Looking at Wang Yunxiang's back, Gu Mingxuan smiled. Wang Yunxiang had a business mind, but his business sense was too poor. In terms of business tactics, even ten Wang Yunxiang could not beat him.
When they signed the partnership contract, Wang Yunxiang and the other teahouse owners thought they were smart and specially added a clause to the contract. The general idea was that if they broke up in the future, they would have to take their own teahouse brands.
Although Gu Mingxuan was confident that they would not easily break up because of their own interests, he had long planned to develop his own pillar brand.
When that day came, when Mingxuan Pavilion had developed to a similar stage, they would leave with the brand and the teahouse would be replaced by Mingxuan Pavilion!
Of course, it was not that simple to turn a teahouse into an old brand!
The reason why the old teahouses were called old teahouses was because they had their own unique skills, such as Lu Yu's Teahouse's slippery chicken ball rice, cloud leg dace fish horn; Black Sesame Cake and Fried Chicken from Lianxiang Restaurant; Shun Hing Restaurant's beef with slippery eggs, Feng City Restaurant's ancient braised pork ribs, dirty chicken... Wait a minute.
The cooking methods of these dishes were almost perfect in their respective fields. Moreover, they had already appeared before 1967, so Gu Mingxuan's Ten Thousand Mall did not have them at all.
However, it would be different in the future. In the future, their specialty dishes would slowly be placed in Mingxuan Pavilion. As for the special dishes of Mingxuan Pavilion, they might not have them anymore!
Of course, Gu Mingxuan would not do that unless it was the last resort.

"Master, you're back. Someone's looking for you!”
Mother Zhou was cleaning the house. When she saw Gu Mingxuan return, she immediately greeted him.
Gu Mingxuan did not know whether to laugh or cry at the title 'Young Master'.
He asked Mother Zhou to call him Ah Xuan, but Mother Zhou said that it was not appropriate and insisted on not calling him that.
After that, he rejected Mrs. Zhou calling him 'Old Master', then' Boss 'and finally' Young Master'. Seeing how persistent she was, Gu Mingxuan did not bother with her anymore.
"Someone is looking for me?"
Gu Mingxuan took off his shoes and entered the living room. He bumped into an old acquaintance.
"Isn't this Uncle Jin?"
"Boss Ah Gu, I don't deserve it. Please don't call me 'uncle'."
It was Jin Binghuan, the boss of Jin Tai Depository.
"Hehe, I'm used to calling you Uncle Jin. Why are you looking for me today?”
Gu Mingxuan asked with a smile.
"Gu…old. Master Gu, have you forgotten the seven gold bars you pawned at my pawnshop more than a year ago?”
Seeing that Gu Mingxuan did not forget their old friendship, Jin Binghuan could not help but feel comforted. He took out a bag of gold bars and placed it on the table.
These seven gold bars were the ones that Gu Mingxuan had pawned more than a year ago. Counting the time, it was almost two years!
"Uncle Jin, I'm sorry. I've been too busy recently. If you didn't remind me, I would have forgotten about this.”
The salary of a foreign teacher hired by Gu Mingxuan was enough to buy seven gold bars, so Gu Mingxuan naturally did not care about such trivial matters.
"It's normal for a noble like Mr. Gu to forget things! I had nothing to do, so I thought of returning the things to Mr. Gu. I didn't expect Mr. Gu to have moved away from Sham Shui Po. I asked around and found out that Mr. Gu had moved here. Only such a big house was worthy of Mr. Gu's current status.”
Jin Binghuan had a smile on his face, but he was actually a little disappointed. People really couldn't be compared. Two years ago, he was a pawnshop owner, and Gu Mingxuan was just a street vendor. He was still a pawnshop owner, but Gu Mingxuan had already become the famous 'King of Desserts' in Xiangjiang City!
Moreover, he heard from his neighbors that he not only married Hu Yanni, but also a beautiful concubine.
"Uncle Jin, don't just stand there.”
Seeing that Jin Binghuan was still standing, Gu Mingxuan gestured for him to sit down.
"Mr. Gu, this sofa is made of real leather, right?”
Jin Binghuan touched it. He felt that the sofa was very soft and smooth. It was different from the rough man-made leather at home. He could tell it apart with a touch.
"Hehe, I'm not sure either. These were all made by Sister Yanni and Doll. If Uncle Jin likes them, I'll get my men to buy a few more and send them to Uncle Jin's house.”
Gu Mingxuan smiled.
"No need... There's no need to trouble yourself ~"
Jin Binghuan hurriedly shook his head.
"By the way, is Uncle Jin still running that pawnshop?”
Gu Mingxuan asked.
"Yes, Young Master Gu. I'm ashamed to say that it's been decades, but I'm still living in that small pawnshop.”
Jin Binghuan looked embarrassed.
"Uncle Jin, don't be so modest. Everyone has different opportunities. Maybe what belongs to you just comes later.”
After a pause, Gu Mingxuan continued,""I wonder if Uncle Jin wants to expand the pawnshop?”
"Young Master Gu, of course I want to, but I don't have the capital ~"
Jin Binghuan had been running a pawnshop for so many years, and his family only had a few hundred thousand in savings. This money might not be much left after he found a shop in Wang City and renovated it.
Fight?
He didn't dare! If he lost all of it, he would really be in trouble. He was not living alone. He still had five or six mouths to feed at home.
"Uncle Jin, I can invest in you and give you the capital so that your pawnshop can be opened in all 18 districts of Xiangjiang City in the future.”
