Chapter 96 You Can Only Rely on Yourself

Chapter 96 You Can Only Rely on Yourself

"What else? Even if we are not given it, we will not die in this forest." Tong Huaqiong said.

"What will happen to our Peach Blossom Dessert business if we give out the recipe?" After experiencing a thrilling disaster, Gu Dashu asked worriedly.

Everyone knows that secret recipes are the most important asset of a food shop these days!

Now the recipe at home has been taken away by Sushiyuan, and I guess the Peach Blossom Dessert will disappear forever.

When Gu Dashu thought of this, he once again hated his past recklessness.

As a man, I can't even keep my mother's pastry recipe.

"Let's do what we have to do and continue to run our pastry shop." Tong Huaqiong said, as if she didn't care at all about giving out the pastry recipe.

Those pastry recipes are not important to Tong Huaqiong.

That is to say, information was closed in ancient times. But in modern times, every restaurant does not have taro crisps, pork floss dumplings, or its own signature product.

But even if they have the same pastries, the tastes are different.

What's more, this was an ancient time when there was no condensed milk or cream.

Her recipe clearly stated the formula for condensed milk and cream. As for whether Shopkeeper Feng could find it and extract it, it depended on his ability.

While Gu Taohua was stopping Gu Dashu's bleeding, she said angrily, "Our selling of cakes doesn't affect Sushiyuan in any way. Even if we don't sell them, there will be others who will. The Feng guy is really bullying us."

Tong Huaqiong sneered and said, "Before us, in the entire Yanguan Town, where else could there be other pastries except for the Sushi Garden?"

Gu Taohua was a naive little girl and had not realized this problem before.

Following Tong Huaqiong's words, I realized that there has been no other pastry shop in Yanguan Town except Sushiyuan for many years.

Compared to Gu Dashu's grief over losing Fangzi, Gu Taohua didn't feel much.

After all, she holds the golden finger that controls one-third of the raw materials for Peach Blossom Dessert.

As long as there is space, she believes Tong Huaqiong can come up with more pastry creations.

Just take the cake for Mrs. Huang’s birthday as an example. Even if Sushiyuan worked together, they couldn’t make it.

What worries Gu Taohua is that Taohua desserts can no longer be sold, but Shopkeeper Feng has clearly stated that he hopes Taohua desserts will disappear from Yanguan Town.

After this incident, Gu Taohua quickly realized that the reason why Sushiyuan was the monopoly of Yanguan Town was because Manager Feng relied on tough measures to suppress other shops.

"Mom, our Taohua Dessert can no longer operate in Yanguan Town?" Gu Taohua asked sadly.

Peach Blossom Desserts has already found a good shop! What a pity.

These days she had finally turned over a new leaf and was living a stable life with her mother, and she had also gained a sense of accomplishment in doing business, but now her life was cut short.

She felt that having space was useless and resources were useless if they couldn't be exchanged for money.

Although Manager Feng's threat was not stated explicitly, given the way he threatened with a knife today, who knows what he might do next time.

Is it possible to leave Yanguan Town and develop elsewhere?

I don't think it will work. There is a Sushi Garden in Yanguan Town, and there are local tyrants in other towns as well.

"Of course we have to run it. I will take over Ma Huateng's shop in three days. We were ambushed by Manager Feng this time, and we have seen his methods clearly. We can be on guard against them next time. But it is not enough to just be on guard. We also have to find Manager Feng's weaknesses and take the initiative to attack him so that he will never dare to touch Taohua Desserts again." Tong Huaqiong's eyes flashed with ruthlessness.

"It's not easy to find the weakness." said Gu Dashu.

"Everyone has weaknesses. I don't believe I can't find them." Tong Huaqiong said.

"Dashu, you go to town and keep an eye on him for the next two days."

Shopkeeper Feng got her prescription and he must be very happy these two days. When people are very happy, they are prone to have shortcomings.

Gu Dashu is eloquent and he had some drinking buddies in the town when he was a rookie. Maybe he can really find some weaknesses of Manager Feng.

