Chapter 443: No money for eating upstairs
Yu Huishou had witnessed Zhang Shou and Ah Liu's master and servant eating the normal diet of six people in their own store, and today, when others saw that the young man who was not tall, not strong, and not very inconspicuous swept the dishes on the table thoroughly, so he was dumbfounded, but Yu Huishou, who was like a reed stick, was full of calmness.
Not only others, but even Weinan Bo Zhang Kang and Liu Zhiyuan stared at Ah Liu's gaze, which was also full of surprise. As for Lu Sanlang, he was used to Ah Liu's calmness no matter what happened, and there was a precedent for Zhu Er to be played around, so he not only acted as if nothing happened, but also asked diligently: "Sixth brother, how do these dishes taste?" β
Ah Liu glanced at Lu Sanlang with some doubts, and then asked rhetorically: "Will it be delicious to be able to participate in the imperial chef selection?" β
Everyone who was qualified to occupy a place on the second floor was surprised by the young man's murderous appearance just now, but when they heard this simple but simple evaluation, people immediately grinned and were proudβthey thought that this kid couldn't taste the taste of starving ghost reincarnation, but he didn't expect that his mouth was still very smart.
And Lu Saburo didn't expect Ah Liu to give such a flattering answer at all, if it weren't for the fact that he knew that young people always had one thing to say and two things to say, and he thought that people would suddenly become clever. But there was no doubt that such an answer would help him continue with the rest of his work, so he immediately gave Ah Liu a thumbs up with a smile.
"Sixth brother is really a good taste! If you say yes, it must be good, you are the most meticulous in what you say and do, otherwise how could the emperor appoint you to teach Zhu Erlang, who has always been fishing for three days and drying nets for two days? β
He quietly put gold on Ah Liu's face, and when he saw that the eyes of those who were still looking at Ah Liu condescendingly from all directions, he smiled secretly, thinking that with your rank, you are not enough to be complacent in front of others!
And Ah Liu saw Lu Saburo's intentions, and couldn't help frowning, he didn't like such a high hat. But immediately after Lu Saburo's next sentence, his dissatisfaction was all dispelled. As for what Lu Saburo said? In fact, it was very simple, people just looked at him very sincerely and said, "I have always thought that if you can eat and fight, you are a good man." β
Zhang Shou sat there, and when he saw Lu Sanlang playing with Ah Liu, he couldn't help but smile, and when he caught a glimpse of the dim sum in the hand of the little peanut on the side, it seemed that it was no longer the paper bag of the original Huangqiao baked cakes, and it was obviously when the people sent the dishes and dim sum, and they prepared something else very intimately, and at this moment the person still had green onions on his lips, but his eyes couldn't stop glancing at the stage, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Compared with Zhang Shou's relaxed freehand, Liu Zhiyuan stared at the bustling crowd downstairs, and when he saw a familiar figure at the door of the tea house, but was stopped, he couldn't help but stand up a little impatiently. And Zhang Kang on the side immediately realized it, and immediately gave a low order to the waiter next to him.
The waiter hurried down, and in a few moments he came up with the man who had just stopped him at the door. Liu Zhiyuan came to his senses at this time, and after nodding his head to Zhang Kang and thanking him, he beckoned someone to the front and asked directly, "What's the situation next?" β
"Sir, there are a total of thirteen booths in each hall, each booth has as little as one chef, and at most two or three. There were already twenty or thirty people lined up in front of the booth with a large number of people, and there were at least seven or eight people watching the excitement with few people. β
Liu Zhiyuan nodded slightly, without letting out too much noise in advance, such a flow of people is very normal. After all, this is a relatively remote area even in the outer city, and there are many idlers in the capital, but most people still have to work to make a living, how can they all come to see the excitement?
However, when Lu Sanlang, who had just played a scene with Ah Liuyi for a while, returned to his seat, he directly stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers out of the window, and after a while, someone came up the stairs again.
And this time, Zhang Shou recognized it at a glance, and this was clearly a prisoner he assigned to help Lu Sanlang. I saw that there were still suspicious oil stains on the side of the person's mouth at this time, probably not long after eating, and even made a loud burp as soon as he opened his mouth, and then revealed a strong smell of green onions.
