Chapter 149: Door-to-door threat

"Master, our rice shop has been sealed."

came so fast, I thought that Meng Shi could last a few days, but she really looked up to her.

Lin Xiaojiu changed his clothes, sat at the table and drank some porridge calmly, and then felt a little more energetic.

"Miss, this is left by the prince." Nanxi handed a wrench to Lin Xiaojiu.

This is what Luo Xuanze carried with him, probably because he was worried that she would be bullied.

Although Lin Xiaojiu was not ready to use his name, since it was left by Luo Xuanze, she generously put it away.

"Let's go, let's go meet that Meng for a while." Lin Xiaojiu put down the dishes and chopsticks and burped, and then went out triumphantly.

This winter, the capital seems to be particularly lively, and the city is not affected by the war on the border, it is just a song and dance.

But on the other hand, it was not so lucky, and a large number of refugees were all driven to the south of the city by officers and soldiers, away from the lively official street.

"Master, are we going to go now?"

In front of the shop, there were already a lot of officers and soldiers around, and the person in charge was not much flustered because he had been instructed by Lin Xiaojiu before, "I don't know why the officials surrounded the villain's shop, the villain did his duty to do business, and did not violate the king's law, what do you mean?" ”

The middle-aged steward said, in the face of so many coffins, it is really not easy to be calm.

Although Lin Xiaojiu had already reminded them before, his attitude towards things made Lin Xiaojiu impressed.

"Hmph, uncle, I sealed your shop, so naturally we have a reason, so I don't need to explain it to you." One of the officials at the head shouted loudly.

The steward raised his eyes and saw that there were more and more people around, and then said, "Can you be an official and just seal someone else's shop?" ”

The people around were angry for a while, because the Lin family monopolized the rice industry in the capital and raised the price of rice, which naturally caused the people to be dissatisfied, but they dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.

Now that such a rice merchant has come, not only is the rice sold cheap, but also the rice is new, and the people naturally come here to buy it.

And I heard that they also opened a porridge factory in the south of the city, so they naturally supported such a business.

"Isn't it, now this official is really becoming more and more lawless."

"Is it still at the feet of the Son of Heaven in the capital?"

"I sealed someone else's shop for no reason, is there any royal law?"

“……”

For a while, the surrounding people made a commotion, and the officers and soldiers of the group couldn't help but be a little scared when they saw that things were becoming more and more uncontrollable.

"Master, this person in charge really has some skills." Xiaolan exclaimed.

With these few words, this middle-aged shopkeeper can arouse the dissatisfaction of the people around him, and then use their influence to confront the officials.

What made Lin Xiaojiu even more impressive was that the middle-aged man from beginning to end had no expression, and he was so calm in the face of such a big battle.

"Today, if you tell the crime, the villain will go with you, otherwise, even if the villain agrees, the surrounding neighbors will definitely not sit idly by."

Those officials have always been used to acting powerful, and every time they are scared, these people are already hiding with their tails between their legs.

Why didn't I expect this shopkeeper to be so calm, and there are so many people speaking for him.

"Boss, should we settle it first?" An official next to him pulled the sleeve of the leader and whispered.

They just took Mrs. Lin's money to scare this person, and secretly put pressure on him to close the shop.

If it really makes trouble with the government, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to end it.

The official at the head was a little hesitant, after all, he took other people's money, and if this matter was not done well, it would be difficult to explain.

"What do you say?"

Seeing that the people around them are getting more and more intense, it is difficult for them to bring the people back to the government.

"Let's hide first, and then come when we find someone who is empty." The little official said in a low voice.

At the moment, even if he wanted to arrest people, he couldn't do it, and in the end, the official had to return in despair.

After the official left, the steward saluted the people very respectfully, "Thank you for your righteous action." ”

When the people saw this, they all felt that this steward was really polite.

The steward promised them that they would have a discount on the rice they would buy later, which drew cheers from the crowd.

After the crowd dispersed, Lin Xiaojiu walked into the store with Xiaolan.

"Master, you're here." The steward stepped forward with a smile.

"I didn't expect Steward Liu to have such a skill, which really surprised me. Lin Xiaojiu said.

Steward Liu had completely lost his calm at this time, and scratched his head embarrassedly, "If it wasn't for the master's instructions before, I would have been at a loss when I encountered this matter today." ”

There was a bit of respect in the words, and there was no pride in it.

"With Steward Liu in charge, I am very relieved about the business of the rice shop, but the Lin family will not be so resigned, and there is still something to trouble you to do."

Lin Xiaojiu understands Meng's family, and knows better her temperament of retribution.

Their Lin family has controlled the rice industry in the capital for so long, and they will definitely not let go of this money-making business easily.

However, the more this happens, the more she wants to take away the only profitable business.

What they had taken from her and her mother, she had to get it back little by little.

As Lin Xiaojiu said, the closure of the shop failed, so Meng Shi made an appointment to meet Lin Xiaojiu.

This is clearly a Hongmen banquet, Xiaolan threw the post aside, "Master, this is not a good thing, we don't have to pay attention to her." ”

Looking at Xiaolan's excited appearance, Lin Xiaojiu glanced at her, how could she be so excited after following her for so long.

"Why not?" Lin Xiaojiu carefully inserted the flower branch that was folded back from outside the door into the bottle.

The gentle sunlight scattered on her body, making her whole person seem much more vivid.

"Master, the purpose of those people is very simple, the slave is worried that you are gone......" Xiaolan wanted to speak and stopped.

Inserting the last flower branch in the vase, Lin Xiaojiu clapped his hands with satisfaction, got up and knocked Xiaolan's forehead, "Are you worried that I will be bullied?" Don't forget who your master is, I'm going to order this Hongmen banquet, and I'm going to give them a big gift. ”

This is a big gift, but she has been preparing for a long time.

Looking at Lin Xiaojiu's confident appearance, Xiaolan couldn't help but feel relieved.

I don't know why, such Lin Xiaojiu will always make people believe inexplicably.

Qingfeng Pavilion, the most lively restaurant in the capital, is deserted at the moment.

After the last incident, not only did it not bring down Fengtian Restaurant, but it made Fengtian Restaurant's business unstoppable momentum rising day by day.

Few people know that the Lin family is also one of the bosses behind Qingfeng Pavilion.
