You Can't Be Fierce Towards Me!

The store clerk rolled his eyes, his slender and long eyes flashed a shrewd smile, the Fu family's rice grain store is large, and some big households often come to buy it, if you catch a big guy, you can make a lot of money, and the extra money is used to manage things Take the big head, but also give the people below them a little soup to drink.

"Fifteen cents a dou for indica rice, twenty cents a dou for japonica rice."

Fu Huang frowned. He did his homework before he came here. The world is peaceful, and the harvest has been good in recent years, so the price of rice is not high. The general price of grain in Nanming County is eight cents for a bucket of indica rice and twelve cents for a bucket of japonica rice. , even if there are fluctuations, there is only a difference of one to two pennies.

But the price quoted by the shop assistant was nearly half more expensive than what Fu Tian knew.

Fu Tian was in a bad mood suddenly, and looked at the waiter with a half-smile, "You are such a big talker, is there anyone who dares to do business?"

The shop clerk smiled helplessly, and said helplessly: "Isn't there anything we can do, the price is set by the owner, and the people below have no choice but to listen."

"Ordered by the owner?" There was a layer of gloom between his brows, and Fu Huang looked at him coldly.

The shop clerk thought he was dissatisfied with the owner's behavior of raising prices, and immediately filled with righteous indignation: "You don't know, our previous owner was Mr. Wen from the Wen family in Sifang Town, but a while ago I heard that something happened to the Wen family. If Mrs. Wen is in charge, what do you think a woman knows?!"

"Isn't the shop just a mess?"

He was bald and said he was happy, but he didn't notice Fu Tian's increasingly ugly face.

"Just a while ago, she brought the housekeeper to the shop to collect the bills, saying that she wanted to check the bills. If you ask me, women should be quiet, and I don't know what to do. Our shop that has been in business for more than ten years still has a lot of money. Can go wrong!"

"So this price was set by Mrs. Wen?" Fu Tian interrupted his chatter and looked at him expressionlessly.

The waiter coveted his expression, rolled his eyes, nodded and said: "That's right."

Hearing what he said, Fu Tian laughed instead. Chu Xiangtian and the others thought he was going to get angry, but they didn't expect him to continue to ask: "Then should I buy this rice or not?"

"I heard that the rice in Fu's rice shop is all high-grade rice, so I brought people all the way here." Fu Tian stretched out his hand and compared a number, "I want at least this number."

The waiter's eyes widened, and he asked uncertainly, "One hundred shi? Japonica rice?"

Fu Tian nodded with a haughty look on his face, "But your price..."

"Price is not a problem..." The waiter in the shop approached him mysteriously, "Young master, can you speak a little?"

Fu Tian frowned slightly, and followed him into the room, avoiding the others.

The waiter in the shop rubbed his hands excitedly, and said with a smile, "I can give you a hundred shi of polished round-grained rice for ten cents and a bucket."

"Didn't you just say that the owner can't change the price after setting it?" Fu Tian asked calmly.

"Our rice shop really can't give it to you," the waiter said mysteriously, "but I know the shopkeeper of the Zhao family's rice shop. As for Wen Yidou, look..."

The waiter in the shop smiled, and his two small eyes were shining, looking at Fu Tian like a golden pie falling from the sky.

Fu Huang pretended to be moved by him, pondered for a while and said: "It doesn't matter which rice shop you buy from, but my batch of wine is specially made, and the round-grained rice must be good. The Zhaojia rice shop you mentioned ,You can guarantee the quality of it?"

The waiter nodded repeatedly, "No problem, the rice from Zhao's rice shop is no worse than that from Fu's."

Fu Tian glanced at him lightly, turned around with his hands behind his back, "Then take me to have a look."

"Okay, this way please." He quickly walked in front of him and led the way, and the waiter led him outside.

Fu Tian winked at Chu Xiangtian, and several people followed him out.

Zhao's rice shop is not far away, it's on the diagonally opposite street, looking from a distance, the decoration of the facade is not worse than that of Fu's house, people go in from time to time inside, it's much more lively than Fu's house's rice shop.

A few people walked in, and Xiao Er walked in familiarly, and said loudly to the steward inside: "Master Zhao, a distinguished guest has arrived."

As his words fell, a fat middle-aged man ran over erratically, and when he stopped in front of Fu Tian, ​​the fat on his chin was still trembling slightly.

"My lord, is your surname, do you want to buy rice?"

Shopkeeper Zhao looked at Fu Tian with narrowed eyes, with a philistine smile on his face.

"Miangui's surname is Li," Fu Huang swaggered around the shop with his hands behind his back, and then he said with a full gesture: "I have already said all the requirements."

The manager seemed to be smarter than the waiter in the shop, so Fu Tian pulled himself together to deal with him, pretending to be taken advantage of by being easy to deceive.

The waiter in the shop hurriedly said the request again, the shopkeeper Zhao looked more stable, and seemed to casually say: "Master, is the Li family that makes wine in Lehe Town?"

Fu Huang's expression changed, and he said bluntly, "I am Li Qingnian from the Li family in Sifang Town. Shopkeeper Zhao just says so if he doesn't want to do this business!"

Shopkeeper Zhao's face changed, and suddenly a strange face came and asked for a hundred stones of japonica rice, so he kept an eye out and tried it out, but he didn't expect that this was really the young master of the Li family. He said with a smile, "Mr. Li!" No wonder, it’s really hard to do business now, we have met a lot of Immortal Dancers, so we can’t help but be careful, if you have offended me, Zhao will make amends to you.”

Fu Huang was originally trying to give him a big shot so that he wouldn't dare to ask any more questions, so he didn't hold back after hearing the words, and started talking about the business again.

