Chapter 23 Planning for Taiyuan Branch

"Are you the owner of this restaurant?" He Qing's father looked at Li Jiancheng in surprise, then turned to look at his daughter. When he received her daughter's reply, he turned around still looking in disbelief.

"Exactly!" Li Jiancheng answered with clasped fists. "Uncle, come in and talk." Then he walked inside, and He Qing's father was followed by a woman, who seemed to be his wife.

"Since Jiancheng you call me uncle, then I ask you to call me my nephew." He Qing's father said.

"Even though I'm an elder, you don't call me nephew but don't ask me for help." Li Jiancheng replied with a smile.

"Hey! It's really hard for ordinary people to think that my nephew is so smart at his age." He Qing's father praised him, and suddenly he slapped his head. Just when Li Jiancheng was confused, He Qing's father said, "I'm surprised.

Such a talented nephew, I forgot to introduce myself. I am from Taiyuan, Shanxi, He Taichong, and this is Mrs. Zhao."

"Pfft..." Hearing his introduction of his name, Li Jiancheng, who was drinking tea, suddenly choked and spit out the tea. Fortunately, it was not to He Qing's father, otherwise it would have been embarrassing. At this time, Li Jiancheng was on

He couldn't catch his breath. If he hadn't practiced "Eternal Life Jue Sun Chapter", he would have gone to see the King of Hell at this time. "I choked, I'm sorry." Li Jiancheng said to He Taichong and cupped his hands, thinking of He Taichong.

The name reminded Li Jiancheng again of He Taichong in Jin Dada's "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword".

"It doesn't matter, no one is at fault, even a saint." He Taichong waved his hand.

"By the way, Uncle He. I think you seem to be from a scholarly family. Why are you doing business?" Li Jiancheng asked strangely.

"Hey!" He Taichong sighed before continuing: "The good nephew guessed it right. Originally, my He family's scholarly family has been passed down for hundreds of years, but by my grandfather's generation, the family was in decline and the situation was pressing.

I have made a living without doing business, and now I have some success, but it is not easy to restore the glory of the past." At this point, He Taichong shook his head again and sighed.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess the thoughts of the ancients. They believed that scholars, farmers, workers, merchants, and merchants were the lowest among these classes. If it were not for survival, few people would give up their status as scholars and go into business. However, there are still some

In order to maintain their false reputation, pedantic scholars would rather bring their whole family into poverty and hardship than give up their status as scholars to go into business.

"Now I have a way to bring my uncle's family back to glory, even surpassing the past. It's not difficult. I just don't know what my uncle thinks." Li Jiancheng threw out a bait. He was deeply confident about this, and He Taichong would definitely accept it. Just like "Tian Long Ba"

Like Murong Fu in "Part", the great cause of restoring the country is everything to him, and he will do anything for the restoration of the country, so he believes that He Taichong's choice is indeed true.

"Okay, since my nephew said so, and if my nephew can build such a restaurant, I think he won't cheat me." He Taichong thought for a while and then said decisively, without saying that he wanted to go back and think about it. See

He was so straightforward that Li Jiancheng was once again impressed. No wonder he could achieve success even if he abandoned literature and started doing business. He was not a pedantic person at all, but a talented person.

"In this case, my nephew hopes that my uncle can also open a restaurant in Taiyuan, called the 'Journey to the West Taiyuan Branch'. The funds will be paid by me, the business model can be based on this restaurant, and the uncle will be responsible for finding the personnel. And my uncle will be responsible for this restaurant.

Acting owner of the restaurant, can you?" Li Jiancheng made the request, and it depends on what He Taichong chooses.

"In this case, my uncle has put his wealth aside and will follow his wise nephew from now on. Wealth and honor are found in danger. If you want to gain something, you must first pay for it. My uncle still understands this." He Taichong still said simply.

The general outline had been agreed, and Li Jiancheng asked He Qing to discuss the remaining details with He Taichong. So everyone ordered some food and wine to be served, and they had a lot of fun chatting and eating. He Taichong was not an ordinary businessman, and he was full of food.

Tongxi comes from a scholarly family, and his words are well-founded.

"Hey!" Halfway through the meal, Mrs. He sighed suddenly. Li Jiancheng and He Qing looked at it strangely, but Mrs. He seemed to know the reason and was not surprised.

"Can you tell me why uncle sighed?" Li Jiancheng asked puzzledly.

"It doesn't matter if you don't mention it, it makes you angry if you mention it." He Taichong looked angry, which made him feel even more strange.

"Dad, what is it that is so troublesome? If you tell me, maybe more people can think of a solution. Furthermore, Jiancheng's wisdom may be able to help you solve it." He Qing asked, not forgetting to praise Li Jiancheng, which made him embarrassed.

Already.

"In this case, there's no harm in talking about it. This matter is a misfortune for the family." He Taichong shook his head and continued, "Qing'er, this matter is ultimately related to your younger brother." Seeing He Qing's confused look, He Taichong took the next step.

He said, "My son He Bin was originally named Bin. I hoped that he would be versatile in both arts and martial arts. However, he was not interested in studying. He only loved practicing martial arts. He refused to listen to my advice many times. It was a waste of all my efforts and made me angry.

.Now I don’t know where he went.”

"Everyone has his own ambitions. Maybe Brother He Bin will also achieve something in the future." Li Jiancheng neither objected nor agreed. This was a family matter and it was not easy for him to interfere.

"Now that the world is at peace, what's the use of practicing martial arts?" He Taichong wondered. Now under Yang Jian's governance, the world is indeed at peace. Of course, he didn't know that a war would break out soon after Yang Guang ascended the throne this year.

"No one can understand the future, but it may be useful." Seeing He Taichong's disbelief, Li Jiancheng didn't explain much, but he would understand later. "Maybe He Bin will lose interest in a year or two and give up. Now

Just let him go for now." Looking at He Taichong's sad face, he had no choice but to say this.

"Now I have no choice but to do this. I hope he can look back!" After saying that, he took a sip of wine and stopped talking about it. This meal was a feast for the guests and the host, in order to prevent his mother from discovering that he was drinking outside.

, so he decided to rest in the residence next door before going back.

When he woke up, the sun had already set, and it was probably past four o'clock. When he went out, Aunt He happened to come over. She seemed to have something to tell him, so she went back to the room.

"Jian Jiancheng, I have reached an agreement with my father." That was what he was talking about, so Li Jiancheng nodded for her to continue. "The Taiyuan branch has the same business model as this store. Maybe some things are different. We have to wait until the time comes.

Only then did I know; I also copied a copy of the recipe for the Manchu-Han Banquet to my father, and my father would find a reliable chef in Taiyuan to execute it. My father also watched the method and process of making wine, and at the same time took a utensil.

Give it to him and let him go back to make it. There should be no problem." After He Qing finished speaking, he looked at Li Jiancheng, wanting to hear if he had anything to add.

"By the way, I asked my uncle to take in some orphans in Taiyuan, and the requirements are the same. I also asked my uncle to use the certificates to find generals for training." After thinking about it, there was nothing more to say, and he signaled to He Qing that that was all, and asked He Qing to go with He Taichong.

That's all, he had to go back early, otherwise his mother would get into trouble again.

When we got home, it was not time for dinner. The whole family was chatting in the hall. It was rare that Li Yuan had a New Year's holiday and he was also resting at home. Of course, because of Li Yuan's status, low-level officials like those still had to go to work. Join their chat.
