When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately laughed.
She really didn’t expect her man to be so petty!
“Of course. I’m very calculative about the time I spend with you!” Luo Cheng said as he walked over and shrugged as he said to Li Xiaoran.
“I see you’ve been ma.s.saging your shoulder. Is it sore? I’ll give you a ma.s.sage.
Then, you’ll feel much better!”
Li Xiaoran enjoyed Luo Cheng’s coyness very much. Suddenly, Li Xiaoran felt pain and cried out.
“It hurts!”
“It hurts! Xiaoran, don’t move. Let me ma.s.sage you again. You’ll be fine after the pain!” Luo Cheng pressed Li Xiaoran down and continued to ma.s.sage her.
Li Xiaoran couldn’t move and could only let Luo Cheng ma.s.sage her.
As expected, Li Xiaoran felt the soreness on her shoulder disappear. Even the uncomfortable part of her neck felt much better!
“Eh, I really feel much more comfortable!” Li Xiaoran said in surprise.
When Luo Cheng saw Li Xiaoran’s happy expression, he smiled.
“How is it? I didn’t lie to you, did I?!”
“Yes, yes, yes. My husband is the best!” Li Xiaoran quickly said sweetly, “It’s my blessing to be able to marry you!”
Luo Cheng nodded in agreement when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
“Then hurry up and acc.u.mulate more blessings so that you can marry me in the next few lifetimes as well!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Reaching out, Li Xiaoran tapped Luo Cheng’s nose.
“Husband, one lifetime is enough. It’s not good to be too greedy!”
“I don’t care! I want to meet you in my next life, next next life, and countless other lives!” Luo Cheng said.
When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she walked over and hugged him.
“Alright, we’ll meet again in our next lives as well!”
After Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words , he looked at the person in his arms and smiled in satisfaction.
He was really greedy. Even though he knew that the next life was unknown, he still wanted to be with Li Xiaoran.
The food street quickly got on track.
Many people followed the rules set by Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran.
Of course, very few people could buy a house and shop in the end. Instead, there were many people who rented them.
At the same time, more than ten families applied to borrow money to do business.
After the evaluation of the people Li Xiaoran had trained, they chose three families and lent money to them.
However, although this money was lent, it wasn’t distributed to these people.
The rent for the house and shop was paid directly, and payment for the rest of the money would be tracked by people.
In other words, when people who rented houses and shops needed to buy ingredients, cutlery, tables, chairs, and everything else they needed to do business, someone would follow them to buy them. After they chose them, the people sent by Li Xiaoran would pay for them.
This also guaranteed that these people would use this money to do business and not use it elsewhere.
After borrowing the money, one of the families embezzled it elsewhere.
In the end, because Li Xiaoran and the others had a trick up their sleeve, this family’s plan fell through. The people Li Xiaoran sent saw through their scheme.
After Li Xiaoran learned of this, she immediately asked someone to publicize that from now on, this family and those related to this family could forget about working on the food street or under Luo Cheng’s businesses. At the same time, all the shops under Luo Cheng and the consort wouldn’t be open to this family and wouldn’t do any business with them!
That family was punished.
Many shops in town were closed to them. In the end, this family could only suffer the consequences of their actions.
After this incident, the others became much more well-behaved.
At least, the people who borrowed money from Luo Cheng started their business without playing tricks.
Li Xiaoran remembered the ‘Sheep’s Head Soup Restaurant’, so she called Luo Wenchao and Luo Wenbiao over.
In the past few days, Li Xiaoran had asked Ziyang to arrange for someone to secretly keep an eye on the Luo brothers and see how they were doing.
Li Xiaoran was very satisfied with the news she received. The Luo brothers were very diligent and had never slacked off.
Ever since the Luo brothers came to the shop to work, they had been very
There were a few times when they encountered trouble, but the brothers stood up and resolved the trouble.
Therefore, Li Xiaoran decided to leave the mutton business to the Luo brothers.
As soon as they heard that Li Xiaoran wanted to promote them to owners, Luo Wenchao and Luo Wenbiao were stunned.
“Sister Ran, are you serious?” Luo Wenchao was the first to react and couldn’t help but confirm again.
Li Xiaoran smiled at the Luo brothers and said, “Of course. I called you two over, so it must be true!”
Luo Wenbiao asked, “Sister Ran, can I ask why? Many people in the shop are more capable than us. Why us?”
Li Xiaoran could sense Luo Wenbiao’s anxiety, so she smiled.
“Everyone else in the shop has something else to do! As for what you mean, I understand! Mao Dao will marry my cousin soon. At that time, they will move out to do business. As for Yuan Cheng, he doesn’t have any big plans. He thinks that it’s not bad to be able to sell buns in the shop for the rest of his life. Now, you should understand why I’m looking for you guys, right?”
When Luo Wenchao and Luo Wenbin heard Li Xiaoran’s explanation, they immediately understood.
“Sister Ran, we’re willing! As long as you give the order, we’re willing to do anything! Without you, the two of us wouldn’t have our current stable lives! So as long as you need it, we can do anything!” Luo Wenchao quickly agreed.
Luo Wenbiao also nodded, indicating that he and his brother were thinking the same thing.
Li Xiaoran laughed when she heard the brothers’ words.
“Since you guys are willing, this matter will be easy to handle! This is my plan. One of you will be the shopkeeper and the other will be the chef. Then, I’ll hire a few attendants! Go back and think about who will be the shopkeeper and who will be the chef.’
“I’ll give you guys a chance, but you have to pa.s.s my a.s.sessment! For example, the one who will become the chef has to learn how to make mutton soup from me.. If your culinary skills don’t meet my requirements, I can naturally replace you!”
