Chapter 470 - Chapter 470 Homemade Recipes (2/2)

“What I hate most in my life are those who add all sorts of nonsensical things to food. However, this time I was indeed rash. That Fang fellow dared to play me for a fool,” Zhou Pinghu acknowledged.

With a long sigh, Zhou Pinghu took out a cookbook from his person.

“Although I have been living in seclusion all these years, my cooking skills have not fallen behind. This is a cookbook I compiled myself, and I have always been looking for a successor. It seems that you are the most suitable one!”

Chen Yu was somewhat surprised; he had not expected Zhou Pinghu to give him something so important.

A cookbook, especially one painstakingly compiled, is the lifeblood of every chef.

Giving it away clearly involved a great deal of inner struggle.

Chen Yu did not refuse and reached out with both hands to take it.

“In that case, I would be disrespectful to refuse.”

Zhou Pinghu patted Chen Yu on the shoulder, then turned and left, apparently heading to settle accounts with Fang Zhanbo.

The people present all came up to Chen Yu, showering him with words of admiration.

Chen Yu was spoken to the point of embarrassment.

Just then, Zhang Hu and Li Qiang squeezed through the crowd and hurried over.

“Mr. Chen, something has happened!”

Chen Yu’s brow furrowed without delay, and he quickly followed the two to the plaza near the marketplace.

The vast square was piled with a large number of old objects, and a robust middle-aged man was standing there as well.

His face was full of flesh, staring intently at the old objects laid out there.

“Mr. Chen, it’s this guy here. We ran into him on the road, but he claims that the old objects we loaded onto the vehicle were pre-ordered by him and demanded that we hand them all over to him.”

Chen Yu was briefly stunned. Apart from Zhang Hu and Li Qiang, it was unlikely that anyone from the outside knew about the existence of the town, nor could they have taken the objects out of it.

It was clear that this man was trying to rob them outright.

Chen Yu was about to go over and argue with this man when Qin Mingxue suddenly ran out.

“Wang Daming! What’s the matter with you? Why are you causing trouble here again? How many of my clients have you driven away, don’t you have any idea?”

Wang Daming laughed heartily, “Qin, this place of yours has never been quite proper to begin with. I am here to completely take it down!”

Qin Mingxue was beside herself with anger.

This underground market was a legacy passed down to her from the older generation.

When she first took over, out of respect for the old Qin family, many people from the underworld would patronize the business.

But as time went on, malice began to emerge.

Leaving aside individuals like Fang Zhanbo who came every so often to court and cause trouble, many others deliberately sought to cause disturbances, coming up with various reasons to create chaos here.

Wang Daming was one of them.

The Wang family and the Qin family were old friends, and this underground market was jointly managed by both families.

But later, the Wang family reneged and went their separate way, leaving the Qin family to run it alone.

A few years later, when the Wang family went bankrupt, they wanted to return and share in the profits of the underground market.

The Qin family could not possibly agree to such an impudent request.

Wang Daming then began to cause trouble here from time to time, sometimes even more than twenty times a month.

Although Qin Mingxue always had a strategy to cope, anyone would become annoyed over time.

“Wang Daming, I am giving you a chance to leave immediately! Otherwise, don’t blame me for not considering the past relationship between the Wang family and the Qin family!”
