I am the county magistrate in Daming

Sure enough, when it opened on the second day, the county magistrate came to the door with a group of arresters, and surrounded the Fushou Hall with no air.

The people who were still eating inside saw that their posture was wrong, slapped the copper plate on the table and fled in despair. When they reached the door, they would be stopped by the arresters and searched carefully before they would let them go.

The manager cheered up and came out from inside, [-]% pleasing and [-]% nervous, walked to the door and saluted the county magistrate: "I don't know if my lord is coming, but the Fushou Hall is far away to welcome you. Please come in quickly, my lord, and I will let you in the back." Prepare a table of good food and wine."

"No need." The county magistrate waved his hand, not affected by the temptation of the steward, "The county government received a complaint, saying that your Fushoutang used dead rat meat to pass off mutton as second-best, and came here to investigate."

The steward's expression turned serious, and he said, "My lord, you have wronged us too much. The Fushoutang has been in Chongming County for generations, and it has always been operated with integrity. There will never be such a thing. Please be aware of it, my lord."

"Is there any, you will find out after checking." The county magistrate rolled his eyes to the sky, and without even looking at the supervisor, he gestured to the people behind him and said, "Search for me!"

The chrysalis of the swift bee enters, like a locust passing through.They wantonly destroyed the tables and chairs, and swept all the food on the table to the ground together with the bowls and plates, and the vegetable soup and oil dripped all over the floor.

"Officer! Officer!" The steward ran left and right, protecting several plates.

The arrester got Yao Jingdao's order, and at this time he was even more domineering, completely ignoring the manager.One of them pushed the steward so hard that the steward slipped and fell directly to the ground.

"You can't do it if you want to disobey!" The arresting officer who pushed the person not only showed no remorse, but also uttered malicious words.

"If you can't find it in the front, go to the back kitchen to search." The county magistrate entered the door in a good mood, walked around the juice all over the place in disgust, and directed the arresters with arrogance.

"My lord!" The steward wanted to get up, but felt a hand on his shoulder.

The boss squatted down, squeezed the steward's shoulders, and shook his head at him.

"Boss..." The steward's mouth was dry and he couldn't say anything, and his heart was even more bitter.

"Since your lord said that the small shop is a shoddy shop, please ask your lord to check." The boss stood up and led the people to the back kitchen graciously.

The county magistrate looked at the calm and calm expression of the boss, not flustered at all, and felt even more angry in his heart.You don't know how to repent when you're about to die, even if you kneel down and beg for mercy from Grandpa, it's useless now.

"Give me a good search!"

When the people on the street heard the news, they all gathered at the entrance of Fushou Hall, pointing at the plaque that was smashed to pieces by the arresters.

"Master Xian Cheng said that Fu Shoutang uses rat meat to cook for people!"

"Scary! It's so harmful? I won't come to Fushou Tang to eat in the future. It's the time-honored brand that loses money, and it's really rotten in this generation."

Someone next to him was not happy, and retorted: "The price of Fushoutang has always been fair, and the portions of the dishes are also sufficient. It is much better than Penglai Restaurant. I don't believe in rat meat."

"If you don't believe me, go eat it, haha."

"That's right, if you think about it, you can't afford the food at Penglai Tower, so you can only come to this poor Fushoutang." A man who looked like a servant suddenly squeezed in and said.

The owner of Penglai Building saw the disaster at Fushou Hall, so he came here to watch the fun, but he was upset when he heard such a conversation, so he sent his servants to mock the man.

Fu Shou Tang has been keeping down the price, which hasn't changed for decades, and the business of his Penglai Building is always not very good, and he is said to be "more money but less money". How can he swallow this breath.This time, he sued Fu Shoutang to the county government with a complaint. He didn't expect to get any results, but now he was pleasantly surprised.

"Eat it!" The man blushed and screamed loudly, unbearable to be humiliated.

The policeman noticed the situation here and came over with a knife to check.

"Officer, some people here say that he likes to eat rat meat, and he wants to test the poison himself." The boy said with a smile.

"Oh?"

"I'm not! I didn't!" The man never expected that he would be confused by these people just to say a word for Fu Shoutang.

Both the policeman and the county magistrate got hints from Yao Jingdao that regardless of whether Fushoutang was guilty or not, they had to stir up trouble.Someone delivered it to the door in person, and of course the policeman would not let go of this good opportunity.

