Chapter 117 Power of Attorney

Shen Qing put down her chopsticks after eating a bowl, and so did Luo Qin. She had been eating well with the Shen sisters in the past few days. Chunju and Xiaotao held the bowls and ate without raising their heads.

Seeing that they didn't eat, the two of them felt a little embarrassed.

"Did we eat too much?" They paid them wages and took care of food and housing. The food was not bad. Their family could last a whole day with this kind of porridge.

Shen Qing shook his head hurriedly and said: "You work a lot, so it doesn't matter if you eat more. If you don't eat enough, how can you have the strength to work!"

Shen Hui divided the remaining porridge between the two of them.

Shen Qing looked at the oven and scratched her chin. Luo Qin didn't want to meddle in other people's business. Besides, there was a wound in her heart that hurt when touched, so after eating, she sat aside with her head lowered, not knowing what she was thinking.

Shen Hui couldn't pretend to be wrong, so she asked her sister, "Where do you plan to sell these roast ducks?"

"Go to a restaurant in town and sell it to them. Now we make it ourselves. After a while, we still have to sell the recipe. We just slaughter the ducks and deliver them. We don't care about the rest."

"Ah?" Shen Qing couldn't understand. After spending so much effort, setting up the oven and studying the recipe, didn't he have to make it by himself all the time?
Shen Qing felt that her sister was so naive, "We don't live in the town. We are in a hurry every morning to deliver the duck. How can we have the spare time to roast it and deliver it? Besides, it is best to roast the duck and eat it cold. The taste will be much different.”

Shen Hui said: "Then if they learn the recipe, will we still collect the ducks?"

"Of course, this is one of the conditions. Hey, don't worry about it. I won't be able to explain for a while. In short, you won't suffer any loss."

"That's good, you can figure it out!"

When the fire was almost done, Shen Qing checked the quality, then ordered Huolin to bring the cleaned wooden basin, hitch the donkey to the cart, leave Luo Qin behind, gave her a few instructions, and then gave Chunju and Xiaotao After being assigned a job, he took Huo Lin to the town.

On the way, Huolin asked why he didn't bring Luo Qin with him.

Shen Qing shook his head, "I still don't know where Luo Qin's enemy is. What if I meet her in the town? Wouldn't it be doomed? Besides, after the disaster, people's hearts are in chaos. Leave her here to prevent emergencies."

It is unknown what will happen if refugees come and see that they have food.

Huo Lin drove the donkey in front, and Shen Qing sat on the cart. When they left Crescent Bay, they saw the devastation of the villages on both sides, and they had a personal understanding of the disaster.

Along the way, we met many people who had fled. They were in ragged clothes, with weathered faces and skinny bones.

Most of them are old people holding young children, and there are also women.

There were not many people, but when she entered the town, she found that there were more people begging.

Shen Qing paid attention and saw that Niu Bao and Maodou were not there, and he didn't know what happened to these two little beggars.

"Hey, is this the former Fulai Inn? Why did the name change?" Shen Qing asked.

"When I came here yesterday, I heard that the old shopkeeper and his family ran away before the flood. Now the shop is taken over by Feng Chengcheng, and he is the shopkeeper here."

"Ah! Him?" Shen Qing tried hard to recall Feng Chengcheng's appearance. No matter how he looked at him, he didn't look like a shopkeeper. He was born with the mouth of a waiter.

"Look, isn't that him?"

Shen Qing looked intently and saw a man wearing a narrow-sleeved robe standing in front of Fulai Restaurant.

The robe was too baggy and a bit ill-fitting.

Who else is it if it’s not Feng Chengcheng?

"You two, why don't you sweep the door quickly and sprinkle some water? The cars are coming and going, and the dirt is all there. The food delivery guy takes it directly to the backyard. What are you doing here? Come on, guys. When the business is good, I will be rewarded." This boy fully explained what it means to be successful as a villain. It is not a derogatory term, it is just a compliment.

After Feng Chengcheng finished shouting, he saw the two of them and the cart they brought, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

Shen Qing and Huo Lin were invited in. Of course it was not a private room, but the lobby outside.

Feng Chengcheng asked the waiter to serve tea again. After the two had a sip of tea, Huo Lin seemed to be curious and asked him how he bought this shop.

"It's not all thanks to you two."

The snacks they sent at first looked inconspicuous, just some food. After the shopkeeper knew the price and selling method, he had no interest in participating. He only asked Feng Chengcheng to pay a certain amount of venue fee. After all, it was in his inn. When doing business, this benefit must be given, otherwise everyone will interfere, and his business will not be easy to do.

Later, Shen Qing simply gave him all the agency rights in the town, and Feng Chengcheng became a second-level distributor, with large shipments and a lot of money. Gradually, he earned more.

Of course, outsiders definitely didn't know. It was only when he went back to count the money that he suddenly realized it.

It turns out that the most profitable thing is often not the main business, but the side business.

Just like if they open a restaurant, they will definitely not make as much money from food as from drinks. If they drink tea, they will make more money.

With the money, he wanted to buy a property or start a business by himself.

It happened that there was a flood, and the shopkeeper wanted to run away with his family. The inn was for sale at a low price, so he bought it.

After talking about his own experience, Feng Chengcheng glanced at the donkey cart again. He was very energetic.

"Sister, what kind of novel food have you come up with again? Can you show it to me? We are already acquaintances. If something good happens, don't forget me, brother!" He took the initiative to demote himself to his younger brother and put Shen Qing To praise him, he seems to have forgotten that he is only 13 years old.

Huo Lin looked at Shen Qing and waited for her answer. Anyway, he would not interfere in such business discussions.

Shen Qing rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I'm cooking roast duck. Xiao Linzi, go and bring one out. Shopkeeper Xiao Feng, please call your cook and prepare some side dishes. This one is Roast duck, treat it like I’m treating you to it.”

Feng Chengcheng's eyes lit up a few times, and he immediately asked the waiter to call someone from the back, and prepared the ingredients as she said, "Duck is not cheap, how can I ask you to do it? I'll do it!"

Shen Qing shook his head, "Try it first before talking, and we'll discuss the business later."

Feng Chengcheng saw that she did not relent, and he knew in his heart that this business would not be easy to negotiate.

But it’s okay, having a way is much better than having no way.

Although Qingquan Town is not big, there are many places to eat. Originally, Fulai Inn was neither big nor small, neither up nor down, nor in the middle.

After he accepted it, he realized that business was not easy to do.

I also wonder if the old shopkeeper found an excuse to run away, not to avoid the flood at all.

But the dishes were all gone, so he had no choice but to hold on. When he was sleeping at night, he suddenly thought of Shen Qing. The most important thing in a restaurant is the taste of the food. If there is something innovative, it might be possible to bring the dead back to life. What's wrong with the spicy fish from before? Yes, it's out of stock.

Soon, two fat cooks came over with their apprentices.

Shen Qing asked Huo Lin to help put together two tables. She wanted to make sliced ​​duck and taught them how to make spring pancakes first.
