Chapter 24 The villain’s cannon fodder

"Shopkeeper Zhao." Lin Wan greeted with a smile.

"What are you doing?" Shopkeeper Zhao looked at her doubtfully, not believing that she was here to buy a restaurant. After all, she said she had no money yesterday. Could it be that she was really the wife of a wealthy family?

But I haven’t heard of any lady named Lin in the county!

"Shopkeeper, have you sold this restaurant?" Lin Wan said straight to the point.

"not yet."

Lin Wan's lips curled up, "I wonder if the shopkeeper can take me around the restaurant?"

Shopkeeper Zhao's eyelids twitched and he looked at Lin Wan in surprise. He came back to his senses after being reminded by the waiter and quickly took Lin Wan upstairs.

There was competition for business, the layout was good, and she was very satisfied.

"This is the backyard of the restaurant. My son and I usually live here. Don't worry, we will move out as soon as possible." The shopkeeper said after Lin Wan.

Lin Wan stopped and asked, "Are you sure you want to sell me the 3,500 taels from the shopkeeper?" The 4,000 taels from the shopkeeper were all sold at a low price.

But now she doesn't have much money on hand, and she will need to renovate it later. Although it is a restaurant, she is not in the restaurant business after all, and there should be more places to move.

If she bought it with four thousand taels, she would have very little money left.

The shopkeeper sighed, "Well, if you don't want it, you can only pay it to others." He knew what those people were thinking, they just wanted him to lower the price when he was forced to have no other choice.

"Then you write a contract and we go to the Yamen to handle the transfer." Lin Wan did not hesitate, the shopkeeper was so kind.

The shopkeeper looked at Lin Wan in disbelief, "Didn't you say you had no money yesterday?" Although he had a guess in his mind, he was still shocked.

Lin Wan smiled and said, "Yeah, I didn't have any money yesterday." Today I have it.

The shopkeeper came back to his senses and said, "Wait a moment, I will write it now." Lin Wan nodded. The shopkeeper quickly wrote the contract and took the land deed. The two went to the Yamen to handle the transfer of ownership, handing over the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other.

The owner of the restaurant was officially changed to Lin Wan.

After receiving the banknote, shopkeeper Zhao kept thanking Lin Wan with tears in his eyes. During this period, he experienced the ups and downs of human relationships. Except for two of his former friends, no one was willing to help him. But the hole was too big, even if there were

Even though the two of them helped him, there was nothing they could do to make up for it, and he couldn't drag others into trouble. Apart from the initial loan, he never bothered them again.

"I want to thank you." This was the truth. She didn't even know how much advantage she had taken.

Shopkeeper Zhao looked at her hesitantly, and finally said, "I'm afraid you will be hated by others if you buy this restaurant." After all, those people were waiting for him to sell it at a lower price, but now they have been stopped.

, I still don’t know how angry I will be.

After a pause, "Otherwise I will return the money to you."

Lin Wan waved her hands indifferently. She had expected it before buying it, but the bargain was so good that she couldn't help but be tempted.

She also didn't believe that those people dared to blatantly cause trouble. At most, they were acting behind the scenes.

She didn't expect that shopkeeper Zhao would say this. After all, he was in urgent need of money right now.

Now she has a better impression of Shopkeeper Zhao.

Shopkeeper Zhao became more and more convinced that Lin Wan was the wife of a wealthy family. Otherwise, how could he not care at all? In this case, he had nothing to worry about.

The two returned to the restaurant, "I will move out as soon as possible." Shopkeeper Zhao said, since it is someone else's territory, there is no need to hang around.

"What is the shopkeeper going to do when he leaves?"

"I don't know yet. Let's redeem my traitorous son first and then make any plans." Shopkeeper Zhao was a little tired and haggard.

Lin Wan smiled and said, "Since the shopkeeper doesn't know what to do, why not stay and be the shopkeeper for me? You don't have to move away, just live in the backyard."

Shopkeeper Zhao looked at Lin Wan in surprise, "You..."

"I bought the restaurant and planned to continue the business, but it happens to be short of a shopkeeper. If shopkeeper Zhao doesn't dislike it, he can stay. If you already have other plans, you can leave."

Shopkeeper Zhao thought for a while, "I do, thank you boss." This was his family's property for many years and he was reluctant to let him go. Even if the restaurant had changed owners, he was already very happy to be the shopkeeper here.

.

"Then shopkeeper Zhao will take care of things at home first and wait for me at the restaurant in three days."

"Okay." He said with some hesitation, "My boss, Er Zhu is usually very hardworking and honest..." Lin Wan said directly, "Then let him stay too."

Erzhu didn't react for a moment. Shopkeeper Zhao patted him on the shoulder and said, "What are you doing here in such a daze? Why don't you thank your boss quickly?"

"Thank you, boss, thank you, boss." Erzhu realized what he was doing and said hurriedly.

He didn't expect that the person in front of him actually bought the restaurant and became his owner.

Lin Wan waved her hand, "You go and do your own business first and come back in three days."

"OK."

After buying the restaurant, Lin Wan went to customize the things needed to open the restaurant. She specially customized a batch of pots and a batch of mandarin duck pots.

Draw your own pictures and design some tables suitable for eating hot pot, so that you can put charcoal underneath without scalding the guests.

After three days of busy work like this, at the time agreed upon with Shopkeeper Zhao, Lin Wan arrived at the restaurant. Shopkeeper Zhao and Er Zhu were already waiting in the lobby.

Lin Wan asked them to sit down and said with concern, "Shopkeeper Zhao, have you settled your family matters? If not, you can come back after you finish."

Shopkeeper Zhao shook his head, "I'm sorry for bothering my boss, it's been taken care of."

Lin Wan nodded, "That's fine."

Then he started to talk about his plan, and several people discussed it for a while. Shopkeeper Zhao was still confused, "Master, what exactly do you want to sell?"

Lin Wan smiled mysteriously, "Hot pot." She had looked at the entire Yunyang County and there was none. Gu Wensong would definitely have mentioned it if he had eaten it that day.

Even if there is, she still believes that she can occupy a place in Yunyang County.

Shopkeeper Zhao and Erzhu were confused, "You just do what I say when the time comes." After a pause, "Shopkeeper Zhao, please order a plaque as soon as possible. The name is Baiweixiang Hotpot Restaurant.

.”

"good."

"By the way, the tables here are for sale. We don't need them. I've already reordered them."

Shopkeeper Zhao and Erzhu were even more surprised, "Sold? These can still be used."

"I know it can be used, but we can't use it. I have designated a table and want to clear the space." After a pause, "Or you can use it if you want. Just clear the restaurant. Well, as for the stools,

Keep it, this can be used."

Seeing that Lin Wan was not joking, shopkeeper Zhao had no choice but to agree and became even more curious about what Lin Wan was going to do.

"The custom-made items should be delivered within the next two days. Shopkeeper Zhao, please remember to pick them up. As for how to display them, I will tell you later. By the way, we need to hire two more waiters."

"The hygiene needs to be kept clean. You can hire someone to do these chores."

"This is three hundred taels, shopkeeper Zhao, you can take the final payment when the time comes."

Shopkeeper Zhao quickly agreed, and Lin Wan left after seeing that he had nothing to explain.

She went to buy mung beans and soybeans to grow bean sprouts, and when she saw someone selling mushrooms, she also bought them.

In the next few days, Lin Wan was busy without touching the ground. She was still busy until the day before the opening. The opening time she chose was the day when Xu Mingcheng and the others were off from bathing.

They are also part of the family, there is no reason not to allow them to participate.
