Chapter 1238 Talk collapsed?
"What kind of cooperation? Are you still awake?
Or is it that you are old and confused? "

The expression on Li Lao's face didn't change a bit, which made Wan Lao, who had been staring at him closely, reveal a mysterious smile.

He gently placed the tea cup in his hand on the table. Li Laoxu didn't take a sip of the glass of water he just drank. Wan Lao nodded first, then said "hehe" and shook his head with his eyes closed.

Then he suddenly opened his eyes, and like a tiger emerging from its cage, he revealed his terrifying light and said, "You can hide it from others, how can you hide it from me?"

Originally, I wanted to use psychological tactics, and use a sudden "attack" to see how Mr. Li's expression would change under his "ferocious" appearance.

But what surprised Mr. Li was that Mr. Li's expression didn't seem to change at all, just looking at him so casually, as if nothing had happened?
Mr. Li then showed a very strange expression and said: "What are you talking about? Are you so babbling?
Hey~!no?
You haven't gone out for a long time, can't you be confused?Do you want me to call a doctor for you and let's go to the hospital? "

If Chu Yunfeng had been at the scene, he would have been able to see that Mr. Li's expression was really concerned, and he wanted to touch Wan Lao's forehead with his hand to see if he had a fever.

"Fuck you, stop playing sloppy with me!"

Seeing Mr. Li reaching out his hand, Mr. Wan knocked it off at once, and then narrowed his eyes: "Old guy, old guy, do you really want to bury them?
Could it be that you still want to bring all these things in?
We are all at this age, do we really leave nothing for young people, or this culinary world? "

Wan Lao seemed to want to change his strategy and started to use a "warm and gentle" approach, but Mr. Li didn't seem to accept this at all, and his brows furrowed deeper.
"Are you really confused?
Didn't you say that I raised Xiao Chu?He is so good now, why should I be dissatisfied? "

As soon as Chu Yunfeng was mentioned, Mr. Li seemed to be very satisfied. His whole person instantly showed a happy expression, and it was very natural, not like he was pretending at all.

But Wan Lao didn't think so, he immediately said with a hint of disdain: "Pretend, you continue to pretend to me?
You old guy, we have been friends for so many years, and you are not willing to tell me the truth? "

It seemed that Wan Lao felt a little unusually angry that Mr. Li continued to play riddles with him, so he quickly picked up the teacup on the table again and drank it in one gulp.

When the tea cup was placed heavily on the table with a thick "bang" sound, Wan Lao stood up directly from the recliner, looking extremely serious.

"Old man Li, I come here with great sincerity this time. Both of us are half dead and about to be buried, so I won't follow you in circles!

Whether this Manchu-Han banquet can appear in front of the world again depends on this conversation you have with me.

Wait, don't touch my forehead with your hands, you know what I'm talking about! ! ! "

Seeing that Wan Lao almost took a picture of his stretched out hand, Mr. Li pursed his lips, stretched out his hand, and spread his hands to express his helplessness.

But Wan Lao's expression looked a little more serious, and he continued to say in a deep voice: "You understand what I mean, what I mean by the Man-Han Banquet.

I have part of the essence passed down by the older generation, and you have part of it. As long as we can cooperate, then they will definitely be able to show their former incomparable glory in front of the world.

do you understand me? "

After hearing Wan Lao's excited longing, Li pouted and shook his head innocently.

This old bastard! ! !
In his heart, Wan Lao despised the little old man opposite who was still pretending to be stupid. He had already mentioned this, but he still pretended to be stupid with him?

Seeing that the words he had been brewing for many years didn't seem to have the slightest effect, Wan Lao's mood was very complicated. What should he do if the other party couldn't get enough of him?

"Okay, how about you tell me what you think? We can discuss whatever needs you have for this cooperation, but you won't just pretend to be confused with me, right?"

Wan Lao actually talked for a long time and did not ask Mr. Li what the Manchu-Han banquet was about. If other people heard it, they would be very confused.

But Wan Lao was sure that Mr. Li must understand what he said, but he didn't want to respond to him, so he pretended to be confused.

The reason why they didn't discuss it directly was probably because they wanted to retain some division of rights, so there was a situation where the two of them were "talking about each other".

Having said all this, Mr. Li could only sigh deeply. This made Mr. Wan a little nervous, and he quickly leaned his body forward a little, wanting to listen to him. answer.

"Oh, I really don't understand what you are talking about?
What does this have to do with me for a long time?
I'm just a chef who cooks Sichuan cuisine. This Manchu-Han Banquet is your Beijing sect's business. What do you want from me?
Nervous."

