I am the county magistrate in Daming
Chapter 30 The Destruction of Penglai Building
It is different from the copying of Fushoutang at the beginning, this time it is Penglailou and its thugs who came to smash the scene, and the people are naturally not afraid.The power of the masses is great, and the power of foodies should not be underestimated.A few burly people in the team rushed out and wrestled with the people in Penglailou, never letting them get close to Wu Wang's stall.
The police patrolling the street soon heard the sound, and separated the people on both sides with a knife across the street.
"My lord, you have to make the decision for the little one!" The boss of Penglailou yelled while hiding behind his own thugs.
On the other hand, Wu Wang carefully took out a serving of spicy lagu, and said to the policeman, "Officer, this is today's serving, please accept it with a smile."
Under the staring gaze of the boss of Penglai Building, the policeman caught the crayfish and beat the people on both sides a little, and the matter was left alone.They are used to adapting to the wind, and they all headed towards Penglai Tower at first.But recently, the county magistrate would send arresters to the street every day to buy a portion of the crayfish from Wu Wang's stall, and he was full of praise when he ate it.Wu Yaozu in prison was not tortured, which is very intriguing.
After the policeman returned to the county office, he reported the matter to the county magistrate. Sure enough, Yao Jingdao became nervous, and the first question he asked was about Wu Wang's stall.
"Is the Lagu stall okay?"
"Responding to my lord's words, the little one brought people to arrive in time, and the Penglai Tower didn't succeed."
Yao Jingdao breathed a sigh of relief, but felt that he was too biased, so he coughed and said, "You did a good job, go down and receive the reward."
The policeman showed joy, knowing that he had guessed right, he repeatedly said to Yao Jingdao: "Thank you, sir!"
Yao Jingdao had a lot of dissatisfaction with Penglai Tower.If the crayfish could not be sold, the red gold would have to rot in their hands, turning from "gold" into broken copper and rotten iron.But the owner of Penglailou didn't want to do anything, and even went to trouble Wu Wang.Today, several people have come to report to the officials, saying that they vomited and had diarrhea after eating the food from Penglailou.
Oh, headache ah headache.Yao Jingdao shook his head, opened the food box and picked up the chopsticks.No matter how troublesome, why not eat a crayfish first!
Penglailou ate once, so of course he wouldn't just let it go.A few days later, a group of people sneaked into Wu Wang's house and smashed the cart he used to run the stall.The people in the room heard the movement and came out to check, and one of the cooks had his arm broken.
"You don't need to set up a stall anymore." Mu Qingtian said to comfort the anxious Wu Wang, "In five days' time, you will go to the street with your load, and unexpected people will come to you."
Relying on Wu Tingyun's powerful intelligence network, Mu Qingtian knew that the county magistrate of Chongming County would send people to buy crayfish every day, rain or shine, and he would only buy crayfish from Wuwang's stall, and did not even look at the crayfish in Penglailou.
Wu Wang was ordered to go back and thank the guests behind closed doors.I don't know who spread the news. Within a few days, everyone in Chongming County knew that Wu Wang's house had been burglarized.
On this day, the clerk of Penglailou was about to open the store for opening, when suddenly someone threw a bucket of swill on his face.
"Little man! Bah!" The man covered his face, threw the bucket and ran away after scolding.
Because it was early in the morning, there was no one on the street, and the man couldn't see his face, so by the time he reacted and chased after him, he had already disappeared.
"It's really bad luck!" The man cursed secretly, and went back to change his clothes despite the stench.
It was like this for the next few days, and sometimes when the guy woke up, he would find that the door was covered with dirt and smelled bad.
"Who the hell is so bold!" The owner of Penglai Building looked at the repair fee on the ledger with pain, and was furious.
"It must be the revenge of Wu Wang's group, boss, do you want to report to the government?"
"Report! Must report!"
Wu Wang asked a doctor to treat the injured cook. According to Mu Qingtian, after a few days of idleness at home, he went to the street to sell crayfish with a burden.
The first ones to get together were not the common people, but the policemen from Chongming County.
"Wu Wang, do you have a crayfish in your load?" The policeman made a gesture to lift the straw cover.
"Yes, sir, do you want a portion as usual?" Wu Wang asked respectfully and carefully, not knowing what the arrester wanted to do.
Unexpectedly, the catcher stroked his chin, took the crayfish from Wu Wang's hand, and said to him, "Just wait here for a while." After he finished speaking, his feet felt windy, and he disappeared immediately.
Wu Wang's stall was smashed, Yao Jingdao's lagulo broke again, and he was so angry that he dropped several vases.At this time, he finally realized that only relying on Wu Wang to set up a stall every day, people in Chongming County would never be able to eat crayfish every day, and he, the county magistrate, was no exception.
