After getting Zhou Yi's support, Li Siwu and they were also relieved, in order to be worthy of Zhou Yi's trust, Li Siwu did not dare to slack off for a moment, he personally tasted every bucket of milk, and only sent it to Zhou Yi after confirming the pure taste, and left it with a slight flaw, according to the method taught to him by Zhou Yi, boiled it and added sugar to eat, and found that it was also very delicious.

With such a heartfelt person and such strict requirements, Zhou Yi's milk did not go wrong, after a period of operation, Daguan Tea House seems to have regained its previous popularity, in order to allow more people to enjoy milk tea, Zhou Yi took the initiative to reduce the price by half, so that more people can afford it. And Zhou Yi was inspired by those who brought buckets to buy milk tea, and invented the filling of milk tea, which was sold in gourd bottles, although the price was slightly more expensive, but it could be carried around, but it was more popular with those who walked.

As time passed, Zhou Yi gradually put this matter in his heart, and his life has always been happy and fulfilling.

Until early one morning, Li Siwu came again, and when he saw Zhou Yi, he immediately knelt on the ground, wept bitterly, and shouted loudly: "Young master, Xiao Di is incompetent, after preparing his own milk today, when Xiao Di took someone to another house to get milk, the house was stolen, and all the milk was spilled." I'm ......ashamed that I didn't protect them properly."

Hearing about the theft of Li Siwu's home, Zhou Yi's first thought in his heart was that the thief was so tasteless to steal a mud leg.

After hearing Li Siwu say that the milk was gone, he realized that these people were coming at him at all.

"It seems that the other party is finally going to act?" Zhou Yi raised his head slightly to look at the still gray sky, and muttered in a low voice.

He said to Li Siwu: "What are you doing, you have been working so hard recently, and I am still thinking about how to reward you, this time I was robbed, did your old man get hurt?" ”

Hearing that Zhou Yi didn't even mention milk, but cared about himself first, Li Siwu was so moved, if there was a little ink in his stomach, maybe he would have to say a few words heroically and die or something.

"Young master, when the thieves in the house came, Xiao Di was not at home, so he escaped the catastrophe, but it was a pity that those milk ......"

Zhou Yi interrupted him with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, don't say anything like that, I'll rest assured if you're in good health, milk is a small thing, anyway, it's every day, just bring the rest of the milk to me, don't blame yourself too much, after all, your body is important." ”

It was good to say that Li Siwu would be sent away, and Zhou Yi hurriedly called someone to inform the dart masters, as long as he found an unfamiliar face nearby, he would first catch the twist and send it to the Daguan Tea House to be tortured by himself.

A large net was quietly spread, just waiting for the mysterious figure to be caught.

A few days later, on the first day of the fifth month, there are still four days before the Dragon Boat Festival, and many families start preparing zongzi early.

Zongzi, known as "horned millet in ancient times", is said to be spread for the sacrifice of Qu Yuan who threw himself into the river, and on that day they sent zongzi to each other as a commemoration. In addition, zongzi is also the traditional food with the deepest cultural accumulation in Chinese history so far. According to records, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the corn was wrapped in mushroom leaves into a horn-shaped, called "horned millet"; Rice packed in a bamboo tube is sealed and baked, called "tube dumplings".

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, soak millet rice in grass and wood ash water, because the water contains alkali, wrap millet rice into a quadrangular shape with mushroom leaves, cook, and call Guangdong alkaline water dumplings.

In the Jin Dynasty, zongzi was officially designated as the food of the Dragon Boat Festival. At this time, in addition to glutinous rice, the raw materials for wrapping zongzi are also added with traditional Chinese medicine nootropic kernels, and the cooked zongzi is called "nootropic zongzi".

The rice is adulterated with ** meat, chestnut, red dates, red beans, etc., and the varieties increase. Zongzi is also used as a gift for socializing.

In the Tang Dynasty, the rice used for zongzi was "white as jade", and its shape appeared conical and diamond-shaped. It is said that there is a record of "Tang zongzi" in this document.

In the Song Dynasty, there were already "candied dumplings", that is, fruits into the dumplings. The poet Su Dongpo has the verse "When I see bayberry in the zongzi". At this time, there were also advertisements made of stacked pavilions, wooden carts, cattle and horses with zongzi, indicating that it was very fashionable to eat zongzi in the Song Dynasty.

In order to cater to the festival, Zhou Yi has been working on the development of new products.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, Zhou Yi had just opened, but he saw a tightly sealed ox cart escorted by a team of people to Daguan Tea House.

Entering the Daguan Tea Shop through the back door, Zhou Yi, who had already received the news, dismissed everyone and took them into the cellar that had just been built, the cellar was all made of rocks, but the entrance was not in the backyard, not only very solid, but also very secretive, the most important thing is that there are some exquisite mechanisms, although not fatal or complicated, but enough.

