Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’ - Chapter 99

    Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing, his subordinate, and saw that his eyes narrowed slightly, as comfortable as a well-haired kitten, and the corners of his lips gently evoked a gentle expression. Radian, said softly: “I made about twenty taels of silver.”

    “Yeah.” Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s bright eyes, and felt that even his small appearance as a money fan made him feel a little cute, “After all, today is the one who came here. It is not surprising that prominent people can buy so many.”

    Hearing Gu Lang’s explanation, Chen Xing immediately became happy, hugged his hand and said, “When our braised pork is sold out, we will be able to make a lot of money. By the way, I have agreed with Grandpa Xu and the others that when they bring us rice, we will find a place to sell their rice in the corner of our store, and teach them how to cook it, and let their rice be sold as well. Being able to sell at a good price is also a thank you to him for this time.”

    Gu Lang listened to Chen Xing saying this, without any impatient look on his face, with a faint smile from beginning to end, “Well, you can decide.”

    Seeing that Gu Lang supports him unconditionally, Chen Xing feels even more happy.

    Meanwhile, the Chen family.

    Master Chen sat on the main seat with a gloomy face, staring at Butler Wu who came to report, and said indifferently: “You say it again!”

    Butler Wu resisted Master Chen’s angry eyes and said bravely: “Master, the person we sent to make trouble has been found, and he was knocked out in the alley in their backyard, and he was also beaten up on it. They were covered with sackcloth, and if I hadn’t heard their humming, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to find them there. Now, I’ve sent them all to the hospital, and it’s estimated that they won’t be able to get out for a while.”

    “Waste, you have the face to say it!” Master Chen angrily threw the tea cup at hand at the housekeeper, and shouted: “So many of you went to smash the store, not only Instead of causing them any loss, I made myself into this coward, why are you so rubbish!”

    Butler Wu endured Master Chen’s scolding without a word. They also inquired about how many people there were in the store, and the people who sent them were also good hands. But that’s it, more than a dozen people they sent were injured, which is really strange.

    Just as Butler Wu was discussing silently in his heart, Master Chen also calmed down. He sat down and looked at the housekeeper in front of him, and said solemnly, “How was their banquet today?”

    Butler Wu thought about the scene he saw on time today, and then looked at Mr. Chen, who just calmed down above, hesitant to say it.

    “Speak! What can’t you say!” Since Chen Linger came back with blood on her face last time, she knew that Mr. Chen, who had been there, had always had a bad temper. The restaurant did not close down as he expected, but instead the business was booming, and his emotions became more and more uncontrollable.

     Butler Wu lowered his head and said cautiously, “Those nobles seem very satisfied.”

    When Butler Wu said this, Mr. Chen’s face became more and more ugly, looking at him in disbelief: “How come, did you make a mistake?”

    Butler Wu looked at Mr. Chen’s ugly face and knew that what he said next might not be pleasing to him, and even be questioned by Mr. Chen, but he still told what he had seen and heard came out,

    “Reporting to the lord, what I said is true. I squatted at the door for a long time, and saw the nobles who came out from the inside, all happy, even when they left I took a lot of things, and I could even smell the fragrance when I got close, so it should be the food used to entertain those nobles.”

    Master Chen’s complexion suddenly became extremely bad, and then he thought of the rumors he heard, the people said that the owner of the Chen family restaurant was lucky and got a wild boar king. Are these rumors true? So what he made with those wild boars can satisfy so many noble people with tricky tastes?

    Mr. Chen’s face suddenly turned ashen. Damn, why didn’t their Chen family have such good luck, how could they cheapen that wild species.

    For a while, the air in the room was quiet. Butler Wu looked at Master Chen who was still angry.

    Master Chen was angry for a while, then remembered another thing, and asked with a bit of inquiry in his tone: “Is there still a rice shop selling rice to them?”

    Butler Wu lowered his head slightly and said in a low voice, “Those rice shops have already greeted them and won’t sell them rice.”

    “That’s good, then you can arrange good people to stop the rice they bring from Linxian. I want to see if they don’t have rice in the store, how long can they last!”

     “Yes, the little ones will prepare now. I will let them stay outside the city and wait for the Chen family to buy rice. They will pretend to be robbers on their only way.”

