Chapter 102

Wang Tong didn't bother to care about shopkeeper Xia, there were too many things to worry about now.

I told Zou Yi the day before that a eunuch wearing a purple robe came to the Delicious Restaurant to report the next morning. At first glance, this purple robe eunuch seemed to be a Maitreya Buddha, and he smiled even without grinning.

"My lord Wang, the little Jiang Zhonggao will be working on the lord's side from now on. Eunuch Zou has told you that if you have anything to do here, you can tell the little one to do it."

Jingjiehu's gambling shop doesn't lose money every day, and Jiang Zhonggao won't be able to use it for a while. Fortunately, the delicious restaurant also needs help.

To say that Jiang Zhonggao did have some extraordinary skills, from morning to lunch time, it was only a matter of a few hours, and in the end he got along well with everyone from top to bottom, everyone from Mrs. Ma to the shop assistants liked it. human.

Moreover, this person had worked as a Shangshan supervisor in the palace, and he was very familiar with the kitchen industry, and he was diligent in his hands and feet. The efficiency of the delicious restaurant was immediately raised, and the atmosphere was great.

Jiang Zhonggao is not a person to worry about. Having such a person in the store is only good for the delicious restaurant.

The busiest meal in the Delicious Restaurant right now is the two meals at noon and evening. It has to prepare the meals for these hundreds of teenagers, and they are served at the same time, and they can't make a big pot of food.

At this time, the eunuchs and guards in the palace also had their meals here and there, of course in another dining room, and the entire Delicious Restaurant was really busy.

But with Jiang Zhonggao, it was different. He took the job of dispatching in the middle from Widow Ma without hesitation. The Shangshan Supervisor had to arrange meals for the entire palace. This number of people is nothing.

For the first time, everyone in the Delicious Restaurant discovered that they didn't have to be so busy at noon. Under Jiang Zhonggao's scheduling, everything was going on in an orderly manner.

Jiang Zhonggao had already gotten along well with everyone beforehand, and no one objected to his command. Even Ma Pozi, the actual manager of the delicious restaurant, laughed.

But Wang Tong noticed that it was only one noon, Jiang Zhonggao seemed to be familiar with everyone in the Delicious Restaurant, he could recognize everyone and call out everyone's name, Zou Yi was right.

*****
At lunch time, after putting the tableware and food in the delicious restaurant, all the staff of the delicious restaurant left here, and Wang Tong also changed into the dark blue martial arts costume.

Soon the restaurant became lively, and the teenagers were talking and laughing loudly while eating. Among these teenagers, apart from Wang Tong, the knowledge of Emperor Wanli was incomparable to others. I don't know many things in the world.

Over the past few days, during the intervals between training in the martial arts hall, Wang Tong talked about it, but during lunch, it was "Huang Yijun" who talked about it. Emperor Wanli liked the feeling of being surrounded by his peers, and he often spoke happily. .

Naturally, Wang Tong wouldn't steal his limelight at this time, he and Li Hutou leaned against the door with their meals and ate. In the morning, Wang Tong was exhausted from official duties and martial arts training, and eating at noon was also a time to rest. Spirit.

"who are you!"

While eating, Wang Tong heard someone outside the Delicious Restaurant shouting and asking, when the emperor is here, this is an important place, and the guards in the East Factory and the palace are all in casual clothes, or pretending to be eunuchs and guards who come to eat, cruising around When encountering strange and suspicious people, they will speak and interrogate them, and even arrest them directly.

"Next is Xia Dafu, the treasurer of the Zhenxing Building over there. I want to talk to Mr. Wang about something urgent."

It was quiet outside, and then someone said:

"This person is indeed the shopkeeper of the restaurant. The identity of Mr. Wang must be kept secret. Ask Mr. Wang to come out!"

The merchants and common people on the whole street are all registered at Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and there are special people to distinguish them. Fortunately, shopkeeper Xia is an acquaintance. If a complete stranger walks over, I am afraid that he will be tied up and arrested immediately. Let's go, let's find a dark prison to torture to find out what happened.

If Wang Tong hadn't been sitting by the door, and the cotton curtains had been replaced by bamboo curtains in summer, I'm afraid we wouldn't have heard of these things.

Not long after, someone dressed as a waiter opened the curtain and came in. After finding Wang Tong's table, he said something in a low voice. Wang Tong put down his rice bowl and followed him out.

Shopkeeper Xia of the Zhenxing Building was standing by the door in fear and waiting. As soon as he saw Wang Tong coming out, he took two steps forward, knelt down on the ground with a plop, knocked his head down several times, and cried out:
"My lord, my lord, I beg you to make the decision for the little one!!"

When Wang Tong came out, the guards outside consciously flashed out of an open space, which was regarded as a kind of respect for Wang Tong. The shopkeeper Xia suddenly knelt down, which shocked everyone, and some people put their hands on the knife. handle.

After sitting in the store for so many years, suddenly he was called "Master", wouldn't that ruin things, and what happened to Shopkeeper Xia, he knelt down in such a hysterical manner.

