Wednesday, noon, Heba.

The sky is blue, the white clouds are like cotton, and the sunshine is very good.

Xue Chuchu is cooking in the house.

Xue Yuantong and Jiang Ning were sitting on the small bench at the door, leisurely basking in the sun and chatting.

It's not that they squeezed Chu Chu, but today's dish is fried chicken with chili peppers. The dried chili peppers are used, and the kitchen is full of spicy food, which makes people unable to stay.

Xue Yuantong smelled the strong aroma of spices and meat at the gate.

She lifted her collar and swallowed secretly to maintain her reserve.

The open space outside was quite lively. There were two people dressed like small bosses driving a car to discuss business.

Xue Yuantong listened to the conversation between them and seemed to be planning to rent a bungalow in Heba and have some farmhouse fun.

"Jiang Ning, we will have a hotel here in the future." Xue Yuantong said.

Jiang Ning thought about it carefully, but couldn't recall any useful memories. He didn't know whether there was a farmhouse in Heba in his previous life.

One of the bosses was tall, about 1.9 meters tall, wearing glasses and with a Mediterranean hairstyle.

Xue Yuantong said quietly: "I feel like the boss doesn't have enough financial resources."

"Oh? Why?" Jiang Ning asked.

"I heard that rich people often buy evergreen liquid if they are bald." After finishing speaking, Xue Yuantong looked at Jiang Ning proudly.

"It does make sense."

While the two were talking, the bald boss passed by the door. From a distance, he smelled the fragrance coming from the room. He smiled and said:

"Look at the aroma of cooking. Does it attract you?"

The other man, who was about 1.8 meters tall, had short hair and wore glasses, laughed twice:

"The taste is really amazing. If the people in the city see it, they will be starved to death!"

The bald boss is named Yang Fei. He is in his thirties and comes from a small county town. He was a young talent back then. Later he married a woman from Yuzhou city. His father-in-law ran a daily chemical products company.

Unfortunately, the benefits gradually declined, so Yang Fei found another way out. He felt that the farmhouse project was very popular now. Many city people yearned for the countryside and wanted to experience the authentic rural life and taste rural dishes. This was a business opportunity.

He inspected many places and finally selected Heba. This place is close to the Huishui River and is only a road from the city. The terrain is very good.

"Okay, let's settle on this." Yang Fei decided. He made an appointment with the landlord. The rent was very low, the total investment was very small, and even if the loss was not much, it was time to test the waters.

The other person is Li Liang, who is in his thirties and works as a supervisor at Yang Fei's father-in-law's company. He is now accompanying Yang Fei to inspect the project.

"Sure, but in terms of personnel, I can help you as the store manager, but cleaning and cooks need to be recruited again," Li Liang said.

Yang Fei chuckled: "Isn't there a cook?"

Li Liang thought: "You want to hire someone?"

Yang Fei said: "For farmhouses, it's best to find people who can cook farmhouse meals. For those chefs outside, I tell you, no, they have to be rural women who have been cooking home-cooked meals for decades."

Li Liang agreed: "That's right."

Yang Fei: "And I won't ask for a high salary. I gave you four thousand, which is probably enough."

"They work next to their own homes. This kind of job is quite rare."

In a few words, he settled most of the matter.

"Let's go in and take a look?" Yang Fei said, holding a black leather bag, "I'm hungry at noon, and rural people are very hospitable. Let's have a meal and give us another two hundred yuan to have a taste?"

Two hundred yuan buys a meal for rural people, and the price is definitely quite sincere. He does not bully rural people.

Yang Fei walked to the door and saw the two people on the small bench. He smiled heartily and politely:

"Excuse me, are your parents cooking in the house?"

Xue Yuantong saw the figure in front of her. She said nothing, but Jiang Ning said calmly: "No, it's my classmate."

Yang Fei was stunned. He still wanted to recruit a cook, but now it was shattered?

After all, Yang Fei had been in society for many years. He squatted on the ground and took the initiative to scatter a cigarette. Jiang Ning waved her hand and refused.

"Can I ask two questions?" Yang Fei had a good attitude.

"Ask." Jiang Ning said.

"You usually live here, do you feel as comfortable as in the city?" Yang Fei asked.

Jiang Ning: "It's relatively quiet here and the neighbors are friendly. I like it very much."

Yang Fei nodded: "That's it."

