Chapter 411 Making Trouble

Shen Yuntian left, Shen Miaomiao also left. Chi Sheng returned to Qingfeng Village with Yuanbao, and life seemed to pass extremely fast.

Nanzhi devoted herself to her career, and Shen Wenchen was too busy to see anyone every day.

Several little babies were also thrown into the academy.

Seeing that it is September, the wind in Yancheng has already brought a chill.

The business of the ice drink shop stopped early, and now it only sells some tea snacks.

It can generate dozens of taels of income every month.

Sanweiju's business is still good, but it's not as popular as when it first opened.

The business of Zuitingxuan and Hongfulou is stable, and Sanweiju can only be on par with them.

The carpentry shop managed by Lin's father can earn more than ten and twenty taels a month, and the food shop managed by Lin's mother can also earn twenty taels a month.

"Boss, I heard that another restaurant has opened in the city. Many of our regular customers have gone there."

When Liu Da saw Nanzhi coming from the next yard, he hurriedly greeted him.

The business in the restaurant has become worse and worse these days, and even the regular customers who used to come every now and then have disappeared.

The boss is not in a hurry, but the waiters are very worried.

Now the monthly salary of a waiter in a restaurant is about two taels of silver. As long as the business in the restaurant can be better, they will get more wages.

Now that their business has been taken away by other shops, they are naturally panicked.

"Yeah?"

In the past two days, Nanzhi has also been busy dealing with the affairs of the little girls next door, one of whom is older than the other.

At first I thought that buying people directly would save a lot of trouble, but now the disadvantages came.

The girls I bought were all in their late teens, mid-teens, mid-teens, or fifteenths, which is when they first started to fall in love.

It was getting cold during this time, and the Zeng family's ice shop had long since broken out of ice, so the small yard sold snacks instead. Once things were quiet, the little girls became more thoughtful.

A few days ago, a little girl was spotted quietly going out from the backyard to have a private meeting with someone.

Thinking of these things, Nanzhi felt a headache.

That girl's lover is an idle second-rate guy. Looking at him like that, she is afraid that she will give away her body.

This matter is a big deal or a small matter. If it is not handled well, it will not be good for the reputation of the restaurant and the little girl.

When the little girl Nanzhi bought it back, she spent seven taels of silver, so she didn't ask for much. She only asked the man for a gift of ten taels of silver.

If he gave it, she would use half of the ten taels of silver to give to the girl as a dowry, and the other half as ransom money.

As a result, the little girl cried and shouted for him to let her go, saying that she was in love with the second-rate man and did not want to stay here as a maid anymore.

It would be okay if she didn't say this. As soon as these words came out, Nanzhi became angry.

She wanted to be nice to them, but she didn't want to raise a white-eyed wolf.

Whose servant only has to work four hours a day?

Whose servant still gets four days off every month?

Whose servant can still have one or two silver coins a month?

She just gave the little girl an ultimatum.

Twelve taels of silver to redeem her life, otherwise she would not give her body contract and go out.

"I heard they sell hot pot! The business is so good, so many people come in every day!"

Liu Da frowned when he said this. After thinking about it, he continued to say the following words.

"That restaurant is only two streets away from us..."

Nanzhi rubbed his eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh.

Could it be that it's Su Tao's shop?

She was not afraid of anything else, but she was worried that this hotpot restaurant was Su Tao's handiwork.

She remembered the things that happened to her before. She had already experienced how powerful the plot was, and she no longer wanted to have anything to do with Su Tao.

"Master, should we go and take a look?"

Liu Da pursed his lips and asked this question cautiously.

As competitors, they should still explore the bottom.

"You go ahead. The restaurant will be closed for the day tomorrow, so you can have some rest. When you get back the money you paid for the meal, just pay it to Uncle Ping. Treat it as a dinner party."

Nanzhi has always treated its employees preferentially.

Everyone is invited to have a dinner together at public expense once a month. It's almost time, so they are asked to inquire about the situation.

"Master, aren't you going?"

"I'll go next time."

Nanzhi waved his hands, feeling exhausted.

She didn't know why, but she always felt very sleepy these days.

When I get home every day, I want to stay glued to the bed.

Watching Nanzhi leave, Liu Da scratched his head in confusion.

Could it be that the boss was so angry with the little girl next door?

The next day Liu Da took a group of Sanwei Juli's waiters to the newly opened hot pot shop.

The name of the shop is also very simple, it's called Hot Pot Restaurant.

Just standing outside the door, you can smell the spicy aroma.

"Uncle Ping, shall we go in?" An Wazi had been coughing recently, and just smelling this smell made her feel a little choked.

But looking inside through the window, he was a little curious as all the guests inside looked enthusiastic about their food.

What on earth is this hot pot?

"Go in." Uncle Ping looked at the pepper skewers and garlic skewers hanging at the door, and took the lead to go in.

The waiters at the hot pot restaurant all wear white short coats and red trousers, which always look like chili peppers hanging at the door.

"Guests, please..." The waiter who came to greet the guests was a man in his twenties, with a smile on his face at the moment.

"I wonder who the guests are?"

Uncle Ping looked at him and just pursed his lips behind him.

"We're all in this together."

When the guy heard this, he just turned his head and looked behind Uncle Ping. Looking at the group of people behind him, the smile on his face froze.

"I wonder if the location is enough?"

Liu Da looked around and then smashed his mouth.

There were more than ten of them along the way.

That's it, not counting the delivery guys and the little girl in the yard next door.

"I'm afraid one table won't work. But our backyard is larger, so we can open three tables for you!"

The hotpot restaurant has two floors. The lobby is downstairs, with a total of about ten tables. There are six private rooms upstairs, and there are five or six tables in the backyard, which is considered large.

The cool breeze was blowing, and a group of people were sitting in the yard eating hot pot, chatting and laughing, which was really refreshing.

It wasn't until the time of checkout that Liu Da finally came to his senses.

The taste of this hot pot is indeed novel, but the price is a bit too high.

There were fifteen of them and they spent four taels of silver, which was still a fraction of the price.

Seeing the four taels of silver handed over in a solid manner, others were also a little surprised.

In total, each person ate more than 260 yuan, but they didn't know how much they ate.

"This hot pot is really expensive."

One person clicked his tongue.

Each of them earns about two taels of silver for a month's wages, and it takes four days' wages to have enough for this meal.

"A plate of beef slices here costs fifty cents." Lu Daliang was happy just now, but now he thought it was a bit outrageous.

The plate of beef slices they had was probably not even half a catty of meat in total. The current price of beef is sixty cents per catty, but the restaurant only sells it for forty-three cents. This hot pot restaurant is really making money.
