Section 217 Wontons
Since there are interests in the world, there have been more ugly and dirty behaviors. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Six people from the Yang family died. Either a veteran or a family member of a veteran. The losses on the Meng family's side were even greater. It is said that Meng Xiong and Meng Qi have been busy counting in the past few days, and more than 30 people have died in the Meng family, and hundreds of shops in various parts of the Chu State have been smashed. All things considered, the loss exceeded hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
Money is still a trivial matter, but human life is at stake, which turns the originally simple economic dispute into an endless blood feud.
Yang Dahai reported to the government as soon as the incident occurred. However, whether it was the Five Cities Terracotta Division or the Shuntian Mansion, they all ignored this matter. Fu Yin Mo DC is a cunning guy, although he is on Yang Tianhong's side in many things, but if he encounters a tricky problem, he will not see Mo DC's shadow at all if he searches all over Shuntian Mansion. He also knew that this time the matter was very big, and the mastermind in the secret was full of energy, and it was definitely not an ordinary official like himself who could settle it. To put it bluntly, people are just waiting for Yang Tianhong bravely. Qingling jade liquid is indeed a good wine, and it also has extraordinary effects. Everyone wants good things, and the smashing and looting of the Yang family and Qingling Jade Liquid must not be accidental. Even if the government comes forward to force pressure now, maybe there will be a resurgence in the future.
What's more, even if the government intervenes, it will not have any effect. Mo DC is just an ordinary official, and since the main envoy behind the scenes can attack all the state capitals in Chu State at the same time, he must have extremely strong financial resources and energy. Even the officials of the Shuntian Mansion were involved, and the matter was completely out of control. At this time, Mo DC hid behind and remained silent, so he had nothing to do. If he stood up and said a few words to help the Yang family a little, maybe Mo Liu's head would hang in front of the door of Shuntian Mansion the next morning.
This is definitely not intimidation. Since the day when laws and rules appeared, the dark Ones have coexisted. These are a pair of diametrically opposed twins. As long as one exists, the other will never die.
Yang Dahai looked at Song Jianwei who was paralyzed on the ground, his eyes were as sharp as a blade: "To say, or not to say?"
Song Jianwei seemed to have lost his sense of hearing, and just looked at his son's wife's head in a daze with blood-red eyes. The two heads rolled squarely in front of him, leaning crookedly against each other. The person who went under the knife moved quickly. The power is just right. Both heads maintained slightly surprised expressions. He looked angry and confused. Especially the head of Song Jianwei's wife, whose lips were slightly open, seemed to be sending out a silent question mark: Dog mongrel, did you find a woman outside, and wanted to make up this kind of farce to deliberately kill the old lady and me, so that you could be happy with other fox spirits?
After nearly half a minute, Song Jianwei raised his head, turned around, and stared at Yang Dahai with extremely sad and indignant eyes. Trembling all over, a few words popped out from between his teeth: "You guys...... What a ruthless heart, such a poisonous hand. Even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go. ā
Yang Dahai spewed out a puff of smoke, and a faint sneer appeared on his face: "The eighty-three members of the Song family have all been caught by us. One did not slip out. In addition to the two who died in front of you just now, there are eighty-one left. ā
didn't wait for Song Jianwei to speak. Yang Dahai leaned forward and looked at Song Jianwei with meaningful eyes. Said slowly, "Don't look at me with such strange eyes. I know what's going on in your head. In addition to the three sons and one daughter on the Song family genealogy, you also have an outer room in Cizhou. You bought the woman five years ago and raised it over there. She is in good shape and has given you twins. Of the eighty-one people, I added these three. So, you'd better think clearly before you speak. And never think that you can just make up a story to perfunctory. Let's make it clear! This time the matter is very big, you should never provoke our Hou Ye. I know that a small role like you is actually an errand runner who stands in front of you and helps people. Of course, Xinghualou is yours, but that Qingling jade liquid has nothing to do with you. Take away people's money. Such as killing parents. You know this better than I do. It's almost the same thing that should be said, I'm a person with limited patience, and after saying so much, it's up to you to let me listen. Don't say that I didn't warn you, old man, as long as there is a lie in it, the head of one of your family members will be cut off here. If there are more than five lies, then the entire family of your Song family will have to die tonight. ā
Song Jianwei's eyes completely lost their brilliance. The previous bit of unwillingness and anger disappeared in Yang Dahai's understated voice in an instant. His teeth chattered and he asked in fear, "What if, if I say it, you...... Can you let me go, let my family go?"
