Chapter 253 Five blessings come to the door
Chai Lingwu waved his hand, and everyone in the room left.
The husband and wife sat together, and Baling said weakly: "The emperor must know."
"So what?" Chai Lingwu had already figured out the matter, "We attacked Xu Jingzong, targeting Jia Pingan. Isn't it rare for aristocratic families to attack each other cruelly?"
Ba Ling shook his head, "You don't know, although the pheasant slave is weak, Xu Jingzong is his confidant. If he scolds us, just let it go, keep it calm... this is in my heart."
Chai Lingwu was taken aback, "That's right, so and so underestimated the emperor."
His eyes became more stern, "Don't be afraid, we are not a family, how many families are huddling together, who does he want to touch?"
Ba Ling nodded, "That's the only way."
It is normal for aristocratic families to contend against the emperor in these years, and even the imperial power wants to bow to the aristocratic families.
"Come on, let's sing and dance."
Chai Lingwu excitedly called for singing and dancing, and then the drinks were brought, and the couple toasted and drank.
This is the life of the rich and powerful.
To maintain such a life, first, you need money; second, you need power. Without power, your money may be plundered at any time.
The Chai family has a big business and countless fields, but it is still not enough to spend. So, like those dignitaries in Chang'an City, the Chai family's business is not small.
The court despises businessmen, and even prohibits officials from entering the East and West Markets.
However, powerful and high-ranking officials are doing business in an endless stream. Everyone discusses which business to make money in private, but there is no contempt.
This means that only state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps.
After getting a little drunk, Baling suddenly asked: "Then if the broom star takes revenge... I have to be careful when I go out in the past few days."
Speaking of this, Chai Lingwu's eyes became more ferocious, "He doesn't dare to touch you, otherwise the emperor won't let him go. It doesn't matter if I can't go out for the last two months."
…
"Jia Canjun, this is one of the three restaurants of the Chai family."
The restaurant in front of him looked majestic, Jia Pingan looked at it, and then went back.
How to retaliate, this is a problem.
The next day he was still thinking about it.
"Xiao Jia!"
Old Xu came to Baiqi to look for him.
"I just impeached the Chai family." Xu Jingzong said proudly, "Your Majesty is furious, and has already sent someone to reprimand Chai Lingwu."
Well!
Old Xu!
Jia Pingan looked at him, "Grand Xu, His Majesty sent someone to reprimand, this is three glasses of fine wine, don't you know?"
"I know." Xu Jingzong said lightly: "Before the emperor wants to make a move, he is always amiable. The old man impeaches and His Majesty scolds. This is to make the Chai family feel at ease. When the opportunity comes in the future..."
Old Xu is really smart!
Jia Ping'an praised it in his heart.
"But the old man is a little impatient." Xu Jingzong looked like he was going to get revenge, "Do you have a good idea?"
"The business of the Chai family."
"Wonderful!"
Xu Jingzong patted the table, "What do you want me to do?"
"Just be quiet."
I hurt my self-esteem.
Xu Jingzong left, Jia Pingan thought about it.
"Captain, so-and-so went to patrol the streets."
This is a hint of getting off the post.
"Go."
Jia Ping'an left the imperial city in a cool manner, and went all the way to Gaoyang.
Gao Yang is in Maodong, singing and dancing are no longer popular, only reading for entertainment.
"Princess."
Xiao Ling came in happily.
Gao Yang raised his head, frowned and said: "Seeing you happy is like eating honey, what are you happy about?"
The bored Gao Yang wanted to find fault.
Xiao Lingfu body, "Princess, Jia Canjun is here."
What?
Gao Yang hummed, and then couldn't help but said happily: "Quickly, please come in."
She looked at the clothes on her body and thought it was okay, so she lowered the bottom line even more.
"See if you like it or not, hum!"
"The princess is inside."
"Isn't this room stuffy?"
Jia Pingan said casually, and when he came in, he saw Gao Yang lying on his side.
The room is warm, she is wearing thin clothes, and lying down, she can be said to be curvy.
"It's a bit hot!"
Jia Ping'an touched his nose, Gao Yang said, "Go get some ice water for Xiao Jia."
Jia Pingan coughed dryly, "There is no need to add ice."
Gao Yang sat up straight, and said with a smile: "Why did Xiao Jia think of coming here today?"
"I have something to do."
Sure enough, there is nothing to go to the Three Treasures Hall!
Scumbag!
Gao Yang sighed, "Speak."
Jia Ping'an asked, "I heard that you and Baling are not on good terms?"
