Zhou Yi understands the seriousness of this matter very well.

He turned and went into the backyard, silent, the men still working methodically, they didn't know what was going on outside.

All the processes of black tea are done by him, and after they are done, they are sealed in boxes, so no one should be able to do anything.

What about other than that? He went to see the work of boiling the milk, and found nothing unusual, this process was only to remove the fishy smell from the milk.

The next work of pulling tea is all done by himself, and there will be no problem, as for the preparation of milk tea, he is even more cautious about this proportion, and it is completed in a reading room, and no one can see it at all.

In this era without intellectual property rights, if you want to maintain your own priority, you can only use such a primitive method, although it is very hard, but there is nothing to do.

After looking around, there didn't seem to be anything wrong with him, he walked in the place where the ingredients were stored, there was a bucket of milk that had not been processed in any way, and when he got closer, he could smell the smell of animals.

Seeing that there were still white foam and black hair floating on it, Zhou Yi endured his nausea and scooped a little bit with a small spoon into his mouth.

"Poof...... It's fucking bad. Zhou Yi muttered to himself.

Before he could taste it, he spit it out, and Zhou Yi remembered that he didn't have time to identify whether there was a problem with the milk, so he had to pour a mouthful of it into his mouth with a bitter face again.

This time, I finally found out that today's milk didn't taste right.

Zhou Yi went to ask for another glass of boiled milk, although this milk was still difficult to drink, but it no longer smelled fishy.

After two tastings, Zhou Yi found out what the problem was, and he led the horse he had just bought and galloped all the way out of the door.

Looking at his hurried back, Jiang Meifang, who was sitting on a chair basking in the sun by the door of the Yunwu Teahouse, finally laughed.

Zhou Yi hurried to the old farmer's house, which was the first to cooperate with Zhou Yi, it is said that his family's surname is Li, and his name seems to be Li Siwu. At that time, when Zhou Yi heard this name for the first time, he was still thinking, why didn't he just call him Li Jiu?

"Uncle Li, Uncle Li." Facing the open courtyard door, Zhou Yi shouted.

"It's coming, it's coming." Li Siwu came out of the back room with a pu fan, and when he saw that it was Zhou Yi, he immediately became happy, opened the fence of the yard and personally led the horse to bring him in.

There was still a large group of people waiting in the tea shop, and Zhou Yi didn't have time to talk nonsense to him slowly, so he asked, "You go and call all the people who delivered milk this morning." ”

Seeing that there was no expression on his face, Li Siwu didn't dare to slack off, and asked Zhou Yi to wait for a while, but after a cup of tea, he called eight people and said to Zhou Yi: "We picked up the milk this morning, ah yes, there are two more, when I went to look for them, they said they were sick, so they didn't come." ”

Zhou Yi's face darkened, and he sneered: "You can still pick dozens of catties of milk in the morning, but you get sick before noon?" I'm getting sick so fast. ”

Several other people also looked at each other, Zhou Yi cleared his throat and said, "Okay, those people will talk about it later, let me ask you, are all this milk that you just squeezed out this morning?" ”

Everyone nodded yes, Li Siwu said: "This is my own family, it is definitely a real person, Xiaodi can pack tickets, every morning we get up and milk the cow on the third watch, and we definitely dare not make a mistake." The young master treats us well, and the milk money is also giving more and more, we all thank you, Xiaodi still wants to give the young master a longevity ranking, please come back, every three high incense ......"

Zhou Yi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "Forget that thing, I can't stand it, don't invite it, we are a fair deal, you provide me with milk, I will give you money, it is justified, nothing else." By the way, there was nothing unusual when you went to deliver the milk this morning? ”

Everyone recalled it carefully, and as soon as Zhou Yi's words fell, Li Siwu shook his head and said, "No." ”

One of them said, "It's nothing today, but yesterday a middle-aged man came to my house and said that if I mixed half of the milk with half of the water, not only would I get double the money, but he would give me a few more dollars, which would be worth a lot of milk." ”

Zhou Yi's face changed and asked, "What happened later?" ”

The man smiled and said: "Although Xiao Di has never read, but he also knows that this thing can't be done, young master, you trust us to make us money, how can Xiao Di still play tricks on you?" Xiaodi refused on the spot, and he didn't take this matter to heart. ”

Zhou Yi said: "It seems that things are very clear, let's go, let's go and see those two sick people, they have been working with me for so long, and now they are sick, they must always care about it." ”

These two families are at the other end of the village, and they need to cross a field, Zhou Yi rode a horse and walked on the slippery ridge, one step at a time, the speed was not fast, but those old farmers didn't care, and went straight in the muddy water.

It took a while to get to the first one, but when he saw that the door was closed, Li Siwu called a few times and no one answered, he turned his head to look at Zhou Yi and said, "They are not at home." ”

Zhou Yi waved his hand and said, "Nonsense, you have only been here, why are you not at home for a while?" What can they do at this time? Knock the door open for me. ”

"This ......," Li Siwu hesitated.

