On the second day of October, all the staff of Wangjianglou were shrouded in haze.

Early in the morning, the cold wind was a little cold, the sky was gray, and the leaves fell from time to time outside the window, fluttering. Zhen Feng stopped the exhibition hall and Zhang Qu, who were usually open for business. Martin was silent, he was banned by Zhen Feng about this matter, and he could only look at the strange eyes of others.

When everyone gathered in the lobby, Zhen Feng briefly informed the information that Wangjiang Building and Huajian Building were competing on the same stage and closed for a month, and everyone felt incredible: Have I eaten your rice, why should we give in to the secret recipe we developed ourselves?

Zhen Feng explained: "In the past, we had no one to deal with, but now Huajian Lou treats us as enemies, which means that we have the qualifications to compete with Qin Huai." It's also a good thing for us, because we can do our hard work during this time and then explode again after a month. ”

Although everyone felt that what Zhen Feng said was quite reasonable, they were still immersed in the distress of earning 3,000 yuan a month. It was a series of knocks on the door.

"Open the door, don't hide inside as a turtle." Before the people inside could explain, a shrill voice from outside came in. Many people know that Xia Xiaoniang is here.

The people who watched the joke came. Zhen Feng motioned to Martin with his eyes to hold back, and he had to pretend that he didn't know about Xia Xiaoniang's good deeds.

"Xia Xiaoniang, doesn't Zhen Restaurant need to open the door to welcome guests, there is actually a kung fu to come to this old place."

"Hmph, Brother Feng still has the face to say such a thing. If the old lady doesn't come again, the Zhen family's restaurant should be destroyed in your hands. Everyone else seems to be still in the dark, so let the old lady tell me that you stole the secret recipe of Xiao Xiao's delicious food and wine, which is known as 'Yiya', and was exposed on the spot last night, and was almost arrested by the government and copied the restaurant. It's really a shame for the Zhen family!

The Zhen family is in Jiangning, even if they have a low status and work hard day and night, they have never done such a conscientious thing. Before, everyone was still curious about how you had such a secret recipe, maybe this restaurant was saved, so it was, the Zhen family was actually a thief. If this continues, this restaurant will be embezzled by you thieves before it is in operation, and the Zhen family has really raised a white-eyed wolf......"

On the faces of everyone who heard this, there was disbelief, anger, grievance, and fear, what Xia Xiaoniang said was completely different from what Zhen Feng said. Martin raised his head coldly and said, "Xia Xiaoniang, you are enough!" ”

Martin's outcrop interrupted Xia Xiaoniang's secret coolness and frenzy, but Xia Xiaoniang thought that this might be Martin "showing her heart" and dissociating herself, so she couldn't help it, and just sneered twice.

Zhen Feng waved his hand to stop Martin and said calmly: "Xia Xiaoniang, are you done?" When you're done, please come back. There is no need to spread rumors here and shake your confidence. ”

"Dare to do it, you still have the face to be this shopkeeper, and you still have the face to say that you have the final say here, I ......" Xia Xiaoniang really spat on the ground, and then continued: "Originally, your third uncle gave up seventy percent of this restaurant, not to mention that you still owe seventy percent of the money, and the Zhen family also has thirty percent, can't we say anything about the sins you created?" ”

"Naturally, there is Aunt Hui who speaks for these three elements, and she has been watching in this restaurant, why should a concubine of the Zhen family come here to talk more?" Zhen Feng didn't plan to let Xia Xiaoniang continue to climb on his head as a prestige, so he simply used her identity to scare back. Although the concubine's room is also the master's inner room, her status is only better than that of the slave.

