Chapter 114 Two Powders
Zhou Erhao\'s wife and Li San Lai\'s wife both had red faces, wishing that they could hide underground.
"There is no such thing in the Precinct Head!" Zhou Erhao scoffed, "Everyone in the village knows that there is a dog in Processing Factory, are we not idiots who run off to die?"
"No such thing?" Qin Mian retorted calmly, "Did the three of you dream at the same time? And sleepwalking with a ladder and a bun? Or I can send someone to find out who bought this knockout drug and where it was bought from. "
Zhou Erhao was at a loss for words. He understood in the bottom of his heart that once he had investigated thoroughly, he would be even more shameless.
Li San Lai let out a cold snort, held his head high, and acted as if he was about to break down, "I entered the Processing Factory, I\'m curious about entering it, can\'t I just take a stroll?"
There was no need for Qin Mian to say anything, but there were villagers who could not bear to see it, "Going in so late at night? Li Sanlai, you won\'t find anything decent even if you find excuses! "
Zhao Sifeng pushed away his wife and viciously said, "You should consider yourselves lucky that you didn\'t steal anything this time!"
The crowd went into an uproar as they looked at him in disbelief.
"Qin Mian, Lei Tia, who told you to look down on people, your family has invited others to do the work, but you did not invite us. You guys are heartless, so don\'t blame us for being unjust! " Zhao Sifeng righteously shouted.
Qin Mian did not get angry, but laughed and said indifferently: "We did not invite you out. Back then when we invited people to dig the pond, you only dug once if someone else had dug ten spades. I can\'t afford someone like you. Uncles, I am not making this up, am I? In the past, there were many people present. "
Some villagers voiced their agreement.
"Yeah, I was there at that time as well as Grandpa Liu, right? We can all see it clearly! "
Zhao Sihao straightened his neck, "People change! "How do you know I didn\'t change?"
Qin Mian\'s smile became even colder, and he looked at him with a mocking gaze, "Do you think that I don\'t know that it was you who nearly caused the disappearance of my family\'s cow? I didn\'t say that I\'m giving you face, but some people just don\'t care about face. "
Zhao Si\'s expression changed drastically as his eyes flickered evasively.
"What!" The other villagers were shocked. Just about half a month ago, the cow from Qin Mian Family had disappeared, and everyone helped to search for it. They all thought that it was the cow that tied up the cow and ran away on its own. At that time, they all thought it was strange, since Qin Mian Family\'s cow was also very docile, so why did it suddenly run away?
Lei Qin raised his voice to reveal Zhao Si\'s ugly story, "Precinct Head, everyone, it was Zhao Si Han who almost caused the disappearance of our ox. This was something that Seventh Elder saw with his own eyes. Zhao Si Fa, he is your grandfather. He pleads for you and hopes our Young Master and Young Master will give you a chance. Unfortunately, you didn\'t treasure it. " In Grand Xia Dynasty, stealing and killing cattle was a grave crime.
The villagers\' discussions became even louder as they looked disdainfully at Zhao Sifeng\'s body.
Zhao Si\'s face was dark and gloomy. He tightly pursed his lips and didn\'t say a word.
Qin Mian turned to Precinct Head and politely asked: "Precinct Head, may I ask how do you think we should settle this matter?"
Precinct Head was troubled. The three of them had children, the oldest was not even ten years old, and the youngest was more than two years old. If he sent them to an official, then the daughter-in-law in the family would have no one to rely on. But if he didn\'t punish them, how would he manage the village in the future? There was no limit to the rules. Moreover, he still owed Qin Mian and Lei Tia a huge favor.
He pondered for a while, then said, "Eldest nephew, what do you think about this? Fortunately, this time you all have discovered it in time. Since Processing Factory has not caused any losses, let the three of them travel the village and warn others that they are not allowed to eat or drink water for one day. "
Qin Mian had already expected that the penalty would not be too heavy, so he could only nod his head.
Lei Tia\'s cold gaze swept across Zhou Erhao and the other two, then looked at the other villagers, his voice cold. "If there\'s a next time, send the official away. If anyone thinks that they can find someone to plead with the next time they make a move on Leisurely Dwelling House, they can give it a try. "
Everyone trembled. This was not only a warning to Zhou Erhao and the other two, it was also a reminder to them.
