Sick beauty crying bag does not want to be the villain

After the lie was exposed, Qiu Wu was completely silent, and turned his head away with sullen expression on his face, as if he was very dissatisfied with what Ding San said.

Gu Rong thought about it for a while. Men like men. There is a saying called "Longyang is good". Song Qianyuan said that the book was "Longyang Ji", and he also knew that it must be about the point between men and men. Combined with Ding San's words, Gu Rong already understood what they meant.

Gu Rong said to Qiu Wu: "How many times have you had private meetings with others while shopping? Have you ever delayed things?"

Qiu Wu was stunned for a moment, and said truthfully: "It is true that there have been so many times, but young master, Qiu Wu has never delayed anything!"

Gu Rong nodded and said: "Then you just said that you are friends with that person, you are deceiving the young master."

Qiu Wu's face turned red and white.

Ding San thought that Gu Rong wanted to punish Qiu Wu, and there was a smug smile on his face.

Gu Rong looked at Ding San again: "Why do you mess around with other people's private property?"

Ding San was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Master, I want to find evidence. As a man, he has private meetings with other men, isn't it disgusting?!"

Gu Rong said indifferently: "Where is the nausea?"

Ding San was speechless for a moment.

After a while, he said stiffly: "This is not in accordance with the rules, let alone etiquette!"

"Which rule says that men and men are not allowed to meet in private, and which etiquette says that men and men are not allowed to love each other?"

"This..." Ding San stopped for a moment.

Gu Rong asked Qiu Wu: "Do you and that man really love each other? Has there ever been someone else between you and him?"

Qiu Wu swore: "It's the young master who loves each other sincerely!"

As if he was afraid that Gu Rong wouldn't believe it, he said anxiously: "Brother Sheng and I grew up together, and we have one heart and one heart for each other!"

"Will you marry a wife in the future?" Gu Rong asked.

"Of course not!" Qiu Wu's eyes widened. "I made an appointment with Brother Sheng. None of us will marry a wife in the future. We want to live together like this for the rest of our lives..."

As he spoke, he was a little depressed: "We were opposed by our family because of this, so we fled to Jinzhou. Brother Sheng has already saved a sum of money. When we have money in the future, we can buy a small room together. house, we can live together.”

Gu Rong nodded and said, "I hope what you said is true."

"Did you hear that?" Gu Rong turned to Ding San again, and said, "The two of them don't affect others, and they love each other sincerely. There's nothing shameful about that."

"But...but..." Ding San couldn't refute.

But he just felt sick.

"Even if a woman and a man have a private meeting outside, no one else has the right to interfere except their parents. The young master can't control this matter, but you two, one stole other people's belongings, and the other lied to the young master. One month's money as punishment. Do you have any objection to that?"

Ding San wanted to say more, seeing Song Qianyuan looking at him coldly behind Gu Rong, he was speechless for a moment.

For some reason, the new servants in their house are afraid of the nursing home next to Gu Rong. According to Xiaocui, the maid who came here from the capital with his wife and master, Song Qianyuan always looks indifferent to Xiaocui, There was no smile on his face, and it was said that Song Qianyuan once killed a tiger with his bare hands in a hunting ground.

What a skill, what a horror!

Ding San apprehensively accepted Gu Rong's punishment.

"Yuansheng." Gu Rong turned around and said.

Yuan Sheng hurried forward: "Master, Yuan Sheng is here!"

"Change the room for these two, and you can arrange it so that they won't quarrel next time and delay things."

"It's the young master."

After finishing the matter, Gu Rongcai and Song Qianyuan walked outside the gate together.

While waiting for Wei Hanyuan, Gu Rong didn't know what he was thinking, and was quite absent-minded.

Soon Wei Hanyuan came out and boarded the prepared carriage with Gu Rong.

This time the carriage was not as luxurious and exquisite as last time, Gu Rong and Wei Hanyuan each drove to a carriage, and stopped at the door of "He Ru" grain and rice shop.

Wei Hanyuan got out of the car, waited for Gu Rong to come over to join her side by side, and the two entered the grain and rice shop together.

There were two guys in the store entertaining customers. Seeing Gu Rong and Wei Hanyuan coming in, they hurriedly greeted them: "What do you two customers want to buy?"

These two looked like distinguished guests.

Wei Hanyuan wore a thick snow velvet vest and a long skirt on her lower body today, and the delicate hairpin on her head swayed with her steps, she looked like a lady from a wealthy family.

