Chapter 251: No Grain to Sell

It's okay, it seems that someone has already targeted you, and your subordinates will definitely be more vigilant in the future and hold on until General Xiao comes back. ”

Xue Yi's expression was solemn, and she said extremely firmly, but at the same time, she still had a little doubt in her heart, the martial arts moves of the man in black just now didn't seem to be so simple, as if they came out of the palace.

"Do you think that looking at the moves of the man in black, it shouldn't be from Yangguo, do you think it could be that Boss Li and Boss He came to me and deliberately retaliated against me?"

Qian Qianqian smoothed the wrinkles on her body, guessing in her heart, she never thought about the capital, she always felt that the capital was too far away from her, and nothing should happen.

"Those two people probably don't have such great ability, even if they have, they don't dare, I think there should be someone else who sent the man in black."

Xue Yi didn't tell the secret of the capital directly, for fear of causing Qian Qianqian's panic, but her speculation made Qian Qianqian more and more suspicious.

"Who else wants to harm me? The man in black clearly wanted my life. Qian Qianqian was puzzled, she didn't have any enemies in Lianzhou City, she just taught Boss Li and Boss He a hard lesson.

"This matter is still inconclusive, since that person didn't succeed this time, there must be a next time, and when the general returns, everything will be revealed."

Xue Yi lowered her eyes slightly, soothing Qian Qianqian's emotions, so Qian Qianqian didn't ask any more questions, anyway, the person who was doing things behind her back would show the fox's tail sooner or later.

In order to take precautions, Qian Qianqian rested in the house, and Xue Yi kept vigil outside.

On the second day, Qian Qianqian took the letter to Lianzhou City and handed it to the housekeeper in the general's mansion.

After sending the letter, Qian Qianqian wanted to go around Lianzhou City to see if the price of grain in the city had stabilized, passing by a grain store, looking at the price on the wooden sign, her heart was happy, and when she was about to leave, the gong sounded in the grain store.

"It's sold out today, and those who want to buy food will come back tomorrow."

The men in the grain shop raised their voices, and the people at the back of the line all looked lost, sighed, and held empty sacks in their hands, and were blasted out by the men inside.

Qian Qianqian couldn't help but be surprised for a moment, when she left, Mu Tianyue said that she would definitely let the people in Lianzhou City eat, and now at noon, the grain shop is closed, it stands to reason that the grain shop is open at the hour, and it has only been a few hours, why is it not sold so soon?

Just as the guy inside was about to close the door, Qian Qianqian strode forward and stopped the guy.

The guy was stunned for a moment, looked Qian Qianqian up and down, and saw that Qian Qianqian didn't bring a bamboo basket or a sack, not like she was here to buy food.

"What for?" The guy asked angrily, seeing that Qian Qianqian was dressed ordinarily, she shouldn't be an official lady, so she didn't speak very politely.

"It's only noon, why are you closing? How many people still don't have access to food? ”

Qian Qianqian raised her head and asked unceremoniously, she knew that these guys would bully the soft and fear the hard, so her attitude was very tough.

"You woman, you manage a lot, and you didn't open this grain shop, what time do you care if we close? Get out of the way. ”

The guy sneered, raised his hand and pushed Qian Qianqian out, but Qian Qianqian was not a vegetarian, so he grabbed the guy's wrist with his backhand and skimmed it hard, and the guy screamed in pain.

"I want to see your boss." Qian Qianqian frowned, facing the few men who were about to rush up in front of her, her eyes were sharp, and there was an indescribable heroism between her eyebrows, which made people dare not make mistakes easily.

"Boss, you can see me when you meet, you let him go, otherwise we will be rude to you."

The men pointed at Qian Qianqian's face, they were all guys and family members in this grain shop, although they were afraid of Qian Qianqian, but they didn't dare to lose in momentum.

"Okay, if you dare to do it, we will go to the government and let the government investigate it to see what the hell you are doing."

Qian Qianqian didn't flinch at all, her eyebrows were raised, her eyes were full of stubbornness, she was so resolute and spicy, she was really rare for ordinary women.

The men flinched obviously, looking at each other, as if they didn't know what to do, Qian Qianqian increased the strength of his hand, and the guy's screams became more and more poignant.

"Quick, go get the boss." One of the men was the first to make a decision, and the men behind immediately ran into the back room, and a moment later, the boss came out.

"What are you doing, girl?" The boss was angry, tall, pot-bellied, with a mustache on his mouth, and silk satin, and he looked like a shrewd businessman.

Qian Qianqian let go of the guy in her hand, calmed down, and slowly walked to the boss, although her body was thinner, her momentum was not weak at all.

"Why are you closing so early? Don't sell your grain to the people outside? Qian Qianqian asked coldly, her hands clenched into fists, and the corners of her forehead were covered with bruises.