"Thank you, Precinct Head." Qin Mian cupped his hands in apology to Precinct Head and left with Lei Tia.
Precinct Head looked at Zhou Erhao and the other two in disappointment. Qin Mian and Lei Tia were not ill-natured people. If Zhou Erhao and the other two were really willing to change their bad habits, Qin Mian and Lei Tia might be willing to hire them, but it was a pity that these three were useless. No one could sympathize with him even if they wanted to.
Precinct Head instructed the few stronger villagers, "The few of you, escort the three of them to travel around the village."
"Yes, Precinct Head."
Qin Mian told Lei Qinzhong and the other two, "I see that Zhou Erhao, Li Sanlai and Zhao Sifeng are not people who would change after being taught a lesson, you must take care of them in the future."
"Yes, Young Master."
Qin Mian was a little worried as he said to Lei Tia: "Zhou Erhao said that Li Sanlai did this for the formula. Do you think that is true?"
Lei Tia said: "Get people to watch him."
Lei Qin Jian kept staring at Li San Lai for a few days, but didn\'t see him come into contact with any suspicious people. He could tell that Zhou Erhao was purposely trying to confuse them. To be safe, Lei Tia arranged four people to be on night shift at Processing Factory.
Zhao Sifang\'s wife was an honest woman, and this matter had nothing to do with her. Qin Mian did not fire her, but he had warned her once in front of everyone in the workshop that he would not fire her because her child was still young.
This matter was finally over.
"..."
The entire morning, Qin Mian was busy writing the story of Liang Shan Bo and Zhu Ying Tai. In the afternoon, Lin Qiang told a heroic story; in the night, Ye Fengqiu told a romantic love story. Almost every match, the Shuangzhuan Restaurant tea rooms were fully filled. Many of the small teahouses even copied these two stories, but their progress was nothing more than the last few stages of Shuangzhuan Restaurant. Because it was a joke. A rich young master with the surname Zhao thought that he had greater knowledge than most people around him. Regardless of what it was, he had seen and experienced it before most people. Once, he heard a chapter from "Liang Shan Bo and Zhu Ying Tai" in a teahouse outside the city. He clapped his hands in admiration and excitedly pulled his good friend, Young Master Zhang, to listen to something new. In the end, he was laughed at by his good friend. This story was actually moved over from Shuangzhuan Restaurant\'s tea room! From then on, he practically came to the Shuangzhuan Restaurant every day to listen to the storyline during the night. He stayed there every night as if he was returning home, making an important contribution to the collection of Shuangzhuan Restaurant. Because of this matter of the real person, his Shuangzhuan Restaurant has become even more famous.
When Lei Tia returned from the fields, he took a bath and went upstairs. His hair was still wet.
"Wife, take a rest."
Just a moment. Liang Shan Bo and Zhu Ying Tai still have a final ending. I\'ll finish it all at once." Qin Mian did not even raise his head. To avoid arousing suspicion, he did not use a pen or ballpoint pen, but a brush instead. Of course, the words didn\'t look good either. He had to ask Lei Tia before he met any traditional characters that he could not write.
Lei Tia took the pen in his hand and took over the job. Qin Mian dictated, he wrote.
"What\'s the next story?"
Qin Mian snickered, " Celestial Bet , a fairy that descended to the mortal world fell in love with a mortal. After the story of Liang Shan Bo and Zhu Yingtai ends, the night arena will be closed for three days to keep them in suspense. "
Lei Tia looked at him, writing quickly.
Lei Qinle shouted from below: "Eldest Young Master, Young Master, I\'ve sent back some fruits."
Qin Mian was too lazy to go downstairs, he went to the balcony and asked, "Is everything alright in the restaurant?"
"All good. Business is booming." Lei Qinle wiped the sweat off his face and raised his head, "This little one has one more thing to report. The town has a new carriage shop, and the carriages inside are all luxurious carriages that are specially sent to Zhaoyang County and a few nearby counties to be fed by Shuangzhuan Restaurant. "
"Oh? The owner of this car shop is a smart person. " Qin Mian asked, "Do you know who the boss is?"
Lei Qinle said mysteriously: "Young Master, then you should know the young master."
Qin Mian thought of a person, "Nie Heng?"
"Exactly." Lei Qinle flattered him, "Young Master is so powerful, a guess is enough!"
