Zheng Liu's eyes turned, he thought about it, and said: "Today, the other six brothers are here, Yuan Yi has the courage to worship together, big brother, don't you think everyone is happy like this?" ”

"Hahaha, Brother Xian is really arrogant, you and I are brothers, naturally you and my siblings are also brothers, so we will worship together." Tong Zhibai saw that he was bowing, and the brothers were slightly embarrassed, and Zheng Liuyi said this, which was in the middle of it.

Immediately, the remaining six brothers of the Tong family also knelt down together and swore an oath in unison.

Zheng Liuyi woke up suddenly, no, there are many people, and the risk is greater. In the event that one of them dies violently and dies on the same day, he is afraid that he will live a shorter life.

Taking advantage of the large number of people, the Tong family brothers in the oath were changed to the Sharpshooter Society. Zheng Liuyi is confident that as long as he doesn't let it disperse, this magic spear will definitely get bigger and bigger in his hands.

Everyone reported their age, but Zheng Liuyi was the youngest, four years younger than Tong Zigong, and ranked eighth.

It's really more popular than people, and the seven brothers of the Tong family can't help but sigh that they have lived so many years longer, and they have all lived on dogs.

When everyone came to the parlor after worshipping, their subordinates had already served wine and food. The seven brothers of the Tong family have worked hard in the rivers and lakes for many years, and they all drink a lot of wine, and Zheng Liuyi is far worse than them.

Everyone respected his martial arts skills, and secondly, they cherished his young age, and they did not persuade him to drink too much. After three rounds of drinking, Zheng Liuyi was overwhelmed by the strength of alcohol and ate with his head covered.

Although the dishes of this era are mainly steamed and cooked, there is no spicy taste, but the beef and mutton are stewed very well, and the feeling of eating meat is very good, but eating too much meat is really greasy and panicked, Zheng Liuyi: "Big brother, do you have vegetarian dishes?" ”

"Brother Xian, our people in the rivers and lakes pay attention to drinking in large bowls, eating meat in large pieces, and serving vegetarian dishes, isn't it the way of hospitality?" Tong Zhibai picked up the wine and raised it to Zheng Liuyi, raised his head and drank it, then grabbed a piece of mutton and chewed it.

Seeing that Zheng Liuyi's stomach spasmed, he couldn't help but burp and let out a sigh of relief, no matter how delicious the meat is, it has to be balanced and nutritious, right? So he said: "They are all their own brothers, and there is no need to be formal." Little brother, I want to change the taste, is there any Xia Xiang tofu? ”

"Brother Xian's mouth is really tricky, this dish is really hard to find." Tong Zhibai turned around and instructed his subordinates: "Go to the opposite Wuxiangju to ask for a piece of Xia Xiang tofu, don't get cold." ”

Xia Xiang is a small green cabbage, people in this era do not like cabbage radish, there is no large-scale planting, it is often eaten in the Thorn History Mansion, and it is not common outside.

Zheng Liuyi has never cooked, how did he know that tofu was still rare in this era, and he couldn't help but become interested in tofu.

In modern times, there are various ways to make tofu, steamed tofu, fried tofu, stuffed tofu, plus edamame tofu, stinky tofu, dried tofu, tofu skin, it can be said that there is everything, I don't know what this era will make tofu like, it should not be inferior to the fragrant small pot tofu, right?

Suddenly, Xia Xiang's tofu was served on the table, and Zheng Liuyi couldn't wait to get off the chopstick, but the tofu broke as soon as he clamped it. Fortunately, the rest of the people are not elegant people, and the food looks more ugly than the other, Zheng Liuyi is no longer polite, and pulls a piece of tofu into his mouth with a bowl, but he almost vomits.

A smell of okara.

Zheng Liuyi immediately suddenly realized, how could he forget this stubble!

