There are two plates of cold dishes on the small stone table in the backyard.
Chen Gui arrived first and only poured a glass of wine. After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the courtyard door opened and Jing Dadan and Gao An arrived.
"I'm late, I'm late," Jing Daduan put his hands in his hands, his fat face full of joy, "On the way here, we happened to meet the uncle's house going to Xu Guogong's house to return the wedding ceremony, and the two of us couldn't help it.
, I went to see the excitement, but I’m late.”
When Chen Gui heard this, he was also happy: "It won't be too late, I won't be able to go and see it. Please tell me in detail later."
Hao Tong asked Jing Dafan to tell him, and Chen Gui paid close attention when he went out.
What if I bump into Duke Xu’s face...
The other side looked like they didn’t dare to add another twist to the drama, but the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and the rabbit bit someone in a hurry, and they caught the "witness evidence" that the Chengyi Mansion was tampering behind the scenes. Did the Xu Guogong Mansion really just ignore it?
It’s better to be careful to avoid causing more trouble.
When everyone arrived, several hot dishes were served one after another.
Jing Dadu smelled the aroma, and said to Chen Gui and Gao An: "Even though they are engaged in the non-greasy antique business at the front, here at the back, the shopkeeper's first-hand dishes are amazing!"
Chen Gui was very impressed and took the chicken with chopsticks.
When put into the mouth, the skin is smooth and the meat is tender, oily and not greasy.
"It's really good!" This compliment is not flattery. Chen Gui admits that he has eaten in restaurants all over the capital and also dined at Uncle Chengyi's house. He has a very knowledgeable mouth and is really impressed at this moment.
There are good dishes and good wine, and we are in high spirits when talking about the excitement.
"It's a ceremony of counting outside the Duke's mansion."
"Xu Guogong and his wife's faces were completely dark, and the third lady didn't even give them a look."
"The Jingdong family and I yelled a few words, and Xu Guogong glared at us. There were so many people that he didn't even notice us."
Chen Gui raised his head and drank several cups.
My dear!
Is that still the third lady he knows?
You are so patient!
After talking about the fun, let’s get down to business.
Jing Dafan said: "I have decided to set off in seven days, and it will be winter when I come back. During this period, it will be hard for you two to deal with Laoshi Lane."
"In any case," Chen Guidao said, "making money is hard work."
Gao An also nodded in agreement.
"We still have to say thank you. If you hadn't made thorough preparations before, we wouldn't have been able to start construction as soon as we got the deed." Jing Dabao said.
Looking for prices and comparing prices is the most energy-consuming.
Hutongs and alleys that may be requisitioned by the government in the coming year have also been investigated one by one.
The articles of association were clearly laid out, and the large amount of work that Jing Dabao originally prepared was no longer necessary, saving time and energy.
"The Duke is also easy to discuss. We came up with ideas and charters, and he accepted them all." Chen Gui said with a smile.
The one who said that if you are a hands-off shopkeeper, you should be a hand-off shopkeeper. There is no nonsense.
If the bosses who invested money were so easy to serve, he, Chen Gui, would have been rich long ago.
I'm just afraid that those who don't understand and still give blind orders will lose money and end up in trouble.
When Jing Dafan heard this, he almost choked on his drink.
The Duke is not easy to negotiate with, but his original idea coincides with that of the princess.
When he saw the charter that Chen Gui took out that day, Jing Dabao was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
What kind of fate is this!
Gao An had a keen eye, so when he saw that the wine glass was empty, he refilled it for the two of them. This time, it was poured upside down, and the wine bottle was also empty. He got up and went to the kitchen to refill it.
"This matter," Jing Dafan saw Gao An leaving the table, thought about it and said, "Since we are doing business together, I will definitely not hide it from you.
The Duke of Guo had already thought about what he would do for a living after buying Laoshi Alley.
He didn't raise any objection to the princess's charter, but he thought of it too.
After repairing it, we will lend it to the Yamen. The gold medal will be released next year, and then we will rent it to students studying in Beijing."
Chen Gui was amazed when he heard this: "Smart people all have the same vision when doing business! With such knowledge and vision, if they don't get rich, who will?"
Jing Dafan chuckled.
He didn't say this just to hear Chen Gui praise the Duke for his intelligence. He wanted to find help.
The Duke has been talking to Shen Chen for the past two days, so there must be someone who can talk to the princess, right?
"Brother," Jing Dadan sighed, "do you think the princess and the Duke have a clear understanding of each other?"
Subconsciously, Chen Gui wanted to echo a few words.
As the night wind blew and the smell of alcohol lingered, he suddenly reacted to Xia Jing Dafan's words, and his head immediately froze after nodding.
Is this how the word is used?
An unmarried man and an unmarried woman seem to be doing fine, but apart from being the boss and second boss of the business together, the man and woman have no relationship with each other.
Inappropriate, not very suitable.
Chen Gui looked at Jing Dafan hesitantly: Jingdong probably drank too much and his speech was not so refined.
When Jing Dafan saw the look in his eyes, he knew that there was no chance for the time being.
How can the people who work around the master have such unclear eyes and unclear minds?
Dong Chen’s family still needs money!
Gao An came back after getting some wine, and the topic returned to the renovation of Laoshi Lane.
We drank a lot that night, and at dawn the next day, Jing Daduan and Gao An went to Laoshi Alley to supervise the work again.
Chen Guize visited Chengyi Bofu.
After hearing about Chen's deeds yesterday, when he met the person now, he couldn't help but praise him, which made Chen very happy.
"Is that what others said?" asked Chen.
"They all say it's awesome." Chen Gui gave a thumbs up.
Lin Yunyan listened with her cheek propped up and praised her from time to time.
"I said you can do it, do you believe it this time?"
"They are shameless. The more polite you are, the more they push for it. If you don't give in, they will have to weigh it."
"You have to have more confidence in yourself. Our integrity is not afraid of shadows. Since we are justified, we should straighten our backs and throw them in their faces."
"Really, grandma?"
Xiao Duan:……
Can she say no?
Chen Gui stood up and left, leaving only his family in the house.
Lin Yunfang was peeling peanuts in her hands, and she kept laughing, so much so that her red peanut coat shook to the ground.
Mrs. Chen saw it and signaled her with her eyes.
Lin Yunfang did not panic at all: "Mom, you are so capable, why didn't I see it before?"
"It's rare for me to do that..." Mrs. Chen quickly answered.
"If you have one, you have two. You will live up to your expectations the first time, and you will be even more powerful in the future," Lin Yunfang muttered, "But let's be honest, your power must be used against others. Don't do it to me. My heart is fragile.
If you look at me with a sullen face, I will cry."
Mrs. Chen laughed and scolded: "Why are you crying? You have cried louder than Yun Jing and Yun Yan since you were born, as if no one has ever heard it."
Lin Yunfang gave Xiao Duan all the peeled peanuts, made a face and ran away.
When she left Zaishouyuan, she heard Lin Yunyan calling her, and Lin Yunfang stopped.
"Why are you running?" Lin Yunyan stepped forward, "Grandma and aunt have already shown their behavior once, and now it's your turn."
Lin Yunfang was stunned for a moment, then pointed her finger at the tip of her nose: "Me?"
"How come?" Lin Yunyan asked her, "We are all making progress, but you, the youngest, have to stand still?"
Lin Yunfang suddenly became curious: "What does the second sister want me to do?"
"Simple," Lin Yunyan said directly, "You have a handkerchief with Uncle Yunyang's granddaughter Zheng Liu, right? I want to get to know her."