Yang Dahai's face did not change at all. He snapped his fingers again, and the door opened, and another person was pushed in.
is Song Jianwei's second uncle. Another cold light swept by, and human heads rolled off the ground. The body then lost its balance and fell to the ground. The deceased's hands and feet had not yet lost their residual nerve control, and they were constantly scratching and kicking.
"That's not the answer I'm looking for. ā
Yang Dahai smoked slowly, and his voice was like a demon gnawing at dead corpses for a living: "A word of caution, don't talk irrelevant nonsense again." Also, you're not qualified to bargain with me. ā
Song Jianwei was completely paralyzed. He sat on the ground like a puddle of mud. These people in front of him are ruthless, completely beyond their imagination. At the beginning, the reason why he agreed to that person's condition and put Qingling jade liquid for sale in Xinghualou was because it was very profitable, and it was also because the person patted his chest and promised that he would definitely not bring any trouble to himself.
"I didn't make this kind of wine. That's right, Xinghualou is indeed the property of my Song family, and the wine sold before is also the best aged daughter red. Two months ago, someone sent a lot of Qingling jade liquid over, saying that he wanted to put it in the Xinghua Building to attract guests. He asked for a low price and the wine was good. I didn't think there was a problem, so I agreed......"
Song Jianwei didn't ask anything substantive. More than an hour passed, and he babbled a lot, but there was only one sentence of really valuable information.
"The other party is a man in his thirties. He looks good-natured, very good at talking, and has a jagged scar on the side of his left thumb. I only saw it when he clasped his fists and saluted. ā
No matter what happened in the capital of Chu or other state capitals, it had nothing to do with Song Jianwei. He is just an ordinary restaurant owner, if he is just greedy for a small bargain. Yang Dahai would not be so cruel. However, when he learned that other liquor stores were smashed, Song Jianwei thought that this was a manifestation of the strength of the person who brewed Qingling Jade Liquid. Although the person who delivered the wine never came again, Song Jianwei was still tempted by the huge profits, and hung up a prominent signboard in Xinghualou as "the only business name of Qingling Jade Liquid".
Is a person lying or telling the truth? This question is still very clear to Yang Dahai. Thanks to the blessing of the young master, Yang Dahai's current cultivation has reached the fourth level of qi refining. Led someone to break into Song's house tonight. Of course, I investigated the matter in detail before and after. It's just that the news I got from Song Jianwei's mouth is still pitiful.
Yang Dahai pulled out a three-edged military thorn from his back and stabbed Song Jianwei's throat. This weapon is a pattern drawn by the young master when he has nothing to do. When cleaning the room, Yang Dahai saw it on the desk, so he asked the young master curiously. According to the young master, this thing is a kind of Qimen blade, which is easy to carry and suitable for assassination. In particular, the three prismatic blood grooves are extremely lethal. Although the wound stabbed into the human body is not large, it can continue to cause blood loss. Even if the person who was assassinated did not die at the time, he would have died of blood loss.
Outside the room, heavy objects fell and snorted one after another. Yang Dahai's three-edged military thorn had been pulled out, and Song Jianwei covered the wound on his throat with both hands, stared at him, opened his lips, and barely kept his balance with his last strength. He didn't want to die. I could clearly hear the noise coming from outside. An indescribable grief and horror quickly crept through the eyes. He looked at Yang Dahai with the last of his strength, and made a slurred voice from his mouth: "You...... Lie to me......"