"Okay, you follow Ben and go in and try the dishes."

The young man was dragged into the Fushou Hall by force. He wanted to struggle, but the police cut his leg with a scabbard, and he couldn't move.

"Who is this?" The county magistrate frowned.

"My lord, this person insists that Fu Shoutang is innocent, and he is willing to try the dishes with his own body." The catcher replied casually.

"My lord, it's clear! The little one didn't say such a thing, it's all from the outside!" The young man pointed back angrily, dumbfounded.There was nowhere outside the door the figure of the boy just now.

The county magistrate stroked the mustache on his chin, and said: "Since you said so, then the official will reluctantly agree to let you try the dishes. If you are still alive after eating the dishes, the official will admit that Fushoutang is innocent; if you die It's...that's just self-inflicted."

Ordinary people have never experienced "life is not life or death is not death", and they were frightened by the words of the county magistrate, crying with tears streaming down their faces, "Adults forgive the sin, but the little ones speak freely and don't know good or bad, please forgive me."

"Oh?" The county magistrate raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you say that the food at Fushoutang is fine, why do you want me to spare your life? I have a conscience, I don't want your life."

Regardless of the young man's struggle, the county magistrate arrested a chef from Fu Shoutang and ordered him to cook a random meat dish and serve it.The chef was trembling, not daring to disobey his orders, and quickly cut up a plate of braised pork and brought it out.

In front of Wu Yaozu, the county magistrate took out a small bag from his bosom and poured a little white powder on the stewed meat dish.At the end, he smiled at Wu Yaozu, as if he was not afraid of Wu Yaozu at all.

The stewed meat dishes were put on the table and pushed in front of the young man who had already been shaken to pieces.

"Eat." The policeman quickly slapped the chopsticks on the table.

The young man shook his chopsticks several times before picking up the chopsticks, but he couldn't pick up a piece of meat.The county magistrate looked annoyed and said, "Come here, stuff him."

"No!" The young man exclaimed, "Grass people eat, grass people eat."

Wu Yaozu stood at the end with cold eyes, watching helplessly as the young man picked up the top piece of beef and was about to put it into his mouth.

"Wait a minute!"

The steward looked sideways at the boss who spoke unexpectedly.

"I, Fu Shou Tang, plead guilty."

He didn't know what the county magistrate poured into the dish, let alone expose him.If it's just salt or icing sugar, the county magistrate is likely to beat him up.But he didn't dare to bet that those powders were really not poison.He couldn't watch others die, let alone someone who had good intentions at first and was willing to speak for them.

The county magistrate clapped his hands and let the young man be released. He said: "It should have been like this a long time ago. If you have been stubborn for so long, the crime will be increased. Come here! Take Wu Yaozu and the steward back to me!"

Xiao Qi watched the whole process from outside, while Xiao San was lurking upstairs and saw the action of the magistrate administering the medicine.In the middle of the night, when Mu Qingtian was asleep, they sneaked into the inn to report to Zhu Jingshou.

"What?" Zhu Jingshou lowered his voice, "The boss and stewards of Fushoutang were all sent to the county government office? Why?"

Xiao Qi detailed what he saw one by one, and Xiao San added what he saw on the way.

"The county government wants to negotiate business with Fushoutang and sell him peppers. As a result, the boss of Fushoutang refused, which is why today's disaster happened."

Zhu Jingshou nodded.He was there when Mu Qingtian signed the contract with the owner of Fushoutang. Mu Qingtian asked Fushoutang to only buy his peppers, and based on this, he sold the recipe at a price of 50 taels.

It seems that the boss of Fu Shou Tang is indeed a person who values ​​faith and righteousness.

"In the entire Suzhou Prefecture, and even the entire Ming Dynasty, only Mu Qingtian grows peppers. How can the Chongming County Government get them?" Zhu Jingshou pondered.

Xiao Qi and Xiao San didn't speak, the three people present already knew it well.

"My lord, do you need to send someone to Zi Mingli for protection?" Xiao San asked.

Zhu Jingshou waved his hand and said, "No need. Mu Qingtian is a smart person, it's impossible not to understand the principle of 'big trees attract wind'."

Thinking of this, he suddenly became curious, whether Mu Qingtian had expected such a result a long time ago, and had already prepared a complete response.

