"It's empty talk, and I'd like to ask the captain to go to the restaurant with the chief shopkeeper to establish a written record."
Lin Jinxiao was determined to steal the money from him, so Tang Ru had no choice but to follow Sang Kun to the restaurant secretly, fearing that the princess would chase him out.
Chu Nanzhi looked at this scene and felt dumbfounded.
I really didn’t expect that a pretty boy could be so sinister, defrauding people of ten thousand taels of silver every month for no reason.
Even if Lin Jinqian makes a restaurant better than himself, earning a net profit of ten thousand taels per month from a restaurant is not an easy task.
With the guarantee of these ten thousand taels of silver, even if all the restaurant's business was taken away by the princess, she seemed to think it wouldn't be a big deal.
Hey, this pretty boy is much more sinister than me.
It's not enough to deceive someone else's sister, now you also have to deceive someone else's money.
If it were his own choice, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
Tang Ru still agreed so calmly, which shows that he is an extraordinary person.
When the two got on the carriage and left Qinghefang, Chu Nanzhi opened the curtain and casually looked at the spacious shop opposite. It was indeed a big deal. It would cost a lot of money to buy so many shops directly.
That Princess Qian doesn't look like a business owner, and she can't bear the slightest grievance. I really don't understand how she can run a restaurant.
It may not be easy for her to lower her eyebrows and bend her waist to please someone she doesn't like.
Besides, the dishes in her restaurant are not only delicious, but they are still novel. If she opens a restaurant across from her, she may not be very competitive if she relies on the old tricks of the Qi family.
Chu Nanzhi was thinking about some of the problems he might encounter next.
After Princess Qian's restaurant opens, if she continues to use Qi's dishes, it will have some impact on her own restaurant in a short period of time, but she is still confident that she can keep the princess's momentum going.
Coupled with the amount of money Tang Ru makes up every month, this potential loss is completely negligible.
She doesn't feel any pressure even if the whole garden is left idle.
I'm afraid that Princess Qian will imitate her own restaurant business.
The superficial things can be imitated, but the inner things cannot be surpassed.
Chu Nanzhi suddenly thought of Tang Yuanxi's entry into the palace. This was indeed very strange.
King Qinghe is Princess Qian's biological brother, and he and Lin Jinxiao are both princes of the foreign vassal. Now Lin Jinxiao is gaining momentum, and even the kings in the capital are beginning to be wary of him. How could Princess Qian want to let the Tang family marry Lin Jinxiao for no reason?
?
This is somewhat unreasonable.
Not to mention that Tang Yuanxi is still the pearl in Tang Yao's hands.
Is it to win over the pretty boy?
But Princess Qian's attitude didn't seem like she was trying to please her.
The Tang family also recommended many officials to the state capital. It was obvious that they wanted to monitor the pretty boy and compete with him. Since the relationship was so tense, it didn't seem like they were trying to win over him.
Could it be for the recipes of these dishes in your own restaurant?
Chu Nanzhi suddenly thought of this.
After all, it was Princess Qian who facilitated this matter on behalf of Tang Yuanxi. If she wanted to wrong her sister-in-law to serve with sex because of some important matter of King Qinghe, she didn't seem to have such deep connections in the city. After thinking about it, she could only do it for the restaurant formula.
Small things as big as sesame seeds and mung beans can make her work hard.
Well, this is in line with Princess Qian’s temperament.
Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but sneered. Not to mention that the recipes for the restaurant's final dishes were firmly in the hands of his confidants. Even if Tang Yuanxi could pry open the mouths of the two sisters and Madam Li Ce, he could still come up with many tricks.
How could she steal it all?
Thinking of this, Chu Nanzhi found it even more interesting and couldn't help laughing.
Lin Jinxiao was startled by her sudden laughter and looked at her blankly.
Although she always likes to be distracted, she is always thinking about the case and does not make people feel fussy. But at this juncture, her husband is being forced to take a concubine, and she can still laugh.
It's really heartless.
Pursing her lips in frustration, Lin Jinxiao asked coldly: "Chun Nanzhi, do you really have a husband in your heart?"
Chu Nanzhi was thinking about the fierce fight with Princess Qian when she was interrupted by Lin Jinxiao's inexplicable question. She quickly raised her head and looked at his somewhat angry and resentful expression, and said with a blank expression: "Of course I have you.
Yes, if I didn’t have you in my heart, how could I agree to continue to stay with you, even today?”
After hesitating for a long time, she was really too embarrassed to tell her what happened in the guest room.
Lin Jinxiao looked at her flirtatious expression and couldn't help but feel his face heat up when he recalled his love affair with her. Then he realized that she had given everyone to him, so she would not treat him badly anymore.
Rolling his eyes at her angrily, Lin Jinxiao curled his lips and asked, "Then why are you giggling?"
"I"
Chu Nanzhi didn't want him to interfere with her and Princess Qian's affairs, so she had to turn to talk about Tang Ru's affairs: "Why do you suddenly think that the lion has made so much money from the Tang Governor? Are you not afraid that Princess Qian will come to you again?"
trouble?"
"The Tang family has a great business, so why should he refuse the money that comes to his door?"
Lin Jinxiao answered calmly, looking at her still full of doubts, and then his tone became more sincere:
"You want to build a racecourse. All the money you have in hand is handed over to Shaofu Yin, but it is only enough to buy half of the horses. I heard Erlang said that after you have saved enough money, you will buy another batch of horses. Such a huge amount, every month
How can I afford it if I don’t have tens of thousands of taels of silver? I can’t help you exploit the people for this. Is there anything wrong with exploiting these less loyal subordinates?”
After hearing this, Chu Nanzhi finally understood. It turned out that the pretty boy became the sixth child because he was worried about his own horse farm.
This was a bit difficult for him. This guy has never been someone who is willing to bend for money.
Leaning gently on his shoulder, Chu Nanzhi deliberately teased: "Why, are you feeling distressed again?"
"Can you not feel bad?"
Lin Jinxiao still hasn't figured out why she raises so many horses.
Even if I have a hobby for horses, I won’t go to such a big trouble, and I’ll buy war horses from the North.
He always felt that his wife was still hiding something from him.
When she proposed this idea that day, she asked how many cavalrymen and how long it would take to reach Jinling City. Could it be that she was planning to lead troops into Beijing?
This is a treasonous thing.
The worries in Lin Jinxiao's heart gradually became heavier.
Although she is his true love, he cannot let her do such treasonous things.
"Chu Nanzhi, I will not object to raising as many horses as you want in Pingning Prefecture, and I am willing to help you to the best of my ability. But you must not have any wrong ideas. Everything we have now is the result of His Majesty and His Majesty.
Given by the Empress Dowager, as a minister, you must be loyal to the minister."
Staring at her deeply, Lin Jinxiao said earnestly: "Even though the kings in the capital have been fighting for so many years, no one has ever dared to be rebellious, let alone a prince from a foreign vassal like his husband."
"I have no intention of being disobedient."
Chu Nanzhi saw that he was so disgusted with this matter, and cautiously reminded him: "But if one day Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager are in trouble, and you are asked to join the King of Beijing, how will you make a decision?"
