32. The Tang Family Perk
Second Aunt Tang couldn't protect herself, so naturally she could only dispel her thoughts about the letter of recommendation.
After coming out of He's house, Tang's grandmother was still very angry, and wanted to sit in front of He's house and make a scene, but Tang Yu stopped her.
Now that the He family is powerful, their Tang family is so poor that even their livelihood is a problem, how can they fight with others?It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, let's endure it for a few days, and then hit the opponent's lifeline again to return the bad breath.
After the rest of the family knew about this, they were also very excited and angry, and couldn't help scolding the He family for being too ungrateful.
Before, they felt that it was a bit wrong for the He family to give the Tang family four or five taels of silver every month, but the Tang family were all rough-headed, so they didn't think too deeply.
Now that you know the truth, how can you not be angry? To put it bluntly, the He family's existence now depends on their Tang family. Where did the family get the money to circulate in the officialdom?
However, after the downfall of the Tang family, the He family not only refused to help, but also made trouble.
"Not to mention anything else, they actually tricked Second Sister's dowry and put a concubine's room on the head of Second Sister, the wife. It's really deceiving!"
At this moment, the Tang family can be regarded as the same enemy.
No matter what small conflicts everyone has on weekdays, a family is a family, and if one loses, the other prospers. This is simply bullying them, no one in the Tang family.
The family members were excited and angry, Tang Yu didn't rush to persuade, just let everyone vent, it is good to have a common goal, and the unity of the family is stronger when there is a common enemy.
Only when everyone's emotions were almost vented, Tang Yu realized it with affection and told everyone the truth of 'keep a low profile' to appease everyone.
"In the final analysis, our Tang family has no confidence. As long as our Tang family revives, we will be discouraged in the future. Now everyone should do the things at hand first. I will figure out a way for this matter, and don't act rashly."
"Nephew Yu, what are you going to do about this? We can't just swallow this..."
With several times of command arrangements, everyone in the Tang family who had no idea of their own had a faint subconsciousness to regard Tang Yu as the backbone of the steering wheel.
"I have my own idea, everyone just don't talk nonsense, so as not to startle the snake, and the He family will take the lead in making us unable to stay in Licheng."
Knowing the temper of the Tang family, Tang Yu had no choice but to warn them, so as not to cause trouble for the family.
Everyone was not convinced, but they could only hold back. Nephew Yu was right, no matter how angry they are now, they can't beat the He family.
That night, everyone in the Tang family couldn't sleep.
For the first time, Tang Lao San and Tang Lao Si began to reflect on themselves.
"Daughter-in-law, it would be great if I could be smarter. Otherwise, I won't be able to do anything in the city. I couldn't help my elder brother before, but now I can't support a family. My second sister has been bullied like this. I can only watch, daughter-in-law." , do you think I am very useless?"
Tang Laosan lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he felt that he was really useless.
Zhang Chuntao wanted to nod her head, thinking that her man was a bit self-aware, but how could a daughter-in-law make trouble at such a time, and besides, if Tang Laosan was really capable, she would not be able to marry into the Tang family.
"Hey, my husband, although you don't have much ability, but you are honest and willing to work. It means that you are useless if you live in the city. If you return to the village, you will be the number one in the family, and you will be praised for farming... And you also have a group of good brothers and nephews, the eldest brother let us enjoy the wealth, and the nephew Yu will definitely be more promising in the future, good luck to you, sir."
Zhang Chuntao gave pertinent comments and encouragement. Isn't her husband-in-law a fool who has a fool's fortune? Brothers and sisters who have no skills themselves, but have skills, even if the family is in poverty, life is better than in the village.
Saying that, Tang Laosan felt relieved, and sighed, "Yes, I'm really lucky... Then Chuntao, you go back to your mother's house some other day, let your brother go to the mountains to catch some rabbits and pheasants, and make up for our nephew Yu. "
"Okay, what about the money? You know my natal family, it all depends on my brothers hunting for a living, and it can't be taken for nothing."
Zhang Chuntao thinks it's okay, nephew Yu seems to be promising now, so he should be treated well.
Tang Laosan also nodded, "Well, I should give it to you. You can give it to your natal family. I remember that there should be several copper bahts in the clay pot under the bed you buried..."
"You, how do you know that there are clay pots under the bed?" Zhang Chuntao was horrified, it was her private money hidden secretly!
"Don't you ladies hide money in clay pots, and then bury it under the bed, in the cabinet, and put it on the beam?"
Tang Laosan had a strange expression on his face, once again he felt that her daughter-in-law was really stupider than him, so he was willing to marry her, hey.
Zhang Chuntao's eyes were dull: ...it was agreed that her husband is a big fool!
another house.
Tang Laosi also fell into self-reflection and confusion for the first time in his life.
Compared to Zhang Chuntao's comfort, Leng Shangxiang was not so considerate. Seeing that her husband finally had the despair of 'I'm lazy and useless', I was very happy.
Hurry up and say positively, "Since you know that you are lazy, my husband, you should work harder. After all, you are also a man, and a man should make money to support the family. You quit the odd jobs in the wine shop and go move the goods with the third brother. That The wages are higher..."
Her husband earned money and their family saved money, otherwise the mother-in-law would not be able to dig out a dime.
But these words were simply killing Tang Lao Si.
"I knew you were not at ease as a woman! Her daughter-in-law is gentle and considerate. Whether your husband is tired or not, you are afraid that I will not die! I am so skinny and you let me carry the goods? You are too black-hearted woman! Don't go, I won’t do heavy work even if I’m hacked to death.”
Tang Laosi complained angrily, then turned his back on him, heartbroken.
His daughter-in-law actually asked him to do the heavy work of moving goods. This mother-in-law must want him to die and marry a better one!
Leng Shangxiang: ...As expected, it is impossible for her husband to make progress.
************
After learning about Tang Ergu's situation in her husband's house, the family members finally felt a sense of urgency, their hearts were no longer so big, and they paid more attention to the things Tang Yu said before about planting sweet potatoes and sprouting bean sprouts.
How should I put it, the people of the Tang family belong to the kind of people who have no motivation without pressure.
In the past, if someone helped you and had the backing, you wouldn’t panic, but now you don’t have the backing. If you don’t know how to work hard, it’s not laziness, but stupidity. Laziness is based on the condition of no worries.
No one wanted to starve to death, so the Tang family all started to take action in a very tacit understanding, actively participating in the family's income-generating activities, planting sweet potatoes and sprouting bean sprouts!
Grandmother Tang and the others had done farm work before. After Tang Yu told each other the detailed method of planting, Grandmother Tang arranged for the family to go back and forth between the city and the village every day to plant things.
The village where their family lived was not far from the town, and it was not troublesome to grow sweet potatoes. It was still possible to keep going back and forth.Anyway, no one in the family wants to go back to the village.
It is easy to sprout bean sprouts. Under the right temperature, it can be sprouted in four or five days.
Tender and crunchy, with a slightly sweet vegetable taste, it conquered the appetite of the family on the night it was released. This is made from mung beans with excellent genes that have been domesticated for many years. The taste is absolutely amazing here. Most vegetables.
Tang Yu didn't ask the family to sell the bean sprouts, but sent them directly to Liu San's Chaolailou to add a new dish to the restaurant.
Now that the weather has not completely cooled down, vegetables are not rare, so it is better to gain a reputation in Chaolailou, and the nobles will spend money when they see them in winter.
