The three of them landed at about four o'clock in the afternoon. Since they didn't know how long they would stay in Jincheng City, they booked three viewing rooms in a mid-range hotel.
Jincheng is a coastal city. Open the window and the salty sea breeze blows in, blowing away Li Longtu's broken hair on his forehead.
The reason why he chose Jincheng City in Beishui Province was because of its geographical location!
The coastline in the north direction of eastern China is relatively winding, and Jincheng City and Lianzhou City face each other across the sea, which greatly reduces transportation costs!
Sea transportation is a straight-line route, but if you take land transportation, it will take a long time on railways and roads.
Medicinal materials are not like people. Although some medicinal materials are not affected by time, some will lose their efficacy once they are stored for a long time even if they do not deteriorate.
The market in Jincheng City has not been opened, so it is impossible to build plantations nearby.
The winery may let its partners act as their own agents, but the plantation is very difficult, because the main planting technology and extraction technology are in Li Longtu's own hands, and there is no way to easily transfer them to others.
The situation here is different from that in Zhoujia Village. There are people in the village that I can trust, but I don’t know anyone in Jincheng City, so I really don’t dare to hand over my technology rashly.
A few people took a rest in the hotel. At around six o'clock in the evening, Lu Xinyi received a call from a friend and made an appointment to meet at a private chef called "Old Alley Tavern".
Li Longtu and his party tidied up a little, got dressed, went downstairs, took a taxi and headed straight to their destination.
As soon as I got off the bus at the "tavern", I heard shouting next to me.
I saw a well-dressed man standing beside his BMW, frowning at an old lady:
"Old guy, go ahead, you're occupying my parking space!"
"This, isn't this location a public property..."
The old lady had a stooped figure and her clothes were patched. At this moment, when the young man shouted, she shrank her neck, making her figure look even weaker.
Her old electric tricycle was filled with vegetables, and it looked like it was for takeout.
"So what if it's a public one? I often come here to eat and park here every time. Ask who around here doesn't know that this parking space belongs to me?"
The man came closer, raised his hand and patted it twice and three times, then grabbed the vegetables with disgust and said.
"But the public one means that anyone can park. Young man, there is still a spot nearby. You see, it's not convenient for me with my old arms and legs. It's like waiting until I order to sell my food. You can make it easier for me...
…”
The old lady locked her neck and squeezed out a smile on her face that was full of ravages of time.
"Is it convenient for you? Oh, if I am kicked out by this old lady, how will my name, Mr. Zhu from Jincheng, be spread out in the future?"
With that said, the man pushed the electric car away.
The old lady quickly held onto the handlebar, her eyes pleading.
She came to this position yesterday, and she didn't see Mr. Zhu from Jincheng...
"You're still selling these shabby vegetables. How old are you now? Who still buys what you grow at home? Who knows if you are clean or not."
Mr. Zhu was very impatient. He raised his hand and started to exert force. The electric car that had not fully braked was about to be pushed away.
"roll!"
Not wanting to waste any more time, Mr. Zhu directly pressed his hands on the car and exerted force.
The old lady was not as strong as he was, and she almost fell down while being carried by the electric tricycle.
Fortunately, she finally leaned on a solid body.
"Young man, thank you..."
The old lady took a look at Wang Ergou, who was not tall but had a frightening expression, and stood up carefully to help the car again.
Li Longtu stepped forward, handed out two cigarettes, and said to Mr. Zhu:
"Hey, Mr. Zhu, your BMW is pretty good!"
Young Master Zhu raised his eyes and looked at Li Longtu, then looked at the Ninth Five-Year Plan cigarette case in his hand, and this time he said calmly:
"That's right, regardless of my status, can an ordinary car be worthy of me?"
"That's natural."
Li Longtu nodded, and seeing the other person taking the cigarette, he just handed over the lighter and asked him to light it himself.
This made Mr. Zhu stunned. He handed over the cigarette but didn't light it? Does this guy know how to flatter?
He was a little annoyed. He didn't know you in the first place. You came over to talk to me yourself and why didn't you light a cigarette for me?
Li Longtu smiled, taking everything in his eyes, and didn't care much. He just said tactfully:
"Master Zhu, you are such a big shot, why would you want to meet an old lady selling vegetables, right? Just give her the parking space, and you can still gain a good reputation of being tolerant to others."
In fact, what Li Longtu said was quite accurate. It not only prevented him from worrying about this parking space, but also protected his face, which was the best of both worlds.
But Mr. Zhu raised his eyebrows, threw away the cigarette, stamped it out with the sole of his shoe, and crushed it twice. Then he looked at Li Longtu in an extremely arrogant tone and said:
"Which one of you is the onion and which one is the garlic? Ask me to do something? I can give up this parking space if I want it. It doesn't matter whoever I don't want to use it."
Lu Xinyi's eyes were dull and he looked at him as if he were a fool.
Li Longtu sighed, put the Nine-Five Master away, took out his Changbai Mountain and held it in his mouth, then turned around, "Don't blame me for not reminding you."
"Wow, what do you mean by that? Are you threatening me? I...well!"
Young Master Zhu originally looked shocked, thinking that someone wanted to provoke him and highlight his identity as the so-called "Young Master Zhu of Jincheng". Unexpectedly, his vision went dark and a big slap hit his face.
Wang Ergou covered his face with his big hands, grabbed his head and dragged him to the front of the BMW, then threw him on the front hood.
Mr. Zhu blinked at the top, not wanting to understand what had caught him.
"Why do you, a second-generation rich man, compete with an old lady? How glorious is that?"
Wang Ergou hated it when his second generation ancestor bullied the weak. After getting Li Longtu's nod, he took action directly.
"Who are you? Oh, you are all together, right?"
Zhu Shao pointed at Li Longtu and Lu Xinyi who were standing on the roadside, "You dare to attack me? OK, OK, come on, you can beat me as you like! If you don't beat me to death, don't leave today!"
"But remember, if you don't kill me, I will kill you all in the future!"
As he spoke, he showed a very cruel expression.
Wang Ergou couldn't help but touch his nose. Is this man mentally ill?
Are you going to start beating and killing for something as big as shit?
"Come on, come on!"
Young Master Zhu pointed at himself and said provocatively.
"you sure?"
Wang Ergou asked.
"Hahaha, what can you do to me with your courage? Come! I'll let you hit me! I'd like to see if you dare! Let me tell you, I am Young Master Zhu from the Fourth Young Master in Jincheng! If you dare...
"
boom!
Wang Ergou really disliked him for being noisy, so he punched him and knocked him unconscious on the spot. He fell on the front hood and rolled his eyes.
Li Longtu looked at the farce, shook his head, turned to look at the vegetables in the old lady's car, and then said to her:
"Old lady, how do you sell this dish?"
"Ah? Oh, the price is different. Anyway, it must be cheaper than the ones in the market."
Li Longtu nodded, took out his mobile phone and scanned the payment QR code on the railing, "I guess your car costs more than a thousand?"
"There are not that many, only five or six hundred."
The old lady said with her hands folded.
"Okay, I'll transfer one thousand to you. After that, you can go home today. Leave a phone number and I'll go to your place to ask for food. You shouldn't come here to sell food in the future."
As he spoke, Li Longtu transferred the two thousand yuan, then turned around and left with Lu Xinyi.
