Chapter 318: Reasonable Doubt
Boss Cai originally expected that Jiang Liang would not easily agree to his request, so he would offer such conditions.
The reason is actually very simple, he is in a hurry to flee for his life, the restaurant and the grange are all things he can't take away, as long as the poisoning is solved, the sky is high and the sea is wide, he has a huge amount of money, are you afraid that the rest of your life will be bad?
Therefore, Boss Cai boasted about Haikou in front of Jiang Li, and said that he would transfer these to Jiang Li.
In fact, he is just the owner of the restaurant on the surface, but he is just managing it on his behalf, and even if Jiang Liang really wants to leave, he can't take these properties for himself.
Boss Cai beat the abacus to a thief, but he did a thousand calculations, but he never thought that Jiang Liang would open his mouth so loudly, and it was 500,000 taels as soon as he opened his mouth.
If he wasn't in a hurry at the moment, he would probably directly point at Jiang Li's nose and scold.
"This ...... Isn't that too ......."
Boss Cai wanted to say that Jiang Liang's asking price was too unrebellious, and he couldn't agree, but the pain on his body reminded him all the time that if he didn't treat the disease, there was only one way to die, and his face suddenly became wonderful.
Jiang Liang saw his attitude in his eyes, and said unhurriedly: "If Boss Cai is unwilling, I naturally won't force it." It's just that...... Isn't Boss Cai's life worth 500,000 taels? ”
Jiang Liang said, deliberately showing a regretful expression, and got up to leave.
"Shopkeeper Jiang, please stay! I do, I do! It's just 500,000 taels, which is nothing at all! ”
As he spoke, Boss Cai immediately took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and respectfully handed them to Jiang Li.
"Shopkeeper Jiang, please check it."
Although Boss Cai's heart was dripping with blood, in order to save the rest of his life, he could only give up.
He kept comforting himself in his heart, no matter how much money he had to earn and spend it, it was useless, it was better to use it to buy his life, and it was worth the money.
Thinking about it like this, he felt suddenly enlightened, and the original pain seemed to be alleviated.
Jiang Liang looked at Boss Cai's uncertain face, sneered, and then looked towards Yuehua.
Yuehua understood, and immediately stepped forward to take the silver ticket and counted it, but it took a moment to count it properly, and nodded at Jiang Li.
"Ma'am, no problem."
"Okay, then Boss Cai, please later, I will personally cook a dish for you to taste."
Saying that, Jiang Liang didn't wait for Boss Cai's reaction, got up and walked straight away with Yuehua, leaving Boss Cai waiting in place anxiously.
He heard that Jiang Li's cooking could cure incurable diseases, so he had no choice but to try his best in desperation, but after the money was spent, he began to lose his heart.
Boss Cai couldn't sit still, and began to wander around the room, recalling what happened for a while, trying to figure out how he was poisoned, and then worrying that Jiang Liang would lose money if he didn't do anything.
He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but Jiang Liang heard a voice that he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the mission of life and death and successfully saving himself. Based on the host's good performance, you will receive a special reward from the Kitchen God system. ”
"Shennong Baicao?"
Jiang Liang didn't expect the system to issue this kind of reward, and suddenly frowned, she had never heard of such a thing.
As if he knew the confusion in Jiang Li's heart, the system panel immediately showed a strange blue and purple plant.
"Shennong herbs, after taking it, it can make people poisonous."
Jiang Li's eyes lit up when he saw this line of annotations, and he wanted to ask the system a few words, when he heard Yuehua's voice beside him.
"Ma'am, I'll send the food over now?"
Yuehua watched Jiang Liang stand in place in a daze, and couldn't help but remind him.
Jiang Liang came back to his senses suddenly, thinking of Boss Cai's ugly appearance, and shook his head with a chuckle.
"It's not over yet."
With that, Jiang Liang took Yuehua back to the private room together.
When Boss Cai saw them coming back, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to grab the bowl of clear soup in Yuehua's hand.
He knew whether he could survive or not, and success or failure was up to him.
"Boss Cai, don't be impatient."
Jiang Liang looked at Boss Cai's eager appearance, and the corners of his lips rose slightly, revealing a sly smile. "Although this bowl of soup may be able to solve your urgent needs, if you can't get rid of the disaster, I am afraid that you will repeat the mistakes of the past."
"What do you mean?"
Boss Cai stared at the soup bowl with blank eyes, and when he heard this, his face suddenly fell, and he looked at Jiang Liang with an unkind gaze.
He intuitively felt that there was something in Jiang Li's words, but he didn't know what she was referring to.
"Shopkeeper Jiang, don't play dumb riddles with me! I don't know what you're talking about......"
Boss Cai's face was pale, and he felt that Jiang Liang had taken 500,000 taels from him, and he was going to deliberately trap him.
Jiang Liang saw his appearance, and knew in her heart what Boss Cai was thinking, and she didn't care, just smiled lightly.
"Boss Cai misunderstood, I just kindly reminded you. Your strange illness is unusual, I guess that Boss Cai has been in contact with someone recently, so he accidentally contracted it, right? ”
Jiang Liang behaved very calmly, as if he was just sincerely giving advice to Boss Cai.
"Boss Cai, be careful, if there are any unclean people around you who let you get a strange disease, I may not be able to help you."
Boss Cai was originally a suspicious person, and when he heard Jiang Liang say this, he suddenly thought of Pear Blossom.
You must know that he was fine before, but since Pear Blossom arrived at Fugui Restaurant, he was suddenly poisoned.
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they will grow at an alarming rate, and at this time, Boss Cai thought of the relationship between Pear Blossom and the old Taoist.
Don't look at the delicate appearance of the pear flower, it doesn't seem to be a threat to people, but you must know that she had a lot of relationship with the old Taoist priest before.
The old Taoist priest is proficient in drug making, and this woman has been by his side, maybe she deliberately poisoned him!
Thinking like this, Boss Cai's eyes instantly became cold.
"Thank you for the reminder!"
"What is Boss Cai talking about, I didn't say anything. Boss Cai should drink this bowl of soup first. ”
Jiang Liang said, nodded at Yuehua, and Yuehua immediately handed the soup bowl to Boss Cai's hand.
Boss Cai didn't know if this soup could save his life, but he was desperate, and the dead horse was treated as a live horse doctor, and he gritted his teeth and took a bite of the hot soup.
After a while, he felt that the pain and itching on his body had lessened, and the whole person suddenly became relaxed.
Boss Cai was overjoyed, but when he thought of the high price spent for this bowl of antidote, he suddenly felt a pain in his flesh.
Not daring to stay in Qinghui Pavilion any longer, Boss Cai left in a hurry.
"Running so fast, is it possible that we are afraid that we will eat him alive?"
Yuehua looked at Boss Cai's posture of running for his life, and couldn't help but take a sip.