As Mr. Li was talking, at the end he threw his hand to the sky with infinite regret, indicating that he didn't know anything.

"Old man Li, you bastard!

Tianhao, Zhao Tianhao, get back here!

go!
let's go! "

As if feeling that he had been insulted, Wan Lao got angry and shouted at the top of his voice.

I wipe, what happened?

Zhao Tianhao actually stayed behind the bamboo forest. Although he was very curious about what these two people wanted to talk about, they actually let him avoid it?

You must know that Master always keeps his secrets no matter what the matter is, and never shy away from it, so this must be a very important matter. Although he wanted to know very much, he did not eavesdrop.

But why did this master get angry all of a sudden?
And it sounds like his tone is even more angry than usual. What is the problem between these two people?
"Ah~!

Here, here, here I come! "

But he didn't dare not agree, and he ran out immediately, and soon came to Wan Lao's side. He immediately saw the angry Master, and an extremely surprised Lao Li.

"Old Man Wan, why are you so crazy with me?"

Old Li's face was filled with astonishment, his look of disbelief seemed very sincere, and he was sincerely puzzled by Wan Lao's sudden change of expression.

It was better not to speak. After speaking, Wan Lao became even more furious. He slapped the table hard and said, "I remember you, Old Man Li, remember it for me.

Let's go! "

He was really angry. Wan Lao walked straight out the door. Zhao Tianhao thought that his master was joking, but how could he have thought that he was serious?

Wan Lao didn't react until Wan Lao had walked a few steps, so he quickly saluted Mr. Li and then immediately chased after him.

Mr. Li also took a step, but only moved a little, then shrank back, thought for a while, and didn't go up to see off the guest.

Instead, he walked directly to the rocking chair and immediately lay down, staring at the blue sky, expressionless.
Aunt Zhang heard the movement here, and hurried out to check, especially when she saw that Mr. Li was lying on the rocking chair without moving, she was immediately startled.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Li, what's wrong with you, are you okay?"

Hurry up and check the situation. Could this be something? Oh my god?

Hearing Aunt Zhang's cry, the pupils of Mr. Li's eyes shrank, and then he replied, "Is there anything wrong? I'm in a daze here."

"Ah~?

all right?
Is it really okay? "

After hearing Mr. Li's response, Aunt Zhang calmed down. She had really frightened herself just now.

By the way, Aunt Zhang reacted immediately and immediately asked: "Where are the guests?"

"gone!"

Mr. Li said casually, and then began to close his eyes. He didn't know whether he wanted to sleep or was just pretending to be asleep?
gone?

This guest is really strange. Let's go. He seemed to have lost his temper with Mr. Li just now. But don't make the old man angry and cause problems. He will cause trouble for you then!
And when Wan Lao walked out of the gate of Li's hometown angrily, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, and then stood still.

Zhao Tianhao finally caught up with him, so it can be seen how angry Wan Lao was just now, and how fast was he walking?
"Master? Did you just..."

Wanting to know what happened between his master and Mr. Li just now, Zhao Tianhao just asked in confusion when he realized that his master was not in the right state.

He seems to be deep in thought?
hiss~!

Wait a while, I can't disturb the master's train of thought, so Zhao Tianhao stood by and waited quietly.

About a minute later, Wan Lao suddenly said "Ouch" and slapped his thigh heavily, making a look of realization, and then slapped his deeply wrinkled and depressed forehead.

"It's really you, Old Man Li, do you think you can fool me by pretending to be deaf and mute?
If you don’t accept the move, forget it. I’ll see if your apprentice accepts the move, haha.”

Before Zhao Tianhao could ask further questions, Wan Lao immediately smiled and shook his head.

"Master, what is this?"

Before Zhao Tianhao could react, Wan Lao immediately started striding forward, preparing to go outside the community to take a taxi.

After Zhao Tianhao caught up quickly, he immediately said: "Let's go to Xingchen quickly. Since Old Man Li doesn't accept the move, then we will find his apprentice.

I think his apprentice will definitely be interested, and we will see if Old Man Li still cooperates with me, huh."

The more Wan Lao talked, the more excited he became, and then he started trotting as if he was running at full speed, leaving Zhao Tianming who was following him stunned.

But no matter what he asked, Wan Lao shook his head and refused to reveal anything, making the curiosity in his heart almost uncontrollable.

After getting on the bus, the two of them sat in the back row. After Wan Lao thought for a while, he asked in a low voice: "Given your relationship with Chu Yunfeng, if you ask him to come out alone for a chat later, will he agree? "

Brother Chu?

Chat alone?
Zhao Tianhao frowned and looked at his master seriously, and then saw Wan Lao nodded seriously.