Why don't you think that when you get something on the street, you can sell it at a good price?The gentry could not look down on roadside work at all, but this is killing two birds with one stone, and the restaurant has more characteristics.
The Tang family had no culture, but they were very self-aware and very accepting of opinions. They accepted Tang Yu's suggestion easily, and there was no disturbance of disagreement.
This made Tang Yu very satisfied. The crew was obedient, and the ship of the Tang family could go faster and farther.
He can't get too much hands in the farming work. Ideas come up and actions are handed over, while he himself runs around restaurants and bookstores every day.
One is to help Liu San watch the restaurant get on the right track, and the other is to go to the bookstore to chat with the shopkeeper Lu about the high society in Licheng, so as to obtain information and find a way to sneak into the government office.
In fact, Lu Chongshan is not just the owner of a book shop. As a scholar, except for a few who are not motivated, most of them still want to show their ambitions. The shopkeeper Lu is no exception. The reason for opening a book shop is just to contact the nobles. , to expand communication.
Because what Tang Yu inquired about was not particularly secret, but some factions in Licheng were divided into factions, so Lu Chongshan spoke very frankly.
"Tang scholar seeks refuge with Wei County Guard, but wants to knock on Duke Qu's door?"
Lu Chongshan's eyes were as bright as a torch, and it was easy to guess Tang Yu's target.
Tang Yu nodded frankly, "Yes, and no."
"Oh, what does the scholar mean by this?"
"Although Honghu has great ambitions, the reality is cruel. Therefore, I think ambitions are possible, but we should start from the basics. It is difficult to talk about big ambitions. It is better to set a small goal first... For example, to be the staff of the county guard of Wei first, and to solve the problem. Let’s talk about difficulties at home.”
The scholars here have a special feeling, that is, they must find a good master who appreciates themselves, so that they are willing to develop their ambitions and wholeheartedly assist the master.
This is a beautiful and broad feeling, but the reality is cruel, not everyone is lucky enough to meet the master of their dreams.
As a result, many talented people have no chance to display their talents in their lives, and die in depression.
Tang Yu thinks this is a dead-headed misunderstanding,
"Maximas are common, but Bole is rare. Instead of wasting time waiting for Bole, why not take the initiative to seek opportunities? You have never even been in a small valley. How can you talk about conquering the vast grassland? Shopkeeper Lu, what do you think?"
To put it bluntly, it is to find a job first and accumulate experience, then change jobs if there is a chance, and live an honest life if there is no chance.
Water flows to low places, and people go to high places. Feelings are not something that people living at the bottom struggle with. All romantic ideals are based on not worrying about food and drink. The essence of human beings is survival first, and then life.
"..."
Lu Chongshan, who had been trapped in his fixed impression all the time, was completely dumbfounded.
It was the first time in his life that he heard such a noble and noble expression. The problem was that he still felt that it seemed to be quite right!
********
33. The tyrant is contradictory
After chatting with Lu Chongshan for a few days, I haven't found a clue about the matter of the staff, but Tang Yu still has a clear idea of the general situation in Licheng.
When I first read the original book provided by the system, there was too little effective information in it, and it basically revolved around the emotional drama between the Yin tyrant and the 'false heroine', not much specifically related to the situation.
According to 003, the system did not disclose it because it was worried that the host would use the original history as a reference and accidentally retrace the history.What the system wants is for the host to guide the emperor to establish a new history, knowing too much is a burden.
So now Tang Yu had to find out by himself, relying on his own feelings and plans to act.
The situation in Li City is actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it is a noble family named Qu Gong.Here, Qugong is the local snake and the emperor of the earth.
This Duke Qu also has a lot of history, he is a collateral branch of the Qu family in Wangcheng, and the words of the Qu family... Tang Yu vaguely remembers that it seems to be the mother clan of the favorite concubine of King Qin who was killed by Yin Yu.
The reason why Yin Yu and his mother were sent to a foreign country as hostages when he was young was because of a beloved concubine called 'Qu Ji'. The mother and son had been humiliated in a foreign country for many years. To chop that beloved concubine into meat sauce and make meat pies to force his brother to eat them was simply cruel and terrifying.
Because of this, King Qin was furious and almost killed his son. Finally, under the persuasion of other ministers, he sent his crippled legs to this barren border town.
However, there are people from the Qu family in Licheng, and King Qin sent them here, so it can be seen that he still wants to kill this son.
In other words, the Qu family and Yin Yu are enemies.
This can also explain why Yin Yu arranged for him to go to the other party's side to do detailed work. He made it clear that he wanted to clean up the Qu family, vent his anger and at the same time control the power of Licheng...
Wei Xianshou is a member of Mr. Qu, and this time the other side is recruiting staff, which is an excellent opportunity to get close.
But how to get in is a difficult problem. There are many people robbing the job of a staff member. It is not so easy to break out from the crowd of talented people.
Tang Yu didn't think of a good solution for the time being, so he could only continue to inquire about relevant news and look for opportunities.
Instead, 003 suggested, "Master, you already have so many points now, you can buy a one-time hypnotism to ensure that Wei County guards choose you as an aide, why are you so troubled?"
"Don't buy it, definitely don't buy it! Hypnotism is a high-level gold finger in my world, and you get two to three thousand points at once, which is not worth it!"
Tang Yu firmly refused without even thinking about it.
He has a lot of point deposits now, but he can't help using them casually. Before the critical moment, he would rather spend a lot of time with his own brain than waste it casually, otherwise he will only be dumbfounded at the critical moment.
It is very dangerous to overdraft consumption without guaranteeing a stable income.
003 agrees with this point, but, "There are still many opportunities in the future. In addition to task rewards, there are also many invisible benefits. Although I can't tell you, the master, you can ask a few of your friends for advice. The point rewards for invisible benefits are very considerable. of……"
"Don't go! Who knows what pitfalls your system has, it's fine if you didn't know it before, but now that I know it, I won't be fooled so easily!"
Tang Yu hated that he didn't pay attention to the "system regulations" at the beginning, but he took the time to finish reading them.
"Your system basically treats the host as the wives of those emperor stars. Last time, the invisible benefit was to let me give a kiss. Who knows if I will just let me climb the bed next time? I don't want to put myself up for points. After throwing everything away, just do the normal release task."
...The most important thing is that Yin Tyrant is very handsome. Since he doesn't resist kissing men, he is easy to be turned around, which is too dangerous.
Tang Yu asked himself that he was a very traditional person in terms of feelings. If he really bent himself here and fell in love with Yin Yu, and then returned to his world in the future, he was not sure if he could forget him and continue his new life. Life.
In this regard, 003 was silent.
In the rules of the system, the so-called invisible benefits are indeed used by the system to attract the host to be the partner of the emperor...
Tang Yu made up his mind to find another way, and didn't want to do things that broke the limit in order to get points in the future.Now even if you spend points to buy gold fingers to help, you can't buy too expensive, otherwise it's really not worth it.
And the other end.
After Yin Yu asked people to investigate him again and found nothing wrong, his heart was fluctuated by his little heartless behavior.
The background of the Tang family was fine. No matter who investigates, Tang Yu must be innocent, but the suspicious points shown by Tang Yu are also undeniable.
Although I don't know what method he used to fool his two attendants, but the witchcraft-like ability can't help but make people horrified.
