The little man is born to make money

Xie Jinyu originally wanted to see what the very hard-to-catch fish that Qi Lin said looked like, so he moved to the outside of the bamboo raft.Who knows that this bamboo raft is light on all sides and unstable at the center. If one end weighs more than the other places, it will lose its balance instantly and fall into the river.

Xie Jinyu panicked, before closing her eyes, she saw only a white figure rushing to protect him in her arms.

boom--

The water splashed and the two fell into the water together.

Xie Jinyu knew how to swim, but when he suddenly fell into the lake, he was in a panic, his mind seemed to be filled with paste, and his original knowledge about water properties became blurred, so he could only let the lake water pour into him nose and ears.

Qi Lin moved very quickly, almost holding Xie Jinyu in his arms the moment he fell into the lake.He supported the man's waist with one hand, and slapped the water surface with the other. He fished for the moon in the water, and pulled the man up from the bottom of the water.

"Don't be afraid, open your mouth and breathe." Qi Lin supported Xie Jinyu and comforted him calmly.Although he is holding a person in his arms, he has practiced martial arts all year round and has amazing physical strength. In addition, Xie Jinyu himself is small and very thin, so it is easy to lift it up.

"Cough~" Xie Jinyu coughed twice, spat out the water poured into her mouth, and then opened her eyes in fear.

The whole body was wet, and the touch of the hand on the waist became more obvious.

The warm, calloused hand that obviously belonged to a man gently rested on his waist, and gently lifted him out of the water.

"Mr. Xie, please follow the authority in a hurry. I have offended you so much. I hope you will forgive me." Qi Lin noticed Xie Jinyu's sudden stiffness, and quickly explained.

Xie Jinyu shook his head, looked at the bamboo raft floating not far away, and said worriedly, "Thank you Mr. Lin for saving me. I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong. Why should Mr. Lin apologize to me? It's just that we are trapped in the lake. Center, although I know how to swim, I am obviously no different from someone who doesn't know how to swim, how long can you hold me like this, Young Master?"

Xie Jinyu's worries were not groundless. Although Lin Qi looked at Kong Wu's strength, this was not a time when he was stronger than usual.This white lake has a huge area, and the two of them are trapped in the center of the water at the moment. It is extremely difficult for even a person who is proficient in water to get back to the shore, let alone Lin Qi has to take care of him at this moment. Lift him out of the water.

With the passage of time, Lin Qi's physical strength will inevitably decline slowly, and as soon as the sun sets, the lake water will gradually become icy cold, neither he nor Lin Qi may last long.

"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you." Qi Lin chuckled, even at this moment, he was still full of confidence in himself, "Did you see the bamboo raft ahead? I'll push you up later, You just sit on the bamboo raft, and I push you to slowly swim back to the shore."

After Lin Qi finished speaking, he carefully protected Xie Jinyu to swim to the bamboo raft.

"Is this feasible? Mr. Lin, you won't be able to hold on like this!" Xie Jinyu's anxious eyes turned red, but she didn't dare to resist at all, for fear of increasing the burden on Lin Qi's hands.

"Of course it's possible. Don't underestimate me. You're not heavy. You're not as heavy as my father's armor!" Qi Lin didn't care. After realizing his slip of the tongue, he quickly went to see Xie Jinyu's reaction. At this moment, all the minds are involved in the safety of the two of them, how can they separate their minds to think about other things?

"If you insist, I'll believe you!" Xie Jinyu used the strength in Qi Lin's arm to cling to the bamboo raft and turn over.

He knelt on the bamboo raft, looked at Lin Qi in the water, with tears in his eyes, "Mr. Lin, why don't you come up too?"

Xie Jinyu saw that Qi Lin was half submerged in the lake, his face was blue from the cold, but he pushed the bamboo raft firmly for him, Xie Jinyu felt mixed feelings, and tears rolled down.

This is the only man other than Father Xie, who is willing to protect him immediately, without considering life or death, or money, power, just to save him.

"No, you sit on it. The bamboo raft has turned over once, and it has been flooded. It is impossible for two people to sit on it. Since I am willing to let you sit on it, I have my own considerations, and I will not take my own. I'm just joking." Qi Lin shook his head, comforting Xie Jinyu.

As he exerted all his strength, the bamboo raft began to move slowly, and then gradually acquired an obvious rhythm, slowly drifting towards the shore.

Xie Jinyu saw that he was a little out of order at the beginning, and the bamboo raft spun twice in place, and now he is able to perfectly grasp the direction of the bamboo raft, and with the help of the current and wind, the bamboo raft floats without much effort.

Seeing that Qi Lin was really fine, Xie Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, stared at his face, and slowly recalled the feeling of the hand on his waist just now.

The more I thought about it, the more red my ears were bleeding.

In just a quarter of an hour, the bamboo raft had already floated to the shore and gently touched the reeds.

"Don't move, I'll go there first, there are a lot of mud puddles here, if you accidentally fall into it, you will suffer!" Qi Lin said first, let Xie Jinyu sit on the bamboo raft first, swim back to the shore by himself, take off his coat Then put it on the mud pit, folded off a lot of reed poles and leaves, and spread it on it.

