0182: Overhead Plan For Food, Clothing, Housing And Transportation.
Time flies, and half a month has passed quickly.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Qiao Ji took Lei Nai and Shi Duo out, and the destination was No. 1 Avenue of the Imperial City.
They want to see the start of construction of the restaurant.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
Inside the carriage.
"Master, the Holy League has now occupied the old Xin district, and the three major forces in the old Xin district have been annexed."
Lei Nai showed a look of admiration, and Hui reported, "The Holy League is now the only underground force in the old Xin district."
The black cat girl thinks that the Scarlet Valkyrie is so powerful that people in the old Xin District call her the big sister.
Lei Nai thought that such a title was very good, and thought that he must practice his skills well in the future, and strive to be called a Valkyrie or something like that.
"Oh, so quickly? How many members are there in the Holy League?" Qiao Ji nodded appreciatively.
He felt a little more at ease, and it seemed that his god-sister did things neatly, without sloppy at all.
"The Holy League now has about 500 people." Lei Nai responded obediently.
"Send a message to Sister Dinah to pay attention to safety, don't reveal your identity."
Qiao Ji stroked his chin with his slender fingers, thought for a while and ordered, "Also, let Sister Dinah streamline the members of the Holy League, and don't keep the dregs."
He doesn't think that a large number of people is a good thing, sometimes the more people there are, the easier it is for rebellious people to appear.
In Qiao Ji's impression, there are top 10 people who are rebellious by their subordinates.
"Received." Lei Nai responded with blinking black eyes.
Qiao Ji opened the curtain and looked outside the street, and said indifferently, "There are more and more people watching us."
His mind began to run rapidly, wondering if he should get rid of some people?
"My lord, Lian Xin has already investigated clearly, and now there are five groups of people watching us." Lei Nai gritted his silver teeth in displeasure.
"Oh? Who is the fifth group?" Qiao Ji raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Now he only knows that among the people who are monitoring him, there are four forces, the eldest prince, the second prince, the Haiba family, and the Bran family.
"My lord, it's the royal family." Lei Nai said in a deep voice.
"Is it her? Or the person in power?" Qiao Ji suddenly realized, and the strange-colored pupils also tightened slightly.
He thought of Princess Yurafi, or perhaps the Great Emperor, the royal mind is always unpredictable.
"Are they watching closely?" Qiao Ji asked with restraint.
"Very strict." Lei Nai shook his fluffy cat ears.
I really didn't expect that I would be so popular. Sure enough, the turmoil of gunpowder has not stopped.
Qiao Ji shook his head mockingly, suddenly five groups of people stared at him.
As for Miss Eve, no one has been sent to watch her for a long time.
Moreover, the eldest lady is having a hard time recently, and the perfume business is getting more and more prosperous. Some ladies seek cooperation with young girls.
Some people think that the eldest lady is the one who talks about the perfume, and the young man is just a white glove on the bright side.
"Forget it, it's pretty good to go undercover." Qiao Ji felt that she was still developing, so it's better not to be too impulsive.
All these groups of people can only be considered to be cleaned up after most of the layout is mature.
Just draw attention to yourself on the bright side.
Wretched development, don't waste time. Qiao Ji's thoughts at the moment.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
When the carriage passed a street in Mengou District.
"Stop." Qiao Ji called out.
"Yes.
Shi Duo pulled the reins, and the carriage stopped.
Qiao Ji opened the curtain with his hand, and his eyes fell on a small shop by the road. There was a long queue at the door of the small shop.
He nodded slightly, and said with satisfaction, "The flow of people is good."
This is a breakfast shop that sells buns. It is one of the small restaurants that Qiao Ji secretly opened some time ago.
The steamed stuffed bun shop opened ten days ago, and it is extremely popular, almost always full of queues, selling from morning till night.
Many nobles sent people to line up, just to buy a steamed stuffed bun. One can imagine the popularity of steamed stuffed buns.
"Lei Nai, let's go down and buy some meat buns." Qiao Ji got up and got off the carriage with a smile on her lips.
It is the first time for him to come to the steamed stuffed bun shop since it opened, so today is just a taste of it.
"Yes." Lei Nai happily got out of the carriage.
"Tat Tat Tat..."
The two got out of the carriage and walked to the bun shop, where the queue was at the main entrance.
There is also a small side door next to the shop, and there is a sign on the side of the door, which says 'only for nobles'.
