Chapter 37: The shopkeeper Yu is mighty

"Sister Green Orange don't blame herself like this, it's just that I was confused once in a while and didn't pay attention, and I just thought about it, I make mistakes on weekdays, and my sister points me a lot of miles!"

Red Rose smiled and comforted Green Orange.

"It's good that there are a lot of intimate people around, one can't think of another reminder, so like this, what are the dangers and difficulties for us!"

Li Yuqing looked at the friendship between the two maids, understood each other's appearance, and said encouragingly.

The three maids glanced at each other, and secretly thought in their hearts that the young lady's words meant something, and they had to trust each other more.

As the days passed, the head of July was ushered in, and the tail of August was sent away, and the sun was still as enthusiastic as fire, without the slightest malaise.

Business in Xinmuzhai is in full swing, and the shop is bustling with activity from morning to night, in stark contrast to the fading courtyards where almost all walks of life are declining and deserted at the beginning of summer.

This booming business in Xinmuzhai naturally hinders the eyes of some people.

In the Fenghua Teahouse, not far from Xinmuzhai, complaints sounded.

"What kind of shop does a foreigner come to Qingluo Town to open and sell all kinds of things, when it is a grocery store that is not in the stream!"

Shopkeeper Yu paced back and forth on the second floor, cursing angrily to vent his dissatisfaction.

The seats on the second floor were empty, except for a few runners who were bent on their elbows and put their heads on them, little by little, dozing off boredly.

Seeing that no one echoed his words, he couldn't help but turn his head to look, a few guys in the shop were lying on the table weakly, lazy and lazy and didn't care, and suddenly the anger rushed to his heart, his face burned red, and he strode forward, and the soft fan in his hand slammed his head and covered his face, scolding while beating:

"And you lazy people, who are lazy all day long, won't go to the street to pull a few guests! It's all a bunch of dead ghosts! Go soliciting, go! ”

"Oops! Ah! ”

The guys covered their heads and dodged, their mouths made painful sounds, and when they heard the shopkeeper telling them to go out to solicit customers, they were suddenly reluctant and defended one after another.

"There is such a big sun in the sky, such a hot weather, you can't get heat stroke when you go out, and when the guest doesn't arrive, you have to pay the money for the medicine to the shopkeeper, and the gains outweigh the losses! The gains outweigh the losses! ”

"That's it! It is! Besides, it's noon, and there is no one on the street, and there are no ghosts! ”

"Shopkeeper, why have we been open for many years in this building, and guests will come by themselves if they want to come, won't we offend them if we forcibly solicit customers?"

"That's right!"

"Brother Zhang is right!"

Hearing a few guys say this, Shopkeeper Yu staggered angrily, sat on the ground with one butt, patted his chest with one hand to calm his anger, and stretched out his index finger with the other hand and pointed at a few guys tremblingly:

"You don't want to, do you? That's good, this month's monthly money will be deducted five yuan, and those who are dissatisfied can get rid of Lao Tzu! ”

The guys were stunned by the shopkeeper's words, stunned for a few seconds, and after weighing the pros and cons in their hearts, they changed their faces.

"Don't, the monthly money is only eight dollars of silver, and after deducting five dollars, there are three dollars left, and I will drink the northwest wind next month!"

"I'll pull it when it's not so sunny later!"

A thin and clever guy came over, and led the shopkeeper Yu to the chair and sat down with kindness and thoughtfulness, and said indignantly:

"I don't like Xinmuzhai either, a shop, it's all in full swing before it opens, it's not very serious!

Things are still expensive, and everyone who is confused goes to buy them, and a glass of water with a little taste costs dozens or hundreds of dollars, isn't this a pit money! ”

When Shopkeeper Yu heard this, he felt better, and there were always people who agreed with him and his general thoughts, but his dissatisfaction with Xinmuzhai was even stronger:

"As soon as it opened, we teahouse cake shops had no way to live, and they had been deserted for a month or two, and we had to watch its business boom.

Every day, I watched the guests pass by, and I went to it without looking at the teahouse. Oops! You don't know my heart! It's a painful panic! ”

The thin guy also looked indignant, and suddenly, the small eyes rolled around, and approached the ears of the shopkeeper Yu:

"Why don't the shopkeepers design a plan with a few shops that are dissatisfied with Xinmuzhai to squeeze out this Xinmuzhai?

The foundation of this new Muzhai is still shallow, and it is from other places, so it is just right to do it at this time, if it takes root, then what will happen to the people who have gone out of business! ”

"This..., okay?" Shopkeeper Yu stroked his beard, and his face was tangled.

He is really a little unsure of his idea, Zhai Dynasty's judiciary is rigorous, public security is strict, and the reporting system is even more complete.

This small Qingluo town has not had gangsters and scoundrels make trouble for more than ten years, and bullies are a rare species that can only be owned in the house.

There is a bully in a small place, and it is not enough for the people to report it happily, one hundred taels of silver per person, there is a report, there is no limit, this money has to be raised by the bully's family, who is out of this? That is, only places above the prefecture level can afford to raise bullies, and they have to be from top aristocratic families, with such gold and silver, connections, and power.

