When Du Qi saw Cheng Chumo's appearance, he was also stunned.
Where did this come from?
Cheng Chumo was fine, but he was beaten up by Cheng Yaojin until he was limping and had a bloody nose and a swollen face.
Du Qi said, "Cheng Xiong, did you really get beaten on the butt?"
"You don't believe me?"
Cheng Chumo suddenly became agitated and said, "Erlang, you don't know. Last night, my father was extremely cruel. He held a long stick as thick as a goose egg and hit me on the butt ten times. This is simply torture. As for my face and eyes, when I was dodging, my father caught up with me and hit me with a few punches. I became like this. "
Du Qi blinked and said, "Your father shouldn't be so cruel. I remember when I saw Uncle Cheng, he was also gentle and amiable, like an elder. "
"Elder?"
Cheng Chumo's eyes turned red and he said, "Last night, after I was beaten ten times, I asked my father if I was his biological son and why he treated me like this. Then, my father threw the wooden stick with both hands and hit me with his fists. Fortunately, I ran fast and immediately dodged. But even so, I was beaten to this appearance. My face and eyes were beaten at that time. "
After a pause, Cheng Chumo said, "After my father was done, he caught you and praised you, saying you were obedient, said you were smart, said you could earn money, said you were good, said I was trash. Sigh, Erlang, you've caused me so much trouble. "
Du Qi couldn't help but laugh.
Cheng Yaojin was really amazing.
Of course, when he thought of his father's stick education, he secretly rejoiced that Du Ruhui didn't care about him anymore. But Du Ruhui's education method seemed to have spread, so that some people began to imitate it.
Cheng Chumo became a test subject.
Cheng Chumo was also a thick-skinned person with an honest temperament. He said bitterly, "Erlang, you still have the nerve to laugh. All of this is because of you. Who told you to cause such a huge commotion at the Duke of Qin's banquet? He chased me out early in the morning and told me to complete two tasks. If I couldn't complete them, I could go back, but if I went back, I would be beaten. "
Du Qi asked, "What is it?"
Cheng Chumo said, "The first thing is that the dishes at the banquet last night were too delicious. So much so that my father was reluctant to part with it and insisted on eating it again. That's why my father said that he didn't dare to ask you to tell him how to make all the dishes in our family. You have to tell him how to make Red Braised Pork. My father is craving for it. "
After a pause, Cheng Chumo continued: "The second thing is that my father heard that you want to open a restaurant. Our Cheng family will still follow the rules of the previous teahouse and invest in the restaurant. My father said that if we can't get 20% of the shares, our Cheng family will pay 10,000 strings of cash and get 20% of the shares. "
"Hiss!"
Yuchi Baolin couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Ten thousand strings of cash was not a small sum.
One must know that he had only taken out one thousand strings of cash, but Cheng Chumo had just opened his mouth and offered 10,000 strings of cash. This was simply too rich and overbearing. He didn't put money in his eyes at all.
Du Qi's eyes darted around as he pondered.
20% of the shares and 10,000 strings of cash.
This was indeed a large sum, and the Cheng family was willing to part with it. But for Du Qi, money wasn't something he cared about. At this point, Du Qi didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and he had plenty of money.
Cheng Chumo saw that Du Qi didn't speak, and he was familiar with Du Qi. He immediately put on a pitiful expression and said, "Erlang, we're good brothers. You can't just ignore my life and death. This time, if I can't get it done, I'll be beaten again when I go back. Can you bear to see your brother in trouble? "
Du Qi raised his hand and said, "Stop!"
Cheng Chumo immediately stopped talking, and a smile appeared on his face, revealing a silly expression.
Du Qi said, "Don't act like a simple and honest person. I know your temperament. It's impossible for the Cheng family to ask for 10,000 strings of cash for 20% of the shares. It's not a matter of money. I can only give you 10% of the shares. "
Cheng Chumo heard this and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He was now rich and overbearing.
With the tea shop, the Cheng family would have a steady stream of income in the future. What's more, the Cheng family had countless businesses. They were big and could afford to pay.
What Cheng Chumo cared about was whether he could get it done.
Du Qi's agreement was enough.
Cheng Chumo flicked his sleeves and said, "Erlang, I don't know how to talk. Anyway, if you say 10% of the shares, then 10% of the shares. This 10,000 strings of cash is the Cheng family's investment. "
"Hiss!"
Yuchi Baolin sucked in another breath.
10,000 strings of cash for 10% of the shares.
This was too generous and not treating money as money.
If it were Yuchi Baolin, he would never agree. Because 10,000 strings of cash was an extremely terrifying sum for the Yuchi family. It was impossible for the Yuchi family to use it so extravagantly.
Du Qi shook his head and said, "Yuchi Baolin just gave me 1,000 strings of cash for 10% of the shares. I've already promised her, so it's the same for your Cheng family. I'll only take 1,000 strings of cash. You can take the rest back. "
After Cheng Chumo heard this, the naive expression on his face was replaced with a solemn expression. He said solemnly, "Erlang, a restaurant is not a tea shop. The investment in a restaurant is bound to be huge. Especially this time, we have to buy a house and a shop. It will cost a lot of money. "
"Moreover, with you here, it's fine even if you give me more money. 10,000 strings of cash is 10,000 strings of cash. I'm willing to take 10% of the shares. Moreover, I'm willing to go back and get beaten up. "
"I believe my father will agree."
"The last time I took the money back, he was so happy he couldn't find north. He kept praising me."
After a pause, Cheng Chumo suddenly said, "My father is really something. He even praised me before. I didn't expect him to change in the blink of an eye. He's really a swindler, a big swindler. He's not reliable at all. "
Du Qi chuckled.
This father and son pair were both buffoons, but they were also shrewd people.
Du Qi said, "I appreciate Brother Cheng's good intentions. But rules are rules and cannot be changed. If you change the rules at will, others may not agree when the time comes. Moreover, even 10% of 1,000 strings of cash is enough. Buying a restaurant for a few thousand strings of cash is also an extremely easy matter. "
Cheng Chumo paused for a moment and said, "Fine, whatever you say. In short, if you want money, I'll give it. Erlang, it's enough that you're willing to take us in. "
At this point, he laughed loudly and patted his stomach. "Erlang, I didn't eat this morning. I know your attendant Liu Jian is very skilled. Hurry up and get him to cook a few dishes. I'm starving. If I continue being hungry, I'll lose all my meat. "
Right now, Liu Jian was cooking.
He had been practicing.
At the side, there were also many dishes that were left untouched.
When Du Qi heard this, he asked Liu Jian to stop for a moment. First, he had Liu Jian fetch a bowl of meat porridge from the kitchen. Then, he placed it on the table in the courtyard. "Brother Cheng, Brother Yuchi, did Liu Jian make the dishes here? Here's some meat porridge. Make do with it."
"Okay!"
Cheng Chumo did not hesitate.
The temperature of the meat porridge was just right. He scooped a bowl and ate it in big mouthfuls.
He looked no different from a reincarnated hungry ghost.
After Yuchi Baolin took a bite, she raised her eyebrows and joined in. She could not help but pick up her chopsticks quickly. He had heard about the banquet at King Qin's residence last night, but Yuchi Baolin was not picky about food, so he did not think much of it.
Now that he had eaten it, he felt that it was indeed worthy of its reputation.
Delicious!
Too delicious?
