"Master! It's here, I remember we've been here before."

On this day, Si Ya and Xiao You led Chen Nianguan and others to the Yueman Building, and they were angry.

"I checked for two days, and Yang Jishan would sneak out of the academy every three days and secretly go back to Capital City for a toothbrush ceremony." Xiao You said to Chen Nianguan with a cold face, "The one who came is Yueman Building!"

Chen Nianguan looked at the Yueman Building plaque, and snorted: "Go to the back alley and wait."

Although my husband said it was an accident, how could Chen Nianguan believe it?

Besides, heard from Daohe that during this period of time, Yang Jishan in Meilu Acade has made things difficult for Zhang Er.

It is good that Yang Jishan has the support of the queen, but Zhang Er also has himself!

If Yang Jishan dared to bully Zhang Er, she dared to return him.

Shouldn't her husband pamper and protect her?

As for the relatives of the emperor, she knew that she had to be respected and respected, and if she felt unhappy, she could stay away, but if she wanted to be bullied, she just couldn't swallow it.

Not to mention that Yang Jishan targeted his husband for no reason, his character is not good at first glance.

And he's just a nephew of the royal family's Pond family. He didn't dare to come, but who wouldn't secretly find the place?Let Yang Jishan have a long memory.

So when Zhang Eryi woke up and found that he was fine, Chen Nianguan asked Xiao You to sneak into the academy to check Yang Jishan's schedule.

This Yang Jishan didn't look like a serious student at first glance, he was fine with showing off his power to the queen's nephew in the academy, and sneaked back to the city every now and then, just to stutter.

Xiao You checked and found out that those who accompanied Yang Jishan into the city were also three dude disciples.

Because he sneaked into the city, he didn't dare to show it off, he didn't bring the guards with him, and the boy stayed in the academy to deal with his master. It is probably because he has done this a lot and has never been discovered.

If you want to beat Yang Jishan up, now is a godsend opportunity.

The timing was chosen when Yang Jishan and others left Yueman Building from the backyard.

When they entered the city, they all rode into the city alone, and the horse was tied in the stable in the backyard of Yueman Building. They must also ride back to the academy, so when Yang Jishan came to get the horse, he had to lead them away, and waited.He's on the order, let's do it again.

Except for Xiao You and Si Ya, the two beasts and Liu Feng who came over were responsible for leading away the other three dudes who came to Capital City with Yang Jishan, and Xiao You was responsible for leading Yang????? Ji Shan to the front lineIn the alley, Chen Nianguan and Si Ya went to ambush first.

After discussing how to split things up, everyone dispersed.

Chen Nianguan and Si Ya left the back alley and went to the remote alley in front. Si Ya was so excited about doing this kind of job of teaching the wicked for the first time that she almost forgot to cover the cloth she had prepared earlier in the morning.There was commotion in the backyard of the building every other month, and someone was yelling. Chen Nianguan squatted on the wall with Si Ya covered his face, and saw Xiao You leading a son over from a distance, and pulled Si Ya in front to get the sack ready, only to find that she didn't bring a face towel.

"Si Ya!" Chen Nianguan anxiously pointed at the cloth covering his face, Si Ya came to his senses, hurriedly put it on, caught a glimpse of someone coming from the corner of his vision, and immediately grabbed the sack and went to that personThe top of the head is set down.

One set in the end, a success!

"Who?" Yang Jishan, who was trapped, called out in embarrassment.

No one responded to him, Si Ya didn't wait for Xiao You to pull Chen Nianwan down from the wall, she punched and kicked the sack, Yang Jishan was beaten so loudly that he fell to the ground and rolled over.

Chen Nianguan also stretched out his foot and kicked him hard several times.

It wasn't until Yang Jishan couldn't bear the pain and started shouting, seeing the disturbed pedestrians at the entrance of the alley, and some people looking for this side, that Xiao You and Si Ya each supported Chen Nianguan over the wall and fell to the other side.In an alley, just as they were about to run out quickly, the startled person jumped up and fell into this alley again, blocking their way.

"Assaulting people is not an aboveboard act."

Chen Nianguan had calculated all kinds of calculations, but he didn't expect that a brave person would come to him and wanted to justify something. Si Ya on the other end tore off the cloth scarf from his face in surprise: "Uncle Xu!"

"Si Ya?" Uncle Xu looked at Si Ya, shocked, "You, why did you come to Capital City?"

At this moment, Yang Jishan's curses and indignant roars came from the ambush alley next door, and Chen Nianguan hurriedly pulled Si Ya.

"Master, it's Uncle Xu." Si Ya said pleasantly, "It's the Uncle Xu I told you about."

