Chapter 82: The West Market Meets Local Tyrants

When it was time to go home and rest, Li Siye went to the West Market to buy some biscuits and snacks and returned to his home in Xuanyangfang.

Li Meier was riding a bamboo horse in the yard. When she saw her brother returning, she ran over like a swallow and snatched the snacks from his hand.

He is already a nine-year-old girl, but has not received enlightenment education. This is the sin of his elder brother. He must spend money to hire a private school teacher for him. As the old saying goes, no matter how poor you are, you can't do it. Poor education, no matter how hard it is, cannot hurt the children.

He should find a knowledgeable person to teach him, and not let those half-full scholars mislead his students. He suddenly remembered Gao Shi from the West Market Food Association. He was a great poet, and he was the only one.

Early the next morning, Li Siye brought the necessary repairs to become a disciple and went to the Western Market again.

The West Market was not open to the public in the morning, so the flow of people was smaller. He went straight to the restaurant street where he originally rented the shop.

Li Ji's green onion pancake shop still hangs his old banners. Gao Shi, wrapped in a futou and wearing an old robe, is holding a scroll in one hand and turning the pancakes on a spatula with a wooden shovel in his other hand. Next to him is Sha Li. Shouting loudly: "Scallion pancakes, authentic Li Ji chopped green onion pancakes, even the sage praised them."

Li Siye walked up to him, and the boy didn't even raise his head and said, "Mr. Lang, do you want to buy some cake? This cake is praised by the saints."

He suddenly raised his head and suddenly became happy: "Wow, Li Lang, president."

Mi Li shouted excitedly: "The president is back!"

This shout had a very powerful effect. Most of the vendors on the street ran over, surrounding Li Siye and asking questions with adoring eyes.

"I heard that the president followed the saint into the palace and became a high official. Is this true?"

"Nonsense, haven't you seen this Jiu Kua belt? This is a seventh-grade official, equivalent to a county magistrate!"

"The county magistrate is incomparable to Li Lang. He is a close official of the emperor!"

Li Siye felt a little embarrassed for a moment. With so many people watching, he felt like a monkey. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't block everyone in the street. Let's go to the green onion pancake shop to talk."

Li Siye and everyone walked into the store, but unfortunately the store was too small to accommodate so many people. Many people stood outside the door and looked inside.

"Li Lang, President, do you know that you are famous in our West Market? Everyone knows that you impressed the saint by making cakes and cool skin, and you were awarded a high official position."

"That's right, those of us who are doing business are in low-level jobs, and we will never be officials in our lives. This is your first time in the Western Market."

Then a sudden voice sounded: "Li Langjun, you once promised that you would not teach the Liangpi skills to us until we have earned all the contribution points, but now you have passed it on to the saint..."

This man's voice became quieter and quieter, and finally turned into a gnat, almost inaudible. But everyone still fell silent, looking at Li Siye with a resentful look like a little daughter-in-law.

Sure enough, this is what you sow, and of course you have to enjoy the results yourself. These small vendors in the Western Market are exposed to wind and rain all day long, and it is not easy for them to work hard.

"Ahem, let me explain to you. In fact, I have an ultimate task here. If you complete it directly, you can get 10,000 contribution points."

"What mission?"

"Whoever can make me see the saint can get 10,000 contribution points. So the saint has completed the task, and I can only give him the contribution points."

The atmosphere in the store suddenly became quiet, as everyone seemed to be looking for logical loopholes in this sentence. Gao Shi, who was standing at the door of the store, suddenly laughed and whispered: "You are so cunning."

Everyone shouted loudly again: "President, you can't do this. Aren't you cheating?"

Li Siye rolled his eyes at Gao Shi, then waved to everyone and said: "Don't worry, everyone, although this cold skin recipe has entered the palace, isn't it not available in the Western Market? The contribution points of our Food Association are still valid. I

Subsequent tasks will be released until you have accumulated enough 10,000 contribution points."

Now everyone started arguing again: "Then you publish the task quickly, we are all waiting to earn contribution points."

Li Siye lowered his head and thought for a while. It seemed that there was nothing that needed to mobilize the masses for the time being, but the enthusiasm of the crowd was high, so he had to think carefully before speaking:

"Let's do this, I'll issue a business task, that is, each of you will develop your own store and increase your efforts to make money. Whoever's funds on hand reach 100,000 yuan first, I will reward you with 2,000 contribution points."

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at each other. What kind of mission is this? To encourage everyone to make money. Whoever has more money can learn the cold skin recipe? "

At this time, someone in the crowd stretched out his hand and said proudly: "Me!"

Li Siye looked up and saw this hand walking in front of him from the crowd, but it was a Hu man from the Western Regions. He bent down and crossed his chest and said: "The president is really generous. I already have one hundred coins at home. If the president

If you don’t believe it, you can come with me to see it.”

Li Siye wanted to curse, you already have so much fucking money at home, why do you want to learn this recipe from everyone?

"What's your name?"

"President, my name is Zhang Gui. I am from Shazhou Dunhuang. I have a family business in Dunhuang and a family business in Chang'an."

Li Siye grabbed Fu's head hard, pointed at Gao Shi and said, "Gao Shi, look at the account books. Does our association have this Zhang Gui? When did he join, why don't I know?"

Zhang Gui was still smiling and seemed not worried at all.

"Oh." Gao Shi quickly opened the account book, checked it carefully, nodded and said, "Yes, there is this Zhang Gui. He joined the association on the day it was established."

Li Siye hesitated for a moment and said to everyone in a haha, "You just heard it wrong. Whoever's family is the first to save one million yuan will be rewarded with two thousand contribution points."

As a result, Zhang Gui raised his hand again: "Me."

This time Li Siye had to be surprised: "Brother Zhang, I'm talking about cash, one million."

Zhang Gui nodded humbly and said: "Yes, but I have to go home and take out the gold and exchange it for cash in the East Market. One million is more than enough."

Li Siye raised his head and asked, "Are you a rich man?"

Zhang Gui smiled honestly and said: "I am a bit bold, but I am not rustic at all."

There is no way, he can't raise the standard to 10 million yuan. If the other party has it, he will not be able to get out of the way. This will make the other brothers of the association mess around.

Li Siye discussed it and asked him: "You are so rich, why do you care about this cold skin recipe?"

"To tell you the truth, President, ever since you made this cold skin, I have been so hungry that I want to learn this thing. I personally admire the President very much, and I hope that when the President comes to Shazhou, he will

Come to my home as a guest."

"Okay," Li Siye had no choice but to ask Gao Shi to write down Zhang Gui's name and contribute two thousand points.

The others had no choice but to leave, but Zhang Gui still did not leave and followed Li Siye.

"What are you still doing here?"

Zhang Gui said with a smile: "I have always been trustworthy. To show my sincerity, I would like to invite the president to come to my home for inspection."
