Cheng Chumo stepped forward and grabbed Wang Xiancheng, "You are so bold, you take advantage of your position to seize people's real estate, and you want to take away people's secret recipes again, a small county Cheng dares to be so prey-on with the people, it seems that your death period is over." ”"No, no, the lower officials don't, no" Li Zhen said: "No need to quibble, we just came out of Tian Dahu's house, and they said that you used one tael of silver to get the property that others bought for twenty taels, isn't this bullying the people to take advantage of it?"
We heard it clear at the door just now, you want to use this house to blackmail the Du family to hand over the ancestral secret recipe worth thousands of gold, what a good show, well done!
”It's over, hearing that the two of them have found out the ins and outs, Wang Xiancheng's body is weak, as if he has been pulled out of the bone, and his face is already white.Cheng Chumo threw it away, scolding in his mouth: "What is it?"
Hitting you is really dirty Lao Tzu's hands. ”Turning his head to look at Li Zhen, the meaning was obvious, what to do with the two of them."
Wang Xiancheng is an official of the imperial court, and the crime of knowing the law and breaking the law will be added to one degree, and you will be personally escorted to Zheng County later, and handed over to Zheng County County to deal with it according to law, and find out how much evil he has done, he should be killed, and he should be arrested.As for the shopkeeper of this place, after all, it's just a neighborhood dispute and a bully, hmph, pull it outside the door and beat it in public for a long memory. ”Then in front of everyone's eyes, Cheng Chumo beat Huang Shengcai on the street, Cheng Chumo beat heartily, but Huang Shengcai cried like a wolf, extremely miserable, that scream, frightened the people on both sides of the town closed their doors and did not dare to come forward to watch.Wang Xiancheng was taken away for investigation, and Li Zhen found Du Shaoqing and mentioned the purchase of steamed bread recipes again.The second time they met, Du Shaoqing was obviously embarrassed, and he said in the morning that these two people were liars, which was good, not only were they not liars, but they also helped solve the trouble."
I misunderstood the identities of the two sons in the morning, Du apologizes here, please speak in the back house."
Du Shaoqing led Li Zhen to the living room of the back house, and sat down, Li Zhen took out a note from his arms and handed it over, "I learned about steamed buns from a leather merchant in Chang'an the day before yesterday, and I found that this thing can be used as military food for my Tang Dynasty march, so I came here to find you, not for my personal profit."
Or what the Du shopkeeper said in the morning, our brothers are sincere to buy the Du family steamed bread recipe, after a visit to learn that the steamed bread is very popular, so we are ready to pay a thousand taels of silver to buy your secret recipe for this steamed bread, I don't know what the Du shopkeeper wants?
I know that this is a secret of the Du family, and it is easy not to be leaked, if it is a matter of price, we can discuss it again. ”There were no silver tickets during the Tang Dynasty, but there were only in the Northern Song Dynasty, so Li Zhen, who was not well prepared at this time, had to take out a note and send the agreed amount in the future.Hearing this, Du Shaoqing's body trembled, this special aristocrat is different, this is obviously a local tyrant, before our family was frugal for a little rent, and even meat was reluctant, but now people are good, and it is a thousand taels of silver as soon as they make a move?
What does this amount to?
It is equivalent to four million soft girl coins in later generations.Du Shaoqing waved his hand, "It's not a matter of money." ”Li Zhen was a little disappointed, could it be that this price was not enough to impress the other party?
It's not about money, it's about what's it?
Could it be that the ancestral teachings of the Du family cannot be passed on?
If so, it's going to be hard."
Today, the two sons are relieved of the siege for the Du family, this kind of kindness, you just want the steamed bun recipe to take it, just mention the silver, we are not people who forget their righteousness."
Du Shaoqing's words directly made Li Zhen stunned."
What?
This, one thousand taels" "Hehe, one thousand taels is indeed a huge amount of money, but a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way!
Besides, the son is used to make military rations for the army, and the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband!
It is the honor of the Du family to be able to improve the food for the soldiers who defend the country. ”After listening to Du Shaoqing's words, Li Zhen's body was shocked, the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, this is really far-reaching, it is from the mouth of a scholar and businessman, incredible, strange people, strange deeds!
It's almost unbelievable!
got up and saluted Du Shaoqing solemnly, "Under Li Zhen, on behalf of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, thank you Du for your righteousness." ”Du Shaoqing is the same age as this Li Zhen, after some talking, they are quite similar, Du Shaoqing takes a fancy to this noble son but has no shelf at all, and his cultivation is excellent, Li Zhen takes a fancy to this shopkeeper who seems to be a businessman, but he has seen and heard extremely widely, and there is no businessman at all, but he is like a hermit."
In fact, this steamed bun is not unique to my Du family, according to legend, it was created by Zhuge Liang Ping of the Southern Barbarian of Shu during the Three Kingdoms period, when the conquest of Meng was needed to pay homage to the river god, Zhuge Liang could not bear it, so he invented the steamed bun with water and noodles instead, this steamed bun is the homonym of the barbarian head.It's just that after several wars, the method of making steamed buns was lost, and we restored it by chance. ”Du Shaoqing unraveled the origin of the steamed bun, and Li Zhen admired it even more, "Brother Du is really knowledgeable, I admire it, I didn't expect it to be a strange thing in the Three Kingdoms period, but it has been lost for hundreds of years, hey!"
”After talking for a long time, the two are about to become brothers, which shows how speculative it is."
Since Brother Du doesn't accept money, then you can accept this deed that originally belonged to the Du family, we have already paid twenty taels to Tian Dahu before, and now we will give it to Brother Du, and the right should be a thank you to Brother Du for offering the secret recipe.Brother Du rest assured, if we bring this thing to Chang'an, we will definitely repay the credit truthfully, and maybe Your Majesty may have a reward at that time. ”Li Zhen took the deed sincerely.Du Shaoqing no longer shirked this time, it is best that this deed can be kept in his hands, so as not to be exiled to others again.In the evening, Cheng Chumo came back from his errand, but he had just gotten off the horse and made trouble, and it was none other than Du Shaoqing's youngest daughter Du Xuanxuan.Li Zhen and the two were still talking as if they had forgotten the time, and suddenly a child cryed outside, and then the youngest daughter Xuanxuan trotted all the way to Du Shaoqing's arms."
Wow!
Daddy, there was a bearded grandfather who snatched my steamed buns to eat, and I was snatched away by him one after a meal, wow" I couldn't say two sentences, the little girl kept crying, and her tears were like soybeans who didn't want money, and Du Shaoqing and Li Zhen felt pitiful.Picking up his daughter, Du Shaoqing said angrily: "Which old man who doesn't have long eyes, even bullying my three-year-old daughter?"
Let's go, Daddy is going to beat him up!
”"Brother Du, I will go with you below, disrespecting the old and bullying children, it is really hateful!"
The two of them didn't get out of the backyard, a burly figure strode in, and a big white steamed bun in his hand, that look like a bandit had descended.Seeing this, the little girl seemed to be very scared, and squeezed into Du Shaoqing's arms.At this time, Du Shaoqing seemed to understand, and asked in a low voice: "Daughter, didn't he rob your steamed buns?"
”The little girl was timid, where did she dare to speak, but the cry was louder, Li Zhen asked: "Chu Mo, could it be that you robbed this child's steamed buns?"