But Tang Yu's behavior is confusing...
Is everything really just a coincidence?Is it because he is too suspicious, the boy is really a person who knows how to repay kindness and love, and even the other party fell in love with him at first sight?
After thinking about it, Yin Yu couldn't help doubting his own vision of seeing people. Could it be that he was really wrong this time?
Thinking of meeting several times, Tang Yu's eager and clear eyes, those eyes are really cunning, bright and without impurities, Fang Zai only noticed the other party in the crowd for the first time.
"What do you think of Tang Yu?"
He couldn't figure it out, so Yin Yu could only refer to the opinions of others, and asked the two attendants around him blankly, so as to avoid being too subjective and making mistakes.
Ah Jiu and Ah Shi have changed from a dead soldier to an important personal servant, so naturally they are not only skilled, but also resourceful.
The two of them didn't know about their master's 'stealing kiss', so their views were relatively less entangled.
Ah Jiu said, "Master, this subordinate feels that although Tang Yu has many doubts, he should be usable. There is no problem with his current background, and his strategy is fine. Even if the other party really has someone behind him, as long as we don't keep it by our side, it will be fine. It can also confuse the people behind it..."
"Chaolailou's business came back to life in less than a month, which is enough to prove its ability."
Ah Shi nodded in agreement.
Yin Yu originally planned to do so, Tang Yu's appearance was too coincidental, he couldn't trust it, but now...
The soft touch on the lips, the jerky movements, and the light fragrance that day flashed through his mind, and he had to admit again, if the boy was really sent by someone, then he really sent a good candidate.
Yin Yu frowned slightly, put down his pen a little annoyed, and changed the subject.
"What do you think of this king?"
Ah Jiu: "?"
Ten: "?"
The two attendants looked confused, not knowing what the master meant by this, and which aspect he was referring to.
But the qualified subordinates all have panacea flattery to answer, "The master is the dragon and phoenix among men."
Yin Yu didn't care about this panacea answer, nodded, and continued, "The king may make people fall in love at first sight? Would you rather go through fire and water for this king?"
When he said this, his eyes fell on his unconscious legs, his eyes were so deep that it was difficult to see clearly what he was thinking...
However, this demeanor was enough to embarrass the two attendants. They didn't know how to answer, and they were a little surprised.
The master who has never cared about feelings suddenly asked this kind of question, it must have a purpose, and a perfunctory answer is courting death.
But to be honest, it seems to be looking for death.
Their master is indeed a dragon and phoenix among men, no matter in terms of intelligence or appearance, he is the best among the several highnesses in Wangcheng, but the problem is... the master has lost his legs now, which greatly deducts points.
It's not discrimination, but how many ordinary people will really fall in love with someone with a defective upper body?That is too little, let alone love at first sight.
"Subordinates believe that there is love at first sight, but it's rare. But when the master recovers, he will definitely be the object of love for all women in the world. The master is destined by fate, so don't care about it."
Ah Jiu and Ah Shi didn't dare to be perfunctory, so they could only bite the bullet and comfort them.
Although the master's leg is useless now, it is not impossible to recover. Qiu Zhongfu said that as long as he finds a good doctor, the master will be able to recover.
But where did you hear the phrase 'go through fire and water'?
"It's really rare, it's unbelievable..."
Yin Yu's expression was indifferent, but he still couldn't see what he was thinking.
But the subject soon changed to something else,
"I heard that many gentry in Licheng recently went to Chaolailou to watch some stage play? And there are some delicious new dishes?"
"Yes master, Chaolailou's stage play is very ingenious, and many restaurants are imitating it, but the time is still short, and it is not as good-looking as Chaolailou. The recent new dishes in the restaurant are also very popular. Several well-known gentry lords in the village were attracted to it."
Although there is no gimmick of celebrity calligraphy and painting, the endless new ideas on the Chaolai floor still become a dark horse, rushing out of everyone's sight and attracting the attention of the gentry.
And when the curious gentry went to visit, they found that the restaurant not only has a lot of novelties, but also the dishes are delicious, and the unnamed paintings on the walls are also quite mysterious and extraordinary, and they soon became repeat customers.
In just half a month, Chao Lai Lou has made a name for himself in Li City, and has been quite popular recently.
"By the way, Chaolai Building has also released new wine, which has a very mellow taste, and has been praised by many gentry masters... If the master wants to see new ideas, the subordinates can arrange it."
The attendant guessed that his master probably checked Tang Yu's ability with his own eyes, and continued to add.
"kindness."
Yin Yu nodded in agreement, looking into the distance.
*******
34. Gouging and tyrants
Chaolailou's business has been getting better and better recently.
Although it has only been half a month since the reopening, it has already produced many repeat customers and is on the right track.
Liu San had been the shopkeeper of the restaurant for most of his life, and he was basically able to manage it alone, but Tang Yu still went to visit it every day, checking the restaurant's problems while getting acquainted with the gentry in Licheng.
When lighting up the gourmet skill book before, Tang Yu deliberately spent points to highlight the wine-making skills.
Of course, it is impossible to make wine in a few days, but the wine here can be distilled and purified. The alcohol content here is too low, and the wine that has been purified a few degrees will immediately become popular with everyone without any surprises. liquor.
At present, due to productivity reasons, wine brewed from grain is considered a luxury, and it is completely fine as a signboard.
The dish of 'Beggar's Chicken' tasted so good before that it didn't attract high-status gentry lords here, but the distilled and purified wine did.
Because Tang Yu deliberately asked Liu San to do hunger marketing, limiting the sale to only five jars a day, and only to the customers who ate in restaurants, those gentry who were greedy for alcohol naturally couldn't sit still and had to come to the door in person.
And Tang Yu took advantage of this shameless to strike up acquaintances, taking advantage of his identity as the nephew of the owner of the restaurant, and seeing that he was well-behaved and educated, everyone did not dislike talking to him.
No matter in that era, networking is a very important thing, and this world with a class system and backward news is even more prosperous.
Naturally, Tang Yu did not strike up a conversation casually. Anyway, his current status is a scholar who has studied. He is too obsequious and active, so he will not lose his price. He just goes up to explain something when the nobles are interested in the calligraphy and paintings on the wall. two.
Showing off his ability in this way makes him look acquainted without any identity.And under his deliberate publicity, the "unknown layman" of Chaolailou's calligraphy and painting has gradually become familiar.
Liu San was secretly amazed that at such an age, his young master's wrists were not inferior to those of the original master's.
However, the business of the restaurant has suddenly improved, so the jealousy of the peers cannot be avoided. At present, many restaurants are imitating their restaurant's various innovations and operating systems.
This kind of thing cannot be avoided in modern times, let alone ancient times?The result now is completely as expected.
And one thing happened faster than Tang Yu imagined, that is... being poached.
"Young master, Yingji said that she will not do it after this month's performance."
Today, as soon as Tang Yu arrived at the restaurant, Liu San hurriedly pulled him to the room, anxious to talk about it.
When the stage play was welcomed, he asked Liu San to discuss long-term cooperation with his daughter-in-law quickly, in order to avoid this kind of poaching and job-hopping, but she is not stupid, her eyes are very poisonous. The value of the restaurant performance, only promised to sign a contract for a period of one month.
Now it is said that the contract will not be renewed after this month. If there is no accident, someone must have been poached.
