At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 58
Luoyang City, General Zuowei's Mansion.

living room.

Duan Xuankun sat in the first place. He said he was sitting, but he was actually sitting on the ground with his legs crossed.

And the two people sitting in front of him were the shopkeepers of two other restaurants in Luoyang City.

Huangfuqun, the shopkeeper of Heyi Tower, and Zhao Wenqin, the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower.

"I don't know why Shopkeeper Duan called us here?" Huangfu Qun sipped tea and asked with a frown.

Duan Xuankun is the half-brother of General Zuowei Duan Da, and the shopkeeper of Zuixian Pavilion.

As for Duan Da, now he is at the top of the list among the seven nobles in Luoyang, because he has the military power in Luoyang, he is deeply trusted by Yang Hao.

"In Yongkang, a restaurant is about to open, do you two know?" The corners of Duan Xuankun's mouth curled up, and a gleam of coldness flashed in his eyes.

These days, that restaurant can be said to be extremely arrogant, blatantly clamoring for the three restaurants, and even released wild claims that the meals in the three restaurants are just leftovers.

Huangfu Qun, the shopkeeper of Heyilou, shook his head with a smile and said with a smile, "Could it be that the restaurant that shopkeeper Duan refers to has sold the restaurant in Fushoulou?"

He has an impression of this restaurant. In recent days, the entire Luoyang food industry has been buzzing.

However, he didn't take this grandstanding behavior seriously.

His Heyi Tower's fresh food has occupied the top list of delicacies in Luoyang City for decades, and that Fushou Tower was so crowded by him that it couldn't continue to open.

In the field of fresh fish, he is confident that no one can surpass not only Luoyang, but also the entire Sui Dynasty.

"Exactly, this restaurant is openly provoking the three of us, don't the two shopkeepers have any ideas?" Duan Xuankun half-closed his eyes and stood up from the couch.

Zhao Wenqin, the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower, frowned slightly: "I don't know what the shopkeeper Duan is going to do?"

In fact, he didn't take this kind of jumping clown to heart at all.

Didn't even pay attention.

He has been operating in Luoyang for decades, and he has seen many sensational restaurants like this.

In the end, he became a joke instead.

Duan Xuankun groaned for a while, took two steps, and showed a sneer: "It seems that such clowns are making a splash, so naturally they should be disgraced, and they can't even open Zhang!"

Huangfuqun and Zhao Wenqin looked at each other, although they were puzzled why Duan Xuankun would attack such a small restaurant, but after thinking for a while, they still nodded and said, "I wish to follow the advice of shopkeeper Duan."

With the support of Huangfuqun and Zhao Wenqin, Duan Xuankun immediately laughed, took the two of them by the hand and walked towards the backyard, saying as he walked: "I specially prepared roasted whole lamb and fine wine for the two of you. If you don't get drunk tonight, you won't go home."

Afterwards, it was a scene where the guests and the host had a good time and were full of wine and food.

After Huangfuqun and Zhao Wenqin left, the smile on Duan Xuankun's face subsided.

During the period, the three of them discussed how to deal with this newly opened restaurant.

Yongkangli is close to Miyagi, and this area is full of residences of dignitaries, roughly equivalent to a part of later generations.

The Zuixian Pavilion, Heyi Tower and Wangjiang Tower are all located here.

After hearing the wild words from this new restaurant, Duan Xuankun, the shopkeeper of Zuixian Pavilion, asked people to investigate.

I don't know if I don't investigate, but I'm shocked when I investigate.

"It turns out that the owner behind this restaurant is... Fan Zhu."

A cold light flashed in Duan Xuankun's eyes, and when he thought of the fine white salt Fan Zhu brought, his heart couldn't help but get hot.

Different from green salt, white salt has almost no impurities and is extremely fine. After he tasted it, he ate green salt, but it was hard to swallow.

Immediately accepted Fan Zhu's goods for three thousand guns.

After the transaction was completed, Duan Xuankun asked who Fan Zhu was working for, whether there was such refined salt, and how to make it.

But Fan Zhu talked about him from left to right, keeping secrets all the time.

Finally, as a last resort, Duan Xuankun sent someone to follow Fan Zhu, wanting to know his whereabouts, but the follower was knocked unconscious halfway.

After a long time, I came back to report that I lost my heel...

Then Fan Zhu disappeared in Luoyang City so strangely, until...he found out that Fan Zhu was the owner of this new restaurant.

"Come on, send me a letter to Fan Zhu."

Duan Xuankun then walked into the study, wrote a letter with his own hand, and summoned the servants.

In the letter, he wrote the trading method.

As long as Fan Zhu handed over the method of making refined salt, he was allowed to set up a restaurant in Luoyang City.

Otherwise...he won't be able to stay in Luoyang City any longer!
……

Xianweiju is still under renovation.

After receiving the letter from Duan Xuankun, Fan Zhu quickly found Xu Mu.

Xu Mu received the threatening letter with a look of disdain, and said regretfully, "Unfortunately, Sun Ying is not here, otherwise a letter can teach him how to behave!"

He actually wanted to seize his method of making refined salt?
Also wrote to threaten...

If you don't hand it over, they won't be able to open it.

Fan Zhu didn't know Sun Ying, but seeing the lord so calm, he couldn't help but ease his frown.

But he still said worriedly: "My lord, Duan Xuankun has always been mercenary and has a very small mind. I am afraid that he is really going to attack us."

Drunken Immortal Pavilion is the property under the name of Duan Xuankun.

