Wei Hanyuan asked the man lying on the ground coldly, "Who are you?"
He was dressed in commoner clothes, the collar had been torn by Song Qianyuan, and his face was bruised and purple, which was extremely ugly, but Gu Rong could still see his bloated eyes, which were so bloated that only a slit was left, kept looking in the direction of shopkeeper Zhong.
Obviously he recognized Shopkeeper Zhong.
When he didn't speak, Gu Rong chimed in and said, "I'm asking you something, I'll tell you the truth!"
Gu Rong's voice was clear and crisp.
He is a scholar, and he has been ill for a long time, and he has a pair of deer-like almond eyes. In fact, no matter how fierce he speaks, he has no deterrent effect on people who really know how to play rascals.
But the man was still a little scared after all, his eyes drifted back and forth: "I am, I am..."
Song Qianyuan directly raised his leg and kicked him: "I didn't see the young master asking you something! Answer it well!"
The man was kicked in the stomach, and he let out a "wow" in pain, and quickly said: "I say! I say! The little one is the guy of this grain and rice shop!"
"Are you a guy from the grain and rice shop? Then what were you doing in the granary behind?" Gu Rong asked.
"The little one is just on a routine inspection..." The guy pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying.
Song Qianyuan kicked him again.
"Pfft—" The guy spat out a mouthful of blood from being kicked.
"Master," Song Qianyuan said, "Little Qianzi just went to the granary at the back and saw this man sneaking out, carrying out a bag of grain, as if he was about to load it into the carriage parked outside the back door. It didn't look like he was patrolling. "
"Are you a thief?" Gu Rong looked at him.
"No no!" the man said hastily, "I'm not a thief!"
How could he admit that he was a thief? If he did, he would be sent to the government. Maybe it was because Song Qianyuan's kicks were too painful. Can you speak for me!"
A hint of impatience and embarrassment flashed across Shopkeeper Zhong's face, and he finally said, "Yes, master, young master, he is our shop's buddy."
"Master Zhong," Gu Rong said leisurely, "Since you are a buddy, it means that our shop has been attacked by thieves, don't you care?"
Shopkeeper Zhong was speechless.
"In that case, then turn him over to the government." Gu Rong made a face to Song Qianyuan.
Song Qianyuan understood, picked up the guy's arm, and was about to lead him outside.
"Forgive me, young master! Forgive me, master! I say! I say! It's because there are a few bags of rice in the granary that don't comply with regulations, so Butler Zhong asked me...and let me dispose of those bags of rice!"
This sounds like a lie.
Wei Hanyuan said: "Why is it not compliant? Since the rice is not compliant, it will not be dealt with sooner or later. Why do you have to deal with it at this time? Besides, you didn't tell the truth just now, and you insisted on telling me it was rice at this time. Non-compliant?"
Wei Hanyuan patted the table next to him, stood up and said decisively: "Since this is the case, Steward Zhong might as well take us there to see what kind of illegal law it is!"
After speaking, he had to go in the direction of the back room.
Butler Zhong helplessly showed Wei Hanyuan the way: "The head of the house, this way please."
Before leaving, he turned his head and gave the guy a hard look.
Several people came to the granary in the back room.
The granary is not big.
Not all the rice sold in the grain and rice shop is piled up in the granary of the rice shop, and it cannot be put down.The shop is located on a bustling market street. Although it is in Jinzhou, Jinzhou is close to the capital city, and it can be regarded as the foot of the emperor. This kind of market shop is very expensive, so the granary behind can only temporarily store some spot goods. There are big customers who buy a lot at one time, so they need to order in advance.
Shopkeeper Zhong took out the key and opened the door of the granary.
There was a strange musty smell inside.
Although Gu Rong soaked in the medicine tank every day, and his nose was filled with herbal smell every day, his nose was still more sensitive than ordinary people, mainly because he was delicate and could not smell some weird smells.
The musty smell is very light, if you don't smell it carefully, you may not be able to smell it.
Sure enough, Gu Rong turned her head to look at Wei Hanyuan, but she didn't notice anything unusual.
The granary is a place that needs to be kept dry. Some finer grains and rice need to be stored carefully before they can be sold at a good price. If they have been left for a long time and become moldy or eaten by insects, customers may come back to make trouble. It will ruin your reputation.
Gu Rong frowned.
Wei Hanyuan said: "Where is the bag of broken rice? Take a look?"