The police rushed back to the county government and told Yao Jingdao the news of Wu Wang's reappearance.
"Hurry up and bring me your regular uniform." Yao Jingdao urged the maid beside him.
Wu Wang's face had already been linked with Mala Lagu in everyone's minds, and the people on the street quickly recognized him and rushed over to say hello.
"Brother Ang, I heard that your house has been burglarized. Is it nothing serious?"
"Brother, we are all from the same country. If you have any difficulties, please tell us. Let's find a solution together."
Wu Wang felt warm in his heart, and said: "Thank you for your concern, Wu Wang is very grateful."
Out of sympathy for the weak, and the guilt of not helping when Fu Shou Tang was raided, everyone bought a crayfish today and gave Wu Wang a few more copper coins by coincidence.
Wu Wang didn't want to accept it at first, but the people who gave the money had a very tough attitude, so he could only write down one by one, and repay the kindness in the future.
"Cook Wu, are there any crayfish left today?" Just as Wu Wang was sitting on the side of the street with his chin resting on his chin, waiting for the police to come back, a sedan chair suddenly stopped in front of him.
"I'm really sorry, today... is big!"
Wu Wang raised his eyes, his three souls and seven souls were about to be scared away, and he was about to kneel when his knees trembled.As soon as Yao Jingdao waved his hand, two police officers in plain clothes went up and stopped Wu Wang.
"Master wants to try something new, I wonder if Chef Wu would like to show his face?" Yao Jingdao said this very politely.
Wu Wang thought that Yao Jingdao was here to arrest him, so he was all hopeless, and only replied: "It's up to the adults to decide."
When he arrived at the county government office, Wu Wang was ready to enter the prison, but who knew that the servant led him around and turned him into the kitchen!
"All the seasonings are here, sir, if you want to eat crayfish, do it well." The servant reminded him and left.
Wu Wang was in a daze, not knowing what was going on now.The county magistrate personally went out and took him to the county government just to eat a crayfish? !He suddenly thought of what Mu Qingtian said.
"There will be unexpected people coming to you."
Could it be that the person the gentleman mentioned is the county magistrate! !
After figuring out the joints, Wu Wang regained his energy and began to live in a kitchen with skillful techniques. After a while, the fragrance of crayfish filled the entire yamen.
Yao Jingdao sat in the backyard, took a deep breath, and said, "That's the smell!"
In the inn, Wu Tingyun got a report from Xiaosan, saying that Yao Jingdao went to the street in micro-clothes and brought Wu Wang back to the county government.Everything coincided with what Mu Qingtian said, Wu Tingyun became more and more curious about how Mu Qingtian guessed Yao Jingdao's actions.After enduring it for half a day, His Highness Prince Qing still couldn't bear it anymore.
"Sir." Wu Tingyun knocked on the door.
In order not to reveal Mu Qingtian's identity, they made an appointment to call Mu Qingtian "Mr." outside together.
"Is it Tingyun?" The voice from inside was hazy, as if covered in a layer of water vapor.
"Yes, there is something I don't understand, and I want to ask your lord."
"Hold on."
Wu Tingyun was waiting at the door, and vaguely heard the voice.After a while, the door opened from the inside.
Mu Qingtian was exuding heat, and her hair was also wet.He was only wrapped in a white scarf between his crotch, and his slender legs were exposed, shivering from the cold wind blowing through the door.
"Come in." As soon as Mu Qingtian finished speaking, Wu Tingyun took a big step inside and quickly slammed the door shut.
"Hey, it's still cold this autumn." Under Wu Tingyun's cannibalistic gaze, Mu Qingtian turned his back to him, and stepped back to the bathtub with bare feet.
The moment Wu Tingyun lifted the white scarf and entered the water, Wu Tingyun saw it.
He looked deeply at the wet footprints on the ground, counted them one by one, and walked to the bathtub.His long black hair was scattered around the bucket, and water droplets dripped from the ends of his hair, hitting the ground and hitting his heart.
"Stop the cloud?" Mu Qingtian felt a big hand touching the back of his neck, and turned his head slightly, puzzled.
Wu Tingyun smiled, hiding the paranoia in his eyes, and said, "Your Excellency has been tired recently, and he twisted his waist again. I will help you massage your neck."
"...We're still friends if we don't mention the waist twisting." Mu Qingtian forced her in a low voice.
He didn't think much about it, as if he just wrapped a bath towel to open the door for Wu Tingyun, just massage, two big men, what's wrong?
"By the way, you said you have something to ask me, what is it?" Mu Qingtian sighed.The method of stopping the cloud is really good!
