Chapter 63
Jiang Yunzhu frowned, she didn’t object to competition, but the store’s behavior was too low, it was disgusting!
In this era, there is no copyright protection and anti-unfair competition law, otherwise they can definitely go to jail.
“How could they do this!” Li He and others also heard the news and came out to check, and when they saw it, they were furious.
“Who is the owner of this store?” Xue Jing was already in a hurry, seeing this, he went straight to the door and shouted angrily.
“I’m the owner of this store, what’s the matter?” Shopkeeper Meng came out triumphantly in a brown cocoon gown.
“Didn’t you decorate it according to our restaurant? How dare you call it Xishanju!” Xue Jinghong said with red eyes.
“Why don’t I dare to call it Xishanju? Have the words Xishanju been contracted by your family? Besides, which eye of yours saw that I decorated it according to your restaurant? Everything in this store is my own idea.” ” Said Shopkeeper Meng.
“You!” Xue Jing raised his fist and was about to beat him up, but he was clearly making unreasonable words.
Shopkeeper Meng was not afraid at all, he just looked at him like that, beat him, and sent him to prison after the beating, to see what Qishanju would do!
“Xue Jing.” At the critical moment, Jiang Yunzhu called out to Xue Jing, and then signaled Li He to stop him.
Li He was a little more sensible than Xue Jing, so he quickly pulled Xue Jing back.
Shopkeeper Meng smiled, and said to Jiang Yunzhu, “Hey, isn’t this Boss Jiang? I will open a new store in two days, and all drinks and food will be discounted by 50%. You must come and join us!”
Jiang Yunzhu looked at him, “Definitely.”
Her reaction was beyond Shopkeeper Meng’s expectation. He thought she was either leaving angrily or crying. After all, a girl can’t cry when something happens.
“Then wait for your boss.” Shopkeeper Meng said.
Only then did Jiang Yunzhu turn around and return to Qishanju.
Xue Jing still felt aggrieved in Qishanjuli. He looked at Jiang Yunzhu, wanting to say something, when he suddenly found her sitting there with her eyes downcast without saying a word, and his heart skipped a beat. He patronized himself and got angry, but he didn’t consider her feelings.
When the store first started to be renovated, Jiang Yunzhu didn’t have much money. More than half of the things in the store were bought by her from all over the county, and then decorated by herself.
Now that something like this happened, she should be the one who suffers the most!
Thinking of this, Xue Jing’s heart was on fire, wishing to kill that shopkeeper Meng.
The others felt similarly, standing there with their heads down.
Jiang Yunzhu smiled at this moment, “What are you doing standing there, it’s noon soon, everyone go get busy.”
“Boss.” Xue Jing and others said in unison.
“Everyone has to work harder in the future!” Jiang Yunzhu said.
“Yeah.” Everyone immediately agreed, and they all held back their energy. They must not let their neighbors rob them of their business.
“Then go get busy.” Jiang Yunzhu said.
Everyone dispersed.
What the next door did was disgusting to Jiang Yunzhu, but if it was just like this, Jiang Yunzhu would not care about it, fakes are always fakes, Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and Jiang Yunzhu is confident that they will never take away his business.
She lowered her eyes just now, just thinking about another thing.
Shopkeeper Meng did this because he was simply envious of Qishanju’s booming business, or there were other reasons.
If shopkeeper Meng is supported by someone, such as Baofulou, then troubles will follow.
After all, Qishanju’s foundation is superficial… She remembered that shopkeeper Meng said just now that they would offer a 50% discount for opening!
Who knows if the 50% discount is for one day or for a long time.
It really made Jiang Yunzhu guess that the restaurant next door was opened by shopkeeper Meng and shopkeeper Song from Baofulou.
What’s going on? Recently, more and more sons and daughters in Wuling County like to live in Qishan. It seems that eating there has become a fashion. Those remaining people also gradually heard about the name of Qishanju, and they all wanted to go there to have a look.
There are only so many people eating out in the county. These days, the running water in Baofu Building has dropped by 40%. Shopkeeper Song is seeing it and is anxious.
This day, he wandered around and turned to the vicinity of Qishanju, just in time to meet shopkeeper Meng.
Shopkeeper Meng’s shop has not been rented out yet, and every day it is vacant, he loses a lot of money. At that time, Jiang Yunzhu wanted to rent his shop but he didn’t. He was always resentful in his heart, and now seeing that Qishanju’s business is so good, he is naturally angry.
When two people meet in this way, they naturally have a common topic.
