Take Taobao to ancient times

"Are you scared?" Song Jue smiled, and looked at him with folded arms, "You have caused so many things that you even followed overseas, and you thought the emperor didn't know you?"

"I mean... the emperor also intends to open a restaurant?" Lu Siyu asked cautiously. If the emperor really participated in the restaurant matter, wouldn't it mean that the emperor's true self will be behind the restaurant?

"However, the emperor intends to open a restaurant, but the news of the restaurant circulates quickly, which is a good channel to get news." Song Jue said seriously.

"But if the emperor is really involved, wouldn't it be easy for those people to know about it?" Lu Siyu asked. In fact, in terms of news, he knew that the Internet spread the fastest. It's just that there is no electricity in this era, let alone the Internet. up.

As a restaurant is an open area, the speed of news circulation is indeed relatively fast in this era.

"The emperor will not participate in the matter of opening a restaurant, and neither will I. The emperor will arrange other people to take over all matters. But one thing, how many people in the restaurant in the county know that you are the owner behind the scenes?" Song Jue asked.

"Not many," Lu Siyu shook his head, "Except for the shopkeeper and the restaurant boy, the diners who come to eat don't know that I am the owner of Lu's restaurant."

"That's good," Song Jue nodded, "The business model of Lu's restaurant is so special that anyone who has been there will remember it deeply. If restaurants in the capital are like Lu's restaurants, sooner or later someone will think of them together. If almost everyone Everyone knows that the Lu family restaurant is yours, so this matter will be more difficult to handle, but not many people know, so it will be easier."

"But even if not many people know about it, some people do. If someone really wants to find out, it's easy to find out that the Lu's restaurant is mine. In addition, everyone knows about my relationship with Brother Zhuang. My uncle wants to stay out of it." Impossible." Lu Siyu frowned, really unable to understand Song Jue's thoughts.

"Just to let them know." Song Jue said with a smile.

"Ah?" Lu Siyu asked in surprise.

"Don't worry, I'll let someone handle the matter of the restaurant, including buying the restaurant and the chef. As for the decoration of the restaurant, didn't you bring someone from the county to take care of it?" Song Jue patted He patted Lu Siyu's shoulder and smiled.

"Uncle," Zhuang Jinhan entered the room and saw the two of them talking, "Uncle is talking to Brother Yu?"

"We were talking about opening a restaurant. Xiao Yu didn't know where she was born in the capital, and she didn't have any acquaintances, so she had to come to me. It happened that there were royal cooks in the palace who were about to retire, so they could work in Xiao Yu's restaurant." Song Jue said, Looking at Zhuang Jinhan again, "How about you, how are you doing recently?"

"Recently, the first batch of crops we planted died a lot, and those adults are a little bit devastated." Zhuang Jinhan said, feeling helpless about this matter.

"I can't help it. I don't know the habits of those crops. I have to try different methods after taking so much. It's a pity that those small countries don't have books that teach people how to grow them. Otherwise, they can save some detours." Song Jue said.

"Yes, it would be great if there was such a book." Zhuang Jinhan shook his head.

"Actually... I can go and have a look." Lu Siyu suddenly raised his head.

"What does Brother Yu mean?" Zhuang Jinhan suddenly thought that Lu Siyu once said that he had studied with foreigners for a while, if it was Lu Siyu, maybe he could really identify those seeds.

"If it's just pure seeds, maybe I don't know what they are, but if there are crops that grow, maybe I can find a way, but I can only guarantee to recognize part of it." Lu Siyu didn't finish his sentence, after all, what he said The identification of crops still depends on the encyclopedia of crop books published in modern times, or searching on Taobao according to the appearance of crops when they grow up. The efficiency of doing so is definitely not much higher.

"No matter how many you recognize, as long as Brother Yu can recognize some of them, you can save a lot of manpower and time to study other crops." Zhuang Jinhan said happily, every time Lu Siyu's answer surprised him constantly.

"Then I'll go and have a look with Brother Zhuang, and I'll trouble my uncle about the restaurant." Lu Siyu laughed.

The conversation with Song Jue earlier made Lu Siyu understand that the restaurant he is going to open next is actually mainly for the emperor, and he, Lu Siyu, is just a pawn on the bright side to attract attention, the emperor There is no shortage of money, what he needs is information, and Lu Siyu can also use this restaurant to develop his business.

It is simply a great thing to kill two birds with one stone.

After the restaurant opens, if Lu Siyu has the ability, he can continue to expand the restaurant, and the people behind him will definitely support him. If he is not capable, the emperor can also replace him.

All in all, the emperor doesn't care who the actual person in charge of the restaurant is, he just needs a restaurant that can be under his control.

Such an existence would definitely be firmly tied to the emperor.

In this case, if the person who is tied to the restaurant is an ordinary official, or even a minister of the court, Lu Siyu will definitely hesitate, but this person is the emperor, so being tied to the emperor at this time is undoubtedly a big deal. Got a gold medal for avoiding death, but the premise is that he can keep his own place.

It is undoubtedly appropriate to hand over the full power of the restaurant to Song Jue.

"So... the two of you are leaving, and I'm the only one left?" Song Jue frowned.

"My uncle is wise and powerful, and one counts ten. It is the most correct choice to leave this matter to my uncle." Lu Siyu said seriously, and poked Zhuang Jinhan casually.

