Chapter 171: Alone

Shu Jin looked at the few men in front of him, who were five big and three thick, and then looked at the coachman who fell to the ground, and cautiously took two steps back. While guessing who sent these thugs, he was considering the possibility of being discovered by the officials if he really killed people.

Shu Jin has been busy with a lot of things recently, not only has to travel between Yuping Town and Jiangxing County every day, but his mind is also not idle, because he also has to think about many things.

The Wenxiang Pavilion in Yuping Town has been closed, and the whole restaurant has begun to be renovated, and it is expected to reopen around the New Year's Festival.

This will be the first branch of Ippao, and in order to unify the style, the interior of the restaurant will be renovated, and the unique "open kitchen" of Ippaoku will be built, and the private room will be renovated.

Shu Jin is also teaching some of the original masters of Wenxiang Pavilion these days to the special dishes she launched when she was in Yipinge, as for the key seasonings of the special dishes, such as the nine-story tower, chili powder and other things that are not available on the market, they will be sent from the county every day after the reopening of Wenxiang Pavilion in the future. It was Grandpa K and Uncle M in the previous life who gave Shu Jin inspiration, so as to ensure the uniform taste of all dishes, and to prevent the outflow of the real cooking methods of the dishes.

In addition to these, there is also the purchase of winter vegetables, and she also went through it with Lu Ji's shopkeeper, because there will be snow next, and the number of types of vegetables that can be purchased will be reduced, so what new dishes will be launched in the future will have to be considered. Not only vegetables, but also in winter, even poultry such as chickens and ducks will stop laying eggs, so they have to purchase a large number of eggs for storage. The issue of freshness arises again.

After Yipinge has a semicolon, Shu Jin has more considerations, and now there is only one branch of Wenxiangge, and the shopkeeper Wu is also a sincere person, so Shu Jin can rest assured. However, there is more than one semicolon in Yipinge's plan.

Thinking about it, if Yipinge had to do everything herself in the future, she would definitely have to be skilled. It is impossible to say that she cooks live for everyone every day every semicolon, and it is impossible for her to manage every one. Then the semicolon is bound to have a side shopkeeper and the original cook, so that in the future, it is necessary to ensure that the semicolon does not cut corners. Don't smash the signboard of Yipinge, Shu Jin also has to think about how to improve the contract signed by the two parties.

On the premise of not harming the interests of both parties, there must be some restrictions on the personnel of the semicolon.

In addition, her sugar mill began to mass-produce white starch candy, which was more than enough for Yipinge to use. She's been thinking about expanding the mill first. To continue to process rock sugar and then start selling to the outside world, or sell it first to make money and become famous, and then slowly expand the scale?

Thinking about the affairs of Yizhuang Village, even Shu Jin was so busy that he forgot to turn on his mental power to observe the side. So, on her way back to Jiangxing County from Yuping, she was stopped.

Shu Jin went to Yuping alone today, and watched the guys transport the collected winter vegetables back to Yipinge, so she went to Wenxiang Pavilion to teach a few masters of Wenxiang Pavilion to make new dishes, so she made her own carriage and returned to the county seat.

On the way, she was sitting in the car and contemplating. The carriage beneath him shook suddenly. She reacted quickly to steady herself, and the car stopped. She lifted the curtain and asked, and the driver said that the wheel was stuck in a hole in the road.

Shu Jin looked around and found that it was on a relatively secluded dirt road leading from Yuping to Jiangxing. The road is not wide and there are woods on both sides. Shu Jin has developed a habit of preparing for the worst in everything, so his first reaction after seeing the environment is: Well, it is a good place to rob houses.

With this thought, Shu Jin looked around. I lifted my skirt and got out of the car. When I came down, I looked at the hole where the wheel was stuck, and it turned out to be a very deep hole in the earth, and it was a third of the wheel!

Shu Jin's sharp eyes swept directly towards the coachman who was driving the carriage. She hadn't paid any attention to the road before, but the driver was doing the work of driving cars. With such a big hole, he still drove the car into it, was he blind or did he do it on purpose?

Shu Jin's eyes startled the coachman, and he stammered immediately, explaining that it was still a flat road when he just looked at it, and who knew that the car would sink into a wheel when it went up!

Shu Jin carefully looked at the place where the car had sunken. Sure enough, two small pieces of thin wood were pressed under the wheels, and it was thought that someone had dug a big hole, covered it with thin boards, and then sprinkled soil so that people could not see it from the surface. The road was only one car wide, and the driver inevitably sank when he walked it. But even so, Shu Jin didn't believe the driver immediately, but coldly ordered him to get the car out.

After Shu Jin finished speaking, he walked to the side, turned his back to the carriage, and looked at the woods on the side. It is said that Shu Jin is now a person with some net worth, although Yipin Pavilion is not so exaggerated as saying that he is making money every day, he really has to make a lot of money every day. If it is a normal situation, if the female dependents of a slightly wealthy family go out, why should they bring some entourage.

But on the contrary, Shu Jin is used to being alone, so he doesn't even think of hiring some followers when he goes back and forth to Jiangxing Yuping every day. There are also several guys who go to Yuping with her every day to collect vegetables, and she doesn't have many chances to be alone. Today, she was afraid that she would stay in Wenxiang Pavilion for a long time, so she asked the work of collecting and transporting vegetables, along with the carriages and horses, to go back first. It wasn't until the car was stuck that I found out that there were only two of her drivers along the way!

Fortunately, the atmosphere of the big show is still quite civilized, and even if she shows up, she will not be gossiped about. However, with today's experience, looking at the few people who came out of the jungle, Shu Jin was also thinking about the necessity of hiring thugs.

It was already early winter, and Shu Jin was already wearing an extra layer of thin padded underwear inside, and an apricot-colored narrow-sleeved shirt outside, with a pleated long skirt of the same color. The clothes are very thick, but because they are very thin, they are not bloated at all. In order to be neat, her black hair was curled into a simple ten-hearted temples, and only a silver hairpin was symbolically inserted.

Shu Jin stood beside the carriage like this, reflecting the old carriage and the desolate woods beside it, and her clothes looked thin and weak.

Probably because of this, after the men came out, they didn't rush to move her, but knocked out the coachman three or two times and threw her aside.

"Who are you?"

Shu Jin is actually not afraid in his heart, but he has some scruples. She stepped back and calmly asked the person opposite.

There were a total of six people in front of him, all of them were men in their prime, Shu Jin dispersed his mental power when the car shook violently just now, and discovered them first, but Shu Jin was not afraid of them:

In the forest, in a certain tree, there is still a person hidden! (To be continued.) )