After he entered the city, it was Duan Xuankun who secretly accepted all his private salt.

And gave a high price of [-] guan.

It's just that this person is addicted to stealing and plundering, he has a long way to go, and he also wants the method of making refined salt.

At that time, someone was sent to follow him, but Tie Futu found him, and he escaped after being knocked unconscious.

"Don't worry, soldiers will come to block, water will come to cover, according to the original plan, it will open in three days!"

Xu Mu was not worried at all.

All conspiracies and tricks are all imaginary in front of real food.

And...he still has a golden signboard.

On the opening day, old Comrade Lu was invited to join us, and the effect was absolutely explosive.

In the noble circles of Luoyang City, the honest man Lu Chu has a great reputation.

As long as he opens his mouth to praise Xianweiju's food, it will be more effective than a hundred words of publicity.

Duan Xuankun most affected ordinary people, and the real nobles in Luoyang City were not something he could fiddle with at will.

Take Comrade Lu's background and Fan Yang's Lu family as an example, they are all unattainable existences of the Duan family.

That afternoon, Lao Lu sent someone to deliver a letter.

Xu Mu was overjoyed immediately. After unfolding it, he saw the three words written on it: Xianweiju.

Then he ordered people to step up to make a plaque and prepare to hang it.

Old Lu probably wouldn't lie to himself.

This must have been written by Yue Wang Yang Hao, the grandson of Lao Yang.

"It's a bit hard to describe, far worse than Lao Yang, but it's not important." When the plaque was hung at the gate of the restaurant, Xu Mu admired it and couldn't help complaining.

Lao Yang's handwriting is not bad among the emperors of all dynasties.

Yang Xun was only 15 years old, and his handwriting at this age was very green and weak.

Fan Zhu looked at the three ordinary characters, and couldn't help but commented with the master: "This character is too ugly, isn't it? Master, why don't we ask calligraphers to inscribe a plaque, this is a matter of our immortals. Weiju's face..."

Xu Mu turned his head, looked at Fan Zhu who was so coquettish, shook his head and patted him on the shoulder.

"This...is the word of Yue Wang Yang Hao."

As a core employee, Xu Mu felt that it was better not to hide it, and told Fan Zhu the truth directly.

Fan Zhu was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out, and he quickly flattered: "This word is flying like a dragon and dancing like a phoenix, and it has a strong character. The pen is written among dragons and snakes, and the aura of domineering is exposed. Could it be that it has won the true biography of the book sage Wang Xizhi?"

Xu Mu: "..."

To be honest, Fan Zhu's flattering reflexes, it's a pity that Yang Hao wasn't there.

It's completely nonsense.

"It's no wonder that the king of Yue wants to learn calligraphy from Lao Lu. With this character, he can't be seen by anyone. As the saying goes, writing is like a person, this Yang Hao...isn't he ugly?"

Xu Mu slandered in his heart, thinking of Lao Yang, who was in his fifties and looked like a handsome uncle.

History books also recorded that Lao Yang was "beautiful and beautiful", so it is reasonable to say that his genes are not too bad.

When Xu Mu was curious about Yang Hao's appearance, Yue Wangfu, Yang Hao had just finished practicing calligraphy for a day.

"Master Lu, has Gu's calligraphy improved today?" Yang Yu pulled the honest man Lu Chu, and his 15-year-old youthful face showed anticipation.

however……

Lu Chu's face was quite ugly, and he thought carefully about the handwriting written by Yang Yan today, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness's handwriting is actually much worse than that of the previous days. It can be seen that the homework these days has been barren, and you should study hard. Make up for it."

As an honest person, even in front of King Yue, he was outspoken.

Yang Yan smiled sheepishly, and could only cup his hands and say, "What Master Lu said is that I've been busy fighting on the front line these few days, so I don't have time to practice calligraphy and study."

Lu Chu nodded slightly and said: "The ministers in the army don't understand. His Highness and General Wang have to work hard, but His Highness's homework must not be neglected and slack. You must know that learning is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat."

Yang Hao is as good as he is, and nodded seriously, "Master Lu taught me the lesson."

Only then did Lu Chu show a gentle smile, and looked at His Highness the King of Yue who respected his master.

A 15-year-old boy with red lips and white teeth, and a good skin.

It's just... the writing is a bit unsightly.

But because Xu Mu rarely made a request, Lu Chu still shyly asked Yang Yan to practice the three words "Xianweiju" all afternoon.

And selected the best words from them and sent them to Xianweiju.

After a day of study, Yang Yan suddenly said: "Master Lu, where is this Xianweiju restaurant? I just want to go and see it."

When Xu Mu asked for calligraphy, Lu Chu naturally didn't dare to lie to him, so he first talked to Yang Hao, and after getting Yang's permission, he started to let Yang Hao practice calligraphy.

And Yang Hao... since he was a child, because of his ugly handwriting, no one has ever asked him for his handwriting.

So this time, it was even more cooperative.

He wrote whatever Lu Chu told him to write.

For this reason, more than 100 "Xianweiju" were selected, and the best one was selected.

Therefore, Yang Yan was very curious about this well-known restaurant.

It is rare in the world to be blind... Ahem, there are people who can read Gu's characters.

Hearing Yang Yan's question, Lu Chu was taken aback for a moment, and then pondered: "Your Highness, this building should take two days to open, but his fish soup is stewed very well and delicious. If Your Highness likes it, I will You can ask his family to send a copy to the Yue Palace."
