Depressed little landlord

Although Xu Yang and Xiang Qing had already negotiated and signed the contract, he still made a special trip to Wangshan Village to find Lin Xuan. The two sides should discuss some details clearly.

"Xiaoxuan, you made good charcoal." Xiang Qing folded his hands on the brazier, and he felt warm after sitting in the room for a while.

His carriage has a compartment and it is quite warm, but after driving all the way, some cold air still leaks in. If he didn't know that the charcoal fire of Lin's family is only enough to maintain the barbecue business, he would have already shared some of it.

Qi Ling can just read and write.

Lin Xuan glanced at him, took out the sweet potato with a smile, tried to press it with his fingers, and when he saw that it was already soft, he leaned upright on the edge of the basin, and he could just take it if he wanted to eat it.

These sweet potatoes were specially sent to them by Xu Xiaoshan, and they were only a dustpan, but it was quite delicious to eat sweet potatoes while warming the fire. Sometimes the two brothers were full from eating sweet potatoes.

Xiang Qing was not too polite, seeing that there were already two or three on the edge of the basin, and Lin Xun, who was sitting on a small stool, did not practice calligraphy at this meeting, but held a two-finger-thick sweet potato and gnawed it. A circle of black marks.

Xu Yang didn't go to the town with him today, he was accompanying the Lin family brothers to read and learn to read and cook sweet potatoes.Because there is no formal cooperation yet, Mother Xu and the others still went to the town to set up a stall as usual.

"Why do you come here when you're not busy in the store?" Seeing him swallowing a sweet potato in two or three bites, Xu Yang asked silently, pouring him a glass of water.

Xiang Qing took another one and was about to peel it. Hearing this, he looked up at the two of them and said with a smile: "Everything is normal in the store, I don't need to stay all the time. Well, this sweet potato is also very good, sweet enough."

Looking at him like this, Lin Xuan couldn't help but find it funny as if he hadn't eaten it. In fact, he laughed too. "If you like to eat, you can exchange some with Xiaoshan and the others. In fact, I think it's really good. Xun'er and I have eaten a lot in the past few days, and today are the only ones left. We are still considering whether to go with Xiaoshan and the others. Buy some."

"Yeah, it's really delicious." Xiang Qing nodded as he ate, "If you go, remember to buy more, and I'll bring some back to Xiao Lingzi."

"puff--"

Although he had heard it a lot, every time he heard Xiang Qing call Qi Ling like that, Lin Xuan couldn't help but burst out laughing. Fortunately, everyone else was used to it now.

"Cough! Okay, I'll pay attention." Lin Xuan himself was a little embarrassed, coughed and stopped laughing, and said a little seriously: "It's good that you are here today, I just wanted to chat with you, but first Thank you very much for agreeing to cooperate with us.”

Xiang Qing waved his hand indifferently, "You're welcome, I've already made a lot of money by cooperating with you. Although some similar restaurants have popped up in the town recently, the business has been affected, but the ingredients made by your family are still better. eat, so overall we are not at a loss.”

For this, Lin Xuan naturally knew about it, and he also understood this phenomenon very well. He had already expected this to happen a long time ago, so he let Xu's mother, sister-in-law Tian, ​​and the others devote themselves to researching a unique sauce from the very beginning. The materials come.

Grilled skewers are really easy to learn. It is very simple and has no technical content at all. It is just a test of the technical heat and ingredients of various barbecues. The same is true for Malatang.

Lin Xuan smiled modestly. Xu's mother's cooking skills can only be said to be relatively good. If other chefs who are really capable cook it out, their stalls will only be affected more. In addition to his previous image, although there are His father's previous reputation was more protective, but his father was gone after all, and he would be helpless even if other shops made some small moves. Cooperation with Xiang Qing was indeed a very timely and good solution.

"I admit that Xu's mother's cooking skills are really good, but it's still far behind those chefs in the town. I just took the lead before, and I can't make much money as a small mess."

