Hongli laughed loudly and said: "Because it was me who stole the roast duck at that time, which caused you to be scolded."
"You?" Wang Erniu looked at Hongli's expensive clothes and said in disbelief: "You? How could you steal a roast duck?"
Seeing his reaction, Hongli wrote again: "Back then, I was living on the street. Fortunately, your half roast duck saved me from starving to death. Even though twenty years have passed, I still remember the grace of saving my life."
"So that's how it is." Wang Erniu suddenly realized, and then said: "I didn't know about this at the time, and I couldn't be considered as being kind to you. You really don't need to worry about it."
"Entance is kindness and must not be repaid." Hongli took the paper from Hong Zhou's hand and handed it to Wang Erniu. When the latter opened it, he saw a bunch of characters he didn't recognize and asked the Wang accountant beside him: "Er Niu"
Uncle, what is written on this?"
Even without looking at it, Wang Zhangfang knew what it was and said in a low voice: "On the road just now, didn't I tell you that they bought Man Tingfang? This is the sales contract and Man Tingfang's land deed.
"While explaining, he also had some doubts in his heart. What was Hongli doing with this? Was it to tell him that Yu Shaofu was no longer the owner here and that Wang Erniu could continue to work here?
Thinking of this, Wang Zhangfang was a little excited. Although Wang Erniu has been trying hard to find something to do over the years, as he grows older, it becomes more and more difficult to make money, especially when it is cloudy and rainy.
My legs would be so painful that I couldn't walk, and I couldn't take care of the fields, so I had to rely on his help to survive.
Wang Erniu did not expect this. He looked at Hongli doubtfully and said: "Master, what are you..."
Hongli pursed his lips and said, "This is my return gift to you. How about it? Are you satisfied?"
"For...for me?" Although Wang Erniu is illiterate and has never seen much of the world, he is very aware of the weight of the two pieces of paper in his hand. As long as he accepts it, he will immediately become the owner of the whole house.
The boss is just like Yu Shaofu before him.
After Hongli nodded, Wang Erniu's head felt dizzy. This benefit was so great that he thought he was dreaming. It wasn't until he pinched his arm hard that he was convinced that this was real. Someone really handed over the restaurant.
Send each other off.
After regaining his senses, Wang Erniu quickly handed back the two pieces of paper worth more than a thousand gold, shook his head and said: "My mother taught me that no reward will be given without merit. I cannot accept such a heavy gift.
Please take it back."
Hongli looked at Wang Erniu and said in surprise: "Do you know the meaning of these two pictures?"
Wang Erniu lowered his head and said: "I know, but I can't accept it. I appreciate your kindness."
After being stunned for a moment, Hongli suddenly laughed. After laughing, he couldn't help but nodded and said: "I didn't expect that even though you were born in poverty, you can be non-greedy. It is really rare. It seems that it is best to leave Mantingfang to you."
decision."
Wang Erniu didn't say anything, he just said persistently: "I really can't ask for such an expensive gift from you. If you really feel that I am kind to you, just let me come back here to work."
Hongli did not accept the contract he handed over. He only said: "What I sent out can never be taken back. You can just take it."
Wang Erniu didn't know what to say, so he just pushed the contract into Hongli's hand and refused to accept it. Just as he was pushing himself, Wang Erniu said, "Master, can you allow me to say a word?"
After getting Hongli's consent, he said: "Yu Shaofu regrets signing the contract to transfer Man Tingfang. If Er Niu accepts it, I'm afraid he will come here to cause trouble, and the government..."
"Don't worry about the government, they will never help him Yu Shaofu." Saying this, Xianyue turned her eyes and said: "Fourth Master, I have thought of a compromise method, which can fulfill your wish and also
Let Wang Erniu accept it."
Regarding Wang Erniu's almost pedantic persistence, Hongli was both appreciative and troubled. After hearing this, he immediately said: "Just tell me and listen."
"Since Wang Erniu resolutely refuses to accept it, then this restaurant still belongs to us. However, we will return to Beijing tomorrow and have no time to take care of it. Why not just entrust Wang Erniu to manage it on our behalf so that the restaurant can operate normally without any trouble.
There's trouble!"
Hongli nodded and said to Wang Erniu: "Is this okay?"
"This..." While Wang Erniu was still hesitating, Xiayue said, "If you refuse again, we will end this restaurant, and everyone will be out of work, including your second uncle."
The king's accountant persuaded in a low voice: "Er Niu, since these guys want to repay their kindness, just agree. You can't bear to see my second uncle and I lose my job at my age and go home to suffer my consequences."
Nagging, right? There are other people, if they knew about this, I'm afraid they would also blame you."
Seeing what he said, Wang Erniu gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay then, I... I just agree."
"Okay!" Hongli clapped his hands and said, "From now on, you will take care of this place for us. As for the contract and land deed, I will leave it with you for the time being."
This time, Wang Erniu did not refuse again. He carefully folded it up and put it in his arms, and said: "Don't worry, boss, I will take care of this place for you and never let you down. Also, with the money I earned, I
How can I give it to you?"
Hongli thought about it and said: "It is inconvenient to transport it to the capital, so I will store it here and wait for me to pick it up next time I come to Zhengzhou."
"Don't worry, boss, I will take good care of you, and you won't miss a penny." Facing Wang Erniu's words, Hongli looked around and said, "This restaurant is a bit old. If you have a chance, I will give you the money."
Take it out and renovate it, so that the business will continue to prosper. In addition, if you have enough money, you can open another one in another place, so that you can make more money. Otherwise, if you only stick to one place, no matter how good the business is, you will not be able to make enough money.
Your money is only limited, remember?"
Wang Erniu nodded vigorously and said: "If you remember this, I will definitely try to make more money for my boss to repay my boss for his kindness."
Hongli nodded, stretched out his hand toward Xianyue, and said with a smile: "Madam, let's go."
When they were about to leave, Wang Erniu suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "By the way, boss, I don't know your name yet."
"Me?" Hongli smiled and said, "Just call me Fourth Master. I remember Man Tingfang. Whenever I come to Zhengzhou, I will definitely come here to find you."
After they had gone very far, Wang Zhangwang withdrew his gaze and said with emotion: "Er Niu, you really met a noble person this time. Although they said they only let you take care of this place, they gave you everything in the contract."
If you do, I will obviously give you the restaurant."
Wang Erniu whispered: "I know, so I will definitely help them take care of Man Tingfang, and wait until they come to Zhengzhou Mansion again."