Wu Tingyun felt the hot, delicate skin under his hands, as well as the slightly higher body temperature, and he had long forgotten Yao Jingdao, and answered absent-mindedly: "Yes, I just want to ask how the adults know The magistrate of Chongming County will find Wu Wang."
As soon as Mu Qingtian talked about this, he raised his arms and shouted: "No one can refuse spicy lagu, if there is one, then garlic!"
Wu Tingyun laughed, and his subordinates secretly squeezed Mu Qingtian back into the bathtub.
"It's cold outside, it's better for adults to soak in the water."
"If you ask me that way, is it possible that the county magistrate has already approached Wu Wang?"
Wu Tingyun nodded, and said: "What happened this morning, Wu Wang was invited to the county government to make spicy lachrymas." At the end, he was afraid that Mu Qingtian would be worried, so he added thoughtfully: "The county magistrate didn't make things difficult for him. .”
"That's good."
"The next step is up to them. I haven't contacted Yao Qin for a long time. In half a month, there is still a good show to watch."
Yao Jingdao entertained Wu Wang with delicious food and drinks for five days, during which time he was coerced and lured to stay in the county government as a cook.But Wu Wangning refused to obey and never surrendered.Yao Jingdao didn't want to really kill him, but if he killed Wu Wang, where should he go to eat crayfish?In the end, Yao Jingdao had no choice but to let Wu Wang go home.
"If adults want to eat, Caomin will make more and send them to the county government every day." Wu Wang sensed Yao Jingdao's attitude and took the opportunity to say.
"Okay, make a few more catties, and I will buy them at the market price."
"My lord, you are being polite. It is a blessing for grassroots people to be appreciated by your lord. How dare you ask for your money?"
With the favor of the county magistrate, Wu Wang became more confident and no longer afraid of Penglai Tower.But seeing that the amount of red gold was decreasing day by day, and he could not use it, he felt worried again.If things go on like this, the red gold will be exhausted within ten days, so what will be used to make a crayfish?
Wu Wang had the cheek to ask Mu Qingtian for it again, but it was a pity that Mu Qingtian didn't have ready-made peppers either.
"Just tell the truth." Mu Qingtian said.
On the seventh day, Wu Wang ransacked the boxes and cabinets, but did not find a single piece of red gold, so he had to go to the county government early to complain.The policemen in the county government knew him very well, and they let him go without asking too many questions. Some even secretly asked him if he could keep an extra serving of la crayfish next time.
Wu Wang didn't agree or refuse. In his opinion, these arresters are relying on the mountains to eat and see people's faces. This kind of behavior is understandable.But when he remembered the scene of Fushoutang being raided that day, his attitude couldn't get better.
"What? The red gold is gone?" Yao Jingdao was surprised, "Then go buy it."
"My lord, grass people..." Wu Wang seemed to have something to say, hesitating.
"But it doesn't matter."
"The owner of Fushoutang was lucky enough to get to know Ziming Lizheng Mu Qingtian before, and this red gold was also sold to us by Mulizheng. Now Fushoutang...Master Mu said that the next batch has not been planted yet, and the rest of the red gold is in the Penglai Building has a price but no market, so it can’t be bought.”
"He doesn't make crickets in Penglailou, so why come to join in the fun!" Yao Jingdao said angrily, completely forgetting that he and Penglailou crushed Fushoutang to death.
"When will the next batch of red gold be planted?" he asked.
"Lord Mu didn't say anything, but the matter of farming doesn't happen overnight."
Now Yao Jingdao is in trouble.Zhang Fu said that he would give him "gold", but he didn't even see the shadow of the gold, and he couldn't satisfy his appetite.
"My lord, Caomin knows that you have sent people to Fushoutang to discuss business. But the boss is stubborn and unwilling to break the contract with Mu Lizheng, so he offended you." Wu Wang said pitifully, and highlighted a "sincerity." "Word, throw it to Yao Jingdao to make a decision.
"There is such a thing!" Yao Jingdao pretended to be surprised, "Damn the magistrate, how dare you lie to me!"
Before he became a county magistrate, he was also a scholar, with a bit of the arrogance of a literati, holding it up, and he didn't want others to say that he was "unfaithful", "unfilial" and "dishonest".
"Your Excellency is wise." Wu Wang quickly knelt down.
"Don't worry, I will definitely give Fu Shou Tang justice."
Between fame, desire and money, Yao Jingdao chose fame and appetite without hesitation, and besides a crystal cup, Zhang Fu didn't give him anything.Cooperating with Fu Shoutang will not harm his interests, nor will it affect his and Zhang Fu's plans.
Fu Shoutang is only willing to buy red gold from Mu Qingtian, so he will force Mu Qingtian to hand over all the seeds.He and Zhang Fu are only responsible for selling seeds, farmers are responsible for farming, and Mu Qingtian is responsible for selling, wouldn't it be great.This rich man's vision is still too short-sighted, so he can't make long-term plans with him.
