The string houses in Liaodong Fucheng are located on Longqing Street. Although they are not on the main street, they are as prosperous as the main street.
Cheng Xue deliberately chose to come here at meal time, and sure enough, there were many diners waiting for a table, and everyone had a seat. There was a small table in front of it, with tea, melon seeds, and a few pieces of candy for those with children.
In order to further observe the house, Cheng Xue did not take out the sign or exercise her right to a private room as the second owner, so she just sat and waited.
So far, the service is very good. The requirements she wrote last time have been implemented very well here. Listening to the chats of the diners waiting for a seat, they basically praised the novel food here and the warm attitude. As the second owner, it is natural and helpful.
Rong Yan.
Lian did not take Sister Xuan with her today, so she moved very freely. After listening to others chatting for a while, she got up and went into the lobby to check the location. Li Yue and Li Tian also followed, looking at the packed seats and asking questions, listening to the familiar words
The local accent, the warm reassurance from the waiter, and the price on the water sign hanging on the counter...
No wonder the old people in the village often say "fallen leaves return to their roots", considering the price of food, they have to return to their roots.
Although all the food, drink, accommodation and transportation on the way north are at the inns, occasionally if you want to eat a steamed bun or something, you have to go out and buy it. In Liaodong, meat buns cost eight cents a piece, but outside you can only buy a steamed bun with vegetarian fillings.
They don't deserve it. Whenever they complain about the price of goods, they are full of expectations for the north. The further north you go, the cheaper it gets. I'm afraid the prices in the north will be even more pleasant.
After waiting for almost a stick of incense, I finally got a private room.
Cheng Xue completely thought that she was a diner who came to eat for the first time, and deliberately made things difficult for the waiter. It should be said that some of her behaviors could rise to the level of being beaten, but the waiter was polite and emotionally stable, and there was no such thing as
Not at all impatient or impatient.
After they left and the private room door was closed, Lian grabbed her arm and said in a low voice:
"I always thought that my sister-in-law was down-to-earth and peaceful, but if it were me in the situation just now, I would have become anxious with my sister-in-law."
Cheng Xue smiled and nodded, twirling the teacup and saying:
"So, it must be a steward brought by a wealthy family. Look at the training of these servants. They are all pretty good."
When Li Hui outside the screen heard this, he picked up his tea cup and drank water, with the corners of his mouth raised.
Is this considered making things difficult? He has seen with his own eyes the rich kids in the capital making things difficult for waiters with good looks, and the drunkards in modern restaurants making things difficult for waiters. Cheng Xue is obviously not hot enough, and he seems to have a bit of arrogance.
After a quarter of an hour, the skewers were served one after another, and the speed of the skewers was very good. There was no such thing as waiting for the first batch to be finished. The meat was freshly skewered and grilled, and the taste was very good. I can be sure that there was no substandard food here.
OK.
After the meal, Cheng Xue revealed her identity. When the waiter saw the sign, he hurriedly held it with both hands and went downstairs to call the steward. Li Yue and others also got up tacitly, led by Lian, and escorted home by Wenxi and Shunxi. Li Huai
He still wanted to stay a little longer, but faced with his second sister's bloodline suppression, he had no choice but to obey.
Soon, the steward of Fucheng Chuanwu walked into the house, and Cheng Xue bowed with his hands in hand——
"The second boss is good."
"You must be in charge of things."
"It's the villain who went back to the second boss's house. The villain didn't know that the second boss came here. It's really a neglect. I hope that the second boss will understand." After Tan Ming finished speaking, he saluted again, more solemnly than before.
They were the only ones in the room at the moment, so it was very convenient for them to talk.
Li Heng moved a chair to him and invited him:
"Steward Qin can just sit down and answer. My mother doesn't have that many rules."
"Thank you very much, young master." Tan Ming thanked him and sat down, then said, "Second boss, before the young master left, I specifically told you that when you come here, let me exchange the silver you deserve for what the north needs.
.The villain made the decision and changed into winter clothes ten days ago. It has snowed twice in the north, so you will definitely be able to use them."
"It's snowing now? It's not the Mid-Autumn Festival yet!" Li Heng was surprised.
Cheng Xue and Yan Yixin also looked shocked. Looking at Li Hui's calm expression, it was obvious that he knew.
"Young master, I don't know. Since the beginning of spring this year, our spring necks have been getting longer. It has been cold until the Dragon Boat Festival and only a few days of hot weather. The dog days of summer have never been hot. Now it's autumn again, and the autumn tigers haven't even seen it.
To..."
Tan Ming talked about the environment and climate here in Liaodong. The northern border is further north than Liaodong. It is not warm here, and naturally the northern border is not hot either. Thinking about the days when they were in the capital, the heat makes people feel restless.
Not to mention that the whole body is sticky, but there really is no harm without comparison.
"So how is our harvest this year? Is there a shortage of production?" Cheng Xue asked.
I really didn’t expect that my family would be in such a situation after more than half a year here.
Tan Ming knew the details of their couple, so he naturally understood why she was so panicked. They had so much land at home, and even if they became officials now, they would go to such a place where mice were crying to move, and food was their top priority.
The importance.
"Don't worry, second boss, we are doing fine here in Liaodong. There are no floods and no hail, so the weather is smooth. But according to the brothers in the caravan who came back from the north, things are not that good there. Not only are there floods, but there are also hail.
, it’s such a miserable mess. The villain is already preparing to collect the accounts before the year, and your share will be converted into grain, pork, etc., and transported to the north for you.”
After he finished speaking, he saw that she was silent. He mistakenly thought that he was being criticized for having too many things to do, so he hurriedly explained and added:
"Second boss, Mr. Li, I have nothing to say. Nowadays, most people in the northern prefecture have the temperament of 'muddling along, not wanting to endure hardship, and unwilling to work hard'. Of course, this cannot be entirely their fault, mainly because we are stationed here.
There are not enough troops on the northern defense line. Every time you try to live a good life, the other side comes to snatch it away, which makes the people there no longer want to live a good life.
I heard that Mr. Li is not only taking over as governor this time, but also strengthening the defense line in the north, so I will be pragmatic and prepare some things you may need. There will definitely be difficulties. Our eldest young master said that as long as we work together, there will be no problems.
It’s a difficult time that you can’t get over. Food doesn’t matter whether it’s new food or old food. I must prepare more and try to let you have a good year there.”
Cheng Xue, Li Heng, and Yan Yixin were all startled when they heard this. Looking at Li Hui, he was also full of surprise and disbelief.
"This is a top-secret matter. I didn't even tell my wife or children. You know it now?"
Tan Ming lowered his head and coughed violently. He couldn't hold it back and couldn't laugh.
"To be honest, Mr. Li, this matter has spread as early as last month. It is said that the northern capital is a special case. If the effect is good, several other lines of defense in Liangyan will be implemented in this way. It is also said that you brought
The emperor's order came, and the imperial court fully supported it, but the things distributed by the imperial court were still not strong enough, so the eldest young master asked the villain to help prepare."
