The "cobbler's" smile only stays on the epidermis, he has long forgotten how a real smile should affect his muscles, for him, money can make him happy, that is enough, his smile is only to make it easier to deal with people, if necessary, he can also cry and mourn, he only remembers one faith, money is everything.
He knew that the person in front of him was a rich man, and the few things he had sold him before were things that could not see the light, and they could not flow at all on the surface, and the black market could only be discounted before he could sell, but the one in front of him took over directly at the normal price, so sometimes, the cobbler liked to sell things to him, and after a few times, he became a little familiar.
Since there is such a shady business dealing, the cobbler has carefully investigated this person during his cautious period, and it is naturally good to be wronged, but in case it is a strip of line, it will be very troublesome.
However, after some investigation, although the cobbler doubted his identity, he did not think that the other party was a strip.
This person opened this store here about three years ago that is only open at night, his real name is unknown, he often calls himself Ku Ye, and he prefers to call him Brother Ding, but if he really says that his name is Ku Ding, most of them are unbelievable. Just looking at the appearance of Ku Ding is about less than thirty years old, and his outstanding appearance often makes people unable to look at him directly, which belongs to the existence of the peak of appearance. has a magical knife technique, once in front of a few guests, easily dissociated half of the raw sheep, should have a long career as a chef. He has a special love for antiquities, and seems to have some different abilities, and it is said that only those with his permission can enter his shop, as if to say that the alley in front of him has been arranged by him.
The last point, the cobbler did not believe it at first, he and the two dealers have been dealing with some rats all the year round, and have heard some unscientific legends, but they are just listening, he thought that this was just to add some ancillary value to those things that are not visible, but then he encountered something that made him have to re-understand the world, for people like Ku Ding, the cobbler has to keep this kind of distance, neither far nor too close.
Until he met his employer, or the one who gave him this assignment.
If Ku Ding gave him the feeling of being a mysterious person, that one was a bad star, and if he couldn't invite him over, he might die.
Yes, it really will die, because that one is not human at all.
However, the smile of the master in front of him who had not changed from beginning to end made the cobbler a little uneasy, this kind of smile, the cobbler was too familiar, perfunctory and false, and only stayed on the surface.
That one, he can't afford to offend, but he can't afford to offend himself in front of him, he tries his best not to cause the other party's displeasure, but he can ask a big guy to be a cook for others, which is a very offensive thing in itself, although, on the surface, the other party seems to be a cook.
Seeing that Ku Ding did not speak, the cobbler was a little nervous.
"The other party said that as long as you can go, you will open any conditions, and you will never bargain."
The cobbler gestured, hoping to show the large price that the other party was willing to give, and the eyeballs behind the gold-rimmed glasses kept turning, as if looking for a reasonable explanation, but he also understood that this work was not a good job, but he could not refuse, because the one who asked him to do the work was extremely cruel, and he still wanted to live, it was a matter of life and death, and he had to give it a try.
"Did he come out?"
Ning Meng next to him couldn't help but speak, his face full of disdain.
"In this world, those who dare to let my husband go to cook are dead!"
The dead word made the cobbler very uncomfortable, although he had some connections, but after all, he was just a businessman, and he had to think about it in business, since he had come to this point, he could only bite the bullet.
At least these two are still human beings in front of them, and that one ......
"Mr. Ku, you still think about it, the other party has a lot of power, we can't afford to mess with it, it's just a meal, and the other party also offered you a high price, right."
He didn't dare to directly say that the other party was not human, so he could only turn around and want to remind Ku Ding, hoping that he would understand.
"You also opened this store, and the purpose of opening a store is always to make money, and it is not the same how you make money."
The cobbler's words became more and more chaotic, he was not usually like this, he just wanted to finish this matter quickly, or simply leave the city, but if he did, he could not give up all these years of business here.
Perhaps, just cling to that one.
"If you want to find a big tree to enjoy the shade, you have to see if that tree can survive this winter."
Ku Ding glanced at the cobbler, and those eyes pierced the cobbler's heart and lungs like sharp blades, and also exposed the cobbler's thoughts.
"You...... You can't fight against the other, you will die, you will surely ......"
The next moment, a cold light flashed, and a kitchen knife had been chopped on the table, and the blade was hanging with a sharp edge, just by looking at it, it seemed to have a pain in the skin.
"Ning Meng, go and bring that dish up, the overnight dish is not delicious."
A kitchen knife chopped on the table, which made the leather craftsman panic, and when he heard that Ku Ding asked Ning Meng to serve the food, he didn't know why, while Ning Meng went to serve the food, he still carefully pushed a black invitation to the table, and the front of the invitation was a skeleton dripping with blood.
Ku Ding didn't answer, but Ning Meng slammed a plate of fried croquettes on the table, and the golden meatballs mixed with a hint of green still had a crispy aroma of frying.
"This plate is called fried water ghosts, come, taste it."
Ku Ding took a sip of night tea, and he didn't speak hurriedly, but listening to the name of the dish, the cobbler was in a cold sweat, and he hesitated to eat one, but Ku Ding's eyes were too eye-catching, if he didn't take a bite, he estimated that he wouldn't be able to get out of the door.
I pinched a ball and put it in my mouth, although it had been left for an hour, the taste of this ball was still delicious, but the cobbler ate it without any taste.
After eating one, the cobbler couldn't eat the second one, and the balls seemed to be stuck in his throat, making it difficult to breathe.
"What, doesn't it taste good?"
"Good, good, delicious."
Now that the invitation had been given, the cobbler just wanted to leave quickly, and it was a big deal to leave the city, whether it was the death threat of that person, or the pressure that Cu Ding gave him, he couldn't bear it, and strange to say, Ku Ding just laughed, but the pressure made him go crazy.
"Since it's delicious, let's take the rest of the pack back with you."
"No, not really."
"It's not for you, take it back to that one, and tell him that the ingredients sent have been received and taste good, but don't send them so fat next time."
The cobbler was a thoughtful man, he re-understood Ku Ding's words in his mind, and instantly realized that the ingredient should refer to the person who was sent to do the same thing as him, and then looked at the plate of meatballs in front of him, and his heart turned over, and the cobbler almost vomited.
