Chapter 56: Unwilling

"Child talk."

Lu Quan smiled and rubbed Lu Sheige's little head again: "If Laifushun could have so many dishes made of long fish, they wouldn't only have long fish noodles in the store!"

Lu Quan was not surprised that Xiang Ge actually knew so many names of dishes about how to make long fish. Some of the names seemed to him to have nothing to do with long fish. However, since Xiaosi said it, it must be made by long fish.

The dishes come out.

To Lu Quan, it was most strange that the daughter of the owner of the village, Lu, knew nothing about anything.

"We can teach him if he doesn't know how to come to Fushun."

Lu Xiangge held sesame seed cakes in his arms and smiled like a fool: "Just like my mother taught Aunt Ding how to make braised meat, she can also teach the chef from Lai Fushun to make a long fish feast. When the time comes, we will also take 10% of it.

Wouldn’t profit be better?”

This kid has such a big tone!

Lu Quan stopped, looked at the child who had just reached his thigh height, and sighed after a long time: "Xiao Si, do you know what you are talking about?"

You know, Lu Quan already found it very mysterious that the Ding family was willing to pay 10% of the profit.

A butcher's shop in a town only has a few transactions every day, but there are still about a few or two dozen transactions.

They can share 10% of the braised pork sausage, even if they only get ten or eight copper coins a day, Lu Quan already feels lucky.

But Lai Fushun is different. It is the largest restaurant in Jiangjiaba, and its daily turnover is not comparable to that of a butchered pork shop in the Ding family.

I heard that the most famous long fish noodles in Fushun cost half a penny a bowl.

It is not an exaggeration to say that a restaurant like this makes money every day.

Countless ships pass through Jiangjiaba's gate every day. These ships cannot leave as soon as they arrive at the gate. They have to wait.

Some people who are lucky can wait for an hour and a half, and some people who are unlucky can wait for ten days and a half month, and some can wait for half a day and a night. This is normal.

At this time, Jiangjiaba near the gate became prosperous, and there were many restaurants in the town, and each shop did better business than the last.

Those who sail on boats are all skilled in the wind and waves. Money comes and goes quickly, and they are the most willing to spend money on food.

Even the boatmen and helmsmen on the ship have to find a tavern to have a few drinks after a cargo trip, so that they are not suffering in vain these days.

This has also resulted in numerous restaurants and restaurants along the Jiangsu-Zhejiang waterway freight line, and each business is more prosperous than the last.

Yangzhou's tribute road: along the rivers and seas, reaching Huaisi.

Xuzhou's tribute road: floats on Huaisi and reaches the river.

Laifushun started in Yangzhou and opened more than ten or twenty branches along the canal in Huaiyin, Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Some people say that wherever a boat can reach, there must be a restaurant in Lai Fushun.

This sentence is not an exaggeration at all in the Jianghuai area.

In the small Jiangjiaba, just with the shining signboard of Laifushun, its business in Jiangjiaba is absolutely unparalleled.

Lu Shege was a little confused: "Dad, what's wrong? Why can't you tell me?"

"How can you take advantage of Lai Fushun's signature brand and take a fancy to our fishermen's recipes?"

Although this recipe is not from his family, shopkeeper Li doesn’t know it!

Lu Xiangge was slightly unconvinced: "Why don't you look down on it? Isn't the fisherman's recipe a recipe?"

Lu Quan smiled bitterly: "Shopkeeper Li is kind-hearted. As long as he can collect our long-term fish, our family will be very lucky. Let him share a penny of the profit with us. This matter must not be mentioned."

If I offend Shopkeeper Li, I'm afraid he won't even want our fish anymore."

Lu Sheige walked a few steps in silence, still feeling a little unwilling.

"Dad, we can try. How can we know if it doesn't work if we don't try?"

"Little Four."

Lu Quan knelt down and gently wiped the sweat from Lu Sheige's forehead: "It's not that dad doesn't allow you to go, it's really..."

"never mind!"

Lu Quan sighed: "Then give it a try. When you come back from the eel cage tomorrow, you first teach your mother to cook. When your mother learns how to cook, I will tell the shopkeeper when I go to Fushun to deliver the long fish."

Just say it."

Maybe, it can be done!

He really couldn't bear to let this child suffer with them.

If they can really do business with Laifushun and have money, they can go ashore to rent land and build houses. Even if they rent a house, it is better than living and eating by the lake every day, which will always be harmful to their health over time.

Hearing Lu Quan agreed, Lu Xiangge immediately became happy. He took Lu Quan's big hand and shook it again and again: "Dad, let's go quickly. We bought the pig's feet and went back to weave the eel cage as soon as possible."

Lu Quan bent down and picked up Lu Sheige and sat him on his arms: "Okay, daddy is holding you. You don't know how far you can go with your short legs."

"father."

After all, Lu Xiangge had an adult's character. When Lu Quan hugged him and carried him on his arms, his face turned red.

"It's better to put me down and go on your own. The baby is so heavy, dad is exhausted."

"Won't."

Lu Quan hugged Lu Xiangge and strode forward: "Dad is very strong. When I was carrying work at the gate, I could carry hundreds of kilograms of raw silk by myself without any help."

It was because of his strength that he found work at the gate.

Being held by Lu Quan, Lu Xiangge felt very warm even though he was shy: "If the business with Lai Fushun can be negotiated, dad won't have to bear the burden, okay?"

No matter how strong you are, working hard every day will always be bad for your health in the long run.

Lu Sheige didn't want Xiao Wu to be an adult while Lu Quan and Qiu were already exhausted.

Lu Quan was stunned for a moment, then walked far away with his head down, and then responded in a low voice: "Okay, dad, listen to Xiaosi."

The two men bought pig's feet from Ding's butcher shop, and declined the two large pig bones that Mr. Ding offered as a gift, before hurried back.

On the way, Lu Sheige had a new idea.

"Dad, we made money, what do you want to do first?"

Lu Sheige took a small bite of the sesame biscuits. It was so delicious. She never thought that one day she would be so greedy for sesame biscuits. "

But now she still has to endure it and go back to wait for her mother and the others to eat together.

Otherwise, if she had eaten the sesame cakes in advance, she would know that her parents and eldest sister, and maybe the fourth one too, would all share their sesame cakes with her.

"Save it."

Lu Quan's face was filled with a happy smile: "Save more, buy land and a house, so that you and Xiao Wu can study and become literate, and then save some dowry for your eldest sister, second sister and Xiao Yu."

There are so many things that require money at home, but there is no need to spend money. As long as we have food, we can live the same life.

"Save it! It's not impossible."

Lu Sheige was not satisfied with Lu Quan's answer, "But doesn't dad have anything he wants to do? When dad gets rich, what will dad want to do?"

"What do you want me to do, dad?"

Lu Quan was slightly stunned. He really hadn't thought about this.

He asked tentatively: "I want to buy land and a house, and I also want to save some dowry for your sisters, so that you, your sister, Xiaowu, and your mother can live a good life. This is what dad wants to do most!"

Rather than saying that this is what Lu Quan wants to do most, it is better to say that this is what Qiu wants most.
