11. The God of Food

The entrance of the vegetable market is crowded with people, so naturally they all come to see the excitement. A group of officers and soldiers came slowly, pressing a fat man with a fluffy face. The fat man shouted: "You can't kill me! How can you kill me? If you kill me, you will have one less talent who knows everything about the world's food! You can't kill me!" This fat man is none other than Shen Futing.

The officers and soldiers behind him kicked Shen Futing's leg in the crook of the leg, and Shen Futing fell to his knees with an "oops" and continued to shout: "You can't kill me! You can't kill me! I'm a talent!"

"Talent is a fart!" can only eat, make fun of the lord's merit order, damn it!" the officer and soldier said disdainfully.

Xiao Zhi laughed coldly: "This fat man has a very big tone, he deserves to end up like this." Cheng Sifang sighed: "It's a pity that such a talent is gone." Zhou Chonghan said: "Boss Cheng...... No, boss, what do you say?" Cheng Sifang sighed: "Alas, no matter how much you say, it's useless, he's about to be a dead man." ”

Everyone didn't know why Cheng Quartet said that Shen Futing was a talent, but Zhuge Xu Feng also sighed: "Yes, Cao Cao doesn't know talents, it's a pity." Zhuge Xu Feng also said the same, and everyone was even more curious to ask, how is this Shen Futing, who can only eat, a talent.

But before he could ask, he heard a voice coming: "Lord Supervisor has arrived!" I saw a person walking over slowly, it was none other than Chen Lin.

Cheng Sifang saw that the supervisor was Chen Lin, and laughed and said, "Haha! Shen Futing is saved!" Before everyone could react, Cheng Sifang had already run out and shouted, "Lord Chen! Lord Chen!" Before he could enter the court, Cheng Sifang was stopped by the officers and soldiers with double halberds. Chen Lin saw that it was Cheng Sifang, nodded, and motioned for him to be let in, and the officers and soldiers understood, so that Cheng Sifang entered the law field and walked to Chen Lin's side.

Chen Lin asked, "Boss Cheng, why are you here? Now I want to be beheaded, if you come like this, you may be charged with disturbing the law field if you are not careful." Cheng Sifang took a few breaths and said, "Lord Chen, this person can't be killed, he is a rare talent." Chen Lin was stunned: "Why do you say that? This person can only eat, and he claims to be a talent in front of Cao Gong, which annoys Cao Gong, so he wants to behead him." ”

Cheng Quartet said: "Trouble Lord Chen to ask Cao Gong and start slowly, why this person is a talent, I will explain it in front of Cao Gong." Chen Lin frowned: "This ......" Cheng Quartet knew what Chen Lin was worried about, patted his chest, and said: "If it doesn't make sense, it's a big deal that I will take my life and not do Lord Chen's business." Chen Lin sighed: "Alas, okay. A postponement of the execution was ordered.

Cao Cao's mansion, the group stood outside the door, and only let Cheng Sifang, Xiao Zhihan and the north wind enter. Cao Cao looked disdainful and asked, "Cheng Sifang, I just gave you a little sweetness, and you went to the house to uncover the tiles, right?" ”

Cheng Quartet said: "If Gong Cao listens to me, not only will he not kill me, but he is afraid that he will reward me." Cao Cao had a prejudice against businessmen from the bottom of his heart, and when he heard Cheng Quartet say this, he smiled coldly: "Hmph, you say come and listen, if it makes sense, I will reward you, if it doesn't make sense, I will even want your life!"

"Okay, that's a deal. Cheng Quartet said: "Shen Futing's tongue can justify the world's cuisine, isn't this a unique talent?" Cao Cao seemed to hear a big joke: "Hahaha! This is the talent you are talking about? In today's world, you don't raise rice buckets!"

Cheng Sifang smiled: "To have such a skill, you need to taste the world's food many times, such a picky tongue, how can you sit in Yecheng and practice? However, to taste the world's food, you need to travel all over the world, so ......"

What a smart man Cao Cao was? Cheng Quartet said this, Cao Cao suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, yes! Cheng Sifang continued: "Since Shen Futing has traveled all over the Quartet, he must know the water and soil of all sides, where there are special products, where there are customs, where there are more soldiers, where there are fewer soldiers, where there is more money, and where there is a wide range of food. Is it possible that a person who has all these things in his heart can be compared to a horse outpost? Isn't such a person a talent?"

The more Cao Cao listened, the more surprised he became, and when Shen Futing's skills were halfway through what he heard, Cao Cao was clear. He was surprised that it was not Shen Futing, but Cheng Sifang, a businessman, who actually had such a lofty vision, Cao Cao said in his heart that it was a pity that Cheng Sifang was a talent who only wanted to be a businessman and not to work for himself.

Cao Cao nodded, and said with a sigh: "Boss Cheng, Mr. Cheng, Mr. Cheng's words made me suddenly, why is a talent like Mr. Cheng willing to be a businessman? Cao Cao cherishes talents, Cheng Sifang is a rare talent, Cao Cao very much hopes that Cheng Sifang can work for himself, and even changed his title to "Mr".

Cheng Sifang bowed and said: "Thank you Cao Gong for your love, but everyone has their own ambitions, Cheng Sifang only wants to be a businessman in peace." Cao Cao sighed, very sorry, and said, "Okay, since Mr. Cheng said so, I can't force it." After a pause, he said: "I will do what I say, and if I can make sense, I will reward you, what do you want?"

