Volume 2 Tokyo Hua Menglu Chapter 55 Sun Tu miscalculated

As soon as these words came out, let alone those Tong family slaves, Wu Lidu showed an expression of disbelief. He knew very well how wrong what he had done, and he only hoped that the second son could be dealt with lightly, and never thought that he could really be exempt from punishment, or even that nothing had happened.

But what surprised them even more was that Tong Mu was slightly stunned and showed a thoughtful look: "It's not impossible. Wu Li, are you willing to mend your ways? "It's really going to give him a great chance.

Shopkeeper Wu only stayed for a moment, then knelt down again, and replied with tears in his eyes: "Second son, the little one is guilty, if you can really give the little one a chance to make amends, the little one will definitely do his best to run Liufangju in the future, and he will not dare to do such a thing, otherwise he will make the little one thunder and thunder, and he will not die well!" ”

Seeing this, Tong Mu walked up to him, helped him up, and said with relief: "Shopkeeper Wu, you don't have to be like this, I know that you were only forced by someone before, and you were confused for a while to do such a thing." After all, you have been an old man of my Tong family for many years, and I believe that you will be able to run Liufangju well. ”

These words made the shopkeeper Wu grateful, and he swore again with tears in his eyes. Sun Tu watched from the side, and showed a hint of a smile, Tong Mu was just benevolent and not stupid, obviously immediately understood his intentions.

In fact, this time he found out that the disadvantages in Liufangju were just a problem for Tong Mu, and it was far from the time to solve the problem. How to deal with Wu Li is not easy to do, if it is light, it is not enough to convince the public, and if it is heavy, it will leave a harsh impression, which is contrary to what he has always been; Second, this matter also involves Zhou Yun, and the next thing is even more tricky, after all, they are cousins in name, so they can't turn their heads against each other because of this little thing, right?

The last and most critical point is that once this matter is really revealed, how will Tong Guan look at him? He handed Liufangju into Tong Mu's hands, but you actually let people make such a scandal under your nose, does it prove your incompetence?

After considering these points, Sun Tu came up with such a cold treatment method. As long as the matter is temporarily suppressed, not only can the imminent problems be covered up, but at the same time, they can completely gain Wu Li's loyalty, so that Liufangju will naturally be under their control, and Zhou Yun will inevitably fail if he wants to do anything. In the end, this also ensured Tong Mu's benevolent name, which can really be regarded as a good countermeasure to kill birds with one stone.

Tong Mu comforted Wu Li a few more words, and then said: "But shopkeeper Wu, the business of Liufangju is really not good now, and some changes must be made." Saburo does have the ability to help you, so ......"

"The little one naturally obeys the meaning of the second son, and also listens to the grandson." This time, Wu Li didn't dare to object, and immediately responded to the matter. In his opinion, Sun Tu can be regarded as a benefactor who saved himself, of course, he has to give the other party enough faces.

After hearing this, Sun Tu also smiled: "In the final analysis, the experience of running Liufangju is still far inferior to that of Wu's shopkeeper, and I hope we can cooperate well in the future and make the business prosperous." That was exactly what he wanted to see, and it was much better than taking the opportunity to take him off and set up another shopkeeper. Otherwise, if someone else comes, not only will the ability not be enough, but he will also have to worry about letting Zhou Yun find an opportunity to take advantage of.

But this Wu shopkeeper is different, if you are guilty, you have to be careful about what you do in the future, and you will naturally cooperate much more smoothly. This is the way of employing people, sometimes employing people does not necessarily have to use those with noble character, the water is clear, there are no fish, and there are no disciples when people are checked.

After appeasing the shopkeeper Wu and agreeing with him that Sun Tu would come over tomorrow to rectify the affairs of the restaurant, Tong Mu finally got up and left. After coming outside, he specially told the house slaves: "You must not spread this matter, if you let me know that someone has spread the word about today's matter, I will not spare you!" ”

The house slaves hurriedly bowed their heads, although they didn't understand why the second son made this decision, but they didn't have the courage to question it, let alone risk it.

