The Story of Ancient Farming through Time Traveling
Chapter 118 Counterattack
Now that the Xiao family has their eyes on him, the Li family must also be involved. They have been bullied to the top, so they have to do something, right?It's not his style to be soft shrimp.
"Brother Bai, we can't sit and wait for death. Fortunately, it's you tonight. If it were someone else, it would definitely not be so easy to solve. Sitting and waiting for death will only make them more arrogant. Now it's smashing the store, maybe it will be murder in the future."
"Xing Zhou, don't be in a hurry, send them to the government first tomorrow, and then make a long-term plan. It's getting late today, go back and rest earlier."
"we can only do this."
Walking to an empty corner, Baigan gently hugged Chen Xingzhou to comfort him, "Xingzhou, don't worry, I will stay with you until this matter is resolved." Xingzhou must have been frightened tonight.
"Brother Bai, thank you, I feel at ease with you by my side." It wasn't that he was afraid, but he enjoyed the feeling of being protected.
"That's good. Tomorrow, you have to choose the buddy. I will come back as soon as possible."
"it is good."
"Then go home."
"Ah."
Chen Xingzhou suffered from insomnia tonight. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. To be honest, he relied on the flour to make money. Compared with wheat, the fruit's profit is nothing but drizzle. The existence of the Li family and the Bei family is like a handful. The knife may fall off at any time and cut off his fortune, so he must not sit still, but is there any way to keep these two families from getting along in Shanshui Town?
Bad ideas kept appearing, and were filtered one by one by Chen Xingzhou. After nearly two hours, he finally came up with a bad idea that was still feasible. It would completely ruin the reputation of the Li family and the Bei family and prevent them from gaining a foothold in Shanshui Town. It sounds simple, but it is difficult to operate. They need to add some ingredients to their food, and since no one buys it, how can they gain a foothold?But this matter needs to be discussed with Baigan, let's go to bed first.
Zhou Jin listened quietly to the perennial report on Chen Xingzhou's recent situation, "Chen Xingzhou recently opened a fruit shop, and the business is very good. He also sold flour two days ago, which offended the Li family and the Bei family. There is another important thing, Mr. Prime Minister. I used to go there to buy fruit."
Zhou Jinxiu frowned, did Shu Chenggong really just go to buy fruit?
"When did the prime minister go?"
"About half a month ago."
The tea bowl in Zhou Jin's hand was thrown out, and it hit Chang Nian's head impartially, and blood was seen immediately.
"Why are you reporting now?"
He dared not say a word all the year round, and the people under his command were unfavorable in doing things, but he was the one who was unlucky.
"Subordinates are convicted."
"I didn't raise you for nothing. Go to Shanshui Town immediately. This time, you must kill Baigan and Chen Xingzhou. If you fail, you don't want to come back."
"Yes."
"Get lost." Zhou Jin really didn't want to see Chang Nian's face anymore, what a bunch of trash.
Nian Nian hurriedly got up and retreated, fearing that if another tea bowl came, his life would be his own.
It seems that it is necessary to meet and see the book with success.
On the second day, Chen Xingzhou woke up early, Li Zhu and the other three hadn't woken up yet, but Liu Cui and the cook had already prepared breakfast.
"Xing Zhou, didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Mother, how do you know?"
"As soon as I saw you, I knew it. Not to mention the dark circles around the eyes, and my complexion is not very good."
Dark circles come out?The original champion of staying up late can't stay up late now?
"I gonna go see."
In the not-so-clear bronze mirror, Chen Xingzhou's dark circles were particularly obvious. May I ask, can he still recruit a buddy in this state?
Chen Xingzhou wandered around in the space of consciousness for a while, and he had an extra bottle of whitening isolation in his hand. Don't ask him why he has this thing, in fact, he doesn't know.
Quickly apply it around the eyes, the dark circles are perfectly covered, and the whole person looks more energetic now.
When Chen Xingzhou came out again, it looked another way, the black things around his eyes were gone, Liu Cui was surprised, "Xingzhou, your eyes?"
"Mother, stop asking, I have to go out quickly." Chen Xingzhou picked up two steamed buns and went out quickly, lest Liu Cui catch him asking questions.
Until the early morning of the second day, Bei Xiao didn't hear any news from the five people, and his uneasiness grew. It seemed that something had happened, so he quickly called the housekeeper to tell him, "Steward Liu, go to the Qianzhou fruit shop to see what's going on."
"Yes, sir."
After Steward Liu left, Bei Xiao paced back and forth restlessly. If something really happened, it would prove that Chen Xingzhou was not easy to deal with.
He didn't wait to return to Steward Liu, but he waited for Li Shiduo.
"Why are you free to come here?"
"Isn't it because of that Chen Xingzhou, otherwise I wouldn't want to come over such a long distance." One is in the west and the other is in the east, and it takes a lot of effort to run back and forth.
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"At the beginning, I planned to ask you how things were going, but I didn't expect to see that kid Chen Xingzhou on the way. I sent Qiao Fei to investigate the situation, and I guess I'll be here soon."
As soon as Li Shiduo finished speaking, he saw two figures approaching quickly from a distance, and when he got closer, he realized that it was Steward Liu and Qiao Fei.