Chen Nianguan helped the forehead.

Yes, she knew that this was Uncle Xu whose five hundred taels of silver was blurred, but is this the time to say that?This silly girl even revealed her identity.

"Uncle Xu, we are here to eradicate the strong and help the weak, punish the rape and eliminate the evil! Let us get out of here first, we, let's talk at the other side of Xianggui Street."

Well, not only has his identity been leaked, but even his old background has been exposed.

Fortunately, Uncle Xu didn't ask any more questions, he bowed his hands to Si Ya and let them leave. Chen Nianguan took Si Ya and Xiao You and ran to the intersection in one breath.It just happened to fly towards Chen Nianguan's face, Xiao You, with sharp eyes and quick hands, quickly ran a few steps and pulled the whip over.

Chen Nianguan broke into a cold sweat from fright, if the whip fell on his face just now, it would not just be a matter of the mask falling off.

"You bastards, dare to hurt people in Capital City in broad daylight? Do you still have the law in your eyes?"

Well, here comes another brave man, a girl.

Whether he was guilty or something, he actually picked such a good day and auspicious day to do it, next time he would do such tricky things, he had to check the almanac first.

"Boss, you go first."

After Xiao You said that, Chen Nianguan hurried out with Si Ya, got into the carriage parked by the roadside, and drove away quickly.

"Stop!" The girl was furious.

When Xiaoyou saw the carriage of Chen Nianwan and others leaving, he let go of the whip in his hand and quickly ran away from the enemy. When Yang Jishan was supported and found this way, they ran away early.It's gone.

Chen Nianguan breathed a sigh of relief and felt refreshed, just glanced at Si Ya, seeing that this girl was so happy to see Uncle Xu in Capital City, she sighed, but didn't look at her.

Back on Xianggui Street, seeing the two beasts and Liu Feng, knowing that the battle was successful and not revealing his identity, he breathed a sigh of relief, and when Xiao You came back safe and sound, he was completely relieved.

When Liu Feng asked if they had caught Yang Jishan, Si Ya was the first to claim credit: "We succeeded, and I beat that villain so loudly!"

God knows that Si Ya has been looking forward to one day being able to do justice for the sky and punching bullies, and she is very satisfied that she can get her wish today.

It was true that he chose to stay with the Dong family at the beginning.

"I beat that Yang Jishan, but something happened."

Chen Nianguan told everyone about meeting that Uncle Xu, and also about Xiao You blocking the whip of the brave girl.

"I guess they were all passing by, so we met by chance."

"That girl shouldn't be anything to be afraid of. It's Mr. Xu. Who is Si Ya's boss? He'll find out if he goes back and checks."

"He also knows that we live on Xianggui Street?"

Everyone looked at Si Ya in unison.

Si Ya seemed to realize that there was a leak in her mouth at this time, betrayed everyone, and covered her mouth all at once.

Chen Nianguan asked: "Will he know that we beat the person, will he tell?"

"Mr. Xu is a very nice person. In the Escort Bureau, the Eldest Master and the Second Master admired Mr. Xu." Si Ya shook her head, "And Mr. Xu is also jealous. I also heard him tell a lot about the heroic deeds of the Escort Team when they were walking outside.Uncle Xu has done many bandits and bandits, he is very skilled, I learned martial arts from him before."

Come on, Chen Nianwan finally knows where Si Ya's passion for the world comes from.

"Master Chen, Mr. Xu is really a good person. In the escort agency, he can give me enough food when he is here." Si Ya spoke for Mr. Xu, "I don't dare to eat too much in the escort agency.Always buy steamed buns from outside for me to eat, Master Chen, trust me."

"Letter, letter."

Everyone knew it, and there was nothing they could do, so the soldiers came to block it, and the water came to cover it.

It sounds like Uncle Xu is good, hope there will be no mistakes.

However, Mr. Xu never came to the door, so Chen Nianguan gradually forgot about this matter and focused on watching the progress of the restaurant renovation on Suchuan Road.

After the layout of Chen's restaurant was finalized, Cang Monan took it to Qiaomuhang to set the price, and Chen Nianguan has been waiting for the result.

Because the price cannot be negotiated for a day, the reconstruction cannot be officially started for a day.

The masons invited from the backyard have already negotiated the wages and started to renovate the kitchen. After the masons are finished, they can customize the cabinets according to the size

On this day, Cang Monan got the cost list of Qiaomu, and returned it to Chen Nianguan.

Chen Nianguan couldn't help his eyelids twitching as he looked at the details and estimated price.

