Chapter 262: Bait
Listening to Jiang Liang's description, Lu Yiyue's face became more and more ugly, and she grabbed Qin Yongan's arm in fear.
She didn't expect that just a small herb could have such an effect.
"Boss Cai is doing this, is it to kill everyone?"
Lu Yiyue felt that Boss Cai was just the owner of a restaurant, even if he had any big backers behind him, he was essentially just a nobleman's subordinate.
She really couldn't understand why such a person would want to murder the people of Rongquan City.
"I'm afraid he also knows a little about this herb, and he doesn't fully know his harm."
Jiang Liang listened to Lu Yiyue's question, and thought of a detail that Sheng Yao said, the old Taoist priest obviously knew that this herb would be addictive, so he specially told Boss Cai that he couldn't eat it.
It can be seen that Boss Cai's understanding of this herb comes from this mysterious old Taoist.
"That old Taoist priest is the key, maybe if you find him, you can know why Boss Cai wants to use Kegu grass to make diners addicted. Is he just trying to make his business better, or does he have other goals? ”
Jiang Liang felt that this matter was not pure.
Maybe Boss Cai is doing this more to treat ordinary people as experiments.
She had a feeling that Boss Cai was not purely trying to harm people, but wanted to see how much effect this medicinal dish could play and what kind of impact it would have on diners.
And after he determined the effectiveness of this herb, he should have a target person who wanted to use this herb on that person.
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and she vaguely felt as if she had discovered some terrible truth.
"But fortunately, this herb is not without nemesis, there is a silver vermilion fruit that can detoxify. However, it is said that the taste of this silver vermilion fruit is not good, so it should be difficult for people to eat the antidote without anyone noticing. ”
"It's good to have a way to detoxify. If there is no way to detoxify, these people will be miserable if they are really poisoned by that old fellow! ”
Lu Yiyue was originally restless, but she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing that there was an antidote.
"So, what we have to do now is to find out the old Taoist?"
Lu Yiyue is not stupid, she knows that all this is caused by this old Taoist, if he hadn't taught Boss Cai this method, maybe everything wouldn't have happened.
"But now that they know that someone has discovered their plot, they must not dare to show their faces easily. How are we going to get him out? ”
Lu Yiyue fell into deep thought, she felt that she had never encountered such difficulties, and she felt very anxious.
"Everybody does things with a purpose. This old Taoist priest will teach Boss Cai this method, which is nothing more than seeking wealth or profit. ”
Qin Yongan saw Lu Yiyue's worried expression, and reached out to pat her shoulder as if comforting.
"This old Taoist priest obviously doesn't care about the life and death of others, and he shouldn't have deliberately taught this method to Boss Cai for the sake of harming others. And he can do it himself, he doesn't need to be in the hands of fake others. ”
Listening to Qin Yongan's analysis, Jiang Liang couldn't help but think.
"So, do you think this old Taoist priest just wants to make a fortune and run? He taught this method to Boss Cai, but it was just for money? ”
"There's a big possibility."
Qin Yongan nodded, and continued to add: "Sheng Gongzi said that this person is dressed as a Taoist priest, maybe this old man is a charlatan who makes money by some unpopular tricks on weekdays. However, unlike other liars who pretend to be gods, he does know some crooked ways that others don't understand. ”
"Maybe it's because he does have some skills, so Boss Cai will ask for him, hoping to find a way to attract a large number of customers......"
After being reminded, Lu Yiyue also diverged her thinking, and quickly understood what was going on along this line of thought.
"There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, maybe this old Taoist priest didn't think of doing this in the first place, he knows what harm this herb has. But the price offered by Boss Cai was too tempting, so he gave in? ”
"No, maybe he was originally a greedy man, but no one had ever asked him about it before."
Jiang Liang shook her head, she didn't think that this kind of guy who harmed others for his own interests had any high-spiritedness, most of them would not care about anything as long as they saw that it was profitable.
"If the other party is really such a person who sees money, things are not difficult to do. If you want to lure him out, you just need enough benefits. ”
Qin Yongan smiled slightly, his eyes determined.
"That ......"
Jiang Liang opened his mouth, but was stopped by Qin Yongan.
"This matter can't be handled by Qinghui Pavilion."
Qin Yongan shook his head and directly denied Jiang Li's idea. "I know that Shopkeeper Jiang wants to try to lure this person out, but this person must be scheming to do these things, and he must have heard of the relationship between you and Boss Cai."
Jiang Liang understood what Qin Yongan meant, this was what he didn't want her to come forward.
In fact, such concerns are also justified.
Not to mention the things that Jiang Liang and Boss Cai don't deal with, even Sheng Yao, a foreigner, can easily inquire about it, otherwise he wouldn't have just fallen at the door of Qinghui Pavilion.
In this way, this kind of treacherous and cunning character will definitely be wary of Jiang Li, lest she avoid her, and where will she take the bait.
"So what to do?"
Jiang Liang also had a headache, she knew that it was the easiest way to grab Boss Cai's handle and use this old Taoist priest as an entry point.
Although she can also let Yuehua and Ah Qi try to catch people, this is the simplest, fastest, and effective.
However, simple and crude methods are also easy to startle, in case the other party destroys all the evidence in a hurry, the previous efforts will be in vain.
It's better to lure the snake out of the hole more efficiently and foolproofly.
Jiang Liang originally thought that the restaurant's current business situation is not good, and it can indeed be used as an excuse.
Seeing that the business is about to be unsustainable, it is normal to want to find someone to help you at a high price.
But Jiang Liang also quickly thought that her superb skills were well known in the city, if such good cooking skills could not attract guests, what use could just one dish be, could it turn the situation around in an instant?
Don't say that the old Taoist priest won't believe it, she herself thinks it's a bit.
It's just that if she can't manage to lure people out, it's like a thorn in her throat that makes it difficult for her to sit still.
"You don't have to come forward, I'll do it."
Qin Yongan suddenly said solemnly: "Qianxianglou also has a branch in the city, and it is most suitable for me to come forward." It's just the next bait, and as for whether the fish can be baited, it will take a while to find out. ”