"Let's just say, which restaurant lured her away at a high price?"
"The guy from the White Crane Tower opposite us..."
Liu San hates it, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the two restaurants they opened face to face, Baihe Tower will not be reconciled to monopolizing this street unless they are killed.
But Penglai Building doesn't bother with these tricks at all. Behind Penglai Building is Mr. Qu, which represents status. Regardless of their ingenious intentions or not, the real gatherings of the gentry lords in Licheng will go there, and they don't worry about guests at all.
"Then what does Mr. Bai mean?"
"Bai Gongzi said that he still wants to continue to work with us." Speaking of this, Liu San's face turned brighter, at least the two protagonists did not finish.
"We have a small temple here. Since Yingji wants to leave, let her go. The twisted melon is not sweet... Tell him to Mr. Bai, don't rush to leave after the performance every day, and stay an extra hour. I have Give him the new script, and I will give him Yingji's share of money in the future, and he will get double."
Tang Yu nodded, and didn't care that Yingji was poached, their restaurant didn't have to be Yingji.
But Liu San was very worried, "Young Master, shall we not find a Meiji anymore? Can we just rely on Mr. Bai?"
"It's okay. Uncle Liu, you have to remember that the popularity of women's performances in our restaurant is not due to their own charm, but because of our restaurant's script. In other words, if they leave our restaurant, they will have nothing to do No. Mr. Bai is obviously a sensible person."
Tang Yu smiled. There are too many big-hearted people in the world. He has considered poaching, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.
But it doesn't matter, now the restaurant doesn't rely on these people to eat, on the contrary, these people rely on the restaurant to make money, and they leave as they go, only to see people with small profits crying when they are.
"It's not a long-term thing to perform stage plays all the time. After all, we are a restaurant here, not a nun's teaching workshop. After Yingying sings and dances for a long time, the nature of the restaurant will change. Don't worry, Uncle Liu, I have already thought about countermeasures. You put me just now. Just tell Mr. Bai what you say."
Tang Yu was not worried, and calmly comforted Liu San.
Liu San was apprehensive. Logically speaking, after being the shopkeeper of the restaurant for so many years, he should have been calm in the face of all kinds of changes in the restaurant, but during this period of time, the restaurant had too many ups and downs, which really put his mental endurance to the test.
After finally seeing the improvement of the restaurant, and encountering such a thing as poaching, he can't panic, he is afraid that something will happen to the restaurant, it is all his wealth and life.
Liu San left with a sad face and cheered up to greet the guests.
Tang Yu continued to calmly look around the various gentry in the restaurant, looking for targets to make friends with. The restaurant is not worried. What he is worried about now is the task of the staff. If the time limit is exceeded, there will be no points.
If the scumbag's second uncle didn't write him a letter of recommendation, he would just find someone else, all roads lead to Rome, why are you so brainless?
Suddenly, Tang Yu saw a familiar figure coming in from the door.
Yin tyrant? ?
Tang Yu was taken aback, a little bewildered, why did the Yin tyrant condescend and come to their restaurant? Also, didn't the other party say that it was okay to ask him to meet less people?He's going to be an undercover agent soon!
And Yin Yu at the door keenly noticed him sitting in the corner immediately, glanced at him, and then the attendant lifted the wheelchair up to the private room on the second floor for dinner.
As a 'loyal' confidant, Tang Yu naturally quickly realized what this look meant.
When the master calls, the mountains of swords and seas of fire have to go up.
"Xiao Mu, the Tianzi private room on the second floor is a distinguished guest. I'll go and greet you, lest you accidentally offend me."
Tang Yu explained to the waiter on the second floor, brought a jug of wine, and hurried over.
The private room Yin Yu sat in was still the same as usual, he chose the one near the window, and he was still accompanied by the two attendants named Ah Jiu and Ah Shi.
It was Liu San who led the people in. Liu San had a lot of knowledge. He saw the guests riding in a bronze carriage at the door. .
However, Yin Yu is not something ordinary people can greet. His expressionless face and hostile eyes make people feel afraid when they see him. The air around him is like a natural air conditioner. In this late autumn The temperature is even more frighteningly cold.
Liu San stood beside him, not daring to vent his anger, and was terribly frightened.
When Tang Yu knocked on the door and saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile in his heart. After meeting and getting along with each other a few times, he already felt a little bit of Yin Yu's temper. This man is actually a bit like a lion with fried fur. .
"Uncle Liu, I will take care of this distinguished guest. Your lord is of extraordinary status. I have read a few words, and I have a few words with you. You go to the lobby to look after the guy."
Uncle Liu didn't know they knew each other, he just thought he was here to make a rescue, so he was a little hesitant.
The guests in front of him were not easy to serve, so what if he was afraid that the young master would accidentally offend him?
But seeing that the distinguished guests didn't seem to object, Uncle Liu could only retreat full of worries. Although he opened a restaurant to make money, the guests were not so easy to serve.
After Tang Yu waited for Liu San to go out, he waited for 2 minutes to avoid listening to the corner, and then brought the wine to the table.
Then actively and respectfully pour wine for others, with a happy expression on his face, "Master, you have a taste of this wine. Although I didn't brew it, it was distilled by me. The taste of the wine is much stronger than what the master drank last time. The master will definitely drink it." like!"
Although he doesn't intend to be the wife of Yin Tyrant, but he wants to be the most confidant subordinate of the other party, who can serve the master and be the master's friend, this is the best confidant.
So after confirming that Yin Yu had no intention of killing him, Tang Yu became more courageous.
And this kind of attitude is really useful to Yin Yu. After all, Yin Yu is still a human being, no matter how cruel and gloomy his temper is.
As the saying goes, the heights are too cold.The occasional special appearance will make this kind of person very fresh.
Of course, the premise is that you must know how to advance and retreat, and be knowledgeable.Blindly silly, white and sweet is stupid, not special.
Tang Yu obviously did a good job at this point.
So Yin Yu tolerantly allowed the etiquette that he occasionally didn't notice. Although he was a little uncomfortable looking at the young man who was close to him, his gloomy mood was inexplicably good.
"You've never been so afraid of me?"
Yin Yu picked up the wine bottle and smelled the strong aroma of the wine with a calm expression.
But without testing the poison, he drank the wine brought by Tang Yu directly, but he was able to show the attitude of the other party, which seemed to give him a lot of trust.
Tang Yu didn't know whether Yin Yu really believed him or not, but it didn't matter.
He spoke briskly, with a smile on his face, and with sincerity from the heart, "Yu said it, I want to repay you, master. Yu's life is yours, so why should I be afraid of master? If I can talk to master, Yu was extremely happy."
The young man's youthful face is exquisite and lovely, his clear voice makes people feel more comfortable, and his tone is more sincere and candid.
Getting along with such a person is the easiest. Yin Yu knows that he is not simple, but he is very happy with this attitude, because no matter what else, Tang Yu's sincerity can't be faked.
Yin Yu's indifferent face has soft eyebrows and eyes, staring at the smiling Yan Yan,
"Do you know why I came to see you today?"
How could Tang Yu, who was as smart as he was, not be able to guess that the affairs of the staff hadn't made any progress in half a month. This efficiency was a bit embarrassing, but he was so eloquent and narcissistic before that he panicked.
The smile suddenly turned into sorrow, and he poked his finger with an aggrieved expression, "Master..."