Cheng Sifang said: "I just need Gong Cao to give me Shen Futing." Cao Cao smiled: "I think that's the case, Mr. Cheng values this person so much, I will hand this person over to you." Cheng Sifang kowtowed and thanked: "Thank you Cao Gong!" Cao Cao made a look, Shen Futing was escorted up, and Cao Cao said: "Untie up." ”

Shen Futing took off his restraints and laughed: "I knew that I was a talent, and you would not kill me." When Chen Lin heard this, he said loudly: "Bold!" Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Shen Futing, if it weren't for Mr. Cheng's intercession for you, your head would have been left at the entrance of the vegetable market!"

Shen Futing glanced at Cheng Sifang and smiled: "It turned out to be you, thank you very much." Cao Cao said again: "Shen Futing, listen, I will spare your life today, but from now on, you need to follow Cheng Boss and help him wholeheartedly, otherwise, I will kill you!"

Shen Futing was stunned: "He, why? The person I want to serve is you, not this guy." Shen Futing's words were so arrogant that Chen Lin on the side couldn't listen to them, not to mention Xiao Zhihan and Xiang Beifeng? Xiao Zhihan said angrily: "You dead fat man, don't you know who saved you?"

Shen Futing stood proudly: "I didn't ask him to save me." Cheng Sifang smiled and said: "Brother Shen, no matter what, I saved your life, I have a life-saving grace for you, what do you use to repay me?"

When Xiang Beifeng heard this, he was somehow so familiar, but Xiao Zhihan remembered clearly that Cheng Sifang used this trick to collect Xiang Beifeng.

Shen Futing didn't go to the north wind, but said: "I didn't ask you to save me, you were self-inflicted, why should I listen to you?" In front of Cao Cao, Shen Futing still dared to say such things, Cao Cao only waved his hand, and Shen Futing was wiped out, but Cao Cao didn't do it, he wanted to see how Cheng Quartet cleaned up the situation.

I only heard Cheng Quartet: "Let me ask you, how much does it cost to practice a tongue like yours?" Shen Futing frowned, and said: "Travel all over the world, taste delicious food, and turn around, at least five thousand taels of silver, to practice a skill like mine, it is impossible without fifty thousand taels of silver." ”

Cheng Sifang nodded: "That's it, your precious tongue was saved by me, and it is worth 50,000 taels of silver, right? ”

When Shen Futing heard this, he shouted: "What? 50,000 taels of silver? Where do I have so much money?" Cheng Quartet said: "Then I don't care, anyway, you owe me a life, either follow me or give me money." Shen Futing sighed: "It's really an authentic businessman." He said very reluctantly: "Okay, okay, I'll just go with you!" But I said in front, my tongue is very picky!" Cheng Sifang smiled: "As long as you help me make money, I can say anything I want to eat." ”

Cheng Sifang and the others said goodbye to Cao Cao and left, and Cao Cao sighed: "What a talent, it's a pity not to be used by me." Chen Lin said: "He provided us with a good pen, which can be regarded as the master's use." Cao Cao smiled bitterly, and had to comfort himself with these words.

Out of the mansion, Zhou Chonghan and the others were already very anxious, seeing Cheng Quartet come out, with joy on their faces, they knew that the matter was done, Zhou Chonghan laughed and said: "It is worthy of being the boss, even Cao Cao can handle it!" Cheng Sifang said: "Okay, now Shen Futing is also our partner." Zhuge Xu Feng said: "As soon as the boss enters and exits, he has one more talent, congratulations." Shen Futing was caught by the handle and had to follow Cheng Quartet with an unhappy face.

Cheng Sifang said: "Okay, let's hurry to Pingxian County and collect the pen yard." Everyone answered, and went to Pingxian with Cheng Quartet.

Cheng Quartet first accepted Xiao Zhihan, and then closed to the north wind, and convinced the north wind with his excellent business acumen, and let the north wind spread himself, and let the people of Suomeitang follow him. In this way, Cheng Sifang has the support of the top ten masters of Suomeitang, and it can be regarded as an official caravan. And the first big business has also been done, as a special supplier of pens for Cao Cao's forces, this business can already make Cheng Quartet make a lot of money.

Cheng Sifang himself did not expect that his business path would be so smooth. Cheng Sifang bought commercial vehicles and horses, purchased a batch of goods in Yecheng, and went to Pingxian with everyone in high spirits.

As soon as he left the city gate, a person appeared near the city gate, looked at the four directions, smiled coldly, and turned to leave. But this behavior couldn't escape Xiao Zhihan's eyes, Xiao Zhihan said softly: "Boss, someone is following us." Cheng Quartet was stunned: "Tracking, what do we have to follow?" Zhuge Xu Feng said: "The boss has become Cao Cao's pen supplier, naturally there will be people who are red-eyed, and you need to be careful." Xiao Zhihan said: "I'll take a look." With that, he jumped out of the carriage, shook around the central district, and then came back, jumped into the carriage, and said, "I didn't find it." ”

Cheng Sifang thought about it carefully, was startled, and hurriedly said: "Hurry, go at full speed, and rush to Pingxian as soon as possible!"