Thinking of this, Yao Jingdao has decided to abandon Penglai Tower.
Seeing Wu Wang going in and out of the county office all day long, the business is booming, but the number of diners in Penglai Building is becoming less and less, the business has plummeted, and the boss is anxious.He sent people to the county government office, trying to curry favor with Yao Jingdao, but was repeatedly rejected, even unable to enter the county government office.
"Boss." The man ran back disheartened, covering his face.
"How's it going, have you met your lord!" the owner of Penglailou asked anxiously.
"I didn't see it." The clerk cautiously raised his eyes to look at the owner, saw that he was going to smash the glass, and quickly said: "It's those arresters who are deceiving people too much! Please calm down, the owner! When we see the lord, we must file a complaint! "
"Ha!" The boss of Penglailou sneered, "Too much bullying? When did I, Penglailou, feel that others were bullying too much!!"
"The little one has a stupid mouth and can't speak, my boss calms down, my boss calms down!" The man slapped himself twice on the face.
The boss of Penglai Building saw the obvious slap marks on his face, and frowned, "What's the matter with your face?"
The guy was very wronged, he stood with his head down and said, "It was the police who beat you quickly."
The boss of Penglailou's heart sank, and he asked again: "Then what did the arrester say?"
The buddy recalled it for a while, and repeated it word by word: "How many times do you want me to say it? My lord is the county magistrate of Chongming County, not the owner of a small restaurant. He has a lot of business and has no time to see him! 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, not yet. Open your eyes and see?"
The boss of Penglailou suddenly stood up, staggered a few steps back and fell to the ground, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word for a long time.
"Collect, collect things..." He lowered his head and muttered to himself.
Yinzheng, Yao Jingdao took people to Penglai Building before dawn.The chickens in the backyard were startled awake and howled a few times, waking up the sleeping buddies and cooks.
"Search." Yao Jingdao didn't say much, and let the head of the police force open the door and go in.
This time the search was even worse than the copying of Fushoutang. The policemen did not spare any corner and even smashed the stove.
"What are you doing!" The steward ran out in disheveled clothes, trying to stop the wanton saboteurs, but was directly pinned down by the head of the police and turned to the door.
"My lord, my lord." The steward's aura suddenly disappeared, and he knelt in front of Yao Jingdao without daring to say a word.
At Mao, the search was completed.All the people were driven into the lobby, except the boss.
"Where's your boss?" The chief of the police arrested a cook and asked viciously.
The cook raised his head in horror and said, "I don't know anything, my lord."
Yao Jingdao didn't expect to find anything at first, he just wanted to convict Penglailou, find a reason to release Wu Yaozu, and let Fushoutang reopen.But he didn't expect that the police actually found something.
"My lord, this is a bone found in a kennel." The policeman knelt in front of Yao Jingdao holding a piece of cloth.
Yao Jingdao felt disgusted, but there were people watching around him, so he could only put on a show and glanced at it.
"What kind of bone is this, and why is it so small?"
"Master, look at the shape, it looks like a mouse..." the policeman hesitated.
An ominous premonition rushed into Yao Jingdao's heart.
"Take it down and take it down."
"Yes."
Another policeman came up, holding a small plate in his hand, kneeling and said: "My lord, this is the meat I found in the back kitchen."
"Why did the stinky meat appear in the back kitchen of your Penglai Building!" Yao Jingdao was furious, pointing at the manager's head and yelling.
The steward is a coward. Seeing Dong Chuang's incident, he didn't even have the thought of sophistry, so he begged for mercy directly, saying: "My lord, spare me! It's all my master's idea! It's my master who was greedy for petty gains, and he ordered the grassroots to do this! My lord, please forgive me, this matter has nothing to do with it." The Caomin have nothing to do with it, it's all the owner's fault!"
When the steward was recruited, the other cooks didn't dare to hide any more, and knelt down one by one, revealing all the good things Penglailou had done.
"Rat meat, rat meat..." Yao Jingdao felt dizzy for a while and almost stopped.
Penglailou slandered Fushoutang for cooking rat meat and serving rotten rat meat to guests. It was also Penglailou! !
"Ouch." The sound of vomiting one after another came from the crowd of onlookers.
Most people in Chongming County have eaten the dishes of Penglailou, and some even entertain guests from other places in Penglailou.Sometimes the stewed meat in Penglailou has a peculiar smell, and they ask Xiaoer to ask, and they get a uniform answer, this is the unique sign of Penglailou, and this is what they eat.
It's really unique, and the restaurants next to it don't dare to cook with mouse meat!
