Chapter 44: The Meng Family is in Trouble [Seeking to Read]

Wei Yi also came to Xiangmanlou with two nursing homes.

Everyone at the door was talking and pointing.

Wei Yi also roughly understood what was going on through everyone's words.

Not long ago, someone was poisoned and died of eating in Xiangmanlou.

There were five people at a table, and all of them were killed on the spot.

Now the county government has received a report and has come to investigate.

The gate of the incense building has been closed, and no idle people are allowed to enter.

Therefore, Wei Yi couldn't enter, so he could only gather at the door with the rest of the crowd.

"What can you eat to poison people?"

"I heard that I ate poisonous mushrooms, and the poisonous mushrooms in this fragrant mountain treasure used in the building, five people died on the spot."

"Poisonous mushroom, how could you be so careless?"

"No, according to the rules of the guild, there are prescribed channels for the procurement of ingredients in restaurants in the city, and you can't buy them privately, how can you buy poisonous mushrooms."

"yes, that's weird."

"Alas, nine times out of ten, someone has done it, and this is nothing new."

"Now that he has eaten people to death, Shopkeeper Meng can't get rid of it."

"Then it depends on the results of the investigation, if you can't find out who did it, then the cooking chef must be mainly responsible, and if you don't do it, you will be sentenced to hanging!"

"It's so heavy!"

"If you can't buy it, there will also be the Shanzhen Guild that will be implicated!"

"But this Meng family restaurant will definitely not be able to open, if this happens, the guild will definitely remove them, and this Meng shopkeeper may have to face a huge amount of compensation!"

"Alas, the Meng family is really miserable, and now there is only one restaurant left that can't be saved!"

"Eh, I heard that the uncle of the shopkeeper Meng has passed away, so the last umbrella of the Meng family is gone!"

"No wonder, I said how good it was that something happened all of a sudden!"

"Alas, this world!"

"The Meng family is completely finished this time."

"Yes, I won't be able to eat fragrant roast chicken in the future."

The crowd was discussing, and Wei Yi basically understood it from the side.

He didn't have to think about it to know that this matter was inseparable from Wanjia.

In the past, Wan Jia was afraid that Meng Shuilian's uncle was a county official, and he was also a parent official.

Now that Meng Shuilian's uncle has passed away, the Wan family is no longer afraid, so they begin to kill the Meng family.

It's despicable enough.

However, he had just learned the despicable methods of Na Wanzihe a few days ago, so he didn't think it was strange.

The Meng family's calamity this time is afraid that they will not be able to escape it.

Wan Jia and Zheng Zhixian were already in collusion.

The county government came to investigate, and it is estimated that the final result will be very unfavorable to the Meng family.

As those people around said, the Meng family's fragrant building is definitely going to be completely closed, and they will face huge compensation.

It remains to be seen whether Meng Shuilian will be implicated and convicted.

It can only be said that this world is too dark.

After a long time, the door of Xiangmanlou opened again.

"Get out of the way!" The servant scolded the crowd and dispersed.

Immediately, I saw a few officials escorting the restaurant and a group of people out of the gate.

The faces of the people were full of fear.

Meng Shuilian walked in the front, her face was pale, her head was slightly lowered, her eyebrows were tightly locked, and her face was full of grief and indignation.

"Shopkeeper Meng!" Wei Yi suddenly called out.

couldn't help but attract the attention of everyone around.

Meng Shuilian also looked at Wei Yi, her dim eyes seemed to light up a little, but her expression was extremely complicated.

"Shopkeeper Meng, rest assured, the sky has eyes, and the retribution is clear!" Wei Yi's eyes were firm, and he said loudly.

This time, he naturally will not sit idly by.

Last time their Wei family was in trouble, Meng Shuilian helped a lot.

The so-called adversity sees the truth.

When the Wei family was most short of money, Meng Shuilian took the initiative to send fifty taels of silver.

