Chapter 249

Everyone likes that good and evil are rewarded, and Qin Zhiyi is one of them.

In the next few days, Laiwang's enrollment went smoothly.

The master of Wuwei Academy even came to Zhaizi specially to make up a few lessons for Laiwang.

As a result, they were so moved by the exchange that they would spend an extra half an hour every day, and then study in the backyard with a book. As for Dabao and Erni, they practiced martial arts while listening to the sound of reading.

The days passed, and more than half a month passed, and the weather gradually became hotter.

Fortunately, she deliberately stored a lot in the cellar last winter, just to make some cold drinks and desserts when the scorching heat came.

It's just that when she thought that she was pregnant and couldn't drink it, and Fei Chengcheng was far away in the capital and couldn't eat it, the original expectation turned into regret at this time.

But when she thought that if she couldn't eat, she could feed a few little ones and the customers in the store, so she felt a little comforted.

The sincerity restaurant is booming, and the restaurant in Lincheng is also not bad.

At the beginning of the month again, Qin Zhiyi took a carriage to Lincheng, and Mr. He hosted a banquet in person.

But seeing her swollen belly, Mr. He was surprised and said, "Madam, have you eaten too much recently?"

Although Mr. He was a robber before, he could not even catch ordinary officials, but when he said these words, Qin Zhiyi couldn't help laughing.

Before she had time to reply, the little maid beside her had already angrily said: "Master He is just joking, my wife is pregnant, so what is gaining weight? Have you ever seen a person who gained weight only on the stomach and not on other places?" ?”

Mr. He showed embarrassment, clasped his fists with both hands and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, look at my eyes, so I must congratulate my wife."

Qin Zhiyi waved his hand and said, "Since we are partners, we don't need to be so polite. I'm here to check the account books. How is the business of the restaurant recently?"

Mr. He said: "Because there are new products launched, customers like them very much, especially the recent stinky tofu. At night, there are quite a lot of customers asking for it."

Qin Zhiyi nodded, and Mr. He had asked someone to bring the ledger to her.

She flipped through the pages one by one, and felt very relieved to see every account that was carefully memorized.

Finally, he said to Mr. He: "How is the iron basin I mentioned on your side?"

Mr. He said: "You said you want to make a total of forty pots. Now the blacksmith is working overtime, but so far only ten pots have been made, and all forty pots have been finished. I'm afraid it will have to wait until autumn. I don't know where to go." Not in time."

"It's too late. What about the ice you keep in the ice bank in winter? Is it enough?"

Mr. He nodded again and again: "It should be enough. I asked someone to excavate it, and I was frozen. I hid it all in the cellar. I went in and looked at it yesterday. When the door of the cellar was opened, it seemed like it was winter."

"I don't worry about your work."

She heard about closing the ledger, and finally she looked at the ledger. This month, one person can distribute [-] taels of silver.

"I heard that you secretly sent the silver you earned back to the place where you stole it before."

"Hush."

Mr. He lowered his voice and said: "I later figured it out, even if their family is rich, they earned it through hard work, so I thought about sending back the money I earned, but it's a pity that the money I earned was still too little , even after giving away these few months, only a small part was given away."

"It's enough for you to have this kind of heart. Presumably the county master over there heard this, and if you explain it clearly in the future, he can let you go."

As she said this, she saw a shop assistant come over to her and said, "Ma'am, the proprietress of the tofu shop is here."

She knew that it was Liniang who came, after all, she specially invited him from Laicheng.

In just one month, Liniang looked like a different person.

She was still dressed as a woman with her hair tied, but her face was much brighter, and she smiled when she saw her.

"It seems that the business of the tofu shop is good."

Liniang sat down and smiled coquettishly.

"It's pretty good. I learned a lot from Brother Qin. Fried tofu, tofu skin, tofu skin, hard tofu, tender tofu, and dried tofu are all very popular. The burden goes outside to sell tofu in exchange for tofu, but now it seems that there is no need for it.”

Mr. He took the opportunity to say: "You don't know that Liniang is a famous tofu beauty in Lincheng, many people go to buy tofu just to see her. Of course, our tofu beauty is not well-known, and the tofu we make is quite delicious. .”

Qin Zhiyi asked, "Are there enough people?"

Liniang nodded: "I did as you said, I bought two smart little girls from the prostitute, and took them as goddaughters, and asked them to make tofu and sell tofu with me. Watching."

Hearing that everything was normal at Liniang's side, Brother Ping felt relieved.

Then Liniang took out the account book and showed her: "This is last month's account book, please take a look, I will also calculate [-]% later, you look after it, and I will hand over the money to you."

Qin Zhiyi responded, and took away Liniang's account book to look through it. Liniang's beautiful handwriting was still very pleasing to the eye.

After she finished reading it, she was quite surprised to see that there were only sixty taels of silver in two parts.

"So, your tofu shop also earns three hundred taels of silver a month?"

The smile on Liniang's face became stronger: "Yes, it's better to point to the place you pointed out. Yunyang County is small, but Lincheng is as big as three or four Yunyang counties, and the population is much larger, so There are countless tofu sold every day, and now our three mothers cook together, but there is still not enough to sell."

After finishing speaking, she took out her purse again, and took out sixty taels of silver from it and handed it to her: "Now it seems that you only need [-]%, which is a big advantage for me."

She smiled faintly: "This is also what my brother meant. The tofu shop is all left to him. What he wants to do in the future is up to him."

Liniang seemed to be talking to herself: "Brother Qin is really a good person."

Voices were heard not far away, and a few people looked towards the door, and saw Mr. He leading a few people to the restaurant.

Under the leadership of Mr. He, several people went to the private room upstairs. Just when Qin Zhiyi was wondering, a servant came over in a hurry: "Madam, Mr. He said that there are some distinguished guests upstairs and they want to see Mrs. Ma'am, look..."

She took a look just now, although she couldn't see clearly, judging from the clothes of those people, they were either rich or expensive.

One of them looked familiar, and when the boy came to report, she immediately remembered.

Aren't two of these people the ones that Mr. He took to dinner and discuss business last time?

Seeing that the restaurants in Laicheng are so big and booming, those few people are greedy again.

She stood up and said, "In that case, let's meet."

Then, with the help of the servant girl, she prepared to go upstairs.

Young Master He also stood up at this time and said, "I'll go with you."

Liniang also saw the intentions of those people, she was afraid that Qin Zhiyi would not be able to deal with it by a woman, so she said: "Can I bring Liniang with me? Although I am just an ordinary woman, I can serve tea and pour water." It can still be done.”
