The 143rd chapter was poached (2)

All of the people here are extremely smart people, and they understand something without saying it. Everyone can understand it as if they are wise. When they heard Li Xuanqing's words, they both looked a little embarrassed, but they didn't argue. Seeing Wei Hong coming in, they ignored Li Xuanqing and started talking to Wei Hong directly.

Manager Zhou stood up enthusiastically and grabbed Wei Hong's hand, smiled and said, "Young Master Wei, I have always heard that Mr. Wei is a talented man. I am really handsome and elegant when I see you today. It is hard to match the princes of the Tang Dynasty. It is hard to match the princes of the Tang Dynasty today. It is really a blessing to see Mr. Wei today."

Manager Yang was not willing to be outdone. He stood up and took Wei Hong's other hand, and smiled even more flatteringly: "Yes, Manager Zhou is right. With Mr. Wei's appearance and talent, he is no less than calling him the first son of the Tang Dynasty."

As soon as he came up, he was naked flattering. Wei Hong, who was used to flattering Comrade Li, was dizzy. This person liked to listen to good things, and Wei Hong was no exception. He was about to chat with the two shopkeepers, but when he saw that Li Xuanqing looked not very good-looking, Wei Hong quickly gave up his thoughts. He deliberately distanced himself from the two shopkeepers and said, "I don't know what you have to say when you come?"

Seeing that Wei Hong was deliberately unfamiliar with each other's relationship, the two knew that it was because of Li Xuanqing's presence. Manager Zhou's eyes turned and said, "Mr. Wei, in addition to having a heart to make friends with the young master, my master also yearned for the young master. Now he has set up a banquet in the Junyue Restaurant and is preparing to invite Mr. Wei. I also ask Mr. Wei to be sure to appreciate his face."

Li Xuanqing, who was sitting in the head, snorted: "Your master is a big deal. Junyue Restaurant is the best restaurant in the capital. It is just a little useless to invite Wei Hong alone."

Although these words were mocking Manager Zhou, Wei Hong felt that he had scolded him too! He was a marquis at least, and he was a man with official titles! Wei Hong curled his lips and said nothing.

Manager Zhou waved his hands repeatedly and said, "What is Boss Li saying? With Master Wei's talent, not to mention the mortal places like Junyue Restaurant, only the Jiuxiao Palace can be worthy of Master Wei." This flattery made Wei Hong feel ashamed. If he had Manager Zhou's flattery skills, he would not have to be slaughtered by Comrade Li.

Li Xuanqing didn't say anything. He wanted to be shameless and bark. Being able to flatter him is enough for the shopkeeper this week.

Manager Zhou took Wei Hong again and said with emotion: "Young Master Wei, can you please the face?"

Wei Hong wanted to go, after all, Wei Hong didn't know much about the two stores, Tianzi and Hongda, so it would be good to take this opportunity to understand the opponent's background. Just as Wei Hong was about to agree, Li Xuanqing stood up and walked slowly to Wei Hong's side. His face was not very good-looking, which made Wei Hong feel worried.

When he arrived at Wei Hong's side, Li Xuanqing actually grabbed Wei Hong's hand for the first time. This was the first time that Li Xuanqing had taken the initiative to have such an intimate contact with Wei Hong, which made Wei Hong have a lot of thoughts.

"Wei Hong is a person from our Hongyuan Business Company. He first came to the capital and was not familiar with the place. If there was no one to accompany him, the younger generation would be afraid of causing trouble. If Manager Zhou insisted on inviting Wei Hong, then the younger generation would have to accompany him. As Manager Zhou said, your master just wanted to make friends with Wei Hong, not by other ideas, and was not afraid of the younger generation having a meal, right?" After saying that, Li Xuanqing used force to imply Wei Hong that he would not refuse.

Wei Hong was confused. What luck did he have stepped on today? Not only countless literati and poets came to pursue him. Even Li Xuanqing, who has always been in his eyes and his nose, also regarded himself as a treasure. Could it be that he had contacted Comrade Li several times, and was contaminated with some royal aura, and the time came to work?

Just when Wei Hong was immersed in happiness and could not extricate himself, Manager Zhou coughed awkwardly: "Boss Li, you can go with him too, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. After all, my master said that he was first, and he invited Mr. Wei, not Mr. Li. If Boss Li came uninvited, wouldn't he be worth it?"

Li Xuanqing smiled indifferently: "It's okay, I'm just a woman, so why don't you talk about worth it? It's my biggest demand to be able to keep the people around you and not let outsiders covet it." This was said more explicitly, which made the atmosphere on the scene condense for a while.

In order to dispel the awkward atmosphere, Wei Hong smoothed out: "Not only the eldest lady is going, but even the Manager Yang is going with him. Today, we will take this opportunity to get to know each other well. I wonder what Manager Zhou is thinking?"

Upon hearing this, Manager Zhou looked embarrassed, but there was no better way at the moment. If Li Xuanqing insisted on not letting Wei Hong go, and if he couldn't invite Wei Hong, the master would not be able to explain. He had no choice but to respond and smiled and said, "Your Madam Wei is quick-witted, so he followed Mr. Wei."

On the way to Junyue Restaurant, Li Xuanqing's gaze never left Wei Hong. Seeing Wei Hong chatting with the two shopkeepers lively, Li Xuanqing's face was so ugly that it kept winking Wei Hong, but Wei Hong seemed to be invisible and ignored him. Li Xuanqing had no choice but to stamp his feet and follow Wei Hong obediently.

In fact, why didn’t Wei Hong know what the two shopkeepers mean? When Li Xuanqing said the words "Protect the people around you and prevent outsiders from coveting them", Wei Hong had already seen the purpose of the two shopkeepers' trip. The reason why he still agreed was that he wanted to know more about the two shopkeepers, and on the other hand, he wanted to take the opportunity to check whether these two shops had discovered the shortage of grey cloth.

Junyue Restaurant, the largest restaurant in the capital, is a typical northern restaurant, but it is proficient in Sichuan, Shandong, Huai and Guangdong. It is very famous in the capital. People who come here to consume are either rich or noble, with great officials in the court, and there are many top celebrities in the city. Even the lowest-ranking guests are gentry with some family background and ordinary ordinary people. Not to mention coming here to eat, even passing by the door, they have to step up their steps, for fear of being terrified by the restaurant's consumption level.

Wei Hong and others came to Junyue Restaurant. When the servants saw Manager Zhou, they immediately greeted everyone with a smile and greeted everyone on the second floor. Entering the room, Wei Hong found a person sitting inside. He was in his early forties, with a fat head and big ears, a full heavenly court, a square pavilion, and a rich face. He was obviously the owner of Manager Zhou and the head of the Tianzi Trading Company. (Go and read)
