Chapter 47
Mingxiu almost laughed out loud when she heard this, "I'm not interested in your Xianxiang Building."
Even if she wants to open a restaurant of her own, even if Xianxiang Restaurant is not what it used to be, she has no desire to own it or just sit back and enjoy it.
After spending this period of time together, Mingxiu also had a rough idea of what kind of person Shopkeeper Xu was. Was the promise he made for no reason good?
He has always only been good to himself.
"The restaurant you opened there is just in its infancy. There is no way to compete with Xianxiang Restaurant in terms of business and reputation. Although you only have a 10% share of Xianxiang Restaurant, I guarantee that you will get more than if you go out to open a restaurant alone."
Much more."
This is true. When opening a restaurant, although the profits appear to be very generous in the accounts, in reality it is not that good. Not losing money is the only hope in the initial stage.
And if Mingxiu applies her momentum in running her own restaurant to Xianxianglou, her 10% stake will indeed be able to catch up with their restaurant's total revenue.
However, if she gets these, Shopkeeper Xu will only get more.
In order to keep Mingxiu, Shopkeeper Xu could be said to have tried to persuade her with love, threats or temptations, but Mingxiu would not waver.
"... People of the Ming Dynasty don't tell secrets. Now I must set up my own business. Although I can get no less from working with you than if I set up another business, but all of this is to make wedding clothes for others, isn't it?"
Mingxiu looked at Shopkeeper Xu with a half-smile. It is true that it is not difficult for Xianxianglou to suppress a newly opened restaurant, but if they completely fall out with her, then she doesn't need to worry about Shopkeeper Xu. What's the point?
If everything is for home use, will Xianxiang Building still be able to maintain its current status?
At that time, let alone suppressing her, it was already very difficult to protect oneself.
As for the interests of the villagers that would be affected by falling out with Shopkeeper Xu, Mingxiu said that it was not a problem. Anyway, their vegetable plot could not support the consumption of the entire restaurant. If anyone in the village wanted to sell vegetables, sell them to them.
The same goes for home.
Does anyone have an opinion on this?
There are too many people who have opinions about their family. One more is not too many, and one less is not too many.
Shopkeeper Xu's face froze. He naturally knew that if his face was completely broken, Mingxiu might be sad for a while, but he would definitely not feel better!
What she said is right, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes!
Even though shopkeeper Xu felt aggrieved in his heart, he could only put on a smile towards Mingxiu at this time.
"It's just that you don't want to cooperate. I won't force it. If you don't want such a good thing, there are still many people who do."
He didn't believe that Mingxiu was the only one in the world who knew those strange dishes?
Doesn’t the head of Tubao Village know?
Even though he is not as smart as Mingxiu, he comes from the same village and is still an old man.
With a calculation in his mind, shopkeeper Xu spoke with a bit of a sinister tone.
Mingxiu smiled and didn't take it seriously.
"In this case, please leave the opportunity to someone who will cherish it. The vegetable business has changed people now. You and I are in a competitive relationship. It is better to meet less in the future."
Mingxiu had wanted to say this to Shopkeeper Xu for a long time, but she never had the chance to say it.
Now that she opened her mouth, she felt so happy.
Looking at Shopkeeper Xu's dark expression, Mingxiu felt happy that she had finally slapped Party A.
"Farewell."
She left Xianxiang Building feeling refreshed. As for the purpose of the village chief asking her to come, Mingxiu had forgotten it early and would not take it seriously even if she remembered it.
The village chief didn't treat their family as a toy in the first place. Could it be that he still had to let her pretend to be a grandson for the sake of the village chief in front of Shopkeeper Xu?
She is in a bad mood now because Xie Zhan left without saying goodbye.
After returning home, I told my parents that Xie Zhan was no longer here.
Ming's father and Ming's mother looked at each other, and their hearts skipped a beat.
"Xiu'er, don't be angry. Maybe Xie Zhan has something to do and has to leave for a while? Maybe he will come back soon."
Even though Mingxiu herself believed that she had no romantic feelings for Xie Zhan, how could Ming's mother see that?
She could only see that her girl was completely distracted after Xie Zhan left without saying goodbye. Why did the girl's family behave like this?
Ming's mother is also a woman, so she naturally understands.
Now I just hope that Xie Zhan is just like what they said, he just left for a period of time because of something unexpected, and he didn't have time to tell them. He didn't really leave.
Otherwise, Mingxiu might be sad.
"Angry? What do I have to be angry about?" Mingxiu snorted, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart, "I should be happy that he is gone! Our family also saved food."
This is not a good thing to say. Didn’t Xie Zhan come to their house just to eat and drink?
Although she later gave her money, Mingxiu only regarded it as what she deserved. After all, what she gave also benefited Xie Zhan, so it could only be regarded as an exchange of equal value.
Seeing that her face was puckered with anger, but she still insisted that she was not angry, Ming's father and Ming's mother looked at each other and both laughed.
With such duplicity, they would not believe it if he said he had no interest in Xie Zhan!
But now Mingxiu is obviously still angry, and Ming's father and mother don't tease her much.
"The shop has been renovated in the past two days, so hurry up and learn the dishes. Even if the shops are open, there are only a few dishes you can get."
It would be embarrassing if the customer ordered it and she hadn’t learned yet.
Ming's mother's face turned red and she glared at her husband angrily, "What are you talking about? Xiu'er and I have learned almost enough, and it's your turn as a grown man to worry about things in the kitchen?!"
Ming's father was embarrassed. From the corner of his eye, he saw Mingxiu suppressing a smile. He felt a little uncomfortable and even said he was not convinced, "Most of the chefs in those big restaurants are old men."
There are cooks, but most of them are raised by the family. In serious restaurants, generally men are the chefs.
This may have nothing to do with the physical strength gap between men and women. After all, working in the kitchen of a restaurant all day long is considered a heavy physical labor.
"Then you come and learn how to cook a spoon from Xiu'er!"
Seeing them noisy like children, a smile flashed in Mingxiu's eyes.
When she first arrived, although the couple looked young, they looked like octogenarians. Now they have become more energetic.
Everything is going in the right direction, but...
Mingxiu covered her chest and frowned slightly.