    Master Chen’s face was full of haze, when Butler Wu took the order, he looked up at the sky and sneered, “I want to see, how long will you be lucky? .”

    Just as Mr. Chen fantasized about the pain on his face after Chen Xing and the others were robbed, there was another eager footsteps outside, and he could not see clearly until he got closer It turned out to be the shopkeeper of his cloth spinning.

    Master Chen looked at his flustered look, raised his eyelids, and said in a dissatisfied tone: “What are you doing in such a hurry, and talk about anything.”

    The visitor took several breaths of fresh air, and after the breath stabilized, he raised his eyes to look at Mr. Chen in front of him, Hui reported: “It’s not good, Mr. Zhao! The Zhao family agreed to cooperate with us to provide evidence. The batch of silk that I bought has now regretted it, they don’t plan to make it for us, what should we do!?”

    Master Chen, who was squinting and sitting leisurely, immediately jumped up from the reclining chair when he heard this, and said incredulously: “What did you say?! Hurry up and tell me the details, I’m not allowed. There is nothing to hide.”

    ###

    Chen Xing, who was busy, never thought that after cutting off the supply channel of their county, Mr. Chen wanted to intercept the rice they came from Linxian, but even if he knew about it, he would not care. Because he is really busy right now.

    Since those dignitaries were invited to a banquet that day, the next day, curious people came to ask what the dignitaries ate and what they packed away, so they took the opportunity to introduce their The braised pork made of wild boar is also marked with a limited supply and no more when sold out.

    There are those who are curious, those who are greedy, and those who do not believe that they are so delicious. So, from that day onwards, the braised pork in Chen’s small restaurant became popular in the whole county, and people came to buy it in an endless stream every day.

      Yes, some people can eat three bowls of rice all by themselves.

    Kiyi is one of them. He originally lived in the East District far away from this small restaurant. Although he had heard of the name of this small restaurant in the past, he had never been there.

    Until I heard about this small restaurant feasting a few days ago, the invited nobles were all overwhelmed, and came to taste it with curiosity. As a result, after tasting it, he fell in love with this new dish. He felt that if it was paired with three or two small wines, the taste would be even better!

    From that day onwards, Ji Yi would come over to eat whenever she was free, and if she was not, she would ask someone to help bring it back. It’s just that he went home to eat it, and he always felt that there was something wrong with the taste. Until today, he ate it again, and he tasted the taste after eating it. It seems that he doesn’t think it tastes so good at home, all because of the rice problem.

    Ji Yi hurriedly greeted the little Er next to him, and asked a little embarrassedly: “Why is the rice here so delicious?”

    Ji Yi, who originally thought he could only get one store name, saw the little Er in front of him with a bright smile after saying this, which made him a little panicked, and then Hearing him say: “Guest, do you want to go and see how our meal is made?”

    Looking at Xiao Er’s smile, Ji Yi nodded in a weird way, followed this Xiao Er to their backyard, and then saw bags of rice piled up in the originally empty corner. With a few things on it, a tall and strong man was standing there with a sullen face, meticulously explaining the process of soaking, washing, and steaming rice to everyone who came. The same steamed rice utensils.

      He is the same person who bought something to go back.

    Ji Yi looked down at the things in his hand, and recalled why he bought so many things impulsively in the voice of that man who didn’t listen at all? In the end, he attributed it to the fact that the vat of rice being steamed beside it was so fragrant!

    Ji Yi smiled lightly, well, he still went back and tried, is this rice as delicious as he said. If it is really that delicious, he will buy more next time.

    Chen Xing ended today’s business, and he went to the front desk to reconcile the accounts with Gu Lang. He looked at the accounts on the ledger, and said happily:

    “Look, we made a batch of steaming buckets and sold them in the store. We only sold one place to Daniel and they sold rice, and we could make a profit. This is mutual benefit, everyone If they can make money, when their rice sells well, they won’t be afraid that no one will buy it, and other people in their village will be richer.”

    Because Chen Xing knew how to shell the rice, and how to wash and cook it, the rice that was originally inferior was turned into a high-quality one, and the rice that was originally disliked All of a sudden it became the object of everyone’s joy.

