After staying overnight in Xie Haoyun's yard, Xie Haoyun asked Cao Yuan to drive Zhuang Yan and Liang Xiaonan back to Yu County early the next morning.
Liang Xiaonan said in surprise: "Didn't you say we would go back to Yu County together?"
Cao Yuan said: "Mr. Xie is not feeling well. He found a famous doctor in the provincial capital and made an appointment to see him today."
The appointment with the doctor must not have been made just this morning. Yesterday, we said we would go back to Yu County together just to persuade them to stay and entertain them. Xie Haoyun acted with integrity!
In the morning, Cheng Gang came to the villa. The chef made a lot of snacks. He sent breakfast to Mr. Xie's house and said that he had something to give to Liang Xiaonan.
Liang Xiaonan said: "I don't want the things anymore. I have been taking money from you, and I still want to thank you!"
Cheng Gang Maitreya Buddha smiled kindly and said: "Xiao Liang, I don't give away my things for free! Take a look and take it with you if you like it. The price is negotiable. Just give me potatoes in exchange."
When Liang Xiaonan heard that he wanted to sell her a rare item, he said happily: "Okay, I'll go take a look now."
Cheng Gang led the way, and Cao Yuan followed in the car. When they arrived at the hotel, they asked Cao Yuan to wait downstairs. She and Zhou Yan followed Cheng Gang in.
There was a vegetable cellar in the backyard. Cheng Gang took them down to the vegetable cellar. Behind the piles of cabbage, he uncovered a basket covered with plastic sheeting. Cheng Gang pulled it out and opened it in an open space.
Show it to Liang Xiaonan.
"These things were given to me by a person who came to eat. He said they were passed down from his ancestors. The family couldn't open the pot anymore, so he used this request in exchange for a few meals. I don't know if they are worth it. Anyway, it cost a total of money to give him meals.
50 yuan.”
Liang Xiaonan saw the Xijia Plate at the first sight. He held it in his hand and looked at the writing on it carefully. Alas, he was such a prodigal. This kind of object should be regarded as scrap copper.
I looked at other items, including small bronze tripods, daggers, and ancient coins.
She doesn't understand antiques. No matter how capable she was in her previous life, she was only good at one field. How could she know so much!
She had only heard and seen fragments of information about these good things while traveling, attending parties, and browsing the Internet, and she had seen the master's grief over the treasures being destroyed as scrap metal.
"Manager Cheng, I'm not an expert either. These things look very nice and can be used as utensils. I want them all. Please give me a price for how much you need!"
"That person ate my 50 yuan meal, how about you take 50 yuan?"
Liang Xiaonan said: "Okay, we will send potatoes up in two days and bring you half a sack."
Even half a sack weighs 100 kilograms.
Cheng Gang was so happy that Maitreya Buddha's eyes turned into slits, and said: "Thank you! You don't know that in this provincial city, there are many down-and-out children who have some things at home. They are too poor to survive, so they exchange for some items every now and then.
It's useless for me to collect these things, and I'm taking risks. If you like them, can I just collect them?"
"Harvest!" Liang Xiaonan was so happy. Isn't it just potatoes? She has a spatial spiritual spring and can ripen them in minutes, so she only has to work hard to plant and harvest them.
Cao Yuan didn't ask what was in her backpack. When she came back, she stuffed the basket into the trunk and drove back to Yu County.
Cao Yuan's driving skills are very good, but the roads are too bad. There were expressways in her previous life. Now wherever there are expressways, asphalt roads would be good. Quite a few roads are still dirt roads.
It was constantly bumping, and from time to time we had to give way to people from the production team who were leaving work, and be on guard against people, bicycles, cows, etc. that came out from time to time.
She and Zhou Yan were both sitting in the back seats. Zhou Yan boldly grabbed her and asked her to lie in his arms.
"Lie down, don't get carsick."
