Chapter 382 What kind of demeanor? Only those who are blind know!
"Your Highness, Princess, this must have been the instigation of that old bastard Shen Quan. He is so despicable and shameless!" Jiang Yan cursed indignantly, his face full of anger.
After leaving Qingfeng Tower, there were no other restaurants to take their prey.
Either the temple is too small to accept it, or the cause of death is unknown, and they are afraid of offending the customers... In short, there are various reasons, but the goal is the same: not accept it!
"Your Highness, Princess, what should we do? We can't finish eating such a big deer by ourselves!" Jiang Yan continued to ask.
Chu Nanyue didn't care: "Shen Quan does have some reputation in Yanzhou, but he is by no means omnipotent. It's still early, let's go to a few more places to ask. If it doesn't work, we can just set up a stall in the market and sell it ourselves. There are always more solutions than problems. What do you think, Aye?"
Xiao Hanye pondered for a moment before speaking: "Jiang Yan, go and find out about Qingfeng Tower's competitors."
Chu Nanyue heard what he meant, and she suddenly realized, "Oh, that's right, why didn't I think of this? The prince is the prince!"
Jiang Yan's eyes lit up and he quickly ran away. This was not a commercial secret, so after a cup of tea, he flew back with a happy face: "Your Highness, Princess, I have heard that there is a Gu Yue Tower behind Qing Feng Tower. These two restaurants have been secretly competing with each other for a long time, but because Shen Quan has a strong background, Gu Yue Tower has been suppressed for so many years. But I guess the owner of Gu Yue Tower must be a very capable person, otherwise how could he stand firm for so many years?!"
Chu Nanyue looked up at Qingfeng Tower. Through rows of towering bamboo trees, she could vaguely see an equally luxurious restaurant behind it.
However, although the two restaurants are next to each other, they belong to different streets. Qingfeng Tower is located in the center of a bustling market, with people coming and going, and it is very lively, while the street where Guyue Tower belongs is more remote, and its geographical location is obviously much worse.
Therefore, although the two restaurants seemed to be next to each other, they were actually not very close. They walked from the front street to the back street and it took them an incense stick of time to reach their destination.
Finally, Xiao Hanye couldn't bear it and leaned over and said, "Come up, I'll carry you."
Unexpectedly, the woman next to him not only turned a blind eye, but also walked straight through him like the wind. The hem of her skirt fluttering in the wind hit his face, like a slap in the face again.
He couldn't help but frown: "A Yue..."
Ah Yue had already gone in, so she couldn't hear anything. Instead, Jiang Yan couldn't help but remind her, "Your Majesty, we're all here..."
Xiao Hanye: “!!!”
He is embarrassed, but as long as he doesn't show it, then it's others who are embarrassed.
He straightened his back as if no one was around, and walked straight to the back door, but he ignored his own conditions, and with a "bang", he crashed into the door frame...
Jiang Yan quickly put down the cart, and asked with a twitch of his mouth: "Prince, are you okay?"
Xiao Hanye pushed him away angrily and walked into Guyue Tower with a look of regret.
What kind of demeanor? Only those who are blind know!
When he walked into the backyard, he heard Chu Nanyue walking towards him: "Aye, what a pity, Guyue Tower plans to close after this month, so they can't take our prey."
Then, I heard her exclaim again: "Ah? Why is your forehead so red? Did you bump into the door frame again? It's all my fault. I was so anxious that I forgot about you. I'm sorry. Does it still hurt?"
The corner of Xiao Hanye's mouth twitched: "...Don't forget me again, okay?"
Chu Nanyue said apologetically: "Okay, okay! I promise not to forget you again!"
A group of idle cooks in the backyard of Guyue Tower looked at the golden boy and jade girl in front of them with complicated expressions.
"Look at how enviable their relationship is. The man is blind, but the woman is still so loyal to him. It's really rare!"
"Who says it's not true? We are just going to lose our jobs, but they are blind. But look at the couple, they are still smiling so happily. So, what reason do we have to sigh here?"
"Yes! A good monk must ring the bell every day. So what if there are not many customers? We must serve everyone well and spend this last month happily!"
"Hurry up and clean every place until it's shiny and bright. It will make the guests happy and we will be happy too, right?"
After saying this, they were no longer gloomy, but became busy in a hurry. One of them even came over to help Chu Nanyue.
"Madam, I think your cartload of prey looks really fresh. How about I recommend other restaurants for you?"
The person who spoke was Mo Shaobai, the manager of Guyue Tower. Although their Guyue Tower could not accommodate the guests now, they had been running the restaurant for so many years, so there must be other ways.
Chu Nanyue replied honestly: "Thank you for your kindness, but now we have offended Qingfeng Tower unintentionally, and I am afraid that no restaurant will accept our prey anymore."
Upon hearing his words, Manager Mo immediately gritted his teeth.
"This is outrageous. Qingfeng Tower is becoming more and more omnipotent now. It doesn't even let small retail investors like you go!"
If there hadn't been suppression from Qingfeng Tower, how could their Guyue Tower have been unable to continue operating?
Their boss is also a stubborn person. He has refused to bow to Qingfeng Tower over the years. Although he has been spending more than he earns every year, he has managed to survive with the idea of trying to save face even if it means doing nothing. If it weren't for the huge losses in the past two years and his age, he would have seen through many things clearly and would have planned to retire and go home to enjoy his grandchildren.
To be honest, his boss is a businessman and he shouldn't be so pedantic. If anyone is to blame, it's the owner of Qingfeng Tower who is really too bullying.
He said one thing in public and another in private. Relying on the fact that his brother was a high-ranking official in the capital, he secretly found some underworld forces and suppressed them wantonly. He even learned from the imperial court and asked Guyue Tower to pay tribute every month. Did he really think he was the emperor?
Paying protection money is a bad habit that has existed since ancient times, but why should we pay Qingfeng Tower an extra share for no reason?
To make friends with your dad, just do it!
But the people have never fought against the officials, and they cannot win even if they fight. After fighting for so many years, they almost lost the family property they had accumulated over the years. Forget it, just stop it.
Chu Nanyue chuckled: "Everything will turn into its own opposite when it reaches its extreme. Qingfeng Tower is so unscrupulous that it will suffer the consequences sooner or later!"
Afterwards, she smiled and thanked Butler Mo, and told Jiang Yan, "Jiang Yan, let's take the prey back and sell it ourselves. I don't believe that old man Shen Quan can bribe all the people in Yanzhou?!"
Xiao Hanye didn't want her to suffer the hardship of setting up a stall. Not only would she be exposed to the wind and sun, but she would also have to be in public every day, so he spoke slowly.
"Butler, since you guys don't plan to do anything here, why don't you accept our prey and let my wife teach you a thing or two. Maybe we can try our best to save the situation!"