"Okay." Gu Dashu agreed.

When Tong Huaqiong and others arrived at Qinghe Bay, it was already completely dark.

Liu Yue'e had already prepared dinner and was standing at the door, but she didn't see her mother-in-law and the man coming back for a long time. When she was feeling anxious, she saw the man's figure.

Tong Huaqiong brought Gu Dashu into the house. With the help of the oil lamp, Liu Yue'e discovered the wound on her man's neck and screamed in fright.

"Dashu, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with your neck?" Liu Yue'e looked distressed.

Tong Huaqiong went to her room, found iodine and anti-inflammatory ointment, and went to the main hall to disinfect Gu Dashu's wound and apply ointment.

Liu Yue'e learned from Gu Dashu and Gu Taohua what happened in the woods today. She was angry and distressed, and cursed Manager Feng and Su Shiyuan.

Gu Jingzhe had a serious look on his face.

This Sushi Garden is really going too far.

"Mom, there is something I forgot to tell you. The owner of Sushiyuan is a cousin of the Zheng family. Will Manager Feng deal with us because of the Zheng family's affairs?" Gu Jingzhe said with a guilty look on his face.

If he hadn't gotten into trouble with the Zheng family, my mother and my second brother and sister probably wouldn't have encountered such a thing.

Tong Huaqiong shook her head and said, "Regardless of whether there is something wrong with the Zheng family or not, as long as we have the idea of ​​opening a pastry shop, Sushiyuan will never let us go."

Gu Jingzhe nodded, mother was right.

When he was studying in the town, there were other pastry shops operating, but they would close after only a few days.

Looking at my own situation now, those shops that closed down hastily must have been forced to do so by Sushiyuan.

It's just too much of a lie.

"Mother, what should we do? Sushiyuan is a wealthy family. How can we continue to operate Taohua Dessert if they target it?" Liu Yue'e was shocked and changed the subject, "Didn't the young master of County Magistrate Liu's family call me a wet nurse? Why don't we go to County Magistrate Liu and try to get some help?"

What Liu Yue'e said is not wrong.

Holding on to County Magistrate Liu's thigh, even if the strong dragon cannot defeat the local snake of Sushiyuan, the local snake will still give County Magistrate Liu some face.

Tong Huaqiong shook her head.

The key point is that it has been so many days since Tong Huaqiong saved County Magistrate Liu's son, and County Magistrate Liu has not made any statement. Tong Huaqiong always feels that County Magistrate Liu's son's recognition of her as his godmother was just a show by the county magistrate's mother to show her affinity with the people.

She was not sure whether County Magistrate Liu would recognize her as a widow from the countryside.

What's more, the owner of Sushi Garden is a distant relative of the Zheng family. The Zheng family is a well-known family in Pingchuan County. In small places, various families are intertwined. Even County Magistrate Liu would probably not want to get involved in this matter.

Besides, if she really wanted to use County Magistrate Liu's connections, she wouldn't want to use them in Yanguan Town. That would be such a waste.

"It's better not to trouble County Magistrate Liu." Tong Huaqiong said.

"Why?" Gu Taohua and Gu Dashu asked in unison.

On the way, both of them had forgotten that Tong Huaqiong had saved the son of Magistrate Liu. Now, after Liu Yue'e's reminder, they suddenly understood.

There is a sense of joy that the peach blossom dessert has finally been saved.

Tong Huaqiong was unwilling to use such a relationship.

The brother and sister couldn't understand Tong Huaqiong's thoughts. Is now the time to maintain their integrity?

Others are going to kill Peach Blossom Dessert.

"We'll talk about the relationship with Magistrate Liu in Pingchuan County later." Tong Huaqiong said, "If I can't handle the Sushi Garden in Yanguan Town, how can our shop grow bigger and stronger in the future."

"If you rely on mountains, they will fall; if you rely on people, they will run away; only if you rely on yourself can you succeed."