Second Aunt Tang couldn't protect herself, so naturally she could only dispel her thoughts about the letter of recommendation.
After coming out of He's house, Tang's grandmother was still very angry, and wanted to sit in front of He's house and make a scene, but Tang Yu stopped her.
Now that the He family is powerful, their Tang family is so poor that even their livelihood is a problem, how can they fight with others?It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, let's endure it for a few days, and then hit the opponent's lifeline again to return the bad breath.
After the rest of the family knew about this, they were also very excited and angry, and couldn't help scolding the He family for being too ungrateful.
Before, they felt that it was a bit wrong for the He family to give the Tang family four or five taels of silver every month, but the Tang family were all rough-headed, so they didn't think too deeply.
Now that you know the truth, how can you not be angry? To put it bluntly, the He family's existence now depends on their Tang family. Where did the family get the money to circulate in the officialdom?
However, after the downfall of the Tang family, the He family not only refused to help, but also made trouble.
"Not to mention anything else, they actually tricked Second Sister's dowry and put a concubine's room on the head of Second Sister, the wife. It's really deceiving!"
At this moment, the Tang family can be regarded as the same enemy.
No matter what small conflicts everyone has on weekdays, a family is a family, and if one loses, the other prospers. This is simply bullying them, no one in the Tang family.
The family members were excited and angry, Tang Yu didn't rush to persuade, just let everyone vent, it is good to have a common goal, and the unity of the family is stronger when there is a common enemy.
Only when everyone's emotions were almost vented, Tang Yu realized it with affection and told everyone the truth of 'keep a low profile' to appease everyone.
"In the final analysis, our Tang family has no confidence. As long as our Tang family revives, we will be discouraged in the future. Now everyone should do the things at hand first. I will figure out a way for this matter, and don't act rashly."
"Nephew Yu, what are you going to do about this? We can't just swallow this..."
With several times of command arrangements, everyone in the Tang family who had no idea of their own had a faint subconsciousness to regard Tang Yu as the backbone of the steering wheel.
"I have my own idea, everyone just don't talk nonsense, so as not to startle the snake, and the He family will take the lead in making us unable to stay in Licheng."
Knowing the temper of the Tang family, Tang Yu had no choice but to warn them, so as not to cause trouble for the family.
Everyone was not convinced, but they could only hold back. Nephew Yu was right, no matter how angry they are now, they can't beat the He family.
That night, everyone in the Tang family couldn't sleep.
For the first time, Tang Lao San and Tang Lao Si began to reflect on themselves.
"Daughter-in-law, it would be great if I could be smarter. Otherwise, I won't be able to do anything in the city. I couldn't help my elder brother before, but now I can't support a family. My second sister has been bullied like this. I can only watch, daughter-in-law." , do you think I am very useless?"
Tang Laosan lay on the bed and couldn't sleep, the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he felt that he was really useless.
Zhang Chuntao wanted to nod her head, thinking that her man was a bit self-aware, but how could a daughter-in-law make trouble at such a time, and besides, if Tang Laosan was really capable, she would not be able to marry into the Tang family.
"Hey, my husband, although you don't have much ability, but you are honest and willing to work. It means that you are useless if you live in the city. If you return to the village, you will be the number one in the family, and you will be praised for farming... And you also have a group of good brothers and nephews, the eldest brother let us enjoy the wealth, and the nephew Yu will definitely be more promising in the future, good luck to you, sir."
Zhang Chuntao gave pertinent comments and encouragement. Isn't her husband-in-law a fool who has a fool's fortune? Brothers and sisters who have no skills themselves, but have skills, even if the family is in poverty, life is better than in the village.
Saying that, Tang Laosan felt relieved, and sighed, "Yes, I'm really lucky... Then Chuntao, you go back to your mother's house some other day, let your brother go to the mountains to catch some rabbits and pheasants, and make up for our nephew Yu. "
"Okay, what about the money? You know my natal family, it all depends on my brothers hunting for a living, and it can't be taken for nothing."
Zhang Chuntao thinks it's okay, nephew Yu seems to be promising now, so he should be treated well.
Tang Laosan also nodded, "Well, I should give it to you. You can give it to your natal family. I remember that there should be several copper bahts in the clay pot under the bed you buried..."
"You, how do you know that there are clay pots under the bed?" Zhang Chuntao was horrified, it was her private money hidden secretly!
"Don't you ladies hide money in clay pots, and then bury it under the bed, in the cabinet, and put it on the beam?"
Tang Laosan had a strange expression on his face, once again he felt that her daughter-in-law was really stupider than him, so he was willing to marry her, hey.
Zhang Chuntao's eyes were dull: ...it was agreed that her husband is a big fool!
another house.
Tang Laosi also fell into self-reflection and confusion for the first time in his life.
Compared to Zhang Chuntao's comfort, Leng Shangxiang was not so considerate. Seeing that her husband finally had the despair of 'I'm lazy and useless', I was very happy.
Hurry up and say positively, "Since you know that you are lazy, my husband, you should work harder. After all, you are also a man, and a man should make money to support the family. You quit the odd jobs in the wine shop and go move the goods with the third brother. That The wages are higher..."
Her husband earned money and their family saved money, otherwise the mother-in-law would not be able to dig out a dime.
But these words were simply killing Tang Lao Si.
"I knew you were not at ease as a woman! Her daughter-in-law is gentle and considerate. Whether your husband is tired or not, you are afraid that I will not die! I am so skinny and you let me carry the goods? You are too black-hearted woman! Don't go, I won’t do heavy work even if I’m hacked to death.”
Tang Laosi complained angrily, then turned his back on him, heartbroken.
His daughter-in-law actually asked him to do the heavy work of moving goods. This mother-in-law must want him to die and marry a better one!
Leng Shangxiang: ...As expected, it is impossible for her husband to make progress.
************
After learning about Tang Ergu's situation in her husband's house, the family members finally felt a sense of urgency, their hearts were no longer so big, and they paid more attention to the things Tang Yu said before about planting sweet potatoes and sprouting bean sprouts.
How should I put it, the people of the Tang family belong to the kind of people who have no motivation without pressure.
In the past, if someone helped you and had the backing, you wouldn’t panic, but now you don’t have the backing. If you don’t know how to work hard, it’s not laziness, but stupidity. Laziness is based on the condition of no worries.
No one wanted to starve to death, so the Tang family all started to take action in a very tacit understanding, actively participating in the family's income-generating activities, planting sweet potatoes and sprouting bean sprouts!
Grandmother Tang and the others had done farm work before. After Tang Yu told each other the detailed method of planting, Grandmother Tang arranged for the family to go back and forth between the city and the village every day to plant things.
The village where their family lived was not far from the town, and it was not troublesome to grow sweet potatoes. It was still possible to keep going back and forth.Anyway, no one in the family wants to go back to the village.
It is easy to sprout bean sprouts. Under the right temperature, it can be sprouted in four or five days.
Tender and crunchy, with a slightly sweet vegetable taste, it conquered the appetite of the family on the night it was released. This is made from mung beans with excellent genes that have been domesticated for many years. The taste is absolutely amazing here. Most vegetables.
Tang Yu didn't ask the family to sell the bean sprouts, but sent them directly to Liu San's Chaolailou to add a new dish to the restaurant.
Now that the weather has not completely cooled down, vegetables are not rare, so it is better to gain a reputation in Chaolailou, and the nobles will spend money when they see them in winter.
