Zhou Yunchu was on the steps. Seeing that the timing was almost the same, someone mentioned the specimen painting, so he stretched out his hand to everyone, pressed down, and made a "quiet" gesture.

Zhou Yun's appearance is mediocre, but he is full of momentum. In addition to his age, his serious face gives people a sense of calmness.

So as soon as he spoke, everyone fell silent, waiting for Zhou Yun to speak.

"Thank you very much for your great support to our restaurant. After I reported the situation to the owner, the owner decided to hold a flower feast every month in the future. Next month and today, you can still taste the pastries of the restaurant and appreciate the pastries from the owner. A painting by Mr. Chen's hand."

"Not only that, the owner has said that next month's pastries will introduce new varieties."

"Okay, to make a long story short, anyone who is interested can go to the front desk and ask the shopkeeper. Next, I will answer the questions from the masters just now—" Zhou Yun's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and he spoke in an unhurried manner.

"The specimen painting has been moved to the second floor, and the auction of the specimen painting will be held on the second floor in half a minute."

Zhou Yun said, and made a gesture of invitation, "Please follow me upstairs."

Some people don't have much silver on them, but they like to join in the fun and follow them.Some were curious about the so-called auction and wanted to find out.Another part wants to take a closer look at the specimen painting.

In short, almost everyone followed Zhou Yun upstairs.

Wen Yao has been observing from the back of the hall. He didn't expect so many people to come up, but fortunately, Ruantao is more prepared.

After everyone was seated, Zhou Yun set up a table and loudly announced the bidding requirements.

"The item in this auction will be awarded to the one with the highest price, and there will be three breaths to consider each time..."

"The starting price is 20 taels of silver."

As soon as the words were spoken, the crowd immediately boiled.

20 taels of silver is not much, but it is also a lot. Some scholars who came to join in the fun can only hold back their flags. Originally, they wanted to take a picture and take it home, while others thought they must take it and take it to their friends. Look, it must be very face-saving.

Even some managers or small merchants secretly rubbed their hands, gearing up for a big fight.

At this time, Shun An suddenly trotted up to Wen Yao, and before he had time to take a breath, he said, "Master, Second Young Master Xu is here."

Wen Yao is a little puzzled, isn't it just someone here, why be nervous?

He looked at Shun An and asked, "Where is he? Does he have an admission ticket? If not, he can't come in."

Shun'an resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Is his master really stupid or fake? The second young master turned the tide and emerged from among the many heirs, and became the head of the family within a few days. That was the position of the head of the family that everyone in the Xu family wanted!

"Master, that's the head of the Xu family, it will be better if he can come to our business!" Shun'an suddenly raised his voice, and only after he finished speaking did he remember that the emperor was still there.

Compared to the richest man, Xu Rongyu, he was naturally more inclined to the emperor. Thinking of this, he slapped himself on the head suddenly. Who is his master? !

Just now he had an eager face, but now he was full of smiles, Wen Yao saw that smile in his eyes, and just thought why this child was startled by a guy named Xu Rongyu, and now he still has a smirk on his face.

Wen Yao guessed for a while, and finally came to the conclusion that Shun'an fell in love with the man named Xu Rongyu. He sighed silently. People in this era value the right marriage most. Shun'an has no identity, and the key person has no such function. .

Think of it as a bitter drama of unrequited love.

Shun'an didn't know that his master was thinking wrong, he smiled to himself for a while, and said: "The person brought the admission ticket, I will bring him up right away, Er Shao Xu is not short of money, if he goes to the second floor, I value these specimen paintings of the master, and I will definitely fetch a good price at the auction."

After thinking about it, Wen Yao also felt that this was the reason. He turned his head and glanced at Ye Chu who was sitting in front of the case handling official business, his eyes suddenly softened, he turned his head to signal Shun An to go out first, and then slowly walked to Ye Chu and knelt down.

"Busy?"

"Not busy, what's the matter?" Ye Chu looked up at him with a soft tone.

Wen Yao touched the back of his hand and said softly, "Does Ziyu know Xu Rongyu?"

