Chapter 116: You do the first year of junior high school, and I do the fifteenth
After King Jing left Deyue Tower, King Chen did not leave, he still remembered what Chu Lixue said, the identity of the boss behind the newly opened Crescent Moon Building opposite was very mysterious, and he had never shown his face, he dared to argue with his daughter-in-law like this, it seems that this guy is tired of life.
Just as King Chen was about to go downstairs to the Crescent Moon Building opposite, the hall on the first floor didn't know what was going on, and the scene was very chaotic, so noisy that the guests in the private room came out to watch.
"Oops...... It's really a loss of conscience, this food in the Yuelou actually lost a life, is there any heavenly reason? A woman led a stretcher in the hall and cried.
What the? Deyuelou's dishes eat the dead? How is this possible, the vegetables are all fresh, and they are all home-grown natural and pollution-free, and the chefs who cook are also famous chefs from all over the world, and even the imperial chef, how can it be poisonous?
Isn't it the matter of the medicinal food workshop, and someone wants to blackmail it again, right? Come to the moon tower to blackmail, I'm afraid I'll die ugly. Thinking of this, King Chen was not worried, and sat on the railing with a good look.
"This lady, are you sure that your husband died of eating the food in my store?" Chu Lixue walked in from the gate with the remnant snow and the remnant moon.
Today, Chu Lixue is just wearing a green emerald smoke shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers, water mist and green grass, and a thin smoke veil of green water. As soon as she entered the door, she attracted everyone to watch, Chu Lixue was used to such a scene, as long as she came from the main gate to get the moon tower, she would attract a group of onlookers, for this reason, she usually entered through the back door.
"Chen...... Princess Chen, the dishes in your store have eaten my brother to death, you are here just in time, you can give an explanation. As soon as the man saw Chu Lixue, he lost his arrogance just now, and just talked to Chu Lixue with a pleasant face.
He wants money, but Princess Chen is not casually offended, in the case of not offending the powerful and being able to get money, it is naturally best to solve it peacefully.
"Oh? Did you really eat the food in my store and die? Let me take a look first. After that, Chu Lixue was about to walk to the stretcher, but Rean Xue stopped with a smile and said, "Princess, your status is noble, so let's go to a slave for such a thing." β
Hearing this, Chu Lixue smiled and nodded, if the remnant snow passed, they would be unlucky. I saw that Rean Xue came to the stretcher, took out a long silver needle from his sleeve, and pierced it on the thigh of the man's corpse with lightning speed, and immediately, the man suddenly bounced up from the stretcher, "......Wow, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, stab me, stab me." β
The onlookers burst into laughter, it was actually a group of liars, those people saw that they had already gotten around, and they wanted to quickly slip away, but the waning moon pulled out the sword and crossed the air, and those who came to cheat had to kneel and beg for mercy when they saw it.
"Tell me, who instructed you to come to my Deyue Tower to make trouble?" Chu Lixue smiled lightly.
"No, we weren't instructed by anyone, we just saw that the faΓ§ade of Yuelou was very big and the business was good, and we wanted to blackmail some money to live." The woman said timidly.
"Oh? Wasn't he commanded? This concubine doesn't believe it, it seems that you don't plan to tell the truth, or else, this concubine will let the remnant snow and wanyue help you wake up? Chu Lixue threatened.
"No...... No...... No, we really weren't told. The woman hurriedly kowtowed. Where do they dare to say it, if they say it, then there is still life? They shouldn't have talked about money to take over this deal in the first place, and now they regret it, can they still leave safely?
"Okay, Concubine Ben will explain to you today. Although you are wearing clothes of high-quality fabrics, but at first glance it is not suitable for your size, which shows a problem, this dress is not your own, in the person, although you are full of pearls, but the hosta on your head, the jade bracelet on your wrist, are just some ordinary jade bracelets, if it is really a rich family, how can it be? β
When everyone heard this, they nodded one after another, or Princess Chen's fiery eyes, she had already seen the problem in this, so who dared to come to Deyue Tower to make trouble? Who in Cloud City doesn't know that Deyue Tower was opened by Princess Chen, and coming here to make trouble is simply looking for death.
"The princess spares her life, in fact, we don't know who it is, the other party has been masked, and threw a bag of silver in front of us, let us play this play, and ask the princess to forgive us, we don't dare anymore." The woman and several other people knelt down and kowtowed in unison to beg for mercy.
"Let's go." Chu Lixue waved her hand, signaling that they could leave.
You don't need to ask to know that the reputation of the Yuelou has been ruined like this, who else is not the boss behind the Crescent Tower? actually played tricks on her head, so let him take a good look at whose means are higher.