"Take care of the county government office in Chongming County, and don't let the boss and stewards of Fushoutang get hurt."

These two people couldn't get into his eyes, but they are Mu Qingtian's current partners, if something happens, Mu Qingtian's painstaking efforts for so long will be in vain.

"Yes, this subordinate will make arrangements now." Xiao Qi pushed open the window and was about to turn over, but she walked too hastily, she didn't notice her feet, and fell on Xiao San.

"Tingyun... do you have any tea here?"

Suddenly, Mu Qingtian rubbed his eyes and pushed the door open.

"...Sorry, you guys continue." Mu Qingtian closed his eyes and closed the door.

Zhu Jingshou looked at the two arhats stacked on the ground with a black line on his face, and said in a trembling voice, "Not yet!"

"Oh oh oh!" Xiao Qi got up in a hurry, missing Xiao San's flashing dark eyes.

Zhu Jingshou didn't expect that Mu Qingtian would wake up and look for him at this time. Fortunately, he took off his mask in advance, otherwise he really couldn't tell.

After driving Xiao Qi and Xiao San away, Zhu Jingshou sighed, picked up the teapot in the room, walked to the door of Mu Qingtian's room, knocked on the door and said, "Master, are you still there?"

"Which one?"

"I was so disturbed just now, please forgive me, young master."

"It's okay." Mu Qingtian rolled over and wrapped her quilt tightly, not wanting to get involved with the pervert.

After waiting for a while, Mu Qingtian came to open the door, Zhu Jingshou said again: "Didn't the young master just look for tea? I brewed a pot of new tea, and I have the right to apologize."

Mu Qingtian smashed it, fucked it until his mouth was peeling, after thinking twice, he climbed out of bed and opened the door after getting dressed.

"My lord, won't you invite me in?" Zhu Jingshou said with a smile as he held down the door that Mu Qingtian was about to close.

"Please come in."

This was the first time he faced Mu Qingtian with his real identity, King Qing, who was fearless, was even a little nervous at this moment.

After drinking a few cups of tea, Mu Qingtian was almost awake.He looked at the handsome man in front of him curiously, and asked, "Uh, my lord, do you know where the man who lives next door has gone?"

Zhu Jingshou frowned.He doesn't like Mu Qingtian's address and self-proclaimed him in his current capacity, and he feels very alienated.

"My lord, don't worry, he's just out on business. Xiaosan is my subordinate. I met you two this morning, so I made some inquiries and borrowed the room."

Mu Qingtian heaved a sigh of relief, he thought Wu Tingyun was "beheaded by E".

"Oh yes." Mu Qingtian took out a bit of broken silver from his purse, "Young Master, please eat a lot this morning, I am very grateful. Since Young Master is your subordinate, a small thank you is not a respect."

Zhu Jingshou smiled wryly in his heart, it seemed that Mu Qingtian didn't want anything to do with him at all.

"Since you are so polite, I will also give you a small gift." Zhu Jingshou untied a small round jade pendant from his waist, "If you are in trouble in the future, you can go to Shuntian Mansion to find me."

Too many words and too many mistakes, Zhu Jingshou was afraid that Mu Qingtian would see something if he stayed any longer, so he took the money and bid farewell to him.

Mu Qingtian held the jade pendant in his hand in a daze.

Shun, Shuntian Mansion! ! !

He carefully put the jade pendant back into his arms, but felt uneasy, asked Xiaoer for a needle, thread and scissors, cut open the underwear on his chest, sewed a small bag on his heart, and stuck the jade pendant in front of his heart.

This handsome guy dared to say "Take the jade pendant and go to Shuntian Mansion", which proves that his identity must not be simple!Mu Qingtian shed tears of happiness. After struggling for so long, he finally hugged his thigh and got the first "free/death/gold/card".

The next morning he went to the next door and knocked on the door, and the person who came out was Wu Tingyun again.

"Tingyun, where did you go last night?" Mu Qingtian asked tentatively.

Wu Tingyun knew that he would ask a long time ago, first he pretended to be surprised, and then answered truthfully: "I heard that there was an accident in Fushoutang, so I went to investigate at night."

"Sure enough." Mu Qingtian wasn't surprised at all, "Is the boss and the steward all right?"

Wu Tingyun shook his head, and said: "I heard from others that the county magistrate led people to riot at Fushoutang yesterday, arresting all the bosses and stewards, and sealing up Fushoutang."

