She delivered food in ancient times

Chapter 38 Rumors
"Ah, leave it to me." Erya didn't expect that just after carefully completing a task, a more difficult task came immediately.

"Do you really leave it to me?" Erya was not very confident in herself.

There was also a bit of difficulty on her face, but her eyes were clearly shining with eagerness to try.

Both Meng Qing and Ji Xi saw it.

Ji Xi stepped forward and hugged this younger sister who had always made her feel at ease, and encouraged her, "Sister Meng Qing said so, which shows that you have this ability, and you did well last time, right? So this time it will be fine."

"Then I'll give it a try." Already thinking about how to train Tieniu and his group, so as not to ruin the good reputation they have earned with great difficulty as a takeaway.

After this period of fermentation, Xiaotong Food Delivery has a good reputation among ordinary people and merchants with its excellent service attitude and good reputation of never being late.

In contrast, more and more people experience the food delivery service, and their manpower is becoming less and less sufficient.

Seeing that Erya had fallen into deep thought and entered into work mode so quickly, Meng Qing and Ji Xi smiled at each other, but it is not about work now.

She still has a piece of good news that she hasn't told her yet.

He had no choice but to wave his hand in front of her to bring people back to their senses.

"Sister Meng Qing, I'm sorry, I've been thinking too much." Erya who came back to her senses said a little helplessly.

"It's a good thing that you can bother to think about it. Didn't you promise you to finish that thing before and give you a new name?" Hearing Meng Qing mention the name, Erya looked at her excitedly and longingly, so now it's I'm going to help her choose a name, I'm so looking forward to it, I don't know what her new name will be.

Seeing that she was looking forward to it, Meng Qing told her directly.

"It's Zhang Weijun, what's the name like?"

"Zhang Weijun, this name sounds very suitable for sister Erya." Ji Xi said it silently twice, and the more he said it, the more aftertaste it felt, and he couldn't help admiring.

Zhang Weijun himself kept repeating his own name, and when he heard Ji Xi's words, he kept nodding, obviously liking his new name very much.

"It's good that you like this name, and I'm worried that you don't like it." Meng Qing pretended to be relieved, which made Ji Xi and Zhang Weijun laugh together.

Seeing that the two of them should have other things to discuss, Zhang Weijun thought about the 'important task' he just got, and wanted to quickly think about how to train Tieniu and his gang, so he offered to go back first.

"Sister Meng Qing, when I delivered food these two days, I met many shopkeepers of restaurants and taverns. They wanted us to help deliver food or wine together. Thinking that we don't have enough manpower, they temporarily refused."

When Ji Xi talked about the refusal, her little face was full of pity, the loss was all white money, but she knew clearly that they obviously did not have so many people to bear it.

Under such conflicts, it seems particularly entangled, and it is also because when Meng Qing said that he wanted Tieniu and the others to join, he did not object, but felt that it would be good if there were more people.

"You are right. You will be overwhelmed to take on new clients before you have trained new staff. In fact, you are already overwhelmed now."

Since signing the agreement with shopkeeper Zhu, shopkeeper Zhu's restaurant has also started a takeaway business. Some customers who can't afford Tianyuelou but can afford Zhu's restaurant will naturally not miss this opportunity. So, the takeaway team led by Ji Xi and the others was naturally busier.

Ji Xi was silent for a while, and this is not a kind of acquiescence to Meng Qing's words.

"Fortunately, this situation won't last long. There seem to be more and more refugees in the city these days. Remember to pay attention to your own safety when delivering food."

Hearing this, Ji Xi's face suddenly turned ugly, but it only took a moment to return to its original appearance.

But this did not escape Meng Qing's eyes.

His expression became serious all of a sudden, "Why, what happened to you? Why didn't you tell me."

The words were so intense and serious that Ji Xi was a little scared. It was the first time she saw Meng Qing's serious eyes.

It's not easy to hide now, so I have to confide things.

"Actually, it's nothing. When Xiaofeng was delivering food, he was almost surrounded by people when he walked into an alley. It didn't look like he was hurting anyone, but he went directly to his food box. Yes. Fortunately, he was clever and familiar with the roads, so he got out of trouble, and the meals were delivered in time, but it was a bit messed up, and he didn't get good reviews. I noticed that he was in a bad mood."

"He dared to hide such a big matter." Meng Qing was very dissatisfied with this, "Others are fine, as long as they are fine, if the meal is spilled, it will be spilled."

"Are you sure it's the refugees who did it?" As far as Meng Qing knew, Fang Hui, the county magistrate, had clearly posted the recruitment notice and sent someone to preach that all the young and robust refugees should have been recruited. Why? There will also be people ambushing and snatching the food box, which makes Meng Qing feel a little strange.

"It should be. Xiaofeng said that those people were dressed in rags, had broken straw sandals on their feet, and had messy hair. When they saw the food box in his hand, their eyes were about to glow green. Those who met these conditions were either beggars or Refugees, and these days, there are indeed a lot of refugees in our county." Ji Xi nodded, and told Meng Qing the characteristics of the people Xiaofeng saw.

"If you're a beggar in the county, you'd be as familiar with the streets of the county as Xiaofeng. It's impossible for Xiaofeng to take advantage of the terrain to escape smoothly, so the most likely ones are the refugees gathered in the city."

Meng Qing had to admit that Ji Xi's analysis was quite reasonable.

Anyway, she didn't find any flaws in the words for the time being.

"I see. You tell other people to pay attention to safety when delivering meals, especially the girls. I will go to Shopkeeper Liu to ask about the situation later." Although he was skeptical about the Yamen's ability to handle affairs, Meng Qing might as well go directly to the door. Shopkeeper Liu, as one of the local snakes in Xiaotao County, probably knows more than Meng Qing. She plans to come to the door to find out information.

"Actually, I know something about it." Ji Xi pursed her lips and said again.

"What?" Meng Qing didn't react immediately.

"I mean I probably know something about those refugees."

"What about you?" Before finishing speaking, Meng Qing's eyes widened, and she thought, "When Xiaofeng met those people, you took them to find a place."

"Don't lie." Meng Qing said lightly when Ji Xi was about to speak.

Well, seeing being discovered, Ji Xi had no choice but to hang his head and say: "I am indeed looking for someone to find a venue. We often deliver food. There is no place in the county that we don't know. We also know where those refugees are placed. I know, seeing Xiaofeng like that, I got so angry that I led someone to look for it."