Those who lined up watched the boy and the girl walk into the passage dedicated to nobles, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Only nobles can stay in the store to eat, and everyone else has to take it away. After all, the store is really not big.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
Qiao Ji led Lei Nai into the store, and just as she entered, she saw an ordinary-looking middle-aged woman standing aside and waiting.
The furnishings in the whole steamed stuffed bun shop are very simple, there are many steaming trays placed at the entrance, and six staff members are responsible for ordering and selling steamed stuffed buns.
There are only a few tables inside the bun shop, and each table can seat four people, other than that, there is nothing special about it.
"Hello, my lord, what kind of steamed buns do you want?" The middle-aged woman asked respectfully.
"Give me eight meat buns." Qiao Ji had been thinking about something to eat for a long time.
"Yes, a meat bun needs three copper horns." The middle-aged woman offered with a smile.
"Here." Lei Nai took out eight meatbag coins and handed them over.
"Thank you, sir, please wait a moment." The middle-aged woman turned and left.
"My lord, I see that steamed buns are what common people buy the most." Lei Nai listened to the voice of ordering outside.
"The main reason why steamed buns are attractive is its taste, steamed buns are soft and soft, not as hard as hard wheat bread.
Qiao Ji looked at the furnishings inside the store and said, "The meat stuffed buns are also expensive, most commoners are reluctant to bear them.
Steamed buns are sold cheaply, each one costs only one copper horn, and ordinary people can eat two.
"I see." Lei Nai began to look forward to the meat buns.
Qiao Ji and Lei Nai sat for a while, when Lian Xin came in from the back door of the shop.
She walked in front of the young man with soft and charming steps, and said distressedly, "My lord, there are more people under surveillance recently."
The fox girl has no way to go directly to Qiao Ji's house recently, so as not to reveal her identity, and even dare not let the pigeons go around, so she can only use kittens to convey information.
The steamed stuffed bun shop is the best way to cover it up. Anyone who looks at it will think that the Viscount of the Sleepy House is only greedy for steamed stuffed buns here.
"It will be fine in a while." Qiao Ji smiled gently.
He is waiting for Dinah to grow up, then he can start to eliminate the underground forces and the people who are watching.
"Okay." Lian Xin looked at the boy resentfully.
The two hadn't seen each other for several days recently, and they both began to miss her a little, and their orange eyes were full of grievances.
So, I made an appointment to meet at Baozipu today.
"..."
Qiao Ji coughed lightly and asked, "Except for the bun shop, what is the situation of the other small restaurants now? How many have they opened?"
The resentful eyes of the fox girl are so charming that they can seduce people's hearts.
Lian Xin's every frown, smile, and every move is full of tenderness, she is a proper vixen.
Qiao Ji doesn't want to be in a steamed stuffed bun shop with Fox Ear Girl, after all, Black Cat Girl is still there.
"My lord, the number of small restaurants has grown to forty so far. According to what my lord said before, there are three to five restaurants in every 727 districts."
Lian Xin put away her resentful eyes, and reported seriously, "Every store has its own characteristics, and the business is not good."
"Is there anyone looking for trouble?" Qiao Ji knew that some people would be jealous.
"Although there are many people who come to make trouble, but for the time being, they are all small characters."
Lian Xin waved her hands calmly, and said softly, "It can be handled well now."
"Um"
Qiao Ji frowned and thought for a while, then ordered, "Stop the expansion of the small restaurant for the time being, and let Sister Dinah develop quickly first."
"Yes." Lian Xin knew what the Lord was worried about.
If too many people make trouble, it will be difficult for small restaurants to expand later.
"Let Sister Dinah start collecting protection fees, otherwise the income will be reduced, and I won't be able to support the expansion."
Qiao Ji lowered his brows slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Besides, it also costs money to suppress other forces, so it is just right to take advantage of the trend to bring small restaurants into the scope of protection.
He was going to let the Holy League escort him secretly, otherwise more and more nobles would focus on the small restaurant.
The existence of small restaurants is very important to Qiao Ji, and it will be one of the industries that will spread all over the imperial capital in the future.
In this way, it will affect the food aspect of the imperial capital. He wants to control the "food, housing, and transportation" of the imperial capital.
And small restaurants are only part of the 'food'.
"Understood, I will let others pass on these words." Lian Xin's expression also became serious.
While everyone was chatting, the buns had already been served.
Qiao Ji, Lei Nai chatted with Lian Xin for a while, and left directly after eating the buns.
However, those watching did not know what was going on.
