After that, "You Jar Aged Vinegar" and "Lao Tan Aged Vinegar" began to have a fierce price war.

The price of vinegar plummeted, and the greedy people almost broke their legs between the two families.

"Thirteen texts!" "Twelve texts. ”

"Eleven Wen!" "Ten Wen. ”

"Jiuwen!" "Bawen. ”

Three days later, the price of aged vinegar had dropped to an almost impossible level.

But "Old Tan Chen Vinegar" did not flinch, and at dusk, Tan Laoxi, as the shopkeeper, personally walked to the street and offered a lower price, "Five cents!

This sentence, like a muffled thunder, resounded throughout the street, making everyone startled.

Then Tan Laoxi looked at Song Daquan coldly, and said word by word: "Boss Song, if you can still descend, continue to descend." I, Tan Laoxi, put down my words today, if I am afraid of you, I am my grandson. ”

"Huh. Song Daquan smiled slightly, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Tan Laoxi, "Boss Tan, you are serious." ”

"Hmph, you don't know what to say, anyway, I, Tan Laoxi, am not afraid of you, what means do you have, even if you take it out, I will take it all. I don't believe that your bankrupt settlement more than a month and a half ago can compare to the 20-year-old store that my family has opened?"

"Huh. Song Daquan continued to laugh, and after laughing, he looked at Tan Laoxi with a solemn face and asked, "Boss Tan, has your vinegar really dropped to five cents a catty?"

"Hmph, you don't have to work hard to drop like this, I'm still too hard. I'll drop three documents directly this time, and if you can do it, you can also drop three articles. ”

"Really Wuwen?" Song Daquan asked again, as if he didn't believe the other party's words at all.

Tan Laoxi's face showed a little gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "If you say five cents, it is five cents, and the ten major jars of aged vinegar in my store are all five cents!"

"Then Boss Tan, you are really bold, I, Song Daquan, am ashamed of myself. Song Daquan laughed again.

Tan Laoxi glanced at Song Daquan, frowned slightly, and felt that the other party's words were a little wrong, but he didn't think much about it, just snorted coldly and walked back.

But the corners of Huang Daquan's mouth curled slightly, and then he looked at the guy on the side, and the guy immediately ran towards the backyard of the restaurant with understanding.

After half a ring, when Tan Laoxi had just returned to the store, five carriages arrived at the door of "Old Tan Chen Vinegar".

On top of each carriage were two purple-black vats, exactly ten vats.

"Huh?" Tan Laoxi frowned slightly, and then saw Song Daquan sitting in the first carriage.

Song Daquan smiled, jumped out of the carriage directly, walked in front of Tan Laoxi and said, "Boss Tan, I heard that you are cheap here, so I came to buy vinegar." Didn't you say that there are ten jars of vinegar, and I will buy ten jars. The money is all brought, and you will have a lot of money to keep it. ”

Tan Laoxi's face changed, and Song Daquan continued without giving a chance at all: "What's the matter?

"No!" Tan Laoxi squeezed out two words from between his teeth.

"It's good if I don't regret it, then I'll move the vinegar?" Huang Daquan cast an inquiring glance at Tan Laoxi, but before the other party could answer, he waved his hand and let the dozen or so guys he brought rush into the store of "Laotan Chen Vinegar".

An hour later, the five carriages returned with a full load, leaving only Tan Laoxi, who was pale at the door.

"Song Daquan, you turtle son bastard!" Tan Laoxi scolded, but after scolding, he hurriedly found the guys in his shop and ordered: "You immediately set up the carriage and hurry up to the 'vat of aged vinegar'." As soon as they unload the vinegar jar from the wagon, you will buy it at once and bring it all back. ”

"But they're selling for eight cents!" said one of the fellows.

Tan Laoxi's face darkened slightly, he took a long breath, and said hatefully: "We have to buy it back, otherwise we won't have vinegar to sell." ”

At this moment, Tan Laoxi's intestines are all repentant, do you have nothing to do and compare with Song Daquan to reduce the price, but you fell into it. Then Song Daquan is also yes, the price will be reduced, how can he suddenly do this kind of thing of drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle, it is damn it, I didn't expect it.

