t run a restaurant, so we can’t rely on this to earn money. Could it be that you want to sell recipes?”