The next morning, after returning from horse training outside the city, Sun Tu came directly to Liufangju, where business was still deserted, and there were no customers to be seen. Even though the drinks were intercepted yesterday, the price of alcohol outside is still much lower than here.

Seeing Sun Tu coming to the door, Wu Li hurriedly ran out to greet him, with a little worry on his face: "Sun Gongzi, do you think we can really do a good job?" He didn't sleep all night last night, and his mind was constantly thinking about how to atone for his sins, but he didn't have a clue.

As a long-time shopkeeper who has been running a restaurant for many years, Wu Li knows how difficult it is to regain the recognition of customers in a hotel that has been deserted, because drinkers have habits, and once they get used to where to eat and drink, they will always go. Coupled with people's herd mentality, seeing that their own Liufangju is so deserted, everyone will think that the wine and food in this restaurant are not good, so they don't even have the idea of giving it a try.

Sun Tu looked quite confident: "Of course, I have my own way to make our restaurant's business better." As he spoke, he sat down at a table and said to a few men who were still standing there with a surprised expression, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Grab some of our specialty drinks and I'll try them. ”

These people really didn't expect that the attitude of Shopkeeper Wu would change completely in just a few days, so they looked at Sun Tu a little strangely. It wasn't until they saw him say this, and then Wu Li also urged, that they hurriedly agreed and went to the back kitchen to prepare wine and food. Their status is low, and they dare not ask the inside story of this matter.

Soon, a few dishes and two pots of wine were delivered to Sun Tu's table one by one. Although these dishes are only made by simple steaming and other techniques, they also have their own uniqueness, Sun Tu only ate a few bites, and then nodded again and again: "These dishes are good, especially this fish soup, which is even more delicious, but it is not something that can be eaten in ordinary stores." ”

Shopkeeper Wu nodded again and again: "What Sun Gongzi said is that these dishes are all specialties in our building, but the price is also higher." If you try this wine again, Gyokuro and Yuhu Chunke are both good wines in our building, and they are also somewhat famous in the city of Tokyo. ”

Sun Tu nodded, then poured a cup of jade dew and tasted it first.

He has rarely drunk since he crossed over, and he has not drunk a drop since he came to Tokyo, the reason for this is because Sun Tu knows that his body has not fully grown, and it is always good not to drink; The second is that he does not have much hope for the wine of the Great Song Dynasty, and in his opinion, the wine at this time cannot even compare with the bulk liquor of later generations, and there is really no point in drinking.

However, when he tasted the cup of gyokuro, his original prejudice was immediately overturned. I only feel that this wine is soft in the mouth, sweet and sweet, although it is not as strong as the distilled spirits of later generations, but the taste is not worse than those high-end wines thousands of years later!

This surprised Sun Tu, and his expression became solemn. Hurriedly poured another cup of jade pot spring and took a sip, and then his face became more and more ugly, because he found that this wine was more mellow than the jade dew, and the aftertaste was endless!

After all, I underestimated the ancients, thinking that the wine thousands of years ago was sour and unpleasant, and even the cheapest bulk wine in later generations could not be compared. Now he knows how biased he is.

Sun Tu did take it for granted in this matter, because the wine he had been exposed to in Yuncheng County before was very poor, so he thought that the wine of the Great Song Dynasty was like this. But in fact, everything in Yuncheng and Tokyo is very far apart, how can the wine in the famous restaurants in the capital be bad?

But in this way, it is difficult to do what I thought could be done easily. Sun Tu originally planned to take out the wine from the warehouse to replace the original wine of Liufangju, so as to turn the situation around. But now, I can't get my hands on my bad wine, but how is this good?

Seeing Sun Tu's complexion change several times after drinking the wine, Wu Li couldn't help but become a little nervous: "Sun Gongzi, is there anything wrong with this wine?" ”

Sun Tu came back to his senses and smiled bitterly: "The wine is all good wine, so naturally there is no problem." ”

"Then I wonder if you have any good ways to change the current situation?"

When he asked him this, Sun Tu's face turned red again, and in the end he could only say vaguely: "This, let me think about it again." "I've been too big, but now it's a difficult situation to ride a tiger, but what should I do?