Thinking of this, Tan Laoxi's eyes suddenly flashed, and he turned his head sharply to look at the guy on the side: "By the way, Song Daquan can buy as many jars of vinegar as he has there, he doesn't show mercy to us, and we don't have to be polite to him." Bawen, just Bawen, when we buy it back, we will increase the price, I want to see what they do at that time!"

"Good. The men nodded, hurriedly set up the carriage, and walked towards the "vat of aged vinegar".

But it was only a stick of incense, and the group returned the same way and brought back a devastating bad news to Tan Laoxi: "Shopkeeper, that Song Daquan is too human, he has already increased the price." ”

"It's already up...... Has the price increased?" Tan Laoxi's face changed suddenly, and he asked with a little nervousness, "How much has it risen?"

"Eight...... Eighty texts. The guy swallowed before he spoke.

After Tan Laoxi listened, his body shook and he almost fell. After finally standing firmly, he gritted his teeth vigorously and said coldly: "Okay, Song Daquan, you are ruthless!"

"And what do we do now, shopkeeper?" asked the man cautiously.

Tan Laoxi was silent for a long time, forcibly regained his composure, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be afraid, it's just ten jars of old vinegar, not much money, and it can't hurt our vitality." In the vinegar shop, the least valuable thing is vinegar. As long as you are there and there is a vinegar master, you can continue to make vinegar. ”

"Didn't he buy all of our vinegar, let's make new vinegar, I don't believe they can buy it again!" Tan Laoxi almost shouted out at the end, and then strode into the backyard.

"Steward Li, you take out the vinegar koji and prepare to make vinegar. ”

"Good. An old man in his sixties nodded and walked towards the room.

"Wang Ledger, you invite the vinegar master over. ”

"Okay. The bookkeeper nodded solemnly and walked towards the door.

"Wait five, you clean the storeroom, and prepare the materials for vinegar brewing. ”

"Understood. Hou Wu also nodded, but suddenly seemed to think of something, and his body that was about to walk stiffened slightly, and then looked at Tan Laoxi with a somewhat strange gaze, "The shopkeeper's ......"

"Huh?" Tan Laoxi frowned slightly, looked at Hou Wu who was standing still, and asked, "Do you have something?"

"The shopkeeper, it seems that in our warehouse, there is no wheat bran for vinegar. ”

"If you don't have it, buy it!" Tan Laoxi, who was already angry, immediately shouted loudly, if he didn't care that the other party was a buddy who had been with him for more than ten years, he would have kicked it over.

But Hou Wu still didn't move, just swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Actually, two days ago, I wanted to buy a new batch of wheat bran to supplement, but I found that there was no wheat bran sold in the entire Ping'an County. But now it seems like ......"

"What does it look like?" Tan Laoxi's gaze had become solemn.

"It seems that someone deliberately bought them all to calculate us. Hou Wu couldn't help but fight a cold war, and said what he felt a little unbelievable.

"Really bought them all?" Tan Laoxi's voice was a little cold.

And Hou Wu just nodded desperately and said, "It's true." ”

"Then it can only be Huang Daquan's doing. ”

"Also...... Maybe. Hou Wu whispered.

"Huh. Tan Laoxi's face was already full of a wry smile, and then he closed his eyes in pain, "What a deep scheming, I am not wronged!"

In the backyard of "Youjia Restaurant", Sun Li was looking at the pale yellow wheat bran full of houses and smiling. Huang Daquan behind him was already so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth, "Sun Gongzi, did you think of Tan Laoxi's situation today when you asked me to buy wheat bran?"

"It's not like that, it's just a little more preparation, but now it seems that the effort has not been in vain. Okay, it's almost time now, you go and ask Tan Laoxi to come over to negotiate. ”

"Good. Huang Daquan nodded, walked out, and then the door of "Old Tan Chen Vinegar" was knocked.

"Shopkeeper, Huang Daquan is here, saying that he is negotiating with you. A guy ran up to Tan Laoxi and whispered.

Tan Laoxi slowly opened his eyes and sneered: "What are you negotiating, you want to buy my shop for negotiation?"

Suddenly, the entire backyard was silent.