"I know." Ye Chu grabbed his hand, clasped their hands together, and looked at Wen Yao with the corners of his lips curled up.

"How do you know his character?"

"Character?" Ye Chu's voice was low, and the word was contained between his lips, as if his lover was whispering sweet words in his ear.

Wen Yao reacted abruptly, and explained: "Character! Yes, how about Xu Rong and character?"

Almost forgot the man's name.

"Other people can be friends." Ye Chu said, he and Xu Rongyu only had occasional contact, and he didn't know what the other party was like in private, but they were very good partners.

Wen Yao nodded, being able to confess shows that his character is not bad.

"Why did you suddenly ask him?" Ye Chu looked into Wen Yao's shining eyes.

Wen Yao didn't intend to hide it from him either, who told him to like the other party, do not hide or cheat and pamper the other party, this is the principle he treats the other half.

"He's here now." Wen Yao said, "He's downstairs. Shun'an went to pick him up. I heard he's very rich. We can make a fortune like this."

Hearing this, Ye Chu was amused by his words, with thin lips slightly raised under the bridge of his nose.

He stared at Wen Yao, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to overflow with water.

"For a while, I will be next to Yaoyao to squeeze the big family together."

Where did Wen Yao ask the emperor to do it, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I don't need Ziyu to do it myself, I have already figured out a way."

Ye Chu smiled, looking at him softly in his eyes.

"Okay, then if he doesn't agree, I'll take another shot."

Wen Yao was filled with a sweet smile, and his heart was soft. It felt so good to be cared for. His family Ziyu is so good, he must treat Ziyu better.

This kind of thinking of being good to the object and pampering the object is deeply ingrained. It is probably a unique gene of the Wen family. Of course, he refers to the Wen family of later generations.

The current Wen Sheng family is simply a disgrace to the Wen family.

How can there be such a father?

Thinking of this, Wen Yao's eyes darkened, and an idea was about to come out. When he made more money, he would become a well-known wealthy businessman by the end of the year at the latest.

When the time comes, give the child a surprise.

He looked forward to the other party's expression when the time came.

Thinking of this, he smiled lightly, and just about to approach Ye Chu, Shun'an's voice sounded outside the door, "Master, Master Xu has arrived."

In front of his own face, Shun'an didn't call Xu Ershao again, but called Xu Patriarch with a bit of respect.

"Please come in." Wen Yao immediately sat on the other side, still sighing a little in his heart, if he had known earlier, he should have gotten close to Ziyu in advance.

"Patriarch Xu, please." Shun'an pushed open the door and respectfully invited people into the room.

Xu Rongyu didn't say a word, glanced at the guard behind him, and said, "Wait at the door."

Seeing the direction of his finger, Shun'an was stunned for a moment, thinking of the identity of the other party, he could only ignore Liu Zhao's unwilling eyes, and said politely to Xu Ronghe: "It stands to reason that he is the shopkeeper of our restaurant, There is no reason to guard the door, but you are a distinguished guest, so I will persuade you later."

Xu Rong and his thick eyebrows moved, he didn't expect that this villain didn't lie to him, he had a hasty farewell in Xu's mansion that day, he only thought that the child was afraid of him, so he deliberately made up words to deceive him.

Shun'an felt a bit of embarrassment, he hurriedly said please again, Xu Ronghe then looked away, stepped over the threshold and walked in, Shun'an closed the door, then smiled at the guard, and asked Liu to go On one side, he whispered: "What's going on? It seems that Xu Ershao knows you?"

Liu please shook his head with a dazed look on his face. He only felt that this person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

That's right, he sees so many people a day, everyone remembers, and he must not be exhausted.

Shun'an did not doubt that he was there, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, everyone has gone up to the second floor. The front desk should have nothing to do. I'll just go and watch over it. I'll trouble you to stay here."

Liu please said "um", but it was not difficult to keep outside the door.

After Shun'an left, he stood alone with the guards.

"Patriarch Xu?" Wen Yao was a little surprised when he saw the person coming. He thought that the current head of the Xu family hadn't run away at the age of 30. Unexpectedly, he was so young. "Sit here."