Regarding the newly-built tea table and cabinets, high-quality materials were selected, and the screen carved patterns were drawn, because after all, it is a restaurant for middle- and high-level consumers, and it is positioned as light luxury—too extravagant.I can't afford too much expenses, so the layout and design are the same as the layout of Tangshui Shop, which is elegant and noble.

But didn't expect Qiaomuxing to refute her material plan one by one, and switched to top-notch wood, and according to the requirement of carving, daylight robbery, the reconstruction of the first floor alone would cost two hundred and fifty taels.

What are you kidding?

The layout of the first floor is basically unchanged, but on the side of the front porch, there are four elegant seats on the left and right sides of the gate, and a semi-enclosed space can be created by surrounding it with a wooden screen.After vetoing this plan of his own, he suggested that it should be directly made into a box, thinking that the person who came up with this plan was not only ignorant, ignorant of craftsmanship, but also ignorant of elegance.

Tsk!

As for the second floor, it cost one hundred and fifty taels of silver to dismantle the private rooms and turn the eight private rooms into a second lobby that is wider enough to accommodate twelve tables of guests.

It's just a matter of dismantling a box and building an extra tea-making area, so it's so expensive?

In total, it would cost four hundred taels just to renovate the storefront.

Chen Nianguan grabbed the cost list, and then took a look at the layout of the restaurant.

Originally, all the desks, sofas and chairs in Chunfengli were not confiscated. It is estimated that after the confiscation, they were regarded as official property by default, and there were seals, so no one dared to touch them.But the furniture left behind is also semi-new, especially the boxes that are not to be dismantled, which are all high-end pear wood furniture, so they plan to keep all of them, and save themselves a lot of expenses.

The second lobby is even simpler. After demolition, twelve private seats with screens will be built. As for the wood of the box to be demolished, it is also a high-end product.The screen on the upper floor, so as to maintain the consistent style of the entire storefront, this clever wood shop refuted its own plan, and had to buy another wood of the same value to redo it.

The plan, which was obviously very economical, was approved by Qiaomu as worthless.

Chen Nianguan is upset.

"Is there no other carpenter in Capital City besides clever wood?"

"No, it's just that Qiaomu is the largest carpentry in Capital City, and it also has the most skilled craftsmen and the best craftsmanship." Cang Monan felt strange, "Ms. Chen, I think the cost of this four hundred and fifty taels, It's not that we can't afford it, we don't need to save too much." After all, the money he bought for shares alone was two thousand taels.

Chen Nianguan smiled awkwardly at Cang Monan.

Of course she wouldn't tell Cang Monan that the two thousand taels he invested in as shares were used to buy the shop, but in fact, the start-up capital for her reconstruction of the restaurant was only one thousand taels.

Chen Nianguan took back the cost list of Qiaomu, said that he would consider it, and then turned around and asked Shi Cunqi to inquire about carpenters other than Qiaomu.

Then, Shi Cunqi introduced a carpenter Tan to Chen Nianguan.

After Chen Nianguan saw the finished products made by them in Carpenter Tan's house, the quality passed the test, and he had a chat with Carpenter Tan.

Not only is Carpenter Tan’s family all carpenters, but three generations from this generation to the top are all carpenters. Because it is a family workshop, they usually take over small businesses in the city.

Although it is not as famous as Qiaomu, but because of its solid craftsmanship, there is no shortage of customers.

But this is the first time that Chen Nianguan has undertaken such a large restaurant renovation project.

Carpenter Tan's family was very excited. They took Chen Nianguan's layout drawings and looked at them again and again, but they didn't dare to agree to it immediately. They wanted to go to the restaurant to see it first.

Of course, Chen Nianguan agreed. After all, Qiaomuhang sent people to conduct field inspections before evaluating the price.

So she brought Carpenter Tan and his sons and apprentices to the restaurant on Suchuan Road.

Entering the restaurant, Carpenter Tan and the others were visibly excited. While showing them around the restaurant, Chen Nianguan told the design drawings about the effect he wanted to achieve in the renovation.

From the first floor to the second floor, Tan Carpenter and others nodded straightly, and asked Chen Nianguan to explain clearly on the spot if they didn't understand.

After listening to Chen Nianguan's explanation, Carpenter Tan discussed with his son and apprentices, took out a pen and ink to write and draw, and then said to Chen Nianguan: "Master Chen, this work is according to your wishes.While calculating the cost, the wood will be dismantled from the box on the second floor. If there is not enough, we will also budget for a batch of wood, and then the carver will have to charge an additional fee. If you put it all together, the wages will be eighty taels for you.What do you think?"

