Chapter 117 The mysterious guest of the Meng family
Facts have proved that Hua Shusheng did not live up to Zhou Peirong's trust in him.
So far, Zhou Peirong's "hometown" has not had any problems.
Not only that!
Scholar Hua also sent his confidants out to help Zhou Peirong collect intelligence.
The subordinate in front of him is reporting to Scholar Hua about all the recent abnormal situations in Xifeng Town.
Among these abnormal situations, the ones that concerned Hua Shusheng the most were those who suddenly appeared and asked to join Zhou Peirong's command.
"It seems that this is Brother Zhou's achievement in Shu County, which has made all the major families in Shu County fearful!"
Scholar Hua narrowed his eyes slightly, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Since you have sent actors here, I will naturally open the stage and let your actors perform well!"
"Go on, we will divide those people up and send them to different workshops as before."
"Remember, I have only one request for each workshop, and that is to only allow those people to be exposed to one process."
"If things go wrong, I will ask for you!"
"yes!"
The subordinates agreed and immediately went down to make arrangements.
Very quickly.
The nails sent by the major families to Xifeng Town were all placed in various workshops.
At the beginning, these people felt very happy.
They felt that they had broken into Zhou Peirong's command, so given time, they would definitely be able to peek into Zhou Peirong's secrets.
But after a while, they suddenly realized that they were still far from the inner circle!
However, they did not become suspicious.
In their view, all their encounters were normal situations.
After all, in the workshops of their major families, no newcomers can be taken care of exceptionally, and they can be exposed to all the production processes of the workshop as soon as they come up.
"As long as we have enough patience, we will get enough intelligence sooner or later!"
With this thought in mind, all the thorns of these major families lurked with peace of mind.
Zhou Peirong naturally didn't know about the situation in Xifeng Town.
Now, he is working with Butler Qin to reform the governor's property.
With the experience and knowledge Zhou Peirong has mastered, it is not easy to create a batch of industries.
Don’t mention anything else, let’s just talk about this restaurant!
It only took Zhou Peirong half a month to complete the renovation of all restaurants under the Wantong Chamber of Commerce.
Just like in Zephyr Town!
Zhou Peirong used his own recipes and a new management and business model to replicate the success of Rongquan Restaurant in Shu County.
As for the hot pot restaurant and barbecue bar, they were also copied by Zhou Peirong.
It's only half a month.
The restaurant business in Shu County is almost monopolized by the Wantong Chamber of Commerce.
The "catering business" of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce is booming, which means that some people are unlucky and have the cake taken away by the Wantong Chamber of Commerce.
In Shu County, there are three families that specialize in catering.
These three families are all vassal families of the Meng family.
In order to gain the protection of the Meng family, these three families must pay a sum of money to the Meng family at the end of every month.
No!
It was almost the end of the month, but the business of their three restaurants was bleak, and they were almost unable to make ends meet.
What depresses them the most is that the day to pay tribute is approaching, but they don't have much money in their account.
This situation worried the heads of these three families.
They did not want to touch their old capital and take money from the family treasury, but they did not dare to offend the Meng family.
no way!
After discussion, the heads of the three families unanimously decided to visit the Meng family and ask the Meng family to help them solve their current problems.
After all, they have already contributed a lot of money.
They can't waste this money in vain!
So, the three family heads prepared gifts and came to visit the Meng family together.
After presenting the gift and exchanging pleasantries.
The three family heads then stated their demands in detail.
After listening to the appeals of the three family heads, Meng Tianming, the head of the Meng family, shook his head indifferently.
"After all, you have been living in Shu County for so many years. Can't you think of a solution to such a problem?"
"We can think of a way, so why should we come to you?"
The three family heads suppressed their anger and couldn't help complaining in their hearts, but they did not dare to show any anger on the surface.
Since they are inferior to others, this is all they can do!
"Let me tell you the truth, Master Meng! We have already used all possible methods, but they have no effect. If not for this, we would not have asked you to come here!"
"Yes, Master Meng! You know how difficult it is for our families to live in Shu County. Master Meng, you know. So this time, Master Meng, you must help us!"
"Master Meng, your Meng family plays an important role in Shu County. I think only you, the Meng family, can help us tide over the difficulties!"
The three family heads pinched their noses and complimented and begged Meng Tianming for a while.
Finally, Meng Tianming was satisfied by the three of them.
There was finally a smile on his face.
"Actually, most of the solutions I can think of are similar to yours!"
Meng Tianming took a deep breath, spoke calmly, and made a confident voice.
"If you want to compete with the restaurants of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, there is actually only one way to go, and that is to follow the path that the Wantong Chamber of Commerce has taken, leaving them with nowhere to go!"
"You mean, let us copy the recipes of the restaurants owned by the Wantong Chamber of Commerce?"
"We have already tried this method, but it doesn't work at all! Master Meng, you..."
One of the three family heads frowned and made a questioning sound.
But before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Meng Tianming.
"The reason why you didn't succeed is because your efforts were not enough!"
Meng Tianming's lips curved into an evil smile, and at the same time he raised his hand and pointed two fingers at the three people in front of him.
"There is no absolute loyalty in this world! If you want someone to betray you, it depends on whether the price you pay is enough!"
"As long as you take out enough benefits, won't you still be able to get what you want?"
"That's all I've said. As for how to do it specifically, it depends on you!"
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't talk to you any more. Three of you, please come!"
"this……"
The three family heads looked at each other and finally chose to leave silently together.
As soon as the three of them left, Meng Tianming left the living room and went directly to the secret room in the back house.
Inside the secret room, there was already a mysterious guest waiting for him.
"Master Wei, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting!"
Meng Tianming smiled and hugged the fat man in front of him.
"Let's continue the previous topic!"
"How much price do I have to pay for you to give me Zhou Peirong's recipes?"
