Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 244
"Then it's settled like this. Eldest son and second son, you draw a lot to see who will do this." Mrs. Wang folded two small sticks on the bamboo broom, and held them in her hands. , let the two brothers Shen Zuorong and Shen Yunlai draw, the usual practice is to draw the long lottery.

"You don't need to smoke anymore, brother, you can go." Shen Yunlai rolled his eyes and said.

He's not that stupid, the eldest brother is just waiting to drive Shen Yuan and Ji Laizi out of the village so that they can get back those acres of fertile land.After all, this is against the law, he has no interest at all, why should he do it?
"Then you go." Mrs. Wang threw two thin bamboo sticks on the ground and took out two taels of silver, "Be quick and don't let that bitch catch you."

"Mother, do you have money to earn money for doing this? Then you have to draw lots." Shen Yunlai's eyes lit up when he saw the money, two taels of silver, he can't earn this money by digging in the ground for a year, mother really treats big brother eccentric!
Shen Zuorong glanced at Shen Yunlai in dissatisfaction, and without saying anything, picked up the two sticks on the ground and put them side by side in his hands.

"Come on, second brother, you smoke first." Shen Zuorong stretched out his hand.

"Okay." Shen Yunlai looked at Shen Zuorong's hand with a little excitement, two taels of silver, but it was just to light a fire, and the yard of that cheap girl was a single family, so she couldn't burn someone else's house, so mother just wanted to give it to her. Give the money to the elder brother, this money cannot be earned by the elder brother.

Shen Yunlai looked and looked again, and drew out a stick. When he saw that it was quite short, he immediately looked disappointed.

"Second brother, it seems that this matter still needs to be done by the elder brother." Shen Zuorong smiled and spread his hands, the one in his hand was indeed longer.

Shen Yunlai suppressed the anger in his heart, cursed inwardly that his mother was eccentric, and God was also eccentric, he insisted on helping the elder brother's family, and then left.

"Boss, you're such a sneaky little trick." Mrs. Wang gouged out Shen Zuorong's eyes with a half-smile.

Shen Zuorong grinned: "Mother, your eyes are really thieves, you can see it all."

"You are my son, how can you fool your mother with that little trick? That is to say, your second brother has a real heart and doesn't understand."

It turned out that Shen Yunlai had drawn the long bamboo stick. Shen Zuorong secretly cut off a piece, and the long one became short. Shen Yunlai couldn't see through this trick.

Shen Zuorong used this trick a lot with his younger brother. When the family was separated, he used this trick to pick up a good house and land. Brothers are here to plot against each other for money.

Heh~~ this family!
There was a strong wind that night, and it hadn't rained for a long time. Isn't it a good weather for setting fire?
In the middle of the night, Shen Zuorong got out of bed secretly, and went to Shen Yu'an's house under the moonlight with a pot of kerosene prepared earlier in the morning.

Time went back to the morning of this day, Zuixianlou in Wantian County.

A luxurious carriage came straight to the entrance of the restaurant and stopped, and a noble man wearing a sky-blue fox-fur collar cloak got off and entered the Drunken Immortal Tower with a few followers.

"Where's the boss?" Young Master Jinyi raised his chin slightly and asked the shopkeeper.

"The boss is in the backyard, what's the matter?" The shopkeeper greeted him with a smile.

"Call your boss out." Young Master Jin Yi took off his cloak and threw it to his followers, found a seat in the lobby and sat down.

Seeing the imposing manner of the visitor, the shopkeeper hurriedly bowed and said: "My lord, wait a moment, I'll go right away." After speaking, he hurried to the backyard.

Soon, Zhao Ke strode out from the backyard, and when he saw the man in brocade, he said respectfully, "Second brother, why are you here?" The person who came was Zhao Mo, the second son of the Zhao family, Zhao Ke's second brother.

"Sit." Zhao Mo smiled faintly at Zhao Ke, and Zhao Ke sat down opposite him, and ordered the waiter to serve tea.

"Why did the second brother come here?" Zhao Ke asked.

Zhao Mo took a sip of tea, looked at Zhao Ke and said, "Aunt Zhong suddenly became seriously ill, my father sent me to inform you."

Aunt Zhong is Zhao Ke's biological mother. Zhao Ke stood up when she heard this: "When did you get sick? Was she okay when I came to Wantian?" He came from the county three months ago, and now the biological mother If he gets seriously ill suddenly, can he not be in a hurry?
""I have been sick for a few days, and suddenly I couldn't speak a few days ago, so my father sent me to report to you. "An aunt is sick and needs to send the second son of the mansion to report? Did he come by the way to take over the restaurant?
The business of the restaurant was booming suddenly, and it was inevitable that word would spread to the ears of the elder brother and the second brother. Regardless of whether the aunt was sick or not, the second brother rushed over so quickly.

Zhao Ke vaguely felt that there was something hidden about this matter, but it was impossible not to leave. His biological mother was seriously ill and he had to go back.

Holding the teacup, Zhao Mo said with a smile: "Don't worry, fourth brother, when Aunt Zhong's condition stabilizes, this restaurant will still be under your management."

Zhao Ke realized now that Zhao Mo should be asking for the recipes of three new dishes.But what's the use of just asking for the formula? The taste of the spring water without the girl Eucalyptus is not as good.

Thinking about it like this, Zhao Ke just let him go, and said, "The restaurant will be handed over to the second brother for a while, and I will pack it up and go back to Lingzhou City."

Zhao Mo hummed and continued drinking tea.

Concerned about the safety of his biological mother, Zhao Ke called the shopkeeper, the cook and the staff, introduced Zhao Mo's identity and explained clearly, then packed his things and rushed back to Lingzhou City.

After Zhao Ke left, Zhao Mo called cook Lao Du to the private room on the second floor alone.

"Your name is Lao Du? Are you the cook of a restaurant?" Zhao Mo looked at Lao Du with a smile.

"Yes, my lord." Old Du nodded respectfully.

Zhao Mo knocked on the table with his index finger and reminded: "Don't call me son, call me boss."

Old Du was stunned for a moment, "Yes, boss." He thought that the owner of the restaurant was about to be replaced, but it was a pity that Mr. Zhao Ke had just worked so hard to revitalize the restaurant!
"Dongpo pork, small chicken and mushrooms, and watery meat, are these three dishes that revitalize the restaurant, right?" Zhao Mo's eyes showed the shrewdness of a businessman.

"Yes, it is these three signature dishes."

"Write down the recipes for these three dishes.'

"Yes, but the little one can't write."

"You say, I'll write." Zhao Mo asked his followers to bring paper and pen.

"Yes, boss."

Lao Du and Zhao Ke also signed a confidentiality agreement, but 'Zuixianlou' is a restaurant chain run by the Zhao family, and the second son of the Zhao family came here, so he can still hide it?
So Lao Du dictated, and Zhao Mo wrote down the recipes, cooking tips and even the mastery of the heat of these three dishes, all clearly written down.

After finishing writing, Zhao Mo smiled at Lao Du: "Work hard, and I'll give you processing money when you're done."

Old Du hurriedly bowed his body: "Yes, boss."

"Go ahead and call shopkeeper Li." Zhao Mo explained.

Soon, shopkeeper Li was also called in.

"I heard that the restaurant is a joint venture with a young girl? Last month, [-]% of the profit was given to her?" Zhao Mo asked the shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Li hurriedly nodded respectfully: "That's right, that's true."

"Fifty-fifths? Why should she?" Zhao Mo twitched the corners of his mouth, with a look of contempt on his face, thinking how could Zhao Ke have the ability to do business? He joined a company with a country girl and distributed the money to others for nothing. Isn't he stupid?