Gao Yang snorted coldly, "Ba Ling always mocks me in a strange way. If it wasn't for the sake of being a sister, I would have given her a hard whip with a small leather whip. Also, she called Wang Yuerong to confuse me before. Meddling with their affairs, the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes..."
Gao Yang's IQ seems to have improved a bit, congratulations!
"That's using you." Jia Ping'an's eyes became more angry, "This matter can't just let it go, don't worry, I will clean up the Chai family when I turn back."
Gao Yang couldn't help being moved, "Xiao Jia..."
She thought that Jia Ping'an would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but she didn't expect that he came to vent his anger on her.
This boy is really a tough guy!
IQ continues to decline...
"But the Chai family has many friends, so it's not easy to do it." Gao Yang said worriedly: "How about...take it easy."
Jia Ping'an smiled and said, "Since I said that I want to vent my anger on you, I will not discount it. Don't worry, I have thought of a way to do this."
"What method?" Gao Yang ordered: "Go and get the wine."
Why does this **** always like to drink with me!
Jia Ping'an had a headache, "Someone asked, the business of the Chai family is the best among those three restaurants. If the business of those three restaurants plummets, how do you feel?"
Gao Yang said happily: "The Chai family has a big business, and they spend money like water. The three restaurants used to show off to me in Baling, saying that they make a lot of money every year. If they don't make money, I will go to shame Baling next time." .”
Jia Pingan looked at her, and suddenly felt that this **** was really not cruel enough.
If those vicious people, such as Baling, set up a trick when they went to Zhongnan Mountain last time, if Jia Ping'an was fooled that night, his reputation would be wiped out in an instant.
Gao Yang is much worse in comparison, he thinks he is smart, but...
Jia Ping'an said seriously: "Don't be smarter than others in the future, stick to your own things, and don't care about the rest."
Are you saying I'm stupid?
Gao Yang was furious.
But seeing Jia Ping'an's sincere expression, she was suddenly happy again, and even blushed.
"I see."
This is Xiao Jia caring about me, even if the words are not nice, I feel comfortable!
Jia Ping'an smiled, "A certain person is going to spread out the cooking."
"What?"
Gao Yang was dumbfounded when he heard it, "If we go out, we will make less money."
This girl is really short-sighted.
Jia Pingan frowned and said, "There are only two stir-fried dishes in Chang'an now, and there are only so many stir-fried dishes in Tiantianju, and they are not authentic, so the business can only be said to be ordinary. The best is our Chang'an canteen, but how many people line up every day is not enough. miss a meal?"
Gao Yang's eyes flashed with an aura called "It's all mine, it's all mine", "But it's all ours."
Jia Ping'an covered his forehead, "Sooner or later, people will slowly get out this fried dish. A certain position for Chang'an canteen is high-end and high-end. Do you know what that means?"
Gao Yang shook his head, looking like a girl in a daze.
"Ordinary people pay attention to cost performance when eating, that is, spend the least money and eat the best food. This type of people will not go to Chang'an Canteen. Chang'an Canteen mainly caters for the rich, powerful, and officials...but anyone with some status, If you don’t go to the Chang’an canteen for dinner, you’ll feel like you’re missing something...yes, it’s just that you lose face, and the food isn’t delicious enough.”
Jia Pingan was talking enthusiastically, while Gao Yang put his hands on his cheeks and looked at him quietly.
"A certain person is going to put out some low-end stir-fried dishes. There are three restaurants in the Chai family, so a certain person will give them to the restaurants near the three restaurants to form a siege."
Gao Yang nodded, "That's great."
"What's so good?" Jia Pingan felt baffled, and then said energetically: "First, it is certain to buy shares with stir-fried vegetables. Second, the price must be reduced, so that those who come to eat nearby feel that eating stir-fried vegetables is the least expensive." money, and eat the best food. Think about it, after this, will the Chai’s restaurant still have business?”
"You are..." Gao Yang murmured, "The Chai family is going to be in trouble."
As soon as Jia Ping left, Xiao Ling came in, and seeing Gao Yang sitting there in a daze, she asked, "Is the princess unhappy?"
"Happy!" Gao Yang raised his head, "Xiao Jia...is really amazing."
…
Back home, Jia Pingan handed over the negotiation to Du He.
But not long after Du He left, he came back disheveled.
"Those people don't believe it."
Isn't this looking for trouble?
Jia Pingan sighed, and then went to ask for a day off.
In Pingkangfang Yanqing Building, the boss Hu Yanqing stood outside, and Gu Chen, the shopkeeper behind him, said: "The best business in Pingkangfang is Chang'an Canteen, and there are no queues every day. Naturally, it is second, but it is said that cooking is the best. From the hands of Jia Pingan..."
