The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 132 It’s useless to give you face.
  early morning.

Guo Dalu led a mule with a sad look on his face. The mule was dragging a cart full of vegetables.

He is responsible for purchasing. He has to go to the market every morning and haul back a cart of fresh vegetables to the kitchen, and then does some odd jobs such as washing dishes and serving dishes.

But now there are five more boxes in the vegetable pile.

He opened the box but immediately closed it.

He didn't understand why someone would hide five boxes of gold and silver jewelry in someone else's cart.

The wheels creaked on the street, and Guo Dalu always felt that the eyes of passers-by were all on him.

Fortunately, Shui Yunjian arrived quickly. He also saw Yan Qi and Lin Taiping who were busy opening the door, and quickly hinted that they would come to help.

Yan Qi saw Guo Dalu's hesitation and rushed out, and soon saw the box that shouldn't be on the cart.

"What is this?"

Guo Dalu scratched his head: "I saw a woman on the road with two children beside her."

Yan Qi glared: "So you can't walk when you see a woman?"

Guo Dalu: "No, I just gave her all the money I had and took her and the child to eat steamed buns."

Turning to look at the cart, Guo Dalu became distressed: "When I came back, I found five more boxes in the vegetable pile."

Lin Taiping's face turned blue: "You gave all your monthly money to others again. Doesn't this mean we have to drink less this month?"

Li Chaofeng only allowed them to gamble, but did not restrict them from drinking and eating meat.

Four drunkards get together. Even if they don't gamble, they spend money like water and have very little money on them.

At the beginning of the month, they would drink a lot of wine and eat roast duck on the second floor of Shuiyunjian.

By the middle of the month, they can only eat glutinous rice wine, look at the plum blossoms to quench their thirst, and lament where all the money has gone.

Guo Dalu didn't need to sigh. Generally speaking, his money would always be given away, even to buy wine.

Saving money was non-existent, so Li Chaofeng opened a restaurant where he could eat and drink casually, otherwise they would starve before the end of the month.

Guo Dalu laughed. He had no money, but Wang Dong and the others had not spent all their monthly money, so he could still drink.

Guo Dalu nodded, looked at Shui Yunjian with some fear, and asked.

"is the boss around?"

Yan Qi glared: "No, there seems to be something wrong with the wine shop's koji. The boss is going to find out what's wrong."

Looking at the big box and the pedestrians coming and going on the street, Yan Qi also made a suggestion to Guo Dalu.

"Let's move this box into the backyard first, and then think about what to do with it when the boss comes back."

Guo Dalu nodded. He had indeed never encountered such a thing, but he had never thought about escaping alone with a box.

He has already seen the contents of the box. It is full of countless jewelry, which are quite valuable.

Guo Dalu led his mule around the backyard. Wang Dong, who was busy in the kitchen, also heard the noise and quickly followed.

When the box was completely opened, Yan Qi and the others were all shocked. The five boxes were filled with all kinds of gold and silver jewelry.

Yan Qi remembered something: "It seems that a diner said yesterday that Feng Qiwu has reappeared in the world. Could it be that the things in this box are..."

Wang Dong looked at Guo Dalu's naive eyes and shook his head repeatedly: "It seems that you have caused a big trouble for the boss."

Lin Taiping didn't care much and just smiled.

"It doesn't matter. As long as the boss is still there, there won't be many problems in the world that he can't solve."

After buckling up the boxes and unloading the boxes from the cart, the four of them piled them casually in the backyard.

The four of them didn't even chat much and started preparing for business.

After Wang Dong took over the job of cook, Li Chaofeng, the hands-off shopkeeper, didn't pay much attention to Shui Yunjian's business.

He would visit various workshops and meet landowners from various places.

Li Chaofeng's supply channels in the northwest have been stable, but the suppliers in the southeast are not familiar enough.

So he started getting busy.

Without Li Chaofeng, Shuiyunjian has almost become Wang Dong's territory.

No one is restrained, but he is free.

There is a lot of work in the restaurant, and they don't get much, but they feel very at ease.

Because it is the result of labor.

Yan Qi and the others have also become busy. Shuiyunjian has food and wine from all over the world. After a few months, they have become somewhat famous.

In the evening, when Yan Qi was about to close the door, two men from the public gate burst into Shui Yunjian, followed by a man in black.

Yan Qi quickly recognized the two Gongmen.

The thin one is the head catcher in Qinghe County. He has a stick, also called a stick.

The one covered in glittering gold is the chief arrester of the nine provinces, the Golden Lion.