Xu Rongyu nodded, his eyes lingered on Ye Chu's face behind Wen Yao for a moment, and then moved to Wen Yao's body to quietly look at him for a few weeks.

The boy is not very old, but there is a smug morale in his brows.

"To be honest, I just heard from Shun'an that Patriarch Xu came with the admission ticket. No matter how I think about it, I feel surprised." Wen Yao didn't feel timid when he met his cold expression, probably because he was protected by the emperor behind him. Or get along with the emperor for a long time, and the temperament is just like the emperor.

Wen Yao started talking, and Xu Rong spoke to the emperor who was present.He pursed his lips and said: "These days the capital is full of good food, unfortunately I also want to come to see what is flower food, but it's a pity that I came late."

"It doesn't matter, our restaurant will open again next month, and then my younger brother will send someone to deliver the admission ticket to your house."

"Then I'll take care of you." Xu Rongyu nodded, said polite words on his mouth, but there was no politeness on his face, as soon as he finished speaking, he thought of the person at the door, and said: "I have a merciless request. "

"Master Xu, please tell me, if you need help from my younger brother, I will definitely help." He smiled and said that he would help, but he kept muttering in his heart. This man is very rich and has some friendship with Ziyu. I really don't know how I can help on him.

"I'm relieved to have Mr. Wen's words. It's not difficult to say. I just hope that the little brother outside will be the one who will send the admission ticket."

Wen Yao breathed a sigh of relief, that's all! ?

"This is easy to handle, I will tell him." After Wen Yao finished speaking, he thought about how to eat the big family. "Although Patriarch Xu missed the pastry, you must have seen the people sitting outside when you came up just now."

Xu Rongyu nodded slightly.

Wen Yao waited for him to ask, and when he saw that he didn't ask a question after waiting for a while, he said cheekily, "This is a major feature of our people's restaurant—the auction. I wonder if Patriarch Xu is interested?"

Xu Rongyu had never heard of an "auction" before. His tone was raised, and his deep voice escaped from his lips and teeth. The low "oh" was very captivating, but Wen Yao had Ye Chu in his heart, and turned to him. The voice is not very cold.

"What's the meaning of the auction?"

Wen Yao explained, "I just got eight specimen paintings here, so I want to buy eight specimen paintings through auction competition."

Another unheard word, Xu Rongyu frowned slightly.

Wen Yao checked his words and expressions, then got up and said, "Since Patriarch Xu is interested, you might as well watch it with my younger brother."

After the name change, there was a hint of a closer relationship, but Wen Yao, who was so busy taking care of the big family, didn't notice a certain man with a dark face.

"Then there is Mr. Lauwin."

"You are too polite, just call me Wen Yao."

Xu Rongyu obviously noticed the gloomy-faced emperor following behind, so he had an idea and found a way for himself, "I'm older than you, how about calling you Brother Wen?"

"Okay." Wen Yao said with a smile, many friends have many paths, so don't offend them if they are good friends.

Especially a big family like Xu Ershao who has both good looks and money!

Although in Dachen there is no obvious scholar-agriculture-industrialism, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing businessmen, but from the beginning to the present people's concept still remains that businessmen are inferior to farmers, let alone high-ranking officials.

But Wen Yao is different. He lives in an era when farmers are inferior to businessmen, and poor people are inferior to rich people.

In a word, whoever has money can do whatever he wants.

"Then I'll call you Brother Xu."

Xu Rongyu nodded.

As soon as Wen Yao opened the door, he saw the waiter guarding the door. Just wondering, he heard Xu Rongyu say in a very natural way: "I don't know the auction process, Brother Wen also has his own things to do—"

Speaking of looking at Ye Chu behind Wen Yao, Wen Yao followed his gaze and saw Ye Chu with a dull face at a glance. He was moved by it, and immediately regretted not paying attention to Ye Chu's mood in time.

Ye Chu looked sullen, could he be jealous?Wait... Did I misunderstand something?

Immediately wondered if Ye Chu also liked him?