Liang Xiaonan was lying in his arms. He was so stiff that he didn't dare to move. He just secretly stroked her hair with his other hand, feeling that the hair was fragrant, soft and smooth.
Cao Yuan drove a 300-kilometer road for a full six hours before returning to Yu County.
When I returned to Yu County, I went directly to Wanghulou Hotel without saying anything. I was very hungry after the bumpy ride.
When Cheng Gang was away, the lobby manager was still Zhao Ying. She was indeed very capable. She also managed the store in an orderly manner when Cheng Gang was away.
When she saw Cao Yuan's car stopped, she knew that a distinguished person was coming, so she happily came up to him and opened the door respectfully. However, as soon as she opened the door, she happened to meet Liang Xiaonan's eyes.
"Why is it you?" She was stunned for a moment, and her eyes quickly turned into contempt. This country girl, who was a scheming accounting manager in the past, is now clinging to a noble man?
Zhou Yan became unhappy when he heard this: "What do you mean? We can't come to eat? Is this what Cheng Gang said?"
Zhao Ying looked at Cao Yuan. This man was probably a driver. He was dark and short.
Look at Zhou Yan again. Isn't this the young man who sold pheasants here? He hangs out with Liang Xiaonan and deceives Manager Cheng. He is not a good person.
Is Liang Xiaonan here to eat, or is she a partner of her own store? She couldn't clearly offend him, and said sarcastically: "You go in to eat, Manager Cheng is not here."
The three of them didn't want to argue with her, so they went in, found an empty table, and ordered Zhou Yan.
Zhao Ying continued to greet the guests in the lobby. This was Cheng Gang's request. Public stores are indifferent to customers. They are private stores and must have a good attitude. Make the guests feel the superiority of "God", and the number of repeat customers will increase.
more.
There were not many customers in the store, so the three of them ordered four dishes, including scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised eggplant, fried garlic, twice-cooked pork, and a bowl of fish head and tofu soup.
Eating now is a real meal, and the attention to ingredients is better than any high-end restaurant in the previous life. There is no waste oil, no shoddy ingredients, no fancy decorations, just a big plate of real dishes.
All three of us liked rice and ordered a large bowl of rice.
While I was eating happily, I saw a jeep parked at the door through the window glass. The door opened and two people walked out.
One is Wei Xishi, the other is Zhang Xinyi, followed by the driver Xiao Ning.
Zhao Ying greeted her with a bright and decent smile: "Leader Wei, you are so beautiful today!"
Wei Xishi had undisguised disgust on his face, and he didn't look at Zhao Ying. He asked arrogantly: "Are you still keeping the private room upstairs?"
Zhao Ying was a little embarrassed and said awkwardly: "Leader Wei, that room is occupied today, but you can go to Haitian Yise. That room only opens when our manager invites the senior leader, and it is not open normally."
"Okay." Wei Xishi took Zhang Xinyi upstairs and said as they walked, "Do you still have those potatoes? Can you show me what they are?"
Zhao Ying said ashamedly: "I'm sorry, that one is gone for now. This year's new potatoes haven't arrived yet!"
"I heard that your potatoes are provided by Liang Xiaonan from Dakeng Village?"
"Yes, it's her..." Zhao Ying quickly glanced into the hall and found Liang Xiaonan looking at her with wide, watery eyes. She immediately turned her face and said to Wei Xishi, "We have many signature dishes in the store.
You’ll know after you try them all.”
Leader Wei is interested in potatoes?
Also want to buy potatoes from Liang Xiaonan?
Zhao Ying avoided Liang Xiaonan and said, "Liang Xiaonan has signed an exclusive supply contract with our store for that potato, and you can't buy it elsewhere."
Wei Xishi said: "The potatoes have arrived. Leave a bag for me and I will pay you according to the price of your cooked vegetables."
They said and quickly went upstairs.
Cao Yuan put down his rice bowl, wiped his mouth and said, "Comrade Xiao Liang, I'm full."
