Chapter 178

Near noon, several merchant ships and freighters coming down from a wharf on the upstream stopped at the edge of the wharf on time. With the continuous sound of the drums, they began to load and unload.

In fact, these businessmen made an appointment with the Lingnan prefects to buy this auspicious time and pick up the goods at this time. It means that the business is booming and the wealth is abundant.

It's almost time for Jiang Mingzhao to lead the magistrate and others to their Tongji restaurant.

This makes song Xintong and others who originally planned to leave from the back door stunned.

Lu Yunkai had to stop. "I'll go ahead and have a look. I'll be back in a quarter of an hour."

"Isn't it too late for your birthday?" Song Xintong some unwilling to pull the landing cloud to open, where is the man's social intercourse 15 minutes can solve? Two hours is not enough.

The shopkeeper ran into the yard in a hurry. "Master, Mr. Jiang told the magistrate that you and your wife owned the restaurant. The magistrate called to see you."

Song Xintong's way of thinking is just like this, but he knows he can't stop him. "Go ahead, I'll take Dabao and they'll go back to the village first."

"Well, I'll be back soon." Lu Yunkai looked at his wife reluctantly.

"Well, you should come back early. When you come back, my mother and I will spend your birthday with you." Song Xintong looked at him, "come back early."

"Good." Lu Yunkai looked at Song Xintong so affectionately looking at her, eager to come forward to embrace her, but next to a few people standing in the way, "let Daya Haosheng take care of you."

"Don't worry, uncle. You don't have to say that I will take good care of the girl." Big Ya big voice of reply way.

"..." Lu Yunkai felt pain in his brain.

After seeing off Xintong, Lu Yunkai went to the area upstairs and saluted the magistrate, "I've seen several adults."

"No gift." The magistrate looked at the scar on Lu Yunkai's cheek that could not be removed. His face was full of pity. "I haven't seen him for three years. Yunkai is still so clear. Come and sit with him."

"Students don't dare."

"Why don't you dare? Don't be polite when you go out. Come and sit with me."

"Thank you, my Lord." Lu Yunkai sat beside Jiang Mingzhao.

The magistrate asked, "Jiang San said you owned this restaurant?"

The magistrate is Jiang Mingzhao's uncle and has a good relationship with him.

Lu Yunkai nodded, "actually, it's my wife. She's good at cooking, so she came up with a lot of fresh food. There are a lot of delicious food in the store, and the students ordered people to send some."

"Well, we're wondering how to order."

Lu Yunkai and the shopkeeper who was waiting on his side gave orders, and then he said to the magistrate, "please wait for a moment, sir. I will send them up soon."

"Good."

Jiang Mingzhao pointed to Xu Mingan, who was sitting opposite him, and then whispered to Lu Yun, "you are the owner of the auspicious restaurant. Your sister-in-law was cooperating with him before."

Lu Yunkai took a look at Xu Mingan and then withdrew his eyes, "I know."

A moment later, the shopkeeper asked the guys to send up the bittern first, and also gave everyone gloves made of oil paper to prevent your hands from getting dirty.

Jiang Mingzhao chewed on the duck rack dipped with the secret seasoning, and his mouth kept praising, "it's extremely spicy, it's spicy, it's delicious!"

"It's a long time to keep your lips and teeth fragrant. Students want to have another one." Said the clerk.

"Not much indeed." The magistrate was a moderate man, but he also ate two of them. "Yunkai's wife is very capable, and the food she makes is really good."

Lu Yunkai nodded to accept the praise, and put cold dishes such as mushroom tripe, lotus root slices and bean skin in front of the magistrate. "These dishes are all meals. My wife thinks that cooking is to let people have an appetite, and to be able to eat fully is a virtue."

"It makes sense, it makes sense."

After that, dried pork ribs, grilled fish, fried lobster and snails are also on the table.

"Eh, isn't this shrimp the kind of lucky restaurant?" The master looked at Xu Ming'an and asked, "right?"

"Yes." Xu Mingan nodded.

The magistrate also asked, "what's the matter?"

Xu Mingan: "my Lord, in fact, the shrimp and snails in the restaurant are also attributed to Mrs. Lu. I bought the shrimp from Mrs. Lu."

"There is such a source."

Jiang Mingzhao took out the wide powder under the grilled fish and gave it to the magistrate, "my Lord, this vermicelli tastes good. Have a taste."

"Good." The magistrate had eaten it before and thought it was very good, but his nephew gave it to him in front of the crowd. I think he had another plan. He nodded: "it tastes smooth and elastic. Good, good, good!"

For three consecutive good days, the merchants sitting upstairs all looked at the wide powder under the grilled fish, and they all came out with bright eyes.

Lu Yunkai always looked at Jiang Mingzhao's tricks and sighed that his wife had suffered a loss again. She sold 40 Wen a Jin and 100 Wen a Jin.

Song Xintong went back to Taohua village as a carriage. The road back to Taohua village had been leveled, and it would not be more than a quarter of an hour.

At the entrance of the village, song Xintong got out of the carriage and took a look at the workshop. There were seven women washing sweet potatoes by the river.

"Grandma Qiu, why haven't you come home for dinner?"

"It's still early. Today we sent another 2000 Jin of sweet potatoes. We have to wash them quickly, chop them and dry them." Mother Qiu beat her waist.

"Mother in law is tired? Take a break. Don't keep working. It's not good for you to bend down all the time. " Song Xintong pointed to the reclining chair and waist twisting iron plate in the dam, "those are all prepared for you, more activities, uncomfortable waist."

"I see. Xintong, please go back for dinner. We'll have dinner after a while."

"Good." Song Xintong came into the yard and saw he Er Shu, who was busy beside the shredder. "Uncle, you come in turn. You are tired."

"No, we are very relaxed with mules."

"Yes, we eat meat here every day. We have gained a few kilos. Ha ha ha."

"No, it's much better than working outside before."

Song Xintong smiles and walks in again. Now there are the most people with face loss here. About ten people work back and forth. "What's the matter? How much has happened today? "

"It's a fine day now. It's estimated that it will cost six or seven hundred jin today." The leader is Wang Shi. She leads the workers to do the work. Now she can just stare at them, and she doesn't have to do it herself.

"That's good." Song Xintong nodded, turned to the accounting room, Xie Yi several people are accounting in the accounting room, because it is still a novice, so there are a lot of Yang shujiao, "girl came."

"How are you doing?"

"That's about it." "In another ten days, we can let go," Yang reported

"Well." Song Xintong plans to take He Xi to Tongji restaurant to be an accountant, which can be regarded as mutual supervision with the shopkeeper.

"Uncle Yang, on weekdays, you remember to talk to those workers. You should pay attention to rest and take turns to have a rest. Don't get tired and hurt yourself." Song Xintong turned to see Xie Yi and He Xi, "you also remember to talk with your family, tired."

Xie Yi felt embarrassed and scratched her head. "Ah Nai just thinks that she can earn 30 Wen a day. It's nothing to wash more."

"If you hurt your body, it's easy to get sick when you get old."

"We understand. I'll talk to ah Nai."
