Chapter Forty-Six: Licking the Night Pot
After licking the fragments of the overnight pot, the shopkeeper Tong sighed a few times and savored it carefully.
Then, he smiled triumphantly at me and said confidently: "Boss Huo, I'll pack the ticket!" This is a night pot produced in Jingdezhen, not an antique, not even a high imitation, at best...... Fifty bucks. ”
Listening to the words of the shopkeeper Tong, I turned around and said to the little miscellaneous hair: "Do you hear? Our most authoritative antique expert has tasted it, and it is only worth fifty! I will accompany you fifty-two, and the extra two yuan, you can take it away to make a car, how about it?"
Seeing that his trick of touching porcelain was discovered, Xiao Zamao was unwilling to say: "I don't accept it! This is a real antique, which was handed down by my grandfather's grandfather!"
"! It's an antique for a long time? That only means that your grandfather's grandfather was fake when he bought it!" I snorted coldly, and while taking out fifty-two yuan from my pocket, I asked him, "Fifty-two, do you want to take it?" If you don't call me a policeman, I will follow you to the end, and we will accompany you in both the underworld and the white way. ”
After listening to my words, he had already touched a small gray nose and completely recognized it, and he took my fifty-two, gray and mixed into the crowd, and soon disappeared.
After Xiao Zamao left, I smiled at the shopkeeper, then patted him on the shoulder and told him to go back and rinse his mouth, and then come to my restaurant for dinner in the evening.
After saying to the shopkeeper Tong, I turned around and walked back to the hotel, wanting to see how the frightened Rui Mujun was.
As soon as I entered the hotel, I saw Rui Mujun sitting in the innermost seat on the first floor, his face full of fear and anxiety that had not completely subsided.
Around her, surrounded by the fourth child and Meizi, everyone couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw me.
I understand that it is clear that Ruimujun is in a particularly bad mental state, and judging by the reddened marks on her skin, her body must have been burned by the sun's rays.
Seeing Rui Mujun's weakened state, my pity was spontaneous, and I decided to walk over and comfort a few words.
While asking Meizi to help fetch cold water and wipe her skin, I sat next to her and comforted her in a low voice: "Seventh sister, you come in broad daylight, why don't you bring a bodyguard or make a ward in advance?
Listening to my questioning, Chen Qiqiao, who was shocked, stumbled and told me, "I'm not afraid of him...... The sun is too strong...... I'm sick!"
As he spoke, Rui Mujun raised his eyes, looked at the wooden door in the basement of my hotel, and said, "Boss Huo, why are you taking me to the basement? I really can't stand such a strong light......! My skin hurts. ”
Rui Mujun's words moved everyone present, and then I nodded, took a wet towel to help her cover her face, and helped Chen Qiqiao walk down the kitchen of my hotel.
When I helped Rui Mujun into the basement, I was also very conflicted in my heart, because on the one hand, this woman had really hurt my feelings and my business, which made me very annoying, and on the other hand, as a patient who was so weak, I couldn't bear to watch her suffer like this.
With such tangled feelings, I helped the owner of the ship and walked down the basement.
In my kitchen, the new chef Wang Chongguang was cooking by the fire at the moment, and he was a little surprised to see me help such a white-haired woman into the house.
Surprised, Wang Chongguang, who was guarding the fire, asked me, "Who is this eldest sister ......?"
I smiled helplessly, and then introduced to him: "A friend of mine is also a big boss, named Chen Qiqiao, and she is a little ...... Suffering from heat stroke, I took her to the basement to rest and cool off. ”
"Yo, you have to take care of it!" Wang Chongguang smiled back at Rui Mujun as he spoke.
At this time, Rui Mujun's whole person was relieved a little from the malaise just now, her skin was no longer red, and her eyes were completely open, obviously very adapted to the dim light in the basement of our hotel.
After letting out a sigh, Rui Mujun reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Boss Huo, thank you, I'm much better now, but I'm still a little disgusting, so ...... Can you do me a favor?"
Listening to her words, I nodded naturally, and then asked her what she commanded.
When asked, Rui Mujun told me, "I want to be quiet, so can you let your chef friend go out?" ”
Rui Mujun's request, although a bit tough, but not excessive, so I thought about it for a while, and then instructed Chef Wang to go out after making the last dish.
I didn't think that Wang Chongguang listened to my words, and a bad expression quickly dropped on his originally smiling face.
He pointed to the stove and told me very hard: "No, Boss Huo, I haven't made the dishes of the three guests, and if you leave rashly, the guests will scold." ”
Listening to Chef Wang's words, I was stunned for a moment, and I felt that what he said also made some sense.
This time, it's hard for me.
On the one hand, I don't want to offend the guests, and on the other hand, I don't want to embarrass the sick Ruimujun, and these two sides ...... Now it seems that there will always be one of my offenses.
Because I was embarrassed, my expression was also very embarrassed, and Ruimujun looked at my bad appearance, so he opened his mouth and made a compromise suggestion to me.
She told me, "Boss Huo, since you feel that it is difficult to do it, how about listening to me? I will only rest for ten minutes, and if you don't mind the remaining three dishes, will the old sister replace your cook?"
"You do?" Wang Chongguang and I were surprised at the same time.
When asked, Rui Mujun nodded, and said, "What's the matter, you doubt my ability?"
Listening to Rui Mujun's questioning, I hurriedly shook my head and said, "Seventh Sister's cooking skills, I will never dare to doubt it...... I was just...... I'm afraid you're in trouble. ”
At this moment, Rui Mujun, who had recovered a little of his former domineering, smiled and said: "I'm not too troublesome to cook, but it's troublesome for you to watch?"
Listening to Rui Mujun's resolute words, I didn't want to give anything to me, so I had to nod and agree to Rui Mujun's meaning.
After that, I asked Wang Chongguang to go up and rest, and I stayed alone.
The reason why I stayed was because I was afraid that Rui Mujun would have another accident, and secondly, I was very curious to see what was unique about this woman's cooking, which could hold up half the sky on the laughing fisherman.
After Wang Chongguang left, Rui Mujun closed her eyes for more than ten seconds, and then when she suddenly opened her eyes again, she finally completely regained her original wisdom and sharpness.
After sitting up slightly straight, Rui Mujun first thanked me and said, "Boss Huo! First of all, I thank you for helping me out of the siege. But there's one thing I don't quite understand, can you tell me?"
