Reborn Farmhouse Restaurant [Transmigration Book]

When Tao Xiude went to look for Du Qingchen, the two of them were cooking vermicelli in the house. Mother Su brought a lot of dried vermicelli. County, he can also relax and get some hot and sour noodles when he has time.

"Are you ready?" Su Junxia held the bun and looked at the red soup in Du Qingchen's pot. The oily and red layer of oil on it was Du Qingchen's homemade chili oil, which made him very appetizing.

"That's it right away, find two bowls." Du Qingchen didn't even lift his head.

"Three." Tao Xiude answered, squatting by the stove, looking at Du Qingchen and smiling.

Du Qingchen looked up and saw the person coming, "Mr. Tao, this...is not delicious." The most important thing is that there is so little, it is not enough to eat, he only made it for two people.

"It's okay, if it's not tasty, I'll eat more for you." Tao Xiude said with a smile, we've known each other for so long, who doesn't know who!If it's not tasty, why would Su Junxia just wait for the food in the pot without taking a bite?

Du Qingchen was speechless for a while, and could only nod, "Okay, it's yours, then you can eat more." Du Qingchen looked at Su Junxia, ​​then at Tao Xiude, there were two young men who looked like rice bowls , This pot of hot and sour noodles, he probably won't be able to eat much.

Du Qingchen divided three bowls out and brought them to the table. Tao Xiude liked spicy food. In fact, his taste was quite strong. This hot and sour powder perfectly suited his taste. Tao Xiude didn't care about the heat. Blowing on some vermicelli, I took a bite, "Well, hot and sour and refreshing, the noodles inside are also chewy, delicious! But this taste doesn't taste like noodles! Brother Du, what is this? "

"Vermicelli, I plan to sell them in the future!"

"That's a good relationship. We must cooperate more in the future, right, Boss Su?"

"That's for sure, Boss Du will never abandon me when it comes to making money." Su Junxia took a sip of the hot and sour soup, took a bite of the corn bread and said vaguely.

Tao Xiude glanced at the cornbread in Su Junxia's hand, and suddenly felt that he should also have one. After all, the hot and sour powder was indeed a bit strong, so Tao Xiude reached out and took a copy from the plate on the table. It should belong to Du Qingchen's staple food.

Du Qingchen turned his head and stared at Tao Xiude, unable to speak for a long time, not only took away his hot and sour noodles, but also ate his staple food!

Du Qingchen hesitated and asked, "Young Master Tao, have you eaten yet?"

"No, I just came out from Lord Shao." Tao Xiude said vaguely, um, fragrant!This steamed bun with hot and sour soup tastes good.

"Then how can I starve you! Come on! Bring Mr. Tao's food to my room. Mr. Tao ate here today!" Ask someone to bring Tao Xiude's meal directly, after all, his meal was robbed, there is no reason why he can't get it back.

Tao Xiude was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, and quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, so he didn't spit out, "Okay! My food is yours today, look at you for being stingy."

"It's not stingy. If I have a lot of money and have no worries about food and clothing at the moment, don't you just grab me a bowl of noodles and a steamed bun. I won't blink even if I have delicacies from mountains and seas. Isn't that all I want to eat? One article Money kills a hero, even if he doesn’t eat a meal, he’ll be so hungry!”

Soon, the servant brought Tao Xiude's food in. Du Qingchen took a big look, but he was not much better than them, thinking that there would be some big fish and big meat!Du Qingchen sighed in disappointment, it turned out that it was just an extra bowl of millet porridge than them.

"What's the matter? Disappointed?" Tao Xiude teased, seeing Du Qingchen's disappointed eyes really made people want to laugh.

"I feel sorry for you son! You are so precious, I never imagined that he would eat cornbread like us." Du Qingchen picked up a cornbread and replied.

"Right now, there is a shortage of food. Master Shao is eating the same food at the moment. What are you thinking? Could it be that there are people outside who are hungry all the time, and we are still eating fish and meat in the county government?"

Du Qingchen was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "I was wrong." Even though Shao Qing is really not a good person, but he is not an extravagant and lustful person, he still has some ability and responsibility.

"Speaking of which, Brother Du, are you willing to stay in this original county temporarily and help me and Lord Shao?"

"Didn't it all be agreed before?" Tao Xiude asked him before leaving, he wanted him to stay in the original county to help, he agreed, and even negotiated the conditions.

Tao Xiude said embarrassingly: "Isn't this something that happened in Pingxing County? Who doesn't know about your bad temper! You must be so angry in your heart, how can you help us work in a down-to-earth manner? Let's talk about it." ! Let's talk about the conditions, how can I make you happy?"

