Kaifeng Bistro

After finishing speaking, he called another person who looked like a cashier: "Lao Li, let him do the math, how much money should he pay a year?"

The Li accountant smacked his lips pretendingly, and said to Yi Yi: "Bring your abacus to me."

Yi Yi sneered: "Isn't it just twelve months a year? What kind of calculations do you need, I'll do the math for you."

Zhuo Zhuo also ran down when he heard the movement. "Early in the morning!" She raised her willow eyebrows, opened her almond eyes, and pointed at Chen Dafu aggressively: "Don't tell me to let my mother sleep!"

"You, you bully..." Shangshang also plucked up the courage to shout, "Don't think that brother Zhifeng is easy to bully, he, he is also very powerful!"

Tan Zhifeng quickly grabbed Zhuo Zhuo, and said to her: "You take Chang Chang to the back first!"

Of course Zhuo Zhuo didn't do it, but just as she was about to refute, Dafu Chen's face changed, and he walked over with a smile, "Oh, it turns out that shopkeeper Tan still has such a treasure here...Little lady, how old are you?"

"Bah!" Zhuo Zhuo spit angrily: "Speaking out will scare you to death, hurry up and take your people away! Stop talking nonsense!"

Chen Dafu's eyes widened: "Presumptuous! Tan Zhifeng, if you indulge these two little servants in talking nonsense again, I'll have her and this kid taken away and sold! You owe me the money and use your servants to pay off the debt. It's only natural!"

Tan Zhifeng suppressed the anger in his heart, and said to Chen Dafu: "At that time, you said that if we can get half a year's rent at the end of the month, let us continue to rent it. If not, we will leave. The paper is still here, you are a businessman , how can you be so dishonest?!"

"Hehehe..." Chen Dafu squeezed his beard and laughed: "It was signed by me and you, but the deed is not in my name at all, so it doesn't count if I say it. I told you clearly just now, My family members are getting angry... Lao Li, quickly calculate, how much is five per month, how much is one year?"

"Wait!" Tan Zhifeng and the others yelled together: "Didn't we agree on Sanguan!"

"Sanguan is old man Zhang's house. There is a small courtyard next to yours for storing sundries. There are two vacant rooms. Because you cook here all the time, it is smoky. The small courtyard has not been rented out for a long time. Yes! If you want to continue to live, you have to rent the yard as well." Relying on his large number of people, Mr. Chen said more and more brazenly: "This is what old man Zhang did before. This house and yard belong to him. He gave me five pennies a month."

Tan Zhifeng's heart sank, five pens a month, sixty pens a year, he couldn't afford so much money no matter what.Moreover, the opponent's approach was menacing, and it seemed that it had been premeditated.It would not be good for him to drive himself away. It is probably a common trick of him or his master, and he must want to cheat himself, a foreigner.

"We just opened our business not long ago, so we don't have so much money." Tan Zhifeng said straight to the point, "Chen Dafu, what exactly do you want?"

Chen Dafu grinned, and walked a few steps slowly into the room: "Shopkeeper Tan, I think your tavern is doing pretty well. Have you ever thought about it, if I didn't rent such a good shop to you at that time, You are a newcomer, even if you have the best craftsmanship, it is impossible to gain a firm foothold in Kaifeng within a month, right?! Speaking of which, your rent for this month should be credited to you by my family members. This is what we invested The capital in this small shop of yours. When you make money in the future, will you also share some profits with my family members?"

"What?! What!" Zhuo Zhuo stomped his feet and shouted, "Where is there such a reason?"

Yi Yi also sneered and said: "So that's the case, the vicious dog saw meat hanging in other people's homes, so he wanted to rush up to grab a piece?!"

When Chen Dafu heard this, his veins twitched violently, but Tan Zhifeng asked calmly: "According to the wishes of your family member, how much profit do you want to give him?"

Chen Dafu held back his anger, and said in a strange way: "I have seen that Shopkeeper Tan has some ability and experience in the world, otherwise I would not rent this house to you. When you came here that day, you came empty-handed. Tables, chairs, pots and stoves are all available, otherwise... you can go to the two sides of Yujie and ask, which one will not pay back its capital in a year or so?"

Tan Zhifeng stared at him intently, he coughed dryly, dragged his voice, and said: "Well... this is not something I made, it's a rule set by my family members, whether you are a tea house selling tea or a wine seller shop, or what kind of incense shop, fruit shop, bead shop, as long as you rent the place of my house, you have to pay a quarter of the profit every month. Naturally, this profit will not let you pay in vain. You don’t know, this Kaifeng city There are often people who eat free food, make trouble, and those idlers come to provoke... We have these brothers under our staff, no matter how unreasonable guests you come here, they will keep you safe and safe. The most important thing in business is the word "safety", shopkeeper Tan, don't you think so?"

Tan Zhifeng lowered his face, and said: "I know that I should rent your precious land and let a profit of one or two cents be right, but the profit of four cents is too heavy. We are a small business, and we don't have so much money to honor your family members."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and said to Yi Yi: "It seems that Tokyo is not a place for us to stay. This month's rent will be left to Mr. Chen. Pack up your things and let's go back to our hometown in Kuizhou."