Xie Jinyu was surprised, staring at him wondering what he was thinking.

"Come up now, it won't be easy to fall." Qi Lin stretched out his hand and smiled gently, "If you are worried, then hold me by the hand!"

Xie Jinyu lowered his head, stretched out his hand to hold him firmly, and then stepped forward, the blue embroidered shoes landed on the "path" he had paved.

The moment his feet landed on the ground, Xie Jinyu felt a kind of incomparable peace of mind and comfort, a feeling that even Xie's father could not give him.In addition to being protected by others, there is also a feeling of being carefully held in the palm of his hand.

Something seemed to have changed in his heart.

"Are you okay?" Seeing that Xie Jinyu didn't speak, Qi Lin thought that falling into the water had scared him, his eyes were worried, and his tone was full of self-blame, "It's my fault, I shouldn't have invited you to play in the center of the lake."

Even if it is a bigger ship, this kind of thing will not happen.

"I don't blame you. I wanted to see the fish on my own initiative. Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen into the lake. If I insist, I'm the one who got you involved." Xie Jinyu pursed her lips into a smile, and secretly took a look at Qi Lin. I feel that this man is completely different from Xu Yucheng in his previous life.

This is a responsible but also very considerate person.

"Sit down first, your clothes are soaked, but don't catch a cold." Qi Lin found a stone, wiped it clean, let Xie Jinyu sit down, and then went to the reed marsh to hug a handful of withered reed poles come over.

Standing, lighting a fire, and drying clothes are done in one go.

Xie Jinyu was sitting by the fire, watching Qi Lin bustle about, even sparks were dancing in his eyes.

"Come and bake together, you are more wet than me, and you have been frozen under the water for so long, before I don't fall down, you fall ill first." Xie Jinyu teased, but her face showed Show a little worry.

"I can't compare with you. My mother said that you brothers and sisters are very delicate. We men should take good care of you. If we can't even take care of you, how can we protect our family?" Qi Lin Touching his nose, he stopped the itching in the tip of his nose just now, walked to Xie Jinyu and sat down, quietly feeling the warm fire under his hand.

The surroundings were quiet, and the last rays of the setting sun were about to disappear. Both of them sat there quietly, feeling the sound of each other's breathing and the warmth flowing around them.

"The clothes are dry, let's go back, it's getting late, so that Uncle Xie won't worry." Qi Lin suggested, looked at him and smiled.

"Okay." Xie Jinyu nodded, pinching the corner of her clothes, and chuckled.

"I plan to open a restaurant, and the dishes sold in it are all the specialties of our Jiangning City, such as octopus and red claw crab. What do you think?" Qi Lin asked Xie Jinyu's opinion suddenly.

Xie Jinyu was taken aback for a moment, then blinked and thought of the restaurant that Xu Yucheng opened in his previous life, which seemed to be a special restaurant of life, but there were many rare gadgets and food that had never appeared in Da Xichao.

Such as hot pot, barbecue and food stalls?

"Of course that's great!" Xie Jinyu looked excited, his eyes were shining, and he talked to Qi Lin, "I think your idea is very good. If you can open a restaurant with Haicheng characteristics, you will definitely It has attracted the attention of many people. Let us take ourselves as an example. In Taiyuan, sugar beet is very common, but in Jiangning City, it is worth one tael of silver. This shows that many things are just because everyone's demand and supply are different. That's what caused the price difference.

Because Jiangning is located near the sea, it doesn't pay much attention to fish and shrimp, but it is not necessarily the case in other places.Especially for those who are deep inland and have never eaten sea fish and shrimp, these things are very strange.

If we improve the taste, we can attract more people to eat it. In this way, Jiangning City will develop better and better. "

After Xie Jinyu finished speaking, she stared at Qi Lin and said, "How did you think of this, it's amazing!"

Qi Lin raised his eyebrows, and said bluntly, "Uncle and cousin are trying to increase the income of the people recently. The southwest region is located in a remote area, and all kinds of resources are not as good as Guanzhong, but the tax has become more and more heavy in recent years. Cousin and the others We have to find a way to let the common people start side jobs.”

After listening to Xie Jinyu, he suddenly realized that he sincerely admired King An and his son, "His Royal Highness An is really a good highness who is diligent in government and loves the people. If this restaurant is developed, it is best to open it to prosperous places like the capital. Then the seafood in Jiangning City There will be a new market, and the nearby people rely on the sea to eat the sea, and their income will definitely increase.

Besides, most of the common people seldom eat meat once or twice throughout the year, so it would be good if these sea fish can satisfy their cravings.Compared with raising livestock such as chickens and ducks, fish in the sea not only has no cost to raise, but also saves a lot of time to develop other industries.

But, compared to others, my biggest concern is how to deliver these seafood?Jiangning is far away from other inland areas. When these seafood are transported to the capital and other places, there may be [-]% to [-]% casualties, and the meat quality will not be as delicious as it is now. "

Xie Jinyu bowed his head in thought. In his previous life, Xu Yucheng had a simple recipe for making ice cubes in his hand, so he could rely on a lot of ice cubes to keep the seafood delicious. But he didn't know how to make ice cubes, so it couldn't help him. Lin Qi.

