It turned out that Wang Ximeng got together with people from the original Song family and opened a restaurant in Gaoyang County, where some of the dishes were incompatible with food.
Of course, if you open a restaurant, there is no rule that only your family can sell this dish, and no one else can sell it.
But what is disgusting is that they just copied the dishes without changing the names. This is deliberately disgusting.
Wang Ximeng is also smart. The food in their restaurant is obviously not as good as Food for the Sky, so together with the Song family, they only opened it in some counties and did not open it to prefectures.
The restaurants of Song Yi's family were basically for VIPs, so they didn't notice their disgusting behavior at first. It wasn't until they opened a restaurant in Gaoyang County that they realized how unnecessary the original clan members were. Face.
"This Wang Ximeng hasn't given up yet?"
Song Yi mentioned them in his letter, so naturally he couldn't just complain to Xie Rongzhao in the letter.
Song Yi now has a rich family, so he naturally won't go out of his way to embarrass some small merchants, but he can't make people disgusted for nothing.
So he directly asked someone to bring a message to the Song family. If the name of the menu was not changed within three days, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
The old patriarch of the Song family is also afraid, knowing that the Song Yi now is no longer the Song Yi a few years ago.
Nowadays, Song Yi's financial resources are among the top in the whole city.
They didn't dare to go head-on, but they felt they couldn't be so obedient, so they just changed the menus in restaurants in Gaoyang County.
They thought Song Yi couldn't see him, so he wouldn't bother them.
I just didn't expect that after three days, something happened to the restaurants in other counties of the Song family.
Restaurants opened in other counties cannot all be owned by the Song family. This is an unwritten rule. They must find a local powerful family to cooperate.
As a result, nothing happened to the restaurants in Gaoyang County, but things happened to the restaurants in other counties. For several days in a row, a group of beggars went to the restaurant to eat. It was not enough not to receive them, and they did not say not to pay!
Just like that, within a few days, the reputation of the shops they opened in other counties had become bad, and no one who wanted to be decent would be willing to eat in their restaurants anymore.
In this way, if the business cannot be done, several parties will start to argue.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't defeat a local snake, not to mention those Song family members are not strong dragons either!
After all this hard work, after half a year, although they made some money, the shops opened in other counties were owned by other people. At most, they could get back the previous costs, but the recipes for some of the dishes in this restaurant It can be considered completely exposed.
Xie Rongzhao shook his head repeatedly. This Wang Ximeng is very ambitious, but when doing business, you still have to be discerning.
Song Yi originally encouraged Mr. Song to split his clan, wasn't it because he looked down on the short-sightedness and endless blood-sucking of those clansmen.
The letter also mentioned that Wang Ximeng will get married to Zhao Jiajun this autumn.
This is a good thing.
They get married, and Wang Ximeng will become the wife of the Zhao family in the future. Will she no longer be able to show her face in front of others?
Xie Rongzhao thought about how Wang Ximeng bribed Xie Ronglan and others in order to get her bracelet, and she knew that Wang Ximeng was not a law-abiding person.
Without her own bracelet in this life, and without her father and brother Jingzhou paving the way for them, she wanted to see how far Zhao Jiajun could go!
After Emperor Jingwen discussed it with several ministers, he only asked Xie Xiuwen to stay and speak.
"I heard that your eldest son won the imperial examination this year?"
"Back to the Saint, I did pass the exam, but my ranking is not good. I probably won't be able to pass the exam next year, so I still want to study hard for a few more years."
Emperor Jingwen nodded: "It's true that you are not in a hurry. But I found that you are very good at teaching students."
Xie Xiuwen quickly humbled himself and said, "I don't dare! I can't teach you much about the things in Wei Chen's mind."
Emperor Jingwen laughed: "You don't have to be so self-effacing. Nowadays, border trade is going very smoothly, and the yamen and border officers are getting along well. The treasury has been abundant in the past two years, and it all depends on Ai Qing."
I dare not admit this!
Xie Xiuwen lowered his head and said, "Thanks to the Holy Master Mingjian and the joint efforts of the Hubu, Honglu Temple and border officers, today is possible. The ministers are just helping the Holy Master to run errands and do not dare to take credit."
Emperor Jingwen was in a good mood and ordered him to accompany him for a walk.
"Ai Qing has met all the princes under my knees. I am interested in hiring another gentleman for these princes. I wonder if Ai Qing can be recommended?"
"Going back to the Holy Spirit, if it's just teaching, I think Master Wang Qinshan can do it."
Emperor Jingwen nodded, but did not express his position clearly.
Xie Xiuwen also knew full well what His Majesty meant, so he did not dare to speak easily.
"Thank you Aiqing, which prince do you think is more fond of me?"
This is a gift!
Xie Xiuwen stooped lower and said, "Back to Your Majesty, I am not familiar with several princes. I have met them occasionally, but I can't say a few words. I really don't dare to lie."
Emperor Jingwen didn't know what he was thinking of, so he snorted coldly: "You should be cautious!"
Xie Xiuwen felt at ease in his heart: "Back to Your Majesty, I have been favored by Your Majesty since I entered the court. I will definitely do my best for Your Majesty in this life. Now there are constant voices in support of several princes in the court. I think that, Your Majesty, You are in your prime, so there is no need to worry too much about this matter. If your Majesty wishes to take the exam, that is not a bad idea."
These words touched Emperor Jingwen's heart.
In recent days, ministers often suggested that he should establish a prince as soon as possible.
Emperor Jingwen was actually reluctant.
His eldest son is now in his early twenties and is also a father, but his talent is mediocre and he is not optimistic about it. The other sons were either too smart or too protective to reveal themselves, which made him feel depressed.
"The eldest prince and the second prince have already entered the court to gain experience. Xie Aiqing, I plan to let Xiao Wu go to your staff to gain experience. What do you think?"
"Back to the Holy Emperor, it is a humble minister's honor to be able to share His Majesty's worries. The fifth prince is extremely intelligent, so there is no problem in entering the court and gaining experience. However, he is still young after all. What about studying?"
"Well, I have kept you here just for this reason. I want you to give lectures at the Chongwen Hall. It just so happens that several princes have reached their age."
Xie Xiuwen was slightly startled, Chongwen Hall was the place where the prince was trained!
As far as the Royal Academy is concerned, the Chongwen Hall is the highest institution of learning. After the princes or royal relatives come out of the Hongwen Hall, they will either be sent on errands or enter the Chongwen Hall to study.
Generally speaking, the candidate for the crown prince must have studied in Chongwen Hall.
In other words, the eldest prince has already received his official errand, and it is impossible for him to return to Chongwen Hall to study. Therefore, he has no chance of becoming a great person.
