It Starts With A Mountain

Chapter 69 Hotel Opening

Chapter 69

This is the morning of Fallen Leaf City, and the weather is fine.

Li Datou always gets up very early, the restaurant is busy, and he has to prepare the ingredients for the day very early.As the shopkeeper of Sihailou, he naturally has to lead by example.

In fact, Li Datou's background is not good, even if he has survived from a boy to the position of shopkeeper, he is always not so respectable.Later, he gave his younger sister to Su Sihai as a concubine. Everyone respected him on the surface, but what they said behind the scenes was not pleasant.

It wasn't until Su Sihai's original spouse died and his younger sister became the main wife that his status could be regarded as rising.

Now that Su Sihai is seriously ill again, his body is getting worse day by day, day by day, as long as Su Ying can be driven out of Fallen Leaf City, then the Su family's wealth will be surnamed Li in the future.

In the future, I can also pretend to be an outsider, sit with the nobles in the city, eat flowers and wine, and brag.

Things were going smoothly, Su Ying got a restaurant that was on the verge of bankruptcy, and seeing that there was no place for her in Fallen Leaf City.

But she didn't know where to raise a sum of money, and she even redecorated the restaurant, and it will reopen today.

open!Hmph, does a little girl know how to add water to wine, how to fill up with inferior wine, and how to deduct wages from workers!
"Xiao Er, go to the opposite side to borrow some stools, and say that our business is very good today, and there are not enough stools, so I will borrow a few from them first."

"Then I guess they won't lend it to us."

"It doesn't matter whether you borrow it or not, you just need to remember to say something." Li Datou paused: "Tell them, you don't have business anyway."

Gradually the sun rose to the middle, and it was lunch time. The business of Si Hai Lou these days was very good.The main reason is because of the chili pepper, which is the only one in the whole world. If the nobles in the city want to eat it, they can only come to their own shop.Taking this opportunity, Li Datou also made friends with a group of people with status, which made him feel happy all day long.

"Mr. Zhang, please come inside. I will be waiting for you early this morning."

A middle-aged man with a beard under his chin walked into the Four Seas Building with his friends, he waved his hand: "I want a private room, and I want to serve some of your special dishes. My friends from Waifu are just running after you." It’s from the Four Seas Building.”

After speaking, Zhang Yuanwai turned his head to his friend and said, "The peppers in Sihailou are one of a kind. Although you have traveled far and wide and experienced a lot, I guarantee that you have never tasted it."

"Ha, I've heard people bragging about it a long time ago. Is it true? Today, you have to listen to it and see it."

"Second floor please, I'll get the kitchen ready right away."

As the shopkeeper of a restaurant, he is always a little proud to hear customers say this.At this moment, Xiaoer at the side winked at him and pulled him to the back kitchen.

"What's going on, didn't you see that I'm busy!"

"Boss, there is something..."

"What's the matter, say it, don't hesitate!"

"The peppers are gone."

"What's gone!" Li Datou heard clearly, but still asked.

The peppers in Sihailou were originally brought back by Su Ying, and there were not many in total. They were used like gold, but they couldn't last long.

"Shopkeeper, please think of a way, many customers come here for the chili peppers."

Cold sweat had already flowed down Li Datou's neck, and he cursed viciously: "Little girl, what a cruel heart!"

Then, he hurried to Zhang Yuanwai's box.

"Why, big head, the food is ready, and I would like to ask you, the shopkeeper, to deliver it yourself."

"This... that, Mr. Zhang, the peppers in the store are all gone, do you want to change to another dish?"

"It's used up... Ha, I understand. I've heard that this pepper is the only one in Sihailou, so it's only sold to people with status, but look at me, can't you afford it?" , come up quickly, money is not a problem."

"To be honest with my grandpa, it's really gone!" Li Datou.

Zhang Yuanwai frowned, and his face was a bit embarrassed. The people who were invited to the banquet today were all veterans who came from far away, and they came here on purpose after hearing his bragging.But now that they came, they couldn't eat any food, which made him put his face there.

"Heh, you're doing great business at Sihailou!"

Zhang Yuanwai said indifferently, but it made Li Datou sweat profusely.He doesn't hate anyone in his heart now, only hates Su Ying, she must have already figured this out, first use the chili pepper to lift the Sihai Tower up, and when the chili pepper is used up, no matter how high it is lifted, it will be as bad as the fall.

What a cruel woman!

Zhang Yuanwai suddenly sniffled, and said with a smile on his face: "Ha, Li Datou, you are kidding me. Isn't this the smell of pepper? You still want to fool me."

Li Datou also sniffled, and there was indeed a smell of pepper floating in the private room.

"This smell is not from our shop?" Li Datou.

"Where would that come from?"

As he said that, Zhang Yuanwai stood up and walked slowly to the window. Suddenly he opened the window, and it was sunny outside. Under the sun, a red signboard on the opposite street was shining brightly.

That smell came from the restaurant opposite.

"Come on, brothers, let's go to the opposite side and have a look."

"Mr. Zhang, don't leave. I'll give you a taste of our specialty vinegar fish."

Li Datou chased Zhang Yuanwai out of the private room, and suddenly found that the guests were leaving one after another.Xiao Er is as busy as she is, but she can't keep the guests.

These people are all going to the opposite side, they are rushing to the peppers in Sihailou, since there is no one here, they naturally go to the opposite side.The other guests didn't really like chili peppers very much, but it was strange to say that human curiosity, seeing so many people there, naturally wanted to go and see the excitement.

In such a situation, Li Datou just watched the guests disappear, and he couldn't keep the guests even with all his might.

He could only watch these guests enter the opposite restaurant from the door. Liao Yi at the door was dressed in black, standing there like a black iron tower.

According to what Li Datou heard, they were called security guards.

"Go, go, if you don't enjoy eating, it's better if you smash your shop."

Not long after, Xiaodie came slowly from the opposite side and stood in front of Li Datou.Both of them worked in Su's house before and knew each other well.

"What are you doing!" Li Datou felt that the visitor was not kind.

"Borrow a few stools from you. Our business is so good that we don't have enough stools."

Li Datou took a deep breath, and the young man beside him lowered his head. These words were exactly what he said to the other side in the morning.

"I will never lend it to you!"

"If you don't borrow it, don't borrow it, why are you so loud." Xiaodie curled her lips: "Anyway, you don't have any business."

"Uh..." With a cold breath, Li Datou's eyes darkened, and he almost fell over. He also asked Xiaoer to say this in the morning.