"There is not enough food in the shop, if it is sold out in a few clicks, what will be the rest of the days? Didn't the people take the money and not be able to buy food? ”

The boss stroked the beard on his chin, with a smile on his face, his eyes narrowed into a slit, although he looked friendly, but he showed indescribable cunning, and looked like a smiling tiger.

"You are talking nonsense, we have been here for several days, and we haven't bought a grain of grain, not only do you close the door early, but everyone must also buy a limited amount of food, you can only buy two buckets a day, and only a few people can buy it, and we people are only hungry."

"That is, you obviously still have a lot of grain in stock, but you don't take it out and sell it to us, and you want to keep it and sit on the ground and raise the price, you are all profiteers."

The people outside resisted, in order to buy food, they had always dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and Xiao Mohan was not in Lianzhou, they were also afraid of getting into trouble, and no one supported them, and now that they were rich, they couldn't help it.

"Do you hear that? And the people say, What more do thou have to quibble? Why do you hoard food and not sell it? If you don't tell me the reason today, I will definitely report to the official and ask Lord Zhou to bring someone to investigate. ”

Qian Qianqian is unrelenting, dealing with these businessmen, she has always had experience, and knows that these people are the most bullying and afraid of the hard, once she loses the upper hand, she will only be slaughtered by others.

The boss also fell silent, lowered his head, and turned his face to the side, as if there was something unspeakable.

"You go to report to the official, I'm here to guard, no one can run today."

Seeing this, Qian Qianqian turned her head and ordered the people for a lifetime, and someone among the people suddenly responded, and was about to turn around and run to the government, but was stopped by the boss.

"Wait, this girl, there are many people here, it's hard to talk, can you please move to the back room, I'll explain the reason to you.

The boss nodded and greeted Qian Qianqian with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and his body looked more and more round, really like a fat bear.

"What can not be said in front of the people? You let me go into the back room with you, who knows what you will do to me? I don't know if I kill people, so I don't want to be fooled by you. ”

Qian Qianqian is not a fool, she has seen a lot of the style of these businessmen, and now that Xiao Mohan is not here, she has to be more thoughtful, don't be put on a position and don't know it.

The girl laughed, how dare I do such a thing in broad daylight? If you don't believe me, let the people wait at the door, and if you don't come out within an hour, let them report to the authorities. ”

The boss said very sincerely, and there was nothing unusual at all, Qian Qianqian looked at the boss's every move, and felt that this method was feasible, after all, with so many pairs of eyes watching, the boss would not rashly attack her.

"This is what you said yourself, and the people have heard it, please bear witness for me, and if I don't come out within an hour, I will immediately go to the government and sue the boss."

Qian Qianqian faced the people outside, raised her head, her eyes were sharp, her demeanor was graceful, and her every move was quite magnanimous, not like a country girl at all, but like a famous family.

The people naturally won't refuse, Qian Qianqian has been speaking for them just now, and now she is also risking her life for them, so they all nodded their heads and cheered for Qian Qianqian.

Since this is the case, Qian Qianqian entered the house with the boss, and the guys stood guard at the door, blocking those people from the door, for fear that the people would rush in and grab food.

"Girl, please be seated."

The boss led Qian Qianqian to the table, raised his hand and made a "please" gesture, and personally poured Qian Qianqian a cup of tea, with a flattering smile on his face.

Qian Qianqian sat down slowly, but she didn't move the tea in front of her, she didn't come to drink tea, but to find out the facts, so she turned a blind eye to the boss's flattery.

"It's just you and me here, you should explain."

Qian Qianqian raised her eyes and glared at the boss, her eyes were full of inquiry, although her voice was soft, but it revealed an indescribable majesty, this posture was quite Xiao Mohan's style.

"Girl, I know you, you are the owner of the hot pot restaurant before, you have a good personal relationship with Boss Mu, you often correspond, and you seem to be able to talk to General Xiao."

The boss glanced at Qian Qianqian, the smile on his face dissipated a little, but his attitude was still respectful, the reason why he was able to let people throw Qian Qianqian out just now was because of this.

"Yes, now that you know everything, then don't hide it anymore, those grains were taken out by Boss Mu to help the people, but not for you grain merchants to have crooked thoughts."

Qian Qianqian didn't hide it, she didn't want to move out of Xiao Mohan and Mu Tianyue, but since she was recognized, she simply admitted it and saw what the boss was going to say.

"The girl doesn't know, but having said that, it's very difficult to do, in fact, those people outside who haven't bought food, it's okay to be hungry, as long as they don't starve to death, the current year is not good, the business is not good, we businessmen also have to plan for ourselves, don't we?"

A hint of cunning flashed in the boss's eyes, his thick brows were lightly raised, and his face was full of indescribable greed.

"What do you mean? Where did you get all that food? ”

Qian Qianqian looked at the boss's face, and felt more and more that something was wrong in her heart, and her face became vigilant.