Yao Jingdao immediately arrested the people from Penglailou and went back to the county government to interrogate them one by one.
"My lord, the owner of Penglailou must have heard something and fled overnight. Do you want to hunt him down?" asked the chief of the police.
"Chase!" Yao Jingdao gritted his teeth, "Send a notice to the surrounding villages and counties, and offer a huge reward, be sure to catch him!"
Zhang Fu went out for a few days, and when he came back, he heard that Yao Jingdao had sealed off the Penglai Building. He was shocked and hurried to the county government to inquire.
"My lord, why did you seal off the Penglai Building!"
Yao Jingdao looked at Zhang Fu with a flushed face, and then remembered the food at Penglai Restaurant he had eaten, and his anger grew slowly.
"If you don't seal it, why don't you wait for these untouchables to poison me to death!!"
Hearing that Yao Jingdao's tone was wrong, Zhang Fu put away his expression and knelt down and said, "My lord, please calm down. I didn't know the inside story and offended my lord. Please forgive me."
"Shut up if you don't know." Yao Jingdao snorted coldly, and turned to see off the guests.
Wu Yaozu and the steward were released from prison on the day when Penglailou was arrested. In order to compensate Fushoutang, the county government also gave Wu Yaozu the right to dispose of the table and chair decorations in Penglailou.
After half a month in prison, Wu Yaozu saw clearly the warmth and coldness of the world, and realized many truths.He only took the heavy and worthless tables, chairs and benches, and returned all the rest to the county government.After returning to Fushou Hall, listening to Wu Wang's account of what happened in the past half month, Wu Yaozu now truly regards Mu Qingtian as a benefactor of their clan, and he personally came to the door to thank him before he was finished.
Fu Shou Tang reopened, and Yao Jingdao ate la crayfish again, feeling a little better, so he called Zhang Fu to discuss the next step.
After solving the troubles in Fushoutang, Mu Qingtian and Wu Tingyun are also preparing to set off to return to Zimingli.
There was an eagle howling in the sky, and an eagle with a shiny coat and powerful wings hovered over the inn.
Wu Tingyun pushed open the window, and the eagle landed directly on the window sill, pecking lightly at his hand.
This is the emergency contact method in the palace, and it will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.Wu Tingyun patted the eagle's head and let it fly away, then turned and went to Mu Qingtian's room.
"Sir, I have something to do next, I have to go out for a while, and I'll be back later."
"Go." Mu Qingtian said lazily while lying on the bed.
Wu Tingyun made a good disguise and came to an empty alley.
"Come out, why use Shaking Thunder?" He said in a deep voice.
Xiao San fell from the roof, knelt down on both knees, and said: "My lord, please forgive me, my subordinates are not doing well. This morning, Li Canshi's body was found in the Fu River in Suzhou."
"Xiao Qi has gone to investigate. During the salvage, the token of Dongchang was found from Li Canshi's body."
The author has something to say: writers, writers soul, those who get up early are masters!
My update time is not fixed, but try to update as early as possible!There was jet lag at night, everyone was sleeping and I was still breaking my head with the professor, feeling sad.
small theater:
Wu Tingyun: Since my lord can guess what Yao Jingdao is thinking, why not guess?
Mu Qingtian: I really want to make Mu Qingtian [beep--] first, then [beep--], and then [beep--] [beep--] [beep--], and finally go to the hot spring together.
Mu Qingtian: Okay, Tang Quan, I understand.

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
The police patrolling the street soon heard the sound, and separated the people on both sides with a knife across the street.
"My lord, you have to make the decision for the little one!" The boss of Penglailou yelled while hiding behind his own thugs.
On the other hand, Wu Wang carefully took out a serving of spicy lagu, and said to the policeman, "Officer, this is today's serving, please accept it with a smile."

In the inn, Wu Tingyun got a report from Xiaosan, saying that Yao Jingdao went to the street in micro-clothes and brought Wu Wang back to the county government.Everything coincided with what Mu Qingtian said, Wu Tingyun became more and more curious about how Mu Qingtian guessed Yao Jingdao's actions.After enduring it for half a day, His Highness Prince Qing still couldn't bear it anymore.
"Sir." Wu Tingyun knocked on the door.
In order not to reveal Mu Qingtian's identity, they made an appointment to call Mu Qingtian "Mr." outside together.
"Is it Tingyun?" The voice from inside was hazy, as if covered in a layer of water vapor.
"Yes, there is something I don't understand, and I want to ask your lord."
"Hold on."
Wu Tingyun was waiting at the door, and vaguely heard the voice.After a while, the door opened from the inside.
Mu Qingtian was exuding heat, and her hair was also wet.He was only wrapped in a white scarf between his crotch, and his slender legs were exposed, shivering from the cold wind blowing through the door.
