Jianghu Is Not Solitude

Li Chunfu glared at the waiter as a hint of displeasure flitted across his face. "Do I look like I'm joking with you?"

"But Boss Li, that pot of tea is worth five taels of silver, you can only give me one tael of silver …" Bitterness was written all over the man's face. Although he was angry, he dared not flare up because of his status.

"I've already given you more than one piece of paper!" Li Chunfu took out a palm-sized abacus from his bosom and fiddled with it, then said, "Let me calculate for you, you'll understand! "According to your store's rules, the first time you come here and drink a pot of tea is half a price, so it is two to five gold coins. In addition, if you bring your friends here for the first time, it will be reduced by half a pot of tea and you can get five cups of tea. We only drank three cups, so we should pay seven dollars."

He turned his mouth to the side and said in a strange tone, "Big Boss Li, even though you're good at scheming, you're still able to calculate the price of the tea to seven hundred and fifty yuan, but you only gave me a single coin. Let's see how you are going to make up for the deficit!"

Li Chunfu immediately laughed, "Don't worry, I'm not done calculating yet! Today is my youngest son's birthday, so your big boss has to send someone to give him a big present. Of course, I know he's stingy, but no matter what, he should at least give me a silver tael, right? "After losing seven and a half taels of silver, you still owe me two and a half taels of silver. Now that I've given you another tael of silver, why don't you tell me if you've already given me too much?"

When the tea servant heard this, he almost fainted from anger. Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and pull Li Chunfu away, he heard someone shout from the stairs, "Forget it, let Boss Li go! You can't win against him! "

Li Chunfu obviously recognized this person, he was the manager of this brothel, Li Annian. A few years ago, because of his happy move to his new residence, Li Chunfu gave him a silver tael as a congratulatory gift. Now that he heard Li Chunfu speak, he smiled and said, "Manager Li, thank you very much!"

Li Annian shook his head, and said, "You're welcome, sooner or later, I will pay you back!"

"Manager Li, why do you speak like that? "I am giving you face by coming here, I …" "You … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you …. Li Chunfu still wanted to say something, but was pushed back by Meng Chunlou. Afterwards, the three of them didn't say anything and hurried downstairs.

After leaving the teahouse, Meng Chunlou could not help but give Li Chunfu a thumbs up, "Boss Li is so good at scheming, this is really a miracle in the world!"

Li Chunfu scratched his head, then laughed, "They dared to ask for 5 taels of silver for a pot of tea. If I didn't teach them a lesson, they would think I, Li Chunfu, was a fool! Hur Hur Hur, you've let the two of you down! "

"Boss Li, based on what you said, if we were to go to the Top Scorer Restaurant in a bit and play such tricks, we might not be able to make it in time!" Du Jiangsheng said awkwardly.

When Li Chunfu heard this, his face was also embarrassed. He laughed loudly: "Don't worry, both of you. I have money, so of course I know what the Top Scorer Restaurant is. I can't do something so shameful like that!"

"Since Boss Li has said so, I am relieved!" Du Jiangsheng said with a smile.

"The top scholar tower is still far from here, let's go by car!" Li Chunfu laughed.

"Boss Li is afraid of the heat, right?" Du Jiangsheng asked.

Li Chunfu scratched his head and laughed, "I am afraid you two will feel hot! "Please get in the car!"

Meng and Du did not hold back, they immediately got into the carriage, Li Chunfu took the carriage driver's whip, and laughed: "Young man, let me do it! "Go to the back!"

"Boss, this doesn't seem to be appropriate, right?" the coachman asked suspiciously.

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. Since I was young, I've grown up on a horse. Can't I catch a carriage?" As Li Chunfu spoke, he got into the car, turned around and shouted into it, "You two, sit down. I'm leaving!"

There were many people on the streets, and there were many mischievous children shuttling back and forth. However, Li Chunfu drove the carriage very smoothly, and didn't stop at all along the way. This surprised the official driver, and he couldn't help but praise, "Boss, your driving skills are amazing. It's really amazing!"

Hearing that, Li Chunfu grinned, "It's not a joke! I, Li Chunfu, can ride cattle at the age of six and drive at the age of nine.

"So you're Boss Li!" exclaimed the coachman.

"Humph! Humph!" "It's me, Li!" Li Chunfu laughed.

"I've always heard that Boss Li is the most stingy, refusing to even hire a coachman when he goes out. Now it seems like there's a trick to this!" The coachman said seriously.

When Li Chunfu heard this, the smile on his face froze. He carefully thought about it, then asked: "Lad, what do you mean by this? Why can't I understand? "

"I think they said that Boss Li was stingy only because he had seen the surface. If they had experienced your driving skills, they would have understood why you didn't hire a coachman. Which coachman could be better than Boss Li?" The driver laughed.

