The pot of water worth two pennies was sitting in a daze for almost an hour, and the child became numb to refilling the water, and couldn't help asking: "Brother, were you conceived by a buffalo in your previous life?"

Gou Fugui squinted at him complainingly, and patted the table, "What's the matter, the young master is down and out now, and can't afford to enter a big restaurant, so come to your tea shed to drink a cup of tea, but also to be looked down upon?"

Seeing that Gou Fugui's temper is not easy to be provoked, the second child repeatedly accused him: "Where is the guest officer, the profit of the small shop is small, and I would like to thank the guest officer for the two cups of tea to support him."

Gou Fugui muttered: "It's pretty much the same, unlike those restaurants next door, where dogs look down on people."

After saying this, Gou Fugui's face became a little ugly.

Because among the people who look down on people with a dog's eyes, he used to be one of them.

Now it can be regarded as realizing the difficulty of life of the people at the bottom.

Xiaoer's consolation said: "The guest officer looks like the fate of the rich and powerful. In the future, if you have money, you will definitely be able to trample them under your feet. Before you step on the threshold, the shopkeeper will have to come out to greet you in person."

"Well said, it hits the young master's heart, I deserve a reward!"

Hearing this, Xiao Er immediately smiled brightly, seeing Gou Fugui open the money bag to search, and finally took out two copper coins and put them in Xiao Er's hand.

The second child was not too little, holding the money and thanking Gou Fugui again and again: "Thank you, guest officer, for the reward!"

Gou Fugui patted Xiaoer's face, feeling a little dazed like he was drunk with tea: "When the young master becomes prosperous in the future, I will definitely promote you to be the young master's shopkeeper!"

"The little one will thank the young master first!"

It was rare for Gou Fugui to regain some of his glory as a young master in front of this mistress. He waved away the mistress, got up staggeringly, and leaned against the door to look at the Fengyuan Restaurant, which had a lot of customers.

It is said that this restaurant is one of the best signs in Liangcheng, and the daily customer flow is also very impressive. If this business can be negotiated, it will save the energy of attracting other individual customers.

Looking at the noble ladies and gentlemen who greeted them at the door, Gou Fugui remembered the words of Xiao Er just now in his mind.

"In the future, if you have money and have not stepped into the threshold, the shopkeeper will have to greet you in person."

"That's right!" Gou Fugui was enlightened, "Why didn't I think of such a way!"

Gou Fugui touched the ten taels of silver on his waist, and suddenly had an idea.

This money was given by Chang Ning to settle the 1 yuan brick payment for the brick kiln on the way back. Gou Fugui stood outside the cloth shop and hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and stepped in.

As the saying goes, you can't bear to let your child be caught by a wolf.

When he negotiates a few big deals, these expenses are called "upfront investment".

But with the effort of a stick of incense, Gou Fugui, who was originally dressed in simple clothes, turned into a handsome young master.

He was dressed in a navy blue robe with embroidered brocade patterns and a golden belt that was artificially tied and dyed. He also held a bone fan with a jade pendant in his hand.

If you don't look carefully, how can you tell that his jade pendant is just a high imitation product.

But Gou Fugui's image of a playboy for many years came at his fingertips, he just stood there with a different skin, showing the appearance of an upstart with a lot of money.

Gou Fugui tugged at his sleeves, gritted his teeth and complained: "The embroiderers in small places just can't do it. This pattern is embroidered. The stitches are too thick."

The shopkeeper stood aside and twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that this guy was no more than a country bumpkin, and he was actually putting on a show.

However, based on the idea that the guest is the Jade Emperor, he didn't dare to offend him face to face, but followed his words to compliment him: "Young Master said, I will definitely let Xiu Niang practice more in the future."

"Okay, son, let's go now."

The shopkeeper sent Gou Fugui to the door: "Sir, go slowly!"

Gou Fugui opened the folding fan to fan the wind, and swaggered towards Fengyuan Restaurant.

As the waiter said, Gou Fugui was greeted respectfully by a waiter as soon as he stood at the door of the store.

Even the shopkeeper, who was buried in the accounts at the counter, looked up at him, immediately raised a bright smile, and greeted him politely: "Welcome, welcome, sir, do you have lunch or not?"

Gou Fugui's face was calm, and he had already scolded the shopkeeper who changed his face like a book in his heart.

"Have a nice lunch with a good jug of wine."

Gou Fugui was still carrying a package of agricultural products on his shoulders, and the waiter hurriedly picked it up, "The guest officer sits upstairs or downstairs?"

Gou Fugui said: "I'm too lazy to go upstairs, let's go downstairs!"

"okay!"

The waiter found a nearby seat downstairs, and carefully placed the burden on his shoulders on the table.

Then he served Gou Fugui a jug of good wine and peanuts, pointed to the brand of food on the side and asked, "What would you like to eat?"

Gou Fugui looked around and ordered two small dishes seemingly at random. The waiter raised his voice and shouted towards the kitchen. After passing the name of the dishes, he retreated to the door to wait for the guests.

Gou Fugui only ordered stewed dishes, and he won't be able to serve them for a while. He sat at the dining table and waited a little bored. He waved to the shopkeeper who was busy with the calculation: "Shopkeeper, bring me a bowl of white sugar!"

"Okay, wait a minute."

The shopkeeper was about to order the waiter to get it, when another customer came in at this moment, and the waiter led them up to the second floor.

There was no meal yet, and the rest of the odd jobs were helping with preparations in the back kitchen. The shopkeeper had no choice but to put aside his calculations, and went to the back kitchen to bring out a bowl of sugar himself.

"Guest officer, the sugar you want."

The shopkeeper put down the bowl and was about to leave when Gou Fugui opened the bag in front of him.

When he just entered the door, he saw this baggage, and thought it contained some valuables.

When Gou Fugui opened it, he saw that there were only a few vegetables in it, and he was a little disappointed.

But just two steps away, Gou Fugui stopped him, "Shopkeeper, do you have time to help taste the taste?"

"Taste?"

The shopkeeper looked at the bright red tomato in Gou Fugui's hand, as if he was holding a ruby, and couldn't help but click his tongue, "Where did you buy this tomato, it looks really pretty."

Looking at the package again, I realized that the other vegetables in the package were more colorful and dazzling, just like a work of art.

The shopkeeper got a little interested, sat down on the bench next to Gou Fugui, and asked enthusiastically, "How can I help you taste it, guest officer?"

Gou Fugui took out a dagger and cut the tomato in two, then handed half to him.

"Try for me, is this tomato sweeter or this sugar sweeter?"

The sliced ​​tomato was full of juice, the flesh was crystal clear, and the water was full of vitality. The shopkeeper held it in his hand, and he couldn't bear to say it.

Gou Fugui urged: "Try the shopkeeper!"

"it is good."

The shopkeeper took a bite, and the juice squeezed out his hands. It was sweet with a hint of sourness, and the mouth was full of fresh tomato flavor.

"Sweet, so sweet!"

The shopkeeper took a sip, surprise in his eyes, "Brother, where did you buy these tomatoes?"
