Save the Bachelor of Heaven

  Chapter 2241 2243【Lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot】

   By eleven o'clock, the lunch market is coming.

   "Xiao Guo, come here~" Tong Xiangyu saw that there were nearly twice as many guests queuing up opposite as compared to his own, so he quickly called Guo Furong to the front and whispered a few words.

  Guo Furong smiled when she heard this, came to the door of the inn, and shouted loudly, "Tongfu Inn has a big reward, each distinguished guest will get two appetizers and a pot of burning knives."

  Hearing her yell, the guests cheered and ran to Tongfu Inn from Yihong Building opposite.

   "The hundred-year-old Yihonglou wine is out of the cellar, welcome to taste it for free." The lobby manager of the opposite Yihonglou immediately shouted **** for tat.

  Hearing her shout, Hulala, the guests ran to the opposite side again.

   "A plate of charcoal-grilled tenderloin for each distinguished guest." Seeing this, Tong Xiangyu shouted unceremoniously. She doesn't want to be compared if she doesn't compete for steamed buns.

   "I'll give each distinguished guest eight deep-fried prawns." The other party sneered, and continued to add more words.

   "I will give you one stewed elbow and two liang of Pu'er." Tong Xiangyu also added more layers.

   "I'll give you two Changbaishan bear paws." The lobby manager of Yihong Building also shouted again, continuing to push past Tongfu Inn.

   Seeing that Yihonglou gave better things, the diners naturally cheered. Even the diners who were eating at the Tongfu Inn ran over in a hurry when they heard that bear paws were being delivered from the opposite side.

   "Each person will be given a big red envelope." Seeing this, Tong Xiangyu was so angry that his orifices were filled with hatred, and finally went all out.

   Hearing that there is money to give away, a lot of diners came over again.

   "Twenty taels of silver per person will be given as a gift." Yihonglou pressed against Tongfu Inn again.

  Hearing that there were twenty taels of silver to give away, in an instant, all the pedestrians on the street, those who ate and those who did not, all flocked to Yihonglou.

  Even Butou Xing, who was originally in charge of maintaining order, rushed in immediately with Yan Xiaoliu.

  Tong Xiangyu saw that there was no one on the street. The shop opposite was full of people, but my own side was deserted, so I couldn't help feeling very sad, so I closed the shop altogether, out of sight and out of mind.

  …

  Xiang Nan was originally busy in the kitchen, cooking according to the orders of the guests.

   But then Lao Bai came in and said that the customer canceled all the orders, so that he didn't have to work anymore.

  Xiang Nan couldn't help being startled, "No way, all the guests have left, so there's no one left?"

  Old Bai nodded, "The other side is really ruthless. In order to solicit customers, a customer gave twenty taels of silver. Who would not want to go after hearing that."

  Xiang Nan blinked, "No way?! Isn't she afraid of going bankrupt? Even if she has a lot of money, she can't help giving it away like this, right?"

   Qixia Town is a big town with a population of over 3,000 people. Even if half of the people went to collect the money, Yihonglou would still get 30,000 taels of silver. Don't say that Sai Diaochan couldn't afford so much money, even if she could, how many years would it take to earn back the 30,000 taels?

   "Who knows, maybe just the top few." Bai Zhantang thought for a while and said, to be honest, he didn't understand why Yihonglou was so generous.

  Xiang Nan knew that Yihonglou was likely to repeat the same mistakes and go bankrupt again because of vicious bidding with Tong Xiangyu. But that's none of his business. To be honest, he wished that Yihonglou would collapse sooner.

   After all, Sai Diaochan and Xiao Cuier are not good people.

  …

  Xiang Nan immediately put down the spatula, ran to the opposite side to take a look, and saw that Yihonglou had become a mess.

  The common people flocked to loot, robbing money, decorations, maidservants, tables and chairs... There is really nothing to rob, even doors, windows, rice, noodles, oil, just like bandits.

   "The shopkeeper, Lao Bai, Xiucai, Xiao Guo, come out and see, there is chaos on the other side." Xiang Nan shouted quickly, such a scene is not easy to see, of course, we must share it with everyone.

