Chapter 086 Planning to open a hot pot restaurant(2/2)
Zhou's family was noticed for almost three months, but they didn't find a suitable one, which gave Ji Wan a headache. You can't buy a piece of land to build a restaurant by yourself, right? The answer is undoubtedly no. First of all, the location, restaurants and inns must be in places with a large flow of people to ensure business. In such places, there is no vacant land at all.
She was worried about this, and even Guo Yan came to flee, she lost her former enthusiasm.
When Guo Yan saw him, he naturally had to ask, so Ji Wan said it simply.
"You want to buy a restaurant?"
"Um."
This year, I bought more than 10,000 ducks in each village, and I bought a lot in the market. After deducting various costs, I made more than 7,000 taels of silver, which was enough to buy a large restaurant.
"The largest restaurant in Dengxian County is Zuixianju. The business is very good. Especially in the past year, there are many new dishes, but there are not other restaurants and inns. Many restaurants are in a downturn. If you open a restaurant, it is very risky."
She didn't know that the new dishes of Zuixianju were provided by Ji Wan.
"I run an ordinary restaurant, and I don't have any conflicts with Zuixianju. Don't worry, I have a sense of responsibility."
Guo Yan knew that she was the one who was the one who was in charge of their business. After hearing what she said, Guo Yan didn't ask any more questions. After returning, she accidentally talked to Qiu and sighed: "Sister Wan is good at craftsmanship and everything is delicious. When she opens a restaurant, she might be able to compete with Zuixianju."
Qiu's mind was moved. Although she didn't care about the Jiang family's business, she probably knew what shops the Jiang family had in Deng County.
There are also restaurants in Jiang's family. But because they are not the main business, they have not spent much effort. In addition, there is also a strong enemy, Zuixianju, and the business of the restaurant in Dengxian County is not very good... She went to pay tribute to Mrs. Jiang that night, and then said her thoughts.
"Mom, didn't you say the restaurant business is in a downturn? It's better to sell it out and spend all your energy on other industries. The Zhou family started with food trading, and it's so popular. So, the sauce-flavored duck made by her big girl two days ago was sold to Yancheng. Maybe the restaurant will be brought back to life if it falls into her hands?"
Mrs. Jiang leaned against the beauty couch, lowered her eyes and listened quietly, without saying anything for a long time.
Sitting at the lower right is thirteen-year-old Jiang Ying. Mrs. Jiang left early. Jiang Ying was raised in front of the old lady at the age of eight, and her grandparents had a deep relationship. She looked at the Qiu family opposite. This stepmother took over the position shortly after her biological mother died. Just for this point, Jiang Ying found it difficult for her to accept the Qiu family as her stepmother. But after all, she was well educated, so she was very harmonious with Qiu family on the surface.
Qiu is also a virtuous stepmother, and she has never been biased in terms of food, clothing and expenses. She is very tactful and never asks about the Jiang family's business, and is dedicated to her wife of the Jiang family. It is precisely because of this that my grandmother gradually changed her view of her and even allowed her to take the child she gave birth to with her ex-husband to the Jiang family to live.
Five years have passed, and this Mrs. Jiang, who has always been low-key and cautious, is ready to reveal her fox's tail?
Jiang Ying had all guessed that Mrs. Jiang... She looked up at Mrs. Qiu, her eyes were a little sharp. However, Mrs. Qiu's expression was calm and her eyes were open, without any attempt to greed.
Qiu has been in the Jiang family for several years and has given birth to a child. She is cautious in front of her on weekdays and is considered filial and sensible. Mrs. Jiang has seen countless people and believes in her own vision. If Qiu was an ambitious person, she would never agree to her son to help Qiu.
Mrs. Jiang's scrutiny eyes did not stop for long before she took them back and said lightly: "You often run to the Zhou family, but can you find out their details?"
After living under Mrs. Jiang, who was strongly speaking, Mrs. Qiu had long been used to talking carefully before speaking. The old lady looked around and said nothing else. Mrs. Qiu subconsciously began to think about what she meant, and then said: "I probably know."
