When it was dark, Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin returned to the small courtyard where they rented. When they entered the courtyard, they saw the landlord, Uncle Li, boiling water on the stove outside the kitchen door.
Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin said hello to Uncle Li.
Uncle Li also responded with a smile.
Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin walked towards their rooms. Maybe Ge Lianghua heard their greetings to Uncle Li just now.
Ge Lianghua's door opened, but the first person to walk out of the door was Ge Liangcai, who was smiling.
Ge Lianghua fell behind.
"Xiaodao, you guys came back quite late. I thought you wouldn't be back tonight!" Ge Liangcai joked.
Comrade Xu was surprised to see Ge Liangcai here at this time.
His pace slowed down, "Cousin, why are you here?"
Ge Lianghua, who had just come out of the room, answered for Ge Liangcai, "He came with me specifically today just to find you!"
Ge Liangcai answered, "Yes! Xiaodao, please open the door first! We will go to your room to talk."
Xu Tongdao's mind raced and he guessed two possibilities.
Either Ge Liangcai came to ask him to help rent a store nearby. He still remembered that Ge Liangcai said at the end of last year that he would open a store in the red light street this year.
Or, it was for his senior brother Huang Anmin to contract the kitchen of Zhiweixuan.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Ge Liangcai came here for the above two things at the same time today.
"good!"
Comrade Xu quickly walked to the door, took out the key, and opened the door.
At this time, the voice of the landlord, Uncle Li, came: "Xiao Xu! If you want to boil water, hurry up and bring the water bottle!"
"I got it, Grandpa Li!"
Tongdao Xu agreed, went in and put down his luggage, and tilted his head to Xu Tonglin who followed him, "Lin Zi, get the water bottle quickly! We just need to get some boiled water to drink, and we need to soak our feet in the evening!"
"Hey, okay! I'll go right away."
Xu Tonglin agreed readily, put down his luggage and left immediately.
Comrade Xu was left in the room to greet his two cousins.
"Cousin, sit down! Don't be polite when you come to my place. Sit down quickly!"
"Hey, good!"
"Um."
…
The only one who really sat down was Ge Liangcai. He sat down on the edge of Xu Tongdao's bed, while Ge Lianghua leaned on the door frame, lowered his head and lit a cigarette, with a look and say nothing.
"Cousin, why did you come to me specifically today? By the way, is it about borrowing money you mentioned last time? If so, just tell me! I will go get it for you tomorrow."
Years ago, when Ge Liangcai mentioned that he wanted to open a store after the year, he told Comrade Xu that he wanted to borrow some money from him.
At that time, Comrade Xu agreed immediately.
Not to mention the relationship, just that Xu Tongdao opened a shop before, and Ge Liangcai lent him five thousand.
Now that Ge Liangcai was about to open a store, he wanted to borrow money from him, but he had no reason to refuse.
"Well, borrowing money is one thing. Also, I came here today to ask you to help me find two adjacent stores. They should be about the same size as your barbecue restaurant. Haha, after all, you spend more time here.
Come on, you must know better than me which part of that street has better business at night, right?"
Ge Liangcai did not beat around the bush and stated his purpose directly.
And his purpose did not exceed Xu Tongdao's expectations.
Therefore, Comrade Xu agreed happily, "Okay! Then I will accompany you to see which shops are currently for rent, and, by the way, cousin, how much do you want to borrow this time? Just tell me
I'll pick it up for you tomorrow morning!"

Ge Liangcai smiled, with a very happy smile on his face, "Okay, okay, okay! I know you can rely on Xiaodao! So, do you think... five thousand is enough?"
At first he lent 5,000 to Comrade Xu, but today he only borrowed 5,000.
Comrade Xu couldn't help but take a high look at Ge Liangcai.
This kind of consciousness is worthy of admiration.
He has seen people who unconsciously open their mouths like a lion when borrowing money from others.
"Is five thousand enough? If not, I still have it here!"
Ge Liangcai was self-conscious, and Comrade Xu became more generous.
Because of Ge Liangcai's self-consciousness, he believed that if he borrowed more, Ge Liangcai would definitely pay it back in the future.
Ge Liangcai grinned and shook his head, "That's enough! Thank you for your kindness, but five thousand is really enough, so I'll borrow this much from you first! If it's not enough, I'll tell you later."
Comrade Xu smiled and nodded, "Okay! Anyway, don't be polite to me. If you have any difficulties, just tell me."
Ge Liangcai: "Okay! Definitely."
…
While talking, Xu Tonglin came back with two bottles of boiled water.
He was also alert. As soon as he got the boiled water back, he immediately took teacups and tea leaves to make tea for everyone.
Comrade Xu casually asked Ge Liangcai and Ge Lianghua if they had eaten at night.
When they heard that they hadn't eaten yet, they said they would go to his store to eat later.
A few days ago, on the night he declared a holiday, he shared some of the leftovers in the store with everyone and took them home.
But what was distributed to everyone was mainly due to the vegetables that were not sold out, as well as the prepared lamb and other cooked vegetables in the refrigerator.
There are also some uncooked ingredients in the refrigerator, untouched.
No, they drank a cup of tea in the house, and then went to Xu Tongdao's barbecue restaurant together. They cooked a few simple dishes and opened two bottles of Erguotou. The four brothers sat in the store eating, drinking and chatting.
The atmosphere is very good.
Because they were sure that Ge Liangcai would open a store here, they chatted and naturally talked about the business direction of Ge Liangcai's new store.
Comrade Xu asked Ge Liangcai what he wanted to sell.
Ge Liangcai didn't hide it, "I want to open a dog meat restaurant! There is an old saying, if the dog meat rolls three times, the gods will not be able to sit still! We all grew up in the countryside, and we all know the local dogs raised in the countryside now.
Quite a few. It doesn’t cost much to buy a native dog. It’s very cheap! I’ve thought about it. When I open this restaurant, I will ask my dad to collect native dogs for me in the countryside. It’s just right! I can also make dog meat.
It’s done well, so, haha, that’s it!”
"Dog meat restaurant?"
Comrade Xu was quite surprised.
What's even more surprising is that... after Ge Liangcai said what he just said, Ge Lianghua suddenly added: "Xiaodao, you don't know, in fact, your cousin Liangcai wanted to start a mutton restaurant at the beginning! In recent years, he has actually
The mutton was cooked more, but after thinking about it for a few days, he felt that if he opened a mutton restaurant, he would steal business from you, so he changed his mind and decided to open a dog meat restaurant!"
"Yeah?"
Xu Tongdao actually believed it in his heart, because he first learned the skill of making mutton from his cousin Ge Liangcai.
Although he later thought about it on his own and improved many methods, he knew very well that he learned the basics of making mutton from Ge Liangcai.
Ge Liangcai grinned and shook his head, "It's okay! Anyway, I make good dog meat, and if you buy local dogs from the countryside, it's much cheaper than buying mutton at the market. This cost can save a lot of money, which is pretty good.
