"You just wait here, and when I get news from Lai San, come here."

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at the few people who wanted to get up and join him, and asked them to stay here.

This kind of thing can't be solved by a lot of people.

Shopkeeper Zhang got up and went out, leaving Heqiang and a few people to wait anxiously here.

In the No. A room, the shopkeeper Zhang made tea and tasted tea as always.

"Buckle Buckle"

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in."

Shopkeeper Zhang poured two cups of tea, one for himself, and then put a cup on the opposite side of the table, the freshly brewed tea had a pleasant aroma, wafting throughout the room.

"The shopkeeper's Lai San is here."

Zhao Xiaoge, who went to call Lai San, came in the door, and after saying to the shopkeeper, he stood aside.

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded, didn't look at the door, and lowered his head to take care of his own tea.

Lai San came in the door and saw this scene.

At the beginning, when his subordinates said that Zhao Xiaoguan, who was from Zhenwei Restaurant, was here, he was still a little surprised. I don't understand what Steward Zhao, who has never crossed paths, came to look for him to do? They weren't the ones on the road, and with their status in Peace Town, there was no place for him to help.

However, although there were doubts in his heart, he still invited someone in, not for anything else, although this Zhao Xiaoge is only a small second, but who in the circle does not privately respect Zhao Xiaoguan, and the treasured shopkeeper has never opened his mouth to deny it, so everyone with a head and face knows this person, and as long as this person comes, whether it is something or not, he will treat each other with courtesy, and the shopkeeper who usually finds Zhenwei is also conveyed through him.

"Oh, Steward Zhao, you are a rare guest, why do you have time to come to me today?"

Lai San saw that Zhao Xiaoste entered the courtyard and went out to greet him, and said loudly, his face was full of smiles, as if people who didn't know how familiar they were.

"Hehe, Brother Shi is polite, today we are the shopkeeper to discuss something with Brother Shi."

Hearing Lai San speak like this, the high look between the words did not make Zhao Xiaoge have any smug and spirited looks, and still spoke to Lai San with a pleasant face.

He knew the rumors about him in the market, and others misunderstood and even looked down on him, it was the kindness of the shopkeeper and his creation, so that the people on the road usually gave him a face. But if he were to take this kind of thing seriously, it would be a different story.

So although everyone treats him politely and amicably, he still abides by the duty of a junior and does not exceed the rules. This also made the shopkeeper Zhang more and more satisfied and valued him. In turn, it made him more and more weighty in the way.

"Oh? I don't know what the shopkeeper is looking for? Can Steward Zhao tell me one or two? ”

Lai San, formerly known as Shi Gang, looked at Brother Zhao with a puzzled face.

"Hehe, I don't know about this, but the shopkeeper told me to come over."

Brother Zhao was still smiling, and his answer was not leaky, so that Lai San, who wanted to probe his mouth, was a bit like an ant who couldn't find his way, and he didn't know why he was always bottomless in his heart.

Brother Zhao said this on purpose, of course he knew the reason, but he couldn't tell him about it. In this matter, they are hostile to Lai Sanke.

"Brother Shi, let's get ready, let's go. The shopkeeper is waiting. ”

Brother Zhao glanced at Lai San, who was puzzled, and didn't give him a solution, and said directly.

"Oh, okay, then bother Zhao Xiao Steward wait a minute, let's go."

Lai San heard that the shopkeeper Zhang was looking for it in such a hurry, so he put aside the incomprehension in his heart, nodded and said to Brother Zhao.

Lai San walked aside, called someone over, gave a few words, and walked over.

"Let's go"

Lai San said to Brother Zhao, making a gesture of please.

Brother Zhao glanced at Lai San, thinking about what he had just heard, without words.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, your old health is fine! I've always wanted to see you but didn't have the chance, but today I can finally see you! ”

Lai San is worthy of being a mixed bag, although he doesn't know what the shopkeeper is looking for him to do, but he doesn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, he comes up to say hello to the shopkeeper Zhang, and expresses his admiration for him, full of sincerity.

If the shopkeeper usually said a few words to him, but today......

"Lai San, don't say anything else. I heard that you have a woman in your hands these days? Is there such a thing? ”

Shopkeeper Zhang said and raised his chin and motioned for Lai San to sit down and use the tea across the table.

Lai San looked at the shopkeeper Zhang who lowered his eyes and stopped talking, and sat down nervously. With a teacup in his hand, he couldn't drink it.

Didn't he just listen to the man who caught an ordinary woman, why did he follow the town's dragon head to get involved? And listening to this tone, he obviously already knew that it was his hand, otherwise he wouldn't have called him over directly, and although the shopkeeper was asking, he was sure that he already knew it clearly.

"Hehe, where did the shopkeeper Zhang say, I have been staying at my house for the past few days and have not gone out, where have I arrested any woman."

can't admit it, if this woman really has something to do with the shopkeeper, let alone admit it, if you want to come to the shopkeeper and call him directly to ask if he hasn't found anyone yet, since he hasn't found anyone, then he still has a chance, and what evidence do they have to prove that he was arrested.

