Because of the word of mouth among the people, the poisoning of the Shengming Society's head Changzhi broke the medical hall throughout Jingzhou, and naturally this matter also reached the ears of Cao Xuan, the leader of the Qianlong Gang.

This Cao Xuan is the second-generation leader of the Qianlong Gang, this person has a magnificent figure, a bronze complexion, and clear and deep facial features, like a Greek sculpture, dark and deep ice eyes, which looks wild and unrestrained.

Cao Xuan is not the leader of an ordinary small gang and a small faction, he is the overlord of this river, this person has a wide range of soldiers, and there is also a strategist who is ranked on the Tianji list - Zuo Qiuzi.

This Zuo Qiuzi is the strategist ranked 98th on this Heavenly Machine List, although this ranking is a bit backward, but this person's intelligence should not be underestimated, it is precisely because of the existence of this person that Shen Cheng has been in Jingzhou for so long, and he has not been able to let the dark line penetrate into the Hidden Dragon Gang.

Zuo Qiuzi knew that there was a Shengming Society in Zuijiang City, which was not surprising at all, in the past few years, small gangs and small factions have emerged one after another, so it did not attract his attention, but recently, the head of this Shengming Society has been rumored to be divine by the people, which can't help but catch him a little off guard, because this person has never appeared in the Tianji List.

Cao Xuan heard that there was a Shengming Society in this drunken river city, so he deliberately wanted to destroy it, after Zuo Qiuzi learned the situation, he said to Cao Xuan: "As the leader of the big gang, it is impossible for the gang leader to destroy the Shengming Society for no reason. ”

Cao Xuan heard Zuo Qiuzi say this, and felt that it made sense, so he humbly asked: "Then according to what Mr. said, what should I do at the moment?" ”

"As far as I can see, if this person is really wise, he can first solicit it, and if it fails, then destroy it, if not, then ignore it and let it destroy itself."

"Sir's words are reasonable, I'll send a spy to investigate."

Seeing that this day is about to enter winter, this Changyu's body has become more and more cold, but fortunately, with Dr. Zhong's careful care, this person looks quite energetic.

On this day, Changyu was in the study, leaning on the brazier and reading the book, and suddenly, he heard the sound of Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng arguing outside.

"Why are you two arguing?" Changyu shouted outside.

As soon as Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng heard that it was the head of the house who was asking in the room, they hurriedly ran into the house, and Shen Zhong was just about to reach out to push the door of the study, but was stopped by Shen Cheng, Shen Cheng reminded: "Cold." ”

Shen Zhong was stunned, and only later reacted, so he and Shen Cheng shook outside the door of the study, and then pushed open the door of the study and walked in.

"I said that you two are so idle these days, you don't have to go to the hospital to help Dr. Zhong?" Changyu looked up at them and asked.

"These days, the two sisters said that their mother's health was almost better, so they went to the hospital to help Dr. Zhong instead of us, and our two men are relatively rough in their work, and they are always disliked by Dr. Zhong." Shen Zhong explained.

"You have a big heart, that flowing water is a girl, often in and out of the hospital, I'm afraid it's inconvenient, besides, even if you don't have anything else to do, you can't be blind outside in broad daylight, if this is seen by the brothers, wouldn't it be a joke."

Hearing Changyu say this, Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng both felt ashamed, it seemed that they were not thoughtful, so they didn't dare to speak out there.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Changyu knew that there must be something wrong with the two of them arguing, so he asked while adding charcoal to the brazier.

"It's for the sake of the brothers, the cook we invited these days, because of something at home, resigned, recently this meal is made to eat, although the brothers didn't say it, but there must be complaints in their hearts." Shen Cheng replied.

"The cook's business is a trivial matter, so we don't dare to disturb the head of the house." Shen Zhong answered.

"This cook, you can go to the city to recruit another one." Changyu asked suspiciously.

"Of course, we also went to the city to recruit them, once Shen Zhong went, and once I went, but the people recruited were only suitable for making a few small dishes, not for big pot dishes, so Shen Zhong and I argued."

Changyu thought for a long time, and thought: This people take food as the sky, I am afraid that if it takes a long time, there will be contradictions within the Shengming Society, and it seems that he has to go to Zuijiang City in person to do so.

"You two go with me to the city." Changyu stood up and said.

"But the master of the house, it's cold outside, I'm afraid your body can't bear it." Shen Zhong said with concern.

"It's okay, what's the point compared to the food and clothing of the brothers?" Changyu said firmly.

Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng naturally knew that no one could stop what Changyu wanted to do, so Shen Zhong went to get the cloak, and Shen Cheng went to arrange the carriage.

This was just going out, Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng found that someone was following, so they asked Changyu if they wanted to get rid of those people, Changyu signaled to ignore them and continue on his way.

I didn't see those people take action along the way, and Changyu didn't mean to solve them, which made Shen Cheng very puzzled, so he asked, "Family Master, why don't you get rid of these people." ”

"You think, the Jingzhou prefect and the bully of Zuijiang City have been dealt with by us, and now who in Jingzhou City will still worry about our little gang."

"Head of the house, you mean the Hidden Dragon Gang."

