As they talked, they came to the door of the hot pot restaurant. After entering the store, smoke was curling up from the kitchen, and the pot bottoms on each table were steaming. The guests were eating and chatting, and from time to time there was a little laughter.Both the first and second floors were packed with people, and there were many people queuing up on stools with number plates. There was a large heater around to keep everyone warm, so that everyone would not get too cold while queuing.

After a table has finished eating, people will be served in the order of the number plate.The guys shuttled between upstairs and downstairs, serving the guests at each table. When they saw this, several people retreated.A few people bought some other things and went back.

Yun Sujin thought about it all night. Now the Yunding Hotel is very popular and there are obviously not enough waiters. For this reason, she wants to recruit more waiters and shopkeepers. She also wants to open two branches in other places in Kyoto.For this reason, she went directly to Yunding Hotel the next day to discuss it with the shopkeeper and listen to her opinion.

The shopkeeper also agreed, but was a little worried. "Currently there is only one chef, so it is impossible to travel back and forth between the branch and the main store. Moreover, the location of the branch also needs to be considered. It should be chosen in a place with a large flow of people. If there is no flow of people, the business will not be done. The past clerk It also needs to be reliable, otherwise it will only be a disservice.”

"I have thought of all the things you said Yun Sujin. We can recruit a group of waiters first, and then select a few smart people to learn from the chef, and then choose a suitable place to open a branch, and then select some reliable people Used to operate.”

The shopkeeper had nothing to say.

At this time, there was a noise downstairs, and several people hurried downstairs to check. They saw a group of people surrounding a man, punching and kicking him. The man wanted to run into his store, but was dragged back again.Not only was the man beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but his body was also stained in many places.The scholar's clothes were torn in many places. It was a bit unlucky to encounter such a thing so early in the morning.

Looking at the clothes of those people, they were tall and thick, with big shoulders and round waists. Headed by a bearded man who was wearing a short jacket and cotton trousers, one could tell at a glance that he was a thug from a gambling house. This man was probably a gangster who owed money. People chased and beat him.But the man had already arrived in front of her shop, and she couldn't ignore it, so she stepped forward and asked, "Brother, do you know what this man has committed?"

The big man pointed at the man dressed as a scholar on the ground and said: "This guy lost money in our gambling house. He mortgaged his wife to the gambling house before paying back the money. Now he regrets it and wants to take it back, but he can't get the money to redeem it." , I want to be a white wolf with nothing, how can there be such a good thing in the world. So our boss asked us to teach him a lesson.

I never thought about gambling, but you set me up to enter a gambling house, and then you played a trickster to make me lose money to you, and then you said you would lend me the money to get my money back, which made me fall deeper and deeper into the trap. Finally, I lost money. You force me to use my wife to repay the debt if I can't repay the money. You are simply out of your mind, robbing people's daughters and committing injustice.

"You also said that if you didn't have that intention, we would still be able to hold a knife to your neck."

"How much money does he owe you? 5000 taels." The man said.

"Isn't it only 4000 taels? Why did it become 5000 taels?"

"4000 taels was the previous amount. Your wife has been eating and drinking well at our place these days. Don't you need any money?"

Let's do this, I'll pay it back for him. You let the wife go, let him go too. After saying that, he took out 5000 taels of silver notes and put them in the big man's hands.Good luck to you, you met a noble person, and then the whole group took the money and left.

After those people left, Yun Sujin took a closer look at the person in front of him. Although his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his face was straight and upright, and he did not look like a slutty person addicted to gambling.Yun Sujin asked someone to take him in.I found some clothes for him to put on and asked the doctor to give him medicine.

As soon as he came in, he knelt on his knees, bowed his head and said, "Thank you very much, Miss, for saving my life. I just went to Beijing to take the exam and lost all the money I brought with me. I don't have enough money for you now."

"Get up and talk! How could you be tricked into entering the gambling house, losing all your money and even losing it to your own wife?"

"It's a long story. My name is Li Heng. I'm from Yangzhou. Last year, I won the title of scholar. This year, I brought my wife to Beijing to take the exam. Because it's too far away from home, I have been going to Beijing to take the exam for more than a month. I'm almost running out of money. When I was short of money, one day I went out to buy some steamed buns to satisfy my hunger, but someone stole them. Fortunately, the brother chased them back for me."

He saw that I was a little shabby, so he invited me to a restaurant for dinner. We had a good chat. After drinking for three times, he pointed out a way for me, saying that since all the money had been used up, he didn’t have much money left. Well, why not go to the gambling house to try your luck, maybe you can win thousands of taels of silver, which can solve the current urgent need. "

I thought something was wrong, the gambling house was not a good place, but I couldn't resist his temptation and thought that since I already had no expenses, why not give it a try, maybe I would be lucky and could win money and use it as expenses to solve my immediate urgent needs. Tianwo followed him to Mingjing Gambling House. "

"I won a few times at the beginning, but then I kept losing. I wanted to quit, but I didn't have the money to repay the debt I owed to the gambling house. I had no choice but to borrow money from him, thinking I would win it back. Unexpectedly, I lost completely later on.”

"I was unwilling to lose so completely and wanted to continue gambling, but they refused to lend me money and forced me to either pay back the money now or use my wife as a mortgage. I begged them to give me a few days' grace. , they refused, and even came to my home and took away my wife. I asked them for it, but they beat me."

"I think they have been eyeing you and your wife early on, so they designed a plan for someone to steal your wallet and meet you by chance, and drag you into the trap step by step."

"It's all my fault that I couldn't withstand the temptation. Not only did I harm myself, but I also harmed my wife. If it hadn't been for the young lady's rescue, we and my wife would have been harmed by them. The young lady's kindness will definitely be repaid well in the future."

What will your wife do?
"My wife is a merchant. She learned some business skills from her father-in-law and ran her family's shop. However, because my father-in-law's business was framed and we almost lost all our property, my father-in-law became so angry that he fell ill. Soon Then he passed away. From then on, his family fell into decline, so he made a living by washing yarn and sewing."

"I studied hard and took the imperial examination, just to enter the official career, find out the people who framed my father-in-law's business, and seek justice for my father-in-law, so that he can rest in peace." (End of Chapter)
