Now that there are people following you, there may be people who will be in danger in the next step.
Li Changan cannot gamble and does not dare to gamble.
"I was planning to figure it out slowly before, but now I can't. The base recipe has made too many people jealous." Li Changan walked back and forth in the yard,
"If it leaks out, we won't be able to defend it."
"I still underestimated the determination of these people."
"I thought it was just a roadside stall business. No matter how popular it was, it wouldn't attract so much attention."
"This way we can make money secretly..."
Obscene development is the way to go, but now Li Changan has discovered that he can no longer develop obscenely, otherwise big problems will occur.
"Then what should we do next?" Liu Zhiyin's pretty eyebrows frowned slightly.
Li Changan thought for half a quarter of an hour, clapped his hands,
"Since we can't keep a low profile, we should be as high-profile as possible and put this kind of sneaky business on the table so that these guys can avoid it."
"Don't they want to follow? Give them a few more places to follow."
"Sister Xiaolan, sister Xiaofang, we can set up a few more stalls today, four squares in the southeast, northwest, and Sanyangmen. Anyway, as long as your family members can set up stalls, the price of the base ingredients will remain the same."
"In the future, I will find another way to give you this base material, and try to pick it out for you to avoid danger."
After seeing off Xiaolan Xiaofang, Li Changan put on his backpack and a box of base ingredients and prepared to go out.
"Erlang, do you want me to go with you?" Liu Zhiyin asked worriedly.
Li Changan smiled and waved his hand, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, things will be over soon."
After saying that, he went out and came to Zhangji Winery.
"Boss Zhang."
"Erlang of the Li family?" Zhang Fugui was a little surprised. Hasn't the wine been delivered today? Why did he come back?
"Is there a problem?"
Li Changan raised his hands and saluted, "Boss Zhang, I wonder if we can talk to you in the back room?"
Zhang Fugui was full of doubts, but he still got up from the counter and asked the waiter to watch for a while.
He took Li Changan to the backyard and asked, "What's the matter?"
"In the past few days, I heard that Boss Zhang has been wanting to introduce Malatang in the wine shop, so I came down here." Li Changan didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.
Zhang Fugui was a little confused for a moment, "You also know this news? But why did you come to see me?"
"Wang Fu Ji is my brand." Li Changan said with a dumb smile. This boss Zhang is indeed a wonderful man.
Zhang Fugui was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, and then his eyes widened in disbelief, "You... you... it's you!?"
Li Changan smiled and nodded, "Exactly, Sister Xiaolan and Sister Xiaofang are my sister-in-law's sisters."
Zhang Fugui took a few deep breaths, "How do you prove it?"
"Can I ask Boss Zhang for a bowl of hot water?"
Zhang Fugui shouted loudly to the waiter in the store, and soon a waiter came running over with hot water.
Li Changan took out the base material, cut off a piece, put it in hot water, and then stirred it gently.
"Boss Zhang, try it?"
Zhang Fugui shrugged his nose doubtfully, then took a sip, his expression changed instantly, "It really tastes like that."
He soon thought of something, and his eyes became even more horrified, "With this thing, just hot water can turn into soup base?"
Li Changan nodded calmly, "I believe in Boss Zhang's character, whether it is collecting wine or his sincerity to Miss Xiaolan and Xiaofang these days."
"So I am willing to cooperate with Boss Zhang."
When he said this, Li Changan looked calm on the surface, but in fact his heart was beating violently.
Zhang Fugui looked at Li Changan with mixed meanings in his eyes.
The air seemed to be stagnant. After a long time, Zhang Fugui laughed loudly and said, "Interesting, Li Jia Erlang, are you betting on my character? Aren't you afraid that I will forcefully occupy your information?"
"It's indeed a gamble." Li Changan nodded calmly, "But if there is no formula for the base material, it is only enough for one pot, so it doesn't make much sense."
Zhang Fugui took a deep look at Li Changan and said, "You are quite honest. If you told lies just now, I would not do this business."
Li Changan clasped his fists and said, "Boss Zhang treats me with sincerity, so naturally I will reciprocate him."
"Go have a drink in front and have a good chat about how to do this business." Zhang Fugui walked to the front hall.
The two sat at the table in the corner. Zhang Fugui brought a bottle of wine and asked the waiter to bring two plates of side dishes.
Before the two of them could sit down, a figure walked over.
Li Changan glanced out of the corner of his eye and hurriedly saluted, "I've met Gu Jiaoyu."
Zhang Fugui said calmly, "What are you doing here at this time?"
"What are you...?" Gu Jiao asked.
Zhang Fugui asked the two of them to sit down and explained the situation.
Gu Jiaoyu immediately looked at Li Changan with a complicated look on his face, "Chang'an, let me call you that."