Why don't you think that when you get something on the street, you can sell it at a good price?The gentry could not look down on roadside work at all, but this is killing two birds with one stone, and the restaurant has more characteristics.
The Tang family had no culture, but they were very self-aware and very accepting of opinions. They accepted Tang Yu's suggestion easily, and there was no disturbance of disagreement.
This made Tang Yu very satisfied. The crew was obedient, and the ship of the Tang family could go faster and farther.
He can't get too much hands in the farming work. Ideas come up and actions are handed over, while he himself runs around restaurants and bookstores every day.
One is to help Liu San watch the restaurant get on the right track, and the other is to go to the bookstore to chat with the shopkeeper Lu about the high society in Licheng, so as to obtain information and find a way to sneak into the government office.
In fact, Lu Chongshan is not just the owner of a book shop. As a scholar, except for a few who are not motivated, most of them still want to show their ambitions. The shopkeeper Lu is no exception. The reason for opening a book shop is just to contact the nobles. , to expand communication.
Because what Tang Yu inquired about was not particularly secret, but some factions in Licheng were divided into factions, so Lu Chongshan spoke very frankly.
"Tang scholar seeks refuge with Wei County Guard, but wants to knock on Duke Qu's door?"
Lu Chongshan's eyes were as bright as a torch, and it was easy to guess Tang Yu's target.
Tang Yu nodded frankly, "Yes, and no."
"Oh, what does the scholar mean by this?"
"Although Honghu has great ambitions, the reality is cruel. Therefore, I think ambitions are possible, but we should start from the basics. It is difficult to talk about big ambitions. It is better to set a small goal first... For example, to be the staff of the county guard of Wei first, and to solve the problem. Let’s talk about difficulties at home.”
The scholars here have a special feeling, that is, they must find a good master who appreciates themselves, so that they are willing to develop their ambitions and wholeheartedly assist the master.
This is a beautiful and broad feeling, but the reality is cruel, not everyone is lucky enough to meet the master of their dreams.
As a result, many talented people have no chance to display their talents in their lives, and die in depression.
Tang Yu thinks this is a dead-headed misunderstanding,
"Maximas are common, but Bole is rare. Instead of wasting time waiting for Bole, why not take the initiative to seek opportunities? You have never even been in a small valley. How can you talk about conquering the vast grassland? Shopkeeper Lu, what do you think?"
To put it bluntly, it is to find a job first and accumulate experience, then change jobs if there is a chance, and live an honest life if there is no chance.
Water flows to low places, and people go to high places. Feelings are not something that people living at the bottom struggle with. All romantic ideals are based on not worrying about food and drink. The essence of human beings is survival first, and then life.
"..."
Lu Chongshan, who had been trapped in his fixed impression all the time, was completely dumbfounded.
It was the first time in his life that he heard such a noble and noble expression. The problem was that he still felt that it seemed to be quite right!
********
33. The tyrant is contradictory
After chatting with Lu Chongshan for a few days, I haven't found a clue about the matter of the staff, but Tang Yu still has a clear idea of the general situation in Licheng.
When I first read the original book provided by the system, there was too little effective information in it, and it basically revolved around the emotional drama between the Yin tyrant and the 'false heroine', not much specifically related to the situation.
According to 003, the system did not disclose it because it was worried that the host would use the original history as a reference and accidentally retrace the history.What the system wants is for the host to guide the emperor to establish a new history, knowing too much is a burden.
So now Tang Yu had to find out by himself, relying on his own feelings and plans to act.
The situation in Li City is actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it is a noble family named Qu Gong.Here, Qugong is the local snake and the emperor of the earth.
This Duke Qu also has a lot of history, he is a collateral branch of the Qu family in Wangcheng, and the words of the Qu family... Tang Yu vaguely remembers that it seems to be the mother clan of the favorite concubine of King Qin who was killed by Yin Yu.
The reason why Yin Yu and his mother were sent to a foreign country as hostages when he was young was because of a beloved concubine called 'Qu Ji'. The mother and son had been humiliated in a foreign country for many years. To chop that beloved concubine into meat sauce and make meat pies to force his brother to eat them was simply cruel and terrifying.
Because of this, King Qin was furious and almost killed his son. Finally, under the persuasion of other ministers, he sent his crippled legs to this barren border town.
However, there are people from the Qu family in Licheng, and King Qin sent them here, so it can be seen that he still wants to kill this son.
In other words, the Qu family and Yin Yu are enemies.
This can also explain why Yin Yu arranged for him to go to the other party's side to do detailed work. He made it clear that he wanted to clean up the Qu family, vent his anger and at the same time control the power of Licheng...
Wei Xianshou is a member of Mr. Qu, and this time the other side is recruiting staff, which is an excellent opportunity to get close.
But how to get in is a difficult problem. There are many people robbing the job of a staff member. It is not so easy to break out from the crowd of talented people.
Tang Yu didn't think of a good solution for the time being, so he could only continue to inquire about relevant news and look for opportunities.
Instead, 003 suggested, "Master, you already have so many points now, you can buy a one-time hypnotism to ensure that Wei County guards choose you as an aide, why are you so troubled?"
"Don't buy it, definitely don't buy it! Hypnotism is a high-level gold finger in my world, and you get two to three thousand points at once, which is not worth it!"
Tang Yu firmly refused without even thinking about it.
He has a lot of point deposits now, but he can't help using them casually. Before the critical moment, he would rather spend a lot of time with his own brain than waste it casually, otherwise he will only be dumbfounded at the critical moment.
It is very dangerous to overdraft consumption without guaranteeing a stable income.
003 agrees with this point, but, "There are still many opportunities in the future. In addition to task rewards, there are also many invisible benefits. Although I can't tell you, the master, you can ask a few of your friends for advice. The point rewards for invisible benefits are very considerable. of……"
"Don't go! Who knows what pitfalls your system has, it's fine if you didn't know it before, but now that I know it, I won't be fooled so easily!"
Tang Yu hated that he didn't pay attention to the "system regulations" at the beginning, but he took the time to finish reading them.
"Your system basically treats the host as the wives of those emperor stars. Last time, the invisible benefit was to let me give a kiss. Who knows if I will just let me climb the bed next time? I don't want to put myself up for points. After throwing everything away, just do the normal release task."
...The most important thing is that Yin Tyrant is very handsome. Since he doesn't resist kissing men, he is easy to be turned around, which is too dangerous.
Tang Yu asked himself that he was a very traditional person in terms of feelings. If he really bent himself here and fell in love with Yin Yu, and then returned to his world in the future, he was not sure if he could forget him and continue his new life. Life.
In this regard, 003 was silent.
In the rules of the system, the so-called invisible benefits are indeed used by the system to attract the host to be the partner of the emperor...
Tang Yu made up his mind to find another way, and didn't want to do things that broke the limit in order to get points in the future.Now even if you spend points to buy gold fingers to help, you can't buy too expensive, otherwise it's really not worth it.
And the other end.
After Yin Yu asked people to investigate him again and found nothing wrong, his heart was fluctuated by his little heartless behavior.
The background of the Tang family was fine. No matter who investigates, Tang Yu must be innocent, but the suspicious points shown by Tang Yu are also undeniable.
Although I don't know what method he used to fool his two attendants, but the witchcraft-like ability can't help but make people horrified.
