Chapter 91: The King of Jin
Yang Xu laughed, reached out and scraped the bridge of Huazu's thrush's nose, and asked, "Little Huazuzu, have you saved your monthly money every month? Well, I should have saved a lot. When you get married in the future, you can use the money to buy a generous dowry and get married with a glorious style!"
Huamei was still happy just now, but when she heard this, her face suddenly changed. She lowered her head and said quietly: "Sir, Huamei... won't marry..."
Yang Xu said seriously: "Nonsense! How can girls not get married? Who do you see in the future? The sir will make the decision for you!"
Huamei was anxious and said, "Humei is the lady's maid. Who will the lady marry in the future? Huamei will be like the past... to be a maid with the wife..."
Yang Xu said "tsk": "You two beauties, one and one, and you are a little girl, I don't know who will be cheaper in the future..."
Huan's eyebrows bit her lip and lowered her head, thinking to herself: "Miss I like Mr., but she is stupid and can't tell... Well, I hope the lady can marry Mr. in the future..."
Of course, Yang Xu wanted Yang Hongyu to marry him, but he had this idea in his mind, but Yang Hongyu seemed not to call him.
He even thought of this scene: One day he plucked up his courage and stood in front of Yang Hongyu with a bouquet of flowers, saying, "I like you, marry me." Then he was beaten into a panda's eyes by Yang Hongyu and ran away in a panda's eyes.
Yang Xu felt that it would be impossible to show it too straightforwardly if he wanted to capture the heart of a straightforward woman like Yang Hongyu. Only by turning himself into a soft finger and slowly entangling her can he have hope of getting what he wants.
As for the little girl Huamei, although she still can't live without Yang Hongyu, Yang Xu understood that her heart was actually here.
Yang Xu felt that if one day in the future, he and Yang Hongyu parted ways because of some conflicts, Hua Mei's heart would have a high probability of following him after a fierce ideological struggle.
On one side is your former master and best friend, and on the other side is the person you like and will stay with you for the rest of your life. If it were you, who would you choose?
According to the plan originally formulated by Yang Xu, the Yang Family Restaurant is growing rapidly, and the business is better than one day.
Not long after, the Qin Prince's Mansion came out behind the scenes and bought the stores on both sides of the Yang Family Restaurant at a high price. The restaurant's operating area expanded several times and the business went to a higher level.
In Yang Xu's long-term plan, the street where the Yang Family Restaurant is located will be bought by the Yang Family Restaurant and then become the largest comprehensive commercial district in the imperial capital and even the entire Zhao State.
The restaurant has become larger in size, and although various expenses have increased accordingly, the income is even more considerable.
In the second month after the restaurant opened, the Qin Wangfu, Yang Xu, Yan Feixu and Yang Jing, who represented the interests of Yangjiazhai, each made some calculations and found out that the net profit this month increased by 30% compared with last month.
For a moment, the four shareholders were all happy.
Some people are happy and some are sad.
The business of the Yang Family Restaurant is booming, and it is making money every day.
Zuixianlou, which is one street from Yang Family Restaurant, was originally almost the same business as Tianxiang Restaurant, the predecessor of Yang Family Restaurant, but since the opening of the Yang Family Restaurant, their customers have dropped sharply, and they have lost 60% to 70% at one point.
Later, Zuixianlou imitated the Yang Family Restaurant and launched a series of discounts and entertainment and leisure projects, and finally returned some customers.
Despite this, it is an indisputable fact that their business is not as good as before.
What is more heartbreaking is that the reason why the guests returned to Zuixianlou was not because the leisure and entertainment projects launched by Zuixianlou were attractive enough, but because there was really no free space in the Yang Family Restaurant, the guests had to settle for the second best and come to Zuixianlou.
This situation not only happened in Zuixianlou, but other restaurants in the imperial capital were also affected more or less.
The one who feels the most deeply are the top restaurants of the same level as the Yang Family Restaurant.
