Chapter 232: Shock
Zhao Fengnian played with the blue and white tea bowl and sneered, "I really came to talk to Boss Cao about business, but the brothers were too enthusiastic, and they tried again and again. ”
Boss Cao squinted slightly, "The brothers' way of welcoming guests is a little weird, if Mr. thinks like this, I don't want to say much." But what kind of business does the gentleman have, show it to the brothers. ”
A smile flashed in Zhao Fengnian's slightly drooping eyes, these ruffians are really like what Lao Wang said, everything relies on his fists to speak, and only powerful people are qualified to sit down and talk to them about business, but this is fine, if they can really be subdued, their own shop will be in Dongcheng District in the future, and there will definitely be no trouble at all.
He took a shallow sip of tea and said with a smile, "Our house recently opened a small shop in this Dongcheng District, and the business is good, so it has been remembered, and it has been a little restless these days, and there are still people who come to the door this morning to make trouble, brother thinks, this is Brother Cao's territory, even if this matter has nothing to do with Brother Cao, Brother Cao can probably hear some rumors here, so he came to the door and hoped that Brother Cao would give him some advice." ”
Boss Cao frowned invisibly, and glanced at a tall and thin man not far away, the man immediately shook his head, he was responsible for arranging work among the brothers, and he used to do this in order to collect the filial piety silver of the shop, but the brothers have not made a big move in the past few days.
Boss Cao had a bottom in his heart, so he said, "I don't know where Mr.'s shop is?" If there is no filial piety sent every month, the brothers will not pay much attention, and naturally the news will not be well-informed. ”
"The 'wine bite' at the mouth of Bluestone Lane opened more than 20 days ago."
The tall and thin man didn't wait for Boss Cao to ask again, so he replied, "Boss, this shop has not been open for a month, and the brothers haven't gone around yet, but they heard that the food is good, and I went to buy wine a few times before." ”
"Yes," chimed a big man behind him, "especially that chicken paw, it's really chewy to drink." ”
Zhao Feng smiled youngly, "It's good if the brothers like it, when I become the east, everyone will go and sit." ”
The big man who liked wine was happy when he heard this, and just as he was about to respond, he was glared at fiercely by the tall and thin man, lowered his head aggrievedly, moved a few steps back, and muttered, "Why don't you let me say, don't you also praise the pig's trotters for being delicious." ”
The tall and thin man blushed with anger, and wanted to scold him a few words, but Boss Cao's fingers knocked on the table, with an impatient face, "Since filial piety has not been confiscated, Mr.'s shop is none of our business, Mr. should inquire elsewhere." ”
Zhao Fengnian didn't get up, took out a small silver coin from his purse, put it in the palm of his hand and checked it, "What, Boss Cao is afraid that there will be no silver money below?" ”
Boss Cao sneered, "It's just five taels of silver, I just want to..."
He had barely said this, and immediately swallowed it back.
It turned out that the silver was thrown up and down in Zhao Fengnian's hand, the first time it was an ingot, the second time it had a few more deep guidance, the third time it became an ellipse, and the fourth time it became a round ball...
If it is an ordinary person, he can see this, but just praise it, this person is really strong, and the silver can be pinched softly, but he has practiced for a few days like this, but he knows best that such a small trick is a test of finger power and internal strength, and a martial artist who is not a first-class person can't perform it at all.
Zhao Feng pinched the silver ball and looked at it in front of him, and raised his eyebrows a little dissatisfied, "It doesn't seem to be as round as it was before?" ”
As he spoke, he took out a few small silver bills from his purse, and pinched a few more, and he must reach a round posture, Cao Lao let out a long breath, and finally got up and saluted to the ground, very respectful, "The little one just now has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he is offended, don't blame the seniors." ”
Zhao Fengnian stretched out his hand to help him, motioned for him to sit down, and then said, "If someone comes to my territory, I will take such precautions, not to blame." It's the matter of the shop, and Boss Cao has to help, as for the price, I definitely can't lose the brothers. ”
Boss Cao heard him say this, and as soon as he put down Dashi's heart, he became suspicious again, and asked tentatively, "Seniors are so methodical, why..."
"It's inconvenient for me to come forward more, so I ask my brothers to help me run errands, it's not a big deal, just find out where the troublemakers are, what the boss's name is, where he lives, and where he has been going in and out recently."
Boss Cao thought that he wanted his brothers to take revenge with knives, but he didn't expect it to be a search for news, this is a small matter that is caught by hand, that is, don't work hard for money, send it to this master predecessor to do favors, and if there is a big event in the gang in the future, it may also be a shelter.
"The seniors are polite, this is just a trivial matter, where can you afford to help, besides, these people make trouble on our territory, and they don't take our brothers in their eyes, the seniors just don't say it, we have to give them some powerful looks, otherwise, they still think that the brothers are all easy to bully."