Qin Mian smiled faintly.
"That horse carriage business is doing very well!" Lei Qinle said in a regretful tone, "Young Master, if he knew it would be like this, he would have taken advantage of us!"
Qin Mian laughed without saying a word. The carriage shop appeared as he had expected. Other than Lei Tia, he did not tell anyone else that the purpose of his restaurant was not only to run the restaurant itself, but also to increase the economic development of the Flowing Water Town. Nie Heng\'s horse carriage business was only the first place that was attracted here. When more and more merchants were attracted over, Shuangzhuan Restaurant\'s business would become even better. Although this was a relatively long process, it was not a difficult task for someone like him who had enough chips in hand. Moreover, he could afford to wait. At that time, the meaning of Shuangzhuan Restaurant would not be as simple as just a restaurant and i
.
"Lei Qinle, make another trip. With Nie Heng\'s shrewdness, he would definitely not say that his horse carriage would only take guests that were brought to the Shuangzhuan Restaurant to eat and sleep. But our Shuangzhuan Restaurant must express our attitude. Tell Manager Sun to explain to him that if any accidents were to happen to the guests in Shuangzhuan Restaurant during the process of sitting in their carriage, it has nothing to do with Shuangzhuan Restaurant at all. Also, let the Manager Sun find a way to buy a shop in the town as soon as possible. It ca
ot be too small, but it doesn\'t have to be too big either. Try not to stray too far from the spot. "
"Yes sir!"
Lei Qinle turned and ran.
"Wait!" Qin Mian laughed and said, "There\'s no need to be in such a hurry to pick a few yellow peaches to eat on the road."
"Thank you, Young Master!" The boss treats them well, and works for the boss, Lei Qinle\'s entire body was filled with energy.
Lei Qinle came back in the afternoon and said everything was going well. The Manager Sun asked him to pass on his message to Nie Heng. Nie Heng wanted to meet Qin Mian face to face, so he made clear that the carriage shop would only take in guests with Shuangzhuan Restaurant.
Qin Mian pla
ed to visit the town the next day to send off his manuscript.
After di
er, the husband and husband entered the space and watered the Pink Ball as usual. For some reason, Little White had been paying attention to the Pink Ball recently, so Qin Mian brought it in with him.
Qin Mian slowly watered the Pink Ball, and casually touched the Pink Ball, his hand paused for a moment, he squinted his eyes and looked at Lei Tia, then waved his hand: "Tia, did the Pink Ball come in with this\' thread \'yesterday?"
There was an additional shallow ditch on the Pink Ball that was slightly sunken in. It looked just like a Pink Ball that was gradually splitting into two.
Lei Tia observed for a while, then shook his head, "No."
In order to confirm their speculations, the two of them decided to pay close attention to the movements of the Pink Ball for the next few days.
The next day, Qin Mian came to town and met Nie Heng at Shuangzhuan Restaurant.
What Nie Heng meant was, he hoped that his horse carriage would be linked to Shuangzhuan Restaurant. Like this, the guests who wanted to come and eat at the Shuangzhuan Restaurant would come over and take his horse carriage. Of course, this action would be beneficial to the Shuangzhuan Restaurant. There were many guests who were interested in coming to Shuangzhuan Restaurant to eat, but they felt that it was too far, and could not be bothered to drive or look for a carriage. Since they had already prepared cars to take, it would save them a lot of trouble if they went directly to their destination. Moreover, the words "special train" sounded very high-class.
However, Shuangzhuan Restaurant was extremely important to the horse carriage industry, and the reason why Nie Heng was driving this horse carriage business was so that he could reach the source of Shuangzhuan Restaurant customers. After an intense debate, Qin Mian and Nie Heng had reached an agreement that ten percent of Nie Heng\'s monthly earnings would go to the Shuangzhuan Restaurant.
After this matter, Qin Mian and Nie Heng had a greater understanding and appreciation of each other\'s business skills and could be considered as friends.
The Pink Ball that received Qin Mian and Lei Tia\'s attention changed day by day, and by the early September, they finally became two identical Pink Ball, like a mirror image of each other.
Qin Mian was really looking forward to the day when the Pink Ball blossomed. Even Lei Tia was slightly more fervent towards the Pink Ball, and would usually go in to take a look when there was nothing else to do.