"Come in." As soon as Mu Qingtian finished speaking, Wu Tingyun took a big step inside and quickly slammed the door shut.
"Hey, it's still cold this autumn." Under Wu Tingyun's cannibalistic gaze, Mu Qingtian turned his back to him, and stepped back to the bathtub with bare feet.
The moment Wu Tingyun lifted the white scarf and entered the water, Wu Tingyun saw it.
He looked deeply at the wet footprints on the ground, counted them one by one, and walked to the bathtub.His long black hair was scattered around the bucket, and water droplets dripped from the ends of his hair, hitting the ground and hitting his heart.
"Stop the cloud?" Mu Qingtian felt a big hand touching the back of his neck, and turned his head slightly, puzzled.
Wu Tingyun smiled, hiding the paranoia in his eyes, and said, "Your Excellency has been tired recently, and he twisted his waist again. I will help you massage your neck."
"...We're still friends if we don't mention the waist twisting." Mu Qingtian forced her in a low voice.
He didn't think much about it, as if he just wrapped a bath towel to open the door for Wu Tingyun, just massage, two big men, what's wrong?
"By the way, you said you have something to ask me, what is it?" Mu Qingtian sighed.The method of stopping the cloud is really good!
Wu Tingyun felt the hot, delicate skin under his hands, as well as the slightly higher body temperature, and he had long forgotten Yao Jingdao, and answered absent-mindedly: "Yes, I just want to ask how the adults know The magistrate of Chongming County will find Wu Wang."
As soon as Mu Qingtian talked about this, he raised his arms and shouted: "No one can refuse spicy lagu, if there is one, then garlic!"
Wu Tingyun laughed, and his subordinates secretly squeezed Mu Qingtian back into the bathtub.
"It's cold outside, it's better for adults to soak in the water."
"If you ask me that way, is it possible that the county magistrate has already approached Wu Wang?"
Wu Tingyun nodded, and said: "What happened this morning, Wu Wang was invited to the county government to make spicy lachrymas." At the end, he was afraid that Mu Qingtian would be worried, so he added thoughtfully: "The county magistrate didn't make things difficult for him. .”
"That's good."
"The next step is up to them. I haven't contacted Yao Qin for a long time. In half a month, there is still a good show to watch."
Yao Jingdao entertained Wu Wang with delicious food and drinks for five days, during which time he was coerced and lured to stay in the county government as a cook.But Wu Wangning refused to obey and never surrendered.Yao Jingdao didn't want to really kill him, but if he killed Wu Wang, where should he go to eat crayfish?In the end, Yao Jingdao had no choice but to let Wu Wang go home.
"If adults want to eat, Caomin will make more and send them to the county government every day." Wu Wang sensed Yao Jingdao's attitude and took the opportunity to say.
"Okay, make a few more catties, and I will buy them at the market price."
"My lord, you are being polite. It is a blessing for grassroots people to be appreciated by your lord. How dare you ask for your money?"
With the favor of the county magistrate, Wu Wang became more confident and no longer afraid of Penglai Tower.But seeing that the amount of red gold was decreasing day by day, and he could not use it, he felt worried again.If things go on like this, the red gold will be exhausted within ten days, so what will be used to make a crayfish?
Wu Wang had the cheek to ask Mu Qingtian for it again, but it was a pity that Mu Qingtian didn't have ready-made peppers either.
"Just tell the truth." Mu Qingtian said.
On the seventh day, Wu Wang ransacked the boxes and cabinets, but did not find a single piece of red gold, so he had to go to the county government early to complain.The policemen in the county government knew him very well, and they let him go without asking too many questions. Some even secretly asked him if he could keep an extra serving of la crayfish next time.
Wu Wang didn't agree or refuse. In his opinion, these arresters are relying on the mountains to eat and see people's faces. This kind of behavior is understandable.But when he remembered the scene of Fushoutang being raided that day, his attitude couldn't get better.
"What? The red gold is gone?" Yao Jingdao was surprised, "Then go buy it."
"My lord, grass people..." Wu Wang seemed to have something to say, hesitating.
"But it doesn't matter."
"The owner of Fushoutang was lucky enough to get to know Ziming Lizheng Mu Qingtian before, and this red gold was also sold to us by Mulizheng. Now Fushoutang...Master Mu said that the next batch has not been planted yet, and the rest of the red gold is in the Penglai Building has a price but no market, so it can’t be bought.”
"He doesn't make crickets in Penglailou, so why come to join in the fun!" Yao Jingdao said angrily, completely forgetting that he and Penglailou crushed Fushoutang to death.
"When will the next batch of red gold be planted?" he asked.
"Lord Mu didn't say anything, but the matter of farming doesn't happen overnight."
