I sell hot pot in Dasong [farming]

Si Nan pasted three characters on his forehead - little boy!

The last time I went to Hejian Mansion, he was the leader of that small group, he had to worry about everything, and he did everything by himself, taking care of everyone and making arrangements clearly like a big patriarch.

This time, with Tang Xuan, he was instantly downgraded to a small salted fish.

Tang Xuan is too capable!

On the road, all the food, supplies, and accommodations were arranged. Even when to leave, and which post station to stay on which day was calculated very accurately. Now, where you can catch hares has been taken into consideration.

It's like a super brain!

When we arrived in Luoyang, the shops were all arranged. From the street conditions to the interior layout, it was exactly what Si Nan wanted.

Si Nan didn't have to do anything except raise his tender face and look at Tang Xuan adoringly.

There is no doubt that he is a real boy.

Taking advantage of people's inattention, Si Xiaobai hooked up his man and gave a sip to express his gratitude.

Tang Xuan evoked a slight smile.

Worth it.

He knew right away that he was right by looking for the shop in Yutang Lane.

In fact, this store is even better than the main store in Yutang Lane.It is located in the most prosperous street in Luoyang, Xijing, facing the street, with three floors, dozens of private rooms, and a small courtyard behind, with flowers, trees, verandahs and thatched sheds. The place is not big, but very exquisite.

Further back is the backyard where people live. There are three main rooms and left and right wing rooms, where the people they brought just happened to live in.

Die Lianhua chose the westernmost room of the main room. Although the lighting is not good, it is secluded enough. There is a shelter in front of it, just to avoid the prying eyes of the people upstairs.

——Before Sinan came, he didn't intend to bring her with him at all, it was Die Lianhua who cried and wanted to follow her.Years ago, when she heard Zhao Lingxi talk about her experience of going to Hejian Mansion, she was so envious that she wanted to come out to see the world a long time ago.

Sinan couldn't stand the girl crying, so he reluctantly agreed.

In addition to Die Lianhua, there is also a little tail, Wu Zixu.

Wu Zixu said with a straight face that his brother was an official in Luoyang, so he wanted to follow him to open a branch, but Sinan didn't believe a word.

This guy is fascinated by beauty, and he is here to be a licking dog!

Sinan didn't wrong him at all. Along the way, how Tang Xuan greeted and cared for Sinan, so Wu Zixu treated Die Lianhua.

The difference is that Sinan and Tang Xuan are in love with each other, but Wu Zixu is unrequitedly in love with a flower, and is often scolded for fancy tricks.

It also adds a lot of fun.

No, here it is again.

Wu Zixu couldn't live in the main room, he insisted on living in the half room, just to be closer to Die Lianhua!

As a result, Die Lianhua scolded her with her arms akimbo.

Wu Zixu smiled apologetically, and moved in cheekily. The small house a few steps wide was not as big as his firewood house, but this guy was so beautiful that Die Lianhua lost his temper in anger.

Die Lianhua was not indifferent to Wu Zixu, but did not dare.In the final analysis, he was afraid of the Wu family's family rules.

No one in the whole capital knew that the previous head of the Wu family almost ruined the family because of his obsession with prostitutes.

Wu Zixu's elder brother, after Wu Zixing ascended the position of Patriarch, the first thing he did was to set a family rule——

The direct descendants of the Wu family are not allowed to have sex with prostitutes, let alone marry prostitutes, otherwise the family law will serve them, and they will be expelled from the house after serving them.

Wu Zixu is a proper brother-in-law, and he didn't dare to resist his brother at all, so Die Lianhua didn't have any expectations for him from the beginning.

The two of them just chased each other, fought and fought, like children playing house.

Si Nan watched the excitement for a while, then was dragged to the main house by Tang Xuan.

Seeing the furnishings in the room, Si Nan was speechless for a long while—if he didn't know clearly that this was Luoyang, he would have thought he had returned to the small courtyard of Si's family!

The furnishings of this room, including the position of the bed and the color of the window screens, are exactly the same as the room he used to live in!

"I was afraid that you would not sleep well, so I asked someone to move the bed and table from Chatang Lane."

Simon:! ! !

He originally thought it was just like, but he didn't expect it to be!

From Bianjing to Luoyang, not from Chatang Lane to the Prince's Mansion, just... moved here?

That's a bed, not a toy!