Xu Rongyu didn't know what he was thinking, and when he saw him in a daze, he reminded him in a low voice, and then without waiting for Wen Yao's reply, he directly said to Liu Qing, "Let's go."

"But—" Liu Qing wanted to say something, but he was dragged away by his arm. How could his strength compare to Xu Rongyu, but he was in the crowd for a moment.

Knowing his identity, Zhou Yun specially reserved a high-class seat for him. Xu Rong and the past sat directly on the rattan chair, and then motioned for Liu Qing to also sit down.

Liu please shook his head, although he didn't know the identity of this person, but he could let the little master receive him, he thought he had an extraordinary identity.And... why does this person seem to be familiar with him?

How could he not remember seeing this person?

Seeing that he was still not moving, Xu Rongyu stretched out his hand and quickly pulled the man to sit beside him, noticing the other's flutter, and said in a low voice, "Sit down, don't move around."

"Help me which one looks better?"

Liu please heard the words and didn't understand.

After thinking about the purpose of Bianmin Restaurant, I started to read it seriously.

In front of the door, Wen Yao looked at the disappearing figure, suddenly came back to his senses and smiled at Ye Chu, stepped forward to him, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to go and have a look?"

"Do you want to go?" Ye Chu asked without answering.

That attitude seems to say - I will accompany you if you want to go.

Yiyue's mood rose steadily.

The words that came out were also full of joy, "I want to go and have a look, Liu please is reserved, I'm afraid he won't be able to get a big family."

Ye Chu didn't speak, stared at the boy for a while, and then hummed with a smile in his eyes. The voice was low and deep, which brought a tingling sensation to his body.

The two of them brought a bodyguard, Wen Yao had never seen that bodyguard before, it was probably the newly transferred Habayashi Army, but he was a little uncertain, after all, he didn't know many people around Ye Chu, and his current identity was the emperor's People, even if Ye Chu knows his identity, but others don't, the play still has to be done enough.

He must not let interested people know his true identity. Before returning to the palace, he must develop Minshifu as soon as possible. He has already thought about it. If Minshifu needs to expand, he will start from the neighboring counties, and then go to the north and north-south areas.

The buddies also need to recruit new people, and the shopkeeper also needs to recruit people.

But there is no hurry now, wait for him to formulate a new plan.

When the three of them came to the hall, they immediately saw Xu Rong and He Liu, they were sitting next to each other, a gap formed between Wen Yao's eyebrows, what happened to Xu Rong and He Liu?

Could it be that he misunderstood Xu Rongyu, the other party is just cold-tempered, but he is still a good person?

The auction was in full swing, Wen Yao went to ask Xiaode first, "How many pictures have you taken?"

"The third one."

As soon as the words stopped, Zhou Yun on the stage said: "The following is the fourth specimen painting, and the starting price is 20 taels of silver."

It was a specimen painting mainly red, the petals were roses, and the snow was fluttering. In the snow stood a proudly vermilion rose, surrounded by dead branches and withered. Below the rose was a piece of land, which was covered by heavy snow, with only a little bit exposed. Earthen soil.

The strange thing is that everyone seems to smell the fragrance of earth and the high-pitched and strong aroma of roses.

"Did you smell a scent of roses?"

"Smell it."

"I really don't think this painting is worth so much money."

People say tsk tsk.One person raised the wooden sign in his hand and shouted: "100 taels."

Everyone was surprised.

Just when everyone thought that the person would take away the picture of a rose standing proudly in the snow, another voice said, "200 taels."

Everyone looked at the source of the sound, it was a handsome young man.

"Is there any price increase?" Zhou Yun asked loudly, "200 two times, 200 two times... two—"

"250 taels!" The voice was interrupted by a deep and rough male voice, everyone looked at him one after another, Liu Qing also looked over, it was the man who just asked for 100 taels.

He was in his early thirties, richly dressed, with a rough gold chain around his neck.

Wen Yao clicked his tongue slightly, but he didn't expect that the nouveau riche of this era is also similar to the nouveau riche of later generations.

The shiny-looking man in his early thirties snorted provocatively in Xu Rongyu's direction.

Liu Qing slowly frowned.

