Chapter 20 What business?
Yangcheng is the closest city to Qingyuan Town. It only takes half a day by horse carriage. It is the first stop of Cen Xiyan's trip.
Since there were only three people going out, Cang Qing, the only man, acted as the coachman.
After noon, the carriage of three people finally entered the city and went straight to Liuxiangzhai in the east of the city.
This Liuxiangzhai is the largest dessert chain in Eastern Xun Kingdom, which was compared to the desserts on the boat by the two noble men on the lake a few days ago.
Yes, this Liuxiangzhai is one of the properties of Yuanyin Sect.
As for the two people who felt that the desserts on the boat were better than Liuxiangzhai's, that was because Yingxue's craftsmanship was better than Liuxiangzhai's dessert chef, because many of the samples were made by Cen Xiyan's suggestions and Yingxuelai's brainstorming.
.
Although Liuxiangzhai mainly sells desserts, it also serves wine and food, and the taste is good. Although it is past noon, there are still many customers.
The three of them entered the lobby and were immediately greeted by a waiter with a smile on his face and a warm greeting, "How many guests are there? Are they in the front hall or the private room?"
"You three, Yajian." Cen Xiyan replied with a smile.
The waiter didn't know them, so he was probably new here, but his professional skills were pretty good, and it seemed like Tao Niang had trained him carefully.
"Okay, three guests, please come upstairs!"
The three of them had just walked a few steps with the waiter when a middle-aged man who looked like a manager came over from the opposite side. When they saw Cen Xiyan and others, they were stunned for a moment, then they were overjoyed and hurried over to greet him, "Xi Yan
Young Master, are you here?"
"Well, Shopkeeper Liu, long time no see. How are you doing?"
"Thanks to the young master, everything is fine." The shopkeeper Liu Ming replied, and then said to the waiter who was a little confused at the side: "You go and do your work. I will greet these distinguished guests."
"Yes, Shopkeeper Liu." The waiter responded and turned to greet other customers.
Shopkeeper Liu took Cen Xiyan and three other people to a specific private room on the second floor. He brought the menu and asked the three to order wine and food. He also personally brought good tea and poured water.
"Shopkeeper Liu, do you think I'm not serving my young master well enough? Are you trying to steal my work?" Yingxue teased with a smile.
Liu Ming smiled and said, "Miss Yingxue is joking. I'm just trying my best because the young master comes here once in a while."
"Okay, shopkeeper Liu, please take a seat." Cen Xiyan pointed to the seat opposite and asked, "Where is Tao Niang? She is not in the store?"
Tao Niang is the big shopkeeper in charge of the entire Liuxiangzhai chain. Because the store in Yangcheng is closest to Cenxi Rock, she made it the main store. She usually works here. If Tao Niang is in the store, she should know her by now.
The news came and came.
Liu Ming shook his head, frowned, thought for a moment, and replied: "Sir, Tao Niang seems to be being targeted!"
Hearing this, Cen Xiyan raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What's going on?"
"A few days ago, several guests came and asked to see Tao Niang by name. They said they had business to do with the big shopkeeper. After Tao Niang met them, it seemed that they had not reached an agreement, but those people came to pester her every day. Tao Niang was annoyed.
Yes, I will hide out today."
