Chapter 523: Misfortune (1st Update)

"Oh no, miss, the third young master has an accident, I heard that the Fuzhou Mansion is going to behead him!"

Two days later, when Li Hongyu and Youlan were patrolling the newly accepted restaurant to declare their sovereignty, a maid hurriedly came to look for Youlan and said coquettishly. Heaven "'Lai'." ⒉

"What did you say?" Youlan didn't have the slightest psychological preparation, and when she heard this, she was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief on her face.

"Miss, there are rumors in the market now that the third young master was caught by the Fuzhou prefect's yamen a few years ago, and the prefect has already sentenced him to death, and he will be beheaded next month!"

The maid stroked her chest and panted for breath and said urgently, "Miss, they said that the eldest young master hasn't left yet for the sake of the third young master!" ”

"How can this be, isn't the third brother out on errands?"

Youlan's face suddenly turned pale, and she muttered anxiously, "Could this be the eldest brother's excuse?" ”

Because Chen Asan has lived with Youlan in Jilong Harbor since he was a child, the two have been dependent on each other since childhood, and their relationship is naturally extremely deep, so they naturally don't want to see Chen Asan being beheaded by the government.

"Sir, I have been absent beforehand." Subsequently, Youlan blessed Li Hongyu and hurriedly went to find her eldest brother to ask Chen Asan about it clearly.

Seeing this situation, Li Hongyu couldn't help but shake his head, things were as he expected, Chen Asan got into big trouble, and was arrested by the Fuzhou prefect's yamen, Fuzhou is the provincial capital of Fujian, and it is not easy to catch people.

"Shopkeeper, tell the guys below that from this month onwards, everyone's monthly salary will be increased by 30%."

After Youlan's figure disappeared from sight, Li Hongyu said in a deep voice to a brightly dressed middle-aged man beside him, "If someone wants to find another high, they must not be stopped, and giving them three months' monthly salary as a settlement fee can be regarded as a reward for their contribution to the restaurant over the years." ”

"Mr. Liu is benevolent and righteous, and I have thanked Mr. on their behalf."

The middle-aged man is the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and when he heard this, he smiled at Li Hongyu and bowed his hand, and then changed his words, and said with a sad face, "Mr. Liu, my mother has been sick in bed for a long time, and I am afraid that time is running out. ”

"Filial piety comes first, you go to the account to pay half a year's monthly salary, and support your old mother at home." Li Hongyu nodded quietly when he heard this, and said to him in a deep voice, "If there is any difficulty at home, just ask the restaurant, you have worked here for thirty years, and there is no merit and hard work." ”

"Mr. Xie Liu." The middle-aged man immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, with a relaxed look on his face, and bowed down to Li Hongyu to thank him, for fear that Li Hongyu would not let him go.

For a good restaurant, the shopkeeper of the restaurant is very important to the restaurant because he sees the whole situation and is responsible for taking care of various relationships.

Generally speaking, the owner of the restaurant will not let the shopkeeper go easily, and usually sign a long-term contract with him, unless he has cultivated a qualified replacement before letting him leave, and even then he must agree not to work with competitors.

Middle-aged people know that Li Hongyu has just taken over the restaurant, the so-called interlaced is like a mountain, Li Hongyu definitely does not know the operation of the restaurant, so it is the time to employ people, if Li Hongyu does not agree to him, he will not be able to leave at all, otherwise the boss of the casino will not let him go.

After all, Boss Shi has promised Li Hongyu's shopkeeper and guys to keep all the guys, if Li Hongyu doesn't allow it and the middle-aged man picks on him and quits, then it will be Boss Shi's face, and Boss Shi won't let him go without Li Hongyu doing it.

Now Li Hongyu agreed to the middle-aged man's request very happily, which made him secretly feel happy in his heart, and at the same time felt sorry for Li Hongyu.

But there is no way for him to do this, he is Shi Hu's person, Li Hongyu can't reuse him, it's better to go clean than to be an eyesore here.

What is particularly important is that once the owner of the restaurant is replaced, the middle-aged man will be in a dilemma, if the restaurant is better than the current one, then outsiders will think that he did not have the heart to operate before, if the business of the restaurant is worse than now, people will say that he has no intention of operating.

No matter what he did, he was wrong, it was too difficult to keep the business of the restaurant the same as before, there were all kinds of factors involved, too much energy involved, and he really couldn't afford to spend it.

Li Hongyu knew the worries of middle-aged people, and he could have been polite to keep them, but since the middle-aged people had moved out of the old mother, what could he say, didn't he want middle-aged people to be filial?

Filial piety is the most important virtue of the ancients, middle-aged people use this as an excuse to resign to show that they have made up their minds, as the saying goes, the strong melon is not sweet, Li Hongyu naturally will not keep it, but gave him half a year's monthly salary, which can be regarded as his benevolence and righteousness.

Hearing the news of the middle-aged man's departure, many chefs and guys in the restaurant have found reasons to ask Li Hongyu for resignation.

Obviously, Shi Hu will definitely not give up the restaurant business, so he will definitely open a new restaurant, and this new restaurant is the retreat for those chefs and men.