Xu Rongyu didn't pay attention to that person's provocation. Seeing the child frowning, his eyes suddenly sank. He was extremely upset. With a sullen face, he continued to increase the price, "400 taels."

As soon as the words came out, there was an uproar, Liu Qing also opened his eyes wide, and looked up at him in astonishment.

The nouveau riche gritted his teeth and followed, "450 taels."

This was exactly what Wen Yao and Ye Chu heard when they came over. Wen Yao raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect this fat man to work so hard.

Ye Chu had no expression on his face. On the other hand, Xiaode had an expression of "meeting Ah Piao". He opened his mouth and took a while to organize his words, "What is this for? Could it be that they want to increase the price?"

As soon as the words died, a deep and pleasant voice sounded, and it was uttered in 500 seconds.

The people sitting there were all shocked, and then they felt that the man in the fine clothes was of extraordinary status. To them, this 500 taels was a lot of money, but to others, it was just a tip of the mountain of gold and silver.

Wen Yao's delicate willow-leaf eyebrows were raised high, wondering why Xu Rongyu was thinking of competing for paintings, but Wen Yao didn't think his paintings were so attractive.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the big family, but he didn't say anything, and the big family "showed their skills" by themselves.

His eyes shuttled between Xu Rong and He Liuqing, looking at the shoulders of the two who were almost touching each other.

I always feel a little strange, but I can't tell what's wrong.

At this time, the upstart chased after him and called 550 taels, and the whole process was already dumbfounded.

Earlier, he just said that this painting is very beautiful, why did this person want to take it?Could it be that he also likes this specimen painting?So you want to buy it and hang it at home?

Well, it must be so.

Please guess secretly.

In the blink of an eye, he took a peek at the second young master of the Xu family. He was young and handsome. He heard from Shun'an that his family was very rich.

No wonder it cost 400 taels without blinking an eyelid.

Xiaode clicked his tongue secretly, and heard his master say: "Can you guess which upstart will follow suit?"

upstart?Well, this title really suits that person, Xiaode thought, and made an inference, "Xiaode thinks that nouveau riche will not add more."

Wen Yao wrote down his words, then turned to Ye Chu and asked, "What does Ziyu think?"

Before Ye Chu finished speaking, his eyes paused for a moment on the face full of flesh, and then he said calmly, "Yes."

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the upstart shouted again: "600 taels!"

This time his voice was rough/heavy, as if he was trying to force himself, he clenched his hands tightly, clenched his teeth, his face was ferocious, his teeth bared, and his eyes were scarlet.

The people below were discussing in low voices.

"600 taels is not a small amount, at least I can't afford that much." The man who spoke was a young man wearing a thorn cloth gown.

"That... um, the master is really generous." The young man with the appearance of a scholar looked at the fat stomach full of brains, and then continued after a pause.

The nouveau riche listened carefully to these rumors, and when someone said that he spent a lot of money, he immediately felt full of face. He straightened his hair and straightened his cardigan, and still did not forget to glaring at Xu Rong and Xiaobailian.

Seeing this, Liu frowned and muttered, "What's the matter with that man?"

"What's the matter?" Xu Rong and Er Li Congda heard the child mumbling, lowered their heads and asked in a low voice.

"That's who, it's so annoying." Clenched his fists, his face was full of "I'm not happy" "arrogant" expression.

Xu Ronghe's eyes darkened, the child's pouting appearance was too cute.

"Well, don't worry, I will fight for you."

"Ah?" What?etc--

Before he had time to stop him, Xu Rong and the guard raised the placard again, "1000 taels."

If 600 taels can make people amazed, 1000 taels is far beyond everyone's expectations. The scene was out of control for a while, and some people even shouted, "1000 taels! 1000 taels! Could this be some kind of extinct master? Or a rare treasure?" ?!"

I never heard that the owner of Minshifu is that master!

"An unknown painting is worth 1000 taels. I am ignorant and unheard of."

"What happened today is really shocking."

Someone sneaked a peek at the upstart who was still asking for a price before. I don't know if this person will continue to follow.