"Why seal it?"

"Shooting second-best, selling rat meat."

Mu Qingtian snorted disdainfully.After so many years of social development, how come there is no progress at all?

"Your Excellency already knew?" Wu Tingyun asked.

"Fu Shoutang and I have done things openly and aboveboard. Zhang Fu can see it, and other restaurants in Chongming County can also see it. The big tree attracts the wind, the tree falls and the monkeys scatter, and the wall falls and everyone pushes it. It is not difficult to guess." Mu Qingtian said.

Wu Tingyun raised his eyebrows, admiring Mu Qingtian even more.He then asked: "My lord, what should we do next?"

I saw Mu Qingtian smiled a little, with a cunning that didn't fit his character on his innocent face.

"It depends on whether the wind can keep blowing. They copied Fu Shou Tang, and they must have obtained peppers. As long as someone cooks with peppers, we will know who is behind the scenes and colluded with the county government."

Zhang Fu promised to share with the county government, but there is only red gold and no restaurant to do it, so it is useless.Fushoutang was unwilling to cooperate, so Yao Jingdao took action to destroy Fushoutang, and turned around to cooperate with Penglailou, who voluntarily surrendered.

Penglailou bought red gold from Yao Jingdao, and if he found a treasure, he immediately asked the chef to add it to the dishes and spread the word.

Fu Shou Tang was copied, so no one will make spicy lagu.People in Chongming County are greedy and regretful, and they shake their heads and sigh every time they pass by a closed shop.

The chefs of Fu Shoutang are all relatives of Wu Yaozu's clan. They are absolutely loyal to Wu Yaozu and vow to live and die with Fu Shoutang.Penglai Lou invited them, but all of them refused.The fault is that Xiancheng's trick is really bad, saying that Fushoutang uses rat meat, isn't it just slapping their cooks in the face?

Penglailou couldn't wait to play the banner of "spicy lagu" and it really attracted many greedy people.But many people look at the price, but lose interest in eating it.

Fu Shoutang's pricing is very affordable, a small dish of spicy la crayfish costs only [-] renminbi, and a large dish of [-] renminbi.The newly launched spicy crayfish in Penglailou costs two yuan for a small plate, and the portion is much smaller than the original small portion of Fu Shou Tang, only four or five crayfish.

"Xiao Er, your spicy la crayfish are too expensive." A diner complained.

Unexpectedly, the waiter rolled his eyes at the diners, and said in a very aggressive tone, "If you like food, don't order it if you don't have money. Who do you think this dish is for?"

After finishing speaking, he also looked at the people at this table with disgust.

"Poor ghost."

The diner was furious, stood up and pointed at Xiao Er's nose and cursed, and finally walked away.The waiter didn't care, and wiped the table they had just made with the white cloth on his shoulders, muttering: "Sure enough, he is a poor ghost, and he doesn't order a single dish."

When other diners saw Penglailou's attitude and looked at the dishes on the table, they immediately felt dull and lost their appetite.

The other mistresses took the opportunity to report to the boss of Penglailou, and wanted to give this nasty mistress some shoes to wear.Who would have thought that the owner of Penglailou would appreciate it greatly after hearing this, saying: "My Penglailou is not designed to entertain these poor ghosts. If you have settled down, you should go to Fushoutang to eat."

"Oh! Look at my memory, the Fushou Hall is long gone. Haha, everyone should eat what they want."

Before two days of good weather, there was a big problem in Penglai Building.

Those diners who are relatively wealthy and greedy endured high prices to buy the spicy lagu in Penglailou.Fu Shoutang's laguchi has a special taste in the choking and spicy taste, and it makes people want to stop when it stops on the tip of the tongue.However, the lagu in Penglailou is only spicy, and you can feel your mouth, tongue, throat and stomach burning when you eat it.On the day after eating, several people ran away.

Some diners from other places came here especially because they didn't know about Fushoutang, so they went to Penglailou following the name of "Spicy Lagu", but they were full of anger.

"What's a 'signature', what's a 'delicious in the world', I'm bah!"

For a while, the reputation of Mala Lagu had plummeted.