Shopkeeper Zhong asked his buddy to bring the rice.
Wei Hanyuan opened the mouth of the bag, and the thin white rice slipped out. Wei Hanyuan put her hand into the bag and turned it over, and found that there was a lot of sand in the rice.
"Why is there sand in Mili?" Wei Hanyuan turned around and asked Shopkeeper Zhong.
"I don't know!" Shopkeeper Zhong waved his hand, "We also just found out that the quality of this batch of rice is not very good, isn't it urgent to deal with it?"
Wei Hanyuan turned her head to signal Song Qianyuan: "Little Qianzi, take another look."
Song Qianyuan understood, took out a short knife from his waist, walked over, picked a bag at random, and pierced the end.
"Hey! How can you stick the rice bag like this, the bag is leaking, how can we sell rice in the future?"
Song Qianyuan looked back at him.
With just one glance, the shopkeeper dared not speak, and closed his mouth angrily.
The fine white rice flowed out of the rice bag with a "squeak".
Wei Hanyuan picked it up with her hands, and took half of the sand.
"Let's look at other things." Wei Hanyuan said.
Song Qianyuan picked up a few more bags of Mizapo.
"Ouch! Master! You can't check the rice like this! We can't sell the rice like this! Not every bag of rice is like this, other rice is good!"
Shopkeeper Zhong was at the side trying to stop it.
However, every bag of rice picked by Song Qianyuan has problems, and it can be said that his vision is precise and vicious.
The more Wei Hanyuan looked at it, the more gloomy his face became: "Master Zhong, which bag of rice is the best, you think? Why is every bag of rice we pick out mixed with sand?!"
A layer of sweat oozed from the forehead of Shopkeeper Zhong.
He raised his sleeve and wiped his forehead, and said, "Master, it's true, I'll show you."
After speaking, he walked towards a bag of rice in the warehouse.
"Don't worry about it," Gu Rong said coolly, "Of course you know which bag of rice is good and which bag is bad. After all, you are the shopkeeper."
Song Qianyuan walked up to Gu Rong, bowed his head and said, "Master, Xiaoqian saw that there were several bags of rice in this warehouse. The color of the bags was different from the others. It was obviously because the rice had been stored here for a long time, so the color was old. Xiaoqian The son deliberately picked such a bag of rice and punctured it."
It turned out to be the case.
What Song Qianyuan meant by these words must be understood by using his brain.
Shopkeeper Zhong has always sold rice mixed with sand in the store. Today, because Wei Hanyuan was going to inspect the store to check the accounts, he asked the waiter to move out the rice mixed with sand as soon as possible. Acting according to the shopkeeper Zhong's instructions, he procrastinated until Wei Hanyuan and the others came, so he was caught by Song Qianyuan.
"How can this kind of rice be sold to others!" Wei Hanyuan was furious, "Master Zhong, if you don't explain this matter well today, why don't you just pack up and leave as soon as possible!"
"Little Qianzi," Gu Rong said from the side, "I can always smell a strange smell in this granary, please take a look, is there any corner that has been damp?"
"Yes!" Song Qianyuan looked around, followed what Gu Rong said, and began to search everywhere.
In order to keep it dry, straw and fine sand were thrown around the granary. Song Qianyuan used a short knife to pick up the straw in the corners.
Suddenly, with a "squeak", Gu Rong saw a small black thing rushing out from the corner.
Gu Rong turned pale with shock, and took a closer look, and found that it was a mouse.
There was a short urgent sound in his throat, and he suppressed it.
At such an old age, it's really not good to pounce on your mother. Gu Rong moved his steps and found Song Qianyuan striding towards him. Gu Rong subconsciously rushed over and hid behind Song Qianyuan.
"Little Qianzi..." Gu Rong let out a weak mosquito-fly sound from his nasal cavity.
He was really frightened, and the corners of his eyes were red.
"Don't be afraid, young master, he has already run away." Song Qianyuan comforted him in a deep voice.
"Did you run outside?" Gu Rong asked with his head.
If it is still in the granary, it must be caught.
"Master, don't panic," Song Qianyuan's voice seemed to contain a faint smile, as if laughing at his timidity, "I have already run out."
Gu Rong rubbed his eyes resentfully, and moved out from behind Song Qianyuan.
Song Qianyuan turned his head slightly, glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and smiled.
If he had known that the young master was so cowardly, he should have caught and killed that mouse.