After thinking about it carefully with a frown, Zhao Tianhao said with a hint of uncertainty: "It should be possible, right? I think Brother Chu is quite easy to talk to."

"It shouldn't be, will it be?"

"Uh~! Okay, okay, let's just talk alone. Brother Chu will still give me this face!"

After being "threatened" by Wan Lao's eyes, Zhao Tianhao immediately nodded in agreement with a hint of affirmation.

But Wan Lao suddenly changed the subject and said, "What if his master, Mr. Li, tells him not to meet us, are you still sure?"

hiss~!

Don't play with me?

"Master, if you have anything to say, please tell me directly. Is it interesting for me to play like this?"

Something is wrong, something is very wrong. Zhao Tianhao suddenly realized that this must be a big deal. Could he have been tricked by his master?

"Haha, look how brave you are! Call Chu Yunfeng right now and tell him I'm here. Find a private room alone at the hotel and talk to him about something."

It seemed that he had made a decision. Wan Lao recognized his plan and smiled at Zhao Tianhao with a hint of encouragement.

"Master, Master, please tell me what's going on here?

If you don't make it clear, I won't dare to call Brother Chu. I can't trick Brother Chu, right? "

Zhao Tianhao admired Chu Yunfeng's cooking skills and his personality, so he wanted to maintain a good relationship with Chu Yunfeng and never let his master cheat him.

Seeing that Zhao Tianhao actually resisted him, Wan Lao immediately became unhappy: "What's the matter, do you dare to disobey my order?
Besides, when did I say I was going to trick Xiaochu?

I brought him a great deed, which he could never ask for in his life. If he knew, he would be grateful to me for the rest of his life.

This is a good thing, do you understand?

Would you like to make a call? "

Seeing that the more he spoke, Zhao Tianhao's brows furrowed deeper, and he even showed a look of disbelief in himself, which almost made him want to slap him on the head.

Would you do such a shameless thing as cheating on others?

"Aren't you going to make this call?"

"No, unless you tell me what it is first?"

This was the first time that Zhao Tianhao refuted Wan Lao's opinion, so he decided to go all out today.

After staring at Zhao Tianhao for a long time, he found that he seemed to be uncompromising at all. Wan Lao finally felt helpless.

In the end, he could only sigh and said: "Okay, let me tell you, does the whole banquet know about it?"

???

what's the situation?
Zhao Tianhao said suspiciously: "Man and Han banquet? Do you know?
Who among the catering companies in this capital doesn’t know about the Manchu-Han banquet?Why do you say this? "

"Then do you know who else in the entire capital can cook this Manchu-Han banquet?"

"You know, aren't there a few other restaurants that can cook it? But I heard that none of them seem to be authentic, and many of the dishes have been lost."

As if he heard something, Zhao Tianhao became more curious and confused. It seemed that his master came to Chengdu just for the Manchu Banquet.

But what does this Manchu-Han banquet have to do with Mr. Li?

He is a chef of Sichuan cuisine?
Could this Sichuan cuisine have anything to do with the Manchu Banquet?

Don't be ridiculous, right?
"To tell you the truth, I came to Chengdu with you just for the Man-Han banquet. Otherwise, do you think I am idle?

I asked you to call Xiao Chu because I wanted to give him a great opportunity to learn the Manchu-Han banquet. Do you want to make this call? "

After Wan Lao, who had a slightly serious expression, finished speaking, Zhao Tianhao was completely shocked, and then immediately asked with a confused look: "You didn't lie to me?"

"When have I lied to you?"

hiss~!

Is this true?
Zhao Tianhao couldn't express his feelings at this time. Is that a Man-Han banquet?

Are you about to witness the truth of a piece of history?
"Fight, fight, fight, I'll fight right away. Master, hurry up and tell me about this Manchu."

"Hurry up and call us. We'll talk about it later if you have anything else!"

"Okay, okay, I'm just kidding. Please tell me first."

"Hello? Brother Chu, I, I, I, Tianhao!"

"Tianhao, have you arrived in Chengdu? I'm a little busy here. Do you want me to ask someone to pick you up at the airport?"

"No, no, I've already come out of the airport, and now I'm heading towards the Star Hotel. What, my master is also here, and I want to have a private chat with you, do you have time here?"

"Master? Wait, you mean Mr. Wan? He's here too?"

"Ah, yes, do you have time here?"

"Why don't you have time when Wan Lao comes in person? Even if you don't have time, you have to make time. Let me know when you are almost there and I will come down to pick you up!"

"Oh, okay, okay, let's see you later, it's settled!"

"Okay, see you later!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Tianhao immediately cheered and began to ask Wan Lao questions.