But Tang Yu's behavior is confusing...
Is everything really just a coincidence?Is it because he is too suspicious, the boy is really a person who knows how to repay kindness and love, and even the other party fell in love with him at first sight?
After thinking about it, Yin Yu couldn't help doubting his own vision of seeing people. Could it be that he was really wrong this time?
Thinking of meeting several times, Tang Yu's eager and clear eyes, those eyes are really cunning, bright and without impurities, Fang Zai only noticed the other party in the crowd for the first time.
"What do you think of Tang Yu?"
He couldn't figure it out, so Yin Yu could only refer to the opinions of others, and asked the two attendants around him blankly, so as to avoid being too subjective and making mistakes.
Ah Jiu and Ah Shi have changed from a dead soldier to an important personal servant, so naturally they are not only skilled, but also resourceful.
The two of them didn't know about their master's 'stealing kiss', so their views were relatively less entangled.
Ah Jiu said, "Master, this subordinate feels that although Tang Yu has many doubts, he should be usable. There is no problem with his current background, and his strategy is fine. Even if the other party really has someone behind him, as long as we don't keep it by our side, it will be fine. It can also confuse the people behind it..."
"Chaolailou's business came back to life in less than a month, which is enough to prove its ability."
Ah Shi nodded in agreement.
Yin Yu originally planned to do so, Tang Yu's appearance was too coincidental, he couldn't trust it, but now...
The soft touch on the lips, the jerky movements, and the light fragrance that day flashed through his mind, and he had to admit again, if the boy was really sent by someone, then he really sent a good candidate.
Yin Yu frowned slightly, put down his pen a little annoyed, and changed the subject.
"What do you think of this king?"
Ah Jiu: "?"
Ten: "?"
The two attendants looked confused, not knowing what the master meant by this, and which aspect he was referring to.
But the qualified subordinates all have panacea flattery to answer, "The master is the dragon and phoenix among men."
Yin Yu didn't care about this panacea answer, nodded, and continued, "The king may make people fall in love at first sight? Would you rather go through fire and water for this king?"
When he said this, his eyes fell on his unconscious legs, his eyes were so deep that it was difficult to see clearly what he was thinking...
However, this demeanor was enough to embarrass the two attendants. They didn't know how to answer, and they were a little surprised.
The master who has never cared about feelings suddenly asked this kind of question, it must have a purpose, and a perfunctory answer is courting death.
But to be honest, it seems to be looking for death.
Their master is indeed a dragon and phoenix among men, no matter in terms of intelligence or appearance, he is the best among the several highnesses in Wangcheng, but the problem is... the master has lost his legs now, which greatly deducts points.
It's not discrimination, but how many ordinary people will really fall in love with someone with a defective upper body?That is too little, let alone love at first sight.
"Subordinates believe that there is love at first sight, but it's rare. But when the master recovers, he will definitely be the object of love for all women in the world. The master is destined by fate, so don't care about it."
Ah Jiu and Ah Shi didn't dare to be perfunctory, so they could only bite the bullet and comfort them.
Although the master's leg is useless now, it is not impossible to recover. Qiu Zhongfu said that as long as he finds a good doctor, the master will be able to recover.
But where did you hear the phrase 'go through fire and water'?
"It's really rare, it's unbelievable..."
Yin Yu's expression was indifferent, but he still couldn't see what he was thinking.
But the subject soon changed to something else,
"I heard that many gentry in Licheng recently went to Chaolailou to watch some stage play? And there are some delicious new dishes?"
"Yes master, Chaolailou's stage play is very ingenious, and many restaurants are imitating it, but the time is still short, and it is not as good-looking as Chaolailou. The recent new dishes in the restaurant are also very popular. Several well-known gentry lords in the village were attracted to it."
Although there is no gimmick of celebrity calligraphy and painting, the endless new ideas on the Chaolai floor still become a dark horse, rushing out of everyone's sight and attracting the attention of the gentry.
And when the curious gentry went to visit, they found that the restaurant not only has a lot of novelties, but also the dishes are delicious, and the unnamed paintings on the walls are also quite mysterious and extraordinary, and they soon became repeat customers.
In just half a month, Chao Lai Lou has made a name for himself in Li City, and has been quite popular recently.
"By the way, Chaolai Building has also released new wine, which has a very mellow taste, and has been praised by many gentry masters... If the master wants to see new ideas, the subordinates can arrange it."
The attendant guessed that his master probably checked Tang Yu's ability with his own eyes, and continued to add.
"kindness."
Yin Yu nodded in agreement, looking into the distance.
*******
34. Gouging and tyrants
Chaolailou's business has been getting better and better recently.
Although it has only been half a month since the reopening, it has already produced many repeat customers and is on the right track.
Liu San had been the shopkeeper of the restaurant for most of his life, and he was basically able to manage it alone, but Tang Yu still went to visit it every day, checking the restaurant's problems while getting acquainted with the gentry in Licheng.
When lighting up the gourmet skill book before, Tang Yu deliberately spent points to highlight the wine-making skills.
Of course, it is impossible to make wine in a few days, but the wine here can be distilled and purified. The alcohol content here is too low, and the wine that has been purified a few degrees will immediately become popular with everyone without any surprises. liquor.
At present, due to productivity reasons, wine brewed from grain is considered a luxury, and it is completely fine as a signboard.
The dish of 'Beggar's Chicken' tasted so good before that it didn't attract high-status gentry lords here, but the distilled and purified wine did.
Because Tang Yu deliberately asked Liu San to do hunger marketing, limiting the sale to only five jars a day, and only to the customers who ate in restaurants, those gentry who were greedy for alcohol naturally couldn't sit still and had to come to the door in person.
And Tang Yu took advantage of this shameless to strike up acquaintances, taking advantage of his identity as the nephew of the owner of the restaurant, and seeing that he was well-behaved and educated, everyone did not dislike talking to him.
No matter in that era, networking is a very important thing, and this world with a class system and backward news is even more prosperous.
Naturally, Tang Yu did not strike up a conversation casually. Anyway, his current status is a scholar who has studied. He is too obsequious and active, so he will not lose his price. He just goes up to explain something when the nobles are interested in the calligraphy and paintings on the wall. two.
Showing off his ability in this way makes him look acquainted without any identity.And under his deliberate publicity, the "unknown layman" of Chaolailou's calligraphy and painting has gradually become familiar.
Liu San was secretly amazed that at such an age, his young master's wrists were not inferior to those of the original master's.
However, the business of the restaurant has suddenly improved, so the jealousy of the peers cannot be avoided. At present, many restaurants are imitating their restaurant's various innovations and operating systems.
This kind of thing cannot be avoided in modern times, let alone ancient times?The result now is completely as expected.
And one thing happened faster than Tang Yu imagined, that is... being poached.
"Young master, Yingji said that she will not do it after this month's performance."
Today, as soon as Tang Yu arrived at the restaurant, Liu San hurriedly pulled him to the room, anxious to talk about it.
When the stage play was welcomed, he asked Liu San to discuss long-term cooperation with his daughter-in-law quickly, in order to avoid this kind of poaching and job-hopping, but she is not stupid, her eyes are very poisonous. The value of the restaurant performance, only promised to sign a contract for a period of one month.
Now it is said that the contract will not be renewed after this month. If there is no accident, someone must have been poached.
