Since the end of the New Year, Xu Cinian has been busy again. Early spring is a good time to plant Houttuynia cordata. All had to be strictly controlled. Cinian and the staff in the farm went into battle together.

 

Naturally, Xu Cinian, the general manager, could not be idle.

 

While busy expanding the scale of the farm, he kept making preparations for the opening of the new restaurant.

 

Qu Cheng intends to accompany him to run between the two places, but Hao Ting has recently had a major incident.

 

It is said that no one dares to provoke the Qinglong Gang in the land of S City, and Qucheng has a good relationship with several top leaders in the political circle.

 

People in bars and KTVs frequently came to make trouble and smashed the place. A group of people started to splash after drinking. The police were alerted several times but did not restrain.

 

He didn’t pay attention to this kind of little gangster at first, and it would be fine if someone cleaned it up, but these people are disgusting like flies, and there is a second group after cleaning up.

 

Going back and forth, going back and forth, Qu Cheng also understood that someone deliberately couldn’t afford to live with him. After letting Ah Si catch a gangster and beat him to death, only when he asked, did he know that it was the Kun Gang who was playing tricks behind his back.

 

Qu Cheng didn’t dare to be careless about this gang that had sprung up at the border, not because he was afraid, but because he didn’t want Scarface to deal with him, and then turned around and stared at Xu Cinian.

 

So he handed over all these matters to the police on the surface, but behind his back he sent someone to turn S City upside down, and he would annihilate the remnants of the Kun Gang in one fell swoop.

 

It took more than half a month for such a tossing. On the day before Xu Cinian’s new restaurant opened, Qu Cheng still didn’t show his face, and even no call. Xu Cinian couldn’t sit still and moved his fingers, sent a text message over,

 

[Where does the boss of the city make a fortune, do you have time to meet?]

“Ding—Ding—” The phone in the pocket vibrated.

Qu Cheng frowned slightly, grabbed the man who was kneeling on the ground, and kicked his knee. The man was pinned to the ground and said in pain, “Brother Cheng…I was also forced! Entering Hao Ting as a spy, if not Brother Scar will kill me!”

He looked up just as Qu Cheng took out his mobile phone, saw a piece of glass shards in front of him, gritted his teeth to reach it, and almost reached it…

Seeing Xu Cinian’s text message, Qu Cheng laughed lowly, the expression on his face softened a bit, and he tapped the keyboard to dial Xu Cinian’s number.

“Hello?”

Cinian voice rang on the other end of the phone, Qu Cheng’s voice was the same as usual, even with a smile, “Why does Boss Xu have time to contact me, miss me?”

Xu Cinian raised his mouth, just as he was about to speak, the man lying on the ground suddenly struggled to get up, and the glass slag in his hand waved towards Qu Cheng’s neck.

Qu Cheng grabbed the phone and tilted his head to avoid it, grabbed the man’s mouth with his right hand, and kicked him against the wall with one foot.

“!!!” The man’s eyes widened in pain, and his screams were gagged in his mouth.

“Why is it so noisy there?” Xu Cinian asked suspiciously.

The frequency of Qu Cheng’s breathing did not change, and his voice was full of joy, “It’s alright, I happily went out for a run after receiving your call.”

Xu Cinian couldn’t help laughing at him, “Okay, don’t be sloppy, I’m in the car. I’ll be in S City in a while, If you have time in the evening, I’ll invite you to dinner.”

“Well, see you soon.”

Qu Cheng replied with a smile, stepping on the back of the spy’s hand the moment the phone was buckled, The glass slag instantly melted into flesh and blood, and the man spasmed in pain but couldn’t make a sound.

Qu Cheng got up, Ah Si handed him a box, he reached out and threw it on the man’s face, the box smashed open and a prosthetic limb fell out of it.

 

“Take this ‘gift’ back to Scarface, he should be able to use it after being lame for so long, remember to tell him to be a good person in the future, don’t come to my place to find trouble, otherwise it won’t be a prosthetic leg next time It’s simple.”

After he finished speaking, he patted off the soil from his body and walked out of the alley without looking back, leaving behind the spy with a scarred face, and murmured painfully on the ground.

*****

 

I haven’t seen peacock for more than half a month, Qu Cheng thought strangely, counting the time on the road, he rushed to the appointed place before he even had time to change his clothes.

Unexpectedly, Xu Cinian arrived earlier than him and got into Qucheng’s Bentley car with two bags of bean paste in his hand.