In a small place, bullies really don't exist, and when a child is found to have extremely bad signs since he was a child, he will be broken by his father and lie down at home, so as not to ruin the family foundation. My legs are broken, how can I go to the streets?

The powerful people of the land are bound not to do evil, let alone the merchants. If the shop uses unfair competition methods, if it is discovered, it is likely to lose its pants and be imprisoned for several years, which is really not a good idea!

However, it seems that there is really no good way at this time, and with a gentle approach, both parties can benefit, and it is best to cooperate...

Shopkeeper Yu thought like this, and his eyes inadvertently drifted to Zhang Monkey, who had an idea in front of him.

The dry and thin figure has a clever face, and at this moment he has a righteous face, a look of hugging him, and his eyes are flashing with excitement of unknown meaning.

There was a sudden chuckle in my heart, and a chill rushed up: No, this kid just wanted to calculate me, and he deliberately said this! I was so excited just now that I almost followed his temptation to get around, he's a villain who can snitch!

I was very angry in my heart, but I immediately made a panicked expression on my face, and said loudly in surprise and fear:

"Zhang Monkey, why do you have such thoughts, I know you also want our teahouse business to be better, but you don't have to think of such a shady scheme, this has to go to jail!"

A few guys listened to the movement and looked over, and after listening to what the shopkeeper said, everyone looked over with disdain, surprise, and shock.

Zhang Monkey's face turned red when he was seen, and he raised his voice to defend: "No..., I didn't!" ”

I was angry and hateful in my heart, I was so recognized by Yu Ye, an old horseman, I was about to be moved!

This old thing sent him to do this and that every day, and he didn't give him a monthly increase, and he was dissatisfied with him for a long time, and this time he just wanted to rectify him, and he could get a lot of money for reporting!

How did you get noticed?!

Shopkeeper Yu seemed to be stimulated, and screamed accusations:

"What am I lying about? How not? didn't say those unsightly words, why did you secretly whisper in your ear! ”

This is true, and those words are indeed unsightly, and they are not good words.

After all, Zhang Monkey is a little less experienced, and he can't compare to an old man like the shopkeeper, listening to this truth, his heart immediately became empty, and he snorted: "No... Yes and no... Things! ”

When a few guys in the shop saw it, their hearts that were originally just suspicious became affirmative, and their disdainful eyes pierced Zhang Monkey.

On weekdays, he feels that he is flamboyant and very snobbish, and he is really not a good thing! Wouldn't being a brother to someone like him be a problem for me? Thinking like this, someone inside spoke:

"Shopkeeper, fire Zhang Monkey, it's really scary for such a person to work with us." After speaking, he glanced at Zhang Monkey in disgust.

"That's right, just fire him!"

"Stay here, who knows what he'll do!"

There was a lot of talking.

Zhang Monkey was a little scared, isn't this going to lose this job, it's not easy to find such a job with such a high monthly income to do!

Zhang Monkey threw himself on the ground all of a sudden, hugged the shopkeeper's feet, and cried:

"Shopkeeper! I was wrong, it's all my ghost, I actually think of some bad ideas, you can beat me, only if you don't fire me, let me do anything! ”

howled and howled, let go of the shopkeeper's feet, and cried and grabbed the ground:

"I still have an old husband and mother at home! The lady gave birth to a doll and was not full moon, and she was about to eat some good tonic for her body! This guy is gone, how can the whole family live, isn't it going to kill the family? …”

Shopkeeper Yu looked at this person more and more excessively, raised his hand to stop it, took out a hanging of money and threw it on the table:

"Okay, okay, what does this look like!

Give you this month's monthly money, and add 200 Wen, enough for your family to eat and drink in a month, and you can take this time to find a buddy. I am grateful to you!

In short, I won't keep you, either just get out, or take the money and leave with you! ”

Listening to the firm tone of the shopkeeper Yu, knowing that he would have no result if he asked for it again, he immediately changed his face, glared at the shopkeeper resentfully, dragged a handful of money downstairs, spit at the door of the teahouse, and walked away with a scolding.

Shopkeeper Yu looked at him like this and shook his head, he had long wanted to fire this monkey, but because of the poverty in his family and the old man in the teahouse, he turned a blind eye to him and watched him lazy and slippery.

As a result, he was so kind and hated by him, and this time he actually thought of a bad idea to induce him, although he was not fooled, but his heart was still very responsive! With such a villain around, wouldn't he accidentally plant him?

It's better to drive away!

"Don't go out to pull people, this will be drying, you clean up well!"

A few guys knew that they didn't need to go out to dry, so they happily responded and went to work.

The shopkeeper is still excellent most of the time, but he has regular convulsions and will be irritable.

"Hey!" Seeing that the guys had dispersed, Shopkeeper Yu sat alone in a chair and sighed, muttering to himself:

"My character is still very good, honest and trustworthy, good character, good looks! Just look at my beard, I am also the first beautiful beard in Qingluo Town!

If you go to talk to others about cooperation, you shouldn't be rejected, right? ”