He hadn't slept in this bed since it was put on the kang, but it had been kept in the house all the time, and he wasn't willing to move it out.Because this was the first time he and Tang Xuan shared a bed together, which was a special existence for Sinan.

but!

No matter how special it is, it will come to an end, what Sinan can do is to let him "enjoy his old age peacefully" and slowly collect ashes.

Tang Xuan... actually moved it all the way from Bianjing to Luoyang.

At this moment, Sinan suddenly had a deeper understanding of his man's overbearing attributes.

Really, he had a premonition that he might not be able to be a big general in this life. Being pampered by this guy, he might just be a badass...

Si Xiaobailian Nan spent three days training the hidden piles, preparing ingredients, doing publicity, and then opened.

Since you want to attract the attention of the people in the dark, you should simply make a high profile to the end, the gongs and drums are beating, the lion is dancing, the snacks and preserved fruits are being given away, and the membership card has a big discount for jumping off the building!

Si Nan is now the president of Bianjing Wuwei Club, and he greeted Luoyang before coming here.

At this time, his good karma was revealed.

When Bianjing held large and small competitions, people from Xijing passed by. Regardless of their status, whether they had a backstage or not, Sinan would receive them warmly and thoughtfully, and would try to help as much as he could. Joe, have someone ask three times and four times.

This time, when he came to Luoyang City, those who had been favored by him, admired him as a human being, and respected and worshiped him all came to join him with gifts.

On the first day of trial operation, all dishes are discounted by 60%, snacks and juices are delivered for free, and elderly people over [-] years old enter the store, no matter what they order, they only charge one penny.

The premise is that the dishes on the table must be finished, and they cannot be wasted or packed.

Now there is no need to bother with publicity, the common people spread the word one by one, and in half a day everyone in Luoyang knows that there is a hot pot restaurant in Zhuque Street, and the elderly over 60 can eat for a penny!

The filial sons and virtuous grandchildren brought their old people here, and they were mentally prepared to be cheated and slaughtered, but they didn't expect it to be true!

My old man ate a plate full of hot-boiled mutton and two big bowls of red dates and pig's feet soup. The store not only didn't dislike it, but also brought a plate of sweet and glutinous brown sugar glutinous rice cakes!

Whenever there are old people coming, Sinan will entertain them personally, or say a few auspicious words, or pack one or two small snacks, which can always make the old people happy.

The diners couldn't help but worry for him. After a day, they won't lose money, right?

In fact, there are very few people who live long in this era, and there are not many people over 60 years old in the whole city. Sinan can afford it.

Besides, the vast majority of people are still very face-conscious, they bring the elderly over to eat hot pot, and the elderly’s meals are free, but they themselves are embarrassed, and they will subconsciously order more.

There are also some old people from poor families, or even homeless people. Even if they can't even get a penny, Sinan will not drive them out. There is always a pot of hot soup and a few dishes of fresh meat.

For a while, the common people praised him.

On the first day of opening, Sinan settled the bill, and unexpectedly found out that he didn't pay any compensation, and even made some money.

laugh!

It's kind of embarrassing.

Luoyang is such a great place!

Luoyang people are really straight!

At the same time, the people in Luoyang were also discussing, the hot pot is really delicious, and Si Xiaodong's family has a kind heart!

The next day, the president of Xijing Wuwei Club came in person, had a hot pot meal out of his own pocket, and felt good after eating, so he showed his identity and left a calligraphy before leaving.

It was an old man with a gray beard, thin, serious and old-fashioned, but his background was not small.He used to be an imperial cook in the palace, served two generations of monarchs, and returned to his hometown in Luoyang when he was old.

His appearance is a living sign, and now, everyone in and out of the industry knows that the newly opened hot pot restaurant has won the approval of the old man, and it has completely established itself in Luoyang City.

After a ten-day period, Tang Xuan didn't spend a cent of the money he prepared, and earned back two boxes!

In the dead of night, the underdogs disguised as shop assistants faded away from their smiling faces during the day, and watched Sinan counting the money in a daze.

It is worthy of being the little God of Wealth in Bianjing...

Si Xiaodong's family can really make money...

One day in the future when I retire from the Imperial City Division, it would be nice to open a shop with him...

Speaking of Imperial City Division...

Didn't they come to investigate the case?

Why run wildly on the road of making money and never return?

