Wang Lin told Feng Yuheng: "The New Year is coming, and the owner of the small restaurant next to Baicaotang is going back to his hometown. He said that he doesn't want to return to the capital after the New Year. I just want to ask the owner for instructions. Let’s see if we can buy the restaurant and turn it into a herbal food shop.”
Feng Yuheng's eyes lit up, "Wang Lin, your idea is really good."
"Does the boss agree?"
Feng Yuheng said: "There is no problem in buying it, and the idea of opening a herbal diet shop is also a good one. But this shop cannot be opened on the spur of the moment. You have to come up with some mature ideas."
Wang Lin added: "That's what I think, because people who come to Baicaotang for medical treatment and medicine often ask for some prescriptions for medicinal meals, and some even take the prescriptions prescribed by the doctors nearby. There are many people coming and going to get medicine. If we could open our own herbal diet shop, right next to Baicaotang, wouldn't it be more convenient? Moreover, the medicinal diet we prepare is more reliable, so everyone can eat with confidence. In addition, The original cooks and waiters can also stay, and everything is ready-made."
Feng Yuheng thought for a while and said: "I've seen that restaurant before. It's not a big place, but it's enough for making medicinal meals. I suggest you only make porridge and nothing else. Don't make too much every day. , only open for half a day. Also, you have to consider those ladies and young ladies who want to recuperate but are inconvenient to eat out. Such people have a lot of money but their lives are at a premium."
Huang Quan was amused, "Miss, you can be considered a daughter of an official family."
Feng Yuheng pouted, "I can come out, can they? Wang Lin, I think otherwise, you can mix the medicinal diet with raw ingredients, sell it by the portion, and let the ladies buy it back and cook the porridge themselves, a small packet is enough It’s a meal and convenient to eat.”
Wang Lin nodded repeatedly, "To be honest with my boss, the manager of the restaurant told me privately that he hopes we can take over the shop so that he can save himself the trouble of talking to other people."
"Okay, you go ahead and do it. I still say the same thing, you have to pay more attention to cultivating people, just like the Baicaotang opened in Xiaozhou last time, maybe it will be opened in other places. I will ask you for someone anytime, anywhere."
Wang Lindao: "Don't worry, boss, I have some people under me, not to mention the shopkeeper, even the assistants can draw them."
Feng Yuheng is very satisfied with Wang Lin. This man is not only loyal, but also smart. He only thinks about Baicaotang, which saves her a lot of thoughts.
She stayed in Baicaotang for half a day, and did not leave with Huang Quan until noon. The two found a restaurant and were about to eat something outside. As soon as the waiter brought the food, they saw a five or six-year-old child squatting at the door, looking longingly at the two chicken drumsticks on their table and swallowing. .
Feng Yuheng couldn't see this the most, so she asked the shopkeeper for a piece of oil paper, wrapped a chicken leg and handed it to Huang Quan: "Take it to the kid to eat."
Huang Quan nodded, thought for a while, poured the rice in his bowl onto the oil paper, and sent it to the child together.
But the child didn't eat. He just wrapped the paper and put it in his arms, and then started squatting on the spot and looking at other tables.
Unfortunately, no kind person was willing to give her anything, and the child's eyes showed disappointment.
Feng Yuheng said to Huang Quan: "Guess, why doesn't the child eat by himself and has to be put away?"
Huang Quan thought for a while and said: "It should be left to others. Maybe her family is living on the streets like her, and she wants to ask for more food to take back and eat together."
"But she is not a beggar." Feng Yuheng pointed at the child and said: "Although her clothes are shabby, they are only shabby and old, not dirty. Look at the clothes, the color is indeed faded It’s not good, but it’s obviously been washed many times. Think about the faces and hair of those beggars on the street, and then look at this girl’s face and hair. Where is the dirt?”
Only then did Huang Quan notice these details and think about it again, "The lady is right. If it was a dirty and smelly beggar, the waiter would have chased her away. How could she be allowed to squat at the door for so long."
Feng Yuheng waved the waiter over and said to her: "Bring me five more chicken legs, and add a few more plates of your delicious dishes."
The waiter suddenly asked, "How much can you two eat?"
Huang Quan slapped the table - "You can go if you are told. If you can't finish eating, we will take it away! We think the food in your store is delicious, so we order more."
The waiter hurriedly laughed with them, thanked them for enjoying the food in the restaurant, and hurriedly went to give instructions to the chef.
I heard Huang Quan shout again: "Bring me another bowl of rice!"
"Good luck!"
Feng Yuheng told Huang Quan: "Let's eat the chicken legs first. Let's eat quickly. After eating, follow me to a place."
The waiter quickly brought Huang Quan’s rice, and the two of them began to eat. After the newly cooked dishes were served, they all finished eating.
Huang Quan directly ordered the waiter to pack the food, and Feng Yuheng ordered a lot of rice to be packed together.
The waiter was confused. When did the food in their store become so popular? Seeing that the handsome young man even liked rice, he filled a whole pot directly.
Feng Yuheng saw his doubts and didn't bother to explain. She just threw a piece of silver over and successfully silenced the waiter.
The two of them went out and got into the carriage with the packed meals. It was not until the carriage passed a street that Feng Yuheng asked the carriage driver to stop, and then said to Huang Quan: "Go back and bring the little girl to the carriage. Come up."
Huang Quan knew what she was thinking, so he quickly got out of the car and walked back quickly.