    “En.” Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who was elated, and his eyes were full of tenderness. In fact, if it weren’t for Chen Xing, their rice might never be seen, let alone be as popular as it is now. Oh his star, what a nice guy!

    When thinking about this, Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s eyes more and more softly.

    It seems that because Gu Lang’s eyes were too straightforward, Chen Xing stopped chattering, raised his head and looked at the man beside him. After seeing him staring at him for a moment, he suddenly stunned for a moment.

    Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang’s eyes were very familiar, every time Gu Lang wanted to kiss him, he would look at him like this, he suddenly became a little nervous: “What, what’s wrong? “

    “It’s okay, the rice in the backyard is selling very fast today, maybe we can close the store earlier today.” Seeing Chen Xing’s blushing face, Gu Lang calmly looked away, his tone Rarely brought a bit of tension.

    Seeing that Gu Lang didn’t want to kiss him, it seemed that the sight he was staring at just now was just his illusion. Chen Xing was a little disappointed for no reason. He lowered his head and replied softly. ,”Oh.”

    Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who was suddenly depressed, Rao was as smart as him, and he didn’t understand why Chen Xing, who was elated just now, suddenly became depressed again.

    Haoji Rice Shop in the city.

    The shopkeeper stood on the counter to check the accounts, and then looked at the people coming and going outside, and finally couldn’t hold back and called the second in the store, “How are you doing these days? Why are there so many fewer accounts on the ledger?”

      “

      , how come there are so many fewer people coming to buy rice all of a sudden.”

    Little Er looked at the shopkeeper’s expression of wanting to ask for guilt. He was sure that he really didn’t know about this matter, so he struggled for a while, and reminded cautiously: “Although there is no new I opened a rice shop, but there is a place that also sells rice now.”

    Listening to what he said, it was obvious that he knew something, and the shopkeeper became impatient, and immediately said: “If you have something to say, what’s the matter with such hesitation.”

    “Yes.” Seeing the shopkeeper’s anger, Xiao Er didn’t go around in circles, and said directly: “Then the Chen family restaurant didn’t know where it got a lot of rice, it’s really exceptional to cook it. Incense is not bad compared to high-quality rice, and the price is cheaper. Therefore, many people go to buy it.”

    The idea of ​​most people is that they can’t afford the food in it, so they can always eat their rice! Even he went to buy a little himself, and did it the way they taught. Don’t say it, the taste is so simple, you can’t forget it after eating it once.

      Their Chen family restaurant.

    Little Er looked at the changing face of the shopkeeper, and became quiet for a while. He himself thought it was quite ridiculous. The people above wanted to unite the rice shops in the county to embarrass the Chen family restaurant. As a result, they not only turned around to find Miyuan, but even turned around and robbed their customers. Wouldn’t stealing a chicken be a loss of rice?

    When the ignorant little Er left, the shopkeeper looked at the remaining rice with a particularly headache. The rice can’t be sold, and it will grow insects after a long time. Even if it is high-quality rice, I am afraid that it will not be able to sell even the lower-level price.

    The shopkeeper rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. When he refused to sell rice to the Chen family restaurant, he never thought that such a day would come. What can they do now?

    ###

    Until the store closed, Gu Lang still didn’t understand why Chen Xing was unhappy, but soon this matter was no longer important, because the old hunter gave them another copy Great gift, they even caught a deer.

    Chen Xing, who was distracted, suddenly forgot about the tangled matter just now, looked at the deer in front of him that seemed to be quite heavy, and looked at the old hunter in surprise and said: “You guys are lucky How is it so good? This deer doesn’t look like a good catch.”

      If you can’t see it, it’s even harder to catch it.

    The old hunter didn’t explain that much, he scratched his hair, and said a little embarrassedly: “I didn’t catch it, I was just entrusted by others to show the little boss. Watch it or not. This deer was just caught this morning, and it’s still fresh.”

    “Ah, that’s it!” Chen Xing heard the words and stopped asking. Since he traded with the old hunters, many ingredients were bought from them. Some villagers asked them to help sell things. Nothing to be surprised about.

    Chen Xing also asked casually, and then looked at the deer, seeing that it must have just died, he thought about it and decided to buy it, he can stay for a while Make medicated meals for Gu Lang, and sell the rest as finished products. After all, their store has already made a brand, and some people who sell medicinal foods should also be willing to buy them.