When Li Chunfu heard this, he could not help but let out a long breath, thinking in his heart: "At least it's not against me! Otherwise, this time, I will be at the hands of a coachman like you! "

Thinking about that, he immediately laughed, "You're right! Those people would only be able to drive my butt into two. How could I be as comfortable as driving a car myself? "

Before long, the carriage had arrived in front of the Top Scorer Building. Li Chunfu jumped down from the carriage and opened the curtains. He smiled at Meng Chunlou, "Sir, we're here!"

Meng and Du got off the carriage one after another. The coachman was the last one to get off. Li Chunfu took out a coin from his sleeve and handed it to the coachman: "Buddy, take it!"

The driver took the copper coin from Li Chunfu and was surprised. "Boss Li, this is not right! Did you give it to the wrong person? "

"Wrong?" What's wrong? " Li Chunfu asked.

"If you use my car, you should at least give me a nine-letter line. Why are you only giving me a single coin?" the coachman asked.

"Let me ask you, who was driving all this way?" Li Chunfu asked.

"Of course it's your Boss Li!" The coachman said.

"Then wouldn't that be it? I'll drive for you, so of course you have to drive for me. I'll give you a piece of paper. Li Chunfu spread his hands and asked with a smile.

"Boss Li, this isn't the way to settle accounts!" The coachman was immediately flustered. "That car was something you were fighting to take. I didn't force you to take it!"

"What is it? The first time I sat in your car, you gave me a hard time? Do you still want to do business with me in the future? " Li Chunfu asked.

"Boss Li, you have a large background, why do you have to make things difficult for a little old man like me? "Our family has worked hard..."

"Alright, alright, it's not over yet!" Li Chunfu immediately took out four large pieces of money from his sleeve and shoved it into the driver's hand, "I'll give you more money, stop messing around, is that alright?"

"Boss Li, I'm already so old, and I earn some change from driving a car. Just treat it as taking pity on me …"

"Is there something wrong with my face?" Li Chunfu frowned, "You dare to act old in front of me. Have you forgotten that I will grow old one day? You know it's hard now. What did you do when you were young? I think you deserve to be poor! Hurry up and scram. If you anger the old master, you will be in for it! "

When Meng Chunlou heard this, he could not help but glare at Li Chunfu angrily. He sneered, "So it turns out Boss Li is not a person who can afford four coins. It seems like this business will not be possible!"

When Li Chunfu heard this, he immediately became anxious. He forced a smile and apologized, while taking out a silver coin from his sleeve to hand to the driver, and said, "Big brother, I was joking with you. See how I made you worry! Have you been tricked by me? "Come, come, come, take this silver. Consider it as me apologizing to you!"

The coachman was completely befuddled by Li Chunfu and didn't know whether to accept or reject the money. Du Jiangsheng took Li Chunfu's silver and stuffed it into the coachman's hand, saying, "Gramps, hurry up and leave, Boss Li really gave you the money!"

When the coachman heard this, he immediately thanked Boss Li profusely. He then cupped his hands towards Boss Li and left in a hurry.

Li Chun stared at the coachman as he left reluctantly, cursing, "Look at this driving skill, luckily we didn't let him drive, otherwise the three of us would really be out of luck!"

"Boss Li, the top scholar's office is right in front of us. Should we go in or not?" Meng Chun Lou asked with a smile.

"Of course we have to enter. Not only do we have to enter, we also have to enter the private rooms!" "Follow me!" Li Chunfu immediately stuck out his chest and raised his head as he strode forward in a square step. He walked casually into the Champion Stadium and shouted: "Where is the waiter? Get out of my way! "

When the errand boy heard his call, he came running over and bowed as he asked, "Boss Li, how come you have the time to visit us today? "Quick, come in!"

"I'm inviting two distinguished guests to a banquet at the brothel today. Do you have a private room?" Li Chunfu asked.

"Aiyo, you really did not come at the right time. The last private room in our store has already been booked!" The shop assistant found it difficult to reply.

"What?" It was not easy for me to make a trip here, and it was to the point of doing something big. How dare you throw my face? " Li Chun Fu said angrily.

"Oh wow, Boss Li, you're wrong!" This shop is indeed full of customers today. If there's even a single lie, who cares if I get struck to death by lightning! " The shop assistant solemnly vowed.

When Li Chunfu heard this, he could not help but get so angry that his ears turned red. However, he was inwardly overjoyed. He thought to himself, "It's better if we don't have a private room. This grandpa has saved another meal of money!"

At this time, Du Jiangsheng spoke to Meng Chunlou somewhat unhappily, "Master, since this place is full of guests, let's go eat at another house. We might even run into a few stone-selling people here!"

Before Meng Chunlou could reply, he heard Li Chunfu shout loudly, "Waiter, I don't care what method you use, I want to eat here today. Quickly prepare it for me, if you wait for my guests, I will tear you down!"