Chen Nianguan looked at Carpenter Tan, his eyes were shining like stars.

Good man!

This is the carpenter she was looking for!

Immediately, Chen Nianguan signed an agreement with Tan Carpenter and drew up the articles of association.

When Cang Monan came back to ask how he thought about it, Chen Nianguan put the contract signed with Carpenter Tan into Cang Monan's hands, "I've already found another carpenter to take over the job, so I don't need to use Qiaomuxinggone."

Cang Monan looked at it, and the name he had never heard of should be some unknown folk carpenter, right?Is it reliable?

Cang Monan expressed doubts.

Besides, Shi Cunqi, as the big shopkeeper of the Chen family restaurant, is responsible for recruiting staff and contacting supply farmers. He is busy all day long, and Fang is very happy to see him. He even thanks Mrs. Chen for kindly inviting her husband to do business together..

When the family was separated, Uncle Shi took charge of all the affairs of Yueman Building, and they didn't even share any profit with the second room. As compensation, they just allocated an extra 100 mu of land far away from the suburbs of Beijing.

In addition to the money and silver they usually saved, the second house of Shi's family lived on the profit of the more than 100 mu of land. Therefore, Shi Cunqi and Chen Nianguan partnered to buy half of the shares with 1,000 taels was their maximum.

Yueman Building is an ancestral property of the Shi family. Shi Cunqi has followed his grandfather in and out of the restaurant since he was a child, and he knows the way of operation naturally.

Now personally preparing a new restaurant, for him, it is undoubtedly the best time to display his talents.

These days, he visited the farmers he usually knew well, and proposed cooperation intentions one by one, and the terms and agreements were slowly being negotiated, as well as the guys in the restaurant.

When Uncle Shi expelled him from Yueman Building, he dismissed all the guys who had been hired by him. These people all had experience in working in restaurants, so he planned to find them all back one by one.Would you like to continue to work with him? If you don't want to, you don't force it. If you want to, you will be recruited.

As for Master Chen, he asked him to choose the staff at the counter area. He also had a calculation in his mind. As the big shopkeeper, he needed two right-hand assistants. In the past, his wife's brother was in charge of the bank for him, and he was not in the Yueman Building.At that time, it was Fang Jiawulang who helped to look after the affairs he was in charge of, so he also planned to regard Fang Wulang as his confidant, as the sub-treasurer of the restaurant, in charge of money and income.

Shi Cunqi told Fang about this, and Fang nodded in agreement.

There is also the guard, Shi Cunqi intends to go to the escort company to see if there is a suitable candidate.

Shi Cunqi didn't know that when he was actively looking for his former buddies, there was a man named Wang Wu who lived in the same corner with the six waiter sons who were still working in Yueman Building. Shi Cunqi came to look for Wang Wu that day.He saw it.

The six sons recognize Shi Cunqi, and at first glance, isn't this the second master Shi?So secretly took care of it.

After Shi Cunqi left, the six sons went to ask Wang Wu, what was the reason the former second boss wanted him?Wang Wu was happy, so he naturally told the six sons about Shi Cunqi's plan to open a restaurant.

After the six sons went back, they thought it was wrong.

The Yueman Building belonged to Uncle Shi, and Second Master Shi is going to open a restaurant now, isn't he opposite to Uncle Shi?

Is this worth it?So when was working this day, told the shopkeeper about Shi Cunqi's plan to open a restaurant.

The shopkeeper turned around and reported the matter to Uncle Shi.

"He opened a restaurant? Just rely on him? Where did you get the money to open a restaurant?" Uncle Shi didn't quite believe it.

"The six sons said that the second master asked the guy who used to work in our Yueman Building to work in the new restaurant. The restaurant is located at the end of Suchuan Road."

"So the one in Spring Breeze?" After all, they all work in the same line, Uncle Shi immediately remembered.

"That's right."

Hearing that the six sons said that Shi Erye was going to open a new restaurant, the shopkeeper naturally wanted to check if it was true. After this investigation, he went to Suchuan Road. He saw Carpenter Tan bring his staff in to start work, and saw Shi Cunqi coming in and out.When went out, also saw Mrs. Chen.

"Is it Mrs. Chen who opened a stall in the outer city?"

At the beginning, the shopkeeper told Uncle Shi that the Chenjia Hor Fun stall opened in the outer city. Uncle Shi thought that Chenjia Hor Fun and Fish Curd were just two of the many dishes in Yueman Building. This stall is small, and the Chen familyI have no money, and I am a newcomer to Capital City, but I am not a big deal, and I don’t pay attention to it.