Lai San refused to admit it, looking at the shopkeeper Zhang's serious face, if it wasn't for them to get the exact news, I am afraid that they would really be deceived by him like this.

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Lai San, who had a calm face, and looked at him in a daze, for a moment, and didn't speak.

Slowly, Lai San felt the pressure, and a cold sweat began to break out behind him, after all, he had a weak heart, so it didn't take long for him to resist the wise and loving gaze of the shopkeeper.

But this Lai San is also a man, and he can still do not change his face and clench his teeth under such an oppressive gaze of Shopkeeper Zhang. Although his heart trembled so much, his back was already soaked.

Brother Zhao saw that Lai San was so hard-mouthed, thinking of what he said to his subordinates when he was leaving just now, although he said it very quietly, but Brother Zhao still heard some words "Drunk Red Mansion" and "Girl", so he walked to the shopkeeper Zhang and whispered what he heard to the shopkeeper Zhang.

Lai San looked at Brother Zhao who was whispering in front of him, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

After Xiao Zhao finished speaking, he got up and stood aside, and the shopkeeper Zhang looked up at Lai San again, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he had to rescue the girl quickly.

"Lai San, I'll ask you one last time, if you confess honestly, then I can act as if this incident didn't happen."

The shopkeeper opened his mouth calmly. But looking at Lai San's eyes and the words he said made Lai San's heart tighten.

What does this mean? What if it's not honest? What will he do?

Lai San looked up at the shopkeeper Zhang, thinking of some rumors he had heard before.

It is rumored that this shopkeeper has peerless martial arts, because he caused trouble in the imperial capital, so he came here to avoid the limelight, and it is said that the power behind it is very great, and there was once a person who did not believe in evil and directly hit the door, and his words were extremely insulting.

Although it was calmed down by the presence of other big people in the town at the time, it was later found dead at home, and he was tortured before he died.

And some people saw that the county magistrate in the town was also respectful to the shopkeeper.

……

Thinking of these rumors, Lai San beat a drum in his heart,

To say that he and Xiang Tianqi didn't have any holidays, this was because someone found him and asked him to do something, and promised to give him a thousand taels after the matter was completed, he thought that such an easy thing could get so much silver and agreed, who knew that it would involve treasures and a shopkeeper.

I knew that I wouldn't say a thousand taels, and he wouldn't do it for 10,000 taels!

That man really killed him! Even if he is a well-known figure in this town, how can he compare to the person in front of him.

I don't know what Brother Zhao told him just now, so that Shopkeeper Zhang said this sentence like an ultimatum.

Thinking left and right, weighing the pros and cons for a long time, Lai San made a decision.

"As long as I say it. Does the shopkeeper really not care? ”

Lai San stared at Shopkeeper Zhang cautiously, he needed to get a positive answer from Shopkeeper Zhang, and he needed to confirm it, who knows if anyone else would do anything unfavorable to him by currying favor with Shopkeeper Zhang afterwards.

And it is said that there are some secret guards around this kind of person, he has seen it in an old lady's house before, as long as he calls, someone will appear out of thin air. What if there is such a person around Shopkeeper Zhang, so he wants to get a positive answer from Shopkeeper Zhang.

"Don't worry, I said that if you don't care, you don't care."

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded, took a sip of tea, and gave an answer that reassured Lai San.

Lai San exhaled a breath of turbidity, clarified his thoughts and began to speak.

"About half a month ago, the shopkeeper of the Red Man Fang came to me and said that I would do one thing, and give me a thousand taels of silver after the thing was completed. I asked, and said that it was the shopkeeper of the new Hutchison shop in town, and that I could just catch her and ask a few words as they asked. ”

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Lai San in front of him, his eyes rolling.

"Oh? Reds? What do you want to arrest people for? What words to ask? ”

Shopkeeper Zhang asked three questions in a row.

"This ......"

Lai San paused for a moment, saw the shopkeeper Zhang glance at him, and immediately stopped his careful thoughts.

"Yes, Red Man Fang, let me arrest someone and ask them for their recipes."

In fact, Lai San was also a little puzzled in his heart, how could such a big restaurant in Hongrenfang be on the bar with a small shop that had just opened for a short time? I also fell in love with other people's food recipes, and I also used this way of not being on the table, how wrong is this, how weird it is.

Lai San was puzzled by the Red Man Fang's approach, but Shopkeeper Zhang was clear in his heart.

Because Zhenwei Restaurant has Xiang Tianqi's food supply, it is slowly impossible to squeeze other restaurants in the town, and there is a faint sense of leading boss and monopoly. The other few are still half-dead even if they are still open, supported by some old customers, but if nothing new comes out, they will close their doors sooner or later.

So at this time, Hutchison, who suddenly caught fire, gave them hope, even if it was just a small shop.

I think it was because they couldn't find the little girl to ask for a dish, so they have today's thing.

After listening to what Lai San said, Shopkeeper Zhang probably knew what was going on.