In a short time, the poor child squatting at the entrance of the restaurant was taken into the carriage.
The little girl was a little scared. She looked at Feng Yuheng and Huang Quan and didn't know what to say. After thinking about it, she knelt down and kowtowed to them, and then timidly said: "Thank you two benefactors for the chicken legs and Rice." As he spoke, he inhaled through his nose, and the aroma of the food in the carriage came, making the little girl so greedy that she almost drooled.
Huang Quan smiled and touched her head, "What's your name?"
The little girl replied: "My name is Shuiling."
"Shui Ling." Feng Yuheng tilted her head and asked her, "Do you squat at the door of the restaurant every day waiting for people to give you food?"
Shui Ling nodded: "Yes."
Huang Quan didn't understand, "Why don't you take the initiative to ask for it?"
Shui Ling said: "That way I would become a beggar, but Shui Ling doesn't want to be a beggar."
"Why?" Feng Yuheng was also a little surprised, "What's the difference between you waiting for someone to give you something and asking for it yourself?"
Shui Ling added: "There is a difference. If someone takes the initiative to give it, it will not be counted as what I asked for, and I will not be counted as a beggar. In this street, beggars are also managed, and they cannot eat what they ask for. It cannot be taken to other people, it must be brought to a unified place and handed over to the people above for distribution."
Feng Yuheng understands, this is a beggar gang.
"Then who are you taking your things back to?" she asked again.
"To a lot of people." Shui Ling lowered his head and choked with sobs: "Where we live there are many children without parents like me, and two sisters are taking care of us. In the past, someone gave us food, but later We stopped giving them away. We were hungry, so we came out and waited for others to give us."
Feng Yuheng's mind moved, and this seemed to be the result she wanted. So he said to the child: "Take me to where you live. These meals I packed are just for you."
"Really?" Shui Ling opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe it.
Feng Yuheng nodded, "Really, go tell the driver the address and we'll go now."
If you guessed correctly, the place where this child is located should be something similar to an orphanage. Feng Yuheng also had a sudden idea while eating in a restaurant. If she could help an orphanage, she could After cultivating these children, she needs manpower to practice medicine, and the intelligence network also needs manpower. In this era of underdeveloped information and transportation, people are really important.
The carriage drove for half an hour and finally stopped in front of a courtyard in the north of the city.
This courtyard is neither new nor old. It is very large and should have been left behind by a wealthy family.
Shui Ling took Huang Quan's hand and said, "This is it, brothers and sisters, please come in quickly."
Feng Yuheng was dressed in men's clothing, so he was naturally called brother. She didn't even explain, and followed Shui Ling into the courtyard. The coachman behind him was also busy picking up all the food in the carriage and delivering it in two trips.
When Feng Yuheng entered, there were several children in the yard who were about the same age as Shui Ling, holding a water basin and washing clothes, while two older girls put them on the high rope one by one.
The two girls looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. They were not pretty, but they could be called delicate. Their clothes were old and faded, but they were also clean.
It is cold in winter, and the hands of the children washing clothes are red from the cold. They have to stop and rub them after washing. Some even have frostbite, but they endure the pain and continue to stretch into the water.
When Shui Ling came back, the children in the courtyard first looked at her with hope, and then they found a young man and a young lady following her, and they couldn't help but froze.
The girl who was hanging clothes felt something strange in the atmosphere, and quickly walked around to the front to take a look. She was a little surprised at first glance, and asked blankly: "You two are here, are you busy?"
Feng Yuheng smiled and took a step forward, "This girl, you are polite." She bowed her hands and looked like a handsome young man, prompting the girl to quickly bend down and return the salute. Come. I heard her say again: "We met Shui Ling when we were eating in the restaurant. After hearing her talk about your situation, we packed some food and came back. I don't know how many people there are here and whether there is enough to eat."
As soon as they heard that there was food, the children's eyes lit up, and people ran out from all directions in the yard one after another. Feng Yuheng took a quick look and saw that there were at least nearly thirty people.
"It seems it's really not enough." She smiled bitterly, took out two ingots of silver from her sleeves and handed them to the coachman, "You go find a nearby restaurant and ask them to make some food and bring it here, just do it. It would be better if we could bring out the evening meal as well."
The coachman nodded, said nothing, and left in a hurry.
Shui Ling jumped up happily and pulled two older girls to introduce her: "This is Sister Fusang, and this is Sister Tiandong. We usually rely on the two sisters to take care of us. This... ..." She wanted to introduce Feng Yuheng to Fusang and Tiandong, but found that she had no idea who Feng Yuheng was.
Huang Quan took the initiative and said, "This is my young master, Le Wuyou, the doctor at Baicao Hall. I am her maid, and my name is Huang Quan."
Feng Yuheng was very satisfied with this introduction.
The reputation of Baicaotang was so great that Fusang and Tiandong became happy when they heard that he was the doctor of Baicaotang. They saluted Feng Yuheng repeatedly and heard Fusang say: "I have long admired the name of Mr. Wuyou. Mr. It is our blessing to be here today, and to spend money to prepare meals for the children, this is really..."
“It’s so good!” Some children shouted, and they all came forward to surround Feng Yuheng.
But before Feng Yuheng could say a few words to the children, the coachman who had just left to buy food came back again, with a worried look on his face: "Master, a group of officers and soldiers are coming outside!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the door of the courtyard being knocked open from the outside, and a group of officers and soldiers immediately rushed in!
