I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

The aristocratic family gritted their teeth, and managed to maintain the situation after being slaughtered a few times.

For a while, he would not dare to attack Yin Xuan again.

This matter is very demonic, they are the ones who suffer when they attack Yin Xuan - they don't lose too much, but the fist still hurts after all.

Especially Yin Xuan's fist, which was so big and hard, they really couldn't bear it.

For those aristocratic families in Jiangdong, the letter is still on its way.

The Confucius family in Qufu had contact with them, but for some reason... They didn't really want to take this group of people with them, they always felt stupid, and they didn't even know the identities of the little old men in the restaurant... It seemed too uncomfortable Reliable.

The chess jihad continues.

It has already reached the semi-finals, and Yin Xuan has set up the best stage for them.The deep courtyard, bamboo forest and flowing water are almost the most elegant scenes in the minds of scholars.

This painstaking arrangement also paid off.

The reputation of the branch reaches 27, just as Yin Xuan guessed before, it is indeed because the branch has irreplaceable characteristics in people's hearts that the fame is unlocked.

Maybe after the finals are over, the reputation can grow a little bit more, and then a branch will be unlocked.

But the thing to consider now is how to deal with this branch.

Now that my conjecture has been confirmed, it is not suitable to open a branch in a place that has already opened a branch, and it is not even suitable to be located in the surrounding cities.

Jinyang?

Lin'an?

Yin Xuan rubbed his chin and thought about it, but he rejected them one by one. Now that they are exhibited in branch stores, he doesn't expect them to make much money. Unlocking more branch places is the most important thing.

In other words, if there is such a place, a branch store will immediately become a special store in the hearts of people in that place, and it is most suitable to open there.

Thinking about it this way opened my mind.

Immediately, a place name popped up in Yin Xuan's mind - "Qufu".

Probably there is no better place to open a branch than that.

People from the Confucian family in Qufu should know that their restaurant is called "Tongfu"... Then once their branch opened, it became a special existence for the Confucian family.

Can you directly unlock a branch quota on the day the branch opens?

Yin Xuan rubbed his hands together, looking forward to it.

The Confucian family in Qufu is a little slow to the outside world. The Changan City Chess Jihad Final Jiufanqi has already started the third game, and the Qufu branch is almost ready.

They just found out why Wumen Qiwang rejected the Kong family at such a critical moment when they needed help.

In Kong's house.

"These juniors really don't take my Kong family seriously." A clan elder gritted his teeth, held his heart, and said bitterly, "My ancestor was regarded as the most holy teacher. At that time, they are afraid that they have not yet matured."

"Now we take the initiative to reach out to them, is this their reaction?"

The other clan elders were silent, but with such expressions on their faces, their thoughts were similar to those of the one who spoke.

Another clan elder spoke slowly, and lightly tapped the table: "The question is... what should we do now?"

The others remained silent.

No matter how arrogant the words are, the facts are indisputable facts.

The current Kong family is very tricky.

They thought that after Kong Yingda separated and returned to Chang'an, it would only embarrass the Kong family to some extent, but it would not cause much trouble.

But he never expected that after Kong Yingda returned to Chang'an, he would be able to come up with something to reform the imperial examination system, and even become a third-rank official, adding more officials and nobles.

Ask again.

To be precise, it is not to inquire, but to be told.The disciple of the Kong family they sent to Chang'an was dead, and his brain was sent over in a wooden box.

Intending to frame the emperor, he was executed mercilessly.

The attitude of the imperial court, or Li Tang's royal family, is obvious, and they support Kong Yingda.

This character who they once thought would be a bit embarrassing is no longer a "freshman". Although they are decayed, they still have the most basic sensitivity.

If the Five Schools and Seven Watches are resolved, their Qufu Confucian family will naturally be no exception.

At that time, it will not be that Kong Yingda has lost face to their Qufu Confucian family, but their Qufu Confucian family has lost face to Chang'an Xin Confucian family, and then the Chang'an Confucian family and scholars from all over the world will be like sweeping garbage, mercilessly Throw it in the trash.

This is the reason why they contacted Wumen Qiwang.

The Kong family has always been unwilling to lower their status and stand on an equal footing with these younger generations, but the situation is such that they passively stand on the same front, so they have to make friends.

But unexpectedly, the Kong family was rejected and declined.

After all, the Kong family was in the court, and there was no one else except Kong Yingda.

"In Qufu, has the news about Kong Yingda spread?" No one answered that question, but someone raised a new question.

"It's suppressed." Another clan elder replied, he shook his head, "In the clan... except for a few, no one else knows the news."

The clan elder sighed: "Let's keep it a secret for now."

The news that Kong Ying has reached the Marquis of Qufu County, if it gets out, if the people in the Kong family know about it, I don't know what kind of trouble will be caused.

Especially those young people who had mocked Kong Yingda severely when he left the Kong family.

Those young people who don't know much about the world don't have the ability to resist pressure.

"As for Chongyuan..." The clan elder narrowed his eyes, his attitude was a little shaken, "Write another letter, say something nice, and see if I can persuade you."

"If it doesn't work, let some benefits go to the Wang family, and you still have to unite with them."

He is not going to give up any benefits, just wants to persuade Kong Yingda by saying some good things, but he is willing to give up some benefits to people other than his relatives.

"I understand." The clan elder in charge of foreign affairs liaison agreed, before the others could vote on their opinions.

Of course, no one else would object.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

A clan elder responded, and someone outside pushed the door and walked in, holding a white invitation card in his hand.

"A guest came outside just now and said that he would hand over this invitation card to you anyway." While talking, he handed the white invitation card to the hand of the clan elder who was closest to him.

"What's the origin?" The clan elder took it over and frowned.

The man replied: "It seems that a big businessman from Chang'an bought a two-story restaurant in Qufu."

"It's a merchant." The clan elder nodded and sneered, "It's no wonder that an ignorant person would do such a rude thing."

Such things as invitations and greetings...

There is no use of white paper.
