Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 1675 Ending Part
"What is your name?"

The man in black was stunned.

Vanilla curled her lips and said, "Hey, the shopkeeper is asking you a question.

She will be your boss in the future, so you have to treat her nicer.

Don't always look so cold, as if everyone owes you money."

The man in black's eyes darkened, and after a long while, he finally uttered two words: "Chen Guang."

Yingxue picked up the pen and wrote on the paper: "Are these two words?"

The man in black nodded.

Yingxue stuck out her tongue: "I guessed it right, he looks so gentle, but his name is so vulgar."

Xiangcao also nodded in agreement: "Uncle Chen, from now on you will be responsible for accounting. If you have any questions, just ask me."

Yingxue patted Xiangcao's arm and said, "What Uncle Chen? You're making him sound old if you call him that. Customers might not want to patronize us anymore.

Call me Brother Chen, the sisters love you the most, hehehe."

Yingxue smiled like a calculating and profiteer businessman.

Normally, a man from a respectable family would be very angry if he were used to solicit business.

But the man in black didn't seem to mind at all: "Just call me Brother Chen."

"Hey, this is good! This is good!"

Yingxue clapped her hands and exclaimed: "Didn't the storybook say that girls from the Chu State call their own family members "brothers" and only call the man they love "brother"? This sounds more attractive."

Xiangcao also thought it was a good idea and said with a smile: "Okay, I will call you Brother Chen from now on."

"Brother Chen can only be called by the shopkeeper."

Vanilla was puzzled: "What should I call you then?"

"random."

"Look at him, boss! He hasn't even started working yet, and he's already like this!"

Yingxue doesn't care about such trivial matters.

With a smile, he put one of the two deeds in the pocket of his sleeve and stuffed the other directly into the lapel of the man in black.

"As long as you can attract more customers to our Zhenwei Pavilion, you can call me anything you want, Brother Chen!"

After saying that, he smiled at the man in black and called Vanilla to go to the kitchen to check the preparation of the dishes.

The man in black was stunned after hearing those three words, and silently shed tears the moment Yingxue turned around.

In a blink of an eye, the full moon banquet was over and it was time to open the door and welcome guests.

That day, some of the older ladies and middle-aged women who said they would come to the store actually came.

Seeing that there was business to be done, Yingxue simply asked Chen Guang to go out and do the accounting.

Sure enough, people coming and going were dazzled by his presence, and the store became much more popular than before.

The shop was busy as the days passed one by one, gradually from the beginning of summer to the beginning of autumn.

"Vanilla, what's up with those girls outside? They've been hanging around outside our store these past few days and never come in to eat. I saw them leave a few pears outside the door just now."

Yingxue was puzzled.

"Boss, I'm not here to eat.

Look at their clothes. They all have their own chefs at home. They don’t even want to eat with us.”

"So what are they doing here?"

“Of course I’m here to see Brother Chen.

I used to think that Brother Chen only recruited older women, but I didn't expect that young girls also admired her so much.

As for giving pears, it is a custom in Guhe Town. On the first day of autumn, the sweetest pears should be given to the person you love most. "

Is there such a custom?

Yingxue rubbed her fingertips.

After a while he said, "Go and ask those girls if they want to come in for dinner.

If you don't need it, go wherever you like and don't disturb our business." Vanilla was happy: "Boss, a few days ago, the old ladies gathered there, but you didn't say anything, and even said that our store is popular.

Why, you wouldn't be happy if it was a girl?"

Yingxue was a little embarrassed: "What do you know!
Those girls are obviously unmarried.

All the money is in the hands of my parents, so where would the money come from for meals?

It's easy to cause trouble if they get stuck there, why don't you get rid of them quickly."

"Yes, yes, boss, you are the most fair. I will catch up right away."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Vanilla left, the sounds of sweet laughter outside the door turned into quarrels.

"The road in front of the store is not yours, what's wrong with me standing here to see what's going on?
You treat Brother Chen badly, making him work hard outside in the sun and wind every day, and you don't allow others to be nice to him?"

The girl's voice was very high, and it was obvious that she was irritated. The customers in the store all looked outside.

Yingxue had no choice but to go out.

"Miss, please keep your voice down so as not to disturb the guests who are having dinner inside."

The noisy girl was dressed in silk and satin, with delicate skin and tender flesh, looking like a young lady from a wealthy family.

She looked up and down at Yingxue, who was dressed simply, and then said condescendingly: "My father is the richest man in Guhe Town, how much money does Brother Chen owe you?
Tell me, I'll pay it back for him.

After paying off the debt, he will come with me and become the son-in-law of our Geng family, eating and drinking delicious food and drinking spicy drinks, and never worrying about food and clothing for the rest of his life. "

This was really unexpected for Yingxue and Xiangcao.

Vanilla rolled her eyes and said, “Although we didn’t owe much at the beginning, he ate a lot and was picky, so now… he owes us a hundred taels.

If you can give me a hundred taels, the shopkeeper and I will hire a sedan chair with eight bearers and bring him to you..."

Xiangcao's mouth was covered by Yingxue, but she still hesitated unwillingly: "Boss, one hundred taels, it's obvious that she is not short of money."

The girl was indeed wealthy, she smiled disdainfully and waved behind her, and the maid immediately handed her a silver note.

The girl handed it to Yingxue and said, "Look, this is one hundred and fifty taels. Take it and never look for Brother Chen again. No matter how well he lives, it has nothing to do with you."

One hundred and fifty taels, one hundred and fifty taels!
Xiangcao has been doing business with Yingxue for a long time, and her eyes light up when she sees the banknotes.

"Boss, take it quickly, take it quickly."

Yingxue looked at the silver and then at Chen Guang.

“This girl, although he owes money, he was willing to work to pay off the debt, and he was also willing to stay here.

I'm not a businessman.

Now if you want him to follow you, he has to be willing.

As long as he is willing, I, as the shopkeeper, will take the 150 taels as a dowry and buy him some clothes without hesitation."

The people watching the fun praised Yingxue for her kindness and righteousness.

Yingxue looked at Chen Guang, and the girl also looked at him expectantly.

Chen Guang put down his pen, slowly stood up, and bowed with both hands: "Thank you for your kindness, young lady. I have already gotten used to the life here, so I won't bother you anymore."

The girl's eyes widened: "Think it over, we are the Geng family of Guhe Town. If you want to work in the store, I can let you be the shopkeeper. You don't have to suffer in the wind and sun anymore."

Yingxue smiled and pulled Chen Guang up: "You are right to remind me that such a good-looking face really cannot be exposed to the wind and sun. Brother Chen, let's go."

After saying that, he pulled Chen Guang into the store with a little force.

When they were pulled to an empty corner, Yingxue's expression suddenly changed.

While scolding him, he poked his chest with his white and tender fingers, forcing Chen Guang to step back.
"Why are you accepting other people's pears, huh?
Do you like eating pears?
The store sells pear juice, pear soup, pear cake, as well as bird's nest, white fungus and snow pear soup!

Did I give you a bowl of it yesterday?
is not it?
Do you know how much that bowl costs?
Do you know how many people want to eat it but can’t?

How have I treated you unfairly? You are picking other people's pears.

"Speak up! Speak up!"

Yingxue had already forced Chen Guang into a corner, unable to move. She looked up angrily and suddenly met Chen Guang's gentle black eyes like water.

The delicate fingers that had been poking at the person's chest suddenly stiffened.
