Rebirth of the pastoral landlady

Chapter 264 Taking over the Mingshan Pavilion (Part [-])
"Miss." Ah Cai's voice whispered into the room from under the back window, Jin Xi hastily opened the window, and outside the window, Ah Cai and Ah Wang stood behind the bamboo under the moonlight.

"Miss, just now that guard jumped in from the high wall, we brothers all noticed it, because we recognized him as Master Wen Ding's personal guard, so we didn't try to stop him." Ah Cai said.

Acai and Awang are both buddies given to him by Wending. It is more appropriate to say that they are bodyguards rather than buddies. It is common sense that they are familiar with the guard who delivered the letter before.Ah Cai said this, probably because he didn't want her to feel panic and insecure?Jin Xi smiled in relief, and said: "I know, I feel at ease with the two of you protecting my house."

Ah Cai and Ah Wang stood behind the bamboo without making a sound.Jin Xi said: "You two go back to the house and sleep, you don't need to watch out my window, just relax!"

"If something happens, Miss just whistles, and we'll come right away!" Ah Cai said.

Jin Xi nodded and said: "Go!" She immediately lowered the window.

Ah Cai and Ah Wang outside the window retreated in unison, their footsteps were so soft that even Sun and the others in the next room could not detect them.

This night, Jin Xi sat under the lamp for most of the night before going to bed to rest.Even if I close my eyes, my heart cannot be calm.

In the letter, Brother Wen told her not to think about it. Even if Jin Xi thinks about it, it is futile. The most urgent thing is, what Jin Xi is thinking about is how to turn the big restaurant with a semicolon and nearly a hundred employees after taking over the Mingshan Pavilion. , Let's stand up and live up to Wending's great trust!

Just as dawn broke in the East, Jin Xi got up from the bed, and after washing, she opened the door and went outside.Mrs. Sun was sweeping the yard. Liang Yuzhong had just finished washing and was sitting under the big pagoda tree in the yard drinking tea.

The lush and bright green pagoda trees are covered with clusters of pink and white pagoda flowers. Although they have not yet bloomed in a flourishing manner, the yard has already filled with the faint sweet smell of blooming pagoda trees.

"Xi'er, what... are you doing?" Mrs. Sun paused slightly with her hand holding the broom, her eyes swept over Jin Xi's whole body, and asked in surprise, Liang Yuzhong also looked this way when he heard the words.This outfit looks like it's about to go out.

Jin Xi smiled slightly and said, "Mother, I'm going to the town today."

"What? Didn't you promise mother that you will stay at home and not go anywhere?" Sun threw away the broom, walked towards Jinxi quickly, held Jinxi's shoulder, and said urgently: "It's not about your father about the business in the shop, you listen to your mother and stay at home peacefully, ah!"

Liang Yuzhong nodded repeatedly at the side, and said: "If you have anything to tell you, Dad will do as you tell!"

Jin Xi glanced at her parents with a smile, then took Sun's hand instead, and said, "Mother, to tell you the truth, I went to visit Brother Wen yesterday, and he said he had to leave Changqiao Town for a while. One day, Mingshan Pavilion entrusted me to help take care of it. Although there is no shortage of acting shopkeepers and accountants in the restaurant, but I agreed to their affairs, so I have to go and have a look, no matter what?"

"Girl Xi, speak slowly. You mean, Wending has entrusted Mingshan Pavilion to you?" Sun thought she had heard wrong. Mingshan Pavilion is the largest restaurant in Changqiao Town. It's just a semicolon. The one in Wanghai County is said to be larger in scale and is the head office. In addition, there is also a branch in Huhai County.

Jin Xi smiled and nodded.

"Girl Xi, isn't Mingshan Pavilion the property of Wending's uncle Fang the shopkeeper?" Liang Yuzhong also came over and asked in surprise.

"In the past, shopkeeper Fang was the shopkeeper to the outside world, but the real owner inside is actually Brother Wen, and Mingshan Pavilion was built with Brother Wen's assets." Jin Xi explained, and she also learned about this in Wen Ding's letter last night. of.

"Ah, so to speak, the 500 taels that your grandma borrowed for your uncle that year was actually the creditor of Brother Wen? Brother Wen is so young and capable..." Mrs. Sun murmured Dao said, Jinxi was 12 years old, she set up three shops, built a house for her family and bought fifteen acres of land, Sun could wake up laughing several times from her dreams.

Now hearing that Wending was only a few months away from owning a restaurant like Mingshan Pavilion, Mrs. Sun was too shocked to speak.After all, Liang Yuzhong was a man, and his knowledge and endurance were superior to Sun's. After a short shock, he quickly calmed down.

"I'm not surprised. I've long seen that Brother Wen is different from other people. He is capable! Look, our family can be what it is today without his support!" Liang Yuzhong said.

Jin Xi looked at Liang Yuzhong with a smile, and said: "Father, that's exactly the case. Now that Brother Wen has something to leave for a while, entrusting Mingshan Pavilion to my care, how much trust do you have in me? Since I agreed to him, naturally You have to do it with all your strength, and you must not disappoint his entrustment!"