    Make up her mind, Chen Xing turned to look at the old hunter waiting there, and asked directly, “How much does the hunter plan to sell?”

    The old hunter rubbed his fingers and said a price they had ordered, “He wants thirty taels.”

    After saying that, the old hunter felt a little high. After all, the big wild boar sold so much last time. This deer needs so much, but the meat is not one-third of the last time. , is really inappropriate. It’s just that the hunter was injured in order to catch the deer, and he still needs to rest for a while. If he doesn’t sell a high point, his trip to remove the medical expenses will be considered a waste.

    Chen Xing pondered for a while, and obviously felt that the price was a bit high, but then he thought of something, nodded, and replied: “Okay, at this price, I want it. Also, please help me deal with it, help me get the blood of this deer, and then help me peel off the skin.”

    “Hao Le, no problem.” Seeing Chen Xing so happy, the old hunter immediately burst into a smile, pulling his son who was about to go back, together with the guys in the store , took the deer to the back to deal with.

    Seeing that they went to the backyard, Chen Xing turned to look at Gu Lang next to him, and said cheerfully: “I was thinking about doing something to make up your body during this time, and it happened that this was the case. Deer, when the time comes, I will save some for you to make medicinal food, and the rest will be sold in the store.”

    Seeing that Chen Xing thinks of himself even when he buys a deer, Gu Lang suddenly felt warm in his heart and looked at him with a very gentle look, then nodded and replied, “Okay, I’ll listen to you. of.”

    Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang like this, and suddenly felt a lot better. He smiled brightly at him, then glanced around and found that everyone had gone to the back, except for the two of them. There is no one else around. He took a step forward and came to Gu Lang. Before Gu Lang could react, he stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips, making a ‘boo’ sound.

    After the kiss, Chen Xing still felt very happy, but the blush on his face made him look a little embarrassed, he immediately retreated, before Gu Lang could react, Changed the topic and said, “Let’s go, let’s go back and see how they dealt with it. The deer blood will be taken back later. I will cook it for you to eat, and it can also support your body. The temperature has dropped recently.”

    Gu Lang subconsciously wanted to catch up when Chen Xing pushed away, but looked at Chen Xing’s blushing face, his raised hand slowly fell again, and finally he looked He nodded lightly and replied with a smile: “Well, let’s go.” No hurry, he will get it back in the future anyway.

    While Chen Xing was watching the old hunter dissect the deer, Master Chen also went to the trustee and finally met the Zhao family agent who originally did business with their family.

    When Mr. Chen saw the person coming, his brows were already slightly wrinkled, but he quickly realized what he was here for, and immediately put on a smiling face, moving towards The butler politely said:

    “Steward Feng, didn’t we all agree that we will provide silk from our side, and then you will pay tribute to it. My Chen family doesn’t want anything, I just hope that when Mr. Zhao hands it over, he can Said it was offered by our Chen family. Why, I have everything ready here, and I don’t want it all at once?”

      If the people above take a fancy to the silk of their cloth workshop, they will be able to make a name for themselves in the future. If I miss this opportunity, I don’t know when I will have to wait until next time to have such a good opportunity.

    The middle-aged man known as Steward Feng looked at the anxious Mr. Chen, but just raised his eyelids, with a bit of casual perfunctory on his face, “Master Chen, I can’t help it either. Ah, I’m just a follower of orders. I’ll do what the master above tells me to do. I don’t know what to do if you say that.”

    Master Chen heard the perfunctory meaning in it, and his heart became more and more anxious. Looking at him, he asked eagerly: “Mr. Feng is the confidant of Master Zhao, and now I can’t see Master Zhao. Feng Can the steward tell us a little bit about the promised deal, what is wrong with me, so I can fix it in time? If the deal doesn’t work out, it can’t be an enemy, right?”

    After finishing speaking, Master Chen seemed to have thought of something, took out a small purse from his cuff, and stuffed it directly into the hands of Steward Feng.

      It’s not my master’s problem, it’s said that my wife heard rumors about your young lady, so I stopped my master halfway and asked him to withdraw his intention to cooperate this time.”