He hurried forward and pulled that shopkeeper Xia up. Wang Tong's arms are not weak now, so he pulled up shopkeeper Xia, approached him and shouted angrily:
"Don't call me Master Wang, if you need anything, go to Shuntian Mansion, what can I do for you here!"

The other party knelt down suddenly, which also caught Wang Tong by surprise. He now understands his own identity. The General Banner of Jinyiwei patrols the streets and does things according to the order of his superiors. He has no right to accept the case.

Last time, the tragedy of Shopkeeper Zhao’s family happened at the right time, so we had to take care of it, but it had to be done through Shuntian Mansion’s officials and servants. Meddling indiscriminately in the case will definitely arouse the resentment of all parties and cause trouble.

Moreover, shopkeeper Xia is a slippery person, so he might come to him because he wanted to be opportunistic, thinking that he, Jin Yiwei, could do many things.

After throwing it away, before Wang Tong could turn around, shopkeeper Xia, who was exchanging tears, hugged Wang Tong's calf, crying and begging:

"My lord Wang...no no...brother Wang, the villain came to you for help because he had nowhere to go. The certificate was sent to Shuntian Mansion and was thrown out."

Hearing this, Wang Tong was taken aback, stopped his movements and asked:
"What case did Shuntian Mansion refuse to accept?"

Shopkeeper Xia's head loosened as soon as he was obedient, and his strength in holding Wang Tong became weaker, and he said hastily:
"The villain's brother-in-law lost some time ago when he gambled, and borrowed the donkey's money. God damn it, he borrowed 50 taels, and it turned out to be 150 taels in less than half a month. If he can't pay back the money, he will take my money." The poor niece went to settle the debt and sell it to a rich family as a maid..."

Wang Tong broke free suddenly, and said in a cold voice:
"150 taels is a lot of silver, can't shopkeeper Xia take it out?"

In a restaurant like Zhenxing Building, there are still 200 taels of cash on the cabinet, and it is not a hard job to sell it to a wealthy family as a maid these days.

It is said that they are slaves and maidservants, working as cows and horses, but they work as cows and horses in rich families, and they wear delicious clothes, and they may be able to climb high branches. Those big men in the capital want to find a servant girl, everyone. It's all over the head to fight for it. The actions of shopkeeper Xia today are really upside down.

"Brother Wang, the villain's direct sister came to the door crying, why wouldn't the villain give it to me, but those people only want my niece, and don't want money?"

This matter is weird, Wang Tong frowned and asked:
"I remember Shopkeeper Xia, isn't your boss's cousin Shuntian Fuyin? Why can't you hand in the certificate?"

"My niece is going to be sent to be a servant girl in Wang Tianguan's mansion, how could those people in Shuntian Mansion offend her..."

Hearing this, Wang Tong turned around and left. Could it be that Shopkeeper Xia's brain is broken, and being able to be a maid in the official minister's house is more comfortable than being a lady in a middle-level family. It wasn't that shopkeeper Xia was crying pitifully, Wang Tong would have thought that group of loan sharks were philanthropists.

As soon as he turned around, Wang Tong was stunned suddenly. At some point, the doors and windows of the Delicious Restaurant were full of human heads, and the teenagers with greasy mouths crowded there, looking at each one with concentrated attention.

Emperor Wanli and Li Hutou grabbed a good position and stood outside the door. When Wang Tong turned around, the group of teenagers didn't react. The two sides looked at each other stupidly for a while, but it was Emperor Wanli who spoke first:

"Lieutenant Wang, this man's niece is going to be a slave. It's really pitiful. You'd better ask about it!"

Emperor Wanli gave instructions there with his eyes shining. In this day and age, commentary on Bao Gongan has become quite popular, and young people often talked about it when they chatted. Wang Tong is very excited to be the master of Qingtian.

Wang Tong groaned in his heart, so what about being a slave, being a girl from a common people is free, but she can't eat any meat, and can't wear silk, so what good is there, but if she enters the Shangshu Mansion, even if she will be with the mansion in the future The servants in the house get married and start a family, and serve as slaves for generations, which is much better than the poor family, so why bother with him.

But when the emperor asked a question, he had no choice but to turn around and say to the shopkeeper Na Xia:

"Going to work as a servant girl in the Shangshu Mansion, a good job that ordinary people can't get even if they break their heads, you are crying and screaming here, aren't you stupid?"

Shopkeeper Xia knelt on the ground with a bitter face, and wiped the tears off his face casually. His hands were stained with mud and just turned into a painted face. The teenagers were all staring at him. Seeing this funny look, they laughed loudly .

"If I work for the Shangshu Mansion, I will be too happy. The villain's miserable niece will be sent to Wang Tianguan's son... The villain's boss has some relationship with Shuntian Mansion. If I know the details, what is Wang Tianguan's son doing?" Dan, I bought a beautiful woman as a cauldron, and I have already smelted four or five to death... I just know this, so the villain doesn't want my niece to jump into the fire pit..."
