Xiaoyao Nongjiazi

The Zhong family had a large population, and now it was lunch break, so Zhong Qingran and the others could be quiet. Seeing that it was almost half the afternoon, Zhong Qingzhu and Zhong Qingshu left after eating.He knew best about his family's situation, so he didn't try to keep her.

After dinner, Mr. Zhong called his three sons who were at home, the eldest, the second and the fourth, and went straight to the room, which attracted several daughter-in-laws to stop and refused to leave, especially the third daughter-in-law Zhang and the fifth daughter-in-law Li who were not at home. Shi, looked around even more, his mind was not on the work at hand, but with Tong Shi as the door god, he couldn't get close and pretend to pass by.

Zhong Qingran was a little speechless, he was asked to stand by the window twice, he really regarded him as the window guard.

Zhong Zhengyi glanced at the third nephew who was in the shape of a wallflower, but said nothing.

When the three brothers didn't know how to speak, Mr. Zhong said: "You all have eaten the red crayfish, if you have any opinions, just say it, if you don't have any opinions, then I will make the decision."

"Father, everything is at your command."

Zhong Zhengren didn't hesitate, and directly expressed his opinion, which made Mr. Zhong's forehead hurt.This eldest son is too upright, let him think of a way to deal with it, it's better to let him come the next day.Mr. Zhong has nowhere to say that this family will be handed over to the eldest son in the future, and his appearance really makes him a little worried. Fortunately, he is obedient, which can be regarded as consolation.

"Boss thinks so, what about you two?"

"Father, this business must be handed over to the clan and get some money, or our family will go it alone, then the power of the clan will not be easy to borrow, and we will have to handle it by ourselves. What does the red lobster look like? Everyone You know, if the taste is so good, you will think that there is a secret recipe in it, it is difficult for us to keep this secret, we might as well sell it to the restaurant to make some money, and we can sell it privately, so that the long-term flow will not be so envious." Zhong Zhengzhi didn't say much. , but often hit the nail on the head.

Seeing that several people turned their eyes to him, Zhong Zhengyi thought for a while before opening his mouth: "Father, I agree with the fourth brother's idea, so I won't say much about it. How to sell is the key point. If it works well, Red Crawfish If it can be sold for a good price, even Xiaoluo can make a fortune. The third brother is in Hongtai Restaurant, we can't bypass him, this restricts us, Hongtai is likely to make a fuss about this, father, What do you think?"

Mr. Zhong had thought earlier that it would be much more convenient for the third son to work as the second cook in a restaurant, and it would be much more convenient to sell some farm items. Now the disadvantages are showing up. The third son has become a pawn in the hands of the restaurant. Taking care of the third son will inevitably be manipulated by the restaurant Well, if they can't send them a few dollars at will and take Fang Zi away, regardless of the third child, at least they have to think of a way out for him.How to choose, it is really difficult for Mr. Zhong.

Another way is to avoid Pingyang County and resell it to other neighboring counties, but this method is not very good. Instead of selling your own county, you sell it to neighboring counties.Mr. Zhong's thoughts turned, and he was about to pick up the pipe to smoke a couple of puffs, when he saw the third grandson standing in front of the window, he put it down again.

"In this way, let the girls and boys go catch more tomorrow, and take them to Pingyang County to find the third child the day after tomorrow. If they can reach an agreement there, then there is nothing else to do. If we do it ourselves, the Zhong family is not easy to bully, if something happens to us, we can’t do without the family members, if we really watch others taunt and oppress us and ignore it, how can the Zhong family have the face to walk outside?” Mr. Zhong made a final decision.

Seeing that the people were about to leave, Zhong Zhengyi hurriedly said: "Father, who is responsible for this matter, who is in charge, can't make mother tired all the time?"

Mr. Zhong glanced at him: "Leave this for now, and wait until the prescription is sold."

The three brothers came out in a file, and were warmly welcomed back to the house by their own daughter-in-law. Only the grandfather and grandson were left in the upper room.

"Grandpa, I'm going to the county seat the day after tomorrow."

Stared at by Zhong Qingran's starry black eyes, Mr. Zhong was quickly defeated and agreed to him.

It was still daylight, so Mrs. Tong started to make noises, and when Zhong Qingran was called to get up, it was already bright outside.

Sitting on the bullock cart, Zhong Qingran ate the pancakes by himself. He was the only one who got up late and didn't have time for breakfast. It's a shame that he had a thick skin, and he would have blushed with embarrassment.In fact, this is no wonder to him. His biological clock is difficult to change at one hour and a half. He has long been used to waking up late. His grandparents are distressed, and no one calls him early. It is obviously impossible for him to do this for the time being.

There were quite a lot of people going to Pingyang County this time, except for Mr. Zhong and Zhong Qingran, Mrs. Tong was the person in charge of the spoon and had to take it with her. I have to bring another son to show justice. Considering that there are only three sons left at home, I simply brought them all together.

Because I brought a lot of things, I didn’t take the waterway. After all, the pier is still some distance away from Pingyang County. It costs money to hire someone, and it takes a lot of effort to carry it. I have an ox cart at home to avoid this worry.

The ox cart swayed and swayed, making people drowsy. Zhong Qingran didn't get enough sleep, and immediately fell asleep on Mr. Zhong's body after eating.

