Chapter 270 There is no distinction between high and low
Su Zhao immediately looked where she pointed, and saw that there were probably hundreds of people in the queue. Some people left after buying something, and customers who came to buy things joined the queue. It could be said that there was an endless stream of visitors.
Su Zhao was quite surprised. After witnessing Qin Mian's so-called booming business, he still couldn't help but sigh: "The food made from soybeans can sell so well. How long do we have to wait in line to buy it?"
It should be noted that this place on the edge of Minghu Lake is already a relatively remote place, and the business can be so prosperous. It really makes her have a strong interest in the so-called 'tofu', and she can't wait to taste what delicious it is.
can attract so many people.
Qin Mian smiled and said: "The queue seems to be long, but they are digested quickly. Did the host see the bowls they were holding? They all brought their own utensils, paid the money, packed the food and left. It was very fast."
Of course, there are always customers coming, so there are always a lot of people queuing up. The business of this store can be kept coming from the time it opens to the time it closes. It is truly a rare and popular business!"
Su Zhao asked strangely: "Don't you provide a place for guests to sit and eat?"
Qin Mian: "I was also curious to ask about this. At first, it was set up. Later, the business was so good that if the guests slowly sit down to eat and drink, I'm afraid that even if we put the venue in our 'White Cloud Room', we can't accommodate it."
There were so many people. In the end, I had no choice but to come up with this rule. Of course, the place where guests can sit and taste slowly is still there, but a threshold has been set up, and one silver coin is required to enter and taste slowly. So.
First of all, except for the rich people who don’t want to go in trouble, most people would naturally prefer to queue up.”
Su Zhao nodded, understood, and asked again: "Are the things expensive?"
Qin Mian shook his head: "It's up to you to decide whether it's expensive or not. If it's expensive, it's expensive. If it's not expensive, it's not expensive. It's only ten copper coins per portion. If most people want to try something new, they can still afford it. If it's expensive,
, it’s just that the portion is a little smaller, I’ll give you a spoonful of it, but it’s actually only a small cup and costs ten copper coins. I heard that when it first opened, there were only five copper coins per cup.”
Su Zhao smiled and said, "It's a shameless shop. Seeing that business is good, the price doubled in a flash."
Qin Mian: "The store's explanation is not unreasonable. It is because the quantity is too large, so the price of soybeans in the city has gone up. As the cost has gone up, the selling price has also gone up."
"Oh!" Su Zhao nodded, "It makes sense. There don't seem to be many people growing soybeans. If you sell them like this, the price will naturally increase. But if the business is so good, aren't you afraid that someone will get involved?"
Qin Mian: "The backer behind it is the Huyan family! If you don't have any background, something will happen if the business is so good. Not to mention making trouble, reaching out, and being a little arrogant will not line up so honestly. Now you can do this
The rule is that someone can calm down the situation."
Su Zhao was surprised: "Would the Huyan family open such a store in such a remote place?"
Qin Mian: "I also felt strange at the time. I checked and found out that the real backer is Hu Yanwei, the youngest son of General Hu Yanwuhen. This restaurant and the big house behind it were taken over by Hu Yanwei. I heard that there was a certain person before.
Someone from the government came to ask for property, but after hearing the news, Hu Yanwei came and beat him to a disability!"
While we were talking here, the ship had already docked.
Qin Mian asked: "Master, should we pay to sit in and try it, or should we have people line up to buy it and bring it to us?"
Su Zhao hesitated for a moment, wanting to go into the tofu restaurant to have a look, but in the end he sighed: "Let's take it on board."
Qin Mian could understand that with this person's appearance, it would be too eye-catching to appear in a place like this. Being stared at by a group of men would make him feel uncomfortable eating, which would ruin his taste and appetite.
There is no shortage of eating and drinking utensils on this flower boat. Qin Mian took the white porcelain soup bowl with only a lid, went outside the cabin door, and ordered a maid to queue up to buy it.
Just like what Qin Mian said, the queue seemed to be long and the food was digested quickly. Before long, the maid came back with the soup bowl.
However, something unexpected happened at that moment. Three young men were galloping towards the lakeside. They rushed towards them in a line. The maid carrying the soup bowl couldn't even dodge back and forth. She was so frightened that she screamed.
Su Zhao and Qin Mian in the cabin looked back suddenly, while the four servants outside the cabin suddenly looked inside the cabin, watching Qin Mian's reaction. Once there was a signal, they would naturally stop him immediately.
However, Qin Mian did not make any move, not wanting to expose the identity of the monks around him on this occasion.
A horse suddenly stopped and almost kicked the maid's head with its hoof.
Bang! There was a crisp sound, and the maidservant was so frightened that the soup bowl in her hand fell to the ground and smashed to pieces. The tofu was splashed all over the floor, and she staggered back.
The other two horses rushing past also stopped suddenly.
The upright horse's hooves landed on the ground. The young man on the horse, holding a wine bottle and the reins and smelling of alcohol, looked at the maid, then looked at the flower boat parked next to it, and noticed the lantern with the sign "White Clouds" hanging on it.
He immediately burst into laughter, jumped off the horse, reached out and pinched the maid's pink chin, "Such a tender sister, why haven't I seen you among the white clouds before?"
