Chapter 35: Defending the Ducks

Since its opening, business has been smooth, not counting the sales of VIP cards and pre-order crispy roast duck, the daily turnover of the store is hundreds of taels of silver, and it is only the case in the most glorious days of the past. Shopkeeper Wu is busy and excited almost every day, and when he closes the door at night, he always habitually sighs, "Master Tai is blessed by the spirit of heaven, so that the Liang family meets Han Gongzi, and there is hope for revival!" ”

Shopkeeper Wu is loyal and diligent for the Liang family and Yuelaiju, and he is very meticulous in his work, so Han Fei basically does not participate in the daily affairs of the restaurant.

In the past two days, several groups of merchants have come, saying that they are coming from neighboring counties, specifying that they want to order crispy roast ducks, and the number has reached thousands. At the beginning, the shopkeeper Wu was a little worried, afraid that the supply capacity of roast duck would be insufficient. However, the merchants in the neighboring counties begged each other softly, and the price was high, and the most important thing was that they all promised to supply in batches within ten days, and the shopkeeper Wu made up his mind to sign the agreement.

Although the merchants in the neighboring counties have added a clause to the agreement, and they will be compensated twice if they cannot supply the goods when they expire, the shopkeeper Wu did not take it to heart, and with the ability of Yuelaiju, he can find a few helpers to easily complete the supply task within ten days.

After this transaction is completed, after deducting the cost, there will be thousands of dollars in profits, and the pie falling from the sky, how can Shopkeeper Wu give up?

On the fourth day, Yuelaiju successfully delivered the first batch of ducks to businessmen in neighboring counties, and the atmosphere between the two sides was harmonious, and the shopkeeper Wu was more determined.

On the morning of the fifth day, the shopkeeper Wu was settling accounts, and the steward of the roast duck room hurriedly came over to report: "The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, the small one sent someone out to buy ducks, but all the ducks in the market were bought, this is ...... Without duck, crispy roast duck can't be served! ”

Shopkeeper Wu's heart tightened, and he suddenly had a bad thought, and said hurriedly: "Hurry up and send more people out to buy, there is no more in the city, so go to the farmer's house in the countryside to buy it, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy the duck back!" ”

As soon as the steward of the roast duck room left, the shopkeeper Wu's face suddenly became ugly, and based on his years of experience, he realized that he had fallen into someone else's trap this time. There are still five days left in this transaction, and if it cannot be delivered when it expires, it will be compensated tens of thousands of taels of silver, not to mention Yuelaiju, even the Liang Mansion will not be able to take out so much silver.

Shopkeeper Wu was anxious, thought about it again and again, and decided to go to the Liang Mansion to discuss with Han Fei.

"Childe, the old man is unclear, and he deserves death!"

Han Fei saw that the shopkeeper Wu snapped as soon as he entered the door, knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty, was taken aback, hurriedly pulled him up, and said, "Uncle Wu, what is this for, isn't it a small life?" The sky can't fall, so you can sit down and drink tea and talk slowly! ”

The shopkeeper Wu ordered crispy roast duck from the merchants in the neighboring county, as well as the ducks in the market, and after a detailed description, he was so guilty that he burst into tears.

"There must be a demon when things go wrong, this ......" Han Fei saw that the shopkeeper Wu was extremely sad, and couldn't bear to stimulate him anymore, and said with relief: "Uncle Wu, don't be too worried, someone sincerely wants to calculate us, and if you can't prevent it for a while, you will have an accident sooner or later!" The soldiers are coming, the water is coming, and there are still six days, Han believes that he can find a way to tide over the crisis! ”

"Childe, who do you say is this calculating Yuelaiju?" Shopkeeper Wu's eyes widened angrily, if he knew who did it, he was afraid that he would bite the other party's heart.

"It depends on who has the greatest conflict of interest with Yuelaiju, if the calculation is successful, who benefits the most is the driving force behind the scenes, and the so-called merchants from neighboring counties are just a disguise!"

"This must be done by the ten thousand families of the rich building!"