"Qingran, come down, you're here."

Hearing Mr. Zhong's call, Zhong Qingran opened his eyes and looked around curiously, but the result was very disappointing.The place where the bullock cart stops is a small alley, and in front of it is the back door of Hongtai Restaurant. There are not many people in sight, except for the wall or the wall.

Zhong Zhengren chatted with someone on the familiar road, and not long after, Zhong Zhengli walked out from the back door of the restaurant with a smile on his face, saw Mr. and Mrs. Zhong standing behind the door, and hurried forward to greet him.

"Father, mother, if you have anything to do, ask the elder brother and they will take the lead. How can I work hard for you?"

"Go, go over there, I have something to tell you."

Mr. Zhong pulled his third son aside, and talked about the past and the future in a few words. Zhong Zhengli no longer smiled at him, and his expression became solemn. This was related to his future future, and there was no room for carelessness.He tasted each of them, and his frown couldn't help but relax.

"Father, there is a lot to do in this matter. It is still early and the shopkeeper is not busy. It is time to discuss business. Wait a moment, I will go and say hello to the shopkeeper."

Zhong Zhengli filled a small bowl with each, and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

After waiting for half a stick of incense, Zhong Qingran was so bored that Zhong Zhengli reappeared with a smile on his face.

"Father, let's go. I told shopkeeper Zhou, and he promised to see you."

Mr. Zhong asked the fourth child to stay and watch the ox cart, and led the others to follow.

Hongtai restaurant is considered first-class in Pingyang County, if Zhong Zhengli hadn't been working as the second chef there, they wouldn't even have the chance to go in.Even so, Mr. Zhong and the others had no chance to sit in the front hall of the restaurant, where the price of food and drink was beyond their affordability.

In the past, when they brought things to Zhong Zhengli, they mostly walked around the backyard of the restaurant. Where would they have the opportunity to see the grandeur of the front hall, this time it was an eye-opener for them.

Pingyang County is a large county with convenient water and land transportation, so it is much more prosperous than ordinary counties.

Zhong Qingran just came here this time to see the ancient county town, and he is basically not in his turn to talk about business, and he is also very self-aware, and he will never say a word if it is not necessary.Sitting in the private room, relying on his young age, he glanced around, looking at the furnishings in the house.

The old house of the Zhong family has been handed down from the ancestors, and many of the furniture are old. Unfortunately, the family is in decline, and the valuable ones have been sold long ago, and the ones that have been handed down are not very good. Among the common people, it is enough to make them jealous.

Zhong Qingran didn't have much research on furniture and antiques, and the layout of the private room felt very good, but he couldn't comment on the specifics.

After scanning around, Zhong Qingran turned his attention back to the business negotiation between Mr. Zhong and Shopkeeper Zhou.

Shopkeeper Zhou deserves to be the shopkeeper of a large restaurant, not to mention that Zhong Zhengli is the second chef under him, so the Zhong family is naturally inferior to him, and the Zhong family can't deal with him based on his years of experience in the restaurant. From the very beginning, Mr. Zhong and the others were at a disadvantage, not to mention the restraint of a farmer who hadn't seen much of the world.

Mr. Zhong had already expected this point, unless the third child did not work at his house, the situation before him would be difficult to change.He never thought about how much advantage he could get from the shopkeeper Zhou. He adhered to the bottom line set last night, as long as he didn't bully others too much, he decided to sell the prescription.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, I don't need to say anything else, you can give me a real price." Mr. Zhong didn't intend to write ink, and he would definitely not have the upper hand in terms of eloquence.

Shopkeeper Zhou is round and has an amiable face, but he puts a lot of pressure on the Zhong family.He squinted his small eyes, and he had already made up his mind.

The small snail dish is expensive in the way of eating and the usage of bean paste, but in fact it is not very valuable, and it is easy to be imitated by others.Another dish of red lobster, he couldn't taste the secret recipe for a while, but it was a bit worth seeing, but it is best not to drink this dish with wine, which will be greatly reduced.

These are not important, what he is interested in is the method of removing fishy smell, which is the most important thing here.How to set the price, he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

"Why don't we talk about it after Aunt Zhong's fish is on the table?"

Now that Shopkeeper Zhou has said so, how can Mr. Zhong and others say anything else, and there is no sound in the private room for a while.

Mrs. Tong was led into the kitchen. She followed her grandson's instructions and asked the fish cook to turn on two stoves at the same time, one stewed carp in brown sauce and one fish head tofu soup. A taste of ginger juice, after all, her skills are not as good as restaurant chefs, if she does it herself, even if there is ginger juice added, the two phases will cancel each other out, and the taste will be hard to say.

It's not the restaurant's business hours right now, so Chef Wang complained a bit when he was called in temporarily. After tasting the two fish dishes, he felt that the trip was worthwhile, especially the fish soup, which tasted more delicious than ever.He looked at Tong Shi with piercing eyes, if Tong Shi was not so old, he would be ashamed.

Mrs. Tong didn't want to stay here for a long time, so after thanking the stove master, he asked Xiaoer to go to the private room with two portions of fish, leaving Chef Wang staring at the empty stove.