The man realized his mistake in a moment, hurriedly closed his mouth, and then realized that he couldn't say anything like this, so he could only cover his mouth with his hand, and then whispered: "According to the instructions of the chief Lu Zhai, a few of us will count the number of people entering and leaving at a fixed point at several nearby street intersections. At the first street intersection north of Xinglong Tea House, the number of people entering within an hour was seventy-one, and the number of people leaving was two. β
"At the first street on the east side, the number of people who entered in an hour was sixty-two, and the number of people who left was three. At the first street on the west side, the number of people entering in an hour was forty-eight, and the number of people leaving was five......"
"By the way, among the people who left, not counting the people who followed the few folk righteous people who took the righteous action to parade through the street with the flower party at the beginning, there are seventeen people in total."
Listening to this Jiuzhangtang supervisor reported the numbers very fluently, and extended from the first street intersection in the southeast and northwest to the second street intersection in the southeast and northwest, Liu Zhiyuan, who had just let his entourage observe the flow of people, suddenly took a secret breath, and Zhang Kang, the uncle of Weinan, couldn't help but look at Lu Sanlang who was listening attentively in surprise, and then glanced at Zhang Shou.
Zhang Shou saw that there were also a lot of leaders and businessmen on the square tables around him eavesdropping, so he explained to Zhang Kang and Liu Zhiyuan with a smile: "This is a very simple way to count the heads, which can roughly calculate the flow of people attracted by an activity, especially for the remote area like the outer city, where not many people pass by, this method of counting the number of people entering and leaving is very intuitive." β
"Of course, if you were to be more precise, you could calculate the proportion of men and women among these people, whether they shop or not, and how long they stay, but that's just too manpower. Therefore, now we are just sending people to simply calculate the flow of people at the surrounding intersections as a reference. Of course, this is a very simple job, and I shouldn't need to do it again from the prison of Jiuzhang Hall. β
At this moment, Hua Siye was the first to stand up without thinking about it: "Such a simple matter, our Suzhou Hall is willing to ...... people"
Before he finished speaking, Lu Huishou of the Shandong Hall immediately quit: "Isn't it just a few people?" How many ...... do we want from Shandong Hall"
And Lu Sanlang saw that it was about to evolve into the situation when he was in Yangzhou Hall last time, so he quickly stood up and comforted: "Everyone, this kind of thing is actually boring and boring, and it is easy to make mistakes, if you are willing to do it, it is naturally better." And if you have a surplus of manpower, you can actually do one thing, and that is to count the flow of people at your booth. β
The little fat man had already been mentioned by Zhang Shou what the so-called big data was, and he seemed full of confidence at this time.
"For example, each hour is a node, count the number of onlookers at your booth, the number of food and beverage portions sold, and then record them one by one and draw them into a visual chart. Don't know what visualizations mean? Oh, this is what the teacher taught to his proud student Deng Xiaodao, but he followed the governor of Xuanda Wang out, otherwise it would not be my turn to tell you this......"
Although Lu Sanlang's explanation was a bit of a show off of knowledge, Zhang Shou saw that Liu Zhiyuan and Zhang Kang were all gradually listening attentively, not to mention many businessmen who were eager to memorize every word, so he knew that the little fat man's preaching had some practical significance.
Of course, in this era when even the operation is not standardized, what big data and what data visualization is actually a bit nonsense, but even so, he hopes to spread these things, people believe that it doesn't matter whether they believe it or not, the important thing is that as long as this is done, arithmetic has another symbolic meaning in addition to the application of the account.
So, the little fat man was giving lessons to people endlessly, but Zhang Shou said hello to Liu Zhiyuan and Zhang Kang, carried the little peanut that fascinated him to watch the play, called Ah Liu, and quietly went downstairs.
He knew that someone must have noticed his departure - after all, he had already seen several people with blank faces who were just trying to listen to the little fat man's theories, including Hua Siye, who also looked at him distractedly, but he just didn't notice it, and went on his own as usual, and when he left the gate of the tea house, he saw at a glance that the three little guys were already waiting for him outside.
Even Xiao Cheng, who was reluctant to come out before, was still dancing at this time, not to mention Yang Hao and Zheng Dang, who were full of oil. The two young men from the countryside pulled Xiao Cheng forward quickly, Yang Hao glanced at Ah Liu first, and then whispered: "Young master, the money is all gone." β
This is an unsurprising answer from Zhang Shou. In this kind of place where food gathers, just about one or two hundred yuan, three people eat, once the food rises, it is definitely not enough, he is puzzled by the fact that this money is not enough, why don't anyone come upstairs to ask him for money.
