Chapter 244 Supporting the Prince
Author: Pony Crossing the Bridge
After introducing the snacks, Qin Lu ordered someone to post a notice, and then said to the diners who were taking away: "The daily portion for take away is one hundred servings. We will put a sign at the door. If it is gone, it will be gone, so everyone
Be sure to pay attention to the sign at the door. There are only a few copies left today, just enough for a few..."
After Qin Lu told the diners, she asked A Ming to make the brand bigger.
With Qin Lu's appearance, the operation of the shop soon returned to normal, and diners could enjoy their meals with peace of mind.
Qin Lu saw how busy the shop was, and she made a plan in her mind, knowing that she should expand the shop.
It's not that she hasn't looked at the storefronts nearby, but she just hasn't found the right one. Now this is what gives her a headache.
At this time, all the cooperating teahouses and restaurant owners came to find him.
Seeing them, Qin Lu wanted to run away, but several people worked together to surround her. Seeing that she couldn't leave, she looked at them with a playful smile and said, "Everyone, shopkeepers, why do you have time to come to me?"
"
"Shop Manager Qin, are we working well together?"
"That's right, isn't it good?"
…
Several people came up and asked questions. Qin Lu didn't know what to say because of what they said. She reluctantly nodded and smiled, "Yeah, but what's wrong with you?"
Qin Lu was actually pretending to be confused. How could she not know why they came?
These people have been looking for her a lot in the past few days, asking her to get more snacks, but where does she have time now? The business of teahouses and restaurants has improved, and their demand for snacks has increased. This is also
It was reasonable, but now she really felt that she couldn't finish all this even if she had all the resources.
Qin Lu looked helplessly at the few people and sighed, "I know, I know what you want me to do, but I really don't have time now."
"Just tell me, what difficulties did you encounter?"
"That's right, we are all old acquaintances, and we will help you."
"really?"
Qin Lu saw that everyone was serious, so she became serious.
Naturally, she wanted to ask for something, but she didn't know if these people could help.
"Just tell us and we'll listen."
"Two things. One thing is that I need to expand my shop now, but I can't find a suitable place. The second thing is that I want to know if any of your relatives have become officials in the court and can listen to your family members...
"
"Officer? What's wrong?"
The matter of this shop is easy to talk about. As long as they work together, they will definitely find a shop that satisfies Qin Lu. However, the official she mentioned made them a little at a loss.
When several people looked at each other, Qin Lu sighed again, "Actually, it's not a very important matter. It's just that King Zheng is working for the welfare of the people, but many officials have been attracted by some people and do not support him. He
Many of his proposals were not supported, such as tax reductions..."
"This is a good thing. In fact, our business is not so good every month. If the farming season is busy or there are natural disasters, our business will also be affected..."
"Yes, if this can really reduce taxes, it will be a good thing for us."
"The two of them are challenging the king, and they plan to implement some things that will allow the people to earn more money!"
The reason why Qin Lu dared to support Qin Tieniu so blatantly was because she knew that some of his actions were for the people.
"These are all good things, but the ministers don't support them?"
"Not all, but some ministers were threatened and did not dare to support King Zheng."
"We understand, this is the Crown Prince's business. Concubine Xiao's mother's family is running sideways in the capital. They are the kind of people who can eat meat themselves and don't want others to drink soup. Unexpectedly,
Even the prince is such a person."
"If you ask me, it has to be King Zheng. After so many years, he has just started thinking about us as soon as he came back. This is not something ordinary people can do."
"I support the prince. I have a relative who has just joined the court as an official. I told him, don't worry, I will protect his family and he will definitely support the prince."
"I don't have any relatives who are officials, but there is a fifth-rank minister who comes to our restaurant often, so I can get a feel for what he has to say."
…
Everyone's words to me are all sincerely for Qin Lu.
Qin Lu was instantly moved, "Thank you for your snacks."
"Shopkeeper Qin, you have to work on King Zheng's side first. Don't worry about the snacks."
The shopkeepers suddenly changed their style and no longer insisted on Qin Lu getting them new snacks. Just now she thought they were so active just because of the snacks, but she didn't expect that they actually supported her.
In Qin Lu's incredible eyes, several shopkeepers patted her shoulders, "Shopkeeper Qin, we are all bloody, and King Zhen is worthy of our support."
"That's it, don't worry and do it boldly."
"Thank you."
With the support of several shopkeepers, Qin Lu felt deeply moved.
When Qin Lu returned to the palace, Qin Tieniu also happened to return. The two faced each other and told them about their progress.
Qin Tieniu did not expect that Qin Lu would make rapid progress, or in other words, he did not expect that his wife would help him win over so many new officials.
"Daughter-in-law, I didn't want you to come forward in this kind of thing..."
"I know you are worried that I will get caught up in it, but between you and me, I can't stay out of this kind of thing. Besides, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to me."
Qin Lu smiled at Qin Tieniu and then told him not to worry.
Because of Qin Lu's support, Qin Tieniu's actions were much smoother than before, especially for the number one scholar. When he learned that Qin Tieniu was going against the prince for the sake of the people, his whole body
Everyone's blood boiled.
"Prince, don't worry. Even if I risk my life, I will support you. I am on your side. I don't care about those ministers. Even if I lose my official position for this, it doesn't matter."
The champion's indignant words were something Qin Tieniu never expected. He stood up and saluted him.
The number one scholar was instantly frightened by Qin Tieniu's actions, and he knelt down and said, "My lord, why are you doing this? I have long admired you, and I am willing to support you. You don't need to do this."
Qin Tieniu smiled at the champion, and then said: "Okay, I am here to thank you for the people."
After their eyes met, the two of them said nothing more.
Qin Tieniu told Qin Lu everything he said to the champion.
She became excited as she said it, "Tieniu, you are really amazing. With just a few words, you got the No. 1 Scholar to support you?"
Qin Lu looked at Qin Tieniu jokingly.
