Chen Nian showed joy when he saw Hai Mingxian. He was familiar with the customer's mood and knew that this was not a false statement but a heartfelt expression of emotion.

"How?" Although he knew the other party thought it was delicious, Chen Nian still asked again.

"It's so delicious. I've never eaten pastries of this flavor before. Let me have another one." Hai Mingxian said excitedly.

Then Chen Nian cut another piece and handed it to Hai Mingxian: "Young Master Hai, use it slowly." After that, he looked at the other party, "I wonder if this thing can be given as a gift to Grandfather?"

"But, that's great. Such a big longevity peach can definitely be placed in the most conspicuous place by then, so that everyone comes to see it." Hai Mingxian said.

Although Lu Ke's eyes are a little unemployed and idle all day long, he is also from an official family, so he can naturally distinguish between good and bad.

Chen Nian couldn't help but say, "I can do it bigger. Now it's only the size of a washbasin. At that time, there are many guests in the palace, and I'm afraid there will be no enough..."

"Okay, okay." Hai Mingxian was very excited, "Then it's a blessing for Brother Chen. Otherwise, I'll get you what materials you need. Otherwise, making such a big birthday peach would probably be of great value, even if you were you

The gift I gave, but I also want to express my feelings."

Chen Nian even showed joy after hearing this. Unexpectedly, Mr. Hai was so well-informed. Not only did he accept the longevity peach quickly, but he also offered to pay for the materials.

"This is not a big deal. After all, it was a gift from us. If you ask Mr. Hai to purchase the materials..." Although Chen Nian couldn't agree to it at night, he still had to be more reserved in life, so he said deliberately.

"Where are some places, I often need to pay for customizing some snacks, not to mention such an important occasion? And it's just some materials, how much money can I spend? In my opinion, it's a few times more money.

Not as good as your craft, Brother Chen.”

Seeing this, Chen Nian had to agree: "Okay, then there will be Mr. Hai, but the recipe and method of this longevity peach are confidential. I hope Mr. Hai will not tell me. After all, Lu Wanxing's dim sum shop has been targeted by many people now.

Now there are thousands of fruit cakes in the dessert shops in Chang'an, which is the best example."

"Don't worry, I, Hai, must be as tight as a bottle."

"I believe in Mr. Hai." Chen Nian said with a smile.

Although Hai Mingxian had been talking to Chen Nian throughout the process, his mouth never stopped. He only saw him finishing the meal and continued to cut it himself.

Chen Nian didn't say anything when she saw that the other party liked to eat. Although the cake was valuable, it was worth it to give it to the other party.

However, Chen Nian had not given a piece of cake to her cousin, so he asked Hai Mingxian to eat it in the kitchen, and then he cut another piece into the plate and brought it to her front for her cousin.

Lu Ke was filled with joy when he saw this cake, and his eyes lit up after eating.

After a while, Chen Nian returned to the kitchen, and the cake just now had almost one-third less than that!

This scared Chen Nian.

"Young Master Hai, why have you eaten so much?"

Hai Mingxian raised his head and grinned at Chen Nian: "This thing is so delicious. The sweet and sour inside is soft and delicious. I think I can eat more."

"Don't! Mr. Hai, we won't be like this. No matter how delicious the food is, you can't eat it like this. You just had lunch at noon and have eaten so many cakes now. I'm afraid your stomach will be broken by then.

”

"Keep the green mountains here, don't be afraid of not having firewood. There are many opportunities in the future. Don't eat it again today." Chen Nian quickly advised him, he was really afraid that Mr. Hai would eat it here and make his stomach pierce.

When the Hai family comes here, they will be unable to express their hardships.

But Hai Mingxian wanted to continue to defend something, but in the end, due to Chen Nian's determination, he did not continue to eat. But even though he got up and took two steps, he suddenly felt a little disgusting, but at least he could still control himself.

.

"It's true that I didn't feel like I was sitting just now. Now I've all my food fallen off as soon as I stand up, stuffing my stomach full."

Chen Nian felt a little speechless. Why did this person look stupid and didn’t even know how hungry and full?

But Chen Nian suspected the other party's sexual orientation problem, so he was unwilling to go forward to support him, otherwise it would be a big deal if he really wanted to be refuted to him?

Now there are only two of them left in my family, and I and my cousin, but I was harassed by this guy, so I couldn't stay in the capital.

When he came to the front hall, Hai Mingxian praised Chen Nianhao again, and said that in the future, their Hai family's birthday party would be responsible for Lu Wanxing's dim sum shop.

Lu Ke was happy to hear this. Although she never looked down on this man very much, at least he was praising his younger brother now.

Finally, Chen Nian wrote all the amounts of the various materials needed to Hai Mingxian and asked him to take them back and prepare them.

Then I only waited for the old man of the Hai family to celebrate his birthday in half a month.

...

Chen Nian felt that Lu Wanxing’s dim sum shop was about to become popular in the capital!

If the plaques given by Your Majesty before were just an honor and a golden sign, then if it goes well this time, you can successfully enter the upper circle of Chang'an.

Compared with these two, one is to continue to bring attention and traffic here, and the other is to actively start spreading in that circle.

It is foreseeable that after they come back from the birthday party, they will definitely be discussing this. Some people may also start inquiries. When they find out about Lu Wanxing’s dim sum shop, they will not say that they will order from here next time they need it.

