I sell hot pot in Dasong [farming]

Si Nan stretched out his face and lied to kiss him.

He knew Tang Xuan wouldn't kiss, he was just joking.

Tang Xuan would not go along with this playful mentality, there was no kiss, just a gentle pinch.

Si Nan turned his head and made a small tooth mark on his wrist.

This is on the street!

Not my own Kangtou!

With his head stuck, the locust tree rode a little slower, and even slower, and pulled a long distance away from them wisely.

In the cart, the cub covered Erdou's eyes, Erdou covered Dongzao's, Dongzao covered the small wood, and then there were small steamed buns, small eggplants, and puppies, one after another.

Brother Huaishu said that when Brother Master and the Duke of the County are together, he closes his eyes and treats himself as blind.

Huaishu sighed worriedly, touched his chest, and suddenly touched the small stone.

Yu Sanniang wrapped the note on a stone and threw it into the small courtyard of the Si family, just in time to be caught by the locust tree.

Originally, he wanted to tell Sinan after leaving the door, but he almost forgot when he met Tang Xuan at the entrance of the alley.

Huaishu didn't care about pretending to be blind, kicked hard twice, and caught up with Sinan, "Master, the little lady of the Yu family threw it into our yard."

He gave the note to Sinan. As for the little stone... It was supposed to be thrown away, but after another look, it was smooth and nice, and it was mysteriously put back into his arms.

Si Nan asked, "What did you write?"

Huai Shu blushed, "I only know two characters..."

Si Nan laughed, "Don't wait until next month, go to the school after the ten-day vacation."

Huai Shu was in a hurry, "What should I do in the store? I won't be able to recruit anyone for a while!"

Si Nan clicked his tongue, "Your brother, can I really wait until the sheep have run away before mending the sheepfold? Don't worry, I've found them early."

Wuyoudong was suppressed, and many abducted children were rescued. Some found their families, and some were too young when they got lost, so they didn't know where their homes were.

Kaifeng Mansion could only post the notices in nearby counties and wait slowly for family members to find them.Those who are younger are fine, they can live in the shantang, but those who are older than 12 are not accepted in the shantang.

Out of good intentions, Sinan recruited people from Kaifeng Mansion, trained them for ten days, and will be able to start work soon.

"……Oh."

The locust tree responded, feeling a little disappointed.

Si Nan smiled, this kid just has a strong sense of responsibility.

He lowered his head to look at the note, and clicked his tongue: "You said that this person is living a good life, but why is he trying to find death by all means!"

Tang Xuan said lightly: "Then let him die.

"No, no." Sinan put the note away, "Just tell him a story."

Huaishu: "What story?"

Si Nan smiled, "Lifting a rock to shoot myself in the foot."

Locust tree: ...

This is the story?

Still worried, "Then what Xiaoni said, is it accurate?"

"It's sure." Sinan affirmed, "I am very familiar with Sanniang's handwriting." What's more, this child was taught by Yue Linglong, and his character is not bad.

Only then did the locust tree feel at ease, patted the small stone on his chest, and pedaled the car slowly.

From Chatang Lane to Ruoshui Academy, the distance is not short.

Fortunately, the family arrived before they knew it while they were talking.

They went out of the city from the Xinsong Gate, and from a distance, they saw many people surrounding the gate of Ruoshui Academy. There were donkey carts, mule carts, and large carriages. The parents of men and women were dressed more decently than the other, and many of them were wearing official uniforms. heap.

Ruoshui Academy has always been upright, don't care about the big officials and small ones, how much money there is and how little it is, they have to wait outside in order to pick up their children.

The arrival of the Si family seemed to create a strange whirlwind, and everyone's eyes were focused on them.

The little speeding car bestowed by the government!

The only one in Bianjing City!

Look at Simon again.

A person who seemed to appear out of nowhere became a household name in just two months.

Gathering refugees, assisting the Imperial City Division to suppress bandits, opening the No. [-] hot pot restaurant in the Song Dynasty, forming a takeaway team, and winning awards from the officials... All of these events, which are not the major events of Guangzong's glory, were all concentrated on him. body.

Didn't you see it?

Even King Yan, who has always been awe-inspiring and unapproachable, took the initiative to befriend him!

The originally noisy venue suddenly fell silent because of their arrival.

Si Nan didn't care, stretched his neck to look for his cub.

After all, he was his own brother. Among the blue and white little peas, he recognized the small figure with a thick head and a thick head at a glance.