"Xiaoxuan, don't be self-effacing. You don't know that when your stall came out, it attracted the whole town. If you didn't know it was yours, even I couldn't help being moved, let alone other people. "Xiang Qing looked at Xu Yang as he spoke, put one hand on the other's shoulder and said with a smile: "Fortunately, Xu Yang came to talk to me before, but I made a contract with you without saying a word, Xiaoxuan, what do you want? Repay me?"

Lin Xuan thanked him sincerely: "I should thank you, to tell you the truth, in fact, I had such an idea before, didn't I ask you to help keep an eye on the shop, but I think the family is still not enough manpower, now I can It would be great to work with you.”

Lin Xuan poured himself a glass of water, held it in his hand and blew it cool, and gave it to Lin Xun to drink when it was colder. He had been eating roasted sweet potatoes and it was quite dry, so drink some water to moisten it.

"Xun'er drink water, don't eat too much, just finish this, or you won't eat later."

"Oh~"

Lin Xun obediently drank a few sips, then continued to gnaw on the unfinished sweet potatoes. The roasted sweet potatoes were sweet and glutinous. He ate them cutely, but he got thirsty easily.

Lin Xuan looked at him like a hamster, with his small mouth constantly moving, and then looked at Xiang Qing who had finished biting one in two bites, his heart moved, he first glanced at Xu Yang and then at Xiang Qing.

Xiang Qing was very uncomfortable being stared at by him for a long time, thinking that he thought he had eaten too much, so he stopped talking and looked at Lin Xuan begging for mercy: "Just say what you have to say, don't look at it with this kind of eyes I, I am not Xu Yang."

After speaking, he looked at Xu Yang meaningfully and smiled.

"Cut! Who cares to look at you!" Lin Xuan's face became hot. Although they didn't say anything about the relationship between the two, they knew what they should know. This was the first time someone teased them in person. Lin Xuan I'm also a little embarrassed.

Suddenly the eyeballs rolled, and the smile was a little mysterious: "I was almost distracted by you. I thought of a new trick just now, but now I suddenly can't remember it."

"Pfft—cough, cough!"

Xiang Qing was just drinking water, so he became anxious immediately, and couldn't care less about teasing others, and he coughed anxiously as he was choked, "Don't...cough-cough-what did you think of? Tell me quickly."

Seeing that Lin Xuan was still a little indifferent, he hurriedly winked at Xu Yang—if he was a brother, he would help.

Xu Yang glanced at him, didn't say anything, and went to turn over the sweet potatoes in the brazier. If he hadn't been looking after them, these few would have been burnt.

Xiang Qing had no choice but to turn to Lin Xuan again, begging: "Xiao Xuan, Master Lin, my brother was wrong just now. As long as you say it, how about my brother giving you [-]% of our cooperation as an apology?"

Lin Xuan's eyes widened when he heard that, even Xu Yang was a little surprised, this was given too much.

"Xiang Qing, aren't you too generous?" Lin Xuan said directly, "We are just a small business, and you really won't make much money if you do this."

Xu Yang also looked over, "Are you sure?"

It was written in the contract before that they accounted for [-]%, and there is no one from the Lin family, which is equivalent to Lin Xuan's pure profit sharing. Now add [-]%, then...

Xiang Qing was also quick-mouthed at first, but now seeing Lin Xuan and Xu Yang, the previous regret in his heart disappeared, and he smiled heartily and said: "Of course, Xiang Qing is the kind of person who doesn't believe what he says. people?"

Lin Xuan and Xu Yang looked at each other, then looked at Xiang Qing at the same time, Lin Xuan stretched out his hand to pat his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Since you are so forthright, then I can't really be someone who takes advantage of my friends."

After a pause, he continued: "Well, since those people like to follow suit so much, then we will launch other foods than them, so that when they catch up, we will earn better in advance, what do you think?"