When the weather was getting warmer, he wore a gray open-body sweater with two blue shirt collars turned inside out. With the newly grown plate on the top of his head, he looked particularly energetic. He raised his mouth and smiled, suddenly young several years old.

Qu Cheng’s eyes were hot, and before he even said a word, he stole a piece of incense and was slapped away by Xu Cinian.

“You don’t even miss me…” Qu Cheng flattened his mouth with a look of grievance, completely forgetting that he was still in a suit and leather shoes, and was driving a million-dollar luxury car.

Xu Cinian coughed a few times, and shook it in front of him with the bean paste bag in his hand, “Didn’t I bring you supper?”

He never liked to be too straightforward. What do I miss you? He got goosebumps just thinking about the nasty words like kissing him, but he really missed this man, so he didn’t say it clearly, so he just took food as a bribe.

“It’s almost as if you gave yourself to me for a late night snack.” Qu Cheng sighed, opened the plastic bag, and immediately didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “Hey… even if you want to fool me, take something decent, what’s this called?”

He held up a small rabbit bean bag with red rouge on it, two chocolate eyes, and two fat white ears pricked up.

Xu Cinian couldn’t help laughing, and said indifferently, “How can I fool you? I came back from Qingyuan with two buns for you, isn’t it enough to explain the problem? Wowo wants to eat it all up. I didn’t let him, I grabbed it from his mouth on purpose, you can see that there are tooth marks on it, how come you don’t know how to be grateful, and how can you give back to the big brother.”

Qu Cheng can’t laugh or cry, yes, he can grab it from his mouth. Food is really not easy, should he be grateful to Dad?

 

“Okay, okay, the buns represent your heart, can I eat them?” He bit off a rabbit’s ear, and pretended to sigh, “Delicious”

 

The fat bun looked really delicious, Xu Cinian stared at him for a long time, the corners of his mouth could not help turning up, and he didn’t say much, slammed Qu Cheng into the passenger seat, put on his seat belt, stepped on throttle.

Bentley drove up the elevated road all the way, and Qu Cheng raised his head and asked, “Didn’t you say go to dinner, where is this going?”

Xu Cinian smiled at him, with light in his eyes, “You will know when we’re arrive.

“The gate stopped.

This street is the most prosperous commercial street in S City. All high-end shopping malls, hotels and entertainment clubs are basically concentrated in this area. From a distance, you can see a lot of dazzling lights and dazzling neon lights.

Qu Cheng didn’t know why, so he looked around, “Why did you come here? Do you want to go to Hao Ting? Then why don’t you take me, go in and brush your face, tell them our relationship, and see who dares to stop you.

 

Xu Cinian walked straight forward, smiled and turned around and hooked his fingers, “just follow, I’ll take you to a good place.”

 

The two walked side by side in the bustling commercial street, surrounded by very crowded people. Crowded and crowded, LED screens all over the street are displaying the most popular luxury brands, and there are brightly lit jewelry stores on the street. The diamonds inside are blinded by the lights.

The two big men walked together, and their bodies would inevitably collide. Qu Cheng walked forward with no expression on his face, but his fingers were sketching back and forth in Xu Cinian’s palm, poking his itch several times, which attracted Xu Cinian. Looking back at him, when the eyes of the two met, they couldn’t help but want to laugh, and looked back at the advertisement on the side of the road.

 

Walked all the way so greasy and crooked, Xu Cinian stopped in front of a shop on the corner of the street after turning a corner.

 

This whole street has a strong commercial atmosphere, and everything looks dazzlingly bright as if it was carefully packaged, but only this small shop in front of them is out of tune with the surrounding.

In front of the quaint little door is a carved old house door, with red paint that is about to fall off, two stone lions on both sides, and four big red lanterns above their heads, on which hangs a plaque, stained with gold. That contain big characters “Zhao’s private kitchen” with a vigorous pen.

Qu Cheng was stunned for a long time, and his eyes lit up when he reacted, “This is… your restaurant?”

He had noticed that the store was being renovated before, but he didn’t pay attention to it because it was not listed. Who would have thought that this peacock opened a restaurant in his eyelids, and he didn’t know it until now!

Xu Cinian nodded with a smile, took out a key from his pocket to open the house door, and beckoned to him, “Come in, today I specially invited the boss of the city to come here for the first meal.”

