    In Dehengdang tea room.

    Zhang Yuanwai invited Zhao Shouzheng to take a seat, while he accompanied him from the side, while Zhao Hao and the goatee-bearded minister sat facing each other at the bottom.

    After watching the tea, Zhang Yuanwai gave him another blushing compliment.

    Fortunately, Zhao Shouzheng's ears were calloused by compliments in the past few days and he was not knocked unconscious by his ecstasy soup.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of courtesy Zhang Yuanwai, Zhao Shouzheng took a look at Zhao Hao.

    Zhao Hao took out a pawn ticket and a meeting ticket with a face value of four thousand taels from his sleeve.

    "Thanks to your care, the Han family has overcome the difficulties. Now that the half-year period has arrived, I came here to redeem the prescription."

    "He Laozun and his son are here in person? Xiao Ke is preparing to deliver it to the house in person." Zhang Yuanwai waved his hand, and the clerk took out the wooden box wrapped in layers of rice paper. It seemed that he had indeed been prepared.

    Zhang Yuanwai took the wooden box and held it in front of the father and son. He asked them to check that the rice paper was intact and that the seals, seals and signatures on it were all intact. Then he used scissors to twist open the rice paper and took out the wooden box inside.

    Then Zhao Shouzheng took out the key that Zhang Yuanwai had given him and opened the copper lock.

    Zhang Yuanwai was then able to open the wooden box, take out the secret recipe with both hands, prepare to carefully flatten the piece of paper, and return the two hands to their original owners.

    But halfway there, his movements froze.

    Zhang Yuanwai¡¯s eyes widened, and he suddenly raised the secret recipe, only to see a blank sheet of paper on top, with no words on it?

    "What's going on?!" Zhang Yuanwai was dumbfounded and looked at Chao Feng aside.

    Chao Feng was also shocked. He hurriedly came over to take a look, and he was also shocked immediately.

    "This this¡­¡­"

    Over there, Zhao Hao and his son also stood up. When they saw the white paper in Zhang Yuanwai's hand, they shouted together: "Where is my family's secret recipe?"

    "No one has touched this, how could it disappear?" Zhang Yuanwai looked at the Zhao family and his son with sweating profusely.

    "Yes, yes, you saw it just now. It is well sealed and has not been touched." Chao Feng also hurriedly explained.

    Zhao Hao, however, was unreasonable and said: "Your pawnshop is as cunning as a ghost and has many tricks. Who knows what tricks you can use to spoof my recipe!"

    "It's a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding. We at Deheng put integrity first and will never do such a thing" Zhang Yuanwai kept clarifying while carefully looking at the white paper, trying to see some clues.

    "Everyone says you've been fooled, but it turns out that you won't get better if you enter a pawn shop!" Zhao Hao said resolutely: "Let's go see the official!"

    Zhao Shouzheng was now very good at cooperating with his son, so he immediately stood up and said, "Let's meet at the county government office!"

    After saying that, the father and son left angrily.

    "No, no, stay here, let's talk if you have something to say" Zhang Yuanwai hurriedly caught up and bowed again and again.

    "What else is there to say?!" Zhao Hao shook the pawn ticket in his hand and sneered: "According to industry regulations, compensation will be ten times that of twenty-five thousand taels!"

    "This" Zhang Yuanwai suddenly became stunned. How is this possible?

    As soon as he was delayed, Gao Wu reached out and pushed him away.

    Seeing the father and son get into the car and drive away, Zhang Yuanwai still reached out to pull the carriage.

    Chao Feng on the side tugged at the corner of his clothes.  Zhang Yuanwai was stunned, stretched out his hand to catch something empty, and could only watch the carriage driving towards the Shangyuan County Yamen.

    "Master, we have been fooled." Chao Feng said solemnly from the side: "The words on this prescription are probably written with squid ink."

    "Oh, that must be the case!" Zhang Yuanwai suddenly slapped his forehead and said with regret on his face: "Why didn't you think of this at the time?"

    "If anyone else had used it, they would have been wary. But who would have thought that a nerd could learn to cheat?" Chao Feng also looked surprised and said, "Could it be that this is his first time as a jade pendant, and he is just putting on a show to numb us?"

    "That's probably the case." Zhang Yuanwai slapped his thigh vigorously and said regretfully: "Can a fool pass the examination? I think he is just pretending to be stupid, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger!"

    ??~~

    On the carriage, Zhao Shouzheng sneezed several times.

    He doesn¡¯t know that others have already imagined him as a seemingly loyal person with sinister intentions.  Still there, he asked Zhao Hao: "Son, my name is clearly signed on the rice paper, and the box has not been touched at all. Why has the secret recipe inside been stolen?"

    "It can fly." Zhao Hao replied with a smile.

    "Ah, so powerful?" Zhao Shouzheng stared at Zhao Hao with wide eyes. After a while, he patted his head and said with a smile, "You brat, if you dare to trick me, why don't you tell the truth now!"

    "Don't slap your head, you will become stupid." Zhao Hao hurriedly put his head in his hands to avoid Zhao Shouzheng's gentle slap.Then he told the truth: "Have you forgotten what this recipe was written in?"

    "Squid ink." Zhao Shouzheng was surprised when he heard this: "Could it be that the characters written with ink ink will fade?"

    "Yes, although there is no difference when you first write it, the handwriting will disappear after about a month," Zhao Hao replied with a smile: "It has been half a year now, and the gods can't tell that there are words on it."

    "My son is indeed very treacherous." Zhao Shouzheng suddenly realized, but he said a little strangely: "Then Yuan Zhang opens a pawn shop, doesn't he know about this kind of thing?"

    "He probably should know, but firstly he was so powerful that he was blinded, and secondly, it was because of his father's charisma." Zhao Hao praised seriously: "If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid this would not have been possible. But only my father - the surname  Zhang will not doubt it at all, for a gentleman like you."

    "Oh, haha, you kid is hurting me again!" Hearing this, Zhao Shouzheng reached out and grabbed Zhao Hao, clamped his neck under his armpits, and cursed with a smile: "It turns out that in the hearts of others, my father is a fool."

    "Is father really stupid?" Zhao Hao asked.

    "I don't think I'm stupid" Zhao Shouzheng said proudly: "At best, it can only be regarded as an unconventional thing."

    "Then let others think so." Zhao Hao broke away from his father's clutches, straightened his clothes and said, "Anyway, you won't lose a piece of meat, and there are unexpected benefits."

    "Hmm." Zhao Shouzheng rubbed his chin and said with his newly grown short beard: "We can't care what other people think, just do whatever you want."

    ???????? He has never been successful in the imperial examination, so in order to look younger, he shaves every day, how can he dare to grow a beard?

    Now that I have become a master of civil engineering, I finally dare to let my beard grow freely

    "It's just that now that my father has become a master of civil affairs, it will not be so easy to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger." Zhao Hao shook his head with regret on his face.

    "Then let's pretend to be tigers and eat pigs!" Zhao Shouzheng slapped his thigh proudly and said, "First eat the pig named Zhang to vent the hatred in my heart!"

    "After my father won the election, his confidence really increased." Zhao Hao gave a thumbs up.

    Who would have thought that Zhao Shouzheng's true colors would appear the next moment, and he immediately became a little unsure and asked: "Son, the man named Zhang is backed by Nanhube, so we won't hurt his teeth, right?"

    "Father, don't worry," Zhao Hao said confidently: "What we are fighting is not a lawsuit, what we are fighting is loneliness"

    As he said this, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Shouzheng.