Of course, not all of them had to leave, a cook, a guy who ran the hall and a few middle-aged men and women who were doing odd jobs chose to stay.

The cook and the guy in the running hall are children who grew up together, and they are very close to each other, and the guy in the running hall thinks that Li Hongyu is a person who can do great things, after all, he can throw away more than 100,000 taels of bets lightly, this kind of person must have a lot of skills, so he will definitely be able to break out of the world after following Li Hongyu's words.

The cook felt that what the guy in the hall said made sense, so he and the guy in the hall decided to stay.

As for the middle-aged men and women who do miscellaneous work, they belong to dispensable miscellaneous servants, they have been working in the restaurant for almost a lifetime, and someone's home is in the backyard of the restaurant, so they don't want to toss anymore and choose to stay.

Because the people in the restaurant were almost all at once, Li Hongyu had to temporarily close the restaurant and prepare things before opening to welcome customers.

Although the matter of the restaurant is very important, it is not the most urgent thing for Li Hongyu, and Chen Asan's situation is the issue he cares about.

Although Li Hongyu does not know what specific crime Chen Asan has committed, one thing is very certain, that is, Chen Asan cannot die, otherwise it will not be conducive to his appeasement of Xiaoliuqiu maritime merchants and pirates in the future.

When he returned to the private school in the evening, Li Hongyu finally learned some of the inside story of Chen Asan's case from Zhang Cheng, and it was rumored that Chen Asan was better than the red card of a Qinglou in Fuzhou, but somehow his identity was leaked and he was arrested by the government's officials.

Don't look at Chen Asan likes to mess with flowers and grass on weekdays, but his bones are really hard, and he was tortured in the prison and didn't explain anything, and then the Fuzhou government was ready to execute the son of this Haikou leader to set an example.

Obviously, Chen Adaa has tried his best, and even spent a lot of money to redeem Chen Asan, but he failed to do so.

Speaking of which, this matter is related to Li Hongyu, Chen Asan is the son of the great sea Kou The matter has been stabbed to the Fuzhou Customs Department and the Fuzhou Navy Battalion, so the people of the prefect's yamen dare not let Chen Asan go privately, although they love money but cherish their lives more, if they don't die, it is useless to ask for more money.

In the final analysis, those officials of the prefect's yamen were afraid of the Shangfang sword in Li Hongyu's hand, and the Wanli Emperor and the Tianqi Emperor successively issued edicts, not only giving Li Hongyu the Shangfang Ming Dragon Sword, but also being able to behead civil officials below the fourth grade, and the entire prefect's yamen was beheaded except for the prefect.

The reason why Li Hongyu was given Shang Fang Ming the Dragon Sword by Emperor Wanli was to ensure the smooth start and operation of overseas trade, and Haikou obviously threatened overseas trade matters, and Li Hongyu naturally managed it, which meant that once the matter of their private release of Chen Asan was revealed, then it would be difficult to escape death.

The shadow of the so-called famous tree, don't look at Li Hongyu's modest and polite, gentle and elegant on weekdays, just like a scholar with a gentle temperament, in fact, he has established prestige above the court, and the local officials are in awe of him.

It was precisely because the Fuzhou Customs Department and the Fuzhou Navy Division knew about Chen Asan's arrest that the officials of the Fuzhou Prefect's Yamen did not dare to obstruct him, which made Chen Asan publicly beheaded next month.

Although the death penalty of the Ming Dynasty was subject to review by the Criminal Department, there were several types of criminals who did not need to report to the Criminal Department and were immediately executed once verified, including rebels, Jiangyang thieves, and those who violated the maritime ban.

Chen Ah San clearly belongs to the category of people who violate the sea ban, whether he is a sea smuggler or a pirate, if he is caught, he will definitely die.

"Sir, the eldest prince seems to be mobilizing manpower, as if he is going to Fuzhou." After reporting the news circulating in the market to Li Hongyu, Zhang Cheng lowered his voice and said to Li Hongyu.

The reason why Zhang Cheng used the word "like" is because this matter was inferred from the words and deeds of the people around him, and it has not been verified, and he has no way to verify it, so it is very taboo to inquire about this kind of thing in private.

"To Fuzhou?" Li Hongyu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head helplessly, if he didn't guess wrong, Chen Adaa wanted to rob the prison to save Chen Asan, but how could the Fuzhou Prefect's Yamen Prison be so easy to break into?

Moreover...... Li Hongyu glanced at Zhang Cheng, since even Zhang Cheng could guess that Chen Ada's desire to go to Fuzhou, it meant that this matter was no secret.

Although Chen Asan is a playboy, he is very strict-mouthed, and he is not stupid enough to reveal his identity, but he was reported and arrested, which means that the whistleblower is very likely to be a certain force in Jilong Hong Kong, and wants to deal with Liu Dahai secretly.

Therefore, if Chen Adaa wants to rob the prison, the people who planned this incident behind the scenes will definitely report to the Fuzhou government, and then those people sent by Chen Adaa will definitely go and never return, intensifying the contradiction with the government.

Li Hongyu's brows frowned slightly, it seems that he has to take care of this matter, and the forces on Xiaoliuqiu should not conflict with the government at this stage, otherwise it will be extremely unfavorable to his future appeasement.