"There's a saying you've probably heard. ā
Yang Dahai stabbed the three-edged army on Song Jianwei's shoulder and wiped it. wiped off the bloodstains, then held Song Jianwei's forehead with his left hand, pushed him away from the dying, and said slowly: "Self-inflicted, don't live." ā
When I walked out of the room, the floor was already full of corpses. Yang Dahai did not lie. More than 80 members of the Song family are all here. From the beginning, Yang Dahai never thought of letting one of them go. Even ignorant children are tainted with sin because of the actions of adults.
Yang Si, who was dressed in black and holding a blood-dripping steel knife in his hand, walked over quickly and whispered to Yang Dahai, "There are not many clues from here. What now?"
Yang Dahai glanced at the still dark sky. Pulling up the mask from his neck, covering his mouth and nose, his cold and fierce voice did not change at all: "Song Jianwei said, it was a man with a jagged scar on his left thumb. The chaos against Hou Ye is so big, it is impossible that no one is in command behind it. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find out this person!"
......
Zhang Jiakui didn't like Chu State, but he liked the chaos made by the blind old woman by the Ningshui Bridge in the capital.
I don't know which fool came up with the name "Condensation Bridge". There is no river here, only a ditch half a meter wide. The dirt at the bottom of the ditch dried up and cracked into lumps, like the shell on the back of an old turtle. This ditch is a dry ditch, which is commonly known as a drainage ditch. Only during the rainy season does the ditch get water. It's the height of summer, and the roadside residents are pouring garbage into the ditch one by one. Luckily, this kind of thing only happened in the lower part of the ditch outside the city. There are rulers in this city, but it is quite clean.
The blind old woman's food stall was placed by the Condensation Bridge. According to people nearby, this stall has been set up for almost 30 years. The old woman was blind when she was young. It seems that I was blinded by being too excited when I was with a certain man. Men are actually overjoyed and do the same. Men who often have symptoms of shrinkage in the clinic go to seek medical treatment, but they don't know if they can be cured.
As usual, Zhang Jiakui asked for a bowl of wontons, with more shrimp skin in it, crispy green onions, and the shrimp oil floating on the soup noodles was crystal bright. Although the old woman was blind, she was very skilled in her hands, and in a moment, she piled up a mountain of wrapped wontons on the board. Half of the wonton bowl is made of fish balls, which is very rare in the capital of Chu in the southern coastal zone. The old woman's craftsmanship is good, and the fish balls are also genuine, and they are eaten with wontons in the mouth, which is very delicious and refreshing, which makes people appetize.
The old woman only came out at night to set up a stall. When Zhang Jiakui came here for the first time, he found that there were very few customers at the wonton stall. Zhang Jiakui felt very strange, so he became suspicious of his wife. He has always been cautious, and he deliberately chose a place to live in a deserted place with few people. It is far from the downtown area of the capital. The surroundings are extended in all directions, even if there is an emergency, it is easy to escape with Zhang Jiakui's years of light work.
Wonton stalls are set up every night. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't find a restaurant around, and he came back too late that day, Zhang Jiakui probably wouldn't have tasted the ravioli made by the old woman for the rest of his life. With the intention of trying it out, he asked for a bowl. Just after eating it, I was immediately full of praise. The wontons taste so good that people can't say anything, and the meat is tender and the soup is fresh, the skin is thin and the filling is large. The price is also very cheap.
Next to the house, there was a neighbor, a woman who was washing clothes on the street. She should have seen Zhang Jiakui eating wontons at the old woman's stall at night. The next day, he asked in a very strange tone, "Are the wontons delicious?" Zhang Jiakui didn't think it was a big deal, and nodded smoothly and agreed to the word "good." The woman didn't say anything more, but talked about some old things about the blind old woman, which were very trivial. Zhang Jiakui listened for a long time. I think it's just a romantic affair of a woman who didn't abide by women's morals when she was young.
It's just gossip, and you can hear it everywhere you go.
