Chapter 70: Tung Oil Poisoning

Li Jincai's side is arranged, and Li Zhenniang's side is digging a pit.

In this way, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

In the next few days, the goods were delivered smoothly, everyone performed their own responsibilities, and everything seemed extraordinarily calm.

Zhenniang's life is also very calm, she gets up early every day, goes to work after breakfast, goes to see the seventh grandmother first, and then chats with the aunts in the seventh room for a while.

After that, he stayed in the ink room, and when he had nothing to do, he rested in the small pavilion, which was very leisurely.

When she was more free, Zhenniang simply stayed at home, chatting with her grandmother, mother-in-law, Uncle Jingkui, and sister-in-law, teasing Xiaoguan'er, who is now more than two years old and almost three years old, which is the time for Coke.

Of course, more often than not, I was chatting with my grandfather.

As Luo Wenqian said in his letter, if you want to develop the ink industry, it is impossible to be confined to Huizhou at one time and one place.

"Grandpa, I heard Uncle Jing Dong say, you were also a man of the year in Nanjing, and I heard that you also served as the vice president of the Hui Chamber of Commerce?" Shen Shizheng, before dinner, Zhen Niang helped her grandfather to walk around the yard, and the grandfather and grandson chatted while walking, and Zhen Niang asked with a smile.

"It's not as you Uncle Jingdong said, our ink industry is still one of the largest in Huizhou. But when I arrived in Nanjing, it was a land of gold powder, not to mention anything else, just say that our Hui Gang, salt industry, tea industry, silk industry, wood industry, plus pawn industry, any one of them is the number of brands in the country, compared with them, our ink industry is nothing, your grandfather and I are a small businessman, and the ordinary people are a character? It's just that he helped several adults make ink, and Li Mo got the right to pay tribute to ink at that time, so he was promoted by everyone to serve as a vice president. It's a pity that as soon as Gongmo had an accident, the Li family was squeezed by several ink merchants in Nanjing. had to withdraw from the Nanjing market, now Nanjing. Li Mo's name has long been a thing of the past. ”

Speaking of which, Mr. Li's shopkeeper also had to sigh regretfully.

"Grandpa, rest assured, Li Mo will not just shrink in Huizhou." Zhen Niang said with a grin.

"You girl has a big heart." Old shopkeeper Li said with a smile, this granddaughter Old Shopkeeper Li is very satisfied, but she is young after all, plus they have no right to speak in the clan, so they can't help this girl, the girl is weak, and she wants to take Li Mo away. It's hard.

Of course, at this time, he will not hit this girl. Some things are one thing to do or not, and another thing to succeed or not. If you work hard, you will have no regrets, this is life.

This is the perception that Mr. Li has come over in his life.

The two were chatting, but they heard a noisy cry outside.

"What's wrong?" Zhenniang muttered and helped her grandfather to sit down on the side. Then he opened the door and looked out.

And he saw a group of people, men and women, old and young, coming from the cave of the city gate. There are also two carts on board, and there are also an elderly couple and two babies about three or four years old sitting on the carts.

The people on the cart looked flushed and lay there humming. A baby's calf was exposed, and Zhenniang looked a little edematous.

The two men on the side took care of it. There was a woman wiping tears from her eyes.

And at this time. The whole crowd was excited, and all of them looked very angry.

"Go to them. If the Du family doesn't talk today, we won't finish with them. A big man at the head shouted.

"yes, it's not over with them." And all the people should be in peace.

"What's going on?" The Li family was opposite the door, and Huaide's sister-in-law leaned out and asked.

"Sister-in-law, have you ever bought oil from the Du family's oil mill? Let me tell you, the oil in the Du family oil mill is unbearable, and the few people on the board car are poisoned by eating their oil, let's go to them to ask for an explanation. The big man said to Sister-in-law Huaide.

"What? Is there such a thing? I bought the oil at Dujia Oil Mill some time ago, and I haven't finished eating it because of the residual oil, and I haven't opened the jar yet. Sister-in-law Wilder jumped.

"If there is such a thing, you can send the oil to the medicine hall for testing." The man said.

With a wave of his hand, he led a group of people towards the Du family oil mill.

And here Zhenniang was also frightened, and was about to turn around and go back to the house to take a look, but she almost collided with her sister-in-law, and Du Shi was also shocked: "Sister-in-law, is there such a thing?" ”

Because this oil mill was opened by the Du brothers, the people in the city gate cave were already poor, so they walked the way of the Du family, and the Du family could buy it cheaper, so some time ago, there were several families to buy oil from the Du family.

"I don't know, can't I? Our family has always eaten oil from the oil mill, so it's all right. Du Shi said with a look of surprise at this moment.

"Have we ever bought oil recently?" Zhen Niang took a deep breath and asked Du Shi.

"Yes, yes, yes Du Shi hurriedly said.

"Sister-in-law, you scoop a spoonful of the oil you bought recently." Zhen Niang commanded, she just looked at the illness of the people on the cart, it was very similar to tung oil poisoning, and in addition, wasn't the oil mill squeezing tung oil recently, maybe the two were together.

Now we have to check whether the oil is mixed with tung oil, if it is true, we have to quickly notify other people who buy oil, this oil can not be eaten.

Zhen Niang thought about it, and said to the Wu family again: "Grandma, where is the alchemy set of things in my cousin?" ”

"What about it in a corner of the Little Ink Workshop? What do you want to do with that? Wu asked.

"I'll check to see if there's tung oil in that oil." Zhen Niang said.

It's very simple to check if the cooking oil contains tung oil, put a few drops of cooking oil on the stone, and then get some sulfuric acid, if the oil contains tung oil, then the oil will soon turn dark red and solidify.