"Let's just say, which restaurant lured her away at a high price?"
"The guy from the White Crane Tower opposite us..."
Liu San hates it, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the two restaurants they opened face to face, Baihe Tower will not be reconciled to monopolizing this street unless they are killed.
But Penglai Building doesn't bother with these tricks at all. Behind Penglai Building is Mr. Qu, which represents status. Regardless of their ingenious intentions or not, the real gatherings of the gentry lords in Licheng will go there, and they don't worry about guests at all.
"Then what does Mr. Bai mean?"
"Bai Gongzi said that he still wants to continue to work with us." Speaking of this, Liu San's face turned brighter, at least the two protagonists did not finish.
"We have a small temple here. Since Yingji wants to leave, let her go. The twisted melon is not sweet... Tell him to Mr. Bai, don't rush to leave after the performance every day, and stay an extra hour. I have Give him the new script, and I will give him Yingji's share of money in the future, and he will get double."
Tang Yu nodded, and didn't care that Yingji was poached, their restaurant didn't have to be Yingji.
But Liu San was very worried, "Young Master, shall we not find a Meiji anymore? Can we just rely on Mr. Bai?"
"It's okay. Uncle Liu, you have to remember that the popularity of women's performances in our restaurant is not due to their own charm, but because of our restaurant's script. In other words, if they leave our restaurant, they will have nothing to do No. Mr. Bai is obviously a sensible person."
Tang Yu smiled. There are too many big-hearted people in the world. He has considered poaching, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.
But it doesn't matter, now the restaurant doesn't rely on these people to eat, on the contrary, these people rely on the restaurant to make money, and they leave as they go, only to see people with small profits crying when they are.
"It's not a long-term thing to perform stage plays all the time. After all, we are a restaurant here, not a nun's teaching workshop. After Yingying sings and dances for a long time, the nature of the restaurant will change. Don't worry, Uncle Liu, I have already thought about countermeasures. You put me just now. Just tell Mr. Bai what you say."
Tang Yu was not worried, and calmly comforted Liu San.
Liu San was apprehensive. Logically speaking, after being the shopkeeper of the restaurant for so many years, he should have been calm in the face of all kinds of changes in the restaurant, but during this period of time, the restaurant had too many ups and downs, which really put his mental endurance to the test.
After finally seeing the improvement of the restaurant, and encountering such a thing as poaching, he can't panic, he is afraid that something will happen to the restaurant, it is all his wealth and life.
Liu San left with a sad face and cheered up to greet the guests.
Tang Yu continued to calmly look around the various gentry in the restaurant, looking for targets to make friends with. The restaurant is not worried. What he is worried about now is the task of the staff. If the time limit is exceeded, there will be no points.
If the scumbag's second uncle didn't write him a letter of recommendation, he would just find someone else, all roads lead to Rome, why are you so brainless?
Suddenly, Tang Yu saw a familiar figure coming in from the door.
Yin tyrant? ?
Tang Yu was taken aback, a little bewildered, why did the Yin tyrant condescend and come to their restaurant? Also, didn't the other party say that it was okay to ask him to meet less people?He's going to be an undercover agent soon!
And Yin Yu at the door keenly noticed him sitting in the corner immediately, glanced at him, and then the attendant lifted the wheelchair up to the private room on the second floor for dinner.
As a 'loyal' confidant, Tang Yu naturally quickly realized what this look meant.
When the master calls, the mountains of swords and seas of fire have to go up.
"Xiao Mu, the Tianzi private room on the second floor is a distinguished guest. I'll go and greet you, lest you accidentally offend me."
Tang Yu explained to the waiter on the second floor, brought a jug of wine, and hurried over.
The private room Yin Yu sat in was still the same as usual, he chose the one near the window, and he was still accompanied by the two attendants named Ah Jiu and Ah Shi.
It was Liu San who led the people in. Liu San had a lot of knowledge. He saw the guests riding in a bronze carriage at the door. .
However, Yin Yu is not something ordinary people can greet. His expressionless face and hostile eyes make people feel afraid when they see him. The air around him is like a natural air conditioner. In this late autumn The temperature is even more frighteningly cold.
Liu San stood beside him, not daring to vent his anger, and was terribly frightened.
When Tang Yu knocked on the door and saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile in his heart. After meeting and getting along with each other a few times, he already felt a little bit of Yin Yu's temper. This man is actually a bit like a lion with fried fur. .
"Uncle Liu, I will take care of this distinguished guest. Your lord is of extraordinary status. I have read a few words, and I have a few words with you. You go to the lobby to look after the guy."
Uncle Liu didn't know they knew each other, he just thought he was here to make a rescue, so he was a little hesitant.
The guests in front of him were not easy to serve, so what if he was afraid that the young master would accidentally offend him?
But seeing that the distinguished guests didn't seem to object, Uncle Liu could only retreat full of worries. Although he opened a restaurant to make money, the guests were not so easy to serve.
After Tang Yu waited for Liu San to go out, he waited for 2 minutes to avoid listening to the corner, and then brought the wine to the table.
Then actively and respectfully pour wine for others, with a happy expression on his face, "Master, you have a taste of this wine. Although I didn't brew it, it was distilled by me. The taste of the wine is much stronger than what the master drank last time. The master will definitely drink it." like!"
Although he doesn't intend to be the wife of Yin Tyrant, but he wants to be the most confidant subordinate of the other party, who can serve the master and be the master's friend, this is the best confidant.
So after confirming that Yin Yu had no intention of killing him, Tang Yu became more courageous.
And this kind of attitude is really useful to Yin Yu. After all, Yin Yu is still a human being, no matter how cruel and gloomy his temper is.
As the saying goes, the heights are too cold.The occasional special appearance will make this kind of person very fresh.
Of course, the premise is that you must know how to advance and retreat, and be knowledgeable.Blindly silly, white and sweet is stupid, not special.
Tang Yu obviously did a good job at this point.
So Yin Yu tolerantly allowed the etiquette that he occasionally didn't notice. Although he was a little uncomfortable looking at the young man who was close to him, his gloomy mood was inexplicably good.
"You've never been so afraid of me?"
Yin Yu picked up the wine bottle and smelled the strong aroma of the wine with a calm expression.
But without testing the poison, he drank the wine brought by Tang Yu directly, but he was able to show the attitude of the other party, which seemed to give him a lot of trust.
Tang Yu didn't know whether Yin Yu really believed him or not, but it didn't matter.
He spoke briskly, with a smile on his face, and with sincerity from the heart, "Yu said it, I want to repay you, master. Yu's life is yours, so why should I be afraid of master? If I can talk to master, Yu was extremely happy."
The young man's youthful face is exquisite and lovely, his clear voice makes people feel more comfortable, and his tone is more sincere and candid.
Getting along with such a person is the easiest. Yin Yu knows that he is not simple, but he is very happy with this attitude, because no matter what else, Tang Yu's sincerity can't be faked.
Yin Yu's indifferent face has soft eyebrows and eyes, staring at the smiling Yan Yan,
"Do you know why I came to see you today?"
How could Tang Yu, who was as smart as he was, not be able to guess that the affairs of the staff hadn't made any progress in half a month. This efficiency was a bit embarrassing, but he was so eloquent and narcissistic before that he panicked.
The smile suddenly turned into sorrow, and he poked his finger with an aggrieved expression, "Master..."
