Sure enough, human nature cannot stand the test. The liar who originally bit his neck and didn't say anything about it, sighed in such a series of heart-to-heart questions, and lowered his head: "I'll go and surrender, you go and report to the official." ”

The next step is to wait for the yamen to come and arrest the prisoners, and escort them to the county government for interrogation according to the procedures.

During this period, the liar probably thought that this was the case anyway, so he simply broke the jar and confessed everything.

It turned out that as Su Qingluan expected, Liu Sheng's condition suddenly "took a sharp turn for the worse" was not a real deterioration of his condition, but that "Lang Zhong" secretly acted on his own hands.

That charlatan is not entirely swaggering, and he does have two brushes in the treatment of bruises.

However, he felt that treating injuries such as broken feet and twisted arms for these flat-headed people was not a rare incurable disease, and the consultation fee was naturally limited.

And once after meeting a fake Taoist priest who was used to cheating, the two hit it off and went to a rich family's house to cheat.

The specific method is that the fake lang used the patients he had treated to give himself the name of "Traumatic Holy Hand", and used a little money to let the two beggars spread this name in the downtown wine shop.

The wine shop happened to be opened near the rich man's house, so the old man in the family broke his foot and asked this "traumatic saint" to see a doctor.

This fake man looked at his legs and was conscientious, but he took the opportunity to check his pulse and smeared some drugs similar to numbness on the old man's wrist without a trace.

Then, on the grounds that "the medicine needs to be changed every day", this Lang Zhong came to "diagnose the pulse" every day for treatment.

After a few days, the old man's foot injury was almost healed, but he felt that his arm had no strength for no reason, and he often felt numb, and when he was stabbed by a sharp weapon, he didn't feel pain.

And at this time, it is time for the fake Taoist priest to appear, he has actually practiced in the Taoist temple for a period of time, otherwise those salutes and gossip steps cannot be so standard. But later he was kicked out because he overturned the precepts, so he relied on "exorcism" to deceive all year round.

The rich man was stunned by his use of the "blood rune paper", and took out a large sum of money to "suppress evil spirits and drive away ghosts".

And because after the "exorcism", the fake Langzhong no longer came to the door to "diagnose the pulse", and the symptoms of soreness and weakness on the old man's hands naturally gradually subsided.

So the rich man hyped up the fake Taoist priest as a "half-immortal" and "heavenly master", and even made the liar famous in that area for a while.

In this way, the two of them made a lot of money by relying on such evil ways, but they also knew that the exact same number of "exorcisms" was too many times to make people suspicious, so they could only claim that they were "traveling around" and cheating in different places.

This time, the two felt that in a poor and remote place like Lefeng Town, there must be no knowledgeable people, and it was easier to start, and they could "deceive for a while".

And the Liu family was not originally on their list of "target customers".

The reason is very simple, if you want to slaughter customers, then of course you are picking fat sheep to slaughter. And the Liu family, who lived in a dilapidated wooden house in a narrow alley, these two liars felt that there were not a few drops of oil and water at all, so they didn't even look at it at first.

But because since helping the Su family deal with the sewerage, the Liu family has gradually had a little savings, and they are frequent visitors to the "Rejuvenation Hall" that can only afford to be sick if they are either rich or expensive, these two liars have targeted the Liu family.

What's more, after the two of them "stepped on a little", they found that although the family was surrounded by walls, the temperature suddenly dropped for a few days, and the demand for cheap and stomach-warming street snacks such as water soup increased greatly, and it doubled!

The shortage of soup has led to a significant increase in the amount of raw materials that need to be processed, but Su Qingluan, the main cutter, has been busy with the jam in Xie Fu recently.

There is no way, Su Qingluan can only put all this extra work on Liu Yunniang.

At that time, Su Qingluan was actually very guilty when she said this to Yun Niang - this little girl is only fourteen or fifteen years old! In the modern world, I am still a middle school child! I have so ruthlessly squeezed the value of her surplus labor!

As a migrant worker who once forced Haha to earn medicine fees for himself, Su Qingluan took in the substitution, and then decided: give overtime pay! Give double the overtime pay!

So during this time, Yun Niang's workload and salary have doubled, and Su Qingluan even gave three taels of silver as a "diligence bonus", which made Liu Yunniang smile so much that she couldn't see her eyes.

The salary was paid, but the consultation fee of the "Rejuvenation Hall", which was originally the most expensive one, dropped on the contrary - Liu Sheng's condition gradually improved, and the frequency of consultations naturally did not need to be as frequent as at the beginning.

Because of this, the Liu family has saved more than a dozen taels of silver during this time, which is only three taels of silver for a family of five to eat for a month, and a dozen taels is a lot of money.

It was precisely because of the dozen taels of silver saved that the two liars noticed the Liu family. What's more, Yanagi's legs and back have some problems themselves, so they gave the fake man a chance to take advantage of.

Then, the same scam was staged again, but the two scammers did not expect that this time the scam was kicked to the iron plate.