"You...... The old lady is a concubine, so what, that is also your elder. You, a distant relative, don't know if it's fake, Longyang, who came to Zhen's house to eat, drink, and live, actually has the face to say that the old lady? ”

When Zhen Feng heard the word "Longyang" said in front of everyone, his face fell, originally it was just a tear between the two of them, but now it is openly torn. Aunt Wu stepped forward to hold Zhen Feng's hand, Zhen Feng restrained his anger, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Xia Xiaoniang, no matter how distant a relative, I am also a descendant of the Zhen family, calling you 'Little Niang' is already out of respect, some people don't give shame." You envy me for being handsome, so there's no way, who made you not good? ”

"You ......" Xia Xiaoniang pointed at Zhen Feng's nose, she didn't expect that she didn't annoy Zhen Feng this time, if everyone watched how he slapped her, plus what happened last night, Zhen Feng would definitely die without a place to be buried. She adjusted her state, snorted like a cow's nose, and said: "The restaurant has only been in your hands for half a month, and it has been boycotted by the whole Jiangning, you go out now and ask casually, who dares to come to the door?" Even if this restaurant is ruined in your hands, you will either give up the restaurant and let the Zhen family run it all, or you will buy all the shares and bear any debts yourself. ”

"In that case, I'll take the secret recipe and people with me, how about returning the part of the restaurant to the third uncle?"

Xia Xiaoniang was anxious when she heard it, the secret recipe is the root of the restaurant, and without the secret recipe, the restaurant is a drag oil bottle: "You want to be beautiful, if you want to leave, you can leave the house, and don't want to take away the people and things in the restaurant." ”

"Xia Xiaoniang, didn't you say that my secret recipe was stolen? Whether I stole it or developed it myself, I can put it here and use it, why can't I take it with me? If you can't talk about that, then buy all the shares. ”

"That's also cheap for you, I've already talked to your third uncle, as long as you give three thousand guan, these parts will belong to you. This time I want to cash out, and I can't be in arrears anymore. ”

"Yo, Xia Xiaoniang, the early investment after deducting the debts and receivables of the past half a year is less than 300 yuan, and now your valuation has risen tenfold in this mess, this arithmetic strength is really powerful, the household department should ask you to do statistics, and in the future, the tax revenue of the Tang Kingdom will be smooth and the country and the people will be safe."

"Don't talk so much useless, don't you have Jiangqing Pavilion members......" Xia Xiaoniang was so stimulated that she opened her mouth to come, but as soon as this remark came out, she suddenly felt that it was inappropriate, the matter of Jiangqing Pavilion was said to be known only to people who were in the private room at the time, and it was impossible for Duke Xu, Huangfu Gongzi and others to tell him, and it was impossible for Mother He and Lan Zhou of Jiangqing Pavilion to tell him, the only possible thing was Mother Liu and Aunt Qigu, which made it clear that she had a leg with Huajian Lou, and what it meant to have a leg with Qinglou for women's families, Xia Xiaoniang didn't dare to imagine. Thinking of this, Xia Xiaoniang puffed up her chest and shouted: "Since there is a part of the Jiangqing Pavilion, I will exchange it for a share." ”

"Xia Xiaoniang, what do you have to do with Mother Liu? You actually came up with such a false rumor. ”

"I heard from others that you don't go out for good things now, but evil things have spread thousands of miles, and it's impossible to hear some things."

"Since you believe that I have a part of the Jiangqing Pavilion, then go to the Jiangqing Pavilion and ask for it, I haven't seen this thing, I didn't expect a woman to be so familiar with Qinglou."

"You talk nonsense...... Get the money out and forget it. ”

Zhen Feng selected a good number: "Two hundred and fifty yuan, for the sake of the Zhen family's face, you can give two hundred and fifty yuan, the investment in the first half of the year will deduct the debt, and we will bear the other losses." If you agree, you will be transferred, and if you don't agree, you will be pulled down. Wangjianglou promised to close for a month, we are about to close, and the third uncle is still waiting for you in Zhenjia Restaurant, so I will not send it far. ”

It was expected that Zhen Feng dragged this matter down. In Xia Xiaoniang's calculations, if Wangjiang Tower goes bankrupt, the Zhen family will have to bear a lot of final debts, and so far seventy percent of the money has not been seen, and Zhen Jian is only a nominal debt. If 250 guan is recovered, it is equivalent to a loss of nearly 300 guan in this restaurant, and Zhen Feng will face a huge risk of bankruptcy and debt. It is also necessary to stop losses in time.
