Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

But it's useless, steamed buns are our secret recipe, and no one can take it away. "

"What Wang Xiancheng? No, shopkeeper Du, you misunderstood, we" Li Zhen heard something wrong, and wanted to refute.

"It's really funny, it's really good acting! Isn't it embarrassing to be seen through? Wait for me to send you away? There is no secret recipe, get out!" Du Shaoqing yelled.

Being scolded by an innkeeper pointing his nose, Cheng Chumo had a bad temper and went into a rage on the spot: "Boy, do you know who we are? The young master is Cheng Chumo, the eldest son of Duke Lu of Chang'an, and this is Li Zhen, the eldest son of the British Duke. You are a small merchant. How dare you speak to us like that?"

"Hahahaha, it's really funny, you two are really brave, who is this person that Wang Xiancheng is looking for, a young man who dares to pretend to be a high official? You really don't know what to do. Besides, you The boy looks at least 40 years old, and he is still the son of Lu Guogong? Are you ashamed to be tender?

Go back and tell those surnamed Wang and that surnamed Huang that they want the secret recipe of steamed buns, dreaming!

It's good to leave, if I don't leave, I won't look good. "

You, Cheng Chumo, rolled up your sleeves and wanted to come up to fight, but Li Zhen hurriedly stopped you and dragged you out of the inn. It was obvious that there was a misunderstanding.

"Xiaozhen, what are you pulling me for? This guy is rude, you let me go and find out first." Cheng Chumo broke free outside the door and shouted.

"Chu Mo, we are here to buy the secret recipe, not to fight or bully others.

In the situation just now, shopkeeper Du obviously misunderstood something, saying that we are from Wang Xiancheng, and there must be some other changes. Let's investigate clearly first.

If you beat someone directly, and the other party doesn't sell us the secret recipe in a fit of rage, we won't be able to go back to do business. "

Hearing this, Cheng Chumo calmed down and nodded, "It's okay, it's okay, this is a matter related to the future of our brothers, and we can't let someone screw it up."

"Come on, it's time for dinner. I'm just hungry. Let's go eat something first. In the afternoon, we'll find out what happened at Yunlai Inn."

The two went to the only restaurant in the town together, Shengcai Restaurant, and saw that almost everyone was eating steamed buns with one hand, and the two brothers followed suit.

"Hey, don't even mention it, this steamed bun is really good for dinner, but the food and drinks here are not very tasty, it's a fly in the ointment!" Cheng Chumo complained.

"Haha, won't we have everything when we bring the steamed buns to Chang'an? Hurry up and finish the meal so we can work."

The restaurant has always been the place with the widest news, the gateway to eating, there are all kinds of people in the town, and people like to talk about it, so the two brothers soon heard useful news.

Chapter 13 A good show

"I think the Du family can't handle it this time, and their arms can't twist their thighs. Shopkeeper Huang invited Wang Xiancheng to do it himself." A diner smacked his lips.

"Otherwise, I heard that although shopkeeper Xiao Du is young, he has a strong backbone and said that he would rather die than hand over the secret recipe. Wang Xiancheng should not dare to be too extreme."

At this time, a diner who seemed to be in the know said firmly: "No? I'm afraid you don't know. The steamed bun is a chicken that can lay golden eggs. It is said that the Du family now earns one tael of silver a day. How much is it this year? ? Who is not jealous?"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience fell silent, one tael of silver a day?What kind of concept is this? In this poor and dregs town, it is definitely a huge sum of money.

Li Zhen nodded. It seems that the Du family's desire to guard the steamed bun business is not unreasonable.

"It seems that someone has also taken a fancy to the steamed bun formula. Fortunately, we came in time, and we almost got there first." Li Zhen whispered.

Cheng Chumo showed disdain on his face, "A group of country bumpkins who have never seen money, what is one or two a day? But if anyone dares to come here to take credit from the young master, he will definitely not bear it."

This is because the people in the town are ignorant and only care about spreading rumors. If the Du family can really earn a tael of silver a day, would they be so cautious?

"When I came to eat, I saw the shopkeeper Huang took the county magistrate to Mr. Tian's house. I'm afraid it was to discuss how to deal with the Du family. I heard that the ancestral house of the Du family was sold to Mr. Tian before."

"It's possible. If the county magistrate gets that house in exchange, I'm afraid the Du family will have to hand over the steamed bun formula. Who can tolerate the ancestral house being taken away?"

Hearing this, the two of Li Zhen couldn't eat anymore, they got up and left, since they can exchange for the steamed bun formula by taking down a house, can such a good way be given to others?Just a small county magistrate.

But when the two arrived at Master Tian's house, they were still a step late. The county magistrate and shopkeeper Huang had already left, and they left with the house deed of Yunlai Inn.