"If you don't do it, then I'll do it myself." Zhou Yi got off the horse, directly kicked down the half-person-high fence, went into the courtyard, patted the closed gate, and said: "Listen, the people inside, I'm Zhou Yi, if you don't want me to report to the official, hurry up and let me out." ”

Behind him, Li Siwu asked in a low voice, "Hey, what's wrong with this young master today?" What's the grumpy? ”

"Who knows, just watch."

After shouting a few times and no one answered, Zhou Yi took two steps back, and then rushed forward and kicked the entire door panel out of the big hole with a direct kick.

Broke into the door, no one in the hall, came to the backyard, but saw the back door open, and vaguely saw the back of a hurried departure.

Zhou Yi withdrew and said to Li Siwu: "Who is this family?" ”

Li Siwu said: "This is my distant nephew, they all call him Qian Mazi, the surname is stubborn, he didn't have a family in his twenties, and he didn't farm, he only accepted his heart last year, bought a few cows, I let him plant a piece of land, and he did well this year, why did the young master suddenly ask about this?" ”

Zhou Yi said expressionlessly: "He ran away from the back door, you go and chase him back for me, I'll wait here." ”

Half an hour later, a group of people appeared in front of Zhou Yi covered in mud, including Qian Mazi, the runaway man who was carrying a cloth bag.

Zhou Yi sneered: "What's the matter, can't you run away?" ”

Qian Mazi was silent.

Zhou Yi continued: "Say, who asked you to do it?" ”

Li Siwu asked, "What to do?" ”

Zhou Yi said: "All the guests I made today were not satisfied, after my inspection, I found that someone added water to the milk, just the thing who just said, someone paid him to add water to the milk, he really added, so that now the guests in my teahouse are making a commotion, and now they have not dispersed." ”

"Is that so?" Li Siwu's eyes widened, came to Qian Mazi, and said loudly: "You say, did you say that you did this?" ”

"Yes." Qian Mazi is like a defeated big attack, he regrets dying, why didn't he think about running when Li Siwu came to him for the first time.

"What a brute, the reputation of our old Li family has been ruined by you, the young master treats us well, you say, get some milk every day and send it to the past, give you so much money every day, and you don't have to do rough work, what are you not satisfied with? Give birth to these crooked brains. ”

After saying that, Li Siwu suddenly turned around, and Zhou Yi saw that he was already in tears, and suddenly knelt at Zhou Yi's feet and cried loudly.

"Young master, I'm sorry for you, I messed up the things you explained, I'm sorry for your trust. With such a relative, what kind of face do I have to live in this world, I might as well die......" Speaking of excitement, he stood up at once, lowered his head and rushed over to the doorpost.

Zhou Yi's face changed greatly, and he said, "Hurry up and stop him." ”

Several people surrounded Li Siwu, Zhou Yi squatted down, and said to Li Siwu, who was still crying on the ground: "You don't want to look like this, it's not your fault, now you gave him a chance, he doesn't cherish it, and when I ask the mastermind behind the scenes, he will be punished as he deserves." Also, in the future, all my milk sources will be in your hands, and I will pay for the construction of a team, and you will lead it, and your family will go and collect milk for me one by one. ”

When Li Siwu heard this, he raised his old tearful face and asked in some surprise, "Doesn't the young master blame me?" ”

Zhou Yi smiled, he patted Li Siwu on the shoulder, helped him stand up, and said: "I blame you for what to do, you have helped me so much in the past month or so, I thank you too late, I am afraid I will need to ask you to help me do a lot of things in the future." ”

Li Siwu immediately packed the ticket: "Young master, don't worry, if there is such a problem in the future, I will cut off my head and give you the night pot." ”

The other people were also like this Li Siwu, swearing an oath that made Zhou Yi shudder when he heard it.

Coming to the person who was arrested, Zhou Yi asked, "Qian Mazi, why are you doing this." ”

Qian Mazi said expressionlessly: "People die for money, and birds die for food." ”

"Yo ho, you can still drag a few sentences, it's amazing, let's say, who made you do this?" Zhou Yi stared at him tightly and said coldly, Li Siwu's sincerity moved him, so he still dared to trust him to control the source of milk, but he would never be merciful to people with two hearts.

Qian Mazi was silent, and Li Siwu was so anxious that he jumped to his feet: "What about the young master asking you, are you dumb?" It's talking. ”

Zhou Yi snapped his fingers, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Okay, if you don't say yes, then don't blame me for being rude." A few years ago, I read a book about how to get words out of someone's mouth. Some people buy people into the ground, only expose their heads, and then cut a hole in their scalp, pour some mercury into it, and that person will feel very itchy, and after it is very itchy, he will move, and he will move and move, and his whole person will come out of the crack in his head, and the whole skin will remain in the ground, and the whole person will only be left with bloody flesh exposed, and the wind will blow like this, and the taste will ......."