"What about me? I don't like it either..." Su Junxia couldn't help but interject when he heard that, he is willing to do things that are beneficial!

"It's none of your business, you are my subordinate, so why are you planning to push back when I ask you to do something?" Tao Xiude raised his eyebrows.

Su Junxia tacitly counseled, as a subordinate, he has no human rights!Let's eat honestly!Don't wait for Tao Xiude to ask him after he finished eating. As a subordinate, he can't refuse, but he is not full yet!Su Junxia started to eat sullenly.

Du Qingchen then said: "I can't say I'm asking for any conditions! I just hope that Mr. Shao can fill in the hole he dug for me after I help him. Isn't this just right?"

"Yes, what you said is reasonable, how do you think this hole should be filled?" Tao Xiude asked sincerely.

Du Qingchen put down his chopsticks, "First of all, County Magistrate Feng didn't quite support Su Junxia and I's storage of food. He was afraid that we would get into trouble, but we insisted on doing this because we were thinking of the folks. County Magistrate Feng In the end, we also acquiesced. But we only wanted to do it quietly, but who would have thought that, under Mr. Feng's order, every household would hand over the life-saving food they got in their hands! Mr. Tao, what do you say? Is this reasonable?!"

"Naturally, it's unreasonable. At this time, even Pingxing County must regard food as their life. How can we say that we want it!" Tao Xiude continued to complain.

"That is, after he asked me to go back to my hometown with Su Junxia, ​​how should I face my fellow villagers? How should I face County Magistrate Feng?! Could it be that we have done bad things with good intentions, causing the folks to spend money and not get any money?" When I got the food, I only received an IOU that I don’t know when it will be cashed?! Could it be that we are sorry for you, County Magistrate Feng, and have caused you trouble for no reason, so that you have to go door to door to collect food in a low voice?! Dare Ask, Master Shao, have you considered the situation that Su Junxia and I will return to our hometown in the future?!"

Tao Xiude nodded and said: "It's true that he didn't think about it. I guess he didn't think about it that much. A big man, how can he know the troubles of a small man."

Du Qingchen looked resentful, "Young Master Tao, tell me, is it a condition to solve these troubles?"

"Of course it doesn't count. This is what it should be. Otherwise, I'll write a letter to my father and ask him to give Magistrate Feng an excellent evaluation of his political performance this year. The vice plaque, as for the IOU, it's an imperial envoy's order to adjust the food supply, so it's naturally considered an official business, but official money is sent from the government office to fill this hole, and it will definitely be paid back." Tao Xiude said.

For Tao Taishou, the evaluation of political performance is nothing but a trivial matter; a family has a pair of characters, and even a plaque does not need to be spent personally, it is also a trivial matter; as for using the government treasury to repay the debt, it is a matter of one sentence, it is very simple!

Du Qingchen also recognized the chicken thief in Tao Xiude's words, but he didn't ask for much. At least in this way, after he returned to his hometown, he would not be complained by the villagers and the county magistrate Feng, and he would be left behind. Plaques, too.Du Qingchen nodded, "With your words, I feel much more at ease."

"Is there anything else you want?" Tao Xiude asked.

Du Qingchen saw that Tao Xiude was focused on coaxing him today, so that he could continue to work hard, so he said: "But ordinary people, it is my honor to be able to work for the imperial envoy, how dare you ask for anything else? I just hope that this drought will end as soon as possible, that the neighbors can live in peace and that the family is safe, that is all I wish for.”

"Really gone?"

"It's gone." Du Qingchen is not stupid. He said so much just now. In fact, it was his conditions, which were given by Tao Xiude. It should have been done by Tao Xiude, not his request. In this way, he got what he wanted and kept the favor.

In this way, those who should owe him favors will have to continue to owe them. If he needs anything in the future, wouldn't he be able to get three points of help by relying on his face today if he finds Tao Xiude or Shao Qing?

No, you want more!

Others always bully him and humiliate him, he always has to fight and hold on to more things in order to protect himself and live a safe and worry-free life.

Tao Xiude breathed a sigh of relief, and after eating, he took Du Qingchen to see Shao Qing. Du Qingchen was different from Su Junxia. Su Junxia could only be used as a martial artist, so Tao Xiude let him continue to look after the grain. At this time, the grain Nature is the most important thing, which is also a great trust.As for Du Qingchen, Shao Qing might have to arrange what to do with him.

Outside the study, Tao Xiude said: "You wait for me outside the yard, I will tell you to come in again."

"Understood." Du Qingchen nodded.

