Xu Qing: "you can send a letter to these two people sometime. Please ask Zhu Yong to go to zuixianlou tomorrow evening. I want to meet him. As for Luo fan Make an appointment with him before you let me know
Li Zhu: "yes."
The next evening, after dinner at home, Li Changting entered the space with the dragonfly in his arms, while Xu Qing got on the carriage and went out of the door to the zuixianlou.
Shopkeeper Yun arranged an elegant room for Xu Qing and served some tea and signature dishes.
Half an hour later, Zhu Yong came over at the appointed time, and was invited into the elegant room.
An ordinary looking man, about twenty-seven or eight years old, came in and swept his eyes around the room before looking at Xu Qing. However, when he saw Xu Qing, his eyes narrowed and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Are you the boss of qingtingfang?" Zhu Yong went to the opposite side and sat down. His tone was a little casual. He stared at Xu Qing's face with his eyes. It was very impolite to look at him so frankly.
And Xu Qing did not have any openings under the premise, this person directly sat down in the opposite, tone even with a bit of contempt.
Xu Qing couldn't help frowning.
Zhu Yong asked, "what can I do for you?"
Xu Qing was still trying to recruit people, but he couldn't say a word when he looked at his opponent's posture.
Zhu Yong's eyes glanced around, looking at the decoration of the elegant room. When he saw the jade on the screen, there was a ray of money in his eyes.
Finally, he looked at the dishes on the table, picked up his chopsticks and ate a piece of tender chicken leg. As soon as he saw it, he ate several more pieces.
It's casual, or impolite, to look at and eat.
Zhu Yong did not forget to glance at Xu Qing as he ate: "why don't you talk?"
Xu Qing almost rolled his eyes and pressed down his dislike. He reluctantly asked, "your pastry is good. If I want to invite you to qingtingfang, what do you want?"
After listening to the music, Zhu Yong said, "Hey, I knew you were here to solicit me."
He wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "I don't have any other requirements. I'll double my salary. In addition, I'll live in an independent yard and get two servant girls to serve me."
After hearing this, Xu Qing still couldn't help rolling his eyes. However, without waiting for her to say anything, Zhu Yong went on: "I signed a long contract at the steamed cake shop. You have to help me pay the penalty. In the future, there will be a counter in qingtingfang to sell my cakes. Alas, after saying so much, can I tell you that these are really useful? As for your man, let him talk to me. "
Xu Qing tugged at the corner of his mouth: "you'd better stay in the steamed cake shop for so many requests. I can't afford your Bodhisattva. You can't take it easy."
Zhu Yong was stunned and sighed twice: "wait a minute, then don't leave a small courtyard. But at least give me a servant girl. I haven't married my daughter-in-law, and I don't have time to go out. Men, you know."
Xu Qing sneered. From Zhu Yong's words, he could tell that he despised women. Xu Qing worried that if he listened to it again, he would not help beating others. He simply said, "come on."
The man pushed the door in and said, "what can I do for you, madam?"
Xu Qing: "see off."
Man: "yes."
Zhu Yong looked at Xu Qing's cold face, a little flustered: "didn't you say you wanted to attract me?"
Xu Qing: "I don't want to."
Zhu Yong stood up and said, "shit, are you playing with me?"
As soon as the man heard it, he dragged Zhu Yong and threw it out. Then Zhu Yong was picked up by the man, went downstairs and threw it out of zuixianlou, just like a bag of garbage.
No matter how lawless Rao Shi Zhu Yong is, he also knows that he can't make trouble in zuixianlou. He can only support his hurt waist and leave in a low voice.
Li Zhu came in and pleaded, "it's me who let this kind of person pollute my wife's ears."
Xu Qing waved his hand: "it's OK, this kind of scum is too much. It's hard to avoid being unlucky and bumping into a few. I don't have to worry about one scum."
The next night, at the same time and place.
Luo fan is tall and big. The tight muscles on his arms can be seen from the rolled up sleeves. He is a bit black, aggressive and tough.
The man poured the tea and went out. Xu Qing made a gesture of please.
Luo fan sat down in front of Xu Qing. Without waiting for Xu Qing to speak, he said what he wanted to say first.
"I don't want to sell your cakes. As long as you can ask yupinzhai not to trouble me again, I just want to live in peace and don't want to get involved in your fight. If you can do it, I promise not to sell your cakes from now on!"
This sentence is a bit informative. Xu Qing ponders it for a while, and soon understands that it is yupinzhai who threatens Luo fan to make qingtingfang's cakes, grabs qingtingfang's business, and creates a little trouble for her.
Will yupinzhai only use such indecent means?
Xu Qing laughed: "our fight with yupinzhai? Maybe, in yupinzhai's eyes, qingtingfang may be aiming at it. I'm too lazy to explain this, but I can help you solve your problems. "Listen to it, Luo fan secretly relaxed.
Xu Qing then said, "I invite you to come. There's another more important thing. Your craftsmanship is very good. Do you want to join qingtingfang?"
Luo fan Leng: "what do you mean?"
He is a simple man. If Xu Qing doesn't make it clear, he doesn't know what this "joining" means.
Xu Qing: "I'd like to invite you to qingtingfang as a pastry chef. The internship period is one month. After you become a regular worker, your monthly salary will be three Liang silver. If you do well, your salary will increase. In addition, you can eat and live in a dormitory. You can't bring your family with you, but if you have a house, you can go home. "
After thinking about it, Luo fan refused: "it's really good to pay three liang of silver, but I've been working for others for more than ten years, and I don't want to continue my previous days. Now I want to be my own boss. Although it's hard, I'm more comfortable. Even if I don't buy your cakes in my shop, I'm confident that I can support my family by my own skills. "
After a pause, Luo Fan said, "thank you for your kindness anyway."
Xu Qing: "don't worry, there is a second choice. Since you don't want to come to qingtingfang, you can open another shop."
Luo fan changed his face: "I won't sell it!"
Xu Qing: "I don't mean to drive you away. Listen to me first."
Luo fan calmed his mind: "you say."
Xu Qing: "I want to open a small branch shop in Hezhou City, but there is no suitable person. If you want, I can provide financial and technical support. Qingting square is in the south of the city, and its branch shop is in the north of the city, which is convenient for customers who are too far away from Qingting square to buy our cakes. "
Luo fan thought about it, then scratched his head, and finally said: "wait, I don't understand. What are you talking about?"
Xu Qing