Suddenly, Shopkeeper Song had an idea, he could rent Shopkeeper Meng’s shop, and build another Qishanju! He had to admit that Jiang Yunzhu was capable, whether it was the decoration of her store, her method of depositing bank members, or the dishes she cooked, they were all refreshing.
But he also has an advantage. Baofulou has been open for so many years, and his net worth is comparable to that of Qishanju, which has just opened.
He can drag her to death.
At that time, his Xishan residence will be authentic in Wuling County.
Moreover, he also has a selfish intention, Baofulou was left to the two brothers by his father, and the second son Song can take a large sum of money from him every month without doing anything, why? If he took the opportunity to get all the money to the new store and leave an empty shell for Song Laoer, wouldn’t he be able to get rid of him in the future?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was a good idea to kill two birds with one stone, so he immediately told shopkeeper Meng that he wanted to rent a shop.
Shopkeeper Meng is also a ghost, and when I hear him say it, I think of a lot.
Renting a shop is naturally a good thing for him. How much does it cost to rent a shop for a year? He watched Qishanju’s people come and go every day, and roughly estimated that it could earn his rent for two to three years a month, which is a big piece of fat.
So he suggested that he partner with Shopkeeper Song, one of them will provide the shop, and the other will provide the money and people, and they will share the money together.
Shopkeeper Song disagreed at first, thinking that it was a good thing for him to do his dream, but shopkeeper Meng refused to let go.
Later, shopkeeper Song figured it out. In the beginning, this Xishan residence was definitely not making money. Wouldn’t it be a good thing to have someone help him fill in the hole? When shopkeeper Meng couldn’t hold on anymore, he kicked him away, just right.
What’s more, at the beginning, he shouldn’t show up.
So the two signed a contract, with Shopkeeper Meng acting as the shopkeeper to run Xishanju, and Shopkeeper Song supporting him behind, and the two split the money after they made money.
The two of them made up their minds to destroy Qishanju and replace it.
Because of the incident next door, Qishanju was a little silent today, everyone was immersed in their work, and they didn’t laugh like before.
At night, everyone was already asleep, and Jiang Yunzhu stood alone in the kitchen, looking at the pots and pans and thinking about something.
“Do you need my help?” Shen Fengming came in and asked.
He seemed to have just been bathed, with a touch of water vapor on his skin, and under the warm yellow candlelight, there was a little luster.
On such a night, when he suddenly appeared like this and asked such a question, Jiang Yunzhu’s expression softened unconsciously.
She looked at him, he wanted to help her? On the contrary, in his capacity, he can help her solve the current problem casually, but he can’t help her all the time.
Jiang Yunzhu smiled and said, “Should not be used.” She already had a plan.
Shen Fengming looked at her, her eyes were shining brightly, like a river of stars flowing, making people want to immerse themselves in it.
The next day it was not time for dinner, but the next door was already bustling with activity. The lion dance team occupied half of the street. The battle was much bigger than when Qishanju opened.
In particular, those lion dance teams did not know whether it was intentional or not, they actually blocked the entrance of Qishanju.
A lot of people came, some of them came to Qishanju for dinner, they saw that there was a Xishanju opened next door, and the decoration was almost the same as Qishanju, and they pointed there. There were also those who were attracted by the lion dance team, and when they saw two very similar shops, they felt that there was something lively to watch, so they gathered there.
Shopkeeper Meng stood in front of the shop door, with a happy face, and from time to time he would glance at Qishanju, his eyes full of complacency.
Qishan Juli, everyone was angry.
“I asked them to block the door.” Xue Jing brought out a basin of **** water from the back kitchen, and was about to splash it on the lion dance team.
Li He looked at Jiang Yunzhu, and she had to make up her mind about this matter.
“Stop.” Jiang Yunzhu called Xue Jing to stop. There are so many people outside, he poured out this basin of blood, it was a disgrace to shopkeeper Meng, but he was also a disgrace.
“Boss.” Xue Jing said anxiously.
Jiang Yunzhu looked in the store, but there was no one there anyway, “Come out with me,” she said.
After speaking, she went out.
Xue Jing and others followed immediately.
As soon as she came out, shopkeeper Meng saw her, but he didn’t look her straight.
Jiang Yunzhu was not annoyed either, and stood there watching.
The lion dance team danced for a quarter of an hour, and it was time for dinner. The streets were full of people. Some people were complaining that the lion dance team blocked the door of Qishanju, so they couldn’t go in to eat, and some were waiting for Xishanju to open. Said that they have to pay half price for drinks and food today!
