Chapter 198 Bet
The proprietress in the red dress is named Hua Sheng. She has opened a restaurant in the capital for ten years, and the signboard at the door is already worn out. Even if you squint your eyes, you can't see what is written on the signboard of the restaurant.

These years have been ups and downs, I haven't made much money, and I have seen a lot of outrageous things.

For example, this lovely girl in front of her opened her mouth to buy a shop in the capital.

Land is expensive in the capital, not to mention a restaurant, even a half-sized front workshop costs several thousand taels of silver, and a restaurant as big as my own needs even more.

Hua Sheng looked up and down Shen Xian's clothes, she didn't look like a lady from a wealthy family, why did she speak so richly.

Niu Yu gritted her teeth and wiped away her tears, holding back all the grievances in her heart, and shook her head vigorously.

"Sister Shen, you have helped me a lot. How can I always let you spend money? If it doesn't work, I can continue to set up a stall and just fight for another two months."

Seeing that she was so stubborn, Shen Xian was about to speak to persuade her again, but Hua Sheng interrupted her.

"I'm talking about the two girls, not to mention that you are not allowed to set up stalls casually in the capital, I'm really curious, what kind of business do you guys do, and you can earn 1000 taels in a month or two?"

At this moment, Hua Sheng was 1 in disbelief, feeling that Shen Xian and Niu Yu were talking big, trying to expose them.

Shen Xian smiled lightly when he heard the words, and said in an apologetic tone: "I've already caused you trouble today, it's useless to talk, we'll leave now."

Saying that, Shen Xianbian took Niu Yu's hand and walked out.

Seeing that Shen Xian avoided talking about it, Hua Sheng felt that Shen Xian was bragging even more, and then said: "As long as the two girls can prove that your business can earn 1000 taels in a month or two, I can rent the shop to you at a low price. you."

Shen Xian paused slightly when he heard this, and thought to himself, is this another trick?
"Boss, what do you mean?"

Hua Sheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's nothing interesting, I just think you're bragging."

Niu Yu was flustered and aggrieved at first, but now that he was being questioned again, he became even more angry
"Then we can agree, if the things I make sell very well, you can rent this shop to me, and the price must be fair."

Hua Sheng nodded without hesitation and said, "Yes, anyway, I don't have much business in this restaurant, and I haven't made any money after working in it for several years, so I just rent it if I rent it."

Upon hearing this, Niu Yu geared up, but this time she learned to be smart, and kept looking at Shen Xian, waiting for Shen Xian's opinion.

Shen Xian turned his brain and thought for a while, this shopkeeper has a land deed, his identity is undoubtedly confirmed, if the other party is really willing to bet, there is no loss in trying, maybe it can gain a wave of popularity in advance.

"can."

With Shen Xian's approval, Niu Yu quickly looked at Hua Sheng and asked, "Miss Boss, do you have any fresh ingredients here?"

When Hua Sheng heard that she was going to cook food, she felt even more disbelief, how much a piece of food can sell for, these two people are indeed talking big.

Raising his thumb, Hua Sheng pointed in the direction of the kitchen.

"The vegetables are all fresh. The vegetable farmers and butchers just delivered them in the morning. You can use them."

Hearing this, Niu Yu rolled up his sleeves and went straight into the back kitchen, and Niu Lei followed behind.

The shop assistants wanted to follow in to see what dishes they were cooking, but Niu Lei blocked them out. The secret recipe of barbecue is not so easy to show to others.

It is no longer necessary for Shen Xian to do things like barbecue, she found a bright place and sat down, and then put a piece of broken silver on the table.

"Please bring me a pot of tea, and the extra money will be used to compensate for the loss of your ingredients."

With Shen Xian being so particular about things, Hua Sheng murmured in his heart, is she just pretending, or is she really capable?

Hua Sheng sat beside Shen Xian step by step, and put the silver into his sleeve.

"I said girl, can you really make that much money?"

Shen Xian dragged her cheek with one hand, and took a look at Hua Sheng. The lady boss's skin is not delicate, and her hands are rough, she looks like someone who often works by herself.

His face was also kind, he didn't look like a bad person, his first impression was good, so Shen Xian was willing to say a few more words with her.

"That's natural, otherwise who would dare to come to this capital to do business."

Seeing Shen Xian's answer so determinedly, Hua Sheng felt a little regretful in his heart, if Niu Yu really proved successful, would he really want to rent his shop?

Although Hua Sheng felt that the restaurant was not making money, but it had been open for so many years and had feelings for it, so it was a little bit reluctant to just let it go.

While Hua Sheng was struggling, a burst of wonderful fragrance came out from the back kitchen, and Hua Sheng's saliva surged, and he couldn't help rolling down his throat.

"It smells so good!" the waiter exclaimed in surprise, wanting to go to the back kitchen to have a look like grass growing in his heart.

A look of amazement appeared in Hua Sheng's eyes. Although he didn't know what those two were doing, but with this fragrance alone, the taste of the things they made would not be bad.

Thinking of this, Hua Sheng felt both regret and envy. If he had this culinary skill, how could he have opened a restaurant for ten years so unknown.

Shen Xian put down the teacup, and when he heard footsteps coming from the door, he looked up.

It is said that the smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, and this barbecue is also true. Not long after the smell came out, a guest came in and looked around.

The merchant wearing a silk cloth stepped over the threshold and asked hesitantly, "Is this fragrance coming from your shop?"

When Hua Sheng saw a guest coming, he quickly stood up to entertain him.

"Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"

The businessman who came in was about forty years old, with a slightly fat body and a kind face. He cheerfully found a seat and sat down.

"I've been traveling here and there for more than [-] years, and it's the first time I've asked for such an appetizing fragrance. Please serve me the things made by your back kitchen."

When Hua Sheng heard it, her expression was complicated, she thought about it, but this food was not made by herself.

When she was hesitating, Shen Xian immediately said: "Guest officer, wait a moment."

Standing up slowly, Shen Xian went straight into the back kitchen, put a few skewers that Niu Yu had baked on a plate and brought them out.

The grilled skewers were placed in front of them, and the aroma became more intense, and the buddies in Huasheng's shop were almost drooling looking at it.

The diners watched the charcoal-grilled mutton skewers sizzling with oil, showing amazing expressions, and grabbed the skewers to eat.

After savoring it carefully, the diners were amazed again and again.

"Okay! Delicious! The outside is charred and the inside is tender, neither fat nor greasy, it's really delicious! Give me another twenty skewers!"

Shen Xian smiled lightly when he heard the words, and reminded: "Guest officer, the price of this barbecue is not cheap, I have to make it clear to you in advance, lest you say we are killing customers."

The diner is a businessman by nature, and his family is very wealthy, so he asked casually, "What is the price of this barbecue?"

Shen Xian glanced at Hua Sheng, raised the corner of his mouth and said: "Five Wen for vegetarian, ten Wen for meat."
