Chapter 94 Conspiracy

In a room upstairs in Fugui Building, Lu Laosan looked at the gloomy shopkeeper Zeng, handed him a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile: "Brother Zeng, how are you? Isn't the younger brother right? Those stores People are just thorns in the side, and its very difficult to deal with.

Shopkeeper Zeng took the hot tea from Lu Laosan, took a sip, slammed the tea cup onto the table, and said angrily: "The Gu family is really shameless."

He paid forty taels of silver, but they didn't sell it. It was just a few scraps, and it was worth such a treasure. He was really angry.

Lu Laosan glanced at Chef Li, with a smile on his lips, then looked at Shopkeeper Zeng and said, "Brother Zeng, don't be angry, those families live in Dafeng Village, and Dafeng Village is the territory of my Lu family. If they dare to refuse Brother Zengs request, I will go find them when they return to the village to vent their anger on Brother Zeng.

The Lu Laosan who spoke was the third son of Mr. Lu. Shopkeeper Zeng couldn't help but go to the Gu family's tofu stall today to ask for the recipe. Lu Laosan had a share of the credit.

Lu Laosan told Shopkeeper Zeng in a sarcastic manner that the tofu stall was very profitable, earning nearly one hundred taels of silver in just over half a month. Fuguilou only made about 200 taels a month, but that shabby tofu stall made 100 taels in half a month, which was simply unbelievable.

Lu Laosan also said that the tofu is fresh and unique in the whole He'an Prefecture. If they can get the recipe, they can not only make a lot of money, but also dedicate the recipe to the county magistrate and make a great contribution. Shopkeeper Zeng You can be promoted and transferred to a restaurant in the county or prefectural city.

Although Qingfu Town is good, in the final analysis it is just a town. How can it be as lively as the county seat?

Shopkeeper Zeng was persuaded by Lu Laosan and took Chef Li, who was very interested in tofu, to the Gu family's tofu stall to buy their recipe, but the Gu family didn't sell it. It was really unreasonable.

When Chef Li heard what Lu Laosan said, he knew that the Lu family was very domineering in Dafeng Village, so he hurriedly said: "Lu San, you can't act recklessly. If you ruin the reputation of the county magistrate, I won't spare you."

Zou Xiancheng has been the county magistrate for decades and has great influence in Tianfu County. He will not pay attention to several victims who are fleeing famine, but Mrs. Zou cares about her reputation.

Chef Li didn't believe what Lu Laosan said. He wanted to speak but was stopped by Shopkeeper Zeng. Shopkeeper Zeng said: "Old Li, Brother Lu is the biological brother of Aunt Lu. For the sake of Aunt Lu, the Third Young Master and the Fifth Miss, the Third Brother Lu also I wouldnt have such thoughts.

Shopkeeper Zeng looked at Lu Laosan and said, "Then I'll leave this matter to you. Just take it easy and don't make it too embarrassing."

This is what Lu Laosan was waiting for: "Okay, Brother Zeng, don't worry, our Lu family will not bully others. After I go back, I will tell them carefully that for the sake of the people in the same village, they will definitely give Lu For the sake of my family, hand over that prescription."

With the words of Shopkeeper Zeng, the Lu family can use the name of County Prime Minister to put pressure on the Gu family. If the Gu family really makes trouble in the Yamen, and the County Prime Minister asks about it, they can push the matter to Zeng The shopkeeper said it was the tofu recipe that shopkeeper Zeng asked the Lu family to snatch.

Lu Laosan quickly left and returned to the village.

Chef Li was very worried that Lu Laosan would do something outrageous. After he left, he said to Shopkeeper Zeng: "Lao Zeng, how can you leave this matter to him? He said he would buy the house, do you believe it? ? Did the Lu family buy it with money that time?"

Shopkeeper Zeng said nonchalantly: "The Lu family's robbery is the Lu family's business. It has nothing to do with us. We promised to pay for the son from the beginning. If the Lu family really brings the prescription, we will give him forty The two pieces of silver are considered as money for the buyer, and the rest is none of our business."

Lu Laosan is shrewd in calculations, and Shopkeeper Zeng is even shrewder than him. They only want the prescription, no matter who gets it, they will pay for it. As long as the money is given, it will be enough. If you want to cause trouble to them again, it will be impossible.

After shopkeeper Zeng finished speaking, he didnt give Chef Li a chance to speak and asked him to go to the kitchen to work.

Chef Li was very worried about this matter. He went home at night and told his wife what happened during the day.

Chef Li's mother-in-law, Mrs. Ge, said: "Don't worry about this matter for now. Let them make trouble first. When something happens, we will tell the madam. The madam can also take the opportunity to punish Aunt Lu, which is only good for us." No harm.

Aunt Lu is very clever. She has been in the Zou Mansion for twenty years and she is still favored. Madam has long wanted to get rid of Aunt Lu. If the Lu family really does something that affects Zou County Cheng, that would be the best.

When Chef Li heard this, he put aside the tofu recipe and waited until the Lu family took action.
