Zhang Jianyan's face changed when he heard this, and he just wanted to speak out against it, but he was stopped by his son-in-law with his eyes. The latter then turned his face and scolded: "I talk to Zhou Gongzi about things, what are you talking about?" Get me out! ”

Only then did the subordinate remember his identity, hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and then exited the door. After this trouble, Zhang Gongzi no longer dwelled on the problem in front of him, but smiled at Zhou Yun: "It makes Brother Zhou laugh, but this is just a trivial matter after all, how can it be important for you and me to drink." As he spoke, he raised his glass.

Although Zhou Yun was unwilling, he was not too eager at this time, so he could only smile reluctantly and raise his glass accordingly. Because Zhang Gongzi deliberately diverted the topic, they didn't talk about Liu Fangju and Sun Tu after that, and Zhou Yun left after pouring a few glasses of wine.

As soon as he left, the smile on Zhang Gongzi's face suddenly put away, and his eyes showed a look of ridicule: "He, Zhou Yun, is so wishful thinking, he actually wants to use me to achieve his goal." ”

"Childe's eyes are like torches, but the small one is too worried." Zhang Jian said jokingly.

"But that Sun Tu actually dared to give me such a face, and this matter can't be left like that. The hotel's business has plummeted in the past two months, and if it doesn't improve, it's not easy to explain it to adults. Zhang Gongzi said with a frown. He didn't mean an official, he meant his own father.

In fact, since ancient times, adults have been the name of the younger generation to their fathers and ancestors, and there is no such thing in the officialdom to call their bosses or colleagues, otherwise it will be like recognizing someone as a father, and it will become a joke. It wasn't until later that such dignified etiquette was abandoned, and there was a scene of adults from top to bottom.

Zhang Jian nodded yes, he also knew that his son-in-law had a lot of burden recently, this Niulou Hotel was made by the master of the family to test his ability, if he really lost money, he was only the second son of the family, and the next days would be even more difficult.

So he quickly said: "What Childe said is that this matter really can't be just settled, but it is absolutely impossible to use force." That Liufangju is the property of the Tong family, so it will offend Mrs. Tong, and it will only bring more trouble to you, Gongzi. And the cheap one will only be that Zhou Yun. ”

"Tell me, then, how do we fight back?"

"Since Sun Tu Hengzhi refuses to sell us the fried chicken recipe, then we can only use some other means. The small one actually has two strategies, if it can be two-pronged, Liufangju will definitely not be able to eat and walk around! With that, Zhang Jian stepped forward and lowered his voice to explain his plan.

Zhang Gongzi's face, which was originally cloudy, really looked better: "This is indeed a good idea." What's even better is that everything is justified, even if Mrs. Tong investigates it afterwards, he can only blame his own people for not having enough means. Just do as you want, and I'll see results in half a month. ”

"The little one understands, I've let people act according to the plan in the past two days." Zhang Jian immediately clenched his fists and agreed, but he sighed a little in his heart, at least his son-in-law could still listen to the good words, instead of doing something out of the ordinary in anger.

After entering the winter moon, Sun Tuke was a little busier than before, because he not only had to practice riding and archery during the day and calligraphy at night, but now he also practiced more guns and sticks. In this way, the time is a little crowded, and in desperation, I can only tell Tong Mu and Wu Li to confess their crimes and reduce the number of times they go to Liufangju.

In this regard, Tong Mu still expressed his understanding and support, because he knew that this was the more important thing for Sun Tu and related to his future future. And now Liufangju has also entered a stable track, as long as he can provide the ingredients for fried chicken in time, it will not affect the business of the store, and it doesn't matter if he goes or not.

In the afternoon of this day, when Sun Tu was practicing a set of stick skills he had newly learned from Lu Zhishen in his yard, there was a sudden knock on the courtyard door, which made him pause his movements and go over to open the door.

