"Everyone is here, but Gu is late." Gu Beichuan apologized slightly.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Everyone is busy all day long, so we are lucky to be able to take the time to meet you."
As soon as Gu Beichuan sat down, the boss who just said that Gu Beichuan was scared spoke hurriedly, but his words were full of flattery.
Pooh! Old dog! Who here is not a thousand-year-old fox, playing such tricks?
How shameless!
"Dong Gu has come a long way, why don't you drink some tea to moisten your throat?"
"There happens to be a high-quality Longjing here, waiter, why don't you go and pour it for everyone?" Another owner said.
"Hey, don't listen to him, Mr. Gu. How can Longjing be worthy of Mr. Gu? You still have to use my fine Tieguanyin to moisturize your throat!"
"Hmph, in my opinion, everyone Gu's favorite is me, Bi Luochun."
Before Gu Beichuan could say anything, a group of bosses started to argue.
Suddenly, the box suddenly became noisy.
Gu Beichuan didn't care and just looked at it. While watching, he smiled.
Acting, who can't?
If he had melon seeds in his hand, Gu Beichuan could even eat them on the spot.
After quarreling for a while, seeing that Gu Beichuan was indifferent, all the hosts lost their composure and their throats felt uncomfortable, so they simply stopped making noise and sat down one after another.
"Everyone, the main reason why we came today is to ask, Feihong... can you spare some business for me?"
"More business? What does Mr. Zhou mean by this?"
"Since ancient times, everyone has done business based on their abilities. How can there be any reason for people to split the business?" Gu Beichuan smiled and shook his head.
"Gu everyone, that's not what you said."
"Now Feihong seems to be the only one, but if we are forced to join forces and join forces, I am afraid that we will not be able to please everyone."
"Oh? What Zhou Dongjia means is that you haven't united yet?"
Listening to Gu Beichuan's rhetorical questions, these bosses felt like they had been slapped hard several times, and their faces were burning with pain.
Yes, they have clearly united to fight against Feihong, but they still want to come out to argue.
Isn't this... isn't this why we still need to erect an archway?
But, there is really nothing we can do.
In their hands, they didn’t have any leverage to negotiate with Feihong.
Seeing that the negotiations were at an impasse, Liu Dongjia coughed twice and said:
"How about this, how about we collect some money and buy the secret recipes of the dishes Feihong made at the Huainan Poetry Club that day from everyone Gu?"
As soon as he said this, he didn't wait for Gu Beichuan to reply. The rest of the restaurant owners sighed hard in their hearts at Dong Liu's house.
What's this idea?
Those few dishes are the foundation for Feihong to settle down and live his life.
I'm afraid it's worth as much as the imperial chef Sun Huaimin. How could they sell it to you?
Gu Beichuan has grown his business to such a great extent in just a few months since he opened Liuji Liquor Shop.
But don’t treat others as fools. If they anger the other person and walk away, what should we do?
This man surnamed Liu really succeeds more than he fails.
However, what surprised everyone was.
Instead of getting angry, Gu Beichuan nodded seriously and said, "Okay."
"I'm just telling you, with such an important secret recipe, how could it be possible for everyone to...what? Okay!" Dongjia Zhou trembled all over and almost fell down from his chair.
"Gu, are you telling the truth?" All the restaurant owners present beamed with joy when they heard this.
"Of course, a gentleman's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold! As a scholar, credibility is the most important thing."
"It's true, in the past few days, everyone in Huainan has been spreading the word about Gu's talent and fame."
"Then I don't know... Gu, what price do you want to sell it for?"
The owners have long been mentally prepared, knowing that the price is probably not low.
But no matter how much money you have, you still have to buy it. This is something you can live on!
"One thousand taels of silver for each family!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire box suddenly became silent, with only Gu Beichuan's voice echoing.
One thousand taels of silver? This price...
Not too expensive, but too cheap!
Yes, it's so cheap.
For ordinary farmers, one thousand taels is naturally an incredible amount of money.
But to them, it is nothing, it can only be regarded as slightly expensive.
It's nothing to Feihong. With Feihong's current turnover, I'm afraid he can earn a thousand taels of silver within a month, and there's still more!
How could he sell this crucial secret recipe for a mere thousand taels of silver?
There must be something fishy about this matter!
"Looking at everyone, are there any other conditions?" Liu Dongjia asked cautiously.
"nature."
After hearing this, all the hosts showed relieved smiles.
They are all old foxes who have been ups and downs in the business world for decades. How can they not understand that there is no pie in the world for nothing?
"If you have any requests, please come. We will try our best to satisfy them."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"I don't ask for much, just two."
"First of all, each of your restaurants must change the plaque to Feihong Restaurant."
As soon as this statement came out, most people frowned.
Those who run the restaurant business are often inherited from their families.
In other words, this plaque has been passed down from generations of the family. How can it be easily changed?
"Here... why don't you please change your request? How about I pay more money?"
"What? You can't do the first one? It seems that you are not sincere, so let's not discuss this matter."
After saying that, Gu Beichuan stood up and made a move to leave.
"Look out for everyone, please don't do this."
I saw that Zhou Dongjia actually hugged Gu Beichuan's waist, and even squeezed out a few tears, as if he was crying.
this……
This scene made Gu Beichuan really bewildered.
One by one, it would be a shame not to win an Oscar.
Even Liu Dongjia and others were extremely speechless, cursing secretly in their hearts:
"Old Zhou, this old immortal, really doesn't even have the dignity to show his face."
"Looking after everyone, it's not that I don't want to do it, but it's hard to violate the ancestral precepts. This change of the plaque... is really a bit treasonous."
"In that case, I will take a step back."
"You can keep the name of your restaurant, but you need to add the word Feihong in front of the name."
"Just like you, Dong Zhou's Zhou Ji Restaurant can be renamed Feihong Restaurant·Zhou Ji Branch."
"Is that good?"
After hearing this, everyone made eye contact, and then said in unison:
"Very good, very good."
As long as there are no traces of one's family left on the plaque, then there is no need to worry, and it is enough to explain to the ancestors.
After all, it’s just a plaque. If you don’t bring it with you during life and death, what will happen if you change it?
And what Gu Beichuan gave them was real money!
"Everyone, please tell me your second request."
"Say yes, please let me go first."
Hearing this, Boss Zhou coughed twice and retracted his hand angrily.
