C16 You're all rotten to the bone
I ran home like a wild animal and jumped into a vat full of cold water because I was afraid I would burst into tears, but I was a man, and I couldn't cry!
After soaking in the water for a long time, when I couldn't feel the cool water anymore, I came out and changed into a set of dry clothes. I started using my work to numb myself.
I made tofu again and again, comparing it with Old Liu's tofu, but the more I persisted, the more disappointed I became. When I made tofu, the taste was even worse than the tofu Old Liu made overnight.
I couldn't help but feel disappointed. I bitterly smiled as I muttered to myself, "Jiang Zai, it was all in vain for you to think so highly of yourself. You've failed at the bank yet again. You're just a piece of trash!"
I angrily smashed the table and flipped it over. The tofu on the table was scattered all over the floor, and I was extremely disappointed.
"No, I can't just admit defeat like this!" When I was only sixteen years old, I already occupied the tofu market in the town. Now that I have become an adult, how can I live longer and longer? I will definitely beat Fourth Elder Liu and produce tofu that is even better than Fourth Elder Liu's.
"Fourth Elder Liu, to be able to make such a good tofu, there must be some secret recipe. I have to think of a way to get it!" I narrowed my eyes. Stealing a teacher? The tofu that Liu Lao Si used to produce was quite ordinary. There must be a reason for him to become so good in such a short period of time. If I could figure out the reason behind it, that would be great.
Even though this method is not fair and square, but I, who have suffered since I was young, clearly know that if I can't win, I'll be done for.
I want to win, and I have to win. I want to be a big boss in the future, how can I fail the first time I start a business!
I rode my bike into the town. I wanted to squat down a bit, squat in front of Fourth Elder Liu, find Old Fourth Brother Liu's house, and find out how Old Fourth Liu made tofu.
It was a good thing that my hard work paid off. I finally got to Liu Ol'fourth, and I also saw many restaurants that used to be my clients. Now that they are all in the arms of Ol fourth Liu, I became even more determined to beat him.
Some restaurants even ordered goods twice a day, setting off a wave of tofu fever in Fourth Elder Liu. Many people praised Fourth Elder Liu's tofu craze, which was far more explosive than the one I had before. Before, even though I had a monopoly over the tofu market in the town, I still had not reached this level, but now, Old Fourth Elder Liu actually had such an achievement, which left me envious and envious.
I secretly followed Old Fourth Liu home and squatted outside his house. Old Fourth Liu was an old bachelor, and after coming home, he actually played with an inflatable doll. I couldn't help laughing bitterly. This isn't the fucking scene I wanted to watch.
But then again, Fourth Elder Liu is too tired to play with a child, and looks like he's going to die for nothing even if he were to give Fourth Elder Liu a woman. I thought of it maliciously, all in all, I just don't like what Fourth Elder Liu is doing right now.
I have been squatting outside Old Liu's house all this time, and I don't intend to sleep tonight. I want to see how Old Liu makes tofu.
Finally, it was around three in the morning and Liu was finally up to make tofu. My eyes immediately lit up as I leaned against the window and peeked out, peeking at every step of Old Liu's process from grinding the beans to filling the tofu bag, I carefully observed them, but what made me curious was that Old Liu's technique was simply trash in my eyes. Moreover, from the looks of it, it was impossible for him to produce such good tofu.
With this method, how could I possibly make good tofu? But I kept silent and continued to watch, and then I saw Old Fourth Liu sneaking around for a while, and I quickly lowered my head, not letting Old Fourth Liu find out, the next moment Old Fourth Liu's eyes lit up as he scooped up a ladle of water and poured it into the tofu. I was very surprised, it was almost done, I even poured water into the tofu, what the hell is this thing!
However, the next moment, I was extremely shocked. I didn't know what kind of water it was, but after pouring it in, Old Liu's tofu suddenly took shape and the fragrance was even stronger than what I ate before.
"How is this possible?" I looked at this scene dumbfoundedly. This doesn't make sense at all.
After Old Liu finished making the tofu, he yawned and took a nap. After about half an hour, he started to eat breakfast. Then, he pushed the tofu out to sell with a smile, looking especially pleased with himself.
When I was monopolizing the tofu market in the town, I could sell it for 500 to 600 yuan a day, so it became 10,000 yuan a month. In these two years, I also saved up 200,000 yuan, so if it was put in our village, I wouldn't be considered a pauper.
Old Liu had finally tasted the sweetness. It would be strange if he wasn't proud.