The story of someone cheating money in Deyue Tower quickly spread in Cloud City, and the boss of Xinyue Tower learned about it, so he just said lightly: "I'll just say that you are doing this too much, such a little trick, you can't hide it from her eyes at all, this woman is not as simple as you see, on the surface people and animals are harmless, but in fact she is very deep-minded." β
"Master, but the big customers of Deyue Lou still haven't grabbed it, and without those big customers, the clues we want are not easy to collect." The man said softly.
"Most of those big customers are royal families and officials in the court, and Deyue Tower is opened by Princess Chen, presumably they are also willing to go to a boss restaurant who knows the roots, not to mention, the chef of Deyue Building, the chef of our Crescent Building is still not comparable."
"Master......"
"Alright, let me be quiet."
"Hey, how do you Crescent Tower do business, you actually used bad ingredients for us to eat, you don't treat us as human beings." A man downstairs shouted.
"That's it, everyone, look, there are rat tails, flies, and insects in this dish." Another table of guests shouted loudly. So much so that the guests at the neighboring tables were so sick that they even vomited what they had eaten in the morning.
"You guys are talking nonsense, how can the meals in our Crescent House be like this? You must have been sent by another restaurant to smash our signboard. The shopkeeper said coldly.
Dian Xiaoer is a smart person, I don't dare to say that it is sent by Deyuelou, only that it is sent by other restaurants, a few days ago, Deyuelou has just been blackmailed, it is really feng shui turns, today it is the turn of Xinyuelou, who dares to say, this is not the revenge of Deyuelou?
"Hmph, is there any nonsense, we only have to report to the official, and there is Jingzhao Mansion Yin to comment on the reasoning to see who is right and who is wrong." The man said coldly.
"This son, it's better not to make a big deal out of it, after all, we are opening the door to do business, and the childe's consumption today is free, we are offering a hundred taels of silver as compensation, and please let the son rest down." A man in the private room spoke aloud.
"A hundred taels of silver? Haven't you seen money when you are a son? The man said disdainfully.
"So, how much does Childe think is reasonable?" The man in the private room said in a cold voice.
"10,000 taels, the mental damage expenses, medical expenses and so on add up to 10,000 taels." The man was proud.
"What? 10,000 taels, you are simply a lion's mouth, the sum of these dishes you eat does not exceed fifty taels of silver, my son-in-law is willing to give a hundred taels, it is already to give you face, you don't want to give face shame. The shopkeeper puffed up.
10,000 taels of silver really dare to open his mouth, looking at this person's dress, he doesn't want to be a particularly rich master, 10,000 taels is not enough for his family's expenses for ten years.
"Okay, I'll give you 10,000 taels of silver." The man in the private room said lightly.
It's just 10,000 taels of silver, and it's naturally not a problem to be able to solve it with money, if it really makes trouble, his identity will be easily exposed.
"Childe, come with me to the account office to pay the money." The shopkeeper said unhappily.
10,000 taels of silver, their son is really generous enough, just give it, if all the people who come to make trouble do this, then the Crescent Building will not be closed.
Unexpectedly, the troublemaker smiled faintly and said, "Is Childe joking with me?" I'm not talking about 10,000 taels of silver, but 10,000 taels of gold. β
"What? 10,000 taels of gold, aren't you afraid that you will have a life to spend and no life to spend? A man in a strong suit rushed out and said coldly. His eyes were full of killing intent, if his eyes could kill people, I am afraid he would have died thousands of times.
"That's right, it's 10,000 taels of gold, and 10,000 taels of gold is hush money, how about it?" The man said triumphantly.
The man in the private room can't tolerate such a person anymore, and he raises the price again and again, and if it goes on like this, I don't know what the other party will do in the future.
"If you don't have 10,000 taels of gold, either get out or leave your life behind." A man's voice came from the private room.
"Hahaha, there are many people who want my life, but I'm afraid you don't have the ability to take it." Immediately, the man's face was also gloomy, and he drew the soft sword at his waist, ready to fight at any time.
Chu Lixue sat on the second floor of Deyue Tower, looking at everything in front of her, but it was a pity that she didn't know martial arts, and she couldn't hear what the other side said, and all the words said on the other side were conveyed to him by Wanyue and Canxue.
"Hahaha, princess, I didn't expect this Li Ping to play a scoundrel, he really looks like a scoundrel, but there are so many of them, and their martial arts are not as good, will Li Ping be in danger?" Remnant Xue asked softly.
"No, don't worry, Li Ping's martial arts are not weak, these people are not his opponents, Li Ping's purpose is to lure out the boss behind the scenes, hoping that he can succeed." Chu Lixue said lightly.
"Princess, what if the boss behind the scenes refuses to show up?"
"Then add another fire, so that the business of Crescent House can no longer be done." After speaking, Chu Lixue stopped speaking, but continued to watch the development of the situation on the other side......