"Well, it sounds like my daughter. At first, my father was worried that you would not be able to take on this burden! Now, if a daughter dares to pick it up, the father will naturally approve of you. Later, my father will accompany you to Mingshan Pavilion!"

"Oh, look at you father and daughter, you are singing and singing together, don't even look at what time it is, that Mao...Mao Shiba has not been brought to justice yet, maybe he is hiding on some road, waiting for us Xixi My son appeared to seek revenge!" Sun said worriedly.

"What are you afraid of? I will accompany my daughter, and Ah Cai and Ah Wang, no matter how vicious Mao Shiba is, I will meet for a while, dare to seek revenge with my daughter!" Liang Yuzhong said violently, as a A man who can't protect his daughter is cowardly!
Mrs. Sun's persuasion was ineffective in front of her, and it was entrusted by Wending, so she had to give up for the time being and go out with Jinxi. Of course, some careful instructions were indispensable, until the ox cart drove on the official road, and there was no sign of leaving. Then, with the support of Jian Shi and Tao Zhi, Mrs. Sun turned and went back to the yard.

Mingshan Pavilion Restaurant, Changqiao Town, Tianzi No. [-] box room on the second floor.

Jin Xi sat behind the Eight Immortals table, and in front of her were two men in their 50s and [-]s standing with their hands down.A short, fat man with a red face, wearing a long gown embroidered with big copper coins, was originally the manager here, surnamed Dai.

The old man with a flat body, slightly stooped, gray hair and small eyes, and a pair of thick glasses on the bridge of his nose is Mr. Liu, the accountant here.

The two of them were standing in front of Jin Xi at this time, with their hands hanging down across a table, their faces were full of surprise and apprehension.Because half an hour ago, Jinxi, accompanied by Liang Yuzhong and Acai and Awang brothers, stepped into Mingshan Pavilion, directly opened Tianzi No. [-] room, and asked the waiter to call for Dai Guanshi and Liu gentlemen.

On one side is the largest restaurant in Changqiao Town, and on the other is the grocery store and breakfast shop industry in Changqiao Town. The newly killed dark horses, Guanshi Dai and Jin Xi, naturally know each other's reputation in the town.

After all, they are the steward and the old accountant in the big restaurant, and the two of them looked at the 12-year-old girl in front of them somewhat contemptuously. Even if she opened the Tianzi No. [-] private room, it was just a nouveau riche showing off, without precipitation.

However, when Jinxi unfolded the transfer contract of Wending in front of Guanshi Dai and Mr. Liu, the two were horrified.Daringly, this little upstart girl didn't come here to show off, but came to take over the restaurant?
The change of owner of the restaurant, such a major event, the two of them who are relied on, did not even have the slightest word in advance, not to mention the waiters in the lobby outside?

After all, they are old people who have been in business for decades, and they are very cautious. They cannot be completely trusted by a contract alone.

Sure enough, Steward Dai smiled and asked a question, pointing to the date written on the contract, and asked: "Miss Liang, I want to tell you this, our Wen Dong family transferred the Mingshan Pavilion and the Mingshan Pavilion under our name as early as March The semicolon has been transferred to you, Ms. Liang. Today is the third day of May, why hasn't Ms. Liang come to take over the restaurant for so long?"

Mr. Liu on the side nodded again and again, and a sharp light shot out from the small eyes behind the thick lenses.

Jin Xi smiled lightly, and said: "Both of you are old people who follow Wen Dong's family, you will be able to recognize at a glance whether the contract is his autograph or not." Steward Dai and Mr. Liu exchanged glances, yes, It is true that Wen Dong's words are true.

After a pause, Jin Xi went on to say: "As for why the transfer was made in March and only accepted in May. During this period, I reached a private agreement with your Wendong family. You, as well as all the people in Mingshan Pavilion and its branch, are all There is no need to know. What you need to know is that I, Liang Jinxi, can take care of Mingshan Pavilion now. If you still have any doubts, I will give you another identification!"

As she said that, Jin Xi took out the red clay stamp with a leopard head that Wending had left for her.Mr. Liu took it, pulled out a magnifying glass from his waist, and began to study it carefully.

Steward Dai squinted his eyes and looked around, while discussing with Mr. Liu in a low voice.

"You two have to look carefully. This seal is a keepsake from the owner of Mingshan Pavilion. As the two of you are the capable people of the Semicolon Restaurant in Changqiao Town, you must have some insight, right?" Jin Xi calmed down. He took a sip of his tea, his eyes swept over the two people who were huddled together, and he knew in his heart that powerful old men who played an important role in the restaurant like the two of them would only submit to Wending in their hearts.

Now that there is a sudden change of owner, and the one who takes over is still a girl who is enough to be their daughter, they are definitely not convinced in their hearts.It is human nature to study for a while, but Jin Xi does not have much patience for them, she is here to announce something, not to ask for their opinions.

"You two, can you be careful? If there is no objection, I have something to announce next." Jin Xi said lightly, winking at Ah Cai, who stepped forward to take back the seal from Mr. Liu, Hands back to Jinxi.

"Look carefully, Miss Jin Xi, oh, look at my clumsy tongue, Master, what orders do you have, we two will listen attentively." Mr. Liu put away the magnifying glass, bowed slightly, and said.