"You don't have to worry about that, I already have a solution, do you want to cooperate with me?" Qi Lin smiled lightly and asked in a relaxed tone.

"What? You want me to start a restaurant business with you?" Xie Jinyu was extremely surprised. He thought Lin Qi was just asking for his own opinion, but he didn't expect this person to think that they were working together.

Xie Jinyu was a little hesitant. Lin Qi's idea was really good, because he had the memory of his previous life, and he clearly remembered how much profit such a "special restaurant" brought. It was precisely because he knew this that Xie Jinyu hesitated, because In his opinion, he couldn't help Lin Qi much, but instead took advantage of him.

Lin Qi could run the seafood restaurant in a splendid manner without his cooperation, but the reason why he hired him was only because of their friendship.

"Really don't want to? The Xie family can't rely on celadon prescriptions for the rest of their lives. They have to find other ways." Lin Qi Xiaozhi reasoned with emotion, "I know you really want to ask the family members You prove that although you are a brother, you are no worse than a man. You have perfectly solved the current crisis of the Xie family. If you can help the Xie family enter other business markets, you will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Xie family. gone."

"Thank you very much for your kindness, but in this way..." Xie Jinyu lowered her head with hesitation in her eyes.

"You don't have to feel guilty. In my opinion, we are mutually beneficial. First, I am a nephew after all. Although everyone doesn't say it publicly, they still care about my relationship with King An in their hearts.

I am not in fair competition with you. Take this celadon as an example, if the Xie family develops it alone, other merchants can come in and get a share. It is precisely because of me that other merchants are afraid of King An's ideas. I can only watch helplessly as this piece of fat is eaten by you and me. Once or twice is fine, if there is too much, it will inevitably not cause others to hold grudges.

Therefore, in future business, I may only use one name, and it is still up to you to decide more appearances and negotiations.

Second, I think the hot pot and barbecue you mentioned just now seem to be very good. Although I don't understand those things, just from your description, I know that they are rare things, and no one has researched them in the entire Daxi Dynasty.Would you like to refine these ideas and work with me?

The first person to eat crab is full of oil, I think we should be the first person, what do you think? "

After Qi Lin finished speaking, he didn't disturb him, and quietly waited for Xie Jinyu's answer.

Xie Jinyu was calm on the surface, but his heart was already surging. He could clearly hear a voice in his mind constantly urging: Promise him quickly, promise him quickly!What Lin Qi said was right, he couldn't show up for business matters in the future, so a spokesperson was always needed, so why wasn't this person him?

The most important thing is that Lin Qi doesn't know how to eat hot pot or barbecue, nor does he know that there is an ingredient called chili, which can perfectly solve the discomfort caused by various fishy and earthy smells, and even make people eat more The more addictive, the more you eat, the more aftertaste!

He can cooperate with Lin Qi, Lin Qi helps him solve external troubles, while he concentrates on business, researches various foods, and strives to make the restaurant bigger and stronger.

"Okay, I promise you!" Xie Jinyu stared at Qi Lin with burning eyes, his whole face radiated with confidence, making him look extremely dazzling, "I will definitely not disappoint your trust. It has become the signboard of our Jiangning City, and when people come to Jiangning, they will definitely think of Seafood Restaurant. When they hear the name of Seafood Restaurant, they will think of Southwest Jiangning City!"

"Okay, I'm waiting for this day!" Qi Lin responded happily, staring into Xie Jinyu's eyes, and established a partnership with him by this quiet lake.

……

"Finally willing to come back?" Father Xie caught Xie Jinyu from the door who had almost smeared home, his face was as ugly as a black cloth, and he stared at him very unkindly.

At such a young age, he almost stays out at night!

"Father—" Xie Jinyu was startled, called out like a quail, and whispered, "Why are you here..."

"Why am I here? If I wasn't here, how would I know that kid asked you out and you're coming back now?" Father Xie was furious, but he couldn't bear to get angry at Xie Jinyu, so he could only blame everything on Qi Lin, the culprit. body.

Father Xie took a look at Xie Jinyu, and found that he had a ruddy complexion and a smile in the corner of his eyes. Although the clothes on his body were a little wrinkled, they were clean without any damage.The upper is also clean as usual, without any muddy stains.

Even if that kid is smart, he didn't take Jinyu to some inexplicable places!

"Father, what are you looking at?" Xie Jinyu was embarrassed by Father Xie and couldn't help asking.

"What are you looking at? I'm watching a little white rabbit being snatched away by a big bad wolf, and I'm still looking at myself!"

After Xie's father finished speaking, he saw Xie Jinyu's face flushed red, he was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look at him, and went straight back to the room, not even daring to say good night to him.

At the same time, Xie's tongue was very depressed. He always thought about someday that Lin Qi would make an appointment to make a good meal, so that he had no intention.
