The next day, Song Lin and Song Wan Yue still went to the restaurant in Gu Yi’s carriage. The shopkeeper was even more enthusiastic than yesterday and wanted to offer Song Wan Yue as a god of wealth, as the income from the herbal tea restaurant in the past two days was almost worth half of the past month’s income.
“Miss Song, please take your time getting off the carriage.”
“Miss Song must not have eaten early in the morning, I’ll have the chef make you something delicious.”
“Miss Song, be careful of the threshold, if you feel it is too high to step over, I will have the staff change it later.”
“Miss Song ……”
Song Wangyue, ……
Snap!
The folding fan in Gu Yi’s hand knocked on the head of the shopkeeper, “Shut up!”
At least he had been running the restaurant for more than ten years, but he didn’t even have any insight, couldn’t he see that the little girl was uncomfortable with what he was saying?
“Little one ……”
The shopkeeper was very agitated and was about to say that he couldn’t keep his mouth shut when he saw Gu Yi glaring over, then he collected himself a bit, but still didn’t return to his usual stoic appearance, “Yes, young master.”
“I went back yesterday and thought about it, I can’t send too much today, it’s still the same as yesterday.”
The shopkeeper had been excited all night and had been thinking about Song Wangyue coming over today to ask her to make more pots. Hearing her say that she wanted to make the same amount as yesterday, she was a little anxious, “Song Aunt ……”
“Just do as the little girl says, don’t make more today.”
The shopkeeper was even more anxious, “Young master ……”
“When I say listen to the little girl, listen to the little girl, there is no negotiation.”
The shopkeeper’s anxious forehead was sweating, not caring that Song Lin and Song Wan Yue were there, he pulled Gu Yi to the side, “Young master, do you know how much silver was sold yesterday?”
He said, without waiting for Gu Yi’s answer, he first held out his palm and shook it, “So much, there are only a few times since our restaurant opened that we have sold so much silver, how can we let this opportunity go for nothing?”
The shopkeeper was really anxious, if the master was here, he wouldn’t need to bother with so many words, but it was the young master, the young master is obedient to Miss Song ……
“I can’t let the little girl suffer.”
“No need for Miss Song to suffer, I’ll have the guys help, Miss Song just needs to move her mouth.”
Gu Yi hit him on the head with another folding fan, “You’re silly, this is the ancestral secret recipe of the little girl’s family, how can you let the fellows see it?”
The shopkeeper was about to wail, the silver was right in front of him but he couldn’t earn it, but his heart was cut as if it was bleeding with pain.
“Not only today, but also in the future, only two large pots can be sold at noon and in the evening every day.”
Song Wangyue’s voice came from a short distance behind them.
The shopkeeper turned around abruptly, his normally calm eyes now almost glaring out, “What?”
He said and headed towards Song Wangyue, “Miss Song, we can’t leave the silver unearned.”
He didn’t care how much the herbal tea could earn, even if he gave all the income from the herbal tea to Song Wan Yue he would still be willing to do so, what he wanted was the business that the herbal tea brought to the restaurant, which was much more than the income from the sale of herbal tea. If the herbal tea was not made so much, what if the customers did not drink enough and did not come in the future?
“The boss should know that the more you can’t get something the more you want it, and the same goes for herbal tea. If we make a limited amount daily, there will naturally be people who can’t drink it and will miss coming to the restaurant every day, and by then there will only be more customers in the restaurant, not less.”
The shopkeeper froze in place, he hadn’t thought about the problem in this way.
Gu Yi came from behind him and knocked him again with his folding fan, “Elm-head.”
The shopkeeper froze and raised his hand to touch his own head, staring blankly at the few people who hadn’t turned around yet.
Gu Yi also did not care about him, led Song Lin and Song Wan Yue into the house, the house has long loved ready tea and snacks, after yesterday, today Song Lin also not board, himself poured himself tea, slowly drink.
Gu Yi quietly sat on the chair next to Song Wan Yue, and secretly raised his eyes to see Song Lin drinking tea, and quietly moved his chair towards Song Wan Yue.
Song Lin did not respond.
He moved again.
Still no reaction from Song Lin.
Gu Yi was overjoyed and moved harder ……
Bared-
A stabbing sound, Song Lin looked over and saw Gu Yi almost next to Song Wan Yue, his face instantly darkened.
Gu Yi was so frightened that he hurriedly moved his chair even farther away than just now, “I’m not to blame, it was the chair itself that slipped over accidentally.”
Song Lin,……
Song Wan Yue ……
……
It took a while for the shopkeeper to come in, apparently having thought through Song Wangyue’s words, his face once again wearing the smile of a man facing the God of Wealth, “Miss Song is indeed wise in mind, I sigh at myself.”
When they heard him say this, Song Lin and Gu Yi straightened their backs with honor at the same time.
The corner of Song Lin’s eye happened to see Gu Yi’s movement and gave him a fierce glare.
The shopkeeper took it in his eyes and was busy relieving his young master, “Miss Song, have a few pieces of dim sum and some tea first, I’ll ask the guys to clean the pot.”
……
The three of them went back to the house to rest for a while after making two big pots, Song Wan Yue continued to practice her calligraphy under the guidance of Gu Yi, Song Lin kept staring at it with good eyes, every time Gu Yi came closer to guide Song Wan Yue, he glared at her with a vicious look, but Gu Yi pretended not to feel it, so he was angry that Song Lin had worn out his teeth all morning.
When it was almost noon, Song Wangyue put down her pen and went to wash her hands before Song Lin’s teeth could be saved.
“Father, it’s almost time for big brother to leave class, let’s go get him and have dinner together.”
Song Lin had a simple face, but not a simple heart.
As soon as Song Wan Yue’s words came out, he understood the meaning of the words, it was time for Song Si to come over and take a look, if there were any problems behind him he could also help to make a decision, immediately stood up, “Go!”
Gu Yi was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should follow or not.
If he went along, he was afraid that Song Si would say something about him, he wouldn’t dare to talk back like he did to Song Shen; if he didn’t go, Song Si would still see him when he came to the restaurant.
After hesitating for a long time, he gathered enough courage, “I will go with you.”
Song Lin didn’t say no, the day was hot and if he was alone, he would definitely not take Gu Yi’s carriage, but he couldn’t let Yue’er suffer.
The carriage arrived at the entrance of the academy just as the students were coming out one after another.
The college provided meals, but some of the young masters from rich families were not used to eating and went home to eat. Some of the students who are close by and whose families are poor also go home to eat, which saves them a lot of silver a month.
Song Lin stopped one of the students and asked him to help him to call out Song Si.
Song Si came out in a hurry, and when he reached Song Lin and Song Wan Yue, he asked eagerly, “Uncle, is there something wrong at home?”
He had been coming to the academy for several years, but except for the holidays when someone came to pick up his family, no one had come once on a normal day.
Song Lin patted him on the shoulder and replied with a grin, “It’s a good thing.”
Song Si’s lifted heart fell back, taking a few deep breaths to calm himself before asking, just about to ask what the good thing was, when he saw Gu Yi behind him, his brow furrowed.