"It's his handwriting!" Hu Yanqing stroked his mustache and said, "The shopkeeper of Tianranju is from Huazhou, and Jia Ping'an is from Huazhou. Behind the Chang'an cafeteria is Princess Gaoyang. On the day when the door opened, Jia Ping An came with Tai Shiling, tell me, is there such a coincidence?"
"Then Du He who came earlier, sir, why didn't you agree?"
"Du He has no control over such a big event."
Hu Yanqing said lightly: "Use the recipe of stir-frying vegetables to invest in the shares. If Jia Ping'an doesn't come, how can someone dare to agree? Besides, he has to come for the contract."
"Look, sir." Gu Chen pointed to the front.
Hu Yanqing looked up, her body shook, a smile quickly formed on her face, and she greeted her.
"I met Jia Canjun."
Jia Pingan said with a smile: "This is..."
"The owner of Yanqinglou, Hu Yanqing." Du He introduced in a low voice.
"Nice to meet you."
The two parties then went in, and Hu Yanqing called for people to prepare food and drinks.
Jia Pingan waved his hand, "I don't like the wine, so the food is fine."
In an instant, Hu Yanqing and Gu Chen seemed to feel a strong wind blowing towards them.
I don’t drink alcohol, but the food... sorry, it’s not a boast, I don’t like your food.
The person who makes the stir-fry is so domineering!
Hu Yanqing's cheeks trembled, "Jia Canjun is a rare visitor, what can I teach you?"
"Crape is boring." Jia Pingan asked straight to the point: "Do you want to learn how to cook?"
Hu Yanqing said with a dry smile: "It's natural to think about it, but..."
"That's fine." Jia Pingan took out a contract casually.
"Go to the Wannian County Ticket if there is no problem."
Jia Pingan got up, "The Chang'an cafeteria has agreed that a kitchen will be set aside to teach the cooks you are waiting for for ten days. If you can't learn it, don't blame the master for not being dedicated."
Stir-frying these days requires heat, and these cooks already have profound skills, and learning is even more effective.
Hu Yanqing took a look at the contract and found that it was 30-70%.
Jia Pingan’s recipe for stir-frying requires 30% of the shares.
"Is 30% too much?" Businessmen are greedy, and Hu Yanqing is no exception.
"Du He, take back the contract and go to the next house."
Jia Ping'an didn't have time to chat with these people, so he left if it didn't feel right.
If it wasn't because he didn't have the energy to do business, he only needed to open a few restaurants, and the money would flow in.
At this moment, only 30% is required, which is sending money to Hu Yanqing.
No, it's a win-win.
"Slow! Thirty percent is still appropriate." Hu Yanqing smiled immediately. Du He felt that even officials could not compare to the casualness of changing his mouth as if he was drinking water when he saw the wind.
"If the secret is leaked, you know the consequences yourself." Jia Ping'an is in Baiqi, and there are many such local snakes, and there are many ways to deal with businessmen.
"The cook will sign the contract immediately, and he will never leave for the rest of his life. If he dares to leak the secret, he will kill his whole family!"
For the sake of profit, businessmen can take the risk of beheading, so Jia Ping'an doesn't worry about this.
"So, go to the next one."
"Next?"
Hu Yanqing was dumbfounded, "Isn't it exclusive?"
Du He had been ridiculed by him before, but now he retorted, "If it's exclusive, why should Mr. Wang come to your house."
Hu Yanqing's complexion changed, "Isn't it many families?"
"There is one condition for this matter." Du He said: "After the fried vegetables are sold, the price should be lower, and it will be limited to March."
"What? Don't earn money if you have money?" Hu Yanqing thought this was really crazy.
Du He whispered: "Just do it."
Afterwards, Jia Ping'an went to several restaurants, all of which were near the three restaurants in Chai's house without exception.
…
The first day is very lively, and there is a seven-day long holiday.
Early in the morning, my cousin got bamboo poles and hung up the flags.
"A long life!"
The cousin stood on the top of the wall and shouted loudly, then looked down at the next door.
His sweetheart, Aunt Wang, was cooking New Year's meals in the yard, going in and out for a while.
This day is such a prosperous day with expectations.
"Killed the sheep!"
A fat sheep was overturned, Cao Er was taking care of it, and Xu Xiaoyu squatted on the side to watch the fun.
"Xu Xiaoyu."
Jia Ping'an came out of the study, holding two couplets, "Stick to the door."
"What is this?" Xu Xiaoyu was very curious.
Du He came over, saw and praised: "Three suns rise from the ground, and five blessings come from the sky. Interesting."
