Chapter 249 Buying a Cook

After Qin Ya and Li Chenggu talked about this matter, they began to let Wen Ji prepare for the cellar.
As for this cellar, Qin Ya had seen it in modern times, and she had a rough idea in her mind, knowing where to start.

She discussed this with Wen Ji several times, and even drew a rough outline by herself.

Wen Ji sat on a chair and looked at her carelessly at the time: "Where did you come up with this?"

Qin Ya rolled her eyes: "I thought of it when I was in the dungeon."

"Can the dungeon give you such inspiration?"

Wen Ji curled his lips. It's not that he doesn't know about the dungeon, which is far from the requirements of this cellar.

The cellar requires ventilation, and it is best to be dry to preserve food, but the dungeon is a completely opposite environment, dark and humid, where people can't feel a trace of popularity. There are many differences between the two designs.

Qin Ya didn't care where he had so many questions, anyway, she had drawn the image she wanted, and Wen Ji just had to follow her request as much as possible.

After that, Qin Ya's plan to secretly store grain and grass began.

The matter in Wenji's cellar is going on quietly, and Qin Ya is also secretly contacting the grain source.

Originally everything was unimpeded, but who knew that something happened in the Shuntian Building.

Lin'an County is close to the capital city, and there are many rich and powerful people. The second floor of the Shuntian Building serves more people like this.

In the past, if there was any problem with the guests on the second floor, the shopkeeper would basically be able to settle it, but this time the other party's request was so that the shopkeeper couldn't agree to it. In the end, the two parties had a dispute and could only call Qin Ya over. .

Qin Ya came here by herself, and brought Mianmian with her, and brought her here to have a look.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Qin Ya, he immediately reported the situation upstairs to her: "It's the son of the Lu family, and he insists on buying the cook from our Shuntian building. What do you think we should do?"

Qin Ya frowned, it was really the first time she heard such a nonsensical request.

Just because their food in Shuntian Tower is delicious, their chef is going to go there, so if anyone thinks that the throne is good, they can go up and grab it right away?
She put on a cold face. In the past, she always greeted those not so rascal guests with a smile, but today she couldn't help it.

The young master of the Lu family who was making trouble upstairs was originally sitting on the chair on the second floor with his legs stretched out. He has always been so careless, especially today because he is making trouble, so he can't let his momentum be weakened.

When Qin Ya showed his face from the door, the young master of the Lu family was stunned for a moment, then he gathered his legs a little, and couldn't help but straighten his sitting posture.

He could tell at a glance that Qin Ya was dressed as a woman, and he could even tell that she might be in her thirties, but he just couldn't help the charm of that glance.

She didn't smile, she looked cold, but just cold, that face was enough to attract him.

He had heard people say that the owner of the Shuntian Building was good-looking and a beauty, but he had never seen it before, and it was only when he saw it today that he realized that everything was so in line with his wishes.

"You are the son of the Lu family?"

Qin Ya glanced at him, and her tone of voice was not kind.

"Exactly."

Mr. Lu shook the fan in his hand. It was indescribable that he felt like he was sweating.

Qin Ya continued to ask: "You want to buy the chef of our restaurant?"

"Exactly."

Qin Ya said coldly, this Mr. Lu looked not as unreasonable as the shopkeeper's description: "Not for sale."

Mr. Lu stood up shaking his fan, much taller than Qin Ya, and walked over slowly: "I can pay you any amount of money."

"If I sell it to you, can I still do business in this shop?"

"Then I'll buy your shop."

Qin Ya sneered: "Could it be that you think that as long as you have money, you can solve all problems?"

"How much money does my Lu family want, as long as you say the number."

Mr. Lu observed Qin Ya's expression, even a disdainful smile from her was very vivid.

This is completely different from the women he knew decades ago. His concubines would only act coquettishly pestering her to buy things every day. Tenderness beneath the surface.

"priceless."

Qin Ya glanced at him, it was really funny, did she think that Shuntian Building was just this Shuntian Building?It was going to be opened all over the country, it was a living signboard, how could he buy it with a little money?

Mr. Lu smiled: "Little lady, it's not that I don't know about your Shuntian building. When the shop was sold, it was only less than 1000 taels of silver, right?"

Qin Ya felt a chill, what's your name, little lady?The man spoke too freely.

Mianmian blushed with anger, how could such a rambunctious person dare to say such things to his wife.

"It's only the money of this shop, but don't you see my business in Shuntian Tower now?"

Qin Ya was irritated by his words, so she held her breath and yelled at him: "Don't think that you can buy everything if you have money, I won't sell it! Now, get out of this shop for me immediately."

"You little..."

Mr. Lu's servants are even more excited than Mr. Lu, who would dare to speak to his master like that?
Mr. Lu rolled his eyes: "Back off."

He didn't seem to be angry when Qin Ya spoke to him like this.

"Just because you don't want to sell it today, doesn't mean you don't want to sell it tomorrow. I'll come back and ask you tomorrow."

Mr. Lu swaggered away, waving his fan.

Qin Ya was pulled gently, but her chest was still heaving with anger.

The shopkeeper looked embarrassed and came forward to ask: "Ma'am, this young master of the Lu family, we can't afford to offend him."

"Why can't I offend you?"

"The Lu family is the largest grain supplier in Lin'an, but they eat official grain. If one of them is unhappy and cuts off our food source, then our shop..."

Qin Ya frowned, and after hearing what the shopkeeper said, she remembered that the grain source seemed to be discussed with the Lu family, but with Mr. Lu's father, he was not such a dandy.

Qin Ya waved her hand: "Don't worry, we must also be their largest food sales channel."

She couldn't believe it, Shuntian Building's business is so good, and they have to buy fresh food every day, most of their Lu family's business may be supported by Shuntian Building!
Could it be that the masters of the Lu family were really bewitched by Mr. Lu and cut off their food supply?Anyway, she didn't believe it.

Qin Ya returned to the Escort, but still felt that the anger in her heart had not subsided.

That little lady, she still feels uncomfortable.

After hearing Mianmian's report, Li Chenggu rushed over to see her.

Qin Ya sat alone in front of the stone table drinking tea, various tea cups fell on the table.

"what happened?"

Seeing him coming, Qin Ya calmed down her emotions: "The people from the Lu family are really powerful?"

"I heard from County Magistrate Chen that he is the richest man in Lin'an County."

Li Chenggu saw her uneasy expression, and remembered what Mianmian said just now, saying that Mr. Lu said something unpleasant, and asked him to ask Qin Ya himself.
