In the past few days, many rich people in the town have come to eat their tofu and bean cakes, and they will not be surprised to see well-dressed guests, and they will quickly serve them tofu and bean cakes.

The rich-looking guest ate very carefully, savoring each bite for a while, and opened the packet of spices, dipped a little of it with his fingers, put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully.

Shaoqing said to the shrewd guest: "The taste is fresh and fragrant, not rushing, it's this taste." ”

These two people are the shopkeeper of the rich building in the town and Chef Li, the Gu family's tofu stall business is very prosperous, they knew it on the day of the Lantern Festival, but they only thought that this was a cheap thing in the countryside, not enough to be elegant, so they ignored it.

But after the Lantern Festival, the business of this tofu stall is still very good, and many customers specially bought the fried spiced tofu and bean cakes from the tofu stall to eat in their rich building.

They could smell the fragrance from afar.

The shopkeeper Zeng asked the guys in Fuguilou to buy a few fried spiced tofu, bean cakes, and a few packets of seasoning spices to go back, and he tried them with Chef Li, and asked Chef Li to try to make those seasoning spices.

But the strange thing is that Chef Li used all the traditional spices to prepare them, but he couldn't match the taste of the Gu family's spices.

Aunt Tian saw that the two of them were eating carefully, and they were looking down and muttering something, she was very worried, thinking that they had spoiled the taste of tofu and bean cakes, and the guests were not satisfied with the food, so they wanted to trouble them?

Just as he was worried, the shrewd-looking middle-aged man glanced up at them, and finally looked at the third grandfather, beckoned to him, and motioned for him to come over.

The third grandfather walked over and asked with a smile, "What's the matter with the guest?" ”

Shopkeeper Zeng was not ambiguous, and said directly: "Your tofu and bean cakes, as well as seasoning and spices, are not bad, we are willing to pay thirty taels of silver to buy this recipe, what do you think?" ”

"Not how." Gu Jinli said: "This is our ancestral secret method, and we will not sell anything." If we sell it, our ancestors will blame us unscrupulous descendants. ”

Thirty taels of silver want to buy her three formulas, what are you kidding?

In the most months that they have set up their stalls, they can earn at least three taels of silver a day, and at most they earn six taels. Now this tofu stall has already earned more than thirty taels, and these two people want to buy their recipes for thirty taels, and they will sell it to them if they are stupid.

When the shopkeeper heard Gu Jinli's words, his face sank, and he asked the third grandfather with a sneer: "Is your family headed by children?" "All the adults are dead?

The third grandfather said very simply: "Xiaoyu can indeed be the owner of this tofu stall." ”

This tofu bean cake and seasoning spices are made from small fish, so naturally she has the final say.

The shopkeeper choked, but he didn't expect the third grandfather to say this, and his face turned blue with anger.

Chef Li was afraid that the shopkeeper Zeng would collapse the matter, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't mind, old man, our shopkeeper is such a temper." ”

He added: "We really want to buy your recipe, if we think the price is not suitable, we can talk again." ”

This tofu was a fresh food he had never seen before, and if he could take the recipe, they would definitely make a lot of money.

But the third grandfather still said: "This is the livelihood of our family, and we won't sell it." ”

When Chef Li heard this, he also frowned, but he had a better temper than the shopkeeper Zeng, so he didn't get angry, but pushed the shopkeeper Zeng and signaled him to increase the price.

The shopkeeper said: "Forty taels of silver, how about forty taels of silver to buy your three squares?" This price is already very high, you are fleeing from the famine, there is no land in Dafeng Village, with these forty taels of silver, you can go and buy land. ”

He looked at the third grandfather, and said in a non-yin and non-yang tone: "This business is not so easy to do, farmers should still farm honestly." ”

The third grandfather and Gu Jinli frowned when they heard this, what they meant was that the shopkeeper had checked them.

Gu Jinli simply said: "If you pay a hundred taels, we won't sell it." ”

She pointed to the iron plate of fried tofu and said, "This is the method, you will see it at a glance." If you want to sell this dish, you can buy white tofu and spices with us and go back to make it, and you can still make this dish without trouble. ”

This is indeed a method, but what they want in Fuguilou is to take this fresh food alone, where are they willing to listen to Gu Jinli?

Seeing that the shopkeeper couldn't talk, he stood up with an ugly face, and said: "In this case, you can keep this broken recipe, it's just ......" He sneered a few times: "Whether you can continue to do this business depends on whether God rewards your face!" ”

After putting down the cruel words, the shopkeeper Zeng took Chef Li away, and before leaving, he swept the uneaten tofu and bean cakes on the table to the ground, which scared Chu and Aunt Tian a lot, which made it clear that they would not let them go.

Luo's father was very angry, but he couldn't run up and beat people.

The third grandfather frowned, and after the shopkeeper Zeng and Chef Li left, he immediately took Gu Jinli to the hanging pot shop again and asked about the shopkeeper Zeng.

After hearing this, Old Doctor Wu frowned and said, "Zeng Da went to find you?" ”

The third grandfather nodded: "Well, he wants to buy our recipe, but we don't sell it, so he put down his cruel words, probably because he wants our stall to not be able to stand." ”

Doctor Wu sighed: "That's troublesome, that Zeng Da is the slave of the Zou County Cheng family, helping the Zou County Cheng family manage the business of Fuguilou, and he has some power in Qingfu Town." ”

Gu Jinli frowned, and it was the county Cheng again: "What is the origin of this Zou County Cheng family, why is there something about his family everywhere?" ”

The daughter of the old man Lu in Dafeng Village married the county Cheng as a concubine, and the owner of Fuguilou is also the county Cheng family, is the power of the county Cheng family all over Tianfu County?

Doctor Wu said: "The Zou County Cheng family is a big family in Tianfu County, and they have lived in Tianfu County for generations. ”

After all, the county order is changed every three years, but the county is an adjutant official, and there is no need to change it, if you dredge it well, you can do it for a lifetime, but you can become arrogant and become a tyrant in Tianfu County.

After listening to Dr. Wu's words, the third grandfather was frightened and hurriedly asked, "What can I do then?" This Zou County Cheng family won't come to rob our recipe, right? ”

If they really come to rob it, they won't be able to protect it at all, and they will have to take the lives of several families if they can't get it.

Damn it!

Gu Jinli scolded a dirty word in his heart, greeting the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the Zou County Cheng family, and there was a vicious and murderous aura in his eyes, then the Zou County Cheng family had better not beat her tofu recipe idea, otherwise, she wouldn't mind chopping him.

She had seen a lot of blood in her previous life, and she was not short of Zou Xiancheng.

And the old man of the Lu family, who was in a hurry, she made some poison and let his whole family reach Bliss as soon as possible!

Facing the sad face of the third grandfather, Old Doctor Wu didn't have a good way for a while, so he could only persuade him: "Don't worry, everyone in this town knows your relationship with our Hanging Pot Fang, and Zeng Da doesn't dare to be too blatant, you can relax and go back first." ”

The third grandfather knew that they had already troubled Doctor Wu a lot, and he was embarrassed to trouble him again, so when he heard this, he could only take Gu Jinli back first.