In the next moment, his doubts had been answered. Because after the grandson of Yang Laoqi scratched his head, he added in a low voice: "Later, the additional two hundred Wen that the sixth brother gave us was also spent." β
Ah Liu's brows furrowed suddenly, and his sharp gaze swept over the faces of the three little ones, and just when Zhang Shou muttered that this kid would not be stingy to this, he was almost so angry by Ah Liu's words that he was so angry that he stumbled under his feet.
"Why don't you go upstairs? No money for upstairs to eat! "There are Wei Nanbo Zhang Kang and Na Lu Little Fat Man to pay the bill!
Even Xiao Peanut, who has always worshiped Ah Liu in all aspects, was completely stupid when he heard the god-like seven words of not wanting money to eat upstairs. It was the first time he knew that Ah Liu was so obsessed with money.
However, what made him even more stupid was the stupid Zheng Dang on the side, who suddenly realized: "I knew that we would take Xiao Xiaozi upstairs to eat!" The three of us ate six of them! β
"That's enough!" Zhang Shou was very suspicious, if he hadn't just been comforted by Lu Sanlang's perfect performance upstairs and was in a very good mood, he would have been angry to death by these living treasures in the family at this time!
The only thing that is fortunate is that Xiao Cheng didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and suddenly changed the topic loudly: "Brother Zhang, the people who just escorted those people to the street with the flower party have already returned, saying that those guys have been identified and used the excuse of arresting fugitive slaves, helping people find fugitive wives, or picking up relatives to run rampant in the outer city, and they have abducted and deceived many people in the past two or three years. β
When Xiao Cheng said this, Yang Haodeng realized what he should do, and he quickly followed: "That's right, that's right, when the news came just now, there was a commotion outside for a while, especially when many people were full of food and drink, so they rushed over to see the excitement." On the street of the vegetable market, someone claimed to have lost their children or other people, and they were so angry that they almost beat those guys to death! β
Hearing this, Zhang Shou couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then asked in a deep voice, "What about later?" β
If he really allowed the so-called bitter master to beat those traffickers to death, then he had to have reservations about the working methods of the emperor's elite soldiers. But just as he thought so, he only heard Ah Liu say unhurriedly: "I have told them, it is okay for those few flower beaters to be beaten to vent their anger, but if they die, they will have to pay for their lives." β
As soon as these words came out, except for the only little peanut who didn't pay attention to that scene, everyone else couldn't help but be taken aback. Zheng Dang couldn't help but shout: "Sixth brother, could it be that you let those flower parties take them down?" β
"yes." Ah Liu replied two words very calmly, and when he saw Zhang Shou staring at him in surprise, he obviously knew that he had asked him to do it, so he said confidently, "I just subdued the Iron Cloak Gang just the day before yesterday, so naturally they should help." β
It's not appropriate for a madman to show up too much, so let the madman lead people into battle!
Although Ah Liu didn't finish his words, Zhang Shou still roughly understood what it meant. He didn't have the slightest sympathy for those traffickers, but he felt a little pitiful for the imposing Iron Gang. And when he expressed his desire to know further follow-up, Ah Liu immediately puffed out his lips and let out a sharp whistle.
Almost in the blink of an eye, an inconspicuous little man appeared in front of him. The person first cautiously glanced at Ah Liu, and then nodded and said: "Those few flower beaters are betting on the street of the vegetable market, although the crowd is angry, but our iron-clad gang also has some reputation in the outer city......
Before he could finish speaking, Ah Liu interrupted stiffly: "Tell the point." β
The little man immediately stopped his mouth like a quail pinched by his throat, and then said very obediently: "Brothers, according to the instructions of your old man, Sixth Brother, I plan to lure the snake out of the hole, and the one in the urn ...... Well, catch turtles! β
Seeing Ah Liu wave his hand and drive people away, Zhang Shou looked at Ah Liu's eyes not in surprise, but in surprise. When did Ah Liu, who has always seemed very boring, actually learn to use the art of war? Under his gaze, Ah Liu actually smiled incomprehensibly: "The madman said that as long as you don't talk and smile like this, others will make reasonable inferences and do things with your heart." β
At this moment, Zhang Shou couldn't laugh or cry. Of course, this truth is easy to understand, just like the emperor is unfathomable and the courtiers figure out the holy will. But it turns out that the so-called luring the snake out of the hole and catching the turtle in the urn is not Ah Liu's strategy at all, but the brains of the Iron Clothes Gang?