Sinan was also worried, "Who told me that investigating a case requires hiring people, going up and down, and spending a lot of money?"

Tang Xuan coughed lightly: "It's me."

Si Nan put his hand into the pile of copper coins and stirred them, "Who told me that as long as there is a big publicity, thieves will naturally come to the door?"

Tang Xuan pursed his lips, "It's me too."

As a result, the case didn't progress, and everyone was busy making money!

Si Nan raised his eyebrows, "My lord, you're not very good at it!"

Tang Xuan's tone was light: "I can't?"

The hidden piles exchanged a look, and retreated knowingly.

Wu Zixu originally wanted to watch a joke, but was pulled away by Die Lianhua.

To be exact, it wasn't La, so Die Lianhua swept him lightly with a handkerchief, and the boy followed him with a smirk on his face, as if he had been poisoned by Ecstasy.

There were only the couple left in the house.

Sinan raised his chin provocatively, "Aren't you happy?"

Tang Xuan hooked his waist, lowered his head, and gave him a long kiss, "Don't worry, for the safety of father-in-law and mother-in-law, 'waiting for the rabbit' is the safest way."

The corner of Sinan's mouth couldn't help but rise.

For the sake of the "father-in-law and mother-in-law", just wait for the rabbit!

The next day, the "rabbit" didn't wait, and Wu Zixing came.

Wu Zixing went out of the house for some errands a few days ago and just came back.As soon as he came back, he heard that Tang Xuan had come to Luoyang, and then he found that his stupid younger brother was also here, so he rushed to the door.

Wu Zixing and Tang Xuan seemed to be the same kind of people, tall and heroic, with handsome but cold faces, if it was not necessary, otherwise they would not say a word, and when there was a "necessary", their eloquence was better than anyone else.

Tang Xuan's "necessary" is Sinan, and Wu Zixing's "necessary" is his younger brother.

A quarter of an hour ago, Wu Zixu was laughing and chatting with the guests, but after a while, he was scolded by his brother so that he got under the table.

It's a real drill.

He hugged his legs and rolled himself into a ball, and refused to come out even if he said nothing.

Wu Zixing took him out and drove him back to Bianjing.

Wu Zixu refused, hid behind Sinan, and yelled at his brother cowardly: "I'm not here to play, I'm serious about opening a shop, if you don't believe me, ask Brother Nan if I have come up with many useful ideas?"

Si Nan smiled, but said nothing.

It is not appropriate for him to help anyone when brothers are fighting.

Wu Zixu snorted, feeling that he was unreliable, so he bravely hid behind Tang Xuan.

Wu Zixing was single-handedly picked up by Tang Xuan, and now he is Luoyang county lieutenant, a proper second-in-command, he can be transferred back to the capital when he has enough qualifications, facing Tang Xuan, he has always been respectful.

Wu Zixu saw this right, and provocatively said: "I came here with the county king, and now I am working for the county king, if you have the ability, you can tell the county king!"

Wu Zixing pursed his lips, feeling a headache.

Sinan smiled and smoothed things over: "You just arrived in Luoyang, haven't you eaten yet? It just so happens that the shop is closed for half a day today, so I'll ask someone to make some side dishes to catch you."

Wu Zixing was embarrassed to bother him, and wanted to refuse, Tang Xuan said: "I have an errand, do you want to accept it?"

Wu Zixing's complexion changed, "Your Majesty just asks."

Tang Xuan nodded, and took him to the hut to talk.

Wu Zixu thought he had escaped a catastrophe, so he was so loud that he ran to Die Lianhua to show courteousness, and then ran to the back kitchen to make trouble for Sinan, like a naughty child.

Because there is a brother.

Die Lianhua knew Wu Zixing's reason for coming, and didn't want to cause trouble between the brothers, so she didn't show up during the meal.

But Wu Zixu was an idiot, he didn't understand her kindness, and delivered the food to her room in front of Wu Zixing.

Die Lianhua was so angry that he beat him out.

When Wu Zixing was leaving, he happened to meet Die Lianhua coming down the stairs, and both of them were taken aback for a moment.

Die Lianhua bowed her knees, neither fawning nor arrogant.

Wu Zixing nodded expressionlessly, without contempt, but definitely not in agreement, at least not with his attitude towards his future sister-in-law.

Wu Zi was listless and sighed all day long.

Two days later, there was still no movement.

