Chapter 124 The Last Wish of an Ancient Farmer 3

Lin Jing and Chang'an came out of the teahouse and went to the Yuelai Restaurant across the street for dinner, where they met the people who bullied him in the morning.

Master Xue whistled, "Hey, isn't this my poor classmate? Are you begging for food at Yuelai Restaurant?"

His companions burst into laughter, and someone pretended to stop him and said, "Brother Jianren, the restaurant is open to guests, anyone can come."

"Brother Shabi is right. I will reward classmate Lin with a chicken bone later." After saying this, he went into the restaurant with his friends.

The waiter greeted them as they entered with a fawning manner, and no waiter came out afterwards, leaving the three adults and one child alone at the entrance of the restaurant.

Changan put a permanent bad luck talisman on each of the three people including Xue Jianren, the kind that no one could remove except her sixth father.

Oh, and her grandfather can also decipher it, because he was the one who drew the talisman.

The waiter from the teahouse opposite happened to see this scene. He ran over with a smile and said, "Gentlemen, Yongyue Teahouse also serves dinner. If you don't mind, please come to the teahouse."

Gu Laoliu lowered his eyes and glanced at him indifferently. He had a clear gaze, a bright mind, and good fortune. Good, he was the one.

He nodded and said, "Then let's go to the teahouse for dinner."

He left first with his daughter, and the owner of Yuelai Restaurant happened to see the waiter from the teahouse opposite coming to their restaurant to take away the customers they didn't want, and the owner's eyelids twitched a few times.

Why do I feel a little panicked?

Young Master Xue, who was labeled with unlucky talismans, and his group of four fell into a ball and tumbled down the stairs with a crackling sound. Brother Shabi was at the bottom and had two ribs broken.

"what!!!"

All four of them had injuries of varying degrees. Xue Jianren had a broken hand and a broken foot, and the other two had one broken left foot and one broken right foot.

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he lost all fear. He was now afraid that if only one family's son got into trouble, the restaurant could still handle it, but if four families' sons got into trouble at the same time, the owner might push him out to take the blame in order to save the restaurant.

"What are you still standing there for? Come over here and help me."

He hurriedly asked the waiter and others to come over, and then hurriedly sent the four people to the nearest clinic.

Over at the teahouse, the waiter cheerfully invited them into the private room where they had drunk tea, and introduced the names of the dishes very skillfully.

Changan only heard, "Blah blah..." and didn't hear the whole name of the dish.

She looked at Old Sixth Father who seemed to be listening attentively, then looked at Lin Jing who was nodding seriously. So impressive, he understood everything?

After the waiter finished announcing the names of the dishes, Gu Laoliu just said, "Just serve six dishes and one soup."

Waiter: "...Okay, sir, please wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

Changan: It turns out that no one heard it clearly. It seems that the waiter was not professional enough in announcing the names of the dishes.

The teahouse actually doesn't do dinner business. The waiter was talking to the owner downstairs, "Uncle, can we use the ingredients in the kitchen to make a table of food for the gentlemen? It's our own dinner. I'll go buy some from somewhere else later."

"...Gao Sheng'er, how many times have you done this? This is the last time. I won't help you next time. Okay, I'll go help you cook."

It wasn't the first time that the shopkeeper said he wouldn't help, but every time Goldman brought people back for dinner, he looked disgusted but didn't hesitate in taking action.

All they charge is the cost of ingredients and labor, and they don't make a penny from the customers. It's cheaper than a plate of snacks.

"Oh, I get it. Thank you, uncle." He said he got it, but he would do the same next time. He just couldn't stand the people looking down on him. Who hasn't had a hard time?

Besides, how poor could someone be if he could afford to drink tea at Yongyue Teahouse?

Look at the four big pearls hanging on the headband on the little girl's head. Although he doesn't know their value, he can tell from their luster that they must be expensive.

And the jade lock on the little girl’s collar is obviously not an ordinary item. Perhaps it can be used to buy the restaurant across the street.

Just because a few young men were dressed modestly, they were mistaken for poor people.

Changan: Second brother, to tell you the truth, we really have no money.

The dishes were served very quickly. They were very ordinary home-cooked meals. They didn't taste good, of course. They were not as good as those made by freshmen and senior high school students. Gu Laoliu knew what was going on but didn't expose it.

Chang'an didn't eat much. She was used to the food prepared by her freshman and senior year students. When she ate food prepared by others, it seemed like something was missing.

After they finished their meal, Gu Laoliu called the waiter over and asked, "Do you want to be the boss?"

Goldman's brain was a little slow to keep up with the pace. Aren't we going to settle the bill? If you don't settle the bill, he won't have enough money to cover his wages today.

He blinked twice. Should he say yes or no? If he said yes, would they not give him money for the meal?

Gao Yi took out a silver ingot and placed it on the table, "Let's settle the bill first, then we can talk about business."

Six eyes, two big and one small, looked at him at the same time, making him feel embarrassed and the tips of his ears turned red.

Goldman Sachs picked up the silver ingot with a smile and said, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will be back soon."

When they were the only ones left in the private room, Gao Yi whispered to Chang'an, "It's private money."

That’s right, he didn’t donate all of his private money, he still had two hundred taels and thirty cents left.

It turns out that freshmen are the most honest and don't have a penny on them.

Da Yi: ...Miscalculated.

Goldman Sachs came back quickly with a small purse filled with small change in his hand, which was the change for Gao Yi.

This meal only cost one or two taels of silver, and Goldman Sachs charged a higher price, fearing that customers would be surprised that tea was so expensive but meals were so cheap.

The six dishes and one soup all contained common ingredients, and cost less than a hundred coins. Adding the shopkeeper's labor fee, it was less than half a tael of silver.

Gu Laoliu asked him again, "Do you want to be the boss?"

"I am a stupid boy, could you please explain it in detail, sir?" He did not dare to answer rashly, as he must first understand the situation before discussing anything else.

"I'm opening a restaurant and you'll be the boss. We'll split the profits 30% to 70%, 70% for you and 30% for me. Normally, I won't be in charge of the restaurant and you'll be in charge of everything. I'll provide the menus."

Then Gu Laoliu pointed at Gao Yi and said, "Let him be the chef. Don't worry, he learned from the imperial chef and he will definitely not ruin the restaurant's reputation."

He pointed at Lin Jing opposite and said, "Let him go and help too. You can also invite a few more people back, those who have good character, and you can teach them cooking skills."

Lin Jing: A top student who doesn’t want to be a chef is not a good student. From now on, please call me Chef Lin.

They will not stay in the kitchen all the time, but let go after teaching their apprentices.

"If you're worried, we can sign the contract and file it at the government office," Gu Laoliu nonchalantly played with Chang'an's little hands, becoming more and more addicted.

Goldman thought for a while and nodded firmly, "I believe you, sir. There is no need to sign a contract. The profit will be seven for you and three for me."

All he paid was time, while this guy paid real money. If the restaurant cannot be opened, he will only lose some time, while this young man will not lose the cost piled up with money.

But perhaps this is a turning point in his life.

Gu Laoliu did not argue with him. After they left this dimension, the restaurant would belong to Goldman Sachs anyway, so they could divide it however they wanted.

"As long as you think it's reasonable, go and see if you can buy a shop suitable for a restaurant tomorrow. Once you find one, come to Fulai Inn to find us."

Gao Yi took out ten ingots of silver from his sleeve pocket and said, "If you find something suitable, pay the deposit first, and we will settle the balance later."

They don't have that much cash now, they have to rob, bah, and earn it.

"Yes, sir, please rest assured, I will do it." Don't you think it's heavy to carry so much silver on you?