Mrs. Jiang didn't look at her, took a sip of tea, and said casually: "A few days ago, her mother-in-law came to live for a month, but her reputation was ruined within a radius of ten miles. The daughter-in-law and mother-in-law were incompatible, but the mistakes were all from mother-in-law. What she got as a daughter-in-law had a good reputation... This woman has a very simple method."
Mrs. Qiu's heart skipped a beat and she was cautious and did not respond.
Mrs. Jiang looked faint, "Her daughter is a smart girl. But at such a young age, it's always inappropriate to show up everywhere."
At this point, Qiu completely disappeared.
Seeing her lowered her head and silent, Mrs. Jiang did not dare to refute her. She looked like a well-behaved and gentle little wife, and smiled, "What are you doing so nervous? I didn't say I wouldn't agree."
Mrs. Qiu was stunned.
Jiang Ying was also slightly surprised and then smiled knowingly.
My grandmother just knocked on Qiu properly to prevent her from having undeserved ambitions.
"Tomorrow you bring that little girl here and I'll take a look."
Mrs. Qiu was stunned again.
If it was just to implement the restaurant, Mrs. Jiang could have left it to the people below to do it, and she didn't need to see Ji Wan in person.
As if she had seen through her thoughts, Mrs. Jiang said lightly: "Not anyone can do business with our Jiang family. I have to see if the little girl has the ability to decide whether to make a restaurant for her."
Actually, this is completely unnecessary.
When a restaurant sells it, it recoups a certain amount of cost. As for how the buyer uses it in the future, whether it makes a profit or loses, it has nothing to do with the seller.
Qiu vaguely realized that his mother-in-law should have other concerns.
She thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I haven't discussed this with my sister of the Zhou family yet. Why don't I talk to her first tomorrow and hear their thoughts?"
Mrs. Jiang looked at her with a smile, not saying anything.
Qiu was not sure what his mother-in-law planned, and Jiang Ying didn't understand. Unlike Qiu's carefulness, Jiang Ying, who had always been favored by Mrs. Jiang, asked directly after Qiu left, "Grandma, is there anything wrong with the Zhou family?"
Mrs. Jiang was so fierce that she faded away in front of her granddaughter, and she was more of the kindness and tolerance of her elders.
"On the first day after I moved from Zhou, many officers and the prefects from the north sent gifts. I knew that this family was not simple, so I allowed your mother to visit. Zhou, a girl who was commended by the emperor for inventing gloves, was very capable. I sent someone to inquire about it. Among the three brothers of the Ji family, only the dead second brother passed the scholar. It's a pity that his destiny was not successful, and he died young and his future was broken in the middle. It's a pity. His wife was not a local. She is said to be a lady from a family and somehow married a poor scholar. The two mothers and daughters even went to the county government to sue their mother-in-law."
Jiang Ying didn't know about these things later, but when she heard her grandmother talked about them, she was shocked.
"Surrendering my mother-in-law? This...this is too..."
The four words "disobedience and unfilial" are wrapped around the lips and teeth, and they are not said in the end.
"How did the county magistrate judge?"
Mrs. Jiang smiled meaningfully, "Then Liu is also a vicious person. It's fine if you treat your daughter-in-law harshly on your usual attitude, but you almost killed Zhou's youngest daughter for a few dollars... The magistrate sentenced her to jail and detained. Her youngest daughter-in-law died in such a sentence. Zhou should be concerned about the rumors and took the initiative to revoke the lawsuit against Liu."
Almost killed someone...
Jiang Ying was frightened when she heard this. How could the petite lady who had been raised in the boudoir since she was a child have heard of such bloody things? What's more, Zhou's daughter is also Liu's granddaughter. Liu was so crazy, no wonder she was sued in court in the end.
"Since my grandmother knew their details, why did she still meet that big girl Ji?"
This is what she is most puzzled.
Mrs. Jiang smiled, her eyes a little sad and dull. Looking at her granddaughter's tender and young face, she didn't say what she planned.
"It's getting late, you can go back and rest, and we'll talk about it later."
Although Jiang Ying was puzzled why her grandmother stopped halfway through her words, she was obedient and did not ask questions. She was so kind that she was blessed with her blessing and took her maid away.
After she left, Mrs. Jiang ordered to Shang's mother who was serving by her, "I'll let Brother Yuan come over tomorrow and I'll have lunch."