However, Song Qianyuan thought, the young master will be even more scared when he sees this, right?
It's best to be so scared that you hide directly in his arms.
Forget it.
Song Qianyuan licked the corner of his mouth, suppressing the contradictory and unharmonious thoughts in his heart.
Young Master, it's better not to see these things.
Wei Hanyuan was angry at the fact that there were mice in the granary, when suddenly the clerk who stayed outside came in and said, "Master Zhong! Master Zhong! A big client is here, and he is looking for you!"
Shopkeeper Zhong raised his voice, "Here we come!"
After speaking, he took a careful look at Wei Hanyuan.
Unaware of him, Wei Hanyuan exchanged a glance with Chun Jin behind her, and walked back to the front hall first.
Standing in the front hall was a man dressed richly and wearing a jade pendant around his waist. The waiter next to him brought him a cup of hot tea and politely asked him to sit first.
The man took the hot tea and was about to sit down when he looked up and saw Wei Hanyuan coming out.
He was taken aback for a moment, but instead of going forward, he sat down on his seat with a cup of tea in his hands, and did not say hello to Wei Hanyuan.
Wei Hanyuan smiled and said, "What do you want to buy?"
The man took a sip of tea and looked towards the back of the shop: "Why do you ask a woman to come out to welcome customers, where is Shopkeeper Zhong?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Wei Hanyuan's face.
Gu Rong lifted the curtain from the back at the right time: "What do customers want to buy? The shopkeeper Zhong is not feeling well today. We are the owners of this store. If you have anything to say to us, it's the same."
Gu Rong was wearing brocade clothes and wrapped in a thick cloak. At first glance, he looked like a dignified and wealthy son. He only looked Gu Rong up and down, and then said contemptuously: "You? I don't want to talk to you, go, put the bell The shopkeeper is calling!"
Gu Rong had a rare good temper and said: "Guests may wish to talk about their needs first, and see if we can do it. If we can't, it won't be too late to call shopkeeper Zhong for you."
"Rong'er..." Wei Hanyuan said from the side.
This guest is not easy to mess with at first glance, and it is very likely that he came here deliberately to find trouble. She was afraid that Gu Rong would be wronged by the other party, so she wanted to come out to negotiate with the other party.
Gu Rong waved his hand at Wei Hanyuan, looked at the man and said, "Speak."
The customer smiled contemptuously, and said, "I want a thousand shi of rice, in stock, do you have it here?"
Gu Rong turned around and glanced at Wei Hanyuan.
Wei Hanyuan shook her head.
In general restaurants and restaurants, rice starts at [-] shi, and it is not easy to store if you buy too much. This person will cost [-] shi once he comes. There must be not enough rice in the warehouse. Gu Rong turned his head and said: "Guests may wish to pay the deposit first." , leave the address, and we will deliver the goods to you after we pick them up."
"Didn't you understand? I want stock!" the man said arrogantly, "I'm a regular customer here. I used to buy grain from shopkeeper Zhong, let alone a thousand shi rice, even if it was two thousand shi or three thousand shi. The shopkeeper can also get the goods. See? I have brought all the rice carts here."
Gu Rong looked out, and found that there was indeed a carriage loaded with goods parked outside the grain and rice shop.
Gu Rong hesitated for a while, and didn't know how to deal with this matter. He wanted to ask Wei Hanyuan, but asking in front of the guests seemed amateurish. Don't know how to deal with this matter.
Gu Rong thought for a while, and wanted Song Qianyuan to rush to the big warehouse to ask if he could transfer the spot goods to this customer urgently.
He was about to give orders, but he saw shopkeeper Zhong coming out of the back room quickly, greeted the man eagerly, and said, "Mr. Li, why are you here! Sit down! Sit down quickly! That's the big shopkeeper of our grain store. Come to visit the store! If you have any needs, you can tell her the same."
Mr. Li glanced at Wei Hanyuan lightly, and said contemptuously: "A woman! How can you be a big shopkeeper, even if you are a big shopkeeper! Come out to welcome guests to find bad luck for the guests! And even take care of things Not good, shopkeeper Zhong, hurry up and get the goods! Don't delay my business!"
Shopkeeper Zhong hurriedly said: "What does Mr. Li want! I'll do it right away!"
"I want [-] shi of rice, take it away today, and send the other [-] shi to my restaurant tomorrow. The old rule is to pay the bill first, and I will ask my staff to pay you together tomorrow. That's it!"
