It has been a month since Xia Jin came to the capital. Although there were some hiccups in the plan when he came, overall, it went much smoother than expected.
The slave status has been settled and the house has been purchased. The next step is to open the Shishentang branch.
Xia Jin was sitting under the grape trellis in the yard, holding a cup of milk tea in her hand, when Shiji hurried in.
"Boss, we found the right store!"
Xia Jin stood up from the recliner and said, "Let's go take a look!"
At the intersection of Xisheng Street, in a dilapidated tavern.
The boss is a frail scholar, fair and fair, with the arrogance of a scholar in his eyebrows. There are actually four big words in this tavern, "Please do not make noise"...
"In half a year, it will be time for the scientific examination. I have to prepare for the examination comprehensively, and I need money to raise money, so I plan to sell the entire tavern. You already know the price, right?" Lin Boru said.
"Chef Qin has already told me the price of eight thousand taels of silver," Xia Jin said.
Linbo came out of the counter, holding the book in one hand and holding the other behind his back, and said calmly: "This price is already the lowest. If you think it's okay, let's trade it today. If not, don't waste each other's time.
"
After saying that, he began to read the book in his hand, as if his time was precious and he was not willing to waste it at all.
Si Ji pulled Xia Jin aside and whispered: "My boss, we don't seem to have that much money..."
"Master, don't worry about the money!" Qin Hao'ou walked in, holding a wooden box in his hand.
"There are eight thousand taels of silver notes inside, please click on it!"
Lin Boru took the box and said with a smile: "Chef Qin's reputation in the capital is very good, I can trust him!"
With that said, he handed the house deed to Xia Jin.
"From now on, this is yours! And I'm going to take the exam for merit!" He said and strode out.
Xia Jin walked around the tavern. There were spider webs on the beams, holes in the floor, the pillars were eaten by insects, and the kitchen in the back was so dirty that it was hard to get in.
No wonder almost no one comes to this pub. Given the environment, it would be better to drink on the curb than here.
"It needs to be renovated inside and out!" Xia Jin sighed.
"Just leave the decoration to me!"
In modern times, when he was still a little kid, he was bullied by the agency and bullied, and his masters rushed out to protect him like a kid.
At that time, he vowed that when he grew up, it would be his turn to protect and help his master!
Now, finally there is a chance!
Xia Jin didn't look outside, nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
"Don't worry, Master, I will definitely give this place a new look and make it the most popular food hall in the capital!" Qin Hao'ou patted his chest, looking eager to try.
With Qin Hao'ou watching over the decoration, Xia Jin felt relieved. The two discussed the decoration style and drew drawings. By the time they were completed, the sky had darkened.
Xia Jin and Si Ji returned to Yalin Residence together. As soon as they entered the bedroom, they saw lights on inside.
"Why is there someone in the house?" Si Ji was a little scared.
"Go and have a look." Xia Jin picked up a stick.
Xia Jin was stunned when she opened the door and went in! "General?"
Lin Ziyi hadn't been here since that drunken moment, and his sudden appearance shocked Xia Jin.
Lin Ziyi looked at the stick in Xia Jin's hand, "It's so late, where have you been?"
"I plan to buy a store in the capital and open a food hall." Xia Jin threw the stick and clapped her hands.
"Do you have enough money?" Lin Ziyi picked up the tea and took a sip.
Xia Jin's heart was pounding. She thought Lin Ziyi would be angry. After all, Xia Jin did this behind his back. Unexpectedly, he was not angry. Instead, he asked if the money was enough. For a moment, Xia Jin was confused.
Get overwhelmed.
"My boss borrowed some money from someone, and now it's enough!" Si Ji came out to smooth things over.
"How much did you borrow?" Lin Ziyi put down the teacup and frowned slightly.
"Eight thousand taels of silver, there should be more in the future." Si Ji was bold, but if you listen carefully, your voice trembled slightly, this girl was extremely nervous.
"I will ask someone to bring the money tomorrow..." After saying that, he looked at Xia Jin and said seriously: "In the future, if you need money, just tell me, or go to Mu Gu, don't go find someone else."
For those who are concerned, the capital city is very big and chaotic, and there are many bad people."
Xia Jin blinked and said obediently.
Lin Ziyi frowned and said, "Sit down."
Xia Jin walked over and sat opposite him.
Lin Ziyi looked at Xia Jin with complicated eyes, "That night... nothing happened to us, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Did the general come here specifically to talk to me about this?" Xia Jin looked at him.
"Well, I need to make it clearer after all." Lin Ziyi nodded.
Xia Jin chuckled, her tense body relaxed a little, and the conversation started immediately. She asked: "I was drunk that night, so I didn't do anything excessive to the general, right?"
Lin Ziyi's brows twitched, and he couldn't say the word 'no'.
However, when she mentioned this matter, she reminded Lin Ziyi that this woman's drinking was too bad. If she went out drinking and met other men, the consequences would be disastrous. Not all men have the same iron willpower as him.
Thinking of this, he said: "You are not allowed to drink alcohol in the future."
"Can I have a drink?!" Xia Jin only had this little hobby, so she just had a drink to get a little tipsy.
Seeing Xia Jin's pitiful look, Lin Ziyi said helplessly: "Even if you want to drink, you can only drink in the house, not outside!"
Xia Jin nodded like garlic, "Okay, okay, I will listen to the general!"
Lin Ziyi's lips curled up into a smile, amused by the way she nodded her head.
He was already handsome, but his smile was like the frozen pool melting, reflecting the beautiful scenery of water and sky, which only made people's eyes brighten!
As if he noticed that he was losing his temper, he coughed slightly and stopped laughing, "It's getting late, I have something to do, so you should rest early."
"General, are you going to train troops?" Xia Jin asked.
"Yeah." Lin Ziyi nodded.
"General, wait for me!" Xia Jin trotted to the kitchen, opened a simple refrigerator made of saltpeter ice, and took out a cup of milk tea.
"This is for the general to drink on the way!"
Lin Ziyi took it and felt cold to the touch.
"What is this?"
"This is called milk tea. Drinking it can replenish your energy and make you feel better! However, you can't drink too much at night, otherwise you won't be able to sleep! So I gave you a small cup, not a big cup."
"There are also some small cakes here, which are good for a midnight snack if you are hungry at night."
Lin Ziyi took the food box from Xia Jin. He was wearing heavy armor and had a sword on his waist, but he was holding milk tea in one hand and a small cake in the other.
