Chapter 120 Get Out of Yanguan Town
After Tong Huaqiong and everyone had a good meal at Fengle Building, the moon was already at its zenith.
"Today is the first time. From now on, we will come to Fengle Building for a meal every month. Everyone should go back and rest early so as not to delay tomorrow's work." Tong Huaqiong said.
The meal time today is a bit long, so Tong Huaqiong will have to get up and prepare tomorrow morning.
Making snacks and catering is more difficult than daily work because the food ingredients need to be prepared in advance, otherwise you will miss the time and keep the customers waiting.
That would really delay business.
"It's too late today, so we might as well just stay in the shop for one night." Gu Taohua said.
She really didn't want to go back to Qinghe Bay. She got a headache when she thought about having to get up early and travel tomorrow.
"Okay." Tong Huaqiong didn't want to go back to Qinghe Bay, so after hearing what Gu Taohua said, she readily agreed.
We have just opened and there are not many things in the two warehouses, so people can sleep on the floor.
People can also live in the store.
However, not everyone is suitable to live in a shop.
Besides, there aren’t that many beddings in the shop.
Tong Huaqiong thought it would be better for her family to live in the shop, after all, they had to get up early.
There was no need for other people to live in the shop, especially Gu Xiaocao. If she didn't go back, Gu Guangkui and his wife would be worried and would come to the shop to look for her.
Tong Huaqiong told everyone about the arrangements of who would live in the shop and who would go back home and wait until dawn to go to work, and no one had any objection.
"Boss, don't worry. Qingyou and I will definitely send Gu Xiaocao home and watch her go home before returning to our house." Liu Qiaoyun knew that Tong Huaqiong must be worried about Gu Xiaocao, so she said.
"Okay. You can come together tomorrow morning." Tong Huaqiong was confident in the work done by Liu Qiaoyun and her husband.
"Aunt Tong, we will come early tomorrow morning." said Mrs. Hu.
Not everyone in the Gu family stayed. Gu Dahan was worried about the wheat in the fields, so he insisted on going back and coming back early the next morning.
After all, the wheat was about to be harvested, and he was worried that someone might steal the wheat at night, so he had to keep an eye on it personally.
Tong Huaqiong did not stop it.
After Gu Dahan and others returned to Qinghe Bay, Tong Huaqiong and other members of the Gu family also planned to rest.
"Who is at the door? I'm so scared." After washing her face, Gu Taohua went to splash water and was startled when she saw a drunk man squatting at the door.
Gu Dashu was responsible for the security of Taohua Desserts. As soon as he heard Gu Taohua's cry, he rushed out with a fork.
"Where is the person? Is it the little thief?" Gu Dashu yelled while drunk.
Taking a closer look in the moonlight, he saw that the person squatting against the wall was not someone else, but Manager Feng, the former owner of Sushiyuan.
"Okay, I was on guard against you all day and didn't see you, but you showed up at this time."
Gu Dashu was very angry. He had been watching the crowd all day, fearing that Manager Feng would do something bad.
The whole day went smoothly and he breathed a sigh of relief.
But unexpectedly, Shopkeeper Feng appeared outside Taohua Dessert in the dead of night.
Fortunately, I didn’t go back to Qinghewan today, otherwise Manager Feng would do something bad to the shop, such as arson, and all my mother’s efforts would be in vain.
Thinking of this, Gu Dashu kicked Manager Feng.
Gu Jingzhe, who ran out after hearing the news, and Gu Dashu together held down Manager Feng, gagged him, tied him up, and dragged him to the yard.
Tong Huaqiong, who was about to go to bed, heard the noise and got up and went to the yard. When she saw Manager Feng, she remembered that Feng Chuan was still locked in the woodshed.
Oh no, I was busy all day and forgot about Feng Chuan in the woodshed.
Gu Jingzhe said to Tong Huaqiong: "Don't worry, mother, Feng Chuan is fine."
Gu Jingzhe is still reliable.
While smiling at the aunts and grannies, Gu Jingzhe also took the time to feed Feng Chuan water and food.
He knew that Tong Huaqiong imprisoned Feng Chuan in order to threaten Manager Feng and ensure that Taohua Dessert opened smoothly, not to take Feng Chuan's life.
So even during such a busy opening day, he still hadn't forgotten Feng Chuan who was locked in the woodshed.
"You still haven't given up? You still want to go against me?" Tong Huaqiong said to Manager Feng with a sneer.
Shopkeeper Feng was whimpering in Gu Dashu's arms. He looked listless, but his eyes suddenly brightened when he heard that Feng Chuan was fine.
Tong Huaqiong caught the bright spot at this moment.
Tong Huaqiong thought that Manager Feng treated Feng Chuan better than she treated those bad bamboos.
No wonder Manager Feng thought he could threaten Gu Dashu by holding her life in his hands.