Now Yao Jingdao is in trouble.Zhang Fu said that he would give him "gold", but he didn't even see the shadow of the gold, and he couldn't satisfy his appetite.
"My lord, Caomin knows that you have sent people to Fushoutang to discuss business. But the boss is stubborn and unwilling to break the contract with Mu Lizheng, so he offended you." Wu Wang said pitifully, and highlighted a "sincerity." "Word, throw it to Yao Jingdao to make a decision.
"There is such a thing!" Yao Jingdao pretended to be surprised, "Damn the magistrate, how dare you lie to me!"
Before he became a county magistrate, he was also a scholar, with a bit of the arrogance of a literati, holding it up, and he didn't want others to say that he was "unfaithful", "unfilial" and "dishonest".
"Your Excellency is wise." Wu Wang quickly knelt down.
"Don't worry, I will definitely give Fu Shou Tang justice."
Between fame, desire and money, Yao Jingdao chose fame and appetite without hesitation, and besides a crystal cup, Zhang Fu didn't give him anything.Cooperating with Fu Shoutang will not harm his interests, nor will it affect his and Zhang Fu's plans.
Fu Shoutang is only willing to buy red gold from Mu Qingtian, so he will force Mu Qingtian to hand over all the seeds.He and Zhang Fu are only responsible for selling seeds, farmers are responsible for farming, and Mu Qingtian is responsible for selling, wouldn't it be great.This rich man's vision is still too short-sighted, so he can't make long-term plans with him.
Thinking of this, Yao Jingdao has decided to abandon Penglai Tower.
Seeing Wu Wang going in and out of the county office all day long, the business is booming, but the number of diners in Penglai Building is becoming less and less, the business has plummeted, and the boss is anxious.He sent people to the county government office, trying to curry favor with Yao Jingdao, but was repeatedly rejected, even unable to enter the county government office.
"Boss." The man ran back disheartened, covering his face.
"How's it going, have you met your lord!" the owner of Penglailou asked anxiously.
"I didn't see it." The clerk cautiously raised his eyes to look at the owner, saw that he was going to smash the glass, and quickly said: "It's those arresters who are deceiving people too much! Please calm down, the owner! When we see the lord, we must file a complaint! "
"Ha!" The boss of Penglailou sneered, "Too much bullying? When did I, Penglailou, feel that others were bullying too much!!"
"The little one has a stupid mouth and can't speak, my boss calms down, my boss calms down!" The man slapped himself twice on the face.
The boss of Penglai Building saw the obvious slap marks on his face, and frowned, "What's the matter with your face?"
The guy was very wronged, he stood with his head down and said, "It was the police who beat you quickly."
The boss of Penglailou's heart sank, and he asked again: "Then what did the arrester say?"
The buddy recalled it for a while, and repeated it word by word: "How many times do you want me to say it? My lord is the county magistrate of Chongming County, not the owner of a small restaurant. He has a lot of business and has no time to see him! 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, not yet. Open your eyes and see?"
The boss of Penglailou suddenly stood up, staggered a few steps back and fell to the ground, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word for a long time.
"Collect, collect things..." He lowered his head and muttered to himself.
Yinzheng, Yao Jingdao took people to Penglai Building before dawn.The chickens in the backyard were startled awake and howled a few times, waking up the sleeping buddies and cooks.
"Search." Yao Jingdao didn't say much, and let the head of the police force open the door and go in.
This time the search was even worse than the copying of Fushoutang. The policemen did not spare any corner and even smashed the stove.
"What are you doing!" The steward ran out in disheveled clothes, trying to stop the wanton saboteurs, but was directly pinned down by the head of the police and turned to the door.
"My lord, my lord." The steward's aura suddenly disappeared, and he knelt in front of Yao Jingdao without daring to say a word.
At Mao, the search was completed.All the people were driven into the lobby, except the boss.
"Where's your boss?" The chief of the police arrested a cook and asked viciously.
The cook raised his head in horror and said, "I don't know anything, my lord."
Yao Jingdao didn't expect to find anything at first, he just wanted to convict Penglailou, find a reason to release Wu Yaozu, and let Fushoutang reopen.But he didn't expect that the police actually found something.
"My lord, this is a bone found in a kennel." The policeman knelt in front of Yao Jingdao holding a piece of cloth.
Yao Jingdao felt disgusted, but there were people watching around him, so he could only put on a show and glanced at it.
"What kind of bone is this, and why is it so small?"
"Master, look at the shape, it looks like a mouse..." the policeman hesitated.
An ominous premonition rushed into Yao Jingdao's heart.
"Take it down and take it down."
"Yes."
Another policeman came up, holding a small plate in his hand, kneeling and said: "My lord, this is the meat I found in the back kitchen."