"Boss Li, aren't you making things difficult for me?" This shop is indeed full. You can't possibly kick someone out just for you, right? " The shop assistant had a troubled expression.

"Do you f * cking not understand human speech? If you dare to choke me, I'll make my move! " Li Chun Fu said angrily.

When the waiter saw that he was truly angered, he could only beg and ask, "How about this? If you don't want to stay here for the banquet, I will set up a table for you on the second floor. After someone has left, I will arrange a private room for you."

"Fuck you!" Li Chunfu kicked the shop assistant to the ground, "You really don't care about face at all when you're giving it to me. Laozi will speak all the good words for you, but you dare to show your face. I think you deserve a beating!"

As Li Chunfu said this, he was about to beat the shop assistant up, when the shop assistant shouted loudly, "Shopkeeper, come quickly! Boss Li is infuriated! "

This shout was no different from a talisman of urging. The shopkeeper didn't bother to fiddle with the abacus, instead, he went around the counter in a fluster and ran over, shouting from afar: "Which one of you is angry? Don't you think he knows that this is the top scorer's tower? "

"That's me!" Li Chunfu's eyes were wide open as he stared fixedly at the face of the manager with an appearance of being wronged.

When the shopkeeper saw Li Chunfu, he immediately smiled and said, "So it's Boss Li. I don't know how the waiters offended you, but they actually made you so angry. I'll apologize for them!"

When Li Chunfu heard this, his anger was immediately gone by more than half, he said: "Today, I am going to borrow your Top Scorer Pavilion's feast to invite distinguished guests, but this brat doesn't know how to appreciate favors, making things difficult for me at every turn. Just now, I couldn't help but kick him, the shopkeeper won't be angry, right?"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he glared angrily at the shop assistant and asked softly, "What exactly happened?"

"He wants a private room, but the last room has already been reserved by Boss Zhao Dexing. Even this little one is in a dilemma!" The fellow explained while rubbing his stomach.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he already knew what was going on. He immediately turned to Li Chunfu and smiled, "Boss Li, the store is indeed in a difficult situation today. Please forgive me! In my opinion, this place is a good place. Not only is it spacious, it is also cool.

Li Chunfu looked around and saw that, although the first floor was spacious, there were still many customers sitting. These people were all chatting loudly and the clamor was very loud. He frowned and asked, "What did you say? You want me and my guests to sit and drink with this bunch of common folk? Are you f * cking blind? "

The innkeeper faintly smiled and said: "Boss Li, these people aren't ordinary people. Picking any one of them is enough to make a fortune for them!"

"No matter how rich they are, do they still have more money than me?" Li Chunfu sneered.

"Of course they don't have as much money as you, Boss Li, but they are also customers of this store, so how can this store not care about them?" The shopkeeper laughed.

"So, you're not going to give me this face?" Li Chun Fu said angrily.

"I am indeed in a difficult position!" The manager said with a serious expression.

When Li Chunfu heard this, he couldn't help but feel infuriated. He rushed over and grabbed the shopkeeper by the neck. Just as he was about to viciously punch him, he heard Meng Chunlou say, "Hold it!"

Li Chunfu turned to look at Meng Chunlou and asked, "Sir, I will bear the responsibility for this alone. You just need to wait for the seats to be taken!"

"We're all business people. If we have something to say, we can talk about it. Why do we need to hurt each other?" Meng Chun Lou walked over with a smile and separated the two. Then she turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I have an idea. I wonder if you can accept it?"

The innkeeper had originally planned to risk his life to fight with Li Chunfu, but after hearing Meng Chunlou's words, he could only suppress his anger and say, "Sir, please speak!"

"I heard from the shop assistant that the last private room has been reserved. I wonder if the guests have arrived yet?" Meng Chun Lou asked.

"Not yet!" The shopkeeper answered.

"Since that's the case, why don't you lend it to us first? If the guests arrive, we can move to other places and save you the hassle. What do you think? Furthermore, if any other guests have left, you can make room for them! " Meng Chun said.

"Good idea!" The shopkeeper immediately agreed and looked at Li Chunfu, "Boss Li, what do you think?"

"Yes, yes. It's just moving around. Troublesome!" Li Chunfu said.

"No trouble, no trouble!" Everything will be done by us, we guarantee that we will not ruin your mood, and in order to express our apologies, we will even discount the price by 20%, what do you think? " The shopkeeper laughed.

"That's more like it!" Li Chunfu let go of the manager with a smile.

Seeing that Li Chunfu was interested, the shopkeeper turned to the shop assistant and said, "Why don't you hurry up and make the arrangements?"

When the shop assistant heard the order, he immediately shouted and hurriedly went upstairs to prepare.

Li Chunfu was pleased with himself as he smiled at Meng Chunlou, "Sir, after you!"

Meng Chunlou was about to start walking when he heard someone call out from outside the door, "Waiter, have you prepared all of your grandpa's dishes?"