Walking to the cellar, Zhou Yi carefully looked at the person they caught, although he was dressed as an ordinary farmer, his body was very clean, and he lifted off the black cloth covering his head, and what appeared was a fairly handsome face, but a centipede-like scar from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose destroyed a lot of beauty. He was expressionless, staring at Zhou Yi without saying a word.

"Listen to my people, you've been walking around my territory a lot lately, brother, which way are you going?" Zhou Yi sat on the only chair here, looked at the young man, and said coldly.

The clay figure still has three points to rise, Rao is Zhou Yi boasted that his temper was not bad, and he couldn't bear it in the face of this repeated provocation.

The man didn't snort.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but be depressed, why did he meet such people? Can't you talk well? If you don't even answer a question, will you be able to play happily together in the future?

"Brother, is it okay to cooperate a little? It's hard for me to do you like this, so you just say something and make everyone happy, okay? ”

“……”

After much persuasion, the man who was arrested finally spoke.

"I'm ......"

Spit on Zhou Yi and spit on Xingzi.

"......" Zhou Yi suddenly had nothing to say, and kicked this person's knee, and the two people behind him pressed him to kneel heavily on the ground.

"Lao Tzu is talking to you seriously, even if you don't recruit you, you will squeak, you are very boring to make such a statement, by the way, Master Sun, come over for a while."

There are four dart masters who came, two people are holding people on the left and one on the right, and the other two prevent him from suddenly running away, one of them is surnamed Sun, fifty years old, and has been a dart master for thirty years, and he is already a senior person in the industry.

"Young Master Zhou, what are your orders?"

Zhou Yi said lightly: "Go find a few needles, the kind that is very thin and thin, the smallest sewing needle, just ask my sister to get it, and say that I let me go." ”

"Needle? Young Master Zhou, do you want to? ”

"If you want to go, you will go, and you will know what to do later."

Soon, Master Sun got the needle that Zhou Yi needed, and this kind of needle was almost as thick as a few hairs, and it was basically invisible when thrown on the ground.

After getting the needle, Zhou Yi sneered at the arrested person a few times, and said: "It fell into my hands, and no one didn't recruit it, I want to see how long you can hold on." ”

The arrested man's face changed slightly, and he shouted, "What do you want to do? Lynching is illegal! ”

Zhou Yi was not afraid at all, and said: "I am a scholar, so I naturally know this, but the law also has to pay attention to evidence, and I can't break the law as soon as you say that I have broken the law." In this, there are only a few of us, even if you are called out of the throat, you can't hear it, as long as I don't leave a wound on you, then what can you do to me? ”

"You're a demon."

Zhou Yi laughed: "Demon? Well, I like this title, yes, I am a demon, I have always believed that people are not ruthless, they cannot stand firmly, and their compassion cannot move anyone except themselves. In the face of opponents, it is necessary to ruthlessly trample and crush, so that it will be done once and for all, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is the king, the wildfire is inexhaustible, and the spring breeze blows and gives birth to such a stupid thing will never happen to me. ”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present shuddered a little, where did this look like the words of a young man under the age of twenty!

Zhou Yi pinched the needle and said, "I'll give you one last chance, if you don't say who assigned you here, then don't blame me for being rude." ”

This is said domineeringly, but in exchange for only silence,

Zhou Yi darkened his face and said coldly: "I have already given you one last chance, since you still decided not to say it, then don't blame me for being rude, I hope you will not regret this stupid decision of your own." Master Sun, help me grab his left hand with the palm up. ”

Although he didn't understand what Zhou Yi was going to do, Master Sun, in line with the moral code of "taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others", grabbed his right hand like a vice, and grabbed his palm and stretched it out in front of Zhou Yi, no matter how much he struggled, he still couldn't move.

Zhou Yi praised his strength, he gently pinched the needle, then pinched the person's index finger with his left hand, and inserted the needle from the center of the thread of his finger without hesitation.

As the so-called ten fingers are connected to the heart, there are many acupuncture points on the hands, and after being acupuncture like this, the pain of the cone heart can not stand even if it is an iron man. Looking at the painful expression on this person's face, even a person like Master Sun, who had licked blood on the knife edge, seemed to feel a little chill in his heart.

Zhou Yi slowly turned the needle inserted, or maybe pulled out a little bit, every movement could be exchanged for an earth-shattering scream.

After playing for a while, Zhou Yi took out the needle, looking at the person who was tortured by himself to the point of prostration, Zhou Yi felt very satisfied with the effect of his first torture.

"How? Is it comfortable? You see, I told you a long time ago, where will there be a wound? ”

He had a smile on his face, but this smile made everyone dare not look at him directly. He had tortured his fingers, but he couldn't see any change.

There was no response to his question, and when he raised the needle in his hand again, someone finally answered his question: "I recruit, I recruit all." ”
