Although it is true that Sun Tu has never practiced gun and stick kung fu in this era, his qualifications are not low after all. In addition, he has already figured out in martial arts that one method can be used to apply all methods. Therefore, under the guidance of Lu Zhishen, he only It took half a day to get a glimpse of this.
After having actual combat with those men, Sun Tu gained further understanding of this. Except for some exquisite moves that are not yet available for the time being, he already knows the techniques of splitting, sweeping, lifting, piercing, and looping in the stick technique, and can even fight with two or three men on a par.
This made Lu Zhishen very excited, and he praised him repeatedly: "Sanlang, you are indeed a prodigy in martial arts. When I learned gun and stick martial arts in the army, it took me a month or two to get a solid foundation, but you only practiced for half a day. There has been such progress.”
"Brother Lu is ridiculous. I only understand a little bit, but I am far from your match." Sun Tu also had a happy smile on his face and said humbly.
"Of course we are not my opponent now, but as long as you practice diligently, in a few months, you will be able to compete with me." Lu Zhishen said with great anticipation.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and Sun Tu was not invited to have dinner here because he missed Ya'er who was alone at home, so he said goodbye and left. Although I didn't practice calligraphy as much as before today, I gained more. After all, if I want to join the army in the future, I still need to master the gun and stick skills.
As he gained a deeper understanding of this era, Sun Tu knew that if a warrior wanted to gain a foothold in the military and make a difference, in addition to being an official, he must have the three skills of bow, horse, spear, stick, and fists and feet. Otherwise, It is difficult to get the soldiers below to obey sincerely. After all, the swinging stick he was good at was a bit unsightly, so he had to work harder on the use of the weapon.
Just thinking about how to allocate his time, Sun Tu soon returned to the alley where his home was in Chongmingfang. But then, he frowned, because he saw three people standing at the entrance of the alley. One of them was the businessman named Zhang Jian who had met him in the morning. Unexpectedly, he actually refused after being rejected by him. Don’t give up.
Thinking in his heart, Sun Turen had already arrived in front of them. That Zhang Jian had also seen him early, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "Master Sun, you are back, but you asked me to wait."
"Why are you here again? Didn't I make it clear to you before? I won't sell that fried chicken recipe." Sun Tu said unhappily.
Zhang Jian smiled and said: "Master Sun, everything is easy to discuss. I believe that everything in the world has its price. Although your formula is precious, it must have a price. I know, what I said before The number is too small, so I’ll give it higher this time. In addition to the five hundred taels of gold, I can also give you a house in Tokyo. As far as I know, you and your sister are just renting here. This house is inconvenient. How can anyone be reassured by a house of their own? In addition, I have also brought the gold. As long as you nod your head, Mr. Sun, I can hand it over to you now, whether it is the house deed or the gold. .”
This was said with great sincerity, and the price given was also extremely high. In Tokyo, a city with a population of one million, the price of a house is extremely high. Even if it cannot compare with those first-tier cities a thousand years later, it is still very expensive. And they are willing to deliver everything right away, which is enough to make many people excited.
But how could Sun Tu's character be comparable to that of ordinary people? Not to mention that he really couldn't come up with the so-called recipe, even if he did, he still had to consider the purpose behind all this. Is it necessary for them to pay such a high price for a fried chicken recipe
Yes, in the past two months, due to the launch of fried chicken and other fresh dishes, Liufangju's business has been so good that it can be described as booming, which has also had a considerable impact on other restaurants, but Sun Tu thinks this is just a Temporarily, once this fresh curiosity wears off, the restaurant's business will naturally fall back. By then, the business of other hotels will pick up again, and there will be no need to pay such a high price.
Even Sun Tu could understand this truth, but couldn't those smart hotel owners and businessmen see it? Therefore, in his opinion, the fact that this person came twice and gave a higher price each time seemed a bit abnormal.