He was imitating his own ideas and thinking that everyone would risk their lives for his son.
Tong Huaqiong ordered Gu Dashu to tear the rag out of Manager Feng's mouth.
Shopkeeper Feng felt his breath go easier and asked hurriedly, "Where is Feng Chuan?"
Tong Huaqiong sighed. In just two days, Manager Feng went from being a respectable owner of a Sushi Garden to a down-and-out unemployed man.
"Shopkeeper Feng, Feng Chuan owes me money." Tong Huaqiong carried Feng Chuan's IOU with her. Chen Sufen stood beside her with a lamp. Tong Huaqiong unfolded the IOU so that Shopkeeper Feng could see it clearly.
"Didn't he mortgage the Sushiyuan shop to you?" asked Manager Feng.
Widow Tong was such a cruel person that she mortgaged her shop but still kept the IOU.
Tong Huaqiong smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Feng, are you naive or am I stupid? The owner of the Sushi Garden is surnamed Ma, not Feng. Feng Chuan mortgaged the shop to me. Do you think I can take it?"
"So I just acted like a good person and gave Ma Ming the deed and seal of Sushi Garden. Now Ma Ming still owes me a favor."
Shopkeeper Feng just found Tong Huaqiong's smile creepy.
He understood that the reason why his boss Ma Ming knew what Feng Chuan did was because Tong Huaqiong tipped him off, and the condition in exchange was to let him leave Sushiyuan.
He lost this round after all.
Shopkeeper Feng then discovered with horror that he now had nothing.
Feng Chuan owes Tong Huaqiong one thousand taels of gambling debt. Now he can't even pay ten taels of silver. Will Tong Huaqiong let Feng Chuan go?
"Now Feng Chuan owes you one thousand taels of silver. I can't pay it back for the time being. Please give me some time, Manager Tong." Manager Feng gritted his teeth and changed the way he addressed Tong Huaqiong from "Widow Tong" to Manager Tong.
No matter how unwilling he was, Manager Feng still bowed his head to Tong Huaqiong.
If he didn't bow his head, he couldn't guarantee that Tong Huaqiong would chop off Feng Chuan's hand. After all, this widow didn't even care about her own son, so how could she care about his nephew's hand.
"Shopkeeper Feng, now is not the time for you to bargain with me." Tong Huaqiong looked down at Shopkeeper Feng.
Is it because people have been in a high position for too long that they even act superior when asking for help?
Tong Huaqiong really didn't like Shopkeeper Feng's attitude.
"I can release Feng Chuan," Tong Huaqiong said, "but only if you take him out of Yanguan Town. Once you show up in Yanguan Town, don't blame me for being rude."
Tong Huaqiong raised the IOU.
She didn't want to push Feng Chuan into a desperate situation. If she pushed a gambler into a desperate situation, who knows what he would do.
But now there is a gambler and a mad dog in front of her, and she doesn't want to get involved with either.
The best outcome would be to send this cheap father and son out of Yanguan Town.
After all, her goal was not the 1,200 taels of silver, but to do business safely.
Tong Huaqiong ordered Gu Dashu to take Feng Chuan out of the woodshed.
Feng Chuan was terrified for the past three days.
No one beat him or tortured him, they just locked him up and didn't let him sleep. He felt like he was walking on the line between life and death.
At this time, Feng Chuan just wanted to sleep and leave the woodshed.
"Dad." When Feng Chuan saw Shopkeeper Feng, he changed his address to dad again from second uncle.
"Leave Yanguan Town and get out of here."
Tong Huaqiong waved the IOU in her hand and smiled gently at Shopkeeper Feng.
Shopkeeper Feng gritted his teeth, supported Feng Chuan, who was as limp as a crab, and limped out of Taohua Dessert.
"Mom, are we just going to let them go like this?" Gu Dashu asked unwillingly.
Tong Huaqiong said: "Otherwise, can we kill them? Even if you want them to die, it is not our turn to do it."
"Will Manager Feng take revenge on us?" Chen Sufen asked anxiously.
Tong Huaqiong smiled and said, "No."
Not only her, but also Ma Ming, did not want Manager Feng to appear in Yanguan Town or even Pingchuan County.
Compared with Tong Huaqiong, Shopkeeper Feng's biggest enemy now is his former employer. Shopkeeper Feng has done so many dirty things to make Sushiyuan the only pastry shop in Yanguan Town that it is hard to say that there was no hint from Ma Ming.
Ma Ming would definitely not let Shopkeeper Feng have an easy time. Shopkeeper Feng was already exhausted just from trying to avoid Ma Ming, so how could he have the energy to deal with Peach Blossom Desserts?
Besides, how could Shopkeeper Feng, who had left Sushi Garden, be able to deal with Taohua Desserts?