The boss of Penglai Building took his time and felt that these people had cheap mouths.There are diners coming here every day, and the water flow of Penglai Building has doubled several times this month.He is stupid, but it doesn't mean that Yao Jingdao is also like him.On the day Penglailou launched the spicy lagu, it sent a copy to the county government to honor the adults, but Yao Jingdao dropped his chopsticks after only one bite.

Seeing that something was wrong, Zhang Fu quickly picked up his chopsticks.

The two drank several cups of tea before suppressing the spicy taste in their mouths. Zhang Fu shook his head repeatedly and said, "It's not this taste."

The chef of Fu Shou Tang heard the news and immediately guessed the reason.The method of making spicy lagu is handed over by Wu Yaozu. There is no recipe, it is all based on feeling.Looking at it now, maybe there is indeed a recipe for this dish, but the boss did it on purpose to prevent the secret recipe from being leaked.

"Is Wu Wang there?"

Several chefs were still thinking about what to do next when suddenly there was a knock on the door.Wu Wang, who was called by his name, became nervous and made a "shut up" gesture to everyone.

Penglai Building came to harass every three days, and the people outside the door were probably not friendly.

"I don't know if you all know that Ziming Lili is bathing in the blue sky?"

Mu Qingtian wanted to knock on the door again, but a gust of wind blew up and messed up his hair.The door in front of him suddenly opened, and Wu Wang grabbed the doorknob tightly, looking excitedly at Mu Qingtian and Wu Tingyun outside the door.

"Sir, please come in."

Mu Qingtian had already guarded against Zhang Fu. When Fu Shoutang first came from Mingli to collect peppers, he hid the part he had grown himself and did not sell them.

As soon as he entered the door, Mu Qingtian said straight to the point: "There is no secret recipe in Penglai Tower, and there is absolutely no way to make spicy laguna."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the wrinkles on their faces were much less.

"But my lord, the Fushou Hall has been copied by the county magistrate, and all the red gold has been robbed. Even if we have the secret recipe, we can't make it." Wu Wang didn't relax too much because of Mu Qingtian's words.

Mu Qingtian smiled, turned around and exchanged glances with Wu Tingyun, turned around and said to Wu Wang, "I wonder if the contract I signed with Boss Wu still counts?"

"Naturally." Wu Wang nodded.

"At two o'clock tomorrow, at the ruined temple outside the city, I will hand over the red gold to you." Seeing that Wu Wang was in a hurry to say something, Mu Qingtian signaled him to be calm, and said slowly, "I will give you this bag of red gold now." I won’t charge you any money, and let Boss Wu talk to me personally when Fu Shou Tang comes back.”

"Thank you sir!"

"Mr. Ke, now that the Fushou Hall is closed, how should we sell crayfish?"

"Without the restaurant, wouldn't everyone stop eating?" Mu Qingtian asked back.

Wu Wang couldn't figure out what Mu Qingtian meant, so he said with a simple smile, "We are stupid, please explain clearly, sir."

"Push the cart to sell on the street." Mu Qingtian said, "But remember, each person can only sell ten copies per day, not more."

Wu Wang didn't understand the mystery of it, but he trusted Mu Qingtian very much and agreed without hesitation.

Soon, some people discovered that there were a few men pushing carts selling spicy laguna on the street.At first, no one came to buy it, all because they were frightened by the lagu in Penglailou.Some daring ones tried to buy a copy, and immediately found that these la gu were different from Penglailou, even the taste was almost the same as that sold by Fu Shoutang before!

Many people came here with the attitude of giving it a try, and without exception, they all ate to their heart's content.

What Mu Qingtian handed to Wu Wang was dried chili peppers, which were not as spicy as wet chili peppers, and suitable for all ages.Wu Wang has been complying with Mu Qingtian's request, and the supply soon exceeds the demand.

"Brother, ten servings is too little, you can make more every day." The diner who spoke wanted to buy two servings, but was told that they were gone.

Wu Wang smiled and said honestly: "Ten servings are enough, enough to make ends meet."

After eating the delicious la gu, everyone couldn't help thinking about the time when they ate la gu at Fu Shou Tang.Although it was not obvious on the surface, there was a lot of dissatisfaction with the county government and Penglai building in his heart.

The author has something to say: Is it early enough to update today!

small theater:

Zhu Jingshou: Is Wu Tingyun more attractive than this king?

Mu Qingtian: Wu...

Zhu Jingshou: Are elbows better or green vegetables better?
