Chu Rong frowned slightly. Even if Li Dawa didn't explain, she knew that her own jam could not be sold. Although the price was higher, the raw materials of the jam were real. Let's not talk about those expensive things like sugar and honey. When it comes to fruits, almost half of them come from farms, not to mention taste and nutrition.
However, the owners of those shops would rather pay the breach of contract damages than lose this source of income. Chu Rong would not believe that no one was in the way. Could it be the young master of the Xiao family? But this person is more from Fucheng. Even if he is a big family, he is just a merchant. How can he let more than 20 shops break the contract at the same time?
Chu Rong thought about it carefully, but she still couldn't figure out what the problem was. However, something flashed in her mind, but she couldn't catch it. It happened that Chunmei led Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Dalin over. She didn't think about it any more, she just thought that flash of thought just now was her own illusion.
Mrs. Chen and Dalin's daughter-in-law entered the house and walked up to Chu Rong non-stop. Dalin's daughter-in-law was impatient and opened her mouth quickly, "Master, something happened to the county shop. Our fruit and vegetable shop caught fire. The vegetables and jam were not kept, and the two brothers Guicheng and Guizong at the grocery store were locked away by the yamen, saying that they were skipping work during the last recruitment. They must also be exiled or exiled."
Chu Rong stood up abruptly when she heard that, "Is there anyone in the burning shop? Where are the rest of the grocery store besides the two brothers who were locked away?"
She doesn't feel sorry for the shop being burned, at worst, it will be rebuilt before buying, but if someone dies, it will be different.
Xiao Chen shook her head when she heard the words, "No one, it seemed to be burning in the middle of the night. When our people passed by in the morning, the fire had already been extinguished, but"
Speaking of this, Xiao Chen frowned tightly, looked at Chu Rong and said, "Our people said that the house was burned strangely, and the neighbors were not affected at all, and the smoky wood smelled oily. Taste."
Having said that, even if Mrs. Chen doesn't continue talking, Chu Rong understands that this fire was intentionally set up by someone. In addition to what happened at the grocery store, it is not difficult to guess who is targeting her. Some people are planning to completely destroy their own business.
Chu Rong's lips were tightly pursed, and her mind was a little confused, but she still remembered the matter of saving people first, so she sent the eldest child to the jam workshop to say that the work should be stopped first, and the monthly payment should be paid, so it should be treated as an advance payment. Holidays, re-opening time and other notices.
Then she asked Chunmei to tell He Wen to set up the car. She had to go to the grocery store first, and the two brothers were all locked away. Not to mention the two wives, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Sun, even the godfather and mother would not be able to bear it. live.
However, just as Chu Rong was about to leave for the county, Huang Shuhai, who had gone out in the morning, came in and stopped her by the carriage.
"I'll take care of it, you wait at home." With a light tone, with a hint of indifference, Huang Shuhai frowned slightly and looked at Chu Rong, his black eyes full of persistence.
Chu Rong wanted to speak, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say. She suddenly realized that she seemed to always ignore this man. Maybe it was because she had to do everything by herself when she first passed through, and even the two nurses needed him. Support, so that after the man comes back, he is still used to solving things by himself.
Feeling the man's insistence, Chu Rong reluctantly bent the corners of her lips, took out a stack of bank notes from her bosom and handed them over, and said softly, "It's best to solve it with money, don't be reluctant."
Huang Shuhai took it, pursed his lips and nodded, "Don't worry."
Since it was Huang Shuhai who went there by himself, he didn't use a carriage, but chose to go on horseback. Chu Rong waited at home, although she felt a little uneasy, but she was not too anxious.
Huang Guicheng's two brothers were arrested on such a charge, obviously the yamen did it on purpose, if it was really related to the Xiao family, it was probably because of the money that the county magistrate took action. Thinking about it this way, she wasn't worried about the two brothers. To put it bluntly, people's safety is only valuable if they are alive, and they can be exchanged for huge benefits. Since the county magistrate is greedy for money, he will naturally not miss this opportunity.
Thinking of this, Chu Rong gritted her teeth and cursed secretly in this era of imperial power. No wonder people say that the people do not fight with officials. Just such a small seventh-rank sesame official, in this Wenshui County, is the top lord. No matter how rich you are, you are not as good as the cap on your head.
Just when Chu Rong was gnashing her teeth, wishing that her son could take the examination and come back, Huang Shuhai, who had just left not long ago, came back.
When hearing Chunmei's report, Chu Rong was stunned for a while, thinking that she had heard it wrong, but seeing the man who walked in with her own eyes, she couldn't help but not believe it.
"Why did you come back, the eldest brother and the second brother were rescued?" (RememberWebsite URL: www.hlnovel.com
