Chapter 877: Duplicity
Zhang Juexia gave Qin Eryong a look that told him to shut up, and Qin Eryong shut up obediently.
Zhou Jiu also sat up straight and pretended to listen attentively.
"I can't sell you barbecue seasoning!"
Zhou Jiu lost his temper, his waist slumped instantly, and he looked listless.
Zhang Juexia sneered in his heart, how confident must this guy be!
Why should I hand over such a profitable business to you? Besides, you had bad intentions when you opened this hot pot shop!
"However, Manager Zhou, if you really want to sell fish in your shop, that's fine."
Zhou Jiu felt alive again, "Boss Zhang, are you serious?"
"Of course, I never tell lies. It's just that the recipe for one dish costs one hundred taels, and you can give me 30% of the profit from selling it every month.
I also provide the fresh fish for your shop.
If Manager Zhou can agree to my terms, we can cooperate."
As soon as Zhang Juexia finished speaking, Zhou Jiu's face darkened. "Boss Zhang, such harsh conditions, do you not want to cooperate with me anymore?"
Zhang Juexia didn't indulge him, "I didn't say I had to cooperate with you, I just stated my conditions.
If you think it's inappropriate, you don't have to agree!
Shopkeeper Zhou, you should think about it carefully. Come on, show the guests out!"
Qin Eryong looked very happy and waved his hand, "Master Zhou, please come in!"
Zhou Jiu frowned and waved his hand. He wanted to say something like, "Don't regret it. Just wait for me."
But then he thought, what qualifications does he have, and he had to leave in disappointment.
After Zhou Jiu left, Li Yun came in and said, "Madam, this man really doesn't know his place."
Zhang Juexia kept thinking about one thing, "Sister-in-law Yang, go and tell Eryong to come to me as soon as he comes back."
"OK."
Li Yun trotted out.
Qin Eryong escorted Zhou Jiu out of the village, "Master Zhou, take care."
Zhou Jiu couldn't help but want to vent his anger on Qin Eryong. "I'm telling you, don't be so judgmental. Just wait, the day will come when I, Zhou Jiu, will rise again."
Qin Eryong didn't indulge him either. He squinted his eyes and looked at Zhou Jiu, "Let me guess, what will Master Zhou rely on to stand up.
Did you steal and buy a fake prescription, or rely on a woman?"
"you?"
Qin Eryong moved closer to Zhou Jiu and said, "Master Zhou, this is a different time now. In the past, you relied on Liu Hong to bully others in Jinshui Town.
But I wasn't afraid of you at that time.
Now I am even less afraid. If you know what's good for you, leave now and don't let me let the dogs bite you.
Also, remember what my sister-in-law said.
As a grown man, don't waste your time on doing good business and think about calculating women's money every day.
This kind of money comes quickly and goes away quickly."
"you....."
Just as Zhou Jiu was about to take action, Qin Eryong waved his hand, and several men from the village stood in front of Zhou Jiu, leading several ferocious dogs.
Zhou Jiu was so scared that he peed his pants instantly, and he crawled onto the carriage with Cheng Xiaowu.
After the carriage ran two miles away, Zhou Jiu was still shaking with fear!
Cheng Xiaowu was not much better off, he slumped in the carriage, "Master, they are going too far."
Zhou Jiu calmed himself down and glanced at Cheng Xiaowu, "Why didn't you tell me there was a dog on this farm?"
"Little one, I..."
"Okay, I'm telling you, don't mention this to anyone."
"I understand, Master. What should we do next?"
"What else can we do? Let's figure it out slowly!
The conditions she proposed show that she doesn't want to cooperate with us at all."
Cheng Xiaowu yelled unconvincedly, "Master, we are all seven feet tall men, how can we let a woman suppress us? Otherwise, I will bring a few people and put her..."
Cheng Xiaowu made a snapping motion, and Zhou Jiu raised his leg and kicked her, "She is not someone you and I can touch now.
I'm telling you, you'd better give up on this idea. I don't want to be implicated by you."
Cheng Xiaowu grimaced in pain, "Master, why are you so cruel? Just tell me directly that this woman cannot be touched.
Master, since that woman cannot be touched, can those people in the village be touched?"
Zhou Jiu gave him another murderous look, "You didn't see what Zhuangzi looked like!
There are men patrolling with dogs in broad daylight. You don't want to live, but I, your grandfather, value my life too!
Besides, I have been reborn a long time ago. If you ask me to use such despicable tricks again, wouldn't that harm me?"
"What can we do? Master, this won't work, that won't work, we're just going to sit there and watch others bully us."
Zhou Jiu looked into the distance fiercely, "It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Even if I leave Zhang Juexia, this shop can still run."
Cheng Xiaowu instantly gained confidence, "Master, you are right."
He had already stood up, ready to listen to Zhou Jiu's next plan, but in the end there was no movement at all.
Zhou Jiu saw through his thoughts and slapped him again, "I'm not a god, and I don't have any tricks right now.
However, there is always a way out, I believe I can get through it."
Cheng Xiaowu's eyes darted around, "Master, why don't we go to Miss Zhang's place after we return.
If you give in to her, she will definitely forgive you.
Let's follow her path, maybe it will work.
If we had known this earlier, we would have brought her to Cuiliu Manor."
"Miss Zhang isn't that shameless. If she follows us, we might not even be able to enter the manor."
Cheng Xiaowu was stunned, "Master, aren't they sisters?"
"So what if they're sisters? There aren't many who fall out with each other.
Besides, they are not sisters."
"Master, I have an idea. Didn't Mr. Zhang ask us to spend money to buy a house?
Why don't you just take some money from Miss Zhang and buy the recipe from Mr. Zhang? "
Zhou Jiu's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea."
However, he thought of Zhang Juexia and Qin Eryong's words, both openly and secretly, "Let's talk about this later!"
Cheng Xiaowu still didn't give up, "Master, where did our hot pot recipe come from?
Practice makes perfect, so why not use the same method to get the recipe?
Master, let me tell you, this man is nothing in front of money.
As long as we pay enough money, there will always be someone willing to take the risk and come up with a recipe for us."
Zhou Jiu nodded and thought that what Cheng Xiaowu said was feasible, but then he remembered that Ye Yunliang had been driven out of Yejia Village.
With his example, no one in the Ye family would dare to steal the recipe.
Besides, every failure makes one wiser. As soon as he leaves, Zhang Juexia will be on guard.
This seems a bit difficult.
But Zhou Jiu still knew how to pretend. He kicked Cheng Xiaowu again and said, "How many times have I told you that I am no longer the same person as before.
I will never do such shameful things again."
