Chapter 190 Promoted to Owner, Shen's Restaurant!

"Why just this little thing?"

In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Wei Wusi distributed his salary. Shen Qing rushed to Wei Wusi's office as scheduled. He looked at the six taels of silver in his hand and the porcelain bottle containing five Qi and Blood Pills, with a look of confusion on his face.

"I remember didn't the commander say that my salary would be doubled this month?"

The official who was doing the work turned around, glared at him and ignored Shen Qing.

Liu Sangui saw this scene from the side, and took the initiative to pull Shen Qing away and explained: "Shen Chasi, you don't know something. We have a loss in receiving salary in the yamen. Generally, one or two percent less is normal. "

Shen Qing was stunned when he heard this.

He knew that collecting taxes and grain in the past was a waste of money. This was the first time he heard that officials' salaries were being lost. This was simply outrageous.

"Anyway, we don't expect to live on this salary." Liu Sangui said meaningfully.

Shen Qing was speechless. It seemed that the government offices in this county were just like those in Taiping County, with a smoky atmosphere.

He originally wanted to rely on his salary to support his family, but now it seems that it is indeed difficult.

Prices here in the county town are much higher than those in Taiping County town, and they continue to rise slightly.

We really need to get started on the restaurant business, so as not to end up with nothing in the future.

"Chen Chasi, this is the token of the martial arts hall. When you go to the martial arts hall, you can enter and exit freely with this token."

At this time, the official in charge took out a gold-red bronze medal and handed it to Shen Qing.

Shen Qing knew that this was the military commander fulfilling his promise and allowing him to enter the martial arts hall to observe martial arts for three days.

"Thank you."

…

"This restaurant is in a good location, but due to poor management by the owner, it can no longer be maintained and is planned to be rented or sold."

Tian Xiaohu and Xiao Zhi brought Shen Qing to a restaurant and introduced: "It happens that there are tables, chairs, benches, etc., and the shopkeeper gave them to us. What do you think?"

Shen Qing observed carefully and found that the flow of people around was acceptable, and the restaurant was neither too big nor too small, so it was a manageable place.

The most important thing is that this restaurant is in Xinyi Fang, which belongs to his defense zone, and he can speak.

"What's the price you set?"

"We have reached an agreement. After almost half a year, the rent is only a hundred taels, which is reasonable."

Shen Qing weighed it in his mind and realized that he had just enough money left in his hand. He immediately nodded and said, "I think it's okay, let's leave it here."

"Then what's our name?"

Shen Qing said without hesitation: "Simpler, let's call it Shen Ji Restaurant!"

"Shen Ji Restaurant?!" Tian Xiaohu nodded and wrote down: "Then let's prepare for the opening on the auspicious day of the zodiac?"

"There will be an auspicious day in five days. Let's tidy up and open the business in five days. I will call some subordinates in the Yamen to come over and support me." Shen Qing was not a boss who liked to hesitate, so he made a decision immediately.

"good."

Five days is neither long nor short.

Xiao Zhi had been a chef in a restaurant, so he knew many things in the restaurant and arranged everything in an orderly manner.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, Shen Ji Restaurant is basically ready.

When the auspicious day came, the whole family in the house got up early.

The aunt and eldest sister even boiled a pot of water and asked everyone to wash themselves thoroughly.

These hunters who came out of the mountains have been running back and forth in the mountains all year round, and they have no habit of washing at all.

Over time, you will have a strange smell on your body.

Shen Qing was fine.

After conditions permit, gradually pay attention to your own hygiene conditions. Others really didn't dare to compliment him, and turned a basin of clear water into black water.

"Brother, Shen Ji Restaurant is opening today, will there be many people coming?" Shen Xiaoshan, who had changed his clothes again, asked with excitement on his face.

"It's hard to say. I don't have much foundation in the county town. It should be just the few of us who are busy. I mainly go to stand on the stage and prop up the facade of our restaurant, so as not to be offended by unsighted people. trouble."

After patrolling for more than a month, Shen Qing already knew that there are some martial arts gangs in this county. Their daily livelihood is to use violence to monopolize certain small businesses, do some shady business, or be rough. You have to buy hard, sell hard, and close hard.

He was new to this restaurant, and if he didn't have any background, it would be really difficult to deal with these dragons, ghosts and snake gods.

Shen Xiaoshan lowered his head and said, "That's right. In this world, it's all about who has the big fist and who is right. It's the same everywhere."

"Now that you know it, practice more."

Shen Qing took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and said, "Take it. Take one when you reach the end of your practice. It will increase your energy and blood and speed up your practice."

Shen Xiaohu said in confusion: "This is..."

"Qi and Blood Pill."

Shen Qing put the porcelain bottle in Shen Xiaoshan's hand and strode out of the house.

Now that he is close to perfecting his Qi-nurturing realm, he tried a Qi-Blood Pill, but it had little effect.

Rather than letting it go to waste in your own hands, it is better to give it to the right person.

Shen Xiaoshan said nothing and silently put the Qi and Blood Pill away close to his body.

Outside Shen Kee Restaurant.

Shen Qing stood at the door wearing the official uniform of Wei Wusi.

At this time, he was wearing a belt, looking tall and straight, radiant, and showing extraordinary magnanimity in his steps.

What he didn't expect was that the door of Shen Ji Restaurant was crowded at this time, and many people came.

Many small vendors, migrant workers, and idle citizens in Xinyifang all came to join in the fun.

They accidentally found out that this restaurant was opened by the official in their market, and this official was the one who killed the demon not long ago.

So the news spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and many people gathered here.

Compared with these people who came to join in the fun, only Liu Sangui and Jiang Dacong, two of Shen Qing's familiar subordinates, came.

Liu Sangui whispered in Shen Qing's ear with a strange look on his face: "Guan Yunjian and the others said that one of them said that his wife was giving birth at home, and the other said that he broke his leg and couldn't come."

Shen Qing nodded and didn't say anything. Obviously, the two of them had some opinions about him.

Let's observe and see.

If he keeps going against him and has an undisciplined subordinate around him, then there is nothing he can do but kill him.

At this time, there was a burst of gongs and drums in the distance.

It was Dong Jing who came with two lion dance teams to congratulate.

"Congratulations, Mr. Shen, for your grand opening."

Shen Qing was a little surprised when he looked at Dong Jing. He thought he was not familiar with these high-ranking officials in the Weiwu Division.

He never thought Dong Jing would be so proactive.

"Mr. Shen, your restaurant is opening today. I came here uninvited. Isn't it rude?"

Dong Jing looked at Shen Qing and laughed.

Mr. Shen?

Shen Qing found that his address had changed unconsciously. He smiled brightly and said, "How could it be? Mr. Dong is here. I am so happy. Come in and sit down. Please."

"Please."

Dong Jing walked into the restaurant generously with his entourage and subordinates.

The smile on Shen Qing's face gradually faded a little, and he looked at Dong Jing's back thoughtfully.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Shen Qing turned to the crowd and said generously: "Dear fellow countrymen, guests from all over the world, today our shop has finally opened after a lot of preparation. On this occasion, our shop has specially prepared some light wine and mussels to show our appreciation. I hope all the guests will drink heartily and join in the celebration. We welcome you to the opening ceremony!"