Historically, tofu became popular as a dish in the Song Dynasty, mainly because the early tofu production technology was immature, the yield was low, and the taste was poor, so it rarely came to the table of the common people. In the early days of Chinese tofu, gypsum water was stirred into raw soybean milk to make the soybean milk coagulate into tofu, although the tofu was lumpy, but not solid. Some workshops are afraid of waste, and the bean dregs are reluctant to filter out, and the tofu they make is naturally even more difficult to swallow.

Zheng Liuyi gritted his teeth and ate a few bites, but he couldn't eat it anymore, so he put the tofu aside and asked, "Big brother, I see that you have a lot of people, I don't know what everyone does on weekdays?" ”

"Our brother opened a tavern called Wuxiangju, just across the street from our yard." Speaking of this, Tong Zhibai's face showed a little shame, and then said: "There is also the brother of the gang who comes to our territory and collects some protection money. Taken together, there are barely enough for the brothers to live. ”

I didn't expect the spear to be strong and strong, and he lived so aggrieved. Zheng Liuyi: "Brothers' lives are too difficult, and they still need to open doors and increase income." The little brother has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not? ”

"Brother Xian, if you have something to say, just say it!" Tong Zhibai has also had enough of a hard life, and when he heard what Zheng Liuyi said, he couldn't help but have his eyes shining.

"As the saying goes, if a tree dies, a man lives. Our brothers are all excellent in martial arts, but we can't just stare at the place at our doorstep. No matter how much or how little we charge for protection, I'm afraid that those merchants on the street will still scold you behind your back. ”

Tong Zhibai's face stiffened, and then he nodded: "They are all neighbors, and it's really hard to start." ”

"Have you ever thought that we can escort caravans for big merchants, whether it is Jingzhou or Qingzhou, wherever you send it, you can give the silver, so that the merchants are willing to pay the money, and we can collect the money justifiably, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Tong Zhibai slapped his thigh and said, "That's right! It's the right way to collect protection money like this, why didn't I think of it! ”

He got up excitedly and walked back and forth a few steps, shook his head and said, "It's still not good, the big merchants have their own guards, such as Caiyun Buzhuang, and their caravans are all extraordinary." ”

It turns out that the goods of the big merchants are escorted by themselves, and there is no dart game in this era, Zheng Liuyi couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart, a trick to eat all over the sky knows no, it seems that this Tong boss is playing with guns and playing stupid, so he said: "Big brother, don't be impatient." After all, there are a few large merchants who can escort goods, and most merchants still have this demand, and besides, large merchants also have insufficient manpower. Chengdu City is commercially developed, open a bodyguard shop, and keep you to earn a lot of money. ”

"What, darts... Dart line? The seven brothers' eyes widened together.

"That's right, it's a dart!" Zheng Liuyi stood up and said loudly: "From now on, we can send capable brothers to set up a team to escort goods to people, and earn money to support our families with our skills, and no longer have to bully the neighbors and collect protection money from Na Laoshi, what do you think?" ”

In addition to Tong Zhibai, the seven brothers of the Tong family and more than a dozen of their subordinates responded in unison: "This dare is good, don't go to collect protection money again, you can't open your mouth!" ”

"Big brother, what about you?" Zheng Liuyi looked at Tong Zhibai.

"Everyone agreed, and I naturally have no opinion." Tong Zhibai saw that the crowd was excited, so he nodded heavily.

In fact, Tong Zhibai has been seeking a way to survive for the public, but he can't find a way. Zheng Liuyi's method, he agreed with it from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, our sharpshooter club will change its name to the sharpshooter dart bureau from today, and put out a sign to attract business all over the world, what do you think?" Zheng Liuyi was excited, and he had already forgotten his oath of life and death with the spear.

"Then it's called a sharpshooter." Tong Zhibai is loyal and righteous, he is really not suitable for the underworld, and he has long been tired of being poked in the backbone by the neighbors, so he was the first to agree, "Whether it succeeds or not, it depends on your virtuous brother!" ”

Zheng Liuyi smiled slightly: "It will be done, it will be done, not to mention that I still have a backhand!" ”
