Next, Liu Jun was very busy with his work. Although they were small things, they still required him to make decisions. When he had some free time, he had to find leaders to learn their special skills. Finally, after three days, the house Liu Jun wanted to build was finally completed.
He also had some free time.
When Liu Jun arrived, a circle of people had already gathered around the snack bar. Some were attracted by passing by, and some came here from other places in the county. Liu Jun looked over and unexpectedly saw a familiar face in the crowd.
, but it is Luo Tong.
Seeing Liu Jun looking over, Luo Tong avoided his gaze. Liu Jun was confused and glanced around him. Although an old man deliberately did not look at Liu Jun, he could not stop the girl next to him from following Luo Tong.
After thinking about it, Liu Jun made a rough guess, but did not call him. He first looked at the built house in front of him.
The main body is made up of trees in the mountains. The innermost part is a house surrounded by three walls, with a stove, a desk and the like built inside. Outside the house is a large shed with ventilation on three sides, and the bottom of the shed is full of things.
There were tables, chairs and benches, and a tall wooden pole was erected outside the shed facing the road, with banners embroidered with green pine on one side fluttering in the wind.
Liu Jun has never opened a restaurant. There are more than 20 tables under the shed, which can seat 100 people. He is not sure whether such a kitchen can feed so many people. But so far, it seems that it is doing pretty well.
Liu Heizi and Wang Laoer had been waiting nearby for a long time. When Liu Jun looked over, they followed immediately.
Liu Jun looked at the people watching around him, and when he spoke, his voice became louder: "For the rice and vegetables used for cooking in the store, priority is given to those grown by the orphans in the village, but there must be a lot of shortages. Ask the nearby villages
If anyone here is willing to deliver vegetables to the store, the price will be based on the normal market price in the county and will be settled daily. However, the vegetables must be good. If there is still a shortage, we will recruit people to cultivate nearby and grow them ourselves."
Liu Jun has already said what he said and given the opportunity. Those who are willing to change will naturally come. He cannot force-feed others by opening their mouths, nor does he have the intention.
After finishing the matter here, Liu Jun walked towards Luo Tong and the others. Luo Tong looked embarrassed and raised his hands, but didn't know what to say. Unexpectedly, Liu Jun ignored him at all and walked straight to the old man, clasping his fists.
salute.
"But Mr. Shen Feng of the Double Sword Sect?"
The old man blushed and clasped his fists in return: "The evil traitor Luo Tong, I don't know the etiquette, and I hope Master Liu will forgive me." This is completely treating Liu Jun as an equal to himself, or even a figure with a higher status. Of course,
After the farce in the county town, no one would treat Liu Jun as a child anymore.
Liu Jun held his hands lightly: "What did the old man say? Brother Luo helped me a lot in the county. No matter what, I will not blame him for a small matter of honor."
The old man looked at Liu Jun's expression repeatedly to confirm that Liu Jun was not just saying polite words. He turned around and saw his apprentice flirting with his daughter. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "I don't know how to teach. I'm old.
I can't do anything humane and sophisticated at all. Compared with Mr. Liu, I'm really embarrassed."
Liu Jun said: "The old man is ridiculous. I am only a teenager. Although there are many people who are in charge of the family at this age, I am far less worldly. In my opinion, it is not enough for a person to be too worldly."
Well, I'm always worried that I don't have so many circles in my heart. When dealing with people who are too sophisticated, I may not be fooled anytime. What can I say about Brother Luo's character? He is flexible and flexible, simple and direct, but I
like very much."
These words made Mr. Shen Feng almost shed tears. He had been raising his apprentice for half his life. If others don't care for him, he has problems like this. However, in the sect, he respects his master and cares for his younger brothers and sisters. Although It was a bit out of tune, but it also made the old man very satisfied.
Sometimes you don't have to praise someone personally. If you praise his son, he may be happier. In the old man's heart, Luo Tong is probably closer to him than his daughter. After all, this is the person who wants to pass on his own sect.
After the old man was excited, he remembered the purpose of his visit, wiped his eyes, called his apprentice and daughter over, and introduced Liu Jun: "Luo Tong, my eldest apprentice, I don't think there is any need to introduce him. This is my daughter, Shen Panqiao. I want to ask Mr. Liu for something. I want to let my apprentice and daughter learn some ways of doing things from Mr. Liu while I can hold on for a few more years. Of course, I also I won’t let Mr. Liu’s family worry about it for no reason, I will pay fifty taels of silver every year for their daily expenses.”
