    After Zhong Laoba left Yongxingfang and Chang'an, his plan was to walk back on foot.  After all, he has a fast pace, even if he walks, it won't take long.  But in the end, Zhong Laoba chose to take a carriage, return to Lantian County by carriage, and then return to Shangyuan Village on foot.

    When he arrived at home, Ma Shi was already lying on the bed with herbs applied to his waist.

    Accompanied by the bed, the two children showed worried expressions on their immature cheeks. For them, their mother was the pillar of the family, and if something happened to their mother, they would be anxious.

    Seeing Zhong Laoba's return, Mrs. Ma showed a look of anticipation on his slightly painful face, and asked: "The head of the family, what is the purpose of the imperial court notifying you to go to Chang'an?"

    With a smile on his face, Zhong Laoba replied: "The imperial court notified me to go to Chang'an because a restaurant opened in Chang'an and needed manpower. The imperial court recruited specially for soldiers like me who had no disabilities. Every month  , a full hundred dollars."

    "Ah, really?"

    When Ma Shi heard this, he suddenly became energetic.

    One hundred dollars is a lot of money for the family.  Even if Mrs. Ma worked in the fields all day, she would not get much money.  Now, Zhong Laoba is lucky enough to be able to work in Chang'an.  Stable one hundred dollars a month, this is an opportunity.

    Zhong Laoba said: "Naturally it is true."

    Mrs. Ma was still a little skeptical, and asked: "Master, is this reliable?"

    "Reliable!"

    Zhong Laoba nodded hastily, and explained: "You don't know, there are a hundred veterans with the same background as me, and they are all people needed by the restaurant. What's more, this is a matter arranged by the court. Can it be fake?  "

    "I've also inquired about it. The person behind the restaurant is named Du Qi. He is a nobleman. He not only runs the restaurant, but also runs the tea shop. The best tea in the world is run by Mr. Du."

    "The tea shop run by the family is making money every day and has countless powers. How can it be unreliable. Moreover, Du Qi's father is Du Ruhui, a well-known man. He is from the Qin Palace."

    "Could there be a lie about what happened in Prince Qin's mansion?"

    Zhong Laoba looked complacent, and said: "Among the hundred people, only I know a little bit of words. Mr. Du asked me to manage everyone. Although I am only one hundred yuan for the time being, I will adjust it after three months.  , as long as I perform well, I will definitely be higher. When I have money and establish a foothold in Chang'an, then maybe I can take our whole family to Chang'an."

    "Yeah, that's a good thing."

    When Ma Shi heard this, a bright smile appeared on his rough and dark face.

    Even though her waist was uncomfortable, she felt relieved when she heard the good news about Zhong Laoba.  Because Zhong Laoba has something to do, the family has a pillar again, and there is someone who can support the family, so she can feel relieved.

    Zhong Laoba said seriously: "I have to tell my second brother about this."

    "Say what, don't say!"

    Ma Shi's face suddenly turned cold.  She snorted, and said angrily, "At any rate, they are also in Shangyuan Village, and they are all in the same place."

    "Although the old parents have passed away, the brothers separated and lived in the same place."

    "But anyway, they are also brothers."

    "Since I fell and injured yesterday, and you come back now, have they come to visit half of them? Aunt Wang next door is kind-hearted. Thinking that our family's life is not easy, she came to visit with an old hen and asked me to kill her."  I ordered chicken stew and drank it."

    Mrs. Ma has a pungent temper, and said forcefully: "These relatives are unreliable. It is better to rely on Aunt Wang than to rely on them. What do you do to greet such a person."

    "Yes Yes!"

    Zhong Laoba is simple and honest, so he can only accept it.

    For family affairs, he listened to Ma Shi.  Since Ma Shi said, he will listen to Ma Shi.  What's more, Mrs. Ma fell from the mountain and twisted her waist. She was so uncomfortable that her brother didn't come to visit her.

