Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 83: New business

Views:

It was already nine o'clock in the evening, but the heat in the room had not dissipated, and Li Wei was not sleepy at all at this time. During the day, I gave the TV to my mother, and now she is standing in front of the TV, fanning. She looked for programs to watch on one channel after another, and finally stopped in front of a costume drama.

It was another martial arts drama. Li Wei stared at the TV, not letting go of any of the male characters that appeared in it.

It's about the love between children and heroes but the shortness of breath among heroes. In fact, it is a romantic drama disguised as a martial arts drama about the love between a son and a daughter. The protagonist is a generation leader who has developed superb martial arts skills and bears a blood feud. However, this leader is not just looking for revenge, but is constantly dealing with the three women all day long. He was still a hero, but Li Wei didn't see the slightest bit of it.

Li Jianping came back from the shower and saw Li Wei watching TV. He also became interested and sat down beside him.

"I don't see that you are quite interested in these fights and killings."

Li Wei shook his head and said, "No, I'm not interested."

Li Jianping wanted to say, then why are you still watching, but he thought about the girl going to Chen's house to practice martial arts, and asked Li Wei: "Do you think the martial arts shown in this drama are realistic? Your master is facing off against this master. What are the chances of winning?”

Li Wei said: "Master told me that many of the heroes on TV don't know martial arts, and what they practice are just showy, but useless. The light skills and internal strength are all nonsense."

"Then you still enjoy watching it?"

"I..." appeared, and the man Li Wei was looking for finally appeared in her sight again. Zhao Qian on TV played the role of a young prince this time, but he was well-dressed, very similar to what she remembered. But this young prince is a playboy. He does good business all day long, and only knows how to drink wine and fight for women with the boss.

When Li Wei saw the beautiful young prince in his arms, he snorted disdainfully: "You bitch!" The young prince wanted to get that beauty, but unfortunately the beauty's heart was with the master, so he secretly drugged the food. The beauty fainted after drinking the wine. The young prince carried the beauty to the bed and reached out to untie the beauty's clothes. Li Wei was furious when he saw it, and he shouted regardless: "You are immoral, you bitch!"

Li Jianping was dumbfounded. How could his sister, who was usually a very polite person, speak such vulgar words. Fortunately, the young prince did not succeed and was broken into by the master. Two men fight over a woman.

Li Wei was watching and getting angry, and kept cheering for the leader: "Kill him, kill him!"

After the two fought for more than ten rounds, they finally decided the winner. The young prince finally vomited blood to the ground, and the leader successfully regained the beauty. This kind of plot is extremely comfortable for Li Wei, and she is extremely satisfied.

Li Jianping then interjected: "Wei Wei, you are really immersed in watching TV."

"Hey, it's natural. Brother, I have a grudge against the actor who plays the young prince. Please tell me if you have any scenes with him in the future."

Li Jianping held his forehead and wondered what this meant. My sister was too involved in the drama, and even the actors hated her.

One more thing Li Wei had to do during the summer vacation was to chase the dramas played by Zhao Qian. Zhao Qian also appeared in another costume drama. He had quite a lot of roles in that drama and was equivalent to being the third male lead. And it's a positive role. When Li Wei saw Zhao Qian's serious look, she always felt that he was sanctimonious and a hypocrite. Instead, she liked the villain he played more, and she was extremely happy when he was suppressed by the protagonist.

Li Jianping repeatedly urged Li Wei to draw. After thinking hard for two days, Li Wei finally decided to draw a picture of a night banquet that symbolized happiness and auspiciousness. There are many characters in it and they need to be well outlined and rendered. Li Wei promised to finish the painting before opening. I first drew up the draft in pencil, and revised the line draft several times. Then came coloring and rendering, which took her a lot of time.

By the time she finished drawing the night banquet picture, it was already approaching the start of school.

Li Jianping urged him several times, but seeing that Li Wei was not in a hurry, he no longer had much hope. It was not until Li Wei handed the complete picture to Li Jianping's hand that he thought for the first time. I was shocked for the first time by my sister's talent.

Although he didn't know how to appreciate paintings, he felt they were indescribably beautiful. When he took out the frame, the framer also praised it for a long time and asked Li Jianping if he could sell the painting. How could Li Jianping be willing to give up

When this picture of a night banquet, which is four meters long and one and a half meters wide, is hung in the newly renovated lobby, the store immediately becomes scholarly and quaint. Li Jianping asked his parents and Li Wei to take a look at the renovated store. Li Minghua looked at the brand-new and bright shop and was not dissatisfied. Although Liu Chunzhi felt good in her heart, she was worried about money.

"I'm afraid it cost a lot to make such a big fuss, right?"

"Slowly you will make a profit, and you will be able to earn it back. How can you do it if you are not willing to spend money."

Li Wei looked at these antique decorations. Although many of them did not meet the regulations after careful research, the requirements should not be too high. The perfect fusion of modern and ancient times is pretty good.

Li Jianping asked his mother to try the stove. The family had hot pot for the first time in their new restaurant.

After Liu Chunzhi repeatedly adjusted the ingredients, the taste is already outstanding. The Li family spent a lot of money to build this store and are full of hope for the future.

A new store was about to open, and the few people from the Li family alone were not enough, so Li Jianping had no choice but to post a recruitment notice at the door. Within two days, two workers were hired. The opening date had already been visited by others, and it was a rare auspicious day.

"Li Ji Hotpot Restaurant" has finally opened. Li Jianping has launched an opening promotion, and all drinks are discounted. In the past few days of the opening event, all the more than ten tables have been filled.

Liu Chunzhi now only uses stir-fry ingredients and feels much more relaxed. Seeing the guests arriving one after another, the smile on her face was more beautiful than flowers. It seems that this business is going to be successful.

After the first month, I made a small profit, which is not bad.

As they got busy, there were not enough small-time workers. One day, a familiar face came to their store to apply for a job. It was none other than Wang Yulan, Li Wei’s former playmate.

It is safe to use it if you know the basics. Liu Chunzhi was about to take it on the spot.

"Aunt Liu, will you cover me?"

Liu Chunzhi said with some embarrassment: "We won't cover it for the time being. But can't you find a place to live?"

Wang Yulan nodded, and Liu Chunzhi thought for a while and said, "Then you and Weiwei live together first. After two months of hanging out, I'll see if I can help you solve the accommodation problem."

Wang Yulan had no choice but to agree. That night she followed Liu Chunzhi back to the Li family's house.

It was almost twelve o'clock when they returned, but Li Wei had not yet fallen asleep and was doing homework under the lamp. She was still a little surprised by Wang Yulan's appearance.