This Chen Dafu has always used this trick of deceiving and then intimidating to deal with businessmen from other places. The other party is always afraid to provoke him, and at most bargains with him a little. He has never seen it.He glared viciously: "What are you guys still doing in a daze! Smash these broken tables and chairs for him first!"

Tan Zhifeng didn't want to fight him at first, but judging from the current situation, if he insisted on giving in, it might be difficult to get out today.

He secretly circulated the spiritual power in his body, although it was not much, it was more than enough to deal with these few people.Before he could make a move, Zhuo Zhuo picked up the chair that Tan Zhifeng made for Shangshang, and threw it at the two strong men who broke into the shop first.

The chair itself is very light, but when it left Burning's hand, a pale pink light quickly appeared in the air. Before the person on the other side could react, the chair hit the first person's outstretched arm with a bang. Then it fell heavily on the shoulders of the second person.

It was still dark outside, and only a few blunt noises were heard in the darkness. The two of them stopped immediately, and after a while, they let out a piercing wail: "Ouch! It hurts me to death!"

"Ah?! You girl, how dare you beat someone..." Chen Dafu yelled angrily, Tan Zhifeng took the opportunity to walk up to him, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "These young men in my family know some kung fu, but Never easily compete with others. You might as well go back and tell your master that exploiting the tenants like this is probably not a serious way of making money...or is it that you, Dafu Chen, also have a share of the quarter profit?"

Chen Dafu's whole arm hurt, he became angry and almost jumped up: "Why are you guys still standing there? What do you do to support you?!"

Those people looked at each other, unwilling to follow in the footsteps of the two in front. One of them was hesitant to go in, but he heard a calm and majestic voice from behind: "Chen Dafu, come early in the morning to my brother Tan Xian Are you here for tea too?"

Chen Dafu was taken aback, and looking back, Zhan Zhao was wearing a crimson official uniform, with thick brows bristling, staring at him angrily.He was so frightened that he hurried forward to salute: "Master Zhan, this is not the business of a villain. Because the shopkeeper Tan did not pay the deposit at the beginning of the month, my family members were afraid of him... afraid that he would not be able to turn around at the end of the month, so I specially asked the little one to pay the deposit. Come to ask, can... can I have a grace period of two days..."

"Really?" Zhan Zhao took a few steps forward without looking at him, looking at Tan Zhifeng: "Zhifeng, is this the case?"

Tan Zhifeng didn't even look at Chen Dafu's hateful face, and smiled slightly at Zhan Zhao: "Not only that, Mr. Chen also kindly reminded us that in Kaifeng city, there are often freeloaders, troublemakers, and idlers who come to provoke us." Yes, if we need it, we can spend money to eliminate disasters... But I thought, shouldn't these matters be left to the Kaifeng Mansion and Zhanwei to take care of you?"

Zhan Zhao turned his head, his sword-like eyes swept over Chen Dafu and the group of accomplices he brought.Just hearing Zhan Zhao's name, this group of people had already retreated in fright, and at this time, two of them had already run away without a trace.Chen Dafu was still defending: "Master Zhan, you also know that my master does have such rules, and I hope Master Zhan will not make things difficult for us small people."

"Zhifeng's shop, you don't need to worry about it outside your yard. If anyone comes here to cause trouble, including you and your subordinates, I, Zhan Zhao, will teach him a lesson." Zhan Zhao said plainly: "Just remember this point. .”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and told the four people: "If I go out of the city on business, you can come here often to see if there is anyone who doesn't have eyes and dares to trouble Zhifeng."

"Haha," Wang Chao and Ma Han smiled at each other, and Ma Han said, "It just so happens that the mutton biscuits in shopkeeper Tan's place are very suitable for my taste. Even if you don't mention Master Zhan, we will inevitably take care of him every day." business."

At this moment, the sky was gradually getting brighter, and the customers who came to Tan Zhifeng's shop early in the morning on weekdays began to gather at the door of the shop, pointing at Chen Dafu.

"I'm sorry," Tan Zhifeng went out and cupped his hands and said, "As you all have seen, there is something to do this morning, I'm afraid breakfast will be half an hour late..."

When Chen Qing heard the movement, he also ran over from the opposite side. Seeing that Chen Dafu was still preoccupied, he scolded angrily, "It's you?! How dare you disturb Zhifeng?!"

"Yes, yes, ah no, alas, it's all the villain's fault!" Chen Dafu looked dejected, and the vicious energy just now was swept away, and he bowed to Chen Qing with special respect: "Small man, villain Let's go."

After all, he didn't even care about his injured subordinate, and slipped towards the alley as if oiling the soles of his feet. The scholars behind him cursed for a while, most of them were saying that he was a bully and oppressed the tenants casually.

"What's going on!?" A deep and stern voice suddenly came from among the crowd, and the voices of other people's discussions suddenly became much quieter. "Hey, isn't this Xu Blacksmith's son? How did you come here?" Someone asked aloud.