"It's hard work for a capable uncle." Zhuang Jinhan smiled, and obediently took up Lu Siyu's topic.

"Both of you? Sigh!" Song Jue sighed, "Forget it, it's not the first time you two have teamed up to deal with it. Go, go, stop waving in front of my eyes, it hurts my eyes."

"Then it's hard work, uncle." Lu Siyu smiled, and took Zhuang Jinhan's arm directly to go out.

After leaving the door, Zhuang Jinhan turned his head and looked at Lu Siyu: "Don't Brother Yu really want to open a restaurant? Why did you leave everything to my uncle?"

"I can't help it," Lu Siyu said helplessly, "What my brother means is that the restaurant is a good place to collect information, so it's better to leave it to my brother."

"Has the emperor intervened?" Zhuang Jinhan asked softly.

"How did Brother Zhuang know?" Lu Siyu was surprised. He had just chatted with Song Jue for a long time before he figured out the cause and effect. Zhuang Jinhan hit the point just because of his simple sentence!

"It can be guessed," Zhuang Jinhan nodded, "The emperor and I grew up together. After the death of the first emperor, the emperor took the throne logically. On the surface, it seemed that he did not encounter any troubles, but in fact, many ministers in the court respected the emperor. It's all superficial."

Lu Siyu nodded. He knew something about this matter, not because he understood the affairs of the court, but it has been like this since ancient times. The deterrence of the first emperor is one thing. Hold absolute power for a while.

Strictly speaking, the current emperor has only been in power for more than three years. During these three years, he has gradually held the power in my hands. From digging river channels to promoting sweet potatoes, he has promoted everything by himself.

Naturally, the ministers would not directly oppose the emperor, but many ministers also felt that the emperor was still young and secretly did not take him seriously.

"I remember my uncle said before going to sea that the emperor trusts brother Zhuang very much, that's why he sent brother Zhuang to sea." Lu Siyu suddenly thought of this matter, and it was at that time that he knew that Zhuang Jinhan's relationship with the emperor might be unusual.

"The emperor doesn't have many people available in the court, so he tried every means to get me back to Beijing." Zhuang Jinhan said, this does not mean that Zhuang Jinhan is so strong that the emperor wants to keep him, but that the emperor does not have too much What a trustworthy person, that's why Zhuang Jinhan was kept in the capital.

"No wonder Brother Zhuang has stayed in the capital since we came back from the sea." Lu Siyu suddenly realized that he thought it was because the emperor couldn't find a suitable position that he kept Zhuang Jinhan in the capital.

"Brother Yu, do you still remember what you said?" Zhuang Jinhan asked suddenly.

"Ah? What did I say?" Lu Siyu was puzzled. It wasn't that he was forgetful, but that he had said so much. Zhuang Jinhan's sudden words without any hint made him a little confused.

"Brother Yu once said that being with a king is like being with a tiger." Zhuang Jinhan said with a smile.

"Yes, I said that before," Lu Siyu nodded, but still didn't understand what Zhuang Jinhan meant. Did he mean that the relationship between the two of them was too close to the emperor, but now the emperor is the one who took the initiative? How to refuse, "What does Brother Zhuang mean?"

"A companion like a tiger doesn't mean us," Zhuang Jinhan said with a low smile, "but those who are not trusted by the emperor."

"This..." Lu Siyu's eyes widened suddenly, "Brother Zhuang, you mean the emperor's plan?"

"Hush—" Zhuang Jinhan put his finger on Lu Siyu's lips, "Be careful that the walls have ears."

"Yeah." Lu Siyu nodded quickly, took Zhuang Jinhan's hand and held it tightly, "I'd better pretend I don't know anything. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with me. It doesn't happen now, and it won't happen in the future."

"Well, Brother Yu, don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with Brother Yu." Zhuang Jinhan smiled and shook Lu Siyu's hand calmly.

"I'd better be an ordinary citizen." Lu Siyu smiled. As a native modern person, he always felt that he was not suitable for the superior environment, and he didn't plan to have a good relationship with the emperor to get promoted and make a fortune. Just live well in ancient times.

At most... just do a little more.

But he can be blamed for this, because he still has Taobao on him, and he always feels itchy if he doesn't take out some.

"Master Zhuang."

"Are the other adults still there?"

"Report to Mr. Zhuang, the other adults have already returned." The guard at the door said seriously, and couldn't help but glance at the hands that the two held. Although the fingers were not intertwined, the relationship should be really good, but Glancing quietly, he withdrew his gaze.

"Open the door, let's go in and have a look," Zhuang Jinhan let go of Lu Siyu's hand without any trace, and patted his shoulder again, "Brother Yu, if there is a big harvest this time, the emperor will definitely meet you."

"The emperor? Can I see you?" Lu Siyu asked in fear, curiosity was nothing but curiosity, meeting the emperor was like meeting the supreme leader, and he couldn't bear it.

"That foolish brother, go back and talk to your father about it." Zhuang Jinhan smiled.

"That's good too. It's sure to be all right with my uncle on board." Lu Siyu said hastily.

At this moment, the door opened, and the two entered together.

The guard looked at the backs of the two, and something flashed in his heart, but since they are brothers, it is not surprising that they are closer, and the actions just now were probably discussing something.