Of course, these are just polite words, and Liu Jun will not take them seriously. Luo Tong is what Liu Jun really wants. From this person, Liu Jun seems to see a simpler version of himself. He hopes that Luo Tong can grow into his fellow man in the future. , As for Shen Panqiao, I don’t know yet.
Liu Jun quickly refused: "Old man, you are too polite. When Brother Luo comes to my little brother's place, if you pay for food, isn't that a slap in the face? Besides, I am really short of manpower here. I'm afraid Brother Luo is here." You have no time to spare, are you still worried that Brother Luo will have nothing to eat?"
But Mr. Shen Feng's attitude was really firm, so Liu Jun could only take a step back: "Well, sir, you have also seen that I am currently planning to provide food and accommodation for merchants and travelers at the foot of Qingsong Mountain. There is only this one at the moment, and I will definitely do it in the future. It will expand. Mr. Shen, you should also know that merchants passing here basically go to Linshui County Wharf. From here to Linshui County Wharf, it takes about fifty miles. For a normal person to walk, it may take two or three hours. Trucks It will be even slower. If they miss this place, they can only sleep in the wild. Master, if you insist on paying, then I will count your half of the shares in this store, and I will make actual adjustments when I open a new store in the future."
The old man understands that the apprentice's affairs can still be regarded as his personal behavior, but once he buys shares in this snack shop, the entire Shuangdao Sect is tied to Qingsong Mountain. Thinking of the bad things he encountered before coming here, the old man bites Gritting his teeth, he agreed.
After the old man left, Luo Tong and the others followed Liu Jun to see how he planned and provided services for the snack shop, which were not limited to steamed buns, broth herbal tea, and livestock fodder. They also handled several complaints and accepted several bold proposals. Suggestion. After he finished his work and drank a pot of herbal tea, he looked at Luo Tong.
"Tell me, did something happen?"
Luo Tong always felt frightened in front of Liu Jun for some reason and was speechless. His junior sister was more daring. She gave Luo Tong a blank look and said:
"Didn't my senior brother block the entrance of the county government office that day? But when you left, he left alone. Some people in the county were short-sighted and thought that he was not from the same place as you in Qingsongshan. However, he offended the government office, so , according to the contract they made before, these two days they would rather pay liquidated damages than have any relationship with the Shuangdao Sect. The master had no choice but to send us here, thinking that if we take advantage of Qingsong Mountain's power, the situation in the door would be better. There are many.”
As his thoughts flashed, Liu Jun smiled and said, "I don't mind if you guys come to take advantage of Qingsong Mountain. It's just that Qingsong Mountain has a bad reputation and it's easy to get on board. I'm afraid it will be difficult to let go of the relationship in the future." After a pause, he turned around. And comforted them, "Don't worry too much. Qingsongshan can still suppress the county government. Even if they want to make some small moves, they have to consider Qingsongshan's reaction. I would like Mr. Shen to be a coach in Qingsongshan." , the swordsmanship of your Double Sword Sect is simple to get started with, but it has its own merits if you practice it to a deep level, but it is suitable for improving the basic martial arts of Qingsong Mountain."
Shen Panqiao opened her big eyes and stared at Liu Jun curiously: "Are you preparing to rebel?"
Luo Tong on the side heard this, his lips were trembling and he wished he could cover his junior sister's mouth right now.
Liu Jun smiled bitterly: "What are you talking about? The truth is. There are only a hundred or ten soldiers in the village, so how can we rebel? Our place is quite stable. We just heard that refugees have appeared in the nearby state capital. No matter what we want to do, To protect yourself, you still have to protect those nearby, and being able to fight is the last word."
"Refugees? Are they almost here?" Luo Tong exclaimed. He once sent a long-distance escort and saw the scene of refugees crossing the border. Now he still shudders when he thinks about it.
The thin and yellow-skinned people all over the mountains and fields are like locusts, gnawing away at all the grains in the ground, whether mature or immature. Even the bark of the trees has been ripped off, and the white and tender parts inside have been crushed into paste and eaten into their stomachs. Hope. Looking at their eyes, Luo Tong could even feel that he seemed to be in their recipes.
