Steward Wang's surname is Wang Laifu, born in an ordinary poor peasant family, he was sent to Ruyi Building by his parents when he was a teenager, and he stayed for more than 20 years and nearly 30 years before he walked step by step from a running hall to today. A person who has no talent and no opportunity wants to get to the top of the position, he can only rely on his qualifications, and it is foreseeable that at the very beginning of this road, it is inevitable to suffer from white eyes and humiliation.

Steward Wang went through such a period, heavy and long, so heavy that he was almost out of breath, and he wanted to give up for a while, but in the end he gritted his teeth and persevered. Since sitting in the position of steward, he needs to flatter in the Ruyi Building only the owner and the big shopkeeper, the owner is a kind person, and he has a good relationship with the big shopkeeper, and more people below need to look at his face to act.

It's been a long time since he's been slapped like this, and he's still a woman.

Steward Wang was so angry that his face turned pale, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Shen Shu, "You, you ......" was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while, but it didn't prevent him from doing it.

Shen Shu stood on the bow of the boat, very close to him, and he only needed to bend down slightly to hit her. And he did so, taking two steps forward, raising his hand to fight.

But in the end, his hand failed to touch Shen Shu, because when he pointed at her with his finger, she was already on guard, and when she noticed him raise his foot, she took a few steps back, out of range where he could touch when he stood on the shore.

"Why, Steward Wang has been working in the restaurant for so many years, and he doesn't even know how willing to buy and sell? The price of selling things should have been set by the person who sold them, but in the end, you didn't ask Uncle Liang and they agreed to give it directly, this is not called buying and selling, it's called buying and selling! Uncle Liang is honest and sincere, but this is not a reason for you to bully them. ”

"Also, talk is talking, don't think about using brute force to oppress people when you don't agree with each other, that's livestock, not people. This is the first time, and the last time, and I don't mind curing this beast next time. ”

Some people usually look amiable, but they are so angry that the words that come out of their mouths seem to be adulterated with poison.

Shen Shu is such a person.

"Slut, who is the brute!" Steward Wang became even more angry when he heard this, and was about to jump onto the boat without thinking about it, when Yue Liang and the others, who had been standing next to him, finally mustered up the courage to stop him.

"Steward Wang, if you have something to say!"

"Miss Shen, she didn't mean it, don't be angry!

Unable to get close to Shen Shu, Steward Wang had nowhere to vent his anger, so Yue Liang and the others who stopped him were beaten and kicked, and their mouths were accompanied by vulgar and ugly abuse.

Seeing this, Shen Shu was stunned and angry. The stunned was because of Yueliang's reaction, although they knew before they came that their personalities were a little too gentle, but they didn't expect that in this case, not only did they not resist, they didn't even hide, they just honestly stood next to each other. Needless to say, anger is due to the behavior of the king's steward.

At this point, Shen Shu no longer expected Yueliang to resist, so he could only stop the behavior of Wang Guanshi. As for how to stop a person who is in a state of madness? Instead of persuading with words, countering violence with violence is a simple, fast, and effective way.

Shen Shu likes this simple and rough way.

In the case of the abuser, it is only necessary to make him feel the pain, and he will stop the violence on the victim and look for the person who is causing him pain.

In her previous life, Shen Shu carried one or two self-defense items with her when she went out, but after coming to the Southern Dynasty, because the safety guarantee was almost zero, under the extremely difficult technical conditions, she needed to carry a lot, and the damage level ranged from low to high, and different policies could be used according to different situations.

So then there was a ridiculous scene on the dock.

A well-dressed middle-aged man waved his hand at the woman in front of him as if he was crazy, but he was stopped by a few people dressed as fishermen and couldn't move, I saw him scream from time to time, followed by a series of unbearable insults, and after a long time, his voice became more and more weak, and finally he couldn't scold.

After suffering enough, knowing that Shen Shu was not a good stubble, and knowing that he was currently equivalent to a person's situation under the roof, Steward Wang finally closed his mouth and quieted down to speak well.

