Just now I saw that Xu Shan had a tough attitude. Even if he paid the rent to the guy now, he would never rent out the shop again.
What's more, Jiang Yunyi is behind it.
The top priority is to stabilize the popularity that has been accumulated with great difficulty, and then slowly settle the score with Yunyi Book Club and Xu Shan after we have established a firm foothold later.
"Master, the shops in the West Market are in short supply. There are currently no vacancies. It is difficult to find another shop in the West Market."
On the side, Zhao Hai shook his head depressedly.
He shuttles back and forth in the West Market every day, and he clearly knows where the shops are closed and where the new ones are opened.
Besides, if you want to rent a shop, you have to discuss it with the owner in advance.
There are very few people like Xu Shan who have no business ethics and rent out a shop on the first day and then evict them the next day.
"Then let's give a lecture on the street tomorrow!"
Li Mo glanced in the direction outside the door. If this was the case, he would not be able to make money from selling seats and copies. He should still be able to make some money from rewards.
As long as you persist for a few more days and you have money, you can find a bigger place.
"Young Master wants to give a lecture on the street? How can this be done?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Song's face darkened again. After thinking for a while, he turned to look at Zhao Hai, "Xiao Hai, what time is it now? Has the West Market been closed?"
"It's still half an hour before the market closes."
Zhao Hai thought about it and replied.
"It's not too late, Lang Jun. I'll go out and maybe I can find a place for the book club to stay."
Xue Song felt relaxed after hearing this and said hurriedly.
"Can you find a place to stay?"
Hearing this, Li Mo and Zhao Hai looked at Xue Song at the same time, a little surprised. Xue Song came here from Jiangzhou Prefecture in Shanxi to seek life. How could he find a place to stay if he was unfamiliar with the place.
"Mr. Lang doesn't know. This time Xue Song went to Xidu to seek life and joined his old friend. Speaking of my old friend, he can be regarded as the queen of the general."
When he spoke again, a trace of recollection flashed in Xue Song's eyes.
"Behind the gate?"
Li Mo and Zhao Hai were shocked again.
"Well, my brother's name is Qin Fang, and he is the great-grandson of Marshal Qin Qiong, one of the 24 heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Uncle Qin Ying, the direct grandson of Marshal Qin, was dissatisfied with Emperor Wu's treatment of my Xue family on the Golden Palace.
He had a dispute with Emperor Wu, and in a fit of rage, he bumped his head against the dragon pillar of the Golden Palace, and he fell into despair ever since.
My brother Qin Fang also fell into the rivers and lakes and began to make a living!
It is said that he opened a restaurant in Nanshi, Dongdu. He wrote to me a month ago. At the moment, Mr. Lang has no place to stay. I will go over and find my brother. He has been in Xidu for a long time. Maybe he can help.
I'm busy helping my book club solve its dilemma."
Xue Song explained the situation of the other party.
"He is actually a descendant of Marshal Qin!"
Li Mo and Zhao Hai couldn't help but sigh with emotion. They thought about how glorious and glorious the Xue and Qin families were at the beginning, but in the end, their descendants... That sentence really came true, thirty years later
Hedong, Hexi in thirty years!
In fact, if Li Mo had calculated carefully, he would not be as surprised as he was now.
After Emperor Wu ascended the throne, in order to maintain his position, he attacked many forces of the founding fathers, whether openly or covertly. Now, no descendants of that group of heroes are still in power in the court.
Even if he is an official, he is only a minor official such as a county magistrate or a school captain.
"Lang Jun, it's still too late for Xue Song to rush over now."
Having said that,
Xue Song didn't hesitate and stepped out.
"You haven't recovered yet, how can you go out? It's better to wait until you recover."
Seeing this, Li Mo paused and hurriedly stopped Xue Song.
Looking for Qin Fang is certainly an idea, but Xue Song's body may not be able to handle it.
"Please don't worry, Mr. Lang. We martial arts practitioners are stronger than Mr. Lang thinks. Those residual poisons can't do anything to Xue Song. Besides, I just went to Nanshi and nothing else."
Xue Song smiled and reassured Li Mo. At the same time, he punched twice to show that there was nothing wrong with his body.
"Then...if that's the case, let Xiaohai send you there! But...this is our own business after all, and we can't force it if the other party is in trouble."
Seeing that Xue Song was recovering well, Li Mo did not refuse. Storytelling in a restaurant was also an option.
Besides, Xue Song is one of our own now, so there is no need to be too polite.
"Don't worry, Sir! Xiaohai just needs to show me the way to Nanshi."
Xue Song nodded.
He knew that Qin Fang settled in Nanshi, and he also knew the name of the restaurant, but he didn't really know how to get to Nanshi.
"Okay, Xue Langjun, I'll take you there!"
Zhao Hai was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly.
"Don't call me Xue Langjun or Xue Langjun. I'm a few years older than you. From now on, just call me big brother. Hello, Lang Jun, I'll go first!"
Xue Song waved his hand and was about to go out.
"Well, big brother!"
After Zhao Hai nodded to Li Mo, he hurriedly followed him.
.......
Nanshi, as the name suggests, is located at the south end of Luoyang, the eastern capital.
If the West Market is lively and full of small shops, the South Market is relatively high-end, with mostly restaurants and inns. Most of the people coming and going are wealthy businessmen and people from other places who come from other places.
After a few sticks of incense,
Xue Song appeared alone in front of a restaurant in Nanshi.
I saw that this restaurant, although it was three stories high, had gray bricks and gray tiles, and the eaves were in tatters. Some weeds had grown up on the eaves, but no one had taken care of them.
The door frame is also made of gray wood and covered with dust and no one has cleaned it. There is a rough wooden plaque hanging on the restaurant with the three characters "Yi Bo Lou" written on it.
"Yi Bo Restaurant? This should be my brother's restaurant!"
Seeing such an appearance, Xue Song's heart sank.
As the saying goes, people rely on clothes, and the same is true for restaurants. If they look bad, business will definitely not be very good. Turning around and looking across from Yibo Building, there is also a restaurant called Zuixian Building!
I saw this restaurant with its carved eaves reflecting the sun and painted pillars with flying clouds. The green balconies connect to the windows and the green curtains hang high. It looks like a place frequented by wealthy children. If you were born in poverty, you would not even take a look at this restaurant.
I don't even have the courage, let alone go in to drink and have fun.
Although the market is about to close now, you can still vaguely hear the sounds of people ordering drinks inside.
well!
Sighing, Xue Song took steps to enter the restaurant.
Regardless of whether my brothers can help or not, they are here and they must meet each other.
"My guest, please stay! We are already closed!"
However, as soon as Xue Song was about to enter the restaurant, he was feebly stopped by a boy dressed like a bartender.
"I know! I'm here to see Mr. Qin Fang, your shopkeeper!"
Xue Song was not surprised and bowed his hands.
"Looking for my husband? Who are you?"
The boy looked Xue Song up and down and asked curiously.
"Xue Song!"
Xue Song reported to leave home.
"Xue Song? Are you Uncle Xue? Please come in quickly, my husband has been waiting for you for many days!"
Upon hearing it,
The waiter was stunned at first and then overjoyed, and immediately made a gesture of invitation.
