Chapter 88: Instigation
Seeing that the sun was moving to the west, and the people queuing up in the open space were all anxious, a young man with a tall posture said a few words, and these people shouted and shouted, saying that they were bullying customers in the cow shop.
Geng Zhi hurriedly came out to explain, but his voice was quickly drowned in the wave of anger, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and shouting hoarsely, but no one listened to him.
Lu Wei heard a tsunami-like sound downstairs upstairs, stood in front of the window, and saw a few sneaky men on the periphery holding stones in their hands, squeezing into the crowd, as if they were going to throw them at Geng Zhi who was standing on the steps, and hurriedly rushed downstairs, pulled Geng Zhi over, and said, "Go." β
Geng Zhi wiped the sweat on his head and face, and said with a wry smile: "There are too many people." For a moment, his voice was hoarse.
"They are being used by people with intentions, and it is useless for you to say anything." Lu Wei stretched out his hand and slapped his hands on the wall twice, Geng Zhi thought he was angry, and was about to persuade him, when he saw two seven or eight-year-old children squeezing out of the crowd and running into the gate with a smoke.
Lu Wei pulled Geng Zhi and entered the gate.
Several men who struggled to squeeze in also wiped a handful of sweat, several people's hats were crooked, the sleeves were torn a few, and there was a footprint on one person's buttocks, and when he looked up and saw that there was no one on the steps, he quietly threw away the fist-sized stone in his hand.
The cursing was louder, and the young man with a straight posture smiled slightly, and said, "Look at the cow building, it's not kind, how can you let the guests fall and get hurt?" β
It's strange to say, his words are not high, but those who fell to the ground can hear it clearly, and more people are noisy, saying that it is not kind to see the cow building, the shop is a big bully, relying on the support of the county order, and not taking the little people in their eyes.
When the sound reached inside, Geng Zhi's forehead jumped violently, and he said angrily: "I'll go and explain it to them." After saying that, he turned around and left.
He usually has a good smile and has never been angry, but today he is really angry.
Lu Wei hurriedly grabbed it and said, "Wait a while." He said to the two seven or eight-year-old boys, "Tell me what you see." β
These two boys followed their mother to beg together since they were young, until the mother and son were taken in by Lu Wei. Boys under the age of 10 can eat at the cattle house without having to work. There were too many people here today, and Lu Wei was afraid that someone would take the opportunity to make trouble, so he asked these children to mix in the crowd and pay more attention.
These two boys are the most clever, the eldest is called Youquan, who is eight years old this year, and he told what he saw. The little one is called Shugen, and after Youquan finishes speaking, he will add that he led the three children on the periphery, and he is talking about the scene that Lu Wei saw upstairs.
Lu Wei touched the heads of the two children and said, "You eat in batches first." β
There are a lot of people today, and the guys are so busy that their feet don't touch the ground, where can they take care of eating.
Youquan and Shugen agreed and went by themselves.
The young man kept sneering, glancing at the door from time to time, and seeing that the diners were about to overturn the table with the sign, he said to the entourage next to him: "The kid surnamed Lu is just like that. β
Lu Wei walked out, completely ignoring the diners who were about to get out of control, and went straight to the young man, arched his hand with a smile, and said, "Brother Zimu, it's been a long time. β
The young man's surname is Zheng, his name is Han, and his name is Zimu. Hearing Lu Wei greet him familiarly, he was stunned for a moment and said, "You know me?" β
"Brother Zimu is so forgetful, you and I have conspired together in Yuelai Building to get drunk, how can we pretend not to know each other in person?"
Youquan begged with his mother, and met the young man many times in front of the Yuelai Building, and recognized him, but he didn't pay attention to a dirty beggar on the side of the road, and he didn't expect this boy who had been crowding around him all morning to recognize him.
Hearing the word Yuelailou, Lu Wei still didn't understand, looking at Zheng Zimu's temperament and clothing, unlike the cook guy who watched the cow building, it was very likely that he was the owner behind the scenes. Although everyone knows that the owner is always victorious, but Yuelai Lou can gain a foothold near the south gate and become the largest restaurant in Jinmingchi, without a little official background, Lu Wei does not believe it.
Which wealthy family does not have an endless stream of income under its name? Yuelai Building is so large, how can it not be supported by wealthy elites?
In addition to Lu Yuan, Lu Wei only had a grudge with Yuelai Building, that is, during the construction of Niu Lou, Lu Yuan also spoke for Chang Sheng with hatred, and he wanted to compete again.
This feud is quite big.
Lu Wei deceived like this, and saw Zheng Zimu with a contemplative expression, and after ten breaths, he shook his head and said, "Are you mistaken?" β
He thought about it, and never drank at the same table with the young man in front of him. His friends, there are no such handsome people, the young man in front of him, unforgettable, if he really drank at the same table, he will never forget.
Lu Wei almost laughed, Zheng Zimu played this hand, it can't be said that it is not poisonous, but he didn't expect him to be so naΓ―ve.
"No, alas, I think it's Lu Mou's businessman, and he hasn't put it in the eyes of Brother Zimu. I wanted to invite Brother Zimu to drink together, but now it seems that it is better not to bring humiliation on yourself. Lu Wei's face has a wonderful expression, sadness, loss, melancholy, in the lively crowd, but more and more lonely, thin body, independent.
Zheng Zimu felt that he was a sinner, how could he hurt the young man deeply? He slapped his forehead hard and said, "This, that, I don't remember very well, I may have forgotten." β
When he fell from his horse at the age of thirteen, his memory was so bad that his father felt that he had no hope in the imperial examination, so he handed over several good properties to him, and Yuelai Lou was one of them.
Lu Wei resisted the urge to laugh, let Zheng Zimu call again and again, still covered his face with his sleeves, turned around and left.
Zheng Zimu first talked to Lu Wei, and then lost his soul, no instructions were transmitted, and those family members who were mixed in the crowd did not receive orders, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
After all, after waiting in line for a long time, it will be their turn in a while, and no one will really give up at this time. Besides, it was not the people who watched the cow tower who overthrew themselves, and they couldn't blame others.
Four men carried two cauldrons out of the door and placed them on the steps, and two others carried a basket of bowls and placed them beside the cauldron.
Lu Wei stood on the steps, made a circle, and said loudly: "Look at the reopening of the Niulou today, thank you for coming to the service, there are a lot of people, so that the day is past noon, the guests have not yet lined up to the seat, look at the Niulou to express gratitude, specially made hot soup, invite the guests to warm their stomachs." β
"Hot soup?"
"Look at the cow building, it is really a good family."
The diners suddenly rejoiced, and the flattery was like a tide, so that the young man almost vomited blood, and gave a bowl of hot soup to drink. Is it so easy to get the name of a good person?
As soon as Lu Wei's words fell, the guys had already begun to scoop the hot soup, and the aroma wafted over.