And the sulfuric acid in this era is called green alum oil, which is indispensable for Taoist alchemy, and she saw this in her cousin's pile of things last time.

Thinking about it, he slipped into the small ink shop at home, found the pile of things from the corner, and quickly turned out the green alum oil.

"The oil is coming, the oil is coming." Dushi scooped a spoonful of oil and stood in the yard and shouted.

Zhen Niang took the alum oil out, first asked Du Shi to drop the oil on the bluestone slab, and then dripped some alum oil, sure enough, after a while, the oil became dark red and condensed into a solid.

Jane gritted her teeth angrily.

"Zhenniang, hurry up and inform the neighbors, the people who used to ask your sister-in-law to buy oil brought the oil to our house. Let's return the money to them, and let's settle things on our side first. The Du brothers are really bastards. Old Shopkeeper Li scolded with a calm face.

Although it is said that someone else found Du Shi and asked her to help bring it to buy. But no matter what, the Du family and the Du family brothers are sisters and brothers, and they took the oil from the Du family, and now that this has happened, no one else will say it, and these people who are looking for Du to buy oil will naturally blame the Li family.

"Okay, I'll go." Zhenniang nodded. Then he trotted out the door.

"Zhenniang, what's going on?" Sister-in-law Huaide, who was on the other side, took out the oil jar and said to Zhen Niang.

"Aunt Huaide, it's the oil mill that mixes tung oil with vegetable oil. You take the oil to my house, and my sister-in-law will be responsible for returning the money to you." Zhen Niang said.

"Oh, good, good." Sister-in-law Huaide heard that Du was responsible for returning the money, since there was no loss, she was happy, but she was still a little afraid, and the oil from the Du family's oil mill could no longer be asked for in the future.

Then Zhen Niang went to inform other families, Zhen Niang carried green alum oil with her, mainly in case someone ate this oil. It's good for them to go to the medicine hall in time.

Fortunately, not every family has tung oil in it, at that time, there were seven or eight companies that asked her sister-in-law to buy oil, and only three of them had tung oil in their oil. However, regardless of whether it contains tung oil or not, no one dares to eat this Du family's oil. One by one, they all sent the oil to the Li family.

Du Shi returned the money and had to apologize.

After this matter was dealt with, Du Shi was still pale. The whole person stood there a little stunned.

"What are you doing? Go back to the house, and don't blame me for not reminding you. Don't let me get involved in this mess of the Du family, since your two younger brothers have done such things, then they have to bear the consequences. Don't rely on us again. Zhao snorted angrily at Du Shi.

Thinking of her smiling face just now, I was not happy in my heart.

Du Shi was still stunned, and suddenly knelt down with a poppy, and said with a trembling body: "Mother-in-law, I'm afraid it's difficult not to involve this matter......

"What's going on?" Toshi raised an eyebrow.

Zhen Niang's heart also shook.

"My mother-in-law asked me to lend money to my brother that day, and then my mother said that my sister and brother's family let me invest in my own name, saying that the dividends of the oil mill will belong to me in the future, and I will have two more bodies of money around me to spend expenses, so I will respond, so the oil mill has my share." Du Shi sobbed.

"It's over......" As soon as he heard Du Shi's words, Zhao sat on the bench, then grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it towards Du Shi: "If you want to use money, you won't tell me, tell Da Lang, I'm angry, I'll divorce you......"

Du Shi only knew how to kneel on the ground and cry.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Du Shi came to our house, and he suffered hardships with his family, and the laughing official is so old, and he and Da Lang can be regarded as husband and wife who are full of kindness and righteousness, and they can say that they will take a break?" Wu taught Zhao a lesson. Then he sighed, this thing is very troublesome.

"Whatever the noise, be quiet, at this time, what's the use of investigating the past, or find a way to get through this hurdle." This is the speech of the old shopkeeper Li.

The room fell silent.

"Zhenniang, tell me, how will our family deal with it next?" Old Li shopkeeper said to Zhen Niang again.

Wu's, Zhao's, Zheng's, and Du's all looked at Zhenniang, Li Dalang went to Wuyuan and didn't come back, and it seemed that Zhenniang had become the backbone of the family.

"Although the sister-in-law has a part in the oil mill, it is only a small share, and the big head is still the two brothers of the Du family. After all, this matter is still on the head of the two brothers of the Du family, if you really want to calculate it, zuihou is just a proportional sharing of losses, saying that it is like this all over the world, and the Du brothers can't rely on it if they want to, so I think that as long as no one lives is killed, our family's loss is apportioned, and it is not a big deal to solve it with money. Zhen Niang said.

Old Shopkeeper Li nodded, while the Zhao family and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, listening to Zhen Niang's analysis, although it was a little troublesome, it didn't seem to be a big deal.

"However, the top priority now is to control it and not kill anyone." Zhen Niang said again, and then turned her face to Du Shi and said: "Sister-in-law, you have to go to the house quickly, tell the two eldest brothers of the Du family, first issue a notice, recall the oil that has been sold, don't let people continue to eat it by mistake." Second, let the two eldest brothers of the Du family tell the medicine hall that anyone who eats the oil poisoning of Du's Oil Mill will pay for the medical expenses, and the poor family will not be allowed to lose their lives due to lack of money for treatment. That's going to be a big deal. ”

Listening to Zhen Niang's words, the old shopkeeper Li was very satisfied, and Zhen Niang's disposal was very appropriate.

"Okay, okay, I'll go." Zhen Niang's words made Du Shi grasp a life-saving straw, she knew that if this matter was not handled well, she was afraid that her life in this family would be uncomfortable in the future.