Anyway, since the opening of the Yang Family Restaurant, the business of every top restaurant in Huangdu has been getting worse and worse.
The upright competition cannot beat the Yang Family Restaurant, and several top restaurants with background backers began to have bad ideas.
Hiring rascals to come to make trouble, and the last backers of several top restaurants are disdainful of them.
They mobilized the official's personal relationship and prepared to let the official's constable and yamen runners break into the Yang family restaurant every now and then search.
No matter how good the business is, if the government is tormented repeatedly, the mood of the guests will be greatly affected. Over time, the guests will be lost and the restaurant business will be unsustainable, so they will have to go bankrupt.
The shopkeepers of several top restaurants who were brewing bad tricks watched coldly, waiting to see the jokes of the Yang family restaurant.
But what they never expected was that the first wave of constables from the Royal Capital Inspection Department entered the Yang Family Restaurant shortly after they entered the Yang Family Restaurant, they were beaten out by a group of security guards from the Yang Family Restaurant.
But those constables and yamen run away with their heads in their arms and did not dare to stop at all after being beaten out.
This scene made the shopkeepers of several top restaurants who were preparing to watch jokes stunned.
Not long after, news came from the backstage of the shopkeepers of several top restaurants, which made them stop and should not cause trouble for the Yang family restaurant in the future.
The shopkeepers of several top restaurants are all talented people. At this time, how could they not understand that the backing backer of the Yang Family Restaurant is stronger than theirs.
However, they couldn't figure out who the backer of the Yang Family Restaurant was, and they guessed that it was probably a high-powered minister in the court or a royal relative of the royal family.
After this incident, the shopkeepers of the top restaurants who wanted to cause trouble finally became honest and became obediently turtle.
This incident reached the ears of some powerful people who were good at ease in the imperial capital, so the powerful people arranged their usual banquets to the Yang Family Restaurant, hoping to use this to curry favor with the big man behind the Yang Family Restaurant.
As a result, the business of the Yang Family Restaurant became even more prosperous, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as the most prosperous one.
※※※
The King of Jin in the imperial capital Xicheng District is the residence of Zhao Yi, the second son of the current emperor Zhao Xiandi.
Zhao Yi, who was named King of Jin, was neither as fat and strong as his eldest brother Zhao Ji, nor as handsome as his third brother Zhao Bang.
He is of medium shape and thin. He always looks smiling when talking and behaves without a princely airs, making people feel as if they are in spring breeze.
Unlike his eldest brother Zhao Ji and his third brother Zhao Bang, Zhao Yi is lazy and has no ambitions. He has no intention of leading troops and is unwilling to take power. He just wants to be a free and leisurely prince.
Therefore, among Zhao Xian’s three legitimate sons, Zhao Yi is the one with the least presence.
It is also true that although the Crown Prince Zhao Ji and King Zhao Bang of Qin fought openly and secretly, they both felt a little fond of King Zhao Yi of Jin.
At this moment, Zhao Yi and his beloved princess were watering flowers and plants in the back garden of the prince's mansion, looking happy and contented.
Suddenly, an eunuch from the royal palace arrived in a hurry.
Although this back garden is the forbidden place of the royal palace, the eunuch was the chief supervisor of the King of Jin and was also the confidant of the King of Jin. If you have any questions, you can enter without reporting them.
The eunuch saw the King of Jin talking to the princess from afar, and his face looked hesitant, not knowing whether he should come over.
Princess Jin was a well-educated woman. Seeing this, she smiled at the King of Jin and said, "Mr. Li is coming to find the prince at this time. There must be something urgent. I will leave first."
King Jin smiled bitterly and sighed: "I originally wanted to be a free prince, but my subordinates were in charge of a large group of people, but I couldn't help myself... Let's go back first, and I will go to you when I handle the matter in front of me."
"Then I'm waiting for the prince."