"Why did the stinky meat appear in the back kitchen of your Penglai Building!" Yao Jingdao was furious, pointing at the manager's head and yelling.
The steward is a coward. Seeing Dong Chuang's incident, he didn't even have the thought of sophistry, so he begged for mercy directly, saying: "My lord, spare me! It's all my master's idea! It's my master who was greedy for petty gains, and he ordered the grassroots to do this! My lord, please forgive me, this matter has nothing to do with it." The Caomin have nothing to do with it, it's all the owner's fault!"
When the steward was recruited, the other cooks didn't dare to hide any more, and knelt down one by one, revealing all the good things Penglailou had done.
"Rat meat, rat meat..." Yao Jingdao felt dizzy for a while and almost stopped.
Penglailou slandered Fushoutang for cooking rat meat and serving rotten rat meat to guests. It was also Penglailou! !
"Ouch." The sound of vomiting one after another came from the crowd of onlookers.
Most people in Chongming County have eaten the dishes of Penglailou, and some even entertain guests from other places in Penglailou.Sometimes the stewed meat in Penglailou has a peculiar smell, and they ask Xiaoer to ask, and they get a uniform answer, this is the unique sign of Penglailou, and this is what they eat.
It's really unique, and the restaurants next to it don't dare to cook with mouse meat!
Yao Jingdao immediately arrested the people from Penglailou and went back to the county government to interrogate them one by one.
"My lord, the owner of Penglailou must have heard something and fled overnight. Do you want to hunt him down?" asked the chief of the police.
"Chase!" Yao Jingdao gritted his teeth, "Send a notice to the surrounding villages and counties, and offer a huge reward, be sure to catch him!"
Zhang Fu went out for a few days, and when he came back, he heard that Yao Jingdao had sealed off the Penglai Building. He was shocked and hurried to the county government to inquire.
"My lord, why did you seal off the Penglai Building!"
Yao Jingdao looked at Zhang Fu with a flushed face, and then remembered the food at Penglai Restaurant he had eaten, and his anger grew slowly.
"If you don't seal it, why don't you wait for these untouchables to poison me to death!!"
Hearing that Yao Jingdao's tone was wrong, Zhang Fu put away his expression and knelt down and said, "My lord, please calm down. I didn't know the inside story and offended my lord. Please forgive me."
"Shut up if you don't know." Yao Jingdao snorted coldly, and turned to see off the guests.
Wu Yaozu and the steward were released from prison on the day when Penglailou was arrested. In order to compensate Fushoutang, the county government also gave Wu Yaozu the right to dispose of the table and chair decorations in Penglailou.
After half a month in prison, Wu Yaozu saw clearly the warmth and coldness of the world, and realized many truths.He only took the heavy and worthless tables, chairs and benches, and returned all the rest to the county government.After returning to Fushou Hall, listening to Wu Wang's account of what happened in the past half month, Wu Yaozu now truly regards Mu Qingtian as a benefactor of their clan, and he personally came to the door to thank him before he was finished.
Fu Shou Tang reopened, and Yao Jingdao ate la crayfish again, feeling a little better, so he called Zhang Fu to discuss the next step.
After solving the troubles in Fushoutang, Mu Qingtian and Wu Tingyun are also preparing to set off to return to Zimingli.
There was an eagle howling in the sky, and an eagle with a shiny coat and powerful wings hovered over the inn.
Wu Tingyun pushed open the window, and the eagle landed directly on the window sill, pecking lightly at his hand.
This is the emergency contact method in the palace, and it will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.Wu Tingyun patted the eagle's head and let it fly away, then turned and went to Mu Qingtian's room.
"Sir, I have something to do next, I have to go out for a while, and I'll be back later."
"Go." Mu Qingtian said lazily while lying on the bed.
Wu Tingyun made a good disguise and came to an empty alley.
"Come out, why use Shaking Thunder?" He said in a deep voice.
Xiao San fell from the roof, knelt down on both knees, and said: "My lord, please forgive me, my subordinates are not doing well. This morning, Li Canshi's body was found in the Fu River in Suzhou."
"Xiao Qi has gone to investigate. During the salvage, the token of Dongchang was found from Li Canshi's body."
The author has something to say: writers, writers soul, those who get up early are masters!
My update time is not fixed, but try to update as early as possible!There was jet lag at night, everyone was sleeping and I was still breaking my head with the professor, feeling sad.
small theater:
Wu Tingyun: Since my lord can guess what Yao Jingdao is thinking, why not guess?
Mu Qingtian: I really want to make Mu Qingtian [beep--] first, then [beep--], and then [beep--] [beep--] [beep--], and finally go to the hot spring together.
Mu Qingtian: Okay, Tang Quan, I understand.
