late Qing Dynasty arrest

The little girl understood the reasoning, stretched out a finger, shaved her face, and said in a milky voice, "Shy, shameful! The fake foreign devil is ashamed to death, laughs for a while, cries for a while, and opens his eyes. Shy, shy!"

Chen Xiangfang made another effort, spat lightly, and made Li Guolou completely surrender. This mother and daughter are people he can't afford to provoke.

When Li Guolou sat down, he felt that Huang Qiying and others looked at him differently, especially Chen Rou was very enthusiastic about him all of a sudden, and began to ask about his daily life.

This made Li Guolou's face a little embarrassed, and he hesitated in speaking, and he refused to reveal the situation at home. "This;;;;;; that;;;;;;;" Li Guolou kicked his foot a few times, asking his elder brother to help him out.

That bastard was clever, laughed and said: "I said, Mrs. Chen, the dishes you cook are really amazing! They are exquisite and delicious, and they are the best dishes I have ever eaten. Since you have such good craftsmanship, why do you cook? What about Baozhilin. Just open a restaurant, and I promise to help you attract five tables of guests every day, and earn money from rich people in the capital. That's the right way. Yes, fake foreign devils."

Wang Wu also rescued Li Guolou, saying: "Master Huang, I'm a warrior and I don't tell lies. It's really good. If you open a restaurant, I'll treat guests at home and leave them to you. I'm not bragging, at least let you alone." The monthly rent is settled."

Na Bazi smiled and said: "Master Huang, I have also thought up the name for you. It is called Baozhifang. It specializes in royal private dishes. The price is in the middle and high-end route, so that people with a little money can afford it. Baozhilin Just leave it to your apprentice to take care of it."

Chen Rou was excited and looked at her husband Huang Qiying eagerly. They also discussed several times, but some difficulties could not be solved, so they opened a "Baozhilin" in the capital.In fact, "Bao Chi Lam" is their stepping stone, first to take root and gain a good reputation, and then plan for the future.

Huang Qiying sighed and said: "To be honest, the three of you, we are also very confident in the dishes we cook, but you have also seen that when cooking this kind of private dishes, we must pay attention to household utensils, cups and saucers, and appearance. We can afford it. There is nothing we can do with a dozen, twenty or thirty tables. Besides, when we open a martial arts gym, the Green Gang and the Ax Gang will accept a gift, and they will not come to make trouble in the future. If I open a restaurant, they will work hard. If I don’t choose the right place to get the monthly money, maybe the two sects will fight directly in my shop, wouldn’t I be asking for it myself?”

Chen Rou has already seen that the three friends who "smash the scene" are respected by that bastard, and Li Guolou is actually a "gun" played by that bastard.

Chen Rou said softly: "Well, my little aunt has a hard life. Her husband has been dead for more than a year. Her craftsmanship is very good. It's a pity that she is a woman. Otherwise, she would have become a famous chef long ago. It's a pity that she was born in the folks. No one knows."

Li Guolou thought that if Chen Rou didn't ask about his family affairs, and a table of people was talking about opening a restaurant, there was no taboo, so he ate vegetables.But he didn't dare to look at Chen Xiangfang. He still had a secret that no one knew, and the little widow couldn't afford to provoke him.

That bastard, he suddenly understood why Chen Xiangfang only winked at Li Guolou. It turned out that Chen Xiangfang liked the little boy.I'm afraid this matter will be scandalous, Li Guolou thinks he is aloof, and has never seen a fake foreign devil enter a brothel.After Li Guolou was dumped by the little girl, he just wanted to use his fists to vent and cause trouble everywhere. Isn't it all because of him to come forward to settle others.Now he has already become a bridge between the "fake foreign devils" in the capital and the Yamen, the "Golden Luan Bridge" across the sea, that is to say, someone like him.

That Bazi was calculating in his mind that he had some money and stored it in a foreign firm to earn interest. This was recommended by the fake foreign devils to him, and he also specially found a century-old European firm "West India Firm" to save money.Li Guolou told him that it was safer to save money in this firm than at home, because this firm was a branch of the West India Company, and the imported opium of the Qing Dynasty was underwritten by this company.Although Chinese people hated the opium invasion deeply, but if they really counted their own pockets, they still had to find one of the most powerful banks to save their money.Li Guolou also told him, don't deposit money in banks run by Chinese people. Those banks are run by family members. As long as there is a moth or a prodigal, all the money deposited will be wasted. Don't count the value of gold , let you eat a few mouthfuls of meat at first, and then swallow your meat and bones together.

Na Bazi still believed in Li Guolou's vision. He was a fake foreign devil and a person with high culture.Now he is next to Li Guolou and Wang Xiaocui, the two big trees where he enjoys the cool air. With these two people around, he believes that he can live a good life for a lifetime.Relying on the doorway in the yamen is by no means a long-term solution. There are a sea of ​​Manchu people who can straighten their mouths, and some of them still have backers.As for those who have Li Guolou and Wang Xiaocui as younger brothers, he is the only one in the capital.