After speaking, Mr. Li stood up, patted the non-existent ashes on the skirt of his clothes, walked outside the shop and waited.
"What are you still doing, hurry up and get the goods!" Shopkeeper Zhong ordered the waiter behind him.
The guy behind him hurriedly responded and went to the warehouse behind to get the goods.
Gu Rong froze on the spot, and then became a little angry.
Mr. Li clearly thought that his mother was a woman and he was a young master, so he deliberately made things difficult for him.
He only said that he wanted [-] shi of rice, and that he wanted ready-made rice. Of course, Gu Rong thought he wanted [-] shi for ready-made rice, but when he turned to the shopkeeper, he said that he wanted [-] shi for ready-made rice, and the other [-] shi would be delivered to the door tomorrow. , the two are very different.
But Mr. Li was a guest, and Gu Rong couldn't really do anything to him, so he could only watch Shopkeeper Zhong chatting and laughing with this person, and waited for the assistant to pile the three hundred shi of rice into the cart.
When the goods were loaded and the shopkeeper Zhong wanted to send Mr. Li away, Song Qianyuan suddenly walked out of the grain and rice shop.
In his hand was a short knife, which had not yet been sheathed.
Song Qianyuan leaned against the door and gave Shopkeeper Zhong a cool look.
Shopkeeper Zhong was startled, not daring to look at him, and quickly looked away.
Mr. Li saw Song Qianyuan standing at the door with a Shura face. He flipped the short knife in his hand and played with the knife neatly. Finally, the tip of the knife fell into the sheath. His expression and posture seemed to imply threats. .
Mr. Li couldn't help feeling guilty, and got into the carriage. The servants around him shook off the reins, and soon the carriage drove away.
"Master," Song Qianyuan quickly turned back, leaning into Gu Rong's ear and said, "There seems to be something tricky between Mr. Li and Shopkeeper Zhong, so Xiaoqian will go and follow Mr. Li to see who is in it. what happened."
Song Qianyuan was very close to Gu Rong, his face was next to Gu Rong's ear, and the breath from his nose sprayed against Gu Rong's ear.
Feeling the heat, Gu Rong's ears gradually turned red. He forced himself to calm down, discerned what Song Qianyuan had just said to him, and coughed lightly: "Then you go, pay attention to safety."
Song Qianyuan chuckled and said, "It's the young master."
"Master Zhong, lend me the horse at the door."
After finishing speaking, Song Qianyuan went out quickly, got on his horse, and called out: "Drive!" Then he followed that Mr. Li secretly.
Seeing Song Qianyuan leave, Wei Hanyuan was a little confused.
Gu Rong turned around and whispered the matter to Wei Hanyuan.
Wei Hanyuan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and said, "Fortunately, we have a little money today."
"Yeah, it's okay." Gu Rong walked outside the door, watched Song Qianyuan's back for a while, and didn't turn around until one person and one horse disappeared at the corner of the street, and returned to Wei Hanyuan's side again.
The author has something to say:
Thank you for the nutrient solution of "How many chapters did you read today?"!
He was dressed in commoner clothes, the collar had been torn by Song Qianyuan, and his face was bruised and purple, which was extremely ugly, but Gu Rong could still see his bloated eyes, which were so bloated that only a slit was left, kept looking in the direction of shopkeeper Zhong.
Obviously he recognized Shopkeeper Zhong.
When he didn't speak, Gu Rong chimed in and said, "I'm asking you something, I'll tell you the truth!"
Gu Rong's voice was clear and crisp.
He is a scholar, and he has been ill for a long time, and he has a pair of deer-like almond eyes. In fact, no matter how fierce he speaks, he has no deterrent effect on people who really know how to play rascals.
But the man was still a little scared after all, his eyes drifted back and forth: "I am, I am..."
Song Qianyuan directly raised his leg and kicked him: "I didn't see the young master asking you something! Answer it well!"
The man was kicked in the stomach, and he let out a "wow" in pain, and quickly said: "I say! I say! The little one is the guy of this grain and rice shop!"
"Are you a guy from the grain and rice shop? Then what were you doing in the granary behind?" Gu Rong asked.
"The little one is just on a routine inspection..." The guy pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying.
Song Qianyuan kicked him again.
"Pfft—" The guy spat out a mouthful of blood from being kicked.
