I taught cooking all afternoon.
Dusk.
A servant came from the Lu family.
One hundred coins were sent.
Zhao Hao was very happy to see the money.
I ate two more bowls for dinner.
the next morning.
He continued to lead Lao Zhong and others to sell tofu.
In recent days, tofu has become more and more famous and has spread to every corner of Imperial Capital.
The scale has also stabilized, with three dollars being collected steadily every day.
In addition to the 100 guan sent by Lu Huairen, he now has 120 guan in hand.
No matter which store in Dongcheng Princess Yongning negotiated for him, the rent plus decoration would be enough.
I don’t know if Princess Yongning is reliable.
Don’t make yourself wait too long!
After selling the tofu, he was walking home when he saw the maid Xiao Tao from yesterday. Zhao Hao was immediately happy.
"Sister Xiaotao, did the princess ask you to come here to find me?"
Although Zhao Hao is tall and powerful, he is only seventeen years old, just like Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao said quickly: "Master Zhao, please don't call me that, Xiao Tao can't bear it."
Zhao Hao smiled and said: "I am seventeen years old, so I think it is right to call me sister."
Xiao Tao's face turned red with embarrassment: "Young Master should be older, Xiao Tao is just sixteen this year."
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Okay, it turns out it's sister Xiaotao."
Xiao Tao said in fear: "Sir, you'd better call me Xiao Tao."
Zhao Hao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, sister Xiaotao, don't worry about it."
Xiao Tao didn't want to get entangled with him on this topic, so she quickly said: "Sir, the princess is still waiting, let's go over quickly."
Zhao Hao and Xiao Tao got on the carriage, and the carriage slowly headed towards Dongcheng.
It’s still the same teahouse, still the same private room.
Today, Princess Yongning wore a long aqua dress with gauze covering her face.
The face is looming under the gauze, adding a sense of mystery.
Zhao Hao came in and still bowed respectfully to the other party.
"Zhao Hao has met Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Princess Yongning's face no longer had the indifference and disgust she had yesterday, and her eyes were even a little erratic and evasive.
"No need to be polite, sit down and talk."
Zhao Hao is not so casual.
He knew it.
Her Royal Highness, the impression of him has slightly changed just because of yesterday's poem.
But this change is still very fragile, and it is by no means the time to make random mistakes.
He said respectfully: "Her Royal Highness is in front of you. Zhao Hao should still stand and answer."
Princess Yongning didn't say anything, but it could be seen in her eyes that she was quite satisfied with Zhao Hao's performance.
"Zhao Hao, I heard that you are looking for a shop to open a restaurant?"
Yesterday, he took Lao Zhong around the entire Dongcheng. Princess Yongning wanted to know, which was naturally quite easy.
Zhao Hao nodded: "Yes, I have been preparing for this recently, but I just haven't found a suitable store."
Princess Yongning asked softly: "Why do you have such an idea? Does Mr. Neishi agree?"
Although the Zhao family does not have a deep foundation, Zhao Wenxiang is the internal historian after all and is a real important official of the dynasty.
With this kind of family status, the family attaches great importance to reputation and is extremely averse to doing business.
Although Zhao Hao had always been arrogant and domineering in the past and had a very bad reputation, this was just because of his shortcomings.
Even if others say it, they will only comment a few words and not criticize too much.
But once you go into business, it's completely different.
Doing business is truly a low-class, despicable profession, and its status is inferior to that of a woman in a hook-and-loop boat.
He is the only son of the Zhao family. Once he does this, it will be a blow to the reputation of the entire Zhao family.
Zhao Hao cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I haven't discussed this matter with my family yet, but I am confident to convince them."
Princess Yongning said: "Since we haven't discussed it yet, I think it's better for you to put this idea aside."
Zhao Hao was suddenly puzzled: "May I ask Your Highness, why is this?"
Princess Yongning said: "You have not discussed it with Mr. Zhao. If I help you find a shop now, it will inevitably cause Mr. Zhao to complain."
Zhao Hao's eyes moved. Could it be that this little girl didn't want to help?
At this time, Princess Yongning continued: "This is only one of the reasons. The second is that you have extraordinary talents. I believe that becoming an official in the court is the right way."
Oh, that’s what happened.
Zhao Hao smiled slightly: "Your Highness, you don't know. I have no ambition to be an official, and I don't have much ambition to make progress. I just want to be safe and live a happy life, which is my greatest wish."
"So becoming an official in the court is not suitable for me. Opening a restaurant to earn money to support my family is the most suitable."
When Princess Yongning heard this, she was immediately surprised. Her beautiful eyes flashed and she said, "How could you have such an idea at such a young age?"
People of this age should be full of longing for the future, strive for the top, pursue fame and fortune, and be a good person.
But Zhao Hao didn't even want to become an official in the court. He just wanted to live a peaceful life without illness or disaster.
It's incredible.
Zhao Hao cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, if you can, please help me."
Princess Yongning sighed, obviously disappointed.
"Zhao Hao, you may not know that it is difficult to make money by opening a restaurant."
"Yesterday, you and your people here generally saw that none of those restaurants had much business, and most of them had difficulty even maintaining their capital."
Zhao Hao didn't care.
"Your Highness, the restaurant I want to open is different from others. It will definitely make money. Therefore, I would like to ask Your Highness to fulfill your promise yesterday and help me find a suitable restaurant."
Seeing that Zhao Hao had no choice but to open this restaurant, Princess Yongning's temper got worse again, making her teeth itch with anger.
"How come you...are so ignorant? How can I tell lies and deceive you?"
"Your Highness has misunderstood. I am well aware of His Highness's good intentions. However, I am extremely confident about opening a restaurant and have already thought about Zhou Xiang, so I hope that His Highness will make it happen."
Princess Yongning glared at him angrily.
"Hmph, I don't want to meddle in your business. Since you don't know the heart of a good person and insist on opening a restaurant, I keep my word."
"Xiao Tao, go get the pen, ink and paper and write the deed immediately."
Xiaotao agreed and hurried out.
Zhao Hao was immediately surprised and said: "Has His Highness already found a shop?"
Princess Yongning said with a cold face: "I rented this teahouse to you, is it not enough?"
Zhao Hao's eyes widened instantly: "What?"
He couldn't help but be surprised, because this teahouse was so good.
There are four floors in total and the area is sufficient.
The location is excellent.
Located in the middle of the entire east city, near the main intersection, it couldn't be better.
I don’t know what idiot actually opened a shabby teahouse here.
I'm afraid I'll lose all my underwear.
Princess Yongning said: "This teahouse is my property, but it has been losing money. Since you want to find a shop, I will rent it to you."
Zhao Hao: "..."
Just pretend I didn't say it?