Li Shiduo was not an outsider, so Steward Liu naturally did not shy away from it, and told what he found out, "Master, the five people you sent were taken away by the boss of Tianxianglou today."
"What? Take it away? Where did you take it?"
"I don't know about that. I didn't dare to follow. I only saw Boss Bai leading me away from the Qianzhou fruit shop."
Bei Xiao slapped the table angrily, trash, what a bunch of trash, they couldn't handle such trivial things well, and even paid themselves out.
"Xiao Fei, do you know where Chen Xingzhou has gone?" Bei Xiao failed in his first attack, so he had to start from other places.
"Go to the market and recruit the buddies."
Suddenly, Li Shi thought about it, God helped him.
"I have a method that can definitely bring down Chen Xingzhou."
Bei Xiao hurriedly asked: "What method? Tell me quickly."
"Since Chen Xingzhou is recruiting a buddy, let's put our own people in and keep track of his movements at all times. In this way, wouldn't it be easy to deal with him?"
After hearing this, Bei Xiao clapped his hands and praised, "It's a good idea, but who should we send?"
"Of course it's the person we trust the most, especially if it's someone Chen Xingzhou has never met."
Where can one find such a person?Although Steward Liu is the person he trusts the most, he is old and not suitable, and Bei Xiao is caught in a dilemma for a while.
Li Shiduo looked at Qi Fei suddenly, "You were not noticed when you followed."
Qi Fei shook his head, "No."
"Well, I'll leave this matter to you. Be sure to gain his trust. Remember, don't use your real name." Even if the incident is revealed, he will not be suspected.
"Yes."
"Then hurry up, in case Chen Xingzhou recruits enough."
"Yes." Qi Fei agreed and left quickly.
When Chen Xingzhou came to the market, there was a small job market here, and Da Zhou had developed well in this regard, quite advanced.
Chen Xingzhou wanted a guy with a bit of high qualifications, being able to read, have a wink, and be able to speak. These three requirements disappointed many people.
"Can you look at me?" A young man with a good face came up to Chen Xingzhou and asked.
"Can you read?"
"Literacy and hyphenation."
"What did you do before?"
"I worked as a clerk in a pawn shop for several years. Due to poor management not long ago, the pawn shop closed, so I came out to find work."
Having worked as a clerk in a pawn shop for several years, which is equivalent to several years of work experience in modern times, Chen Xingzhou immediately hired "two taels of silver a month, is that okay?" The requirements are high, and the salary is naturally high, otherwise he will not find a clerk.
As soon as the young man heard the monthly payment of two taels of silver, he agreed without thinking, "Yes, yes." When he was in the pawn shop, the monthly payment was only one tael, but now the monthly payment is two taels. Is there any reason not to go?Not only go but also do a good job.
"What's your name?"
"Wu Zhuang."
The name doesn't match the person well, and he's not strong, but he's tall and thin. I guess the name was chosen to make him stronger, right?
"Wu Zhuang, it's okay to come to work today, right?"
"No problem at all."
"Okay, then let's go back to the store after I recruit another one." It is enough to recruit two guys.
"Boss, don't you know the name of our shop?"
"Qianzhou Fruit Shop."
Wu Zhuang was shocked immediately, and asked incredulously, "Is that the shop that sells flour?"
"Yes."
Wu Zhuang looked extremely excited, "Boss, I never thought that one day I would work in Qianzhou Store. You don't know that our ordinary boss is very grateful to you. It is because of you that we can eat steamed buns. Many people call you Huo Bodhisattva behind their backs." .”
Thank myself, Chen Xingzhou knew, but he really couldn't bear the title of living Bodhisattva.
"It's all rumored by everyone, but I actually didn't do anything." If there is a day when the seeds are given away for nothing in the future, wouldn't I really become a living Bodhisattva.
"You have helped a lot of people by selling the flour so low. If it weren't for you, we might not be able to eat big white steamed buns for the rest of our lives."
Just as Chen Xingzhou was about to say something, he saw a small man approaching them, "Are you still hiring?"
"Can you read and write? Where did you make a living before?"
"Yes, I used to work at Li's Grain Shop."
Li's food store?The opposite site.
"Then why didn't you do it?"
"Since there is no business every day, the boss dismissed some workers."
It turns out that this is the case, but it is also the past, but now is an eventful time, and we must be careful in everything.
"What are you doing there?"
"It's just an ordinary porter, moving grain from the granary to the shop."
A man who can read and write, and works as an ordinary porter, is a bit disharmonious. Looking at the man in front of him, he doesn't seem to be a coolie. Chen Xingzhou has some calculations in his heart, but before he makes a conclusion, let's recruit him.
"Let's start working today for two taels of silver a month, no problem?"
The man nodded like a pounding garlic, "No problem, no problem."
"What's your name?"
"Georgie."
"Okay, from today onwards, you two are my buddies, do your best, and I won't treat you badly."
"Yes." The two agreed in unison.
When I got back to the store, it was a bit late, and many people were standing at the door waiting to open the door.
Chen Xingzhou opened the door and started doing business.
