Chapter 7: You won't be able to save face

Chapter 132: You won't be useful for giving you face

Early morning.

Guo Dalu led a mule with a sad face, and the mule dragged a cart full of vegetables.

He was in charge of purchasing, and every morning he had to go to the market and haul back a truckload of fresh vegetables to the back kitchen, and then do some chores to wash dishes and serve vegetables.

But now there are five more boxes in the vegetable pile.

He opened the box, but closed it immediately.

He couldn't understand why someone would hide five chests of gold and silver jewelry in someone else's cart.

The wheels creaked on the street, and Guo Dalu always felt that the eyes of passers-by were all on him.

Fortunately, Shui Yunjian arrived soon, and he also saw Yan Qi and Lin Taiping who were busy opening the door, and hurriedly hinted that the two of them would come to help.

Yan Qi saw Guo Dalu's hesitation, rushed out of the door, and soon saw the box that should not appear on the cart.

"What is this?"

Guo Dalu scratched his head: "I saw a woman on the road, she was carrying two children by her side. ”

Yan Qi glared: "So you can't walk when you see a woman?" ”

Guo Dalu: "No, I just gave her all the silver on my body, and I also took her and the child to eat steamed buns." ”

Turning his head to look at the cart, Guo Dalu became distressed: "When I came back, I found that there were five more boxes in the vegetable pile. ”

Lin Taiping's face turned blue: "You gave all the monthly money to others again, this doesn't mean that we have to drink a lot less this month!" ”

Li Chaofeng only cares about them gambling, but does not restrict them from drinking and eating meat.

When the four drunkards got together, even if they didn't gamble, they spent money like running water, and they had very little silver on them.

At the beginning of the month, they would drink all kinds of wine and eat roast duck on the second floor of Shuiyunjian.

In the middle of the month, they can only quench their thirst by looking at the moro, and sigh where the money has gone.

Guo Dalu doesn't need to sigh, generally speaking, his money has always been given away, and he even choked on wine.

Saving money does not exist, so Li Chaofeng opened a restaurant, eating and drinking casually, otherwise they would have to starve before the end of the month.

Guo Dalu smiled, he had no money on him, but Wang Dong had not spent their monthly money yet, so he could still drink alcohol.

Guo Dalu nodded, looked at Shui Yunjian with some cringe, and asked.

"Is the boss there?"

Yan Qi glared: "No, there seems to be a problem with the koji in the winery, and the boss wants to go and see what is wrong." ”

Looking at the big box, and then looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, Yan Qi also proposed to Guo Dalu.

"Move this box into the backyard first, and then think about what to do with it when the boss comes back."

Guo Dalu nodded, he had indeed never encountered such a thing, but he never thought of running away with a box alone.

He'd seen the contents of the box, it was full of countless jewelry, and it was worth a lot.

Guo Dalu led the mule around the backyard, and Wang Dong, who was busy in the back kitchen, also heard the movement and quickly followed.

When the boxes were completely opened, Yan Qi and the three of them were all shocked, and the five boxes were full of all kinds of gold and silver jewelry.

Yan Qi remembered something: "Yesterday, it seems that some diners said, "Chickens and dogs don't stay" Feng Qiwu has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, the things in this box, is it?"

Wang Dong looked at Guo Dalu's innocent eyes, and shook his head again and again: "It seems that you have found a big trouble for the boss." ”

Lin Taiping didn't care much, just smiled.

"It doesn't matter, as long as the boss is still there, there won't be many troubles in the world that he can't solve."

Buckle up the box, unload the box cart, and the four of them just casually piled up in the backyard.

The four of them didn't even have much to chat, and began to prepare for business.

After Wang Dong took over the work of the cook, Li Chaofeng, the shopkeeper, didn't pay much attention to the business of Shui Yunjian.

He would go to see the various workshops and meet the landlords in various places.

The supply channel in the northwest direction of Li Chaofeng has been stabilized, but the suppliers in the southeast are not familiar enough.

So he started to get busy.

Without Li Chaofeng, the water and clouds have almost become the territory of the king.

No one is restrained, but it is also free.

There is a lot of work in the restaurant, and they don't get much to get their hands on, but they are very down-to-earth.

Because this is the income of labor.

Yan Qi and the others are also busy, there are wines and dishes in the water and clouds, and after a few months, they have also become a little famous.

In the evening, when Yan Qi was about to close the door, Shui Yun broke into the two public gates, followed by a man in black.

Yan Qi quickly recognized the two public men.

The thin one is the head catcher in Qinghe County, the clamp stick, also called the stick.

Dressed in gold is the chief catcher of the nine provinces, the golden lion.