He chatted for a few words, and just as he was about to shamelessly talk about eating rice, Chu Chu's voice sounded from inside the house: "Tongtong, Jiang Ning, the rice is ready."

Xue Yuantong was not good at contacting strangers and ran back to the house. Jiang Ning also returned to the house to help.

The door was empty, and Yang Fei smiled awkwardly and joked: "Grown up, I don't have the shamelessness to eat from other people's food."

Li Liang next to him was fine: "If it doesn't work, how about I speak later? I've been living in rural areas for a long time."

Jiang Ning moved the small dining table to the main room. It was very cool here and you could see the fields outside. It was a good dining experience.

Xue Chuchu brought a large plate of fried chicken with chili peppers and placed it on the dining table. The color of the dark soy sauce was very appetizing, and the aroma floating in the air made it very tempting.

Since there were hard vegetables, Jiang Ning cut a watermelon as usual and served it with rice with crispy rice and a large bottle of Coke.

Just before using their chopsticks, Li Liang and Yang Fei shamelessly came over. Yang Fei took out two red banknotes and said politely:

"I'm planning to set up a farmhouse and want to try your farmhouse food. We won't serve it, so you can serve us a bowl. Just serve one bowl. I'll give you 200 yuan!"

Xue Yuantong and Xue Chuchu met such a person for the first time.

They looked at Jiang Ning together, wanting him to make up his mind.

Jiang Ning said, "Chu Chu, you decide what to cook."

Xue Chuchu looks cold on the outside, but is actually quite gentle inside. The two of them are quite polite. She said:

"I don't need any more money, I'll give you some."

Yang Fei: "How can this be done? You must accept the money!"

Xue Chuchu didn't say anything. She returned to the room and took out two large bowls. These were the bowls used by guests. They usually didn't use them. She also took two brand-new chopsticks.

She moved quickly, first filling half a bowl of rice, then some fried chicken pieces, covering it, pouring it on, and serving it to the two of them.

Yang Fei put two hundred yuan on the dining table. He and his subordinate Li Liang did not stand in the way, but took their rice bowls and ran over there to eat under the shade of the tree.

The tenderness of the chicken combined with the spicy seasoning makes it really delicious.

"It smells good, it smells good!" Yang Fei was full of praise.

Li Liang gave a thumbs up: "Quite authentic."

…

Xue Chuchu, on the other hand, felt worried when she saw the two bills on the dinner table.

No matter what she thought, these dishes were not worth 200 yuan, and it was difficult for her to accept gifts from strangers without any reason.

Jiang Ning ignored it. He picked up his chopsticks and picked out a piece of chicken drumstick with the best meat.

Just when he was about to eat, Xue Yuantong said hurriedly: "Jiang Ning, the bones of the chicken legs are so big, can you chew them?"

Jiang Ning paused and Xue Yuantong blinked.

He said: "Yes, I will chew it for you to see."

Xue Yuantong's little mouth suddenly pursed.

Xue Chuchu looked helplessly at the two people's battle of wits and courage, and she said sadly: "There is too much money, what should I do?"

Jiang Ning came up with an idea: "If you feel burdened, return it to them. If they don't accept it, return one."

Xue Chuchu wanted to do it, so she went to the refrigerator and took two cans of ice Coke. The Coke sold in stores outside cost two yuan and a half a can. This was bought by Chu Chu at a special price in the supermarket. When you mark it down, it only costs one yuan and two.

She took two cans of Coke and gave them to the two people under the shade of the tree. She didn't give them all the money, so she gave them one.

After the meal, Yang Fei and Li Liang came to say thank you: "We will open a farmhouse here in the future, just tell us if you have any business!"

After chatting for a few words, the two drove away in a car.

Xue Yuantong suddenly said: "Jiang Ning, if there is a farmhouse nearby, will there be many guests?"

Confusion appeared on her little face.

Thinking of those strange and diverse guests appearing near the bungalow, Xue Yuantong couldn't help but feel a little timid. Has her peaceful life been broken?

Jiang Ning: "Looking at the business situation of the farmhouse, it might be closed down within a month."

Xue Chuchu: "I feel that those two people just now are quite good at life, and maybe they can do a good job."

Jiang Ning: "Business like farmhouses is quite difficult, and their connections are more important."

No matter what, it can be expected that the bungalow will be different from the past.