Feeling that it was almost done, shopkeeper Meng stretched out his hand, and the lion dance team stopped.
There was a ladder next to him. At this time, according to the procedure, he should tear off the red cloth on the store plaque and announce that Xishanju has officially opened for business.
His hand has already grasped the red silk.
At this moment, a clear voice said, “Shopkeeper Meng, I want to compete with your chef from Xishanju. I don’t know if you dare to accept it.”
Jiang Yunzhu’s words were light and light, but they fell on everyone’s ears like thunder, she was going to kick the hall!
Everyone looked at her, and saw that she was wearing a satin dress with a light grass pattern, and she was slim, like a little girl, but the calmness in her eyes and the look on her face made people dare not underestimate her .
Shopkeeper Meng was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, holding the red silk and looking viciously at Jiang Yunzhu, how dare she!
Jiang Yunzhu looked at him with a smile, and she didn’t want to, but they were so shameless, she thought about it, and felt that if she wanted to continue driving this Qishanju, it would be best to cut the mess quickly.
“Why, don’t you dare?” Xue Jing immediately asked fiercely, he just wanted to yell twice now to express the agitation in his heart. Sure enough, the boss is the boss, he followed her, that’s right.
As soon as he said this, the crowd immediately exploded.
“Shopkeeper Meng, compare!” It’s not a big deal for someone to watch the excitement.
“Shopkeeper Meng, you dare to decorate like others, and even chose such a name on purpose. You have done everything you should and shouldn’t do. Why, are you scared now?” This is not used to Shopkeeper Meng, and I want to be fair talk.
“Shopkeeper Meng, I don’t even dare to compare. I don’t think you need to open a restaurant anymore, just close it as soon as possible.” Someone sighed.
“That’s right, I saw that the chefs in the store were not very skilled, so I just opened a restaurant here.”
…
Everyone yelled, as if shopkeeper Meng was put on the fire.
On a very cold day, Shopkeeper Meng broke out in a hot sweat, beads of sweat streaming down his back. Can he accept Jiang Yunzhu’s challenge? Does he know that Jiang Yunzhu’s cooking is delicious, so if he accepts it, it’s good to win, but what if he loses? He doesn’t need to open this shop.
There’s a big chance of losing, at least he thinks that Baofulou’s chef is not as good as Jiang Yunzhu, otherwise she wouldn’t have robbed her of the guests.
But if he doesn’t pick up, can’t his shop open today?
He subconsciously looked at the crowd, and finally found shopkeeper Song in a corner of the crowd.
what to do? He looked at him questioningly.
Shopkeeper Song never expected that a girl like Jiang Yunzhu would be so bold. Of course he didn’t want to accept it, because he had already had people buy Qishanju’s dishes and tried them for the chef in the store, trying to make him imitate the exact same dishes.
But after the chef finished eating, he just said, “I’m not as good as her.” Then he gave up, this…
His plan is to use money to bring down Qishanju.
But don’t accept…
Suddenly, he thought of a person and nodded to Shopkeeper Meng.
Shopkeeper Meng wondered if he was dazzled, and he was still staring at Shopkeeper Song.
Shopkeeper Song nodded his head twice more, then turned around and left in disgust. Today’s opening, with Jiang Yunzhu making such a fuss, there is nothing to see at all.
Instead, Jiang Yunzhu was fulfilled.
But it doesn’t matter, when he picks up that person and wins over Jiang Yunzhu, everything will be solved naturally.
Shopkeeper Meng accepted Jiang Yunzhu’s challenge, but just as Shopkeeper Song guessed, it took him a long time to accept it, and he obviously lacked confidence in himself, so it is estimated that their cooking skills are not very good. That being the case, who would go to their house for dinner.
Half price? Are they cheap eaters? Well, some people really are. But everyone didn’t go to Xishan Residence, so they went, it didn’t seem like they were losing face.
Xishanju has been in trouble for a long time, but after the actual opening, there are very few people.
The nearby Qishanju was overcrowded, and shopkeeper Meng was so angry that his teeth itch. He immediately went to Shopkeeper Song to discuss it, and when he came back, he had a solid foundation in his mind, and when he looked at Qishanju, he regained his previous arrogance.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yunzhu and shopkeeper Meng sat together and formally talked about cooking skills.
“Boss Jiang, since it’s a competition, there must be something to win!” Shopkeeper Meng said this in a rather aggressive manner.
Jiang Yunzhu smiled, “What kind of prize does Shopkeeper Meng want?”
Shopkeeper Meng’s eyes turned around her, “If Boss Jiang loses, he will work for me for three years.”
