Chapter 51

With bad intentions

Wu was also helpless.

But she was also nervous now. After all, the things in the basket were valuable.

The couple looked around nervously on the street.

The final target was the restaurant "Yelai Restaurant" which looked the most beautiful and grand in decoration. As soon as I got to the counter, I asked the fat shopkeeper if he wanted game.

The shopkeeper of Yuelai Restaurant is named Zhang, and he has a very rich appearance. As the most famous restaurant in the county, shopkeeper Zhang often encounters this kind of mud-legged guy who sells game door to door.

So when I heard the word "game", I flipped my abacus without raising my head and asked, "What's there?"

"Kirin meat." Si Shanhe replied in a low voice.

"Kirin meat?" Shopkeeper Zhang, who was doing his abacus, raised his head when he heard these three words and looked at Si Shanhe in surprise: "You mean you have Kirin meat?"

As he spoke, he looked at Si Shanhe and Wu up and down, his eyes full of suspicion.

As the shopkeeper of a large restaurant, he naturally knows about unicorn meat. He thinks that Jinzhou Yuelai Restaurant started its business because of the braised unicorn meat.

It's a pity that Jinzhou does not produce unicorns, and the place where unicorns are abundant in Dayong is basically circled by various princes and nobles. His family is the only one with some influence. It can get one or two unicorns every month, which stabilizes the reputation of Yuelai Restaurant.

.

However, that is an ingredient that only Yuelai Restaurant in Zhoucheng can get. As for a small county like Yang County, it is not qualified to get Kirin meat.

Because Kirin meat is expensive, shopkeeper Zhang knows that a dish of braised Kirin meat in Zhoucheng can be sold for a high price of eighty taels. If it is placed in the county town, how many people can afford it?

Shopkeeper Zhang has been at Yuelai Restaurant in Yangxian County for more than ten years and has never heard of Kirin here. Now someone suddenly said that Kirin meat is sold. Can he not be surprised?

"Yes, it's in my backpack." Si Shanhe didn't think there was anything wrong with Shopkeeper Zhang's suspicion. After all, this thing is rare, so it's normal not to believe it.

After receiving his affirmative answer, the shopkeeper couldn't help but cast his eyes towards the backpack on Si Shanhe's back, but the backpack was covered so tightly that he couldn't see what was inside.

"You two might as well go to the backyard with me to talk." The shopkeeper thought for a while and decided to take them to the backyard to have a look.

Si Shanhe and Wu nodded in agreement.

So the shopkeeper asked the waiter to watch at the counter, while he took Si Shanhe and his wife to the backyard.

As soon as they arrived at the backyard, the shopkeeper couldn't wait to let Si Shanhe open the backpack and take a look.

There was actually a unicorn inside. Although the unicorn had been skinned and only bones and flesh remained, shopkeeper Zhang still recognized it at a glance.

After confirming that Si Shanhe really had unicorn meat, shopkeeper Zhang's eyes began to twinkle. He tried his best to restrain his excitement and began to wonder where this unicorn came from.

The meat was very fresh, and it should not have been dead for a long time. In other words, this unicorn was most likely hunted locally in Yang County.

If he could find out where he hunted it and report it to the owner, wouldn't it be a great achievement?

Shopkeeper Zhang's thoughts were changing for a moment. His eyes when he looked at Si Shanhe suddenly became more cordial. He smiled at him and said, "My surname is Zhang. I wonder what your surname is, this brother?"

"My last name is..." Si Shanhe was about to answer honestly.

"My boss's surname is also Zhang!" Wu from the side immediately answered.

When Si Shanhe heard Wu's answer, he couldn't help but glance at her and remembered his aunt's instructions last night.

My aunt told him to listen to his wife in everything.

Si Shanhe then echoed: "Yes, my surname is Zhang too."

Shopkeeper Zhang has been a shopkeeper in a restaurant for ten years and is as smart as a monkey. You can't tell they are lying.