Si Nan didn't want to sit on the sidelines anymore, so he decided to go for a walk, and offered the person who delivered the note a chance to "strike up a conversation".

So, instead of letting Tang Xuan follow, he carried two baskets full of big meat buns to the Salesian Bureau in the east of Luoyang City.

This is the largest sales office in Luoyang City, and all the children under the age of eight are adopted in it. It is said that there are dozens of them living in a large courtyard abandoned by the government.

Sinan originally thought that the children's living environment would not be very good, but he did not expect that the huge courtyard was kept very clean, without the dirt and smell of the usual shantang, and the children were well dressed, although there were patches, at least they were clean and tidy.

The women in charge of taking care of the children all looked gentle and kind, which left a good impression on Sinan.

This made him temporarily change his mind, and besides the buns, he also donated ten pennies.The manager didn't become flattered just because he donated money, which made Sinan feel more at ease.

He took a bun and sat among the children, chatting while eating.

There may be few adults outside who talk to them as cordially as Sinan, and take them to play games. The children are very curious about Sinan, and they chat with him sentence by sentence.

From the children's topic, Si Nan grasped a strange message.

In other sales offices, the children are afraid of growing up, which means they will be kicked out, have no place to live, and no food to eat; the children here are different, they all look forward to growing up to eight years old, and then "going outside" .

Si Nan asked with a smile: "If you go outside, you will have to work hard to earn money to support yourself. Have you thought about what to do?"

"Don't think about it. As long as you eat more and grow stronger, you will be picked away." The children's tone was affirmative.

Growing strong and being picked away?

Going to the pier to do some work?

Si Nan asked again, but the children refused to speak. They kept their mouths tightly shut and shook their heads with a smile.

Si Nan didn't pay much attention to it, he just took it as the manager's words to coax them, making them less afraid of being kicked out.

Thinking about it this way, I feel that this steward is quite kind. He not only takes good care of the children, but also protects their young hearts.

After coming out of the Salesian Bureau, Si Nan wandered all over the street, specially going to remote places, just to lure the other party out.

However, until it got dark, Sinan's legs were tired from walking, and no one came out to block the way, even waiting for a note.

Si Nan was not reconciled and wanted to hang around again.

Tang Xuan appeared from the dark and carried him home.

Si Nan lay softly on his back, his tone could not hide his disappointment: "Could it be that they knew you were protecting me in secret, so they didn't dare to show up? Otherwise, don't follow me tomorrow, I'll try again..."

Tang Xuan lifted the person up, and said in a deep voice: "No, they will move soon."

Sinan suddenly regained his energy, "Did you do something wrong?"

Tang Xuan hummed without denying it.

Si Nan hugged his neck and said, "I believe you again."

Tang Xuan smiled.

This time, he will not be disappointed again.

Tang Xuan's conjecture was correct, since someone had gone to great lengths to lure them over, they wouldn't have been shrinking like this all the time.He released a small bait, and the man took the bait.

It is a very clichéd saying that "the king has no way, and the sky warns".

This year has indeed been full of disasters.

Entering the first month, spring has already begun, but there is continuous rain and snow in the east and west capitals, the cold epidemic breaks out, and the farmland is devastated.

In April, there was another hailstorm, and the corn and melons, which had already hung ears, were almost useless.

At this time, some people had already secretly spread rumors that "the officials acted inappropriately, and the heavens brought disasters to the people".

Fortunately, the imperial court acted quickly and distributed money and food to the people affected by the disaster. The officials dismissed the palace people twice, frugal and restrained themselves, and this stopped the rumors.

Now it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the harvest season, when suddenly a thunderstorm fell in the middle of the night, and tens of thousands of hectares of farmland around Luoyang were burned to ashes by the "sky fire".

For a while, rumors resurfaced, pointing out that the official family was "cowardly and incompetent without heirs", so the heavens repeatedly warned, "let someone with great fortune take their place."

At this point, the purpose is obvious.

But the common people follow this trick, especially those farmers whose farmland has been destroyed and who are only waiting for this season's harvest to support their families. Without accident, they are used by others to make troubles.

When the news reached Bianjing City, the officials were so anxious that they vomited a mouthful of blood on the hall.

For a time, the ruling and opposition parties were in an uproar.

Even Tang Xuan didn't expect that the other party was such a big hand when he came up.

It seems that this is going to be desperate.