He endured the hatred in his heart and tried to reason with Shen Shu, "Miss Shen, you don't say anything if you understand people, you know how much the popsicles you bring cost you do, it's just ordinary water with sugar and spices, I don't need to tell you how much these things cost, you have to earn at least half of the money for five cents a piece, this is already a lot, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, you should be content." ”

When Shen Shu heard this, he was noncommittal, and asked rhetorically, "The fish that Steward Wang bought back from the Yue family before, the price is very cheap, right? In addition to the main ingredients, a dish only needs a few ingredients, so the cost is not much, even so, the next time I go to the restaurant to patronize, how many dishes I ordered, not according to your price, but according to the cost price to double the price to give you money, what do you think?"

Steward Wang didn't think about it, so he sarcastically said, "It's really ridiculous! The dishes in my Ruyi Building are all exclusive secret products, and no one else can make them, how can you count them according to what you say!"

Shen Shu's tone was still calm, "Does Steward Wang know where this is? This is the coast, not the north, the temperature remains high all year round, there is no winter, there is no snow in a hundred years, let alone freezing, only a very few rich and noble families can afford to use the ice cellar, and the cost of transporting ice from a distant place does not need me to say that you know it too, right?"

"It's also rare and expensive, because the dishes in your Ruyi Building are unique and secret, so even if the cost is low, the price can't be measured by common sense, so why can Uncle Liang sell the popsicles only cheaply?"

"To put it mildly, no matter how unique the dishes of your Ruyi Mansion are, there are other houses away from your home, but the popsicles can only be obtained by Liulidao so far, and they don't have to spend a huge amount of money. Under such a premise, where do you get the confidence to think that if you give a price of five cents, Uncle Liang, they will be grateful to Dade?"

Steward Wang was speechless, and his face turned blue again, he tried to find a reason to refute Shen Shu, but he couldn't think of it anyway, and finally could only say maliciously, "The people on Liuli Island are just a group of untouchables, and what I want from them is to be extraordinarily gracious!"

When Shen Shu heard this, she subconsciously turned her head to look at Yue Liang and the others, only to see that they suddenly lowered their heads and did not refute. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and then went to see the Wang steward, with a high-spirited look, she laughed angrily, "Just say this to you, don't say it's fifty Wen, you just give five hundred Wen, I won't sell it to you, not only that, but in the future, I won't sell anything that comes out of my Liuli Island!"

Steward Wang snorted coldly, "I want to see who else on this dock will buy your things besides me!"

After he left, Yue Liang and the others raised their heads and looked in the direction he left, until his figure disappeared from sight, then he turned his head to look at Shen Shu, and said with a worried face, "Miss Shen, now that you have offended the king's steward to death, he will definitely not accept our fish in the future, what should I do if I can't sell it in the future......

Shen Shu comforted, "Uncle Liang doesn't have to worry, it's just the manager of a restaurant, and it's not that he has offended the government." I know that you have been fishing for generations, but for now, there is really no future in this industry, and since I promised the patriarch that I would help you live better, I will do everything I can, if not else, at least not to make your life worse than it is now. ”

"Don't think about it so much, the most important thing now is to go to a medical clinic and ask the doctor to see if you are injured, and then decide whether to sell or not depending on the situation. ”

Under Shen Shu's comfort, although Yue Liang and the others were worried, they still cheered up, but they didn't want to go to the hospital, saying that it was all right, rather than spending that unjust money, it was better to change the food and go back to let the children have a full meal.

Shen Shu couldn't resist them, so she could only give up the idea of taking them to the hospital, and instead took them to start selling popsicles.

However, the sale did not go well.

Shen Shu initially set the price at ten cents a piece, which is not cheap for ordinary people, but it can be bought by gritting his teeth. Because it is not cheap, she plans to do a two-day free tasting event first, and then start charging for it.

