Many peers are very disapproving of the fact that Liufangju's business has prospered due to changes in its business strategy. In their opinion, Liufangju is completely lowering its status. The good official store now looks noisy, and it doesn't look like a real store at all. It is just like an ordinary foot shop or even a small village shop.
If these comments were known to Sun Tu, he would definitely laugh at these people for being ignorant. The ultimate goal of opening a store is of course to make money. It doesn't matter whether the hotel feels elegant or vulgar. These are just to attract customers. Just a means.
Precisely because Shopkeeper Wu and others followed Sun Tu's concept, Liufangju immediately became the most special existence among the seventy-two main stores in Tokyo. Although there were fewer dignitaries coming here to drink, the business was really good. . Moreover, not all of their food and wine are only sold to ordinary people. Although the officials will not come in person, they will send their servants to order fried chicken and stir-fry dishes, and the business is still booming.
When the hotel's business is completely on track, Sun Tu no longer has to watch here all day long. He can also spend more time on practicing martial arts. After all, he will face a battle that affects him in a few months. The big test of your future and destiny requires you to go all out. But even so, every two or three days, he would come to the hotel and walk around to see if there was anything that needed improvement.
It's already October, and the weather is slowly turning colder, which makes the business in the hotel more and more prosperous. It was not yet noon when Sun Tu came, and there were already many drinkers inside, changing glasses, making it very lively. In front of the counter in the corner, Sun Tu and Wu Li chatted for a while, and the latter said with some doubts: "Master Sun, I really don't understand what that calligraphy means."
After hearing what he said, Sun Tu turned his attention to the copybook hanging on the wall in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. I saw eight big characters on it - good luck and good luck, eat chicken today!
Two days ago, when Wu Li proposed to post some calligraphy and paintings in the lobby on the first floor, Sun Tu had someone write these words and hang them up. As for the reason why he did this, it was just for bad taste. It was also a way to reminisce about the era before he traveled through time.
Just when Sun Tu didn't know how to explain it, a figure suddenly flashed in front of the hotel door, blocking most of the bright light outside the door. This made Sun Tu and Wu Li both a little curious. They stopped talking and looked outside - the door of Liufangju is more than ten feet high, enough for four or five people to go in and out side by side. Now one person has actually blocked the door. Most of it was really weird.
Then they saw a man seven or eight feet tall and as tall as an iron tower walking in. Then they were surprised to find that the man who came was actually a monk with a bald head. Not only was he wearing a gray cloth monk's robe, There is also a string of huge rosary beads hanging around his thick neck.
Seeing this, the waiter who originally wanted to come forward to greet the guests stopped for a moment, but Wu Lize hurriedly greeted him: "I don't know if Master came to our store to beg for alms or..."
Not only was this monk tall and majestic, but he also had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a fierce look. He also had a rather rough voice. When he heard this, he said: "You are wrong, shopkeeper. The Sa family is here just to drink. Listen. He said that your store has top-quality wines and dishes, as well as some fried chicken. Let’s bring some to Sajia to taste.” After saying that, he strode to an empty table and sat down.
"What the master said is that our restaurant does have some specialties in wine and food, and the fried chicken is one of the best in Tokyo, but..." As he said that, Wu Li showed a slightly embarrassed expression.
At this time, the monk had already smelled the aroma of the chicken that had just been put into the oil pan. His nose suddenly twitched twice, and he swallowed his saliva and said, "Why, are you still afraid that Sajia won't give you money? You Don't worry, the Sa family will never eat for nothing." He touched his hand in his arms and threw a money bag on the table with a bang. It was obvious that there was a lot of money in it.
Wu Li hurriedly waved his hand: "Master, I have misunderstood. This is not what I mean, but..." After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Master, you are a monk of Xiangguo Temple. Our shop does not dare to sell you food or wine to break the precept." Rules." When he said this, his eyes had fallen on the mark on the hem of the monk's robe, where the logo of Xiangguo Temple was indeed embroidered.
As the most famous temple in Tokyo, Daisōkokuji Temple has very strict rules. In order to prevent their monks from doing anything that breaks the precepts, they have already made a warning to the surrounding shops and restaurants, telling them not to sell wine or meat to their monks, otherwise they will be held accountable. Because of this concern, Wu Licai did not dare to agree to the monk's request.
Upon hearing this, the monk's face darkened, and his two thick broom-like eyebrows quickly knitted together: "What kind of bullshit rule is this? The Sa family is almost losing their minds. You actually refuse to sell wine, meat and food." Me? When I was in Mount Wutai, no one dared to do this to me!" As he spoke, he slapped the tabletop with a bang, almost breaking the wooden table apart.
Wu Li's body trembled as he was really afraid that the monk would do something to him. At this moment, a person walked up to the two of them, smiled and said: "This master invites you." It was Sun Tu who came after hearing the sound.
"Who are you? Do you want to stop the Sa family from drinking?" The monk glared at Sun Tudao.
"I am the person in charge of this Liufangju. How about asking Master to come down and talk later?" After saying that, Sun Tu gave the other party a rather meaningful look.
The monk looked rude, but in fact he was rough with finesse. After staring at Sun Tu thoughtfully, he stood up and said, "Just go. Is it possible that the Sa family is still afraid of you?"
Sun Tu then made an invitation gesture, led him through the side door to the backyard of the restaurant, and led him to one of the quiet rooms. After inviting him to take a seat, Wu Li also followed in, and Sun Tu said casually: "Shopkeeper Wu, I will send you two fried chickens and some wine and vegetables."
"Huh?" Both people present were stunned, but Wu Li quickly responded and went out. The monk, on the other hand, stared at Sun Tu in surprise: "What do you mean?"
"I hope the master can understand the difficulties of our restaurant. If we blatantly serve wine and food for the master, it will really cause some trouble. However, this will indeed wrong the master, so today's dinner and banquet will be regarded as the master invited by me." Sun Tu smiled and explained.
The monk didn't appreciate it and just looked at him with some suspicion: "Sa Jia just feels a little strange why you want to help me like this. In fact, it is not a good thing for a monk to eat wine and meat."
"Well, I just saw that the master is a hero and felt that you should not be bound by those rules and regulations, so I made this decision. Of course, I also wanted to make friends with the master." Sun Tu said very much Said frankly.
"Aren't you afraid that Buddha will blame you and me?"
"As the saying goes, after wine and meat go through the intestines, the Buddha sits in the heart. As long as the master has Buddha in his heart, why should he care about the precepts that ordinary people need to abide by?" Sun Tu had already had a countermeasure, and went back without hesitation.
The monk was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "Interesting, you are really interesting. I think I, Lu Zhishen, have also traveled to countless places and met many people, but in terms of interestingness, you are the most interesting." Got it!"
Sure enough it was him! Sun Tu couldn't see much trouble on his face, but he was already happy in his heart. His previous guess was indeed correct.
Originally, he had no idea of coming forward on this matter. It was only after the other party reported his experience of becoming a monk in Mount Wutai that Sun Tu speculated that this was the famous flower monk Lu Zhishen!
Whether it is this person's figure, appearance, temperament, or his accent that clearly has a Kansai accent, people can easily associate him with Lu Zhishen, the most famous among Liangshan heroes. In addition, he mentioned before that he had become a monk in Mount Wutai, so Sun Tu was almost certain, so he specially invited him to speak alone at the back.
But now, as Lu Zhishen reported his name directly, Sun Tu could finally be sure of his identity. He smiled and clasped his fists and said, "It turns out to be Master Zhishen. I'm disrespectful."