The nouveau riche's face was embarrassing, turning blue and white, as if he had eaten paste.

"Brothers, you said that, master, won't you continue to bid?"

"I don't think so."

"I'm a vulgar person, I shouldn't be adding 1000 taels."

"That master seems to be not short of silver taels. The thick gold chain around his neck should be worth ten taels?"

"Weighing ten taels? I think it's more than that, at least twenty taels."

"One tael of gold is equal to eight taels of silver, and six taels of gold is 160 taels."

"It's a pity that it can't compare to that young master's 1000 taels of silver."

After waiting for a while to see that everyone was discussing about the same, Zhou Yuncai said after most of the excitement, "Two once for 1000, two times for 1000, two or three times for 1000, the deal is done!"

"Tomorrow our folks at Minshi Restaurant will deliver this painting of snow roses to your residence."

Liu Qing frowned, and stared at Xu Rongyu with a puzzled expression on his face. Xu Rongyu looked in his eyes, but he was not angry, and joked with the corner of his mouth, "It doesn't look good when you wrinkle your face like this."

"You're not good-looking!" Liu Qing stared at her round eyes, pupils full of accusations, "Why did you spend... spend so much money on this painting?"

There is really too much money to use up.

Liu Qing thought indignantly, and after a while felt that he was blind/worried/worried again, he was just a stranger, and he didn't care how he wanted to spend money, not with his own silver, but seeing the half-smile of the other party, he suddenly had With a smiling face, he felt that he still had to talk to someone and persuade him not to spend money lavishly.

"You don't like that painting?" Xu Rongyu asked without answering.

How could Liu Qing not like it?

But if he said he didn't like it against his will, and he couldn't say it, he could only lower his head and hum in a low voice, which still didn't escape Xu Rong and his ears.

He smiled lowly, and the voice pierced into Liu Qing's ears and vibrated slightly, Liu Qing only felt his ears itching.

"If you like it, buy it."

"No, no, no." Liu Qing quickly waved his hand, flattered, "I don't have that kind of vision, so I can't appreciate these things."

Xu Rongyu looked at him, and suddenly asked, "Do you think I'm handsome?"

Liu please look at his appearance carefully, sword eyebrows and star eyes, plump and handsome, really handsome, he nodded in agreement.

"Then you have a good eye."

Liu please didn't think about it seriously, and Pan Ran came to his senses when he took the second picture, tried his best to endure it, and twitched the corner of his mouth several times without holding back, anyway, how could the richest man be so "pretentious"?

Xu Rongyu took two pictures, and everyone only thought that he had a little money. When the third picture was taken at 500 taels, everyone looked at him with jealousy, envy and flattery.

The last five frames were all shot.

When the banquet was over, Wen Yao sat at the front table.Zhou Yun said: "Master, I bought 80 taels for the first one, 100 taels for the second one, 1000 taels for the third one, 500 taels for the fourth one, 500 taels for the fifth one, 200 taels for the sixth one, and 300 taels for the seventh one. 150 taels, the eighth piece is 830 taels; a total of [-] taels."

Several people were very happy when they heard this. This time, they collected more money than the last time, and this was only the proceeds from the auction of specimen paintings. In addition to the previous membership and purchase of pastries, it can be said that they made a lot of money tonight. .

"The pastries cost one tael of silver. There are four kinds of pastries, each with 80 servings, totaling [-] taels."

Wen Yao nodded somewhat satisfied with this income, but it was still a little unsatisfactory. Next month, the number of copies will double, and the price will also increase by [-]%.

From the original one tael of silver to three taels of silver per plate, and one plate of two cakes.

Drinks are prepared at the same time.

The weather will get colder next month, drinking hot drinks can satisfy the stomach and make people feel comfortable.

Such as mung bean soup, various fruit juices.

When Wen Yao had a new idea, he asked them all to rest, while he rested directly on the boat, and Ye Chu stayed. He was happy for his family when he heard that Wen Yao had made so much money in one night, but when he thought of the empty The treasury sighed again.

While thinking about things, Wen Yao didn't forget to pay attention to Ye Chu. Seeing the complicated eyes in his eyes, he thought for a while and said, "This is our money. We made so much in one night. Are you happy?"

