Chapter 67 Bafu Restaurant

  Nangong Yi's eyes did not linger on the gangster for too long. He just glanced at him, then turned back and said lightly: "Why don't you deal with it yet!"

  "Yes!"

  After a respectful response, two tall guards stepped forward, each picked up Zhang the butcher and the rat-looking gangster, threw them in the air, and kicked them out of the crowd.

  "Kacha--"

  After the crisp sound of broken bones, Zhang the butcher and the gangster fell on the bluestone road, howling in pain like pigs being slaughtered...

  Nangong Yi turned around, turned to Shopkeeper Li with a handsome face, and said with a smile: "Junior is late and frightened Old Li!"

  Shopkeeper Li snorted without any appreciation, and snorted: "What do you mean by late? You are hiding aside to test my background. If I am not good enough and defeated by that insect, you will leave and ignore me. Humph! Do you think I am old and confused!" After

  being scolded, Nangong Yi's handsome face did not show any improper expression. Instead, he smiled leisurely and said: "Old Li is still as smart and heroic as ever. I am ashamed of myself."

  Shopkeeper Li waved his hand impatiently: "Come on, come on, don't flatter me. I don't buy your tricks." Then he turned to Caiwei and asked kindly: "Girl, are you scared!"

  "Uh... not bad..."

  Caiwei coughed uncomfortably and glanced at Nangong Yi secretly. In fact, she wanted to pretend to be frightened and pitiful for her mother and Manager Li to see, but since the monster appeared, he has been looking at her vaguely, his eyes are dim, like a ghost, as if he can see through her internal organs, making it impossible for her to escape!

  At this time, the frightened mother has come to her senses, stepped forward, bowed like a candle, choked up and thanked Manager Li and Nangong Yi repeatedly, and called her daughter, ordering her to kneel down and kowtow to the benefactor.

  Caiwei's mouth twitched wildly, messed up in the wind!

  No, she would never kneel or kowtow to that shameless monster, especially when she saw that guy looking at her with a smile, as if waiting for her to kneel down, which made her even more angry.

  She could obviously deal with those two scumbags, who wanted him to come to the rescue?

  Caiwei glared at him fiercely, lowered her head and pulled Mrs. Du, and advised softly: "Mother, as the saying goes: great favors do not need to be thanked. Instead of bowing a few worthless heads here, we might as well remember this favor and find a suitable opportunity to repay it in the future."

  "Oh? I wonder how the girl plans to repay it in the future?"

  Nangong Yi spoke, looking leisurely at the angry girl with a pair of charming eyes as bright as the Milky Way.

  Caiwei gritted her teeth: "..."

  On the other side, Shopkeeper Li looked at Caiwei meaningfully, then at Nangong Yi, and suddenly stroked his beard and laughed, saying: "We are not outsiders, it would be too formal to thank you, let's go and have dinner--"

  Caiwei helped her mother up and declined: "Thank you Shopkeeper Li for your invitation, but today my daughter and mother have some trivial matters to deal with, so we will say goodbye. One day we will definitely come to thank the old shopkeeper in person for saving us today."

  The implication was that she was only willing to thank the old shopkeeper, as for others--

  bah!

  Nangong Yi still smiled gently, as if he didn't understand Caiwei's words, and said calmly: "Miss Wei'er, if you want to come to thank me, please remember that I live in the 'Xinglong Inn', which is easy to find!"

  Miss Wei'er?

  He actually knew her name!

  How did he know her name?

  Caiwei froze, and she felt terrible.

  Nangong Yi looked at Caiwei's cracked expression with satisfaction, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Remember?"

  Caiwei stared for a long while, gritted her teeth and said, "Uh..."

  After leaving Manager Li and his group, Caiwei and Mrs. Du went to a teahouse, ordered a pot of tea to calm down, and after resting for a while, they returned to the street again, asking about the shops tirelessly, and walked through one shop after another. When they were almost finished walking a street, they suddenly heard someone behind them shouting, "Hey, madam - miss - please wait a moment!"

  Caiwei looked back and saw a fat middle-aged man running over breathlessly. He caught up with them, and after catching his breath, he bowed and said, "Madam and miss, I am the owner of the Bafu Restaurant. My surname is Cui and my name is Yuan. I heard that the two of you want to open a restaurant in Goldfish Lane. I wonder if madam and miss can move to the small shop to take a look."

  Caiwei was overjoyed when she heard this, as the saying goes, 'No effort is wasted in finding something after searching everywhere! 'She said quickly: "Okay! Please, Manager Cui, lead the way."

  This place is not far from the Bafu Restaurant, and it only takes a few minutes to walk.

  When she arrived at the Bafu Restaurant, Caiwei looked around the restaurant carefully inside and out. After looking at it, she couldn't help but smile, and felt that this restaurant was tailor-made for her.

  The restaurant is located in the golden center of the town. The storefront is bright and magnificent, and the decoration is elegant and noble. Like other shops on the street, it has two floors. The first floor is a connecting room without partitions. Twelve tables are neatly arranged inside, which can accommodate twelve tables of guests at the same time; the second floor is a private room. Most of the customers are well-known merchants and gentry. There are not many private rooms, only six, but according to the shopkeeper, the turnover of the second floor is much higher than that of the first floor.

  Behind the shop, there is a small courtyard with two entrances, four rooms in the front and back, plus three side rooms on both sides, which is quite spacious. The house had all the furniture and things that were needed. Although they were all old, they were thousands of times better than the house in Mujia Village!

  After looking at the Bafu Restaurant inside and out, Mrs. Du quietly pulled her daughter aside and whispered, "Wei'er, such a good shop and a decent house, I'm afraid it won't be cheap!"

  Caiwei was a little nervous. You must know that the silver of the Mu and Zhou families combined was only two hundred taels, which was probably just a drop in the bucket for taking over this magnificent restaurant!

  Unexpectedly, before she mentioned the silver, the shopkeeper spoke first.

  "I have run this restaurant carefully for more than ten years. It's just that I have to go back for a year or two because of some trivial matters in my hometown. If I want to sell the restaurant, I will definitely not be willing to do so. Therefore, after thinking it over again and again, I am determined to find a partner. What do you think?"

  Caiwei asked doubtfully, "How to cooperate?"

  Manager Cui said, "The restaurant and all the things in it will be used by the young lady, and the house in the back will also be lived in by the young lady, but the monthly profit of the restaurant must be divided into 40% with me, and I will come back from my hometown in three to five years at most, or one to two years at least. At that time, the restaurant must be returned to me. How about it?"

  These conditions are not conditions at all for Caiwei. For her, this restaurant is just a springboard for her success. She has the ability and confidence. In less than three to five years, or one to two years, she can make a good living in this town with this restaurant in just half a year!