Now heard that the members of the Chen family actually partnered with Shi Cunqi to open a restaurant, and even sold the restaurant in Chunfengli?

Uncle Shi had to be surprised.

"Have you found out the origin of Mrs. Chen?"

It was Shi Cunqi who took the lead in signing the contract with Mrs. Chen, so he sent a shopkeeper of his own National People's Congress to go. He only knew that it was a farmer in the countryside.

Well, outside the capital city, to Uncle Shi, everywhere is a country place.

"I checked. When I went to Funing County with my second master, I checked it out. Mrs. Chen is the fourth girl of the third house of the local Chen family. Her father is a scholar. After his death, the third house separated into an independent house. There are three women and children in their family.They were not welcomed by the Chen family, but this Chen Si was capable and set up a stall in Funing County at that time." According to the investigation at the time, the big shopkeeper reported, "It was only one year, and this lady Chen only relied on selling at the stall.Pho, I can never save a large sum of money to buy the restaurant in Chunfengli. I think Mrs. Chen is the cook of the new restaurant!"

"A woman from a family, working as a cook in a restaurant?" Uncle Shi sneered.

The folk customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty were open-minded, and they were not particularly restricted by men and women, but it was still rare for women to engage in business, and it was even rarer for a restaurant to be supported by a female chef.

"You can't underestimate Miss Chen. It is said that she will go to Beijing this time, and she will accompany her son-in-law to take the exam in the next spring. It's hard to say what will happen in the future."

"There are too many candidates in Capital City, so it doesn't mean that everyone has a great fortune. Even if he won the Jinshi, so what?" Uncle Shi still sneered, "Even the number one scholar has to go to the Imperial Academy for two or three years.In 2010, if a mere Jinshi wants to become an official, he still has to find a job. Does a person like him who still expects his wife to set up a stall to make rice noodles have enough money to seek it?I thought it would be so easy to become an official in Beijing if I was a petty official in the egg place!"

The shopkeeper didn't speak.

Uncle Shi thought it wrong, "Since Mrs. Chen has no money, the second room doesn't have the financial resources. How can I build a new restaurant?"

"Boss, the people we sent saw a young master haunting the restaurant."

"Which family?"

"The Cang family."

"The Cang family? The imperial merchant that sells cloth?"

The shopkeeper nodded.

Uncle Shi looked stunned: "Since it's the Cang family, it's reasonable to be able to live in the spring breeze. However, haven't they always been in the cloth business? How did they start a restaurant?"

"I'm afraid, seeing that the second master has worked in a restaurant and has Mrs. Chen's cooking skills, you want to take a risk and gamble on your luck?"

"Tsk!" Uncle Shi stroked his chin.

"Then Shi Cunqi has been recruiting people recently? What else did he do?"

The big shopkeeper then sent someone to follow up, and soon found out that Shi Cunqi was also in contact with the farmer.

"The farmers that the second master has found are all recorded here."

Uncle Shi flipped through the list, "Are there any suppliers for Yueman Building?"

"mostly."

"Okay, then calculate how much these farmers can supply at most, and tell them that we, Yueman Building, will take all their goods for the coming year. If they have any objections, we can raise the price." So where do they come from?Is there any surplus goods for Shi Cunqi?

"In the future, if Shi Cunqi makes any movement, please keep an eye on me. If there is anything wrong, please report to me." Uncle Shi sneered coldly, because he was unwilling to be expelled from Yueman Building, and wanted to set up another company to grab YuemanAre you a patron of the Building?

He wants to see if the Cang's restaurant can be successfully opened.

"Also, isn't he recruiting a buddy? Send two people to sneak in and see what the name of the restaurant is."

There are already so many restaurants in Capital City, even if a new restaurant is opened, it is not easy to get a piece of the action.

Not to mention his Yueman Building, even Yufenglou and Jixiangju will be on guard!

Uncle Shi secretly asked people to spread the news about his second brother's preparation of a restaurant in Yufenglou and Jixiangju.

The owner of Yufenglou sneered: "Second Master Shi wants to squeeze out whoever opens the restaurant, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell it at a glance! Besides, the number of roads that Second Master Shi knows is different from ours. You have to be anxious, you have to worry about Yueman BuildingIt is."

The proprietor of Ji Xiangju waved his hand generously, "Second Master Shi's new restaurant is in the inner city, our restaurant is in the outer city, he is about to open, and he serves people from the inner city.Diners, we at Jixiangju welcome all the diners from the outer city!"

Therefore, before the opening of Chenjia Restaurant, except for Yueman Building, other restaurants did not respond.

The renovation project of the Chen Family Restaurant is still going on quietly.