    Zhong Laoba also had some thoughts in his heart.

    Mrs. Ma frowned, rubbed his waist lightly, and continued: "The head of the family, you can go to Chang'an with peace of mind, and I will take care of it at home. Although the eldest and second child are not very old, children are sensible and can cook and eat."  , our family is fine. We are fine. Although my injury is immobile for the time being, it will be fine after a few days of recuperation. You can go to Chang'an without worry."

    Zhong Laoba said: "Thank you for your hard work."

    Ma Shi said: "What's the hard work, this is what I should do."

    Zhong Laoba didn't say anything, but told the two children to take good care of Mrs. Ma and be filial to their mother.  He didn't stay long at homeAfter announcing the good news, he put on simple clothes and left again.

    There is still a long way to go from Shangyuan Village to Chang'an.

    Tomorrow, we have to meet up.

    He is also the person in charge, he can't be late, he has to be early.  But this time, Zhong Laoba didn't take the carriage anymore, but walked on foot by himself.  Because of this encounter, he has enough time to save the money for taking the carriage.

    Before noon the next day, Zhong Laoba arrived outside the tea shop early.  Because he was the person in charge, when he arrived, Du Qi happened to be there, so he called Zhong Laoba to the tea shop.

    Du Qi looked at the rather simple and honest Zhong Laoba in front of him, and said seriously: "Zhong Laoba, you can read some words, and you are the person in charge of all the veterans. My son's expectations for you are different from other people's."  .¡±

    When Zhong Laoba heard this, he said excitedly: "Young master, please rest assured, Zhong Laoba will definitely go all out to not let you down. Guaranteed, finish the restaurant business."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "You are soldiers, you are people who came out of the battlefield. Although you are no longer a soldier when you work for a restaurant, you are now able to demand the discipline of a soldier and look like a soldier. Especially you  He is a responsible person, he must be responsible, he must have courage, and he cannot be timid in doing things, understand?"

    Zhong Laoba said: "The villain understands!"

    Du Qi changed the subject and said again: "I still said yesterday, since you are doing things for the restaurant, no matter what happens in the restaurant, you will put the interests of the restaurant first, understand?"

    "clear!"

    Zhong Laoba replied again.

    He clearly remembered that this was the second time Du Qi said it, so Zhong Laoba paid attention.

    Du Qi continued: "Since you already understand, go down and wait. Jin Wuque will arrange all your affairs. As long as you do things conscientiously, my son guarantees that you will have no worries about food and clothing."

    "Thank you, Young Master!"

    Zhong Laoba hurriedly thanked him.

    In his heart, he also breathed a sigh of relief.  Facing Du Qi, although Du Qi was young, he was very nervous in front of Du Qi, really nervous.

    Du Qi waved his hand, and Zhong Laoba stepped back.

    Du Qi stayed at the tea shop to drink tea until the afternoon.  All those who left have returned.  These people were counted by Zhong Laoba, and then Jin Wuque led more than a hundred people straight to the location of the restaurant.

    When Jin Wuque arrived at the restaurant, he arranged the affairs of Zhong Laoba and the others properly, and then went to arrange the affairs of many women. There were quite a few of these women sent from the Qin Palace, and they had to be properly arranged.

    These women all live in restaurants.

    After all, the restaurant is spacious and there is enough yard in the backyard, so there is no problem for these people to live together.  In fact, even Zhong Laoba and others lived in the restaurant.

    All people live in it.

    It's just that men and women are separated.

    Time flies, and it is the sixth day of May in a blink of an eye.

    In the early morning, the sun rises.

    The golden sunlight fell from the sky, making the entire restaurant glow golden and bright, as if it had been covered with a layer of gold.

    Du Qi arrived early.

    Today is a day of great joy. Du Qi is responsible for ushering and seeing off. After all, there will be many dignitaries coming, so he has to show up in person, especially if Li Yuan may visit in secret, he must treat it with caution.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