   Hearing his shout, everyone opened the door and took a look, and sure enough, they saw that the opposite door had been robbed to pieces.

  People, you fight over each other, and **** everything you can.

  The opposite door was originally magnificently decorated, but now there are no doors, windows, tables and chairs, and it looks like a broken tile kiln.

  Seeing this scene, everyone was a little shocked.

   "Old Xing, what's the matter?" Tong shopkeeper saw Xing Butou and Yan Xiaoliu's master and apprentice in the crowd, and hurriedly called out curiously and asked.

   "I still don't understand it, it was emptied out." Xing Butou grinned.

   "Why is this happening?" Shopkeeper Tong asked in bewilderment.

   "If you give something, you can give it away. You can give it away. In the end, if you don't have to give it away, you just grab it." Xing Butou explained.

   "Then why don't you care?" Guo Furong asked in surprise.

   "I'm busy collecting red envelopes." Catcher Xing said with a smile, "Twenty taels of silver, don't you want to give it to you for nothing?"

  When everyone heard this, they couldn't laugh or cry.

   I didn't expect such a big store to go bankrupt like this. It's really beyond everyone's expectations.

  …

  At this moment, two servants from the yamen approached, "Master Li, the county magistrate is here to invite you."

  Xiang Nan heard this, and quickly asked, "You two tolerance brothers, what does my uncle want from me?"

   "The magistrate is here to ask you a question." The two tolerance officers said again.

  Xiang Nan was taken aback, why did the magistrate find him? Could it be that even the magistrate knew about the liquidation of Heifengzhai?

  Thinking of this, he hurried to follow the tolerance.

   When I came to the Yamen, I saw the magistrate sitting in the lobby. The county magistrate of Lou stood in the hall to hear the trial, and Sai Diaochan and Xiaocui, master and servant, also knelt in the hall.

  Seeing this, Xiang Nan became more and more puzzled, but he still stepped forward to salute, "Li Xiulian, a grassroots man, pays homage to the magistrate."

   "Li Xiulian, I want to ask you, now Sai Diaochan and Xiaocui are suing you for accepting a huge amount of bribes in the name of Lou Zhi County under the guise of a wedding, can you plead guilty?" the prefect asked in a deep voice.

  Xiang Nan was taken aback when he heard it.

  He has long been suspicious, because Sai Diaochan is so clever, he would never commit such a stupid thing, giving each guest twenty taels of silver, and there is no limit on the number of people.

  When Gan Qingyi delivered the special gift to the Red House, she was not there at all, but went to the government office to file a complaint.

   "My lord, there is absolutely no such thing. The villain has been wronged. Please look into it." Xiang Nan kowtowed quickly, and then told the county government that he donated all the gift money to help the people's livelihood in Qixia Town.

   "The villain said this in front of all the guests, and the people of Qixia Town can all testify for the villain." Xiang Nan said again.

  Sai Diaochan and Xiaocui couldn't help being taken aback when they heard this.

  They only know that Xiang Nan takes money, but they really don't know about donations. Hearing what Xiang Nan said with a nose and eyes, the two of them couldn't help being a little skeptical.

   "Since you said that you donated all the money to the county government, do you have evidence?" The magistrate asked again.

   "There is a receipt from the county government treasury, and it is hidden at home. You can send someone to fetch it." Xiang Nan said immediately.

  The magistrate nodded, and immediately sent someone to collect the receipt, and invited the treasurer.

   After a while, the receipt was obtained, and the treasurer also came to the lobby.

  The magistrate checked the receipt, and it was not bad, so he asked the treasurer if there was any such thing.

  The treasurer handed over the account books, "I would like to report to the magistrate, that this is indeed the case, and there are account books to prove it."

  After seeing it, the magistrate found it to be exactly the same, and then he slapped the gavel and angrily scolded Sai Diaochan, "Bold and cunning woman, what else do you have to say about falsely accusing the imperial court?"