After seeing that it was Wu Li standing in front of the door, Sun Tu couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Shopkeeper Wu, you came here like this today?" Didn't I just send the condiments two days ago, so I don't think I'll run out of them, right? ”

After Wu Li came in, he frowned: "Sun Gongzi, it's not that the condiments have run out, but that there is a lack of chicken." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Sun Tu was a little confused. He knew very well that Liufangju had to sell two or three hundred chickens a day recently, which was indeed a large number in today's era, after all, the number of chickens raised by the farmers in Bianjing and the surrounding areas was also limited.

However, he never thought that this would be a problem, the commerce of the Great Song Dynasty was already quite developed, as long as there was demand, there would be someone to supply, especially in a capital city like Bianjing, there were people who wanted to make money, since they wanted chickens, there would be people to raise them, or even go to other places to buy them and sell them to Liufangju.

But today, how can there be such difficulties?

After sitting down, Wu Licai explained with a bitter face: "Originally, the chicken in our store was guaranteed, and it was purchased from several Zhuangzi outside the city, and the price was always fair. But just two days ago, the farmers in those villages suddenly stopped supplying. At that time, the little ones thought that they had sold all the chickens they had to give us, so they didn't think much about it and wanted to buy them from somewhere else. However, when I inquired around, I found that I couldn't find a place around Tokyo where I could buy chickens......

"The supply was suddenly cut off?" Sun Tu narrowed his eyes, and he already had a faint judgment in his heart: "How can there be such a coincidence in this world, I'm afraid someone is doing something in secret, right?" ”

"It turns out that as early as a few days ago, someone bought chickens from farmers at a price higher than 10% higher than ours, and now there are no chickens to buy in Tokyo."

"It's a good trick to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, and it's really coming for our fried chicken." Sun Tu sneered, he knew that this must be an off-the-board move used by some peers in the city when they saw that the competition could not be competitive. In fact, if this kind of trick is placed in the future generations, it is impossible to do it, after all, the logistics after a thousand years are too developed, and you can't buy things in one place, so you can buy them from other places with some painstaking efforts. However, these times are different, and it is not cost-effective to buy chicken from outside Gyeonggi and the cost of buying chicken from outside Gyeonggi is not only time-consuming.

"Sun Gongzi, what do you say next? In the past two days, the second son has been left in the Guozi Prison because of something, and the little one has no choice but to discuss with you. Shopkeeper Wu said with a bitter face.

Only then did Sun Tu know why the other party came to find him first, but then, his heart moved again, this matter seemed to have been planned for a long time, and he calculated that Tong Mu would not be able to come out of the Guozi Prison, so he would make a move. From this point of view, the opponent should be quite familiar with the affairs of the Tong family.

However, he quickly pressed this question down for the time being, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Wu, you don't have to be anxious, I will figure out how to do this." Isn't there just no supply of chicken? I'll send you some tomorrow at the latest. ”

"Sun Gongzi, can you really find chicken?" Wu Li was a joy at that time, but asked with some suspicion. Because the signature of Liufangju is the fried chicken, the inability to supply it for a day has made many customers feel dissatisfied.

"Of course, you just have to keep your heart at that. I promise to deliver the chickens, and the price is fair, and it won't be difficult for you. Sun Tu patted his chest and said.

When he said this, Wu Li didn't want to have any doubts, so he nodded and said, "Then I'll rest assured." I just hope that Sun Gongzi will send the chicken to the store as soon as possible. After speaking, he bowed his hand again and again and left.

And Sun Tu showed an unpredictable smile at this time. Those opponents may still be a little threatening when they use this trick on others, but when it comes to themselves, it is not a problem at all.

Before, he had thought about how to take out the frozen chicken in the warehouse of the Middle Ring Realm and digest it, but now he just gave himself a chance. This time, those opponents did themselves a great favor, and they could justifiably exchange the contents of the warehouse for cash.

Thinking in his heart, Sun Tu returned to his house. After bolting the door, as soon as he touched the ring on his hand, he had entered the warehouse system of the Middle Ring Realm, and came to the third warehouse, which had never been used like this before. There, there are countless frozen chickens, ducks, pigs and beef......