I haven't seen him for a few days, but the little guy seems to be taller again, his arms and legs look longer, and he looks a bit thinner.

He was also calm, standing among a group of cute and soft classmates, he was the only one with a sullen little face, like a little adult.

When saluting to Mr., it is well-behaved, without any arrogance or perfunctory.

Si Nan was both relieved and distressed, he just wanted to cook a big meal when he went back, and make up for him.

I have no chance to have a child, but I have experienced the feeling of being both a father and a mother.

Not bad.

Someone patted Erlang on the shoulder, reminding him that his family had arrived.

Erlang swished his little head, steady, cold, how could there be any more?In a second, he turned into a mischievous ghost, carrying a backpack, riding a suitcase, and flew to Sinan in front of him.

"Brother smelly, you are here!"

Si Nan grinned, and flicked his brains, "Call me."

"Please greet the king of the county." The little guy saluted respectfully.

If you look carefully, the quirky little eyes have already drifted into the trunk of the car.

Looking at those eyes that were exactly the same as Sinan's, Tang Xuan's eyes softened, "Forget it."

"Xie Junwang." Erlang got up quickly, jumped up, and threw himself among the children.

The children were very close to him, one pinched their cheeks, the other tugged their ears, laughing and making noise.

A group of young gentlemen walked up not far away, greeted Si Nan in a polite manner, and then started talking in a hurry——

"Brother Si, the food you cook is so delicious, I eat two big bowls every time!"

"I heard that your family has opened a hot pot restaurant. It's delicious! My mother said that she would take me there after a ten-day vacation, but she didn't even get a seat."

"Brother Si, Erlang's schoolbag is good, and the suitcase is also good. Where did you buy it? I want my mother to buy one for me too!"

"I really envy Erlang. Not only can he eat delicious hot pots anytime, ride a powerful flying car, but also have fun box rides!"

"..."

Si Nan patiently answered one by one, and also promised that when Erlang celebrated his birthday, he would invite them to the store for dinner and unlimited fruit smoothies.

The young gentlemen cheered happily.

Not far away, the parents smiled gratifiedly, and they seemed to have no objection to their children getting close to Erlang.

Simon smiled.

Now there is no need to ask, Erlang is probably doing well in the academy, and the students did not discriminate against him because he runs a small shop, but formed a group to envy him.

Si Nan was very proud, and bumped Tang Xuan's shoulder, "Tell me, am I quite competent as an older brother?"

"Very, special, quite competent." Tang Xuan said.

Si Nan cut out, "Have you paid the tuition fee, so you can talk like me?"

Tang Xuan pursed his lips, his gaze lightly caressing his face.

Si Nan suddenly remembered how he lied to his kiss with his face crooked.

Cough, I suddenly feel so lost... shameful.

He cleared his throat, and changed the subject abruptly: "Then what, Erlang finally took a ten-day vacation. Would you like to take the initiative and invite us to Fengyilou for a big meal?"

"Okay." Tang Xuan nodded.

"Then say it again."

Tang Xuan curled his lips, "Erlang is closed for ten days, and the store is also closed. I invite you to the Fengyi Tower for a banquet, okay?"

Sinan shook his head, "Let me think about it!"

"Kids, please fasten your seat belts."

The sound is pleasant, as if about to fly.

"'Department' is good!"

The children responded in unison, holding hands and sitting obediently in a circle.

"Set off--"

"come on--"

The crisp and cheerful voice seemed to fly to every corner with wings.Gentlemen, parents, and students were all infected and became happy and active.

In front of the academy gate, the plaque of "Superior Kindness is like Water" is gilded with a layer of gold by the setting sun.

***

Fengyilou is one of the best restaurants in Bianjing City. It has been passed down for hundreds of years only by word of mouth and has a steady stream of customers.

There is no dine-in in Fengyi Building, there are private rooms from the first floor, each private room has two doors, one is connected to the corridor, and the other leads to the courtyard outside.

Each small courtyard is independent, with octagonal pavilions, seasonal flowers and trees planted, long lattice windows opened, and the waterside pavilions facing the river outside, with different scenery in four seasons.

Sinan walked all the way, as if he had entered an antique garden, the kind that you can only see if you buy a ticket.

Ordinary people with money can't even book a private room. When Tang Xuan came, he didn't need to open his mouth, someone bumped up to greet them and led them to the third floor.