Qu Cheng paused for a moment, laughed uncontrollably, stepped over the vermilion threshold, and the door of the house creaked shut, as if he had been brought into another world at once.

The lights are bright, and the whole restaurant is like a small teahouse in an old alley. The diners sit down to eat and drink wine, eat a plate of melon seeds, listen to a play, and vividly reflect the scene of that year.

There are more than a dozen wooden tables in the small room, the chairs are matching ancient benches, red lanterns are hung around, and the walls are painted with New Year pictures and pattern of various colors. The old singer came over with a big copper pot with a long mouth in his hand, and poured a cup of tea for Qu Cheng with a blue and white tea bowl.

“Mr. Guest, what would you like to eat?” Xu Cinian asked him with a smile, his long and narrow eyes were bent, and his pupils shone in the warm yellow light.

Qu Cheng burst into laughter, opened his mouth to say something, but after meeting Xu Cinian’s eyes, he coughed again seriously, “Then it depends on what’s in your store? First, two plates of pork head meat, then Let your boss come out and accompany me to drink a glass of flower wine and sing a little song for me.”

 

“Fuck you.” Xu Cinian spat at him with a smile, leaning on the table and looking at him from top to bottom, “There is no flower wine, but today’s trial opening is a big reward, as the first customer of the shop, the boss can cook for you personally.”

“Your boss is too stingy, at least you have to give me a free order, open business under my nose, and don’t tell me.”

Qu Cheng said, and put his hand on Xu Cinian’s ass. Xu Cinian avoided it all at once.

“I’m sorry I was too busy before, I didn’t care to tell you, I’m sorry…”

Xu Cinian rarely showed weakness, he bent down and touched Qu Cheng’s head, looking at his thick black hair, he suddenly felt like he was touching a large Dog, this thought amused him again, “Actually, it’s useless to tell you, you must say that the house is too small, I’ll find you a prime location, and don’t be busy with the decoration. I’ve packed it for you.”

Qu Cheng burst out laughing, “You really are the roundworm in my stomach, you guessed it accurately. But I still didn’t like your place, too young to know? How many guests can there be taken by only a dozen tables?”

Xu Cinian made a “cut”, pushed his hand away, and sat on the chair with his legs dangling. “You big old rude wealthy know shit, what is small and refined, and what is concentrated is the essence, do you understand? Big and useless is a piece of shit.”

Qu Cheng stared at his pants and smiled maliciously. He got up, “No, I think I’m big and practical, one sticks five sticks, and you know it best.”

“Googling, whoever told you this, I found that I can’t tell you the serious business, and mention the serious business with you.”

 

Xu Cinian knocked on his head with a big copper pot, wishing to pour tea on his big bird, Qu Cheng quickly grabbed his arm, “Okay, alright. I’m joking with you.”

“I’m serious, I really like your store, but the area is really too small. You don’t even think about the traffic flow of this commercial street. If you want to make money, you have to welcome customers in the door first, right? At that time, how can people do business?”

Xu Cinian showed a playful smile when he heard this, his narrow eyes squinted a little slyly, “Boss Cheng, although your grand court is very prosperous, but you are not an expert in opening a restaurant, don’t forget that I have been in the Xu family for so many years, working in the catering industry, and I understand the minds of diners better than you.”

He took out an old coated paper menu and placed it in front of Qu Cheng, and continued with a smile, “Everything is about VIP now, the more expensive the item, the less the quantity, I know why Japanese food has so little per plate, the gentlemen can’t get enough to eat at all, do they look better than the Northeast big plate dumplings? It’s because of the small quantity and high price, some people who are forced to love this style, you bring him a pot of seaweed rice dipped in mustard, On the contrary, people think that they are not petty and don’t want to eat them.”

“I just like to eat dumplings, and the Japanese devil’s set of raw food is enough.”

“Nonsense, I also love dumplings, the stuffed cabbage and pork are good, wait a minute, it’s you who interrupted me.” Xu Cinian was taken off topic by Qu Cheng, and he couldn’t help but patted him on the arm.

“Oh… it’s not petty when it comes to a pot of seaweed rice dipped in mustard.” Qu Cheng reminded with a smirk.

Xu Cinian was angrily laughed at him, glared at him and then said, “Because of this reason, I deliberately opened the store a little smaller, if the business is good, then we will come first, then wait, if you want to eat later. Standing in line on this street can also give us free advertisements. It doesn’t matter if the business is not good, the storefront has a small investment, and it will be easy to return to the original cost, killing two birds with one stone.”

