I have a mall space system, raise the baby first and then fight

Shen Lianxin nodded, "Everyone wait for my news!!"

Everyone now respects Shen Lianxin very much. In the hearts of the villagers, Shen is capable and righteous, and has saved them many times. Her status is no worse than that of the village head.

Taking Gu Chengzhen with her, Shen Lianxin decided to go back to Yuncheng for a visit.

With Yunshan Village in such a mess, I wonder how her Shen’s BBQ is doing.

Since she didn’t receive the letter from Uncle Zhang, there shouldn’t be any big problem, otherwise Uncle Zhang would have written to inform her.

The next day, Shen Lianxin took Gu Chengzhen on Huang Bo's ox cart and after an hour's ride, they finally arrived in Yuncheng.

It was officially 9 o'clock and the barbecue restaurant should not be open yet, but from a distance, there were so many people surrounding Shen's BBQ.

Shen Lianxin's heart moved, thinking something was wrong, and she quickened her pace.

When I got closer, I found a group of people dressed as servants carrying a man on a shelf. The man was wearing a green robe and looked quite wealthy.

"Ouch, ouch!" The man's face was pale, his eyes were dark, and he kept crying while holding his stomach.

"I got sick from eating at Shen's BBQ. I went in fine yesterday, but I got this way when I got home last night. I went to see several doctors and they all said it was poisoning. You have to give me an explanation."

Zhang Bo resisted the pressure and said stubbornly, "Nonsense, my Shen's BBQ business is booming, and no one has ever had any problems eating at my restaurant. Our meat is all fresh beef and mutton bought that morning, so how could it be a problem with the food at Shen's BBQ?"

"You're still trying to cheat. My young master went home after eating Shen's barbecue. He didn't go anywhere. Could it be that he got poisoned by the food he ate at home?"

Bai Zhi stepped forward and said, "That's hard to say. Who knows what you ate when you got home?"

"You, you, you are so unreasonable."

"How am I being unreasonable? How many people are there in your group for the barbecue?"

The servant thought for a moment and said, "Three people. There is also the young master of the Qian family and the young master of the Li family."

"There were three of them, eating our Shen's barbecue together. How come the other two were fine? Was it only your young master who was poisoned?"

When the people around heard this, they nodded in agreement, "That's right! If someone got sick from eating Shen's barbecue, then how come the other two people who were with him were fine?"

"That's right. I think this is an attempt to blackmail someone."

"Of course, Shen's BBQ business is booming, so I'm afraid we might have offended someone!"

The man on the shelf groaned non-stop. When he heard this, his pale face became even uglier. “Go away. I told you it’s none of their business. Why do you have to come here and embarrass yourself?”

"But how could we get poisoned when we get home? If it's not a problem with what we ate here, then where else could it be?"

Shen Lianxin pushed through the crowd and came forward, "May I ask what did you eat when you got home?"

Seeing Shen Lianxin, Zhang Bo and Bai Zhi seemed to have found their backbone.

People who come here often also know Shen Lianxin and know that she is the owner of Shen’s BBQ.

The servant recalled, "Our young master only ate some fresh bamboo shoots shipped from the south. These are rare things, and it took a lot of effort to get them. There must be no problem with the bamboo shoots."

Shen Lianxin nodded, "That's right."

"How is it right?"

"Mutton plus bamboo shoots will produce toxins. This is the principle of food incompatibility. There are many more. You can't eat persimmons when drinking white wine, and you can't eat amaranth when eating turtle. There is nothing wrong with both foods, but if you eat them together, a reaction will occur and poisoning will occur."

When everyone heard this, they thought it was true.

"It is so."

The man lying on the shelf shouted with all his strength, "Hurry up and leave. I can't say it. You insist that you can't swallow this and must seek justice. Now I have become a joke. How can I come to eat barbecue in the future?"

Several servants hurriedly bowed in the direction of Shen Lianxin and Zhang Bo, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, sorry."

Then he lifted the man up and walked away.

The onlookers burst into laughter.

Bai Zhi opened her clear voice and said, "Did you see that? It's not us who got sick from eating at Shen's BBQ. We order the freshest meat from the market early in the morning. Come and eat without worry!"

Baizhi is very popular in the store and everyone comes to support her.

"Miss Baizhi asked us to come, so we must come to eat! Haha!!"

"Don't worry, Miss Baizhi, we all know that Shen's BBQ has good meat and great taste!!"

Bai Zhi rolled her eyes at them, but they laughed even more happily.

Shen Lianxin was speechless and led Gu Chengzhen inside.

Zhang Bo and Bai Zhi followed in.

"Open the door earlier!!!"

"that is!!!"

Bai Zhi stretched out her arm to block him, "Shen's BBQ opens at noon. Is this the first time you know this? Go away. You guys should go home and have some porridge first after eating barbecue so early in the morning."

The crowd was not angry, they just dispersed with laughter.

Back in the backyard of the shop, Gu Chengzhen went to play with Yan'er.

In the yard, Yunniang and her hired servants were stringing skewers together. When they saw Shen Lianxin, they bowed to greet her.

Bai Zhi made a pot of tea for Shen Lianxin, "Madam, you have had a hard journey, have some tea."

This little girl Baizhi is becoming more and more clever. She has a lively personality and is smart in what she says and does. Moreover, after being raised for these days, she has gained weight and has become much whiter and prettier. The more Shen Lianxin looks at her, the more she likes her.

"How's it going lately? There's a severe drought around here, how's the situation in Cloud City?"

Shen Lianxin motioned Zhang Bo to sit down and talk. Zhang Bo also took a sip of tea. "There was a severe drought a few days ago. Yuncheng was short of water. The new county magistrate reported it to the prefect, and the prefect controlled the grain price. He also went around looking for water, organized a construction team, and divided the land to dig dozens of wells before he got water. This solved Yuncheng's urgent need."

"Our business is fine, and the impact is not big. Food prices have increased, and many of our dishes have increased in price. Please take a look at the new menu."

Shen Lianxin took a look and found that the price was indeed higher than the original pricing. There was nothing they could do about it. After all, when doing business, the price of raw materials has increased. If they didn't increase the price, they would be losing money.

Shen Lianxin nodded, "You decide these."

Uncle Zhang reported to Shen Lianxin about the income and expenditure of the past month, which was better than Shen Lianxin had expected. After all, these things were not something that poor families could eat often.

The customer base targeted by Shen's BBQ all has some purchasing power, so even if food prices rise, it will not have much impact on her store's business.

Moreover, many refugees have recently poured into Yuncheng. It is said that they are fleeing famine from the border, and some are fleeing due to severe drought.

Many of the surrounding towns closed their gates or strictly checked passers-by to prevent refugees from entering the city.

Only Yuncheng is still accepting refugees, but it is also saturated, and the city gates have recently begun to be strictly guarded.

If a large number of refugees enter the city and are not properly accommodated, cholera may occur.

After counting the accounts, Shen Lianxin earned 2000 taels, which she put into the space, and left the rest in the store as capital turnover.

Shen Lianxin was very satisfied with the huge amount of money she earned in just over a month, and she also raised the wages of her employees.

Zhang Bo and the maids were given an extra ounce of silver a month. Everyone was happy and worked harder.

Shen Lianxin replenished the warehouse with some goods, including beer and instant noodles, things that did not exist in this world.