At this moment in the Yunlai Inn, Huang Shengcai was sitting in the lobby with Wang Xiancheng on airs, and the Du family was standing neatly opposite to the two of them. It was lunch time, so there were no onlookers .

There is a long low case between the two sides, on which is a house deed that looks old.

Uncle Du creaked his fists and clenched his teeth, but said nothing. Aunt Du firmly held down his son Du Shaoming. This young man was immature and most impulsive.

But Du Shaoqing, the former nerd, now became the backbone of the Du family, standing in front of several people, facing the shopkeeper Huang and Wang Xiancheng.

"Wang Xiancheng, are you really going to kill me with the Du family? This is my ancestral house, and there is an ancestral tablet enshrined behind it. Don't you think this is a bit insulting to your official uniform?" Du Shaoqing asked, staring at the county magistrate.

But the man smiled disdainfully: "The official said that steamed buns can benefit the people under the county government, which is a merit.

Besides, we are exchanging your family's house, so it can be regarded as helping the Du family redeem the ancestral house from Tian Dahu's house, why?On the contrary, we still have it, don't we? "

Uncle Du said coldly: "Take my family's things in exchange for my family's secret recipe. You have a good plan. I'm afraid you didn't spend a penny with Mr. Tian."

Reaching out to stop the third uncle, Du Shaoqing pondered for a moment, then asked the magistrate, "May I ask the magistrate, how can you guarantee that after handing over the secret recipe, you will benefit the people of the county instead of using it for profit?"

"My surname is Du, the county magistrate came to give you face, we spent money to redeem the ancestral house for you, and it is fair to use it to replace the secret recipe. As for how to use it, it has nothing to do with you.

Today, it’s okay if you negotiate a good exchange and make us anxious, we don’t want the secret recipe, and your ancestral house will be converted into the largest toilet in the town! "Huang Shengcai shouted.

"Ah! It's too much to bully!" Uncle Du and his son suddenly became violent, and they were about to rush forward when they broke free.

Facing the father and son who rushed up and screamed for beating and killing, Wang Xiancheng was unmoved in the slightest, and said very calmly: "Beating the court officials, ranging from exile to decapitation, you can think about it."

The two of them paused, their faces turned pale, their ancestors' reputation on the one hand, and their wealth and life on the other, this

"Third Uncle, Second Brother, forget it." Du Shaoqing sighed.

"Shaoqing, it's the third uncle who is incompetent and can't protect you, but the reputation of the ancestors cannot be desecrated by outsiders. Otherwise, how can I have the face to be a descendant of the Du family? So this secret recipe of steamed buns" Du Sanshu's words were full of pleading tone.

Huang Shengcai laughed wantonly and said, "That's right, Mr. Du still understands the truth. Shopkeeper Du, you have to thank Wang Xiancheng. This is the county magistrate who generously redeemed the house for you as compensation. If I handle this matter, I'm afraid , not only do you have to hand over the secret recipe, you also have to move all of them out of Luoxia Town."

Du Shaoqing snorted coldly in his heart, alarmist, you, Huang Shengcai, can't get this house at all, and Wang Xiancheng didn't have such good intentions, he just needed to use this to shut up my Du family's mouth, so as not to check it out in the future affect his career.

After understanding the two people's thoughts, if it was Du Shaoqing before, he would definitely make a compromise. As the third uncle said, the ancestors have been humiliated, and future generations can't afford to lose this person.But now Du Shaoqing is the later generation, so his views are naturally different from those of the ancients, and he immediately snorted coldly and said: "Okay, you are working together to oppress the people today, and my Du family is determined to be powerless and unable to stop you.

But a man would rather bend than bend. We respect our ancestors all because of our sincerity. If we make compromises today, it will be humiliating to our ancestors.

Third Uncle, Second Brother, let's go and get the ancestral tablets out, tidy up and bring some soft clothes, and move out, isn't it just a house, it's not ours anymore. "

"Dalang, no!"

"Let's move out of Luoxia Town right now. If our Du family becomes prosperous in the future, I, Du Shaoqing, will definitely come back and take the heads of the two of them personally, and wash away today's shame with blood!"

Huang Shengcai and the county magistrate did not expect each other to be so tough, and still refused to hand over the secret recipe. They were annoyed in their hearts, but they didn't dare to kill them all now. Instead, they laughed when they heard Du Shaoqing's words: "It's up to you? Let's talk if you can survive." .”

At this moment, a violent shout came from the door of the inn.

"Wait!"

Everyone followed the prestige, and at some point there were two more people at the door, it was Li Zhen and Cheng Chumo who just arrived!

Isn't this the two liars in the morning?Why, could it be that these two guys are the bodyguards of the county magistrate, and they just arrived now?Du Shaoqing was still guessing secretly.

Wang Xiancheng and the others were at a loss, how did they kill two strangers on the way?Huang Shengcai said impatiently: "Who dares to interrupt our business? Get out quickly."