Qu Cheng was delighted when he heard this, and pinched Xu Cinian’s nose, smiled and sighed, “Okay, Peacock, you’re about to become a virgin, you won’t accept demons for your husband, will you be sucked dry?”

 

Xu Cinian rolled his eyes and smiled softly at him, compared to a convexity.

Qu Cheng couldn’t stop laughing.

After experiencing the severe winter, spring is finally here, although the spring is cold, it can not stop the opening of the new restaurant of Xu Cinian.

Although the name “Zhao Family Private House Cuisine” does not sound very loud, such an antique Chinese restaurant is opened on a commercial street with scarce land and foreign fast food, and it is difficult not to attract attention. The commercial street was crowded, and as soon as the firecrackers were released, the red cloth on the plaque was finally pulled down.

The brothers of Hao Ting all came to the scene, holding flowers and firecrackers in their hands, and shouted “Business is booming Wishing you prosperity!” The little guy sat on Luo Xiaomao’s shoulder, laughing and covering his small ears, Uncle Zhong looked at the big words “Zhao Family Private Room Dish”, excitedly kept shedding tears, it turned out that the Xu family relied on the secrets of the Zhao family to make a fortune, the Zhao family dish fell for so many years, and now finally there is a day to see the light of day, his old bones are worthy of the big miss under the Yellow Spring even if he dies.

Standing in the kitchen, Xu Cinian put on a white chef’s hat, looked at the restaurant in front of him that poured all his efforts, and felt a lot of emotions in his heart, he said that he would come back in the way that his grandfather had taught, even without the Xu family, he would do a good job.

“Daddy Daddy! People are coming in! Hurry up and cook what I want to eat! WoWo trotted all the way into the kitchen, saw a white-clad dad, and pounced on him happily, “Wow! Daddy is so handsome today!”

Xu Cinian smiled hugged him and touched his fleshy little face, “You don’t run around, follow Uncle Xiao Mao, and Dad will make you fried glutinous rice balls in a moment.”

“Mm-hmm, where is Chengcheng?” The little guy laughing with cheeks, the little head looked around, through the kitchen to see a bunch of heads, but did not see Qu Cheng.

Mentioning this Xu Cinian also wondered, he obviously told Qu Cheng in advance that today is the opening, the guy’s men have arrived, where has he gone?

Just thinking about this, Luo Xiaomao stepped on high heels and came in, still wearing a red cheongsam, he was originally beautiful, and today in order to open a new store for Xu Cinian, he specially came to make a guest appearance as a welcome lady, which attracted several guests around him to look back frequently.

“Don’t be stunned, hurry up and cook!” Qu Cheng brought a large group of leaders to dinner, and the official cars at the door were all parked, and they were pulling business for you at the door!”

 

“Huh?” Xu Cinian was startled, took off his hat and ran out, at a glance he saw Qu Cheng, who was wearing a suit and leather shoes, talking with a few politicians with big waists, these “leaders” were all characters that could only be seen on TV, and now suddenly appeared here, even the diners were shocked, and they were chanting: What is the origin of this restaurant owner, even such a big person can be moved.

In order to attract customers for Xu Cinian, Qu Cheng had already greeted all the brothers in the political and business circles in advance, and since ancient times, politics and businessmen did not separate their families, and those who were long and that bureau still expected Qu Cheng to give them money, and naturally enjoyed the scene. As for a few good buddies in the mall, they are also the top predators in S City, and several also need the Green Dragon Gang to cover, of course, they will definitely sell Qu Cheng a face.

For a time, acquaintances on both sides of the government and business met, and the flower baskets were sent put together and directly lined up at the entrance of the street, and the whole restaurant was almost full of flowers and people.

Xu Cinian trotted over, and while Qu Cheng was pushing cups with people, he quietly tugged on his sleeve and dragged people out of the restaurant, “Hey, what are you doing… This pomp is also too big, what do you invite them to do?”

Qu Cheng smiled lowly and reached out to sort out Xu Cinian’s collar, “Your husband is very popular, just casually say a word, they will voluntarily follow, I can’t help it.”

“My restaurant is small, I can’t accommodate so many big Buddhas, they are used to eating mountain treasures and seafood, and they are still rare in what I make?”

Qu Cheng winked at him, “Rest assured, their tongues have been tempered for thousands of years, whether they are good or not is one thing, the key lies in connections.”
