Chapter 32 Make friends with Tian Hong
At this time, a table was just given up in the store, and the group sat down in front of the long table and looked around curiously.
The young man who was delivering food had just walked out of the kitchen and suddenly saw these Jinyiwei wearing big red Jinyi clothes.
The guy was so scared that his hands shook and almost knocked the hot braised pork in his hand to the ground.
But the Lord Jinyiwei smiled at the young man and seemed very warm: "My man, come six bowls of braised rice and ten pieces of fire."
The young man nodded with courage, his face turned pale involuntarily, then quickly walked back to the kitchen and whispered to Chen Lie.
Chen Lie was busy in the kitchen. He was slightly surprised when he heard this, so he hurried out of the kitchen and greeted Tian Baihu and others who were joking in the front hall.
"Oh, Lord Tian...you are really rare guests."
The two have already become familiar with each other.
After a few greetings, Tian Hong and others looked at Chen Lie, looking at the apron around his waist and the big spoon in his hand, and their expressions were a little strange.
In the noise, Tian Hong showed a warm smile again and joked: "Shopkeeper Chen is really prosperous here. Tian is a villain today and has disrupted your business. Please don't be surprised by Manager Chen."
Chen Lie wiped his hands on the apron, revealing a bright sunny smile, and said with a smile: "I dare not take it, what do you say... Wait a moment, and the braised and boiled fire will come soon."
Tian Hong smiled again and said, "No, no, no."
Chen Lie, Tian Hong's chat and laughter made the terrified diners around him stunned, and they gathered together and whispered in a low voice.
"The shopkeeper of this Bianyifang is quite famous."
"Shh, whisper!"
It would be bad if the Jinyiwei heard it.
But this picture...
This makes Bianyifang, which is already very popular, adds a bit of mystery.
Soon, Chen Lie exchanged a few greetings and quickly returned to the kitchen. He stirred a spoon and filled the pot with pork belly, pig intestine, and various side dishes...
After boiling, I picked up six large sea bowls and filled them with them.
Chen Liecai personally took the young man to add six bowls of braised rice and a golden basket of fire burning in front of Tian Hong and others.
Chen Lie wiped his hands again and said with a smile: "Mr. Tian, please use it slowly."
Tian Hong and others picked up the chopsticks with interest, picked out a piece of pork belly and tasted it, and then asked for another bite of it that was burnt on the outside and tender on the inside, and then praised it endlessly.
"Yeah... OK!"
"good!"
A few praises and a few compliments.
Chen Lie smiled brightly again.
Another half an hour later.
Afternoon.
The diners who were full or not full dispersed one after another, and the crowded shop became quiet, but Tian Hong and other Jinyiwei were not in a hurry to leave.
Instead, I sat in the shop and chatted, discussing the deliciousness of the braised and boiled fire. The food was more fragrant than boiled white meat, lighter than the double-cooked meat, and less fishy than the mutton soup.
Everyone couldn't help but praise it. This braised and hot-cooked firewood is indeed very delicious and cheap. No wonder it attracts so many diners.
At this time, Chen Lie hurriedly came from the kitchen, bowed to Tian Hong, and greeted him: "Lord Tian is here, Chen is wrong to welcome him, forgive me, forgive me."
Tian Hong naturally would not be surprised and said politely: "Shopkeeper Liu doesn't have to do this. I heard that Shopkeeper Liu's ancestors were also from the Beizhen Fushi?"
Chen Lie hurriedly said: "Yes."
So Tian Hong's smile became even warmer and he laughed loudly, "That's not an outsider."
Chen Lie's heart moved when he heard this and hurriedly said, "Sir, I'm in love."
With just a greeting and politeness, the relationship between the two became closer in vain and became closer instinctively.
For a moment, everyone in the shop was chatting and laughing.
After chatting for a while, Tian Hong stood up, smiled at Chen Lie, made a few polite words, and then left the shop with a group of Jinyiwei.
Chen Lie personally delivered it to the alley and said a few more politely: "Sir, come often!"
Seeing the Jinyiwei walking away, Chen Lie put away the smile on his face, and he felt thoughtful between his eyebrows, weighing the interests in his heart.
Chen Lie walked back to the shop while pondering.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Yun'er, who was shaking the abacus at the counter, pouting her mouth and muttering in a low voice: "Young Master, this group of people are lackeys in the court. It's too late for serious people to hide. Young Master... just want to make friends with them."
Chen Lie smiled and said softly: "Don't go out and say this."
As he said that, Chen Lie narrowed his eyes and pondered in his heart.
Is the Jinyiwei a lackey in the imperial court?
Of course not.
This is just a misunderstanding of the peddlers and pawns, and ordinary people. They are serious royal minions and the emperor's personal army, representing the supreme imperial power!
Is the Jinyiwei famous? It is naturally very bad, but the various injustices in the world that harm the country and the people may not be the Jinyiwei.
"Some gentle and scum..."
Chen Lie muttered to himself at this moment, his eyes flashed with a wise spirit. He learned from his mistakes and became more wise. In order to prevent his small shop from being targeted, he robbed him...
He has made a promise to make Tian Hong this friend!
So Chen Lie ordered Yun'er: "Next time, there will be people from the garrison. Remember, don't neglect it."
Yun'er quickly responded obediently: "Oh!"
Anyway, she only listens to the young master, and the young master will never be wrong.
Chen Lie smiled slightly, looked at the well-behaved and sensible pretty maid, looked at the somewhat messy shop, and stretched comfortably.
In a blink of an eye, it was another three days later.
The braised and hot-boiled ones are still very popular. As Chen Lie expected, there will be several Jinyi lieutenants who will have a meal at noon every day, led by a general banner officer or a small banner officer.
Tian Hong will come every now and then. He doesn't bring many people to bring, nor does he show off. He is very kind to Chen Lie, and even feels a little humble.
Moreover, these Jinyiwei did not rush to leave after dinner every day, but instead took the initiative to help maintain order at the entrance of the alley.
Not to mention it.
Since the Jinyiwei came forward, the originally crowded alley suddenly became orderly. The diners lined up obediently, and even the rascals who were thieving in the chaos were scared away.
At this moment, Chen Lie understood that these Jinyiwei were naturally sent by Tian Hong. On the one hand, they were to maintain order and fear chaos, but on the other hand, they were to protect them.
Even if Tian Hong is a friend, he has made a deal.
Another night falls.
Shen Family.
The night is slightly cool and quiet as water.
Chen Lie sat in the yard, feeling the slight coolness, looked up at the stars in the sky, and there was a hint of trance in his eyes.
In the busy daily life, it was already the end of February without realizing it. Although the temperature difference between morning and evening is still very large, the charcoal basin has been removed.
March is not far from spring.
As the business of the store got on track, I experienced the trepidation when it first opened, and then the popularity and chaos later, and now it is orderly.
The clarity in the store gradually became clear. Yun'er, who had been to a private school and knew how to settle accounts, became half a accountant, and Chen Lie and Aunt Li took turns to take charge.
With a young man, a few old neighbors, seven or eight people supported the shop. Now it’s time to pay the salary at the end of the month, it’s time to settle the accounts.
In the main hall.
Yun'er was knocking the abacus with her simple white hands. From a deep angle, the little maid knocked the abacus with a lot of actions, very serious...
And his small body has grown taller and more plump.
Before she knew it, even her dressing style became more mature. She even learned to apply rouge and powder. The soft black hair as soft as a cloud was still braided into braids.
