The person who stopped them was a young man wearing a short shirt.

The man cupped his hands in front of Xu Ze and said, "Master, please stay."

Before Xu Ze could say anything, the boss of Sihailou scolded him: "Who are you and why are you blocking our way?"

"Leave quickly, don't affect our business."

"Shopkeeper Liu, I think you should know clearly why you asked this young master to stay."

"I don't know. If you stop us again, I will report it to the police."

The man said: "I'm not stopping you. You can go there at any time. I just want to ask you to stay and say a few words."

Shopkeeper Liu of Sihailou looked at Xu Ze: "Sir, let's ignore him. Let's go inside and talk."

Although the two parties only spoke a few words, Xu Ze probably had a guess in his mind.

The two of them are obviously fighting for themselves. Why are they fighting for themselves? There is only one possibility, and that is Wei Su.

Although he doesn't know why other people know about MSG, the emergence of competitors is a great benefit to him.

Thinking of this, Xu Ze suddenly smiled and said to Shopkeeper Liu: "There's no rush, no rush, it's just a few words and it won't take long. It doesn't hurt if we listen."

"I know this guy. He's just a local gangster. Don't ignore him. It's a waste of time."

"What Shopkeeper Liu said is wrong. I just have a different way of making a living from you. I don't rob or steal, so what's wrong?"

"Moreover, I was talking to this young master and not to you, but you kept obstructing me. Is it because I have a problem or because you have a guilty conscience?"

"You..., you are very sharp-tongued, but that doesn't change your status as a ruffian."

Shopkeeper Liu said again: "Sir, it's noon right now, the sun is high in the sky and it's very hot. Let's go inside and sit down to talk."

"Sir, wait a moment." At this moment, another voice sounded from behind.

Turning around, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a long gown.

The middle-aged man quickly came up behind Xu Ze, then cupped his hands and said, "My surname is Yu Mingxuan. Tian is the chief shopkeeper of Ju Dexuan. I have met the young master."

Xu Zegong cupped his hands and said, "Shopkeeper Yu is too polite. I don't know why shopkeeper Yu called me."

"I wonder if the young master has any flavoring on his hands."

Xu Ze nodded: "I still have a little bit of flavor."

Shopkeeper Liu on the side heard this and knew that he couldn't hide the flavor factor, so he felt helpless.

That day, he only remembered that the other party left the name "Xiao Yunyi". His employer checked the households in villages within a radius of 20 miles, but no village with the surname Xiao was found.

Moreover, I have been guarding the city gate for the past two days, but Xu Ze has not been seen.

I just came back twice today because I had something to do, but I ended up missing him.

Now it's better, it was intercepted by the opponent, and Xu Ze also admitted that it had the flavor element. It seems that it is not that easy to win the flavor element today.

At this time, shopkeeper Yu continued: "I wonder if the young master is interested in doing long-term business with Judexuan?"

"You want to buy MSG?"

"Young Master is really smart. He immediately understood what I was thinking."

"How about Master and I go back to Judexuan to have a detailed discussion?"

"I don't sell MSG." Xu Ze shook his head.

Shopkeeper Liu was overjoyed when he heard this, and then said: "Shopkeeper Yu, we have started cooperating with the young master a few days ago, and you are late."

However, before shopkeeper Yu could be happy for too long, Xu Ze said: "The two shopkeepers have misunderstood. I don't sell MSG, I want to sell the formula."

The two shopkeepers were stunned after hearing this, and suddenly they didn't understand what Xu Ze meant.

Shopkeeper Liu has personally tasted the effect of adding monosodium glutamate to dishes. No matter what dish, just adding a little bit will make the dish delicious.

Moreover, after living for so many years, this was the first time he saw this thing, which meant that this formula was unique.

As long as you have the formula in your hand, it's a cash cow.

Does this directly sell the cash cow?

Judging from the other party's performance in the past two days, it seems that he is not a short-sighted person.

So his head was full of questions and he couldn't figure out what Xu Ze meant.

The same is true for Shopkeeper Yu. Although he has never tried Weisu, judging from Sihailou's reaction that day and Shopkeeper Liu's nervous look, it is definitely a good thing.

I originally thought that even if I couldn't get it, I would never let my competitors get it, so I came all the way here.

It turned out that things were different from what he imagined.

"Everyone acted really fast. I'm late."

At this time, another old man wearing a long gown came with a waiter.

Then he cupped his hands to Xu Zegong and said, "Young master, you are polite. Fei Jianming, the shopkeeper of Wufu Inn, heard that your master is selling delicious vegetarian food, so I came here to have a look."

"I heard that the MSG seller is here? Can you give some to me?"

At this moment, a young man in brocade clothes appeared on the scene with two servants.

Seeing more and more people, Xu Ze felt happy and looked at Hu Jiaojiao proudly.

The more people compete, the higher the price is likely to be. It seems that I may win this bet.

However, Hu Jiaojiao's eyes were as calm as water, without a hint of polish, and she seemed not to care about winning or losing at all.

Seeing that Hu Jiaojiao didn't respond, Xu Ze suddenly felt like he was asking for trouble.

He shrugged and then said to the young master in Jinyi: "We don't sell the flavoring, we only sell the formula. But there is only one copy of the formula. You all seem to want it?"

"Then it will be sold through bidding, and the one with the highest price will get it. What do you think?"

Mr. Jinyi was also a little surprised by Xu Ze's decision, but if he could buy the formula, it would definitely be a cash cow, and he had no reason not to want it.

Then he said: "I have no objection."

After Mr. Jin Yi finished speaking, the three shopkeepers looked at each other and secretly said, "It's a pity."

As long-term competitors, they each know what the other is thinking with just one look.

At the same time, it was also seen that Xu Ze intended to raise the price.

Although these old foxes are competitors, sometimes it is not impossible for them to cooperate together for the sake of profit.

Originally, they wanted to find an excuse to delay the war, and then take the opportunity to draw up regulations.

It's a pity that Mr. Jinyi is still too young. He only cares about his immediate interests and directly agrees. They can't talk about the rest.

He had no choice but to nod his head to show that he had no objection.

At this time, shopkeeper Liu said again: "Then please give me the lowest price, sir."

Xu Ze smiled and said: "Don't worry, shopkeeper Liu has tried the effect of monosodium glutamate, but the others haven't tried it yet. Since we want to bid, we naturally have to let others try it, and then we can bid."

"Young Master is right, I am too impatient."

Shopkeeper Liu made an invitation gesture to the other people: "Everyone, please come in."

"Please~"

"Please~"

The group of people walked into the Sihai Tower, and the surrounding onlookers followed them unconsciously.