"I'm afraid there are more than 10,000 families, and he can't control the ducks in the entire market alone! Alas, this is also my ill-considered, we Yuelaiju is too strong, offended a lot of people, after this crisis, we have to have a good relationship with our peers, and we can make a fortune together for a long time! ”

"Childe means that this time we are calculating that it is a joint action of counterparts in the city? That...... I'm afraid I won't be able to buy ducks when I send people out of the city! ”

"Possibly, but it's better to go out and have a look!" Han Fei pondered for a moment, and then said, "Uncle Wu, you go back to the restaurant first to take care of it, and I'll solve this matter!" ”

After Shopkeeper Wu left, Han Fei walked to the small cross-courtyard where the Qinglong and White Tigers were studying.

"Qinglong, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Xuanwu, the four of you come with me!"

"Yes, young master!"

After the edification of the four little guys these days, the breath of beggars on their bodies is gone. With the increase of their knowledge, they have become even more in awe of Han Fei to the extent of worship.

Han Fei took the four little guys and walked into the East Cross Courtyard where he lived, and said: "The brothers of the poor family gang are walking through the streets and alleys, and the news is the most well-informed, you go to them to inquire about who is buying the ducks in the market today, and report back as soon as there is news!" ”

"Yes, young master!" The four little kids were on their first mission, and they were so excited that they ran away.

Han Fei looked at Sixiao's back and fell into deep thought, who were those people involved in this attack on Yuelaiju? To be sure, Wan must have participated, as for the others......

At this time, he realized how ridiculous he was, he had never investigated the background of his peers in the city, fortunately it was only a small county town, if it was a big city like Jinling, the industry situation would be more complicated, and once he encountered a problem, he didn't know where to start. Practical experience is still insufficient!

More than an hour later, the four children came back one after another.

"Young master, the matter has been clarified, and the one who bought the duck was led by Fuguilou, Sihaiju, and Yipinxuan, and dozens of taverns and restaurants together. Not only the ducks in the city, but also the ducks of the farmers in the suburbs were also ordered! ”

Nima, this is to completely cut off the supply of Yuelaiju, forcing Yuelaiju to not be able to hand over the duck after six days, and lose money and go out of business!

Han Fei asked in a deep voice: "Whose property is Sihaiju and Yipinxuan?" ”

"Sihaiju belongs to the Zhang family in the south of the city, and the owner of Yipinxuan heard that it belongs to the He family of Youzi Mountain!"

"Who is the owner of Yipinxuan?"

Han Fei was stunned, could it be the industry of the old rich family in Shangling Village? Thinking of He Laocai, suddenly a rude and willful figure floated in front of him.

Sixiao heard Han Fei's inquiry, and hurriedly repeated it.

Sending Sixiao back to study, Han Fei called Jia Ming out of the door of the Liang Mansion, turned around on the street, made sure that no one was following, and rushed to Yipinxuan in Beicheng.

Yipinxuan is far away from Yuelaiju, and the impact is not very large, and there are still a lot of diners in the guest hall. Han Fei and Jia Ming asked for a private room, and after ordering all the wine and food, they said to Xiao Er: "Who is in charge of your restaurant?" I am your fellow villager, please let the little second brother know, I have something to discuss! ”

Not long after the shopkeeper went out, a chubby man in brocade in his thirties walked in, looked at Han Fei and Jia Ming a few times, and said, "Little He Chengfei, I don't know which brother Tai is my fellow villager, what is the matter with me?" ”

Han Fei heard the other party's name report, and understood that it was indeed the person he was looking for, so he got up and said with a smile: "It turns out that the second son is in charge here, and the younger brother is Han Fei from Xialing Village, who didn't come to visit earlier, what a faux pas!" ”

"Brother Han is polite......" He Chengfei suddenly thought of something, and changed color and said: "The second owner of Yuelaiju is also called Han Fei, you ......"

Han Fei smiled calmly and said, "Yuelaiju is the little brother and the Liang family in partnership!" ”