You know, in this world, even between brothers,

Fifty taels of silver is also a huge amount of money that can only be borrowed by making a written note.

But Meng Shuilian didn't even mention when the Wei family would return.

And the Meng family at that time was not rich.

Fifty taels is all that can be taken out on the books.

People will do everything to help you, this kindness, he Wei Yi naturally can't forget.

Now that the Meng family is in trouble, he naturally can't stand idly by.

However, Wei Yi also knew that he couldn't be too anxious at the moment.

You need to wait and see what happens and see what happens to the county government and Wanjia.

Then decide how to help the Meng family.

However, during this period, it is natural to be dotted.

The relationship that should be entrusted is also to be trusted, at least to ensure Meng Shuilian's personal safety.

The old pervert of Wan Jia can do anything.

Hearing Wei Yi's words, Meng Shuilian's face regained some of her brilliance, and she looked at Wei Yi and nodded.

After Meng Shuilian and others were escorted away, several other officials carried away the bodies of the deceased.

The last two officials to leave put a seal on Xiangmanlou.

After all the officials left, the crowd slowly dispersed.

Wei Yi also came to the Wanjian Pavilion with the two guards, but when he walked to the door, he stopped, took off the money bag he was carrying, handed it to the two and said, "The two of you will go to the county government first, take care of it, and let the other side help take care of the shopkeeper Meng." ”

"Yes, don't worry!" The two of them are in the right way.

They can also see that the relationship between Wei Yi and the shopkeeper of Na Meng is not simple.

He wanted to help the Meng family.

So after the two of them left Wanjian Pavilion, they went to the county government first, checked a little, and also inquired about the news.

But after the two left the county office, they did not return to Wanjian Pavilion, but went directly to the Guo family's mansion.

told Guo Pixiu about it.

"Very good, you two are very good at doing things, I know this matter in my heart, you go back and tell Wei Yi, let him rest assured!" Guo Pixiu said with a smile.

It's not that he's gloating, it's just that he's always wanted to befriend Wei Yi.

Now that he has such a good opportunity to perform, he naturally can't miss it.

The most important thing is that he can not only sell Wei Yi's favor, but also go against Wan Zihe, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

"You guys go back to Wanjian Pavilion first, I'll go to the county government to find my uncle later!" Guo Pixiu said.

His uncle is the chief secretary of the county government, and he can be regarded as the second-in-command of the county government.

After Wei Yi came to the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, he and Du Yujiang had a detailed understanding of the details and differences between the assessment of the seventh-grade swordsmith and the assessment of the fifth-grade swordsmith.

Du Yujiang also told him in detail.

The assessment of the seven-grade swordsmith is actually not much different from the nine-grade.

The content of the assessment and the content of the test are also similar.

In addition, there is also a corresponding sword inspection rod to test the ultimate performance of the sword.

But the assessment of the five-grade swordsmith is different.

Although the swordsmith also completes the sword in a closed environment.

But the whole process is not allowed to be watched by others.

And the performance test of the sword is also very different.

In addition to some basic tests.

The performance requirements of the five-jewel sword are different from those of the one-bead and three-jewel swords, and there are two aspects.

First: the performance stability of the sword in different extreme environments.

For example, if the sword is exposed to high temperatures or cold environments for a long time,

Then test the performance and changes in performance to see if its stability is acceptable.

Second: the resistance of the warrior's blood.

As long as the warrior reaches the seventh rank, he can extract the blood qi and pour it into the sword, so that the sword can obtain better performance.

It will even have the effect of restraining evil spirits and suppressing ghosts and ghosts.

However, the long-term infusion of the warrior's blood will cause the internal structure of the steel sword to change.

Over time, the sword will become brittle, and it may eventually be scrapped entirely.

However, an important performance characteristic of the Five Jewels Sword is that it is not afraid of the infusion of the blood of the warrior.

Even after a long period of blood infusion, the performance of the sword is still very stable.