"Master," Song Qianyuan said, "Little Qianzi just went to the granary at the back and saw this man sneaking out, carrying out a bag of grain, as if he was about to load it into the carriage parked outside the back door. It didn't look like he was patrolling. "
"Are you a thief?" Gu Rong looked at him.
"No no!" the man said hastily, "I'm not a thief!"
How could he admit that he was a thief? If he did, he would be sent to the government. Maybe it was because Song Qianyuan's kicks were too painful. Can you speak for me!"
A hint of impatience and embarrassment flashed across Shopkeeper Zhong's face, and he finally said, "Yes, master, young master, he is our shop's buddy."
"Master Zhong," Gu Rong said leisurely, "Since you are a buddy, it means that our shop has been attacked by thieves, don't you care?"
Shopkeeper Zhong was speechless.
"In that case, then turn him over to the government." Gu Rong made a face to Song Qianyuan.
Song Qianyuan understood, picked up the guy's arm, and was about to lead him outside.
"Forgive me, young master! Forgive me, master! I say! I say! It's because there are a few bags of rice in the granary that don't comply with regulations, so Butler Zhong asked me...and let me dispose of those bags of rice!"
This sounds like a lie.
Wei Hanyuan said: "Why is it not compliant? Since the rice is not compliant, it will not be dealt with sooner or later. Why do you have to deal with it at this time? Besides, you didn't tell the truth just now, and you insisted on telling me it was rice at this time. Non-compliant?"
Wei Hanyuan patted the table next to him, stood up and said decisively: "Since this is the case, Steward Zhong might as well take us there to see what kind of illegal law it is!"
After speaking, he had to go in the direction of the back room.
Butler Zhong helplessly showed Wei Hanyuan the way: "The head of the house, this way please."
Before leaving, he turned his head and gave the guy a hard look.

The guy behind him hurriedly responded and went to the warehouse behind to get the goods.
Gu Rong froze on the spot, and then became a little angry.
Mr. Li clearly thought that his mother was a woman and he was a young master, so he deliberately made things difficult for him.
He only said that he wanted [-] shi of rice, and that he wanted ready-made rice. Of course, Gu Rong thought he wanted [-] shi for ready-made rice, but when he turned to the shopkeeper, he said that he wanted [-] shi for ready-made rice, and the other [-] shi would be delivered to the door tomorrow. , the two are very different.
But Mr. Li was a guest, and Gu Rong couldn't really do anything to him, so he could only watch Shopkeeper Zhong chatting and laughing with this person, and waited for the assistant to pile the three hundred shi of rice into the cart.
When the goods were loaded and the shopkeeper Zhong wanted to send Mr. Li away, Song Qianyuan suddenly walked out of the grain and rice shop.
In his hand was a short knife, which had not yet been sheathed.
Song Qianyuan leaned against the door and gave Shopkeeper Zhong a cool look.
Shopkeeper Zhong was startled, not daring to look at him, and quickly looked away.
Mr. Li saw Song Qianyuan standing at the door with a Shura face. He flipped the short knife in his hand and played with the knife neatly. Finally, the tip of the knife fell into the sheath. His expression and posture seemed to imply threats. .
Mr. Li couldn't help feeling guilty, and got into the carriage. The servants around him shook off the reins, and soon the carriage drove away.
"Master," Song Qianyuan quickly turned back, leaning into Gu Rong's ear and said, "There seems to be something tricky between Mr. Li and Shopkeeper Zhong, so Xiaoqian will go and follow Mr. Li to see who is in it. what happened."
Song Qianyuan was very close to Gu Rong, his face was next to Gu Rong's ear, and the breath from his nose sprayed against Gu Rong's ear.
Feeling the heat, Gu Rong's ears gradually turned red. He forced himself to calm down, discerned what Song Qianyuan had just said to him, and coughed lightly: "Then you go, pay attention to safety."
Song Qianyuan chuckled and said, "It's the young master."
"Master Zhong, lend me the horse at the door."
After finishing speaking, Song Qianyuan went out quickly, got on his horse, and called out: "Drive!" Then he followed that Mr. Li secretly.
Seeing Song Qianyuan leave, Wei Hanyuan was a little confused.
Gu Rong turned around and whispered the matter to Wei Hanyuan.
Wei Hanyuan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and said, "Fortunately, we have a little money today."
"Yeah, it's okay." Gu Rong walked outside the door, watched Song Qianyuan's back for a while, and didn't turn around until one person and one horse disappeared at the corner of the street, and returned to Wei Hanyuan's side again.