This is probably the first Spring Festival couplet ever recorded, and the villagers were amazed after it was hung up.
Followed by a family feast.
Cao Er tried his best, which can be called extremely rich.
Halfway through the meal, Jia Ping'an was a little drunk, and turned around to see Yang Deli.
He got up and went over, only to hear Yang Deli muttering.
"Auntie, the days are getting better and better. It can be seen that what those people said about the broom star is not true. If you are missing something in the sky later, just rely on your dreams."
Jia Pingan smiled.
"gentlemen."
Zhao Yan came, brought gifts, and said some auspicious words.
"The gifts at home should also be given."
Du He set off with a few servants who were well fed.
When they came back later, except for Du He who was still a little sober, the others were all drunk.
"Mr. Liang, General Liang's house...is full of wine." Du He pouted, "I'm not afraid, I drank a few."
This was the case on the first day, but in the middle of the court, the morning ceremony was over long ago, and Jia Pingan was not eligible to participate. Tang Xu and Shao Peng said that he had worked hard for a year, and they did not arrange him to be on duty, and directly started the small long vacation.
…
Gao Yang ate and drank alone at home, and it was rare to see sunshine today. She found it interesting, which was surprising.
The so-called strangeness means gossip and interesting stories.
The maid can be regarded as a technical post in the princess mansion, with a slick mouth, Gao Yang smiled from time to time.
"Princess, Jia Canjun is the best at telling stories."
"Is he good?" Gao Yang was taken aback.
"There are rumors in the palace that as soon as Jia Canjun opened his mouth, he told a story about the creation of the world by Pangu, and all the evil spirits on Concubine Xiao Shu in the palace escaped."
Gao Yang snorted coldly, "He has a story but he doesn't tell me, but he tells that **** in the palace, prepare the horse!"
Xiao Ling who was waiting on the side was startled, "Princess, where are you going?"
"Go out for a walk."
Gao Yang transferred to Daodefang as soon as he turned around.
The Jia family's family banquet is over, and tea is being made at the moment.
"Lang Jun, the princess is here."
Jia Pingan was taken aback, "Why is she here?"
He went out to meet him, and saw Gao Yang, who was dressed in red cedar, striding in.
"Someone said you could tell a story?"
Gao Yang's eyebrows and eyes are full of domineering momentum, but it is ineffective against Jia Ping'an.
"what story?"
Jia Pingan took her to the main hall.
But the main hall often faces the wind, and sitting in it is cold and shivering all over.
"Go to the study." Gao Yang waved his small hand and went in first.
This **** is out of touch.
In the study, Jia Pingan made tea.
"Did you not add those seasonings?" Gao Yang sniffed it, and felt that the smell was a little weird.
"Just drink it like this." Jia Pingan didn't know how to stir-fry tea, so he used the current tea to cook. The taste was indeed a bit strange, but he could still drink some of the fragrance of tea.
"You tell a story." Gao Yang looked energetic.
"It is said that Pangu opened the world, and the eyes turned into..."
Jia Pingan felt that he was really pitiful, and talked about it from the palace to home.
Later, he said that his mouth was so dry that drinking tea didn't work.
"Forget it, I've heard enough today, come back tomorrow."
Gao Yang rode away.
After the first day, according to the custom, Yang Deli invited his neighbors to be guests.
The neighbors of the old Jia’s family were full of praise for the food, but Jia Ping’an was troubled.
"Yesterday morning, Xie Qing also went to the ceremony. Someone asked him if he was beaten by you, but he didn't speak."
Bao Dong's face was stern, "Then someone said that His Majesty was unfair, which immediately sparked a dispute."
"Where is Xie Qing?"
"Just left the city at this moment." Bao Dong's eyes flickered, "Join the army, Shao Zhongguan said..."
"Needless to say."
Jia Pingan waved his hand, "Just wait for the news."
Xie Qing deliberately disgusts people, which can be called insanity, and he doesn't even care about Li Tai's safety.
The news will come later.
"Xie Qing's legs were broken, and he is crying in the carriage at the moment! He said that he is not allowed to seek medical treatment, so he just went back all the way."
Bao Dong felt a chill running down his spine, "Not one of us."
Of course it is impossible for Li Zhi to only have Baiqi and Qianniuwei to protect him. Jia Pingan couldn't help but be fascinated, thinking about what such a master would be like.
Is there a Sunflower Collection?
And Li Zhi was very confused when he got the news.
"Could it be uncle?"
Changsun Wuji was drinking in the mansion, and after hearing the report from his subordinates, he said calmly: "Li Tai is the old man's nephew after all, I will warn him with a long history... If he knows something, then let's just stop and live. If not Ken..."
