Chapter 68: Tongjitang
After a few days of negotiations, under the double pressure of Yang Juan's lure and threat, Qin Jingfang decisively broke away from Yu Mingyu's thief ship and agreed to reconcile.
Of course, Su Baiyi understood that although Yang Juan and Ye An had broken off their relationship, they could put pressure on Qin Jingfang this time, after all, they still borrowed the name of Ye Tinggui, a criminal officer in Henan.
Qin Jingfang knew the relationship between Yang Juan and Ye An, and he was afraid that something would really happen at that time, so it was better to get off the donkey at this time.
Just agreed!
Anyway, for Qin Jingfang, he just wanted to get the secret recipe and then revive the business of Zuiyue Tower.
Naturally, for the cunning Qin Realm Fang, there is only one chance, and if you don't take advantage of this time to make a lot of money, it will really be a waste of opportunity. Therefore, when talking about the conditions, it is not so fair compared to Su Baiyi and Sun San.
However, it was an unequal treaty from the beginning, and Su Baiyi had no choice but to obey it.
But when things got to Sun San, an old guy, something went wrong.
Yang Juan had told him with certainty before that if he didn't open the joints, his son Brother Xun would have to work in prison for a year before he could come out.
Now Qin Jingfang agreed to release him immediately, but the conditions were very harsh.
The first is to ask for money, Sun San's son wants to subsidize other people's families because he has injured people, Qin Jingfang is two hundred taels of silver, and it will not be possible to do it without one.
The second recipe is that Sun San wants to completely hand over all the recipes of the eighteen big dishes hanging in front of his shop to Qin Jingfang.
This time, Sun San disagreed.
Not to mention that the Sun family can't take out two hundred taels of silver in one go, even if they can take it out now, can they make money in the Year of the Monkey?
Two hundred taels, in any place in Guide Mansion, you can buy fifty acres of good fertile land.
And there are recipes!
If Zuiyuelou takes away this recipe for stir-frying, what will his Sun Ji Restaurant do?
How will the rest of the day be?
Isn't it just to let my son squat in a prison cell for a year?
It's worth it!
When Sun San threw out his thoughts, Su Baiyi was silent for a while.
He doesn't blame himself for being greedy for money, to be honest, the life of the common people in the Ming Dynasty is not easy, he has personally experienced it, Sun San would rather let his son suffer for a year, and would rather send food to prison every day to keep his own industry, which he can understand better than anyone else.
After hearing Sun San's decision, Grandma Sun burst into tears, pulling his shirt and insisting on getting her son out of prison. Sun San, who hadn't been angry in front of his wife for decades, actually pushed her for the first time, and scolded and scolded: "Get it out, the family business is gone, and if you get out your son, you can't let him eat and drink fire!"
Let him suffer in prison for a year, and when he comes out, the old man will give him a decent family business, which one is good and which is not, you can't figure it out? ”
Yang Juan looked sad beside him, and said persuasively: "That, teacher, senior brother!" He bowed to Su Baiyi's door than Sun Sanhou, and it was naturally good to shout to Senior Brother like this: "If you are really tight on money, I, junior brother, can give you some first!" ”
"No need, that's all!" Sun San waved his hand at Yang Juan and received his heart, but he was still stubborn. Seeing Su Baiyi who didn't have any expression next to him, he hurriedly saluted him and said in a low voice: "Let me sir, you have a smile, the disciple is not stingy with money, I am all for the good of Brother Xun, and I ask Mr. for permission." ”
It is somewhat profitable to open a restaurant, but the family is far from having as many as two hundred taels. Even if Yang Juan takes out the money, but in the end, this is owed to others, and he will have to pay it back sooner or later.
When the time comes, the recipe will be lost, the people will be gone, and the livelihood will be gone, what will you pay back to others?
"I don't have a problem." Su Baiyi frowned and said, "It's strange that the teacher can't protect you if he doesn't have the ability, but have you thought about it?"
Why did Qin Jingfang arrest Brother Xun? What is his purpose?
Now that he is willing to compromise and you are not, can he give up? I'm afraid that in the end, you will not only have to agree to his conditions, but also have Brother Xun suffer some flesh and skin. ”
Sun San's face twitched a few times, and finally gritted his teeth: "Disciple province!" It's just that he, Qin Jingfang, connived at covering the sky with one hand, would he dare to harm my son's life? ”
"Then he wouldn't dare!" Su Baiyi replied decisively.
Although Qin Jingfang has a lot of power in this matter and has the absolute initiative, he may be able to do something to kill people for money in other places.
But where is this?
This is Guide Mansion, and the back of the small city hides the eyes of countless bigwigs.
Qin Youde is still careful not to hurt the heavens and reason, not to mention that he Qin Jingfang, it is already the limit to be able to design Brother Xun.
"That's fine!" Sun San patted the table and said, "I have suffered this child for a year, and after a year, I will give him a family business." I believe that Brother Xun will not complain about me as a father! ”
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!
Su Baiyi sighed deep in his heart, shook his head and left Sun Ji Restaurant with Yang Juan.
There are some things that still can't be done.
It's not that he didn't think about finding Zhou Shipu, but this matter was designed by Qin Jingfang seamlessly, Brother Xun hurt people in the end, and it was still very inappropriate for Zhou Lao to come forward so unfounded.
"Old man, he loves money, I'm sorry!"