The maid took a step back, turned around and left, but was stopped by the other two young men who jumped off the horse with their arms stretched out. The three of them surrounded her and teased her.
Qin Mian pointed outside, signaled to the servants outside the cabin, and waved her hand to signal not to cause trouble.
Two servants immediately went ashore and came to rescue the maid.
"I've fallen in love with this sister. I want it today and will send it back to you tomorrow. You won't be short of money." The young man carrying the wine flask picked up a money bag and threw it directly to the servant.
The first person handed back the money bag with both hands and said politely: "Master, this girl has not been trained yet, so we will not accept guests for the time being. Please tell me where the residence is, and I will pick a good one from the shop and send it to you later."
"Forget about those who put on makeup and makeup. I just see her as young and tender. It doesn't matter if she hasn't been trained well. I just like her."
The young man didn't accept the money bag, so he hugged the maid and was about to mount the horse and take him away. The maid was frightened and frightened, and she started crying.
The two servants were stopped by two other young men. The two servants had to look back towards the cabin window to ask for instructions on the next step.
At this moment, a tall young man on the side of the road came over and stopped in front of the horse with his hand to prevent the young man holding the man from putting the maid on the horse. He said in a deep voice, "Put the man down!"
The person who came was none other than Yuan Gang.
Yuan Gang suddenly appeared, and he was frightened by Yuan Gang's momentum. He frightened the young man and subconsciously put down the maid.
But when he saw what Yuan Gang was wearing, he was wearing homespun clothes with his sleeves rolled up and there was still dust on his body. He was obviously a hard worker. The young man immediately became angry and said, "Where does this ugly thing appear?"
Yuan Gang said calmly: "You are robbing a common woman!"
The three young men were stunned for a moment, and then laughed together. The young man facing them pointed at the maid who was holding the wine bottle beside him, "What kind of folk girl is she? Is she a bitch from 'White Clouds'?"
, they are just for sale, I spend money to have fun, how come I become a robbed girl?"
Yuan Gang asked the maid, "Are you willing to go with him?"
The maid shook her head in fear and tried to retract her arm, but was dragged to death by the young man.
Yuan Gang said: "You have also seen that if someone is unwilling, this kind of thing cannot be forced."
The young man was happy, "You told me that you can't force yourself on a bitch like this who is out to sell you?"
Yuan Gang: "Everyone is born equal. There is no distinction between high and low. She is not a bitch. If she had a choice, she would not do this. Since she is unwilling, please be kind and let her go!"
In the cabin, Su Zhao was serving tea and sipping it casually. For her, it was not difficult to solve some small things, so she didn't take it to heart.
However, the words outside the cabin made her heartstrings tremble inexplicably. She was stunned and slowly turned her head to look, her bright eyes staring at Yuan Gang seriously.
"Haha..." Several young people riding the horse couldn't help laughing. Yuan Gang's words were a big joke to their ideas. There are many levels of life. Who dares to say that all living beings are not high or low?
Well, isn't this a joke?
"Anyone who can say such a thing must be a pariah!" The young man pointed the jug in his hand at Yuan Gang, laughed loudly, and suddenly waved his arms and shouted: "Get out of the way!" and dragged the maid closer to the horse, trying to push Yuan Gang away.
.
Yuan Gang suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist. The young man grimaced in pain and subconsciously let go of the maid.
Throwing away the young man's arm, Yuan Gang easily pulled the maid over and escorted her to the flower boat.
Seeing Yuan Gang taking action, the young man's two companions couldn't sit back and watch. They immediately rushed over with their whips and whipped them wildly.
Yuan Gang conveniently blocked the maid behind him and allowed her to be whipped, but did not fight back.
The young man who shook his pinched wrist became angry, rushed over, and hit Yuan Gang on the forehead with the wine bottle in his hand.
The jug crackled open, and the wine poured down Yuan Gang's face.
Yuan Gang suddenly struck with his back arm. He didn't hit the opponent, but hit an arm-thick willow tree standing by the river with his arm.
Bang! With a loud bang, the willow tree snapped in half, and half of it fell into the lake beside it.
Qin Mian in the cabin muttered, "What a brute force!"
The three young men who wanted to continue beating him were stunned and did not dare to move their raised hands.
"Don't force me to take action!" Yuan Gang said coldly.
At this moment, there was a rumble of hoofbeats, and more than ten horses galloped over. They all reined in their horses and stopped. The leader, a young man who looked young but had a strong physique and a beard, shouted to Yuan Gang.
: "Brother An, what's going on?"
Qin Mian in the cabin reminded Su Zhao: "Hu Yanwei is here!"
The aura of the group of people who stopped was obviously unusual. The three young men seemed to know each other. When they saw the stranger, they actually treated the ignorant guy in front of them as brothers. They immediately panicked and lowered their raised hands. The young man who robbed the maid
He hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Master Huyan, there is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
Looking at the actions of the three people just now, and looking at the torn and open whip marks on Yuan Gang's clothes, Hu Yanwei's leopard eyes glared, no matter what misunderstanding you have, no matter what happened, just point a finger.