After listening to the whole thing, Su Qingluan couldn't help but sigh: these two thieves targeted them because the Liu family helped Su Qingluan, and they were arrested because of Su Qingluan, so they had to say "Heaven is a good reincarnation, who will be spared by the sky."

Not long after, Xi Niangzi led the official messenger to take the fake Taoist priest away, and naturally, the fake man was also indispensable.

Later, Su Qingluan learned from Liu Yunniang that the fake Taoist priest really sold the fake man in line with the principle of "dead Taoist friends do not die poor Tao".

But the irony is that although it is also a fraud, the fake Langzhong has also treated many bruises and injuries in the process of "wandering around", and according to the laws of the Sheng Dynasty, he can be sentenced lightly.

On the contrary, this fake Taoist priest, under the pretext of "exorcising evil spirits", secretly hid a lot of stolen money, so the amount of money defrauded was more than that of the fake man, and in the end, even if the "confession" could reduce the crime, it still did not reach the level of being exempted from exile and hard labor.

At that time, when Su Qingluan heard the whole story, he only felt infinitely embarrassed, but he also felt that the wicked had their own harvest.

But this is a later story, not a table.

Let's say that Su Qingluan saw that the matter of the Liu family came to an end, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Liu Yunniang, who came out to see her off: "Fortunately, this money was not lost in the hands of the scammer, otherwise I don't know how long it will take for you to move out of here." ”

"I can't move for a while," Liu Yunniang shook her head, "Recently, we are looking for a yard that is not so remote in a moderately priced area, and it will take a few days to clean up the dust and place some utensils when we find a house......"

Su Qingluan sighed: "It's a pity that I've been busy enough these days and can't come to help you move." ”

"You've helped enough!" Liu Yunniang sighed, "If you hadn't seen through the true face of the liar, our family would have been deceived, and we would have to be grateful to Dade!" ”

After a pause, Liu Yunniang looked at Su Qingluan with some confusion: "When did you see that this is a fake Taoist priest - even my father and aunt, who walks the rivers and lakes all year round, didn't find out that he was wrong." ”

Su Qingluan sneered when he heard this: "You forget, he himself said that he himself is a Taoist priest who practices in the Taoist temple - although he was kicked out for breaking the precepts." But he was indeed a Taoist priest, which is true, how can Uncle Liu and Xi Niangzi see that it is 'fake'? ”

After thinking about it, Su Qingluan still told the truth, "Actually, when you said 'please master' at the beginning, I thought that this person was a liar nine times out of ten." ”

Seeing Liu Yunniang's puzzled gaze, Su Qingluan explained: "Take a step back, this person is really a capable 'master', so since he can pinch and calculate, and knows yin and yang, why don't you seek some fame and fortune for yourself, and make so many taels of silver by wearing a dirty broken robe." ”

"A dozen taels of silver is a lot!" Liu Yunniang sighed.

"But for those who really enjoy the glory and wealth, it's a drop in the bucket."

And so it is.

Liu Yunniang has been following her father and mother since she was a child, even if she is just an ordinary ordinary person, but she has not seen the extravagant appearance of those rich children who parade the streets in the bustling capital and spend a lot of money.

Dozens of hundreds of taels and one feet of gorgeous clothing were thrown into the soil without mercy when they were broken, and many people froze to death in the cold weather because they were not clothed; In order to eat a bite, a lot of manpower was used, and a few horses and more than a dozen people were killed......

Gathering her thoughts, Liu Yunniang looked at Su Qingluan, and became even more confused: "Since this is the case, why did you still do your best when you heard that I chose the 'sacrificial sacrifice' for that liar?" "And the quality of the selection is excellent.

Su Qingluan blinked, his expression was very innocent: "But aren't all these chickens, ducks, and fish left-from the beginning, I was 'selecting high-quality ingredients for my friend's house'!" ”

Liu Yunniang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed "poof". Thinking that Su Qingluan said that she had been very busy recently, Liu Yunniang took Su Qingluan's hand: "Speaking of which, I have rarely seen you come to the town to set up a stall recently, what are you busy with?" ”

Su Qingluan thought about it, hid her ultimate goal, and only said that an unattainable nobleman took a fancy to her craftsmanship and asked her to make a horse of jam and take it back to the capital for the nobles to enjoy - of course, it was also paid.

"As you know, these people are used to eating delicious food, so I can only try my best to make that jam. But I definitely can't manage such a big thing alone, so I plan to recruit some workers, but there are a lot of applicants, and how many people can use it, and we have to see again. ”

As he spoke, Su Qingluan told Liu Yunniang about his general idea of "interviewing" these applicants.

Liu Yunniang nodded: "When dealing with those who are rich and rich, you must indeed be careful - you must not be hard-hitting." "Otherwise, it's an egg hitting a stone.

"And how many people are signing up now?"

"Thirty or forty, huh?" In fact, people have been signing up one after another, so the specific number is difficult to count.

Liu Yunniang lowered her head and thought about it, and suddenly raised her head: "Do you want me to help you?" ”