"Happy." Ye Chu looked at him and praised him bluntly: "You are very smart."

"Ziyu is also very good." Wen Yao approached him, wrapping his arms around his arm, "My dear, this alone is not enough. Now that the national treasury is scarce, what we can do is to earn more and save more, and wait until we need it." When you use it, use it where it should be used, such as the previous flood, the victims have not yet settled down."

"I just thought, go to disaster relief in our name, and see what the people from the household department say."

"Yao'er..." Ye Chu said softly, holding him in his arms.

Why are you so gentle all of a sudden?Wen Yao blushed at the word "Yao'er". She didn't feel nauseous, but she was a little embarrassed.

"When I open a restaurant in the neighboring county government, my income will be several times higher than it is now." Wen Yao was a little complacent, and Ye Chu smiled softly at him. In his opinion, the boy can achieve anything he wants.

"Let's, let's sleep first. Tomorrow I have to plan a new restaurant, where it will be opened, and I will probably leave Beijing for a while."

Ye Chu didn't stop, just said: "Take Zhou Li and Luo Feng away."

Knowing that the man cared about her, Wen Yao readily accepted, "Okay."

One tael of silver is exchanged for soft sister coins, ranging from six hundred to eight hundred, and 3000 taels is 180 million, or 240 million.

Unexpectedly, he could make so much money in one night, Wen Yao was happy in his dream.

Wen Yao got up early in the morning, and Ye Chu woke up as soon as he moved. He said apologetically, "I'm sorry to wake you up."

"You don't need to apologize to me, Yaoyao—" He hooked Wen Yao's neck, pulled him closer, raised his head and planted a light kiss on his forehead.

Wen Yao bent his eyes, "Okay, I won't be polite to you anymore, get up first, I'm leaving after dinner."

"Where are you going?"

"Tong County, that's the closest to the capital." Wen Yao kissed him on the cheek, then got up to get dressed.

Ye Chu didn't let anyone wait on him, the two quickly packed up, went ashore, went to the shop to have breakfast, and mentioned about opening a restaurant in Tong County by the way.

Zhou Yunmao then recommended himself: "Master laughing, the villain also went to Tong County with the former owner in the early years, why not let the villain follow the little master this time."

"Alright, there's someone I know well, it's convenient to be away."

Zhou Yun smiled, rubbed his hands together and said, "Don't worry, little master, you won't be disadvantaged if you have villains around."

Wen Yao also felt that it was good for him to follow, after all, Zhou Yun was more tactful than him.

He also handles some things more thoughtfully than he thinks.

After that, Wen Yao talked about the things that need to be paid attention to during this period, and the ingredients that will be used next month. Some of them are prepared by Shun'an and others, and others can only be prepared by Li Quan.

Wen Yao took 500 taels and put it on his body. Zhou Yun and Zhou Li went with him this time. Zhou Yun changed his clothes and waited on the first floor.

Chang San also wanted to follow, but when Wen Yao went downstairs, he stood aside, but Wen Yao shook his head, "You stay in the store."

"No! Young Master, I have to protect you." Chang San said firmly with a firm grip.

Wen Yao was amused by his appearance, looked him up and down for a moment, and joked: "With your body, you are not as tall as your family and master, how can you protect me?"

Then, she winked at him, "Besides, the store needs you."

Chang San couldn't understand what Wen Yao meant at first, and wanted to say something more, when a man in a dark blue gown came in, his footsteps were hasty, without making a sound, he came straight to them, without kneeling to Ye Chu Down, just nodding with respect.

Then he turned his head to Wen Yao, clasped his fists and said, "Under Luofeng."

Wen Yao nodded slightly, not intending to introduce them, but only said to set off with them.

Everyone subconsciously thought that this person was found by Master Ye.

On the contrary, Zhou Yun saw that people were different, and couldn't help sighing secretly that he was with the right master.

Zhou Yun was just right, and honestly followed Wen Yao out of the restaurant. Shun'an looked at Wen Yao in front of the carriage, and then turned his head to peek at the emperor. It really exists.