The Zhang family did not have much power in the Chu State. After all, this is not the main business scope of Zhangjia Commercial Bank. If it weren't for the fact that this incident was a little special, Zhang Jiakui would not have been transferred from afar by the head of the family to be in charge of the center. In his early years, Zhang Jiakui served as an officer on the border, and he was still a scout in charge of finding out information. Naturally, it is easy to do this kind of thing. The bastards are all trash, though. The ability to rob and coax is first-class. What's more, there are a large number of people involved in this incident. It is also very widespread. Zhang Jiakui alone knew that there were nearly a thousand people in the capital of Chu State.
The shop that should have been smashed has been smashed, and there are dead and injured on the other side, and everything has been pushed to the side of Xinghualou. It's ridiculous that the boss surnamed Song was too greedy, and he actually played the only business sign of Qingling Jade Liquid. Come to think of it. Zhang Jiakui couldn't help laughing out loud, and the wontons that had just been put in his mouth also sprayed and spit far to the ground.
The blind old woman can't see, but her hearing is top-notch. She asked slowly, "Do you think this wonton tastes bad?"
Zhang Jiakui coughed a few times and cleared his throat. Waved his hand apologetically: "That's not it." Bring me another bowl. ā
The guests were satisfied, and the old woman was very happy. The number of second bowls of wontons delivered was significantly higher than before. The old woman said earnestly: "Thank you so much for the guest officer who comes every night to take care of my old woman's business." Today's bowl of wontons is a gift from my wife to the guest officer. ā
Zhang Jiakui smiled, did not excuse himself, and began to eat with his head down. This kind of thing is very common, and for regular customers, the boss usually gives a part of the bargain. As long as you are a hawker who comes out to sell things, you know the truth of a long stream.
The night was dark, and the fire by the bridge was blocked by the bottom of the pot, revealing only a few faint red wisps, which was especially noticeable in the dark.
The blind old woman sighed slowly: "As soon as the guest officer leaves, I'm afraid it will be difficult for my wonton stall to be put down!"
Zhang Jiakui put a wonton into his mouth, and he couldn't hear the old woman's words very clearly, and asked vaguely: "Oh, why is that?"
The blind old woman sighed slowly while wrapping the wontons: "There are fewer and fewer people who eat, and you can't make money, and business is getting harder and harder." ā
Zhang Jiakui couldn't help but nodded. It's a remote location with few pedestrians. Occasionally, it is also a sparse visit. I have lived in the neighborhood for more than three months, and I have only seen less than 50 people patronize this wonton stall.
He opened his mouth and asked, "Why don't you set up a stall in another place? If you change to another place, such as the city, business should be much better than it is now." ā
The blind old woman sighed and shook her head again and again: "I can't go, and I don't dare to go!"
Zhang Jiakui glanced at the old woman's blind eyes, and had some sympathy: "I can't see the road, and my legs and feet are inconvenient, so I will hire someone to help you carry the burden together." Although the labor cost is certain, the money is still more than it is now. ā
The blind old woman laughed and waved her hand again and again: "No one else can do my business, and no one will help me." ā
Zhang Jiakuiqi said: "Why?"
The blind old woman's voice was obviously mixed with something else: "What do you think of this wonton?"
Zhang Jiakui vaguely felt that something was not right, but he couldn't say what went wrong. Instinctively, he raised his vigilance and replied, "Very good, quite good." ā
The blind old woman continued to ask, "Do you know what kind of meat is the stuffing in my wonton?"
Zhang Jiakui suddenly remembered what the pulp woman had said to him before, and the strange eyes of the neighbors around him who looked at the blind old woman. His voice trembled a little, he let go of the spoon in his hand, and swallowed: "You, what do you mean?"
The laughter of the blind old woman sounded like that of an owl that had just eaten a dead mouse: "Why should the guest officer be afraid? I am a helpless old woman, and my eyes are blind, even if I think of you, I am definitely not your opponent!" )