It seems that the puff and sour plum soup I have studied now also need to enter the venue faster. When the birthday party ends half a month later, it is just the time when the weather in Chang'an begins to get warmer.

At that time, more and more people will come to buy snacks, just like the Honghong Hotel at the time. It was just a small fire at the beginning, but with the spontaneous publicity of customers, more and more people have already arrived later.

The storefront has to be expanded.

If Lu Wanxing’s dim sum shop really reaches that level, it will definitely need to expand its store.

When Chen Nian thought of this, he turned around and asked Lu Ke: "Sister, do you think they would be willing to sell it if I want to buy shops on both sides of us?"

Lu Ke probably understood what Chen Nian meant. She thought for a while and said, "No, I usually have some contact with them on the shopkeepers on both sides, but I don't seem to have heard of them having the idea of ​​selling shops recently."

Chen Nian nodded: "Then I'll go back and ask, if they want, then we can just scale up."

Lu Ke knew Chen Nian had this idea: "It's okay to expand the scale, but we are only two of us. If the store is expanded, we are the only two of us who may not be busy."

"It doesn't matter if you're too busy. Chang'an City is so big and you're worried about not being able to find someone?"

"What if they are our opponents? Wouldn't we let them learn our skills at that time?"

"This possibility is not small." Chen Nian nodded and thought for a while, and suddenly thought of someone, "By the way, I'll go find Fu Xin and let him invest in the stock at that time. In this way, we have a background.

, Although he has to share some of the money he earns, he can also let him pay."

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you." Lu Ke patted Chen Nian on the shoulder and said solemnly.

Now she feels that her younger brother is becoming more and more reliable, and she has even become the level that she needs to rely on in a short period of time, but this feeling is actually good.

She did not object to Chen Nian's proposal, because the more famous Lu Wanxing's dim sum shop is, the more money he earns, it is easier to be targeted by those who are interested. Now it is just other dim sum shops in Chang'an City. If you have it in the future, you will find it.

After the aristocratic families where the imperial officials were located were targeted, they might have to consider it.

After all, it would be easier for them to destroy a shop in Chang'an City.

Moreover, Lu Wanxing’s dim sum shop now basically makes money whoever invests in it. Looking for Fu Xin to help it is undoubtedly like giving him money. Fu Xin helped her find her younger brother before, and she often comes to take care of the business, even if she can help him.

nothing.

But Fu Xin may be a little busy recently. Chen Nian plans to look for Fu Xin in a few days. In the past few days, he will study puff and sour plum soup, and then go to the shops on both sides to ask if they are willing to sell the shops.

Chen Nian spent a lot of money after coming to the capital. Now he still has nearly 100 taels of silver, while his cousin has about 600 taels of silver, which adds up to about 700 taels.

Their shop is a relatively prosperous place in Chang'an. The courtyard next door is larger than theirs. If you want to buy it, it will cost about 300 taels.

This price also fully takes into account the location advantages, and the homeowner may increase the price part when selling it. Otherwise, if you buy it normally, about 200 taels will be enough.

With their current money, they can even leave a lot of money to purchase goods, purchase materials and decorate the new courtyard.

Every time this happens, Chen Nian will feel the unevenness of the world. Rich people often spend thousands of taels of tens of thousands of taels of silver, but now they have a lot of it.

But, money is earned slowly. If others can get so much money, it is also a real accumulation of people.

Moreover, Chen Nian felt that it was useless to make so much money here. The reason why he continued to release new products here is to merge and buy the yards on both sides was because he wanted to leave his cousin before he left this dream.

Some valuable things.

Chen Nian began to think about buying the land on both sides. On the other hand, Fu Xin received unanimous recommendations from both sides after chatting with Prince Jing and Prime Minister Yang Gongfu of the Great Xia.

So he now told Xia Huang Li Xu about his plan in the imperial study room. Li Xu listened very seriously. Just as Fu Xin was telling him, Li Xu was also constantly asking questions.

When Fu Xin finished speaking, he was already sweating profusely. As expected, His Majesty was too difficult to deal with. Before, whether it was teacher Yang Gongfu or Prince Jing, they would ask questions, but they would never be so frequent.

If you ask questions, basically, if you say a few words to your Majesty, you will have problems.

"Good, this method is very good, but you thought of it?" Li Xu said while looking at Fu Xin aggressively.

Fu Xin sat down with his eyebrows down and didn't dare to look up.

"Raise your head and answer me." Li Xu continued after saying the words just now.

Fu Xin raised his head and saw Li Xu's serious and cold expression at a glance!

That's it. When I was in the palace examination, His Majesty looked like this from afar. However, there were many people in the palace at that time, and the exam was what he was best at, so he was not nervous at all on the scene.

But now there are only two people in the room, and for some reason he couldn't say the word "is a minister" when he was right.

Wouldn't that be a deception to the emperor?

"I am a friend of the minister, but he is just a commoner. If he comes forward, it may lead to death, so I did not say it clearly."

After Fu Xin finished speaking, he regretted it. He originally didn't want to give the old ones, but His Majesty was too majestic just now, which made his mind blank at that time.

At the same time, he also sincerely admired the great masters who could not change their faces when they saw His Majesty.

"Who is it?" Li Xu couldn't help feeling disappointed when she heard that this idea was not Fu Xin's suggestion, but she was still a little curious about who was not in the court and could have such an opinion. Moreover, this method is more than just good, that's simply a matter of

That's great!