Now Huang Qiying and Chen Rou are throwing a hydrangea ball, and there is another mystery hidden in it, only he can understand it.People are asking him for help, it depends on whether he has the ability to catch it?

That Bazi finally figured it out clearly, the money is stored in the firm, and it will not make a fortune for a lifetime.After eating this banquet today, it is capped. It has the exquisiteness of southern dishes and the deliciousness of the imperial dining room in the palace.The dishes need to be brought forth from the old to bring forth new ones. It’s really full of Han people, and it’s boring to eat.The dishes made by Chen Xiangfang and Chen Rou are excellent, and they will definitely become famous in the capital. With his magic tricks, the signboard of "Baozhifang" can be ranked among the top four restaurants.

That Bazi's face was serious, he tapped the table with one finger, and said: "Master Huang, I didn't mean you, why do you want a friend? There is a man here who spends his money in the water, and next year he will spend thousands of taels of silver to buy a Enke Scholars. Li Guolou! Brother, I want to scold you. There is no real shortage of Enke Scholars in the last session of the capital. My elder brother advises you not to think about buying a real shortage, but to be a clerk in a down-to-earth manner. People dare to use you because of your actual officialdom experience. You say that you are poor and white now, and you want to rise to the top in one step. Ask yourself, is there such a thing in the world? Your Li family’s little wealth has made you bald. "

Li Guolou drank too much wine, his forehead rushed, and he shouted: "Brother, what do you mean by saying such a thing until now, I put all my heart on Enke Scholars."

Na Bazi shouted: "Third brother, you have to trust me, don't even think about reaching the sky in one step, you are not a relative of the emperor. Big brother will find you a position as an official. You should do it first, and then use your money to pave the way. It is very easy to get promoted. Hurry up. As for the 1000 taels of silver, don’t hide it in your pocket. The three of us have a partnership to do business. Whether it’s the business of the Wang Wu family, or running a business with those fake foreign ghosts, we can get along well in the capital. It's booming."

Li Guolou replied: "Brother, I don't like doing business, I just think about it all day long, I'm so tired of it. If I wanted to do business, I would have stopped working in the capital a long time ago. It's not like you don't know that."

Chen Rou winked at Chen Xiangfang, wanting Chen Xiangfang to kill her. She knew that the little aunt had a woman's charm, and no man could resist the charm of the little widow.

Chen Xiangfang faltered for a while, finally mustered up the courage, and shouted: "Li Guolou, you are a prodigal son, and you don't feel bad about selling your father's land. Brother, please listen to me."

Li Guolou caught Chen Xiangfang's eyes, lowered his head hastily, and didn't dare to say anything anymore, he couldn't bear Chen Xiangfang's pickiness.As for the elder brother's words, if you don't listen to it, you have already been led by the nose at this point in your life.

For the fat bull Zhang Tieniu, he was extremely unlucky today.After losing a crucial battle in his life, Chen Xiangfang, who usually looked good at him, didn't look him straight when he entered Li Guolou.Such obvious women chasing men, so Baozhilin doesn't have any good men!

The four apprentices had already seen that their master Huang Qiying was very fond of Li Guolou, and they chatted with great interest until now, but they asked his wife Chen Rou to inquire about Li Guolou's family affairs, obviously wanting to associate with Li Guolou.How can there be such a cheap thing in the world?Li Guolou refused to join in. Although the young man is thin-skinned, he is by no means a person who forgets righteousness when he sees sex.

Na Bazi heard what Li Guolou said to him, and said "OK"!I knew that Li Guolou had surrendered.He has already figured out Li Guolou's temper, as long as he promises, he will not change, he is a "donkey".

That Bazi wanted to beat the donkey who fell into the water, but when the topic changed, Linglong fell into trouble.Li Guolou had no complaints or regrets, and followed the donkey rider to the dark.

Na Bazi stood up and said, "Come on, let's toast to the eternal friendship. Third brother, you bitches like egg buns, stand up for me, don't embarrass us men."

Li Guolou was kicked by that bastard, so he could only stand up and sneer with everyone. The bamboo leaf green was like a fire, burning in his throat, and his whole body began to feel hot. Relying on a burst of hot blood, he gritted his teeth and poured two cups of bamboo leaf green into the stomach.He wasn't drunk, but was on the verge of drinking. Anyone who had drunk alcohol would have this feeling. Drink some tea, chat for a while, and let the excitement pass.It's just that the people on the side looked ugly, and a pig's head was sitting next to it.

Lingling gnawed on the chicken leg and stared at Li Guolou. Now everyone at the table was staring at him. He had a special image, making people want to drink three more glasses with Li Guolou.Although I know it's not kind to do so, isn't it just to see people make a fool of themselves at the banquet?

Fat Niu stood up and wanted to toast Li Guolou, but was blocked by that stick.Nabazi said seriously: "Fat cow, don't stare like an enemy, maybe everyone will be relatives in the future. The fake foreign devil is dead, let him rest for a while, and I will drink with you. We have met before. Yes, where is it?"