Because of its keen sense of smell, it is often called a golden retriever.

The man in black carried a four-foot-seven-inch long sword on his back, which was the characteristic of Nangong Chou, the "wandering soul at the bottom of the sword".

But Yan Qi knew very well that this person was not Nangong Chou, because she was Nangong Chou's daughter.

Recognizing people on the rivers and lakes is mostly a feature.

So it's easy to disguise a famous Jianghu person.

The three of them walked into the clean water and clouds, nodded with a stick, looked at Guo Dalu, and asked with a gloomy face.

"You guys towed a cart of vegetables today?"

Guo Dalu was shocked, and Yan Qi's expression also changed, but he quickly understood what these two people meant, and he didn't even come out of the counter, and replied directly.

"Can't a cart haul vegetables?"

Stick: "Of course the cart can haul the vegetables, but we think there's something in the vegetables." ”

Guo Dalu's heart trembled, because the boss hadn't come back yet, but Yan Qi had already replied with a smile.

"Of course there are still vegetables in the vegetables, how can there be anything else?"

The clamp stick smiled: "No, there is only a plate cart of vegetables, and the marks left will not be so heavy." ”

Wang Dong walked out of the back kitchen, wiped his hands with a cotton towel, and replied.

"No matter how heavy the traces are, they are just vegetables."

The stick looked at Wang Dong with an indifferent look, and then looked at the unconvinced eyes of the other three people, and smiled.

"You're very bold."

Is Wang bold?

Big.

Because he is the king of the soaring eagles, the last business of the five of them is to grab the Shaolin cheats.

But now Wang Dong has stopped, and he doesn't like to use violence to solve problems, let alone be so bold in the face of the public.

But this is the Shuiyunjian Restaurant.

A place where not only thieves dare not steal, but even the government does not dare to come to collect taxes.

Wang Dong and the four of them have never checked the details of their boss, but they are not stupid, and they have long seen that Li Chaofeng has an extraordinary background.

That is, the clamping stick and the golden lion came from other places, so they didn't know the bottom of the water and clouds.

The clamp stick was about to exert his might, but the golden lion interrupted with a smile: "What about the boss?" ”

Guo Dalu replied: "The boss went out and didn't come back." ”

The golden lion smiled and asked, "How old is the boss?" ”

Guo Dalu replied: "Twenty." ”

The golden lion looked up at the third floor of the restaurant, and couldn't look at Wang Dong in his thirties, but he smiled.

"In such a big restaurant, the owner is only twenty, I don't believe it."

Yan Qi interjected: "Believe it or not, our boss is only twenty years old. ”

"Bang!" With a bang, the water and fire sticks of the clamping stick landed on the table, making everyone's eyes look over.

"When will he come back!"

The martial arts of the stick are not high, not to mention Wang Dong or Lin Taiping, even Guo Dalu and Yan Qi can be dealt with casually.

It's just that they are clothed in public robes, but they don't dare to move.

Wang wiped his hands with a cotton towel, raised his eyes slightly, and replied.

"I don't know, he's the boss and we're buddies."

"Dude just needs to keep the business good and doesn't need to know when the boss will come back."

The golden lion sat down, poured out three bowls of tea by himself, nodded, and smiled gently at the clamping stick.

"We can wait!"

Lin Taiping looked at the footprints on the ground with disgust, because the door was about to close, so he had already dragged the floor over.

No matter how bold the customer is before closing, he is not very popular.

And the three people in front of them are not even customers.

All seven of them fell silent, and soon, footsteps were heard at the door, and a man pushed the door open.

Very tall, very strong, dressed in blue clothes, hair half-spread, and a white jade gourd pinned to his waist.

Li Chaofeng came back on horseback, and saw that the restaurant that should have been closed a long time ago was still lit with a lot of oil lamps, and knew that the guests had not left clean.

When he walked in the door, he also saw three people who he had some impressions of.

Mei Rujia squinted, he recognized Li Chaofeng's characteristics, but he was not sure enough.

He can pretend that Nangong is ugly, and others can naturally pretend to be the son of Yuanlong.

But someone recognized Li Chaofeng, that is, the chief catcher of the nine provinces, the golden lion.

The records of the six doors not only record features, but also portraits.

Li Chaofeng took out the white jade gourd, took a shallow sip of wine, and then spoke lightly, startling Wang Dong and the four of them.

"Get out."

Hearing the fluttering word "roll", the clamp was very angry, the man in black narrowed his eyes slightly, and his hand was already on the sword.

But the golden lion has no temper and is just an arch hand.

"Okay!"

The current golden lion really resembles a poodle.