"Who else will there be besides them, this Hidden Dragon Gang leader Cao Xuan has a resourceful strategist under him, called Zuo Qiuzi, presumably this time he sent someone not to kill me, but to find out about me, if we strike first, it will give him a reason to destroy us."

Changyu sat in the carriage and analyzed, thinking: Since the Hidden Dragon Gang has begun to make some moves, let's wait and see what happens.

Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng listened to Changyu's words and felt that it was very reasonable, so they didn't ask, and when they came to Zuijiang City, Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng carefully helped Changyu get off the horse.

"Master, should we get a notice?" Shen Zhong asked.

"No matter what you do, you have to do it with your heart, how can you make a notice."

"Where shall we go, master?" Shen Zhong continued to ask.

"These good cooks are generally recruited by restaurants, but these better chefs are usually in the vegetable market."

"Why is that, master?" Shen Cheng was also very puzzled when he heard the head of the family say this, so he asked in a hurry.

"You think, if they don't know enough about how they grow, preserve, how they make and how they taste, why would they let their customers buy their own food?"

Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng thought that the head of the family was not only good at fighting, but also had a high opinion on the selection of cooks, so they helped Changyu and walked to the West Street of the vegetable market.

It is normal for people to come and go in this vegetable market, and it is inevitable to quarrel over bargaining, but it is rare to see an aunt pulling a customer and not letting him go.

The aunt pulled the man and shouted: "Everyone came to judge the reasoning, this person took my food, and he didn't pay." ”

At this time, there were more and more onlookers, Changyu was looking for a cook, so he was curious to surround him, and of course, the spies of the Qianlong Gang also followed.

The man who took the dish said, "Why do you say that I bought this dish from you?" ”

"Do you want to admit it, my vegetables are all picked from the ground in the morning, and the roots of this vegetables are still covered with mud, and the vegetables sold by others are generally washed clean." The aunt took her own vegetables and explained to everyone: "After a morning of sun exposure, other people's vegetable leaves are dry, but my family's vegetable leaves are often moisturized with water, and this vegetable leaf is still wearing water droplets." ”

The person who took the food had a little flickering eyes and a little panicked, so he quibbled: "Even if the food in my hand belongs to yours, it doesn't prove that I didn't pay." ”

At this time, the aunt also froze, and the onlookers were also next to the aunt to show the evidence that the person did not pay, and the person who took the food began to be upright and said, "Since there is no evidence, don't let go." ”

Changyu saw that his aunt was helpless and was about to let go, so Changyu stepped forward and said, "Wait." ”

Changyu carefully looked at the person holding the dish, this person was covered in alcohol, and even his clothes were wet, so he picked up this person's clothes and smelled it, it was really wine, it seemed that this person had just been spilled by wine.

The man looked at Changyu, and Changyu said, "I'll find evidence that you didn't pay." ”

Changyu was so sure because of his trust in the aunt, and he believed that the aunt was not lying.

"And how do you prove it?" The man asked incredulously, and of course the audience was also curious.

Changyu asked the aunt to take out the money she collected from buying vegetables today, and then let the people present smell it, and then asked, "Do you smell anything?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that there was no taste, and also said that they didn't understand Changyu's approach, and as the onlookers shook their heads, Changyu was even more sure that the person who took the food didn't pay.

"Money is money, isn't it true that different people's money has different tastes?" The man secretly rejoiced, thinking that this would be a testimony against him.

"Other people's money naturally has no taste, but your money does, do you dare to take out your money and let everyone smell it."

"What don't you dare." The man didn't think so, so he reached out and took out the money for everyone to smell, and after smelling, everyone covered their mouths and noses.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Changyu asked, "Do you understand now?" ”

Everyone nodded, the man was very puzzled by everyone's reaction, and Changyu's intentions, so he picked up the money and smelled it himself, a smell of wine, then suddenly realized, threw down the dishes, and ran away, the people present also saw Changyu solve the case of poisoning in Jingzhou Jishitang, so they came back to their senses and said, this is not the Mei family master of the Shengming Society, because the people are deeply grateful to the Shengming Society for giving medicine and medicine, so they greeted Changyu one by one.

"Thank you for your help this time." The aunt thanked Changyu.

"Auntie doesn't need to say much, this is a matter of Changyu's raising of his hand."

After Changyu finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but when he thought about it, it seemed that there was something to be done, by the way, the cook's business was almost forgotten, and he was disturbed by the person who stole the vegetables this time. ”

"My husband's surname is Lin, just call me Aunt Lin." Aunt Lin replied while sprinkling water on the vegetables.

"Is there anyone else in Aunt Lin's family?"

"My husband died early, the eldest son joined the army to fight, the younger son went to the capital to do business, and now I am left alone in Jingzhou."

"Auntie, would you like to come to my Shengming Club to be the head chef?" Changyu asked subconsciously.

Aunt Lin first raised her head and looked at Changyu, and then said with the attitude of thanking her for helping just now: "If the head of the family doesn't dislike my cooking skills, I'm willing to give it a try." ”

"Okay, Aunt Lin, you go home and clean up first, and we will be a family in the future."

Aunt Lin listened very warmly, so she thanked Changyu again, cleaned up the stall, and went home to prepare.