Tao Xiude straightened his clothes and went into the study. Shao Qing put down the official documents and said, "What's the matter?"

"He agreed."

"What request?" Shao Qing asked casually.

"There is no requirement." Tao Xiude can easily do those plaque evaluations, without Shao Qing needing to worry.Shao Qing is the brother of the Fifth Prince's Concubine, and his official position is higher than Tao Xiude's. In front of him, Tao Xiude can only regard himself as a subordinate. It is naturally his duty to solve small matters for the superior.

"No?" Shao Qing was taken aback, closed the official document and sat upright, "Didn't you tell him that I asked him to mention it?"

"Although he didn't say it, but with his intelligence, he actually knows it well."

"Even so, he has nothing else to ask for?"

"Yes." Tao Xiude nodded.

"Huh!" Shao Qing laughed, "He is indeed a smart man, if you don't want it, you will want it the most."

Tao Xiude was stunned for a moment, but he didn't react for a while, but seeing Shao Qing seemed to understand, Tao Xiude also quickly thought about it, what does it mean to want more?Tao Xiude himself is also a smart person, he just didn't think much about it before, but he really thought about it in this direction, and Shao Qing said it so clearly, Tao Xiude suddenly realized, "Isn't this favor just owed!"

From now on, if Du Qingchen asks for anything, just because he is doing his best to help now, can Shao Qing and him still refuse to let him in, and can't talk about affection at all?

What a thief!Tao Xiude looked complicated.

"Call him in, if you want me to owe him a favor, you have to do something, see if he can afford it!" Shao Qing said.

"Yes." Tao Xiude bowed his hands and stepped back.

Soon, Du Qingchen walked in with his head bowed. After entering the door, he bowed his hands to Shao Qing and saluted, "I've seen the imperial envoy."

"A man of merit doesn't need to kneel when he sees an official. Do you have fame?" Seeing that Du Qingchen didn't want to kneel, Shao Qing asked softly, with self-evident arrogance.

Du Qingchen was taken aback, raised his head and smiled, "I don't study much, so naturally I don't have any fame, but I came here with Mr. Tao as a petty official. Kneel, but if the imperial envoy wants the villain to kneel, it is not impossible to kneel, Du Qingchen has seen it..."

"Come on!" Shao Qing stopped and rolled his eyes secretly. This man looked a little arrogant, but he was also quite talented and witty when he knelt down. The person is proud and honest, but it also completely cuts off the possibility of this person being used by him. There is no need for him to humiliate a person who can help him for a while, just to test it.

Du Qingchen automatically stood up straight before his knees were bent, looking at his nose, nose and heart. Standing there, he looked humble, who knew what thoughts he was thinking.Shao Qing observed for a moment, then said, "I have a tricky matter that I want you to handle."

"My lord, please speak. Qingchen will do his best to share your worries." Du Qingchen raised his hand and replied.

Shao Qing said: "Didn't you catch a few traitors on the way? I have also sent people to interrogate for a long time, but nothing useful has been spit out. You can try it?"

Du Qingchen was taken aback, asked him to interrogate the prisoner? !He can't do such a bloody and cruel thing!He is a modern person, and he is not used to this.

As if seeing Du Qingchen's sudden change of expression, Shao Qing said, "Is there a problem? No way?"

"No, it's just that I don't know whether to save my life or not?" If you torture him to death, you won't be unable to get clues. Human bones are not that hard.

"Save your life, and you have to be a witness! Don't be too seriously injured, lest you be charged with torture and be bitten back." Shao Qing said softly.

No wonder the results of the interrogation have not come out!Du Qingchen understood, cupped his hands and said, "It will take a few days."

"Okay, take your time to interrogate, don't be in a hurry, this disaster has to be relieved slowly! Before returning to Beijing, pick out all the spies and let them testify." Shao Qing said casually.

Du Qingchen was stunned, not allowed to be killed or seriously injured, but also asked them to spit out everything they knew, uncovered other spies, and asked them to be witnesses!This is too much to think highly of him!If you don't recruit, you might still be able to survive, but if you recruit, it will bring the whole family down, who will recruit?No matter how hard the bone is, it is now hard!

Du Qingchen took a deep breath, cupped his hands and said, "Qingchen understands!"

Shao Qing smiled viciously, "Don't be nervous, I won't blame you if you don't pass the trial, remember to tell me when the time comes, I'll give you another easier job to do." Since you changed to an easier job, no favors are needed Count on it, the things that ordinary petty officials can do, but it's not his turn to keep them in mind.

"Thank you for your concern, my lord. Qing Chen will definitely do his best to not let you down."