Xiang Qing nodded without thinking about it, said yes, and raised his hand to put Lin Xuan's shoulder, but when he was about to touch him, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xu Yang next to him, and stopped immediately, patted it instead and took it back .

"Let's talk, I'm just waiting for your words. Just tell me how to do it. I'll be responsible for the rest."

"Well, just right, I really have some ideas here. When I get it done, I can add it and sell it directly."

Xiang Qing thought for a while and nodded, then looked up and saw the pen and paper that Lin Xun had spread on the table to practice calligraphy, so he stood up and walked over, changed another piece of white paper, picked up the pen and wrote Get up, and show Lin Xuan, Xu Yang and the others before Mo Cang finished writing.

"According to what I said before, I re-wrote the contract. You can see if there are any problems. If there is no problem, let's press our fingerprints here."

Lin Xuan and Xu Yang were really surprised this time, but they didn't expect Xiang Qing to tell the truth.

Xu Yang frowned slightly, looked at Xiang Qing with disapproval and said, "You have too many."

Lin Xuan nodded in agreement.

Xiang Qing smiled, sincerely, "It should be, don't you think that Xiaoxuan's ideas are all refreshing? I'm afraid that I won't give it away. If someone poached it first, then I can only cry It's up to you."

At the end, he comforted him and said: "Okay, I'm sure I won't lose money. You see, I'm taking the lion's share, and I'm just taking care of it. The recipe is copied from yours, not to mention that you will continue to think of new things later." Yes, this prescription alone can make a lot of money."

Lin Xuan looked at Xu Yang. He knew that there was indeed a story in some time-traveling stories where the seller made a lot of money. In fact, it was not that he hadn't thought about this idea before, but now he heard it and still didn't believe it.

Xu Yang nodded slightly to show that what Xiang Qing said was right, and he also felt right now, isn't that what Xiaoxuan thought of?It's just that they set up a stall like this and others can easily learn it. If it is difficult, they will indeed earn money.

"In this case, then we will accept it, and we will help more in the future, but I don't want to just look at Xiaoxuan. You have people with good craftsmanship, and Xiaoxuan is just a layman."

Xiang Qing glanced at Xu Yang, then at Lin Xuan, then blinked, and nodded: "Understood, I won't tire your Young Master Lin. Then it's settled? Xiaoxuan, what will you think of in the future?" Don’t forget to tell me about the new one.”

Xu Yang suddenly moved his body to the side, trying to keep a distance from him as if he didn't know him, which made Xiang Qing almost fall down accidentally, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and stabilized himself.

Lin Xuan here was helpless: "Of course, after all, we are grasshoppers on the same rope now, isn't making money for you just making money for me?"

"...Haha, I was just joking, what are you doing so seriously?"

Lin Xun looked around and saw that the three adults hadn't noticed him, so his little paw quietly touched Xu Yangliang's sweet potato beside him.

***

In the small town, recently I found that the stalls at "Youjian Restaurant" suddenly disappeared. At first, everyone didn't pay much attention to it. After all, there have been several shops in the town that sell this kind of food. Lin's stalls are even more delicious. Some of them are not very good but the price is lower, so many customers will lose.

Those who are open-minded will know, some feel sorry for the young master of the Lin family, and some don't take it seriously.

But not long after, it was revealed that "Youjian Restaurant" would continue to sell these skewers and Malatang, and there were even those who were well-informed. When it comes to new foods, there will be new ones, and the gossip will have two. Two makes three... Before long, the town almost knew about the "trail".

"Cut! Do you think Xiang Qing is a noble person? Before, he swore so strongly that he would not get involved, but now..." A shopkeeper curled his lips.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant diagonally opposite to Xiang's house put down the teacup with a slap, and said angrily, "Before you pretended that it belonged to a friend, why don't you just swallow it now?"

Left front home——"You all keep your eyes open and look carefully, as long as they... you are like this, do you hear me?"

"New food? Interesting. Hurry up and think of a way, but don't let people climb on your head again, or I won't be able to keep you if the boss blames you."