Not to mention Gu Rong, his face was almost buried in the thick fur of his cloak. His complexion was snow-white. Recently, he has gotten better and better in Jinzhou, and his complexion has become much ruddy. It looks like he was brought up by education. master.

Wei Hanyuan sat down on the chair prepared for the guests by the staff.

Gu Rong sat next to him.

The man served them hot tea very discerningly.

Wei Hanyuan said: "What kind of rice do you have here, can you introduce it to me?"

The man asked, "Do you want to buy good rice or ordinary rice?"

Generally good rice is only bought by wealthy people, since Wei Hanyuan asked this question, the clerk just replied.

Wei Hanyuan said: "Bring me both."

The guy went down, and after a while, two small bowls with different colors but the same exquisiteness were brought up on the tray.

The waiter picked up one of the jade-white bowls and said, "This rice is plump in shape and has a faint fragrance. After steaming in the pan, the grains are distinct, like pearls and jade, and it is crispy and soft in the mouth."

The man picked up another brown-black bowl: "This rice will expand after cooking, and the taste is not as soft as the previous one. However, it will not stick to the hand when it is hot, and it will not regenerate when it is cold. It can be boiled repeatedly with water."

The two kinds of rice really have their own characteristics.

In fact, Wei Hanyuan just took a look at it. Obviously, these two types of rice are not only sold in the store. The staff saw that Wei Hanyuan did not seem to have a particularly clear purpose in entering the store, so he deliberately picked the best-selling two kinds of rice in the store. Introduce to Wei Hanyuan.

Here, Wei Hanyuan was talking with the clerk, when she saw a woman with patched clothes coming in from the shop, she was holding a cloth bag in her hand, her shoulders were slightly bent, and she said to another clerk in the shop, "Buy rice. "

When the man saw the woman, he quickly put down his work and came over: "Mother Wang, is it still the same?"

"Yes! Yes..." Wang Ma handed him the cloth bag in her hand.

The man took the bag and went to the back room. After a while, he came out with a bag full of rice.

"Take this well, Wang Ma, I still have three buckets of good rice here, but moths are born, so I can't sell it. You can take it back, dry it in the sun, wash it, and cook it for the children."

"This...how embarrassing..." Wang Ma refused.

Only then did Wei Hanyuan realize that the guy was carrying another small cloth bag in his hand.

"It's nothing, it's not much. No one wants these good rice if it's wormed. It's a waste to put it in our store. It's a pity to throw it away."

"Yes... yes, it's a pity to throw it away." Wang Ma muttered to herself, and finally accepted the small cloth bag that the clerk stuffed for her with confidence.

After giving the money, Wang Ma turned and left. Wei Hanyuan raised her head and asked the guy standing beside her, "What kind of rice did that woman buy just now?"

The man smiled dryly: "Ma'am, you are joking, those are the worst brown rice, you don't like it."

Wei Hanyuan nodded, understood.

In order not to trouble the guy, Wei Hanyuan bought a bag of rice from "He Ru", got into the carriage with Gu Rong, and returned to the house.

In the afternoon, Song Qianyuan didn't know what Wei Hanyuan had sent him to do, and he didn't come back until dinner time.

Wei Hanyuan waited for him in the main hall, and Gu Rong sat beside him.

"Ma'am, young master." Song Qianyuan said as soon as he entered the room.

Wei Hanyuan nodded and said, "What did you find?"

Song Qianyuan arched his hands and said, "The reason why Shopkeeper Zhong sold rice mixed with sand has been found out."

According to Song Qianyuan, there is indeed a reason for vicious competition in Zhong's doing so, but another reason is even bigger.

"What's the reason?" Wei Hanyuan asked.

It turned out that it was because shopkeeper Zhong, Li Ji and several other grain and rice shops in Jinzhou had connections with people from the government.

Jinzhou is relatively close to the capital, and there are several fortresses. If there is a war on the border, the imperial court will collect food from the surrounding areas of Jinzhou as soon as possible.

If it is a land of fish and rice, it should be in the south of the Yangtze River, but those places in the south of the Yangtze River are too far away, the transportation of grain and rice is inconvenient, and the capital is at the foot of the imperial city, so it is necessary to maintain sufficient surplus grain in the city, so it has become normal to urgently dispatch grain to areas such as Jinzhou.