"Originally, I was very happy that Boss Zhang could bring this Malatang to the wine shop. I even suggested that he do it."
"But why are you doing this business?"
"Your top priority now is to seize the time to review your books and prepare for next year's county examination, instead of selling wine and making spicy hotpot at the same time. This wastes too much time."
There was mostly regret in his tone.
Li Changan understood what Gu Jiaoyu meant, and he immediately saluted and said, "Thank you Gu Jiaoyu for your advice. It's just that I am in urgent need of silver at home, so I really have no choice but to do it."
Gu Jiaoyu said, "I heard from Boss Zhang that if you sell wine at his place every day, you can get one tael of silver, which should be enough for a normal life."
Li Changan sighed softly, briefly explained the situation at home, and finally said, "The first goal of this junior is to earn enough money, and then prepare for the county examination."
Gu Jiaoyu and Boss Zhang looked at each other, and then said, "No wonder, I was just worried that you would give up the good and the bad. I didn't expect that there was such a reason."
"How much money do you still have? I have some here. Although it's not much, it can solve the urgent need."
Li Changan said sincerely, "Thank you Gu Jiaoyu. I have almost saved enough money now. When the Malatang business is done again, I can redeem my little sister."
Gu Jiaoyu gently stroked his beard and said, "Forget it, if you have any difficulties, you can go to the county school and see me. Don't delay your business. With your talent, you should be sure to pass the county exam."
"You discuss business first and leave me alone."
As he spoke, he poured himself a drink and said no more.
Only then did Zhang Fugui intervene, "The method I discussed with the two little girls, if you think it's okay, we can do this business tomorrow."
Zhang Fugui got straight to the point without any twists and turns. He picked up a piece of pork head and put it in his mouth.
"I wonder how much Malatang Boss Zhang needs in a day?" Li Changan asked.
"You can deliver the quantity for one stall first, and then we'll see what happens." Zhang Fugui said.
"A stall? Are you sure?" Gu Jiaoyu interrupted.
Zhang Fugui glanced angrily, "I mean, look at the situation. If business gets better, we'll need more."
"I think we need at least two stalls..." Gu Jiaoyu shrugged and took a sip of wine.
Li Changan felt a warm feeling in his heart. This Gu Jiaoyu really had a love for talents and kept lining up his business.
"Boss Zhang, I have a new way of cooperation. Why don't you give it a try?"
Zhang Fugui looked at Li Changan and said, "Let's talk about it, but I have to say it in advance. Eighty-two split is already the limit."
Li Changan smiled and said, "Boss Zhang misunderstood. Boss Zhang must have just seen it. The key to Malatang lies in that box of base ingredients. I can send a box to Boss Zhang every day, but I have a condition."
"What conditions?" Zhang Fugui and Gu Jiaoyu were both extremely surprised. How could anyone give money away?
The money earned from this spicy hotpot is obvious to all and should not be underestimated.
A street stall can at least earn one or two yuan, and if it is a wine shop, it can at least make several times more.
It's okay to give it away for one day, but there are still many days to come. If you give it away in one year, wouldn't it be hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver?
What conditions make it so valuable?
Li Changan said solemnly, "In the future, the base materials that Sisters Xiaolan and Xiaofang need will be obtained from Boss Zhang."
"When I deliver the wine every morning, I will also deliver the base ingredients needed for that day. How about that?"
Zhang Fugui thought for a while and quickly figured out the key. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You are putting my small wine shop on the fire rack."
"You want me to be your shield?"
Li Changan smiled bitterly and said, "I can't hide anything from Boss Zhang. I sell Malatang, so I can't stop others from stealing it, but I really can't guarantee that there will be jealous people..."
Zhang Fugui and Gu Jiaoyu understood, "Someone must have had dirty thoughts."
"Let's see, I can't take advantage of you in vain." Boss Zhang said, "These things are indeed dangerous for you, but if it were a wine shop like mine, they wouldn't dare to have such twisted thoughts."
"Two boxes of Malatang base and one tael of silver, the matter is settled."
Gu Jiaoyu also nodded slightly.
The stone on Li Changan's head finally fell, and a smile finally appeared on his face, "Thank you, Boss Zhang, and thank you Gu Jiaoyu."
After the business chat was over, the three of them sat together and chatted for a while. Li Changan left a box of base materials in his backpack and then stood up to leave.
Not long after leaving Zhang Ji Winery, Li Changan heard the rapid sound of horse hooves, and the rumble came from a distance.
The ground was shaking, and then a feeling of heart palpitations came to my heart.
It was as if someone had grasped my heart, and even my breathing became rapid.
Li Changan looked in horror at the place where the sound of horse hooves came from, and saw a dozen tall horses galloping past the street.
Three big flags fluttered in the wind, making a clattering sound.
On the big flag, the huge word "安" is breathtaking!