As soon as he said this, Xue Jing and others’ eyes shot fire, how dare he say that.
Jiang Yunzhu didn’t respond, she just asked, “If shopkeeper Meng lost?”
“Here… I’ll give you one hundred taels of silver.”
“I’ve worked for shopkeeper Meng for three years, and it’s only worth a hundred taels of silver? It’s just two months of running water in my Shanju. Shopkeeper Meng should know that if I work for you, I won’t be able to open my Shanju.
This lottery gap is too big!
If Shopkeeper Meng was me, would he agree? “Jiang Yunzhu asked unhurriedly, pressing on step by step.
Shopkeeper Meng has also been in business for so many years, and he has seen everyone, but facing Jiang Yunzhu, he always feels suppressed. He didn’t know how this feeling came about, but he just couldn’t shake it off, couldn’t erase it.
“What does Boss Jiang mean?” He asked.
“If I lose, I will work for you for one year. If I win, I want this Xishan residence.” Jiang Yunzhu said, so the conditions are reasonable.
“Impossible!” Shopkeeper Meng almost jumped up and said.
Jiang Yunzhu said, “The sum of the house deed and land deed of Xishanju is only worth about five hundred taels, oh, plus decoration, it can be a little more, but it is only the profit of Qishanju for less than a year. Not much, and even a loss.”
Indeed, in terms of money, Jiang Yunzhu was at a loss, but shopkeeper Meng never thought of selling a shop. The shops on this street are all hens that can lay golden eggs, and no one usually sells them.
“This condition is not acceptable.” Shopkeeper Meng said.
Jiang Yunzhu stopped talking, and sat there, as if he would not talk about anything except this condition.
Shopkeeper Meng gritted his teeth, and suddenly heard coughing outside, he said, “I’ll go out for the convenience.” Then he went out.
The one coughing outside was naturally Shopkeeper Song.
The two fought with each other, and finally shopkeeper Song patted his chest and said that he would definitely not lose. If he really lost, he would give him back the silver, and shopkeeper Meng finally agreed.
When shopkeeper Meng came back, he discussed with Jiang Yunzhu the prize of the competition, and then how to compete and who to invite as judges.
The two talked for half an hour before everything was finalized, they wrote the contract, each signed their fingerprints, and the contract would take effect only five days later when the competition started.
The two dispersed, and Jiang Yunzhu led them back to Qishan Residence.
At this time, when the enthusiasm was down, Xue Jing and the others began to worry again. In case Jiang Yunzhu lost… It would be nothing if they lost their jobs. Jiang Yunzhu would work for Shopkeeper Meng for a year? Who knows how he will embarrass her.
“Boss, this…” This was no joke, Xue Jing wanted to persuade Jiang Yunzhu not to compare.
The others were similar, full of worries.
“Let’s do things, I know what to do.” Jiang Yunzhu said. She thinks that in Luzhou, there is really no chef who can compare to her.
Out of Luzhou? I’m afraid five days is not enough to bring over chefs from other places. Besides, even if she is a famous chef from other places, she may not necessarily lose, so they don’t have to worry so much.
Everyone dispersed, not daring to disturb her.
Only Shen Fengming was left, and he has been watching from the side all day.
At this moment, he looked at her, frowning slightly.
Is he worried about her? Jiang Yunzhu thought to himself, but he is in Qilinwei, isn’t it also dangerous, and even if he is not careful, he will die. But even so, I didn’t see him retreating. He should be able to understand her!
As a chef, if she doesn’t even dare to compete in this kind of competition, then she will lose that enterprising spirit, why not close the shop and do something else.
Shen Fengming’s brows slowly relaxed.
Jiang Yunzhu smiled.
Here, Shopkeeper Meng is chasing after Shopkeeper Song to ask about the competition. He has promised him that he will win.
“I’m going to invite the old man right now, and let him go out to invite that man. If you stop me, I won’t be able to catch up.” Shopkeeper Song said.
Shopkeeper Meng hurriedly backed away and asked him to invite, and then asked, “Who do you want to invite?”
Shopkeeper Song smiled slightly, “Have you heard of the Marquis of Anping in Luzhou? There is a chef Gao in the mansion. In the early years, my father was kind to him!”
Shopkeeper Meng has also been to Luzhou a few times, so of course he knows the Anping Marquis Mansion, it is really a noble family. The cooks in their mansion, not to mention Luzhou, are among the best in Zhongnan.
If they can really invite the cook in their mansion, they will surely win!
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Meng finally smiled. He couldn’t wait to start the competition.