I secretly sneaked into Old Liu's house while he was away, I had the ability to pick locks, and I was very good at it. Although I was strong when I was young, I couldn't beat up those people in the village, so I learnt the ability to pick locks, and when they were asleep and were beating them up in the middle of the night, I managed to pry open Old Liu's door in three tries, and I also guaranteed that Old Liu wouldn't be able to tell that I was playing when the time came.
If I were to be honest, this doesn't conform to the standards of hygiene at all. It's true that I can make tofu, but I have my own small tofu workshop, so it definitely meets the standards. But what about Fourth Liu, he definitely doesn't have any.
After observing them, I found out that this wasn't pure water, but rather a paste of some kind. The color was milky white, and I couldn't smell anything, but I saw the entire process of Old Liu making tofu, so I knew that Old Liu's ability to make tofu was lacking, and the only reason why he was able to make tofu is because of the paste in the bucket!
After thinking for a while, I found an abandoned canister in Old Liu's house. After brushing it clean, I scooped up some of the water with paste and put it back into the canister.
He left quietly.
Now, I really want to find out what exactly is Liu Lao Si's paste like item, the best way is to test it out, but I don't have any acquaintances in the hospital, and under normal circumstances, the hospital wouldn't easily help me inspect something of unknown origin. Thinking about it here, I frowned.
Suddenly, I had an idea. I thought of a person. Zhou Ping was a nurse, and a nurse was half a doctor. Maybe Zhou Ping knew the people involved in the hospital.
Last night, Zhou Ping called me, but I didn't answer her call. Moreover, I remembered that yesterday, Zhou Ping had asked me to eat together with her for a movie, and I had even set her up. Now, if I went to find Zhou Ping for help, wouldn't that be a bit too shameless? I hesitated for a while, but in the end, I still decided to find Zhou Ping.
Originally, I wanted to give Zhou Ping a call, but I felt that it wasn't the case. I'll just stay in the town and go there directly, and apologise a bit on the way about the cancellation of the appointment yesterday.
I soon arrived at the clinic where Zhou Ping was working. Zhou Ping was busy giving injections to the patients. After seeing that she had finished, she walked up to me in embarrassment and whispered, "Zhou Ping!"
When Zhou Ping saw me, she suddenly beamed with joy. Her sweet dimples and two cute little canine teeth leaked out and gave me a beautiful smile that made me go into a daze. At this time, I suddenly realized that Zhou Ping was also very good-looking.
Seeing me staring straight at her, Zhou Ping secretly rejoiced. At the same time, she also looked at me boldly. She didn't look like an ordinary girl who shyly lowered her head after being stared at by a boy.
"Sorry, there was something I couldn't answer your phone call yesterday …!" I felt slightly guilty as I made up a lie against Zhou Ping, but Zhou Ping wasn't angry at all. Before I could finish, Zhou Ping waved her hand and said, "It's alright, you don't have to blame yourself!" "Oh right, did you come here specifically to see me today?" As Zhou Ping said that, she looked at me cutely with her pair of beautiful big eyes. It made me want to request her to do something, but I suddenly couldn't say it out loud. For a moment, I felt extremely embarrassed.
Seeing this, Zhou Ping's pair of shining eyes dimmed. "You must have something to talk to me about, right?"
I awkwardly nodded my head. At first, Zhou Ping was unhappy, but soon after, she smiled and said, "Tell me, what is it?"
Seeing Zhou Ping's joyful appearance, on the contrary, it made me feel a little guilty. Not only did Zhou Ping not blame me for fulfilling my promise, instead, she was willing to help me. I couldn't help but feel that Zhou Ping was a pretty good person.
"Aiya, tell me, why are you so bored?" Seeing that I didn't say anything, Zhou Ping reached out and patted my arm in a coquettish manner. Zhou Ping's coquettish appearance in my eyes was simply to cute to the extreme, and I couldn't help but take a few more glances, causing Zhou Ping to become bashful. I whispered, "You come out with me first. This person has too many eyes. I'll tell you in private!"
"What is it? Why is it so mysterious?" Only at this time did I take out the small canister from my bosom and give it to Zhou Ping. However, when Zhou Ping saw this small canister, her face suddenly flushed red, and like a pair of small electric claws, she slapped against my chest and coquettishly rebuked, "Aiya, you're so bad, you actually showed me that thing in the morning. Are you really bad?" This is bad! "
I'm bad, what happened to me? What's wrong with that? I looked at Zhou Ping in astonishment.