It stands to reason that there should be a lot of people willing to try free things, but the fact is that although many people are paying attention to them, no one comes forward, even if she asks Yue Liang and others to send it over, no one will pick it up. Later, someone told her that it was the Wang Guan of Ruyi Building who said that she was not allowed to buy things from the Yue family.

When Yue Liang and the others heard this, they looked panicked and at a loss, and couldn't help but discuss with Shen Shu whether to apologize to Steward Wang.

In this regard, Shen Shu refused without hesitation, and once again comforted them not to worry, she would solve it.

Shen Shu believed that this must be just the meaning of Steward Wang, and she didn't like to sit together, so she took Yue Liang and the others to Ruyi Building to find the big shopkeeper to make it clear. And it turns out that she still thinks too well of people, although they and their group met the big shopkeeper as they wished, the other party's attitude is not much better than that of Wang Guanshi, either sell it to Ruyi Lou at the price of four cents a piece, or just cover it and wait for it to turn into water.

probably really thought that Shen Shu and they only had one choice, Ruyi Building, and the big shopkeeper even lowered the price by another penny.

Yue Liang and the others almost agreed on the spot, but they were stopped by Shen Shu's tough attitude. She took them out of the gate of Ruyi Building, spent a few dollars to find someone to inquire, and got the news she wanted.

As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is the friend, although Ruyi Lou is the largest restaurant in this area, but it is not the only one, the scale of the drunken immortal residence on the same street is not much different from the Ruyi Building, and it also has a history of several decades, and it can be opened in this mixed place for decades, and the owner behind it must have the ability.

Shen Shu's goal is the Drunken Immortal Residence. As long as you cooperate with Zuixianju, you don't have to worry about the suppression of Ruyi Building.

Shen Shu took Yue Liang and others to Zuixianju to seek cooperation, but instead of selling popsicles, they sold ice cubes.

The coastal climate is hot all year round, and the ice cellars are used not only for one season, but almost all year round. However, because of the high cost of transportation, only the very wealthy can afford it. As long as the cost is reduced and the average wealthy family can afford it, this is a high-end market with profits countless times greater than popsicles.

This was thought of by Shen Shu shortly after Yue Donghai asked about the feasibility of selling popsicles, but she didn't bring it up immediately, because as a member of Yue's family, she couldn't get in touch with this circle, and it was too difficult to open the market, so she was ready to rely on popsicles to pave the way first. It's just that now that there is an accident in the king's stewardship, she can only advance the plan.

Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper of Drunken Immortal Residence agreed to cooperate, and Liuli Island provided ice cubes, and Drunken Immortal Residence sold them, but there was a long time of see-saw on the issue of price. Because it is for the high-end market, the price is not calculated by a few pennies like a popsicle, and because of the large volume of goods traded, even a little reduction in the price is a large amount.

When Shen Shu was negotiating with the big shopkeeper, Yue Liang and the others were listening on the side, all of them with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

The big shopkeeper wanted to make a fuss about their reactions several times to reduce the price, but Shen Shu said lightly that she could only call the shots and blocked all the roads.

The big shopkeeper could only bite and agree to Shen Shu's conditions.

However, because Shen Shu also put forward a few special requirements, such as because the amount of ice cubes is too large and more manpower is needed for production, so it does not provide door-to-door delivery services, and the people of Zui Xianju are required to pick up the goods by themselves, and another is that when checking out, part of the money should be converted into daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil and salt at market prices, and the boat that went to pick up the goods will be brought over by the way, etc., although the big shopkeeper of Zui Xianju agreed, but asked the price of ice cubes to be lowered a little more, and Shen Shu also agreed.

After the cooperation was negotiated, Shen Shu took Yue Liang and others back to Liuli Island.

On the way back, along the way, Yue Liang and the others always maintained an unbelievable state of mind, looking at Shen Shu's gaze, it can be said that they are respectful, and they are not much worse than the old patriarch.