Because of its keen sense of smell, it is often called Golden Retriever Poodle.

The man in black is carrying a four-foot-seven-inch long sword, which is the characteristic of Nangong Chou, the "haunting soul under the sword".

But Yan Qi knew very well that this person was not Nangong Chou, because she was Nangong Chou's daughter.

When recognizing people in the arena, most of them look at their characteristics.

Therefore, it is very easy to pretend to be a famous Jianghu person.

The three of them walked into the clean water and clouds. They nodded with a stick, looked at Guo Dalu, and asked with a gloomy face. “You guys hauled a load of vegetables on your cart today?”

Guo Dalu was shocked and Yan Qi was stunned, but he quickly understood what the two people meant and replied directly without even coming out of the counter.

“Can’t the trolley haul vegetables?”

Stick: "Of course the cart can haul vegetables, but we think there's something in the vegetables."

Guo Dalu's heart trembled because the boss hadn't come back yet, but Yan Qi had already answered with a smile.

"Of course there are still vegetables in the vegetables, how can there be other things?"

Jiagun smiled: "No, a cart with only vegetables will not leave such heavy marks."

Wang Dong walked out of the kitchen, wiped his hands with a cotton towel, and replied.

"No matter how heavy the traces are, they are still just vegetables."

Jiagun looked at Wang Dong's indifferent eyes, then looked at the unconvinced expressions in the eyes of the other three people, and smiled.

"You are very brave."

Is Wang Dong brave?

Big.

Because he is the King of Soaring Eagles, the last business trip between the five of them was to steal the Shaolin secret book.

But now Wang Dong has stopped, and he doesn't like to use violence to solve problems, let alone being so confident when facing the public.

But this is Shuiyunjian Restaurant.

A place where not only thieves dare not steal, but even the government dare not come to collect taxes.

Wang Dong and the other four have never investigated the details of their boss, but they are not stupid and have long seen that Li Chaofeng has an extraordinary background.

That is to say, Jiagun and Jinshi came from other places, so they didn't know the details of Shuiyunjian.

Jia Guang was about to show off his power, but Jin Shi interrupted with a smile: "Where's the boss?"

Guo Dalu replied: "The boss went out and didn't come back."

Jin Shi smiled and asked: "How old is the boss?"

Guo Dalu replied: "Twenty."

Jin Shi raised his head and looked at the third floor of the restaurant. He couldn't look at Wang Dong, who was no more than thirty, but he smiled.

"I don't believe that the boss of such a big restaurant is only twenty."

Yan Qi interjected: "Believe it or not, our boss is only twenty years old."

"Bang!" With a sound, the water and fire stick with a stick fell on the table, causing everyone to look over.

"When does he come back!"

The martial arts skills of clamping sticks are not very high. Not to mention Wang Dong or Lin Taiping, even Guo Dalu and Yan Qi can easily deal with them.

But they were wearing official robes, so they didn't dare to move.

Wang Dong wiped his hands with a cotton towel, raised his eyes slightly, and replied.

"I don't know, he's the boss and we're guys."

"Guys just need to maintain their business and don't need to know when the boss will come back."

Jin Shi sat down, poured out three bowls of tea, nodded, and smiled gently at the stick.

"We can wait!"

Lin Taiping looked at the footprints on the ground with disgust. Because he was about to close the door, he had already mopped the floor.

No matter how generous the customers are before closing time, they are still not well received.

And the three people in front of them are not even customers.

All seven people fell silent. Soon, there were footsteps at the door, and a man pushed the door open and entered.

He is very tall and strong. He is dressed in blue clothes, his hair is half spread, and he has a white jade gourd on his waist.

Li Chaofeng came back on horseback. He saw that the restaurant that should have been closed long ago was still lit with many oil lamps, and knew that the guests had not left.

When he walked in, he saw three people whom he had some impression of.

Mei Rujia squinted his eyes. He recognized Li Chaofeng's features, but he was not convinced.

He can pretend to be Nangong Chou, and others can naturally pretend to be Young Master Yuanlong.

But someone recognized Li Chaofeng, the chief arrester of the nine provinces, Golden Lion.

The records of the six doors not only record the characteristics, but also include portraits of the characters.

Li Chaofeng took out the white jade gourd, took a sip of wine, and then spoke lightly, which shocked Wang Dong and the others.

"roll."

Hearing the soft word "go", Jiagang was very angry. The man in black narrowed his eyes slightly and put his hand on the sword.

But the golden lion has no temper and just gives up.

"Ok!"

The current golden lion really looks like a poodle.