The round-grained rice of Zhao’s Rice Shop is just as the store waiter said, it’s only ten cents a bucket, which is half the price of Fu’s Rice Shop. No wonder the business of Fu’s Rice Shop is so poor.

Fu Tian held back the anger in his heart, dealt with shopkeeper Zhao for a while, and finally decided to bring someone to pick up the rice tomorrow morning.

Coming out of Zhao’s rice shop, the waiter happily sent them out for a while before turning around and going back. Just as he arrived at the shop, the steward happened to be back. The waiter showed excitement and told him what happened today, asking for credit: “Mr. Li said tomorrow Bring someone over to order some goods in the morning."

The steward patted him on the shoulder appreciatively, "Good job, you will take people to the warehouse to adjust the rice grains, and when the Zhao family settles the money, you will get more silver rewards."

Xiaoer blushed, rubbed his hands excitedly, and went outside to call for someone, ready to go to the warehouse to move rice.

******

As soon as the waiter left, the smile on Fu Tian's face collapsed, and he cursed angrily, "These white-eyed wolves who eat inside and out!"

It must be that he was really angry, his chest heaved violently a few times, and he couldn't attack outside, so he turned around twice on the spot, and finally rushed to the inn angrily.

Chu Xiangtian followed him with strides, saw his lips pursed into a straight line, and the corners of his eyes were red with anger, after thinking about it for a while without making a sound, he silently followed him all the way back to the inn.

Fu Ji had been waiting at the inn, and when he saw them coming back, he came up to ask about the situation, but Fu Tian was still angry, reluctantly nodded to him, flicked his sleeves and went upstairs.

Fu Ji couldn't figure it out, "Is this the case?" He was fine when he went out, but why did he become so angry after going out.

"It's okay, I lost my temper, I'll go up and have a look." Chu Xiangtian waved his hand to tell them not to worry, and followed him upstairs.

Pushing the door, the door was not locked, Chu Xiangtian went in and closed the door, walked to Fu Tian and sat down.

Fu Tian hung his head angrily and didn't speak, he was sullen all by himself.

"Why be angry with these people." Chu Xiangtian touched in his sleeve, but he couldn't touch the pine nut candy. He withdrew his hand regretfully, and said in relief: "When the evidence is complete, how to deal with them is up to you."

All the way back, Fu Tian's anger also subsided a little, he picked up the tea on the table and drank it down, still said angrily: "The Fu family has never treated them badly."

Chu Xiangtian rubbed his head, "Man dies for wealth, and bird dies for food."

In this world, you don't get as much reward as you pay. People's hearts are fickle, especially in the face of interests.

Fu Tian lowered his eyes, his expression changed several times, and finally he sighed deeply.

Chu Xiangtian patted him on the shoulder reassuringly. Although he didn't want to say these words, since the young master chose to provoke the burden of the Fu family, there will never be fewer such things and such people in the future.

He has to learn to handle it on his own.

"Instead of being angry, think about how to deal with them tomorrow."

The second child was very familiar with Zhaojia Mipu, it seemed that this kind of thing didn't happen only once, it was probably because of some benefits from Zhaojia Mipu.

Also, although the stewards in the shop didn't see anyone during the day, most of them also participated in it.

Moved by his words, after Fu Tian calmed down the anger in his heart, he really started to think seriously.

They only went to one rice shop, and the second rice shop was on another street, but the managers of the two rice shops were the same person, so if they wanted to punish the managers, they had to find someone to temporarily take over the rice shop in the future.

Also, the reputation of Fujia rice shop is probably ruined by these moths, so this time we must make a big fuss, so that the people of Shangming Town will know the best, and after the moths are solved, the price of rice will be lowered. , and try to retain the reputation of Fujia Rice Shop.

But what to do is the question.

"If you can't figure it out, go down and eat first."

Chu Xiangtian stood up, grabbed his wrist and took him away, "Only when you have a full stomach can you have the strength to think about business."

Fu Huang's wrist was not enough for him to grasp with one hand. The slightly rough palm encircled the thin wrist, and the thin callus on the palm was itchy. "Boom boom boom" went downstairs again.

Chu Xiangtian followed behind him slowly, twirling his fingers, recalling the delicate and smooth touch between his fingers, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly imperceptibly.

I went out in the afternoon, and when I came back, it was dinner time. Fu Ji ordered a table in the restaurant, and everyone else had already gone there, except for Chu Xiangtian and Fu Tian.

He was wandering in the lobby of the inn, thinking about how to persuade the young master when he went up, but when he looked up, he saw Fu Tian who was going downstairs with a "dong dong", and smiled even with the wrinkles on his face.

Fu Tian stopped and looked at him apologetically. Although Fu Ji was only a housekeeper, he loved him since he was a child, and he was considered half of his elders. He shouldn't lose his temper so willfully, "I was the one who was willful just now."

Fu Ji waved his hand, and fine lines formed around his eyes when he smiled, "It's okay, the food next door has already been served, let's hurry over."

The three of them went to the private room of the restaurant, and the rest of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw them come in with a relaxed expression. Fu Tian has always had a good temper, and it was the first time they saw him so angry, everyone was a little numb.

After finishing the dinner in a harmonious atmosphere, Fu Tian came up to Zhou Chuanqing again, wanting to ask him for some advice. Zhou Chuanqing was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of Chu Xiangtian's eyes slashing at him like a knife from the corner of his eyes, and paused when he reached his mouth. Pointing to Chu Xiangtian who was full of displeasure, "Boss should have a solution."

Fu Tian turned his head in doubt, Chu Xiangtian curled his lips and pointed at him, "Want to know?"

Nodding obediently, Fu Tian slowly walked up to him, looked up at him, "Think."

Chu Xiangtian gave Zhou Chuanqing a knowing look, bowed his head and said to Fu Tianwen, "Go back to the room and tell you."
