Chapter 114: He's not!
"Hiss~!"
"This, this cake is so poisonous!"
Looking at the chicken that had just pecked some broken cakes that Han Cheng had poked down with a wooden stick, and was lying on the ground and constantly kicking his legs, and after a while, there was no sound, and the people around couldn't help but gasp.
Han Cheng couldn't help but be a little frightened, this is a dead man!
He has only seen such things in TV series or novels, but he didn't expect that now he actually encountered it.
While letting everyone who had come into contact with these two cakes wash their hands vigorously, Han Cheng learned more news.
“…… I said why did Sun Ergou keep crying, and I thought it was because my brother came to deliver clothes after being angry with the family...... I didn't know that the donkey day sent such poison! The old man also accompanied two handfuls of tears......"
Lao Liu Tou is talking here, yesterday Sun Ergou's brother came to send things to Sun Ergou, and scolded indignantly while talking, feeling that that guy's shameless behavior had tarnished the friendship in his heart towards his eldest brother.
At the same time, I also blamed myself, feeling that I was not optimistic about the door, which led to such a thing, if it wasn't for the three donkeys, I was afraid that it would have caused a catastrophe yesterday.
"Yesterday, the man asked for directions at the head of the village......"
The people in the village and in the salt works began to tell Han Cheng some of the information they knew about the man yesterday.
"Sun Ergou is a native of Shanyang County, Wuzi Township, Sanheli, and Sunjiawa, his parents died early, and his eldest brother and sister-in-law pulled him up, four days ago, he came to the salt field to apply, worked in the factory, and was arranged there to filter salt water, and three donkeys, Zhang Liujin...... Stayed in a dorm ......"
The person in charge of the recruitment of the salt factory is talking about the information about Sun Ergou recorded when he was recruiting.
“…… Ergou, this child, usually looks honest, and he works diligently... Who knew to do such a thing, I looked at it like there was something hidden inside..."
Aunt Liu said this, it was still a little unacceptable for Sun Ergou to do such a thing.
“…… This is a package that came in yesterday, and it contains a set of clothes, and a pair of shoes......"
After Han Cheng came over, all kinds of news began to be summarized to him.
Han Cheng opened the blood-stained package, revealing a patched outfit and a pair of polished straw sandals with a hole in it.
The clothes are on the large side, and the shoes are relatively large.
Staring at the clothes and shoes, and then thinking back to the various news he had gotten, Han Cheng had a better understanding of this matter.
"Let's go, take me to see Sun Ergou."
He put the clothes and shoes back in the package, wrapped them, and carried them in his hand, and said to the people.
Sun Ergou was locked up in the warehouse where he was going to set fire.
The storeroom of the Qingque Salt Works is now very empty, and there is not much salt in storage.
This is mainly due to the fact that every afternoon, the salt produced here is shipped to the county town for sale the next day.
In the next two days, the salt shortage in the most populous county and Shanyang County will be alleviated to a certain extent, and after the people's hearts are settled, they will separate the salt and transport it to Shenwu, Yunnei and other places to alleviate the salt shortage there.
According to this trend, it is basically impossible to store too much salt in the warehouses of salt factories in recent times.
However, this is good, the supply exceeds the demand, and they can make more money on their side, and they can exchange the salt produced for money and cloth as quickly as possible.
At this time, Sun Ergou was tied to a pillar in the warehouse, and the hole on his head was smashed out by three donkeys with stones, and he was already scarred and not bleeding.
His head drooped, his loose hair hanging low, covering his face, looking lifeless.
A few people from the salt field were here, and they made a great contribution last night, but the three donkeys who ran with diarrhea at the last moment because of too much force were also there.
Since he knew last night that the person who was arrested was Sun Ergou, he has been staying here since he washed his body and has not left.
"Brother Cheng, Brother Dawa."
After seeing Han Cheng and Luo Shixin come in, the three donkeys, who looked haggard, shouted.
Sun Ergou, who was tied to the pillar, also raised his head, but as soon as he lifted it a little, he lowered it again.
"Three donkeys, you did a good job last night, and made a great contribution to the salt farm, if it weren't for you, our salt farm would not have suffered a big loss this time."
Han Cheng walked up to the three donkeys and patted him vigorously on the shoulder with his hand, affirming and encouraging what the three donkeys did last night.
The third donkey nodded, feeling a lot better, but when he saw Sun Ergou who was tied to the pillar on the side, his heart became entangled and complicated.
"You guys go out first, and I'll take care of the things here."
Han Cheng said with a smile to the people who had been waiting here all night in the warehouse, and patted the three donkeys on the shoulder again to reassure him.
Han Cheng spoke, and everyone in the room got up and left, leaving only Han Cheng.
"Don't worry, it's okay, he's tied up, and I'm not helpless."
Han Cheng said to Luo Shixin, who was not very reassured.
Luo Shixin walked out at this time, and closed the door according to Han Cheng's instructions.
After the door was closed, the warehouse was completely quiet, and Han Cheng did not speak immediately, but stood in front of Sun Ergou and looked at him without saying a word.
This wordless silence made the atmosphere oppressive, and for Sun Ergou, it was even more unbearable for him than Han Cheng punching and kicking him or shouting and scolding him.
"It was someone from the Wang family who ordered you to come, right?
After a while, Han Cheng spoke, but instead of speaking harshly, he looked flat.
Sun Ergou, who lowered his head, didn't say a word, and he didn't have any special reaction.
Han Cheng didn't pay attention to him, but continued to say to himself: "That's right, these people shouldn't let you know their identity. ”
"I heard, you were brought up by your eldest brother and sister-in-law? Your brother is very nice to you, right? ”
Hearing Han Cheng talk about his brother and sister-in-law, Sun Ergou reacted again, and his lowered head moved.
"Are they really nice to you? It's really good for you, how could it make you do such a thing? How could you be given a cake that is adulterated with poison? Let you die? Someone who is good to you will treat you like this? ”
Han Cheng chuckled and continued to speak, with mockery in his voice.
"He's not my brother! He's not! My brother and sister-in-law ......"
Sun Ergou, who had been hanging his head down, raised his head suddenly, and roared at Han in an emotional voice.
"What about your brother? Arrested? Or is it controlled by the rest of the way? They use this to threaten you and make you do it?
Letting you die after you're done? In exchange for your brother's peace? ”
Han Cheng continued to speak without much change in his tone.