It was not easy to talk about it in Sun Ji Restaurant just now, but now when he came out and walked on the street, Yang Juan couldn't help it left and right, spit out a mouthful of saliva, and vented his dissatisfaction and opinions fiercely.
Su Baiyi smiled.
Yang Juan asked, "What?" Didn't I say that he would rather keep his little money than let Brother Xun squat in prison for a year? ”
"He's not a lover of money!" Su Baiyi took a breath, rarely serious, "I still didn't misunderstand him, if Sun San is greedy for money, he will take advantage of the relationship between you and me, accept your help, and borrow money from you to save his son."
He doesn't want you to help him, which means that he is not a money-grubber. ”
"What about him?" Yang Juan was still unconvinced.
"Maybe it's a father's responsibility, right?" Su Baiyi's eyes narrowed, and he walked forward as he spoke, and couldn't help but think of his father in his previous life.
I remember that once when I was a child, I fell into the water, and my father watched from the side, allowing Su Baiyi to drink a stomach full of water and was indifferent; He never helped him when he fell; When he was beaten by other children, he never helped; When he went to college, there was no tuition, and he didn't give a penny.
Even, when he graduated from college and couldn't find a job, the old man, as a business tycoon, just looked at it, no matter whether he asked, as if he had never had this son.
It wasn't until later, when the old man retired, that he said earnestly: I don't dare to help you, I'm afraid that you won't be able to get up by yourself after I'm gone, I don't dare to help you, I'm afraid that one day without me, you won't be able to fight those thieves. I just wanted to leave you something in the time I could.
Su Baiyi knew that what he was doing was definitely not money, not the 30 billion left by the old man!
His father and Sun San may want to leave different things for their son, but there may be no difference in the responsibility of being a father.
"That's right!" Su Baiyi said again: "Don't follow me, you still have to find a way to help him when you go back, I guess, this matter is not over yet, I don't know when there will be some chaos again." ”
"I know......" Yang Juan waved his hand: "Where are you going?" ”
After all, Su Baiyi had offended Qin Jingfang, and Yang Juan was really afraid that he would be blackmailed by the surnamed Qin.
Su Baiyi was not afraid, he waved his hand, walked south without looking back, and said happily: "Don't worry about me, I want to think about how to blow up these dogs, I want to ...... quietly"
"Oh......" Yang Juan nodded, and then wondered to himself: "Who is Jingjing?" ”
Su Baiyi, who was in front, heard this, and almost fell to the ground.
Your sister, this paragraph, did it exist in the Ming Dynasty?
……
Turn around Xiaoqi Street, go west from Xiaoyushou Street to the east gate of Defu and enter Binyang Gate, and then go south along Zhongzhou Street, after passing through the Gongyang Gate of the South Gate, there is a large green lake on both sides of the road. The tall trees on both sides of the bank stand tall, and the barren grass is separated, which is quite a bit of quaint.
Looking south from Gongyang Gate, a building complex located in the middle of the South Lake is particularly eye-catching, the breeze comes slowly, the water waves rise slightly, that group of wooden buildings are set against the backdrop of the water waves, like the fairy palace in the water, there is a kind of transcendent meaning.
This is Wenzheng Academy!
The predecessor of Wenzheng Academy was the famous Yingtian Academy, earlier Wang Yangming's mind was prevalent, and the atmosphere of lecturing became a common practice, when Zhang Juzheng monopolized power, and hated these scholars and academies who criticized the government for no reason.
In the seventh year of Wanli, an order was issued in the name of the imperial court to demolish almost all the academies (not schools) in the Ming Dynasty, and the famous Yingtian Academy, the head of the four major academies in China, did not escape the doom and was demolished.
Later, Zhang Juzheng fell, and Zheng Sanjun, the prefect of Guide, rebuilt on the basis of Yingtian Academy and built the "Fan Wenzheng Lecture Academy".
Fan Wenzheng Public Lecture Institute, also known as Wenzheng Academy.
Of course, Su Baiyi came today, but the purpose was not this Laoshizi Wenzheng Academy, he didn't want the imperial examination, and this thing had nothing to do with him at all.
Walk along the lake path to the south, south of the lake, is a clean and high-end business district.
On the west side near the end of Zhongzhou Road, a tall two-story brick and wood structure is in sight, and the little medicine boy Magpie is sitting bored by the stone steps outside the door, thinking about things with his cheeks, and suddenly sees Su Baiyi dressed in white.
"Ah, Su Baiyi, why did you run here!" The magpie was still very happy to see Su Baiyi, and suddenly jumped up from the steps and ran over like this.
"No rules!" Su Baiyi raised her right hand and burst a pimple on her head, and said teasingly: "Your young lady calls me sir, you should be the same as Brother Xun, call me ancestor, Su Baiyi Su Baiyi, no big or small!" ”
"Cut, no, you can deceive our husband, eh, miss, but you can't deceive me, you guy, you are a big-tailed wolf who can talk big. Say, what do you want to do today? The little girl's fingers stretched out and pointed straight at Su Baiyi's head, leaving him speechless for a while.
"Didn't your young lady ask me to help give this new medicine shop a name, you see, I brought it!" Su Baiyi flicked his sleeves, took out a piece of rice paper from it, slowly unfolded it and put it in front of the magpie, and wrote three words "Tongjitang" on it