Most of the time, the imperial court collects grain from private merchants. Although the price will be lowered as much as possible, it is not that there is no money to be made. All of these affairs are managed and allocated by the Jinzhou military government. Therefore, Jinzhou Several grain and rice merchants in the state will sell the grain and rice as good quality and sell them to the government. Look at the points.

Because of such dealings with the government, shopkeeper Zhong has the confidence to make false accounts in front of Wei Hanyuan, and even join forces with Li Ji and other grain and rice shops to crowd out "foreign shops" like "He Ru".

"So," Wei Hanyuan said, "Is it true that they mixed sand into rice to lower the price?"

"Yes," Song Qianyuan said, "rice with the same weight can get higher profits, so that they can compete with 'He Ru' on price and win back some customers. Even in the military rations collected by the court, they will properly Add some sand, as long as the military government in Jinzhou doesn't care about it, or even has connections with higher-level officials, and it goes up layer by layer, basically no one can easily pursue this matter except the emperor."

This is troublesome.

Wei Hanyuan couldn't help but raised her hand and rubbed her forehead again.

She thought it was just a competition between shops, and if the matter directly involved the court officials, she really couldn't change the shopkeeper Zhong immediately.

After they chatted, the dinner in the kitchen was ready, and the servants did not serve the food first, but first brought up two bowls of bright and clear rice.

"Ronger," Wei Hanyuan looked at Gu Rong, "Try this rice, is it really delicious?"

Gu Rong knew that the rice was bought from "He Ru" today.

Usually, the rice they eat in their house is of course provided by Wei's Grain and Rice Shop.

Gu Rong took a sip and said, "It's really delicious."

Wei Hanyuan sighed, and the worry between his brows became even more worrying.

After dinner, Gu Rong and Song Qianyuan went back to the hospital together.

Wei Hanyuan was so worried, and Gu Rong naturally saw it. He walked all the way, thinking about what else he could do to help her.

"Little Qianzi..." Gu Rong asked Song Qianyuan involuntarily, "If it were you, how would you deal with it?"

Song Qianyuan paused, and said: "I will beat up the disobedient people directly and throw them out."

Gu Rong: "..." This is indeed Song Qianyuan's style.

only……

"Now that people from the government are involved, and we are no longer related to Gu Guogong's mansion, if we just beat shopkeeper Zhong and others, I'm afraid it will cause more trouble."

After Gu Rong finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Song Qianyuan.

Song Qianyuan didn't say anything, just looked at him with a smile.

It is true that Song Qianyuan's personality is very suitable for being a high-ranking person. In his eyes, all troublesome things seem to be nothing. Although he has extraordinary skills, he is by no means a reckless man with nothing but strength.

Unable to get an answer from Song Qianyuan, Gu Rong sighed like Wei Hanyuan.

"Young Master, don't sigh," Song Qianyuan finally said, "If Young Master really wants to solve the problem, Xiao Qianzi will accompany you again tomorrow."

"Where are you going?" Gu Rong looked back at him.

Song Qianyuan smiled slightly: "He Ru."

If you really want to solve this problem, where to start would be a better choice.

How about this shop, when I think about it, there are many contradictions.

For example, it has been open in Jinzhou for a year. It should be known that stores such as Wei's and Li Ji are lowering prices against it, but it still maintains its own pace. During the day, Gu Rong and Wei Hanyuan go to the store, After learning about the price of grain and rice in the store, I found that the current price of rice is not cheap under the low price of other stores, but the store still has an endless stream of customers.

Generally speaking, people like Wang Ma who went to the store to buy rice today don’t pay attention to the quality, but only to the price. Under such circumstances, they are still willing to choose He Ru, which shows that He Ru has some business methods.

Furthermore, it must not be easy to be able to open a shop that is still in full swing despite the encirclement and suppression of many grain and rice shops backed by the government.

Thinking of this, Gu Rong gave Song Qianyuan an appreciative glance, and said, "Okay, I'll do as you said."

Song Qianyuan curled his lips slightly, and the two continued to walk towards Gu Rong's yard.

As he walked, Gu Rong suddenly remembered something: "By the way, where did you put the "Long Yang Ji" that you brought from Qiu Wu during the day?"

Song Qianyuan's eyes sank slightly, and he reached out his hand to explore the sleeve where he hid the book, and said calmly, "Throw it away."