The tall and thin man is an old brother who has been with Boss Cao for many years, and the two have a very tacit understanding, and after hearing these words, he guessed that the boss must have a plan, so he hurriedly echoed, "What the boss said is that the seniors can rest assured, the brothers will definitely handle this matter properly." ”
Zhao Fengnian nodded and thanked him, then motioned for the bolt to stand up, and said with a smile, "This is the little shopkeeper of my shop, he has seen the appearance of those people, let him tell his brothers, maybe it will be of some use." ”
The bolt is also a clever one, just now I saw the master's kind of means, I have already thrown my fear to the back of my mind, and at this time, I smiled and smiled and told those big men what they looked like, what clothes they were wearing, and what they said when they arrived at the shop.
Everyone in the room listened, looked at each other, and the tall and thin man said, "I sound like Chu San'er and them in the south of the city." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the man who liked wine before said, "What the second brother said must be right." ”
The man next to him slapped him and laughed and scolded, "You fool has also learned to flatter your second brother?" ”
The man was annoyed by the photo, and said loudly, "I didn't shoot the second brother's ass, I really saw it, yesterday I went to the back alley to spend the night, and I saw that Chu San'er, he ran away as soon as he saw him, I thought he was afraid that I would kick him." ”
Everyone laughed, although this brother is a little silly, but there is always some luck that others don't have, no, Chu San'er showed up in the huge Dongcheng District at night, and he could actually be bumped into by him.
Boss Cao coughed twice, and everyone quieted down, and he said, "Since I know that this matter is related to Chu San'er, the second child, let's arrange it, and report back as soon as there is news." ”
"Yes, big brother." Everyone responded, threw the dice in their hands, and the fish went out of the door, and soon the sound of talking sounded in the yard, and gradually followed the footsteps away, quieting down.
Boss Cao is also a shrewd person, he poured tea for Zhao Fengnian with his own hands, and talked about anecdotes about the rivers and lakes, as well as the division of forces in Lingfeng City, which was also interesting, and before he knew it, an hour passed, and the courtyard became noisy again, and soon the tall and thin man pushed the door in, and said with a smile, "Big brother, sir, things have an eyebrow." ”
Boss Cao nodded, "Tell me." ”
The tall and thin man said, "The matter of Mr. Shop's shop was really done by Chu San'er, it is said that their boss Chen Erpi has recently been close to Xue Qiye of the Golden Building, and has been to the backyard two or three times." ”
"The Golden Building?" Boss Cao put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Zhao Fengnian, "Mr. may not know, the owner of the Golden Building is a noble man from Wudu, and he acts very arrogantly on weekdays, but I don't know how they are eyeing Mr.'s shop, I'm afraid it's a little troublesome." ”
Zhao Fengnian was worried that the instigators behind these troublemakers were his original enemies, or some big force in the tofu business, one of the two was harmful, and the other was difficult to touch, both of which were troublesome, but now it is just a restaurant, even if the main family is from Wudu, it is much easier to solve.
"Bother the brothers to help me find out, where Chen Erpi lives tonight, and after dark, I will come again." As he spoke, he took out all the silver bills in his purse, plus the previous ones, it was thirty taels, and said, "This is for the brothers to buy tea to drink, Boss Cao don't shirk." ”
Boss Cao had already stretched out his hand to push it back, but seeing that there was no false look in Zhao Fengnian's eyes, he hesitated for a moment, and then bowed and said, "Then thank you seniors for your generous gifts." ”
Zhao Fengnian nodded, suddenly remembered something, and whispered two more words, then went out with the bolt, all the way to the city, got on Uncle Liu's sedan chair, and came back.
The little face of the plug was red with excitement, and he was foaming at the mouth, and at the end, his hands were still gesturing vigorously, how round the silver ball was, and how big the big men were so frightened that their mouths opened so much that everyone was amused.
The plug was about to say more, but his stomach gurgled uncontrollably, and he immediately reached out to cover it, and his face turned even redder.
Rui Xue couldn't straighten up with a smile, and said, "Now that things are in order, don't worry, let's eat first." It's not too late to discuss after eating. ”
Cui Niang smiled and spoke, went into the kitchen to help Sister-in-law Wang, scratched her head and went to the front shop with Gao Fuquan.
Zhao Fengnian saw that everyone was scattered, so he grabbed Rui Xue's little hand and put it in the palm of his hand, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, you don't have to worry about me being hurt by the ruffian in the future, right?" ”
Rui Xue withdrew her hand, cautiously glanced at his face, and said as if she was extremely timid, "Well, I'm not worried that you will be hurt by the ruffian, but I am afraid that you will cinch my hand into a ball of silver at night." ”
Zhao Fengnian laughed out loud, his wife can always bring him countless pride and pride.
The laurel tree above his head was trembled by this laughter, fluttering, and a few leaves fell, Rui Xue reached out to take it, and was about to stuff it into his mouth, and said indignantly, "What are you laughing at, I'm serious, you are not allowed to hold me at night." ”
Zhao Fengnian smiled more and more happily, finally stopped, and whispered to her waist, "Don't worry, you and the child are my treasures, where am I willing to hurt." ”
"Hmph, that's pretty much it." Rui Xue raised her eyebrows and smiled, threw away the fallen leaves in her hand, and when her eyes inadvertently swept to the firewood room, she remembered that she had also done a "great feat", so she said, "That Chen Erpi, don't spare him, that person is really vicious, after you left, he also sent someone to drug the clay jar containing the old soup, and I caught it." ”