In an instant, a string broke in his heart, and he finally understood what a master means to the emperor, which is definitely not something that can be achieved by mere favor.

At this moment, Wen Yao turned his head and looked in Ye Chu's direction. The two eyes met. Wen Yao's ears were reddened by his fiery gaze. Holding back his embarrassment, he said very seriously: "I will be back soon." .”

"I'm waiting for you."

Wen Yao's heart trembled, the words "I'll wait for you" lingered in his heart for a long time like magic, and even the softest part of his heart was completely soft.

Feeling warm in his heart, Wen Yao was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave, so he quickly got into the carriage and said to the three people standing outside: "Let's go."

Zhou Yun responded, and naturally looked at Luo Feng and Zhou Li, following their opinions, "I'm driving, how do you two get there?"

"I'll drive with you." Zhou Li said.

Luo Feng's standing posture remained unchanged, his figure was tall and straight, he said indifferently: "I will follow behind you, don't worry about me."

"Okay, then we're on our way." He nodded to the people at the door and galloped forward with a whip.

He can probably confirm Luo Feng's identity.

The other party hadn't appeared since they left the city, but he knew that this person must have followed, so he had to guess Ye Ye's identity. What kind of person can find a top expert to escort the little master?

It's not that he didn't think that the other party was a member of the martial arts world, but he quickly extinguished this spark. The reason is very simple. Ye Chu doesn't have that kind of quack aura in him. It is impossible for a human being to appear noble and relegate everyone to the bottom of the valley. When he sees him, he can't help but want to kneel down and salute.

Wen Yao didn't know what he was thinking, and waited for the carriage to rush out of the capital, he opened the window curtain and stared into the distance.

Occasionally, a few young men on horseback ran by on the official road. They were wearing cotton and linen gowns, and they were not from rich families, nor did they look like servants of rich families.

Wen Yao propped his jaw and thought for a while, but he didn't think about it and simply ate snacks without thinking about it.

On the other hand, Zhou Yun, who was riding the horse outside, looked at the men passing by vigilantly.

He couldn't tell what these people were wearing, but it gave him a bad feeling.

He glanced at Zhou Li beside him, seeing that his face remained unchanged, he leaned closer, and asked in a low voice, "Do you think the group of people passing by just now are a little strange?"

"Why is it strange?" Zhou Li asked, in fact, he was keenly aware of the unusualness of those people.

"That group of people just now always felt weird. They didn't look like young masters from rich people or servants, but rather—" Zhou Yun kept the words in his mouth and didn't say them for a while.

However, during a pause, Zhou Li answered, "It looks like someone who is running the rivers and lakes instead?"

Glancing at him, he continued, "Or a horse thief."

Zhou Yun's eyes widened in an instant. How long did it take for them to come out? Could it be that they were targeted by horse thieves?

The little master carried hundreds of taels of silver with him, but let alone this, he was afraid that those horse thieves would hurt the little master.

With just one look, Zhou Li had already seen his worry, and said a little relief, "Don't worry, they can't hurt the little master."

The group of horse thieves consisted of seven or eight people, it's not clear how skillful they are, but he should be able to resist for a period of time, by then the laughing master has already fled away.

And there is Luo Feng following him, so don't worry, he only met Luo Feng a few times, and every time he glanced at him in a hurry, no one formally greeted him.

There are many rumors about the other party. Luo Feng, as the emperor's secret guard, followed the emperor for five or six years.

At that time, the emperor was young and his kung fu had not yet perfected, so the late emperor found Luo Feng for him.

No one knew about Luo Feng's life experience, only that he kept a low profile and would not show up unless summoned by the emperor.

He was thinking like this, but he didn't know that Zhou Yun had already thought of going to another floor.

After Wen Yao ate the pastry, thinking of the two Tuesdays who were outside in the cold, he mixed some warm water with a bamboo tube and handed it out, "It's cold, drink some."

"Thank you, little master." Zhou Yun took over.

"See if there is a tea shed in front, if so, feed the horses some hay and some hot tea."

"The master wants to eat