I was wary, but couldn't think of a reason, so there was only one way to protect myself: "I accept Boss Zhang's kindness. But I feel that contentment is the most valuable thing. I really don't dare to do it with five hundred taels of gold." Accept it, I'm sorry that this matter is difficult to obey."
"Master Sun, you'd better think about it. This is a great opportunity to get rich..." Zhang Jian really didn't expect that the other party would refuse so simply, and he couldn't think of a more powerful statement for the moment.
But Sun Tu didn't think about it at all. He just gave him a hand and said, "I'm still in a hurry to go home. Boss Zhang, please go back too. There's no need to mention this matter again." After saying that, he ignored them and turned around. He walked out of the alley and headed towards his home.
"What a shameless boy, shopkeeper, otherwise we..." The attendants on the side were a little annoyed when they saw this. They rolled up their sleeves and wanted to step forward, but were stopped by Zhang Jian's eyes: "Let's go back first. . It's not up to you to decide how to deal with him." Boss Zhang, who had been smiling amiably just now, suddenly flashed a stern look on his face, which made the two followers dare not be presumptuous and could only be obedient.

Niulou Hotel is located in the southeast of Bianjing. It is a three-story building with exquisite decoration. It is one of the top ten hotels in the city among the 72 main hotels.
That's why it has such a weird name. It's just because when the restaurant was first built, it was just the clubhouse of the cattle dealers' guild. Later, it was rebuilt and transformed into what it is today. It became one of the seventy-two main restaurants. What does it have to do with Cowherd? It has nothing to do with it.
The Niu Lou Hotel has always been famous for its wine and food, especially its ability to supply a large amount of beef to its guests. It has won the hearts of some diners, and business is naturally very good. You must know that in today's era, cattle are the main tools for farming. The government has regulations to protect cattle and prohibit private citizens from slaughtering cattle and buying and selling beef. The fact that this hotel is famous for selling beef in Tokyo shows its deep background.
However, the business of Lai Niu Lou Hotel has plummeted in the past month. The number of guests coming here every day is less than 30% of the past, and the entire restaurant seems deserted. The reason for this is naturally related to the sudden rise of Liufangju, because compared with the main stores such as Fanlou and other projects, the Niulou Hotel only relies on the sale of wine and food, so it is naturally the most affected.
Today was just an ordinary day. There were not many customers in the restaurant at dusk, and the dozens of hired waiters were still waiting at the counter boredly. This made Zhang Jian, who had just come in from outside, twitch his eyelids and feel nervous.
After calming down, he walked up the stairs and soon came to the door of an elegantly decorated private room on the third floor. He said softly: "Master..."
"Come in and talk." A voice came out, and Zhang Jian cautiously entered the door. The tables inside are filled with our specialty dishes and famous wine "Wangsu". Two young men were sitting opposite each other, and one of them was Zhou Yun!
Sitting on the main seat opposite Zhou Yun was a handsome young man dressed in fine clothes. Behind him stood two burly men who looked very difficult to offend at first sight.
"How is it? Is the matter done?" The young man asked slowly while sipping the wine in his glass.
"No... no, why would Sun Tu refuse to sell the formula to Xiao Xiao?" When he replied, Zhang Jian couldn't help but shrink his neck and felt nervous. Even though he is the manager of Niulou Hotel, he is quite dignified on weekdays, but he is frightened in front of this young master, because he is actually a domestic slave in the other party's house.
When Zhou Yun heard this, he felt happy: "Brother Zhang, let me tell you, Sun Tu will not give in so easily. He has a huge appetite."
When Young Master Zhang heard what he said, there was even more annoyance in his eyes: "If you don't drink a toast, you'll have to drink as a fine. He's really brave."
At this time, a man behind him suddenly said: "Master, how about the young one leading someone to teach him a lesson and take the formula from him by the way?" These words fell into Zhou Yun's ears, and his His spirits suddenly lifted. Didn't he do all these things just to have such a result...