After a long time, the eldest housekeeper Xu was the first to speak: "Actually, we can buy some aged vinegar from other vinegar shops for emergencies, and wait until the new wheat comes down in a month, and then we will have wheat bran to make vinegar." ”

"It's useless. Tan Laoxi shook his head slowly, looked at Steward Xu and said, "Since Huang Daquan can take away all the wheat bran, it is impossible not to think of this step." In fact, I wonder if the other vinegar shops have reached some agreement with Huang Daquan to bring down our old Tan Chen vinegar. ”

"How come?" Steward Xu was slightly startled.

But Tan Laoxi chuckled lightly and said, "No? Then you tell me, where did Song Daquan buy the vat of vinegar that he sold at the beginning, anyway, I haven't received any news so far." ”

As soon as Tan Laoxi's words came out, everyone suddenly despaired, looked at each other, and then fell into a deathly silence.

After a long time, Tan Laoxi made the final decision, "Okay, I'll negotiate with him, doesn't he want a store, I'll give it to him." ”

"No!" Steward Xu refused: "Shopkeeper, even if we don't have vinegar to sell, we can survive." ”

"Is it meaningful to hold on?" Tan Laoxi sneered, "Is there any point in holding on to a vinegar shop that doesn't sell vinegar? It is to hold on until a month later, when the new wheat comes down and the new vinegar is brewed, how much business will we have left at that time." Besides, Huang Daquan can calculate everywhere now, and after a month, he can't continue to calculate us?"

"But the shopkeeper, this vinegar shop is the family business left by the old shopkeeper, is it possible to achieve such a failure?"

"What can I do, my skills are not as good as others, I am willing to gamble and lose. Of course, I won't let Huang Daquan get it easily, even if it's to do the last thing for my dad. Tan Laoxi said softly, his face calm, but a trace of palpitating coldness flashed in the deepest part of his eyes.

"Okay. The crowd compromised.

And Sun Li, who was in a restaurant, stretched his waist with a feeling, looked at Nie Xiaoqian on the side, and said softly: "At this time, Tan Laoxi should almost be in contact with Boss Song, and the overall situation has been decided." ”

"Then, we can get the Dao Yuan card, right?" Nie Xiaoqian said.

Sun Li nodded, "There is no accident, when the Dao Yuan card is issued tomorrow, we will be able to get one, and then we will be able to smoothly blend into Jinhua Mountain, which is worthy of so many days of effort." ”

"To be honest, I'm not really interested in this kind of intrigue. If it weren't for the scruples of rashly making a move, it might be found by Jinhuashan. I really want to go directly to the 'old Tan Chen vinegar' in the middle of the night to visit Tan Laoxi, and put a steel knife on it, not afraid that he won't hand over the store. ”

Nie Xiaoqian glanced over dissatisfied, "Aren't you afraid that the other party will report to the official?"

"Now, the government's arrest will have no effect on the two of us. Sun Li couldn't help but think of the two people who intimidated Wu Fugui when Song Daquan invited him, and the strength of the other party was just a little stronger than normal people, and there was no threat to his current self at all.

"Don't be careless. Nie Xiaoqian reminded with a solemn face, "The ordinary catchers in the government are not capable, but some of them have real skills, and many of them are cultivators. I remember that my grandmother told me that there was once a head catcher, a lay disciple of Jinhua Mountain, and her strength could threaten her. ”

"Really?" Sun Li was slightly startled, it was really a bit terrifying to be able to threaten the old tree demon, how could it be cultivated to be a spiritual realm.

"Actually, not only these headhunters, but also some rangers who walk the world, and their strength is also extraordinary. Once we really anger the government and issue arrest documents from all over the world, maybe a large group of cultivators will come to us for trouble. ”

"Oh, I see. In other words, no matter how high your cultivation is, you can't do evil, right?"

"Of course, otherwise why don't you think the demons and monsters in the forest don't come out to plague the world, it's not because you don't dare. If you dare to mess around, the end will definitely be miserable......"

"Okay, okay, senior sister, I know, I will definitely not mess around. Sun Li waved his hand again and again to stop Nie Xiaoqian from continuing, and said, "As long as no one provokes me, I must not take the initiative to find trouble, I must abide by my duty and be an honest ordinary person, this is always okay." ”

"That's pretty much it. Nie Xiaoqian said softly.

On the other side, the door of the store of "Old Tan Chen Vinegar" opened, and Tan Laoxi walked out expressionlessly and looked at Song Daquan outside the door.
