Chapter 179 Mei Gongming
Liu Yaoyao rubbed her eyes that were full of curiosity and surprise.
This guy in front of me, who was as thin as a monkey and dressed in rags, unexpectedly became the richest man in Ling State a few years later.
It’s still Liu Jingshu, the heroine of the original book, the secret weapon behind the huge wealth.
What a plot twist!
Why is this person in Yun Country now?
Liu Yaoyao thought so and asked.
Mei Gongming laughed at himself.
His origins were no secret.
He said lightly: "In fact, my roots are in Yun Country. I am the grandson of Yun Country's royal merchant Mei Jinqing."
Oh?
Royal merchant?
Isn’t that the merchant employed by the royal family?
Tsk tsk, no wonder!
When I was a child, I had a lot of money and could play with rich boys; when my family fell into poverty, it was natural for me to be bullied.
Praise the high and criticize the low.
Such is human nature.
Since he was originally from Yun State, how did he become the richest man in Ling State?
Liu Yaoyao couldn't figure it out, so she put it out of her mind.
Never mind, it hasn't happened yet anyway.
Now that I've met her, I don't think it will happen.
She was worried that there was no one to help manage the restaurant, and then God sent her a top talent.
She was the one who stole the original heroine's possession.
Hahaha.
This feeling is so damn good!
Liu Yaoyao patted Mei Gongming on the shoulder and said with great pride.
"Since you are the descendant of an imperial merchant, you must know how to do business. Why don't you just stay in my restaurant and help me? I'm worried that there's no one to manage it!"
When Mei Gongming heard this, his eyes instantly widened like bells and a smile brighter than the sun bloomed on his face.
"Miss Liu, are you really going to take me in?"
This is pie in the sky!
Liu Yaoyao raised her eyebrows proudly and smiled like a little fox who had just stolen a chicken, with a cunning look on her face.
"Of course it's true! But I have to give you a heads up first. This is not a nursing home. You have to work hard for me!"
Mei Gongming nodded quickly, with a hint of shyness on his face.
"But when my family fell into poverty, I was still young, and I... I had never done business before, let alone managed a restaurant."
Liu Yaoyao waved her hand with a look of disdain on her face.
"What are you afraid of?
We are not building rockets, and no one is born with the ability to do so.
Besides, your family was so rich when you were a child, so you must have seen a lot of the world. This is much better than those young men who can only talk about war on paper.
As long as you are willing to learn, I guarantee that you will be able to manage the restaurant in an orderly manner within three months!"
When Mei Gongming heard this, his confidence suddenly increased and his back straightened a little.
"Really? Then I will definitely study hard!"
Liu Yaoyao nodded with satisfaction and patted Mei Gongming on the shoulder.
"That's right! My restaurant has just been renovated and will be open for business in three days.
How about it, do you want to go with me to have a look?"
Mei Gongming nodded quickly: "Of course I do!"
The two of them set off as soon as they said they would. Along the way, Mei Gongming kept asking questions and was full of curiosity about Liu Yaoyao's restaurant.
Liu Yaoyao patiently answered his questions and made a few jokes from time to time, which made Mei Gongming laugh.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Mei Gongming was stunned by the scene before him.
The restaurant was decorated magnificently and looked very grand.
He couldn't help but sigh: "Miss Liu, your restaurant is so luxurious! I didn't even dare to think about it before!"
Liu Yaoyao smiled proudly and said, "Of course! I am going to build the number one restaurant in Yun Country! If you follow me and work hard, I guarantee you will have good food and good drinks!"
Mei Gongming nodded repeatedly, his heart full of expectations and longings for the future.
"Hey, Mei Gongming, you look like you just graduated from the Beggars' Sect."
Liu Yaoyao deliberately teased while looking at Mei Gongming's tattered clothes.
In fact, she had already guessed in her heart that Mei Gongming probably didn't even have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
However, since she decided to take him in, she naturally had to consider him carefully.
"So... where do you live now?"
Liu Yaoyao changed the subject and showed some concern on her face.
Mei Gongming scratched his head awkwardly and spoke hesitantly.
"I... my stepmother kicked me out after my father left home. I usually just lie down in a sheltered spot on the street..."
Liu Yaoyao felt a surge of sympathy.
"Oh my god, you're going to perform a real-life version of 'The Tramp's Song'! No, no, I have to buy you some clothes and find you a place to live."
Liu Yaoyao did what she said and took Mei Gongming to the largest clothing store in the city.
Along the way, she did not forget to tease Mei Gongming: "Look at you, this outfit is almost an antique, you need to change into a new one quickly, otherwise people will think you crawled out of an ancient tomb!"
Mei Gongming was at a loss for words because of what Liu Yaoyao said, but he felt warm in his heart.
It's not appropriate for him to manage the restaurant like this. He really should buy some new equipment.
When they arrived at the clothing store, Liu Yaoyao picked out a few clothes of good quality and novel styles and threw them directly to Mei Gongming.
"Try these on and see if they fit."
Mei Gongming picked up the clothes, feeling a little helpless: "This... How can I be so embarrassed?"
"Oh, stop being so fussy and try it now!"
Mei Gongming had no choice but to try on the clothes.
Unexpectedly, these clothes fit him perfectly, as if they were tailor-made for him.
Liu Yaoyao couldn't stop smiling as she saw Mei Gongming look brand new.
"Well, not bad, not bad, he has transformed from the leader of the Beggars' Sect into a handsome young man!
The ancients were right. It is true that clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse! "
She continued to choose while joking.
"Mr. Mei, you must keep your clothes in good condition. Don't let me see you lying down in the street in a sheltered place again!"
Mei Gongming felt a little embarrassed, but he felt warm in his heart.
Seeing that Liu Yaoyao was still choosing, he quickly went forward and grabbed her.
“Miss Liu, two sets of clothes are enough.
You should deduct this money from my wages. I can’t take your benefits for nothing.”
Liu Yaoyao deliberately put on a stern face.
"Hey, Mr. Mei, are you looking down on me, Liu Yaoyao?
I bought you clothes not to ask you to pay me back.
Since you have decided to work in my restaurant, you are mine. How can I watch my employees wearing tattered clothes?"
She paused, then added: “Besides, this is not a charity, you have to work hard for me and repay these clothes with your strength.
If you dare to be lazy, I will deduct your wages!"
When Mei Gongming heard this, he burst into tears of gratitude: "Miss Liu, I...I will definitely work hard and never let you down!"
Liu Yaoyao nodded with satisfaction and picked out two more sets of clothes and handed them to Mei Gongming.
“Then get two more sets, so you can have more styles.
But remember, these are all loaned to you, you have to take good care of them and don’t damage them.”
Mei Gongming took the clothes, his heart filled with gratitude.
This time he really met a kind person.
Liu Yaoyao took Mei Gongming to the inn again and booked a room for him.
"You stay here first. When the restaurant opens, I will arrange a better place for you."
Mei Gongming burst into tears of gratitude: "Miss Liu, you are really my great benefactor! I...I don't know how to repay you."
Liu Yaoyao waved her hand and said, "There's no need to repay me. Just work hard in the future and don't let me down."
After settling Mei Gongming down, Liu Yaoyao left. She had to quickly hire a chef.