The third floor is an octagonal large room with a simple layout and a wide view. There are huge lattice windows in the east, west, north, south, and Bianjing, Zhouqiao, and Yujie.

Si Nan entered the door, like a very lively little sparrow who had never seen the world, fluttering to one side and then to the other.

"Have you been here often before?"

"I can see you from below!"

"Have you seen me?"

"I'm on the other side of the state bridge, next to the steamed stuffed bun stand!"

"I saw it."

Watch it every day.

Tang Xuan pulled him to sit down, "Order first."

"Okay." Sinan opened the menu and winked at the children, "Today's theme is - only order the most expensive, not the most correct, and let go of the rich!"

The children are confused from the moment they enter the door.

Two months ago, if someone told them that they had a chance to enter Fengyi Building in this life, they would definitely think that the other party was talking nonsense.

Today, they came in.

Not only came in, but also ate the most expensive dishes in the best private room.

It's just... like a dream.

Si Nan put the menu cards on the table and asked them to order by themselves.

The children looked at this and that, and dared not do anything.

Erlang took the lead, "I want this, Sixi Maruko!"

Huai Shu also ordered one, the word is relatively simple, he just recognized it, "Zhupi Douzuier."

Only then did the rest of the boys carefully flip through the menus. At first they were timid, but then they discussed boldly, and finally happily chose the dishes they liked.

——Although I don’t know him at all.

Just such a small action gave them a great sense of satisfaction and a little bit of germinated self-confidence.

The shop waiter went out, and Sinan pulled Tang Xuan to make a small talk: "We came up from the first floor just now, did you notice that his house actually uses ice to cool down!"

Tang Xuan nodded slightly.

Fengyi Building has an independent cellar, and every year when the county prince's mansion collects ice, it will be picked for them by the way.

Speaking of which, the county palace probably has more ice than the palace.Those uncles and uncles have nothing to do in the winter. They go to the north to collect ice from time to time. In summer, they can't run out and have to send it to the palace.

However, this year is good, the hot pot restaurant consumes a lot, and it is estimated that it can be used up.

Si Nan leaned close to his ear, secretly calculating: "Tell me, should I negotiate a deal with their boss?"

Tang Xuan raised his eyebrows, "What do you want to talk about?"

"Fan! You have seen how useful the fans in our store are, right? I asked Mu Mu to make another batch. Then we will put two in our house, and put two in your house, and then give it to the official. Send a few to the family, and sell the rest for money..."

Si Nan blinked, and said in a low voice: "The cost of a fan is only a few tens of pennies, and Brother Wood's manual cost is more expensive. Counting five hundred pennies, even if we sell it for the same amount of money, we can still earn four hundred pennies. Upstairs Fengyi For the third floor, why don’t you have to buy ten or twenty units?”

He gave a smirk, "It seems that this owner has been taken advantage of. The big ice cubes that have a price but no market are actually used to cool down. Why don't we raise the price and ask him for two to three thousand guan, what do you think?"

Tang Xuan hooked his lips, "I think it's okay."

"Then do it!" Sinan snapped his fingers.

The waiter outside immediately bowed in, first bowed to Tang Xuan, and then asked, "What's your order, Mr. Lang?"

Si Nan said politely: "Second brother, please, if it's convenient, please come over to your shopkeeper."

The little second brother was respectful on the face, but complained silently in his heart: This great god is in charge, even if it is inconvenient, the shopkeeper has to fly over.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper "flyed" over after a while.He is a kind-hearted middle-aged man, well-dressed, with an extraordinary bearing, he is not an ordinary person at first glance.

Si Nan asked him to sit down and poured a cup of tea.

The shopkeeper didn't sit down, but took the tea with both hands and didn't drink it.

Sinan didn't force it, and said with a smile: "Please come here, I want to discuss a deal with you, can the shopkeeper make the decision?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Tang Xuan, and said: "Most of the time, the subordinates make decisions, and occasionally they can't make decisions."

Si Nan smiled, "What about now?"

"No."

"When is it convenient, can you call someone who is in charge?"

"It's convenient now."

Sinan raised his eyebrows, "Then call."

The shopkeeper bowed, "It's already here."

Simon:? ? ?

Bu froze his head and looked around.

Ghost?

Tang Xuan pursed his smile, pressed his fingers on the top of his head, letting him face himself.

Simon:! ! !

Dare he have been calculating for a long time just now, and he was all heard by the "bad head"? !
