Chapter 109: Hibiscus Powder
"Strange?" Jiang Cha looked at the small piece of sugar cake on the table.
I have to say that some people really can't smell the smell of this lotus root powder mixed with osmanthus, and Sheng Nanqi should be in that kind of person.
"Where did you get this?" Sheng Nanqi's gaze followed Jiang Cha to the sugar cake, and his tone was a little heavy.
Then, with lightning speed, he picked up a handkerchief and covered the sugar cake, ready to throw it away.
"Eh, eh, don't lose it, don't lose it." Jiang Cha hurriedly rescued the sugar cake.
Lost what she used as evidence.
Although it's not that she can't ask someone to buy it, it costs money to buy, and she doesn't want to pay half a penny for someone like Boss Yang.
"Where did you come from?" Sheng Nanqi accentuated his tone and asked again.
"Aunt Qian gave it." Jiang Cha didn't hide it, and hurriedly retold him about Aunt Qian and other things just now.
However, because she was worried that Sheng Nanqi didn't know A Furong, and because she was afraid that Sheng Nanqi would suspect why she knew, she didn't tell the truth about the raw material analysis.
I didn't know that she didn't mention it, but Sheng Nanqi mentioned it, "This Yanchun Lou thief is not small, the lotus root powder here is mixed with hibiscus powder, and the white powder circulating in the Western Regions has the same hallucinogenic and addictive effect, and taking it for a long time will make people dependent and lose energy." ”
"You know." Ginger Tea was surprised.
And you don't have to analyze like her, you can smell it just by smelling.
"Shouldn't I know?" Sheng Nanqi's eyebrows condensed into wrinkles, "You can't touch this thing, the imperial court has expressly forbidden the sale and use of this thing in private." ”
"Is there a clear rule?" Ginger Tea suddenly rejoiced again.
"You don't know?" At this time, it was Sheng Nanqi's turn to be surprised.
"I'm just a country girl, what can I know?" Jiang Cha touched her nose and began to pretend to be stupid, it was not easy to distinguish flowers and plants, as for the laws of the court or something, she really didn't know anything.
But it would be nice if there was a clear rule.
You don't even need an old Chinese medicine doctor to prove that this thing is harmful, as long as you can prove that it is mixed in it.
It is best to sneak into the back kitchen of Yanchun Building, or find a supplier who provides this thing to Boss Yang, and if there is both human and material evidence, in order to completely destroy Yanchun Building.
Inform Sheng Nanqi of the plan in his heart, Jiang Cha was waiting for the other party to praise him, but he didn't expect Sheng Nanqi to fall into deep thought.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Cha asked worriedly.
Sheng Nanqi sat beside her and analyzed carefully, "This thing is very vicious, you can't buy it if you want to buy it on weekdays, you can only smuggle it, if there is a supplier willing to provide it, it means that the power behind this Boss Yang is not small." ”
"Boss Ji also said that Boss Yang was a businessman before."
Jiang Cha pondered for a moment, "Are you worried that after I report it, if you find out this supplier, the forces behind it will hate me and trouble me." ”
Sheng Nanqi nodded: "Not bad." ”
"Probably not." Jiang Cha pondered, "I'm just a small restaurant owner, and this powder is used by Boss Yang, so I should only catch a sample boss when I arrest people." ”
If the supplier had really been capable, he would have escaped when Boss Yang was arrested.
Sheng Nanqi said, "Their kind of people are generally very grudgeful, Boss Yang must have bought at a high price, if you cut off their financial route, they will not let you go, and ......"
"What else?"
"I'm afraid that the forces behind the supplier are too huge, and the county government also chooses to turn a blind eye after knowing it."
Ginger Tea: That's right......
The prefectural order was inherently inactive.
"But I can't just watch this thing hurt people."
Jiang Cha rarely fell into sorrow, "How can I make others realize the disadvantages of this thing." ”
Even if you can't deal with Yan Chunlou and Boss Yang openly, at least you have to keep everyone away, not to mention that Cai Zhizhai also wants to cooperate with Yan Chunlou, wouldn't it make everyone's addiction to this thing even greater.
"You don't have to worry about this, you can buy some children or beggars to write some songs and spread the disadvantages of this thing, and over time, everyone will find that something is wrong, and they will be able to realize the harm." Sheng Nanqi suggested.
"That's all it can be." Ginger Tea sighed.
Because of this lotus root flour osmanthus sugar cake, Yanchunlou has been out of the limelight recently.
More and more people are coming here, and some people are like Aunt Qian, who feel that the taste is not like ordinary sugar cakes when they first taste it, and it is a little strange.
But more people will basically eat all the things after buying them, just like Erya, the more you taste, the more you can taste it.
Since Cai Zhizhai gave up the consignment with Sijichun and turned to help Yanchun Lou consignment, it instantly caused a wave of popularity in the town.
After a long time, some people feel that it is wrong, obviously this taste is just a better taste, not how amazing it is, why do you still want to eat it, and you feel a little sluggish if you don't buy it for a day.
At the same time, several nursery rhymes began to flood the town.
"Hibiscus is so good, Hibiscus can't sleep after eating, and she thinks about the taste every day."
"Sugar cake is good, sugar cake is wonderful, sugar cake hibiscus comes to match"
"There is no hibiscus sugar cake, and I don't eat it for a day."
At first, it was circulated among little beggars, and over time, girls who like to dance rubber bands and play tricks also spread this ballad.
Although many people don't know what this hibiscus is, this word is a bit suggestive.
After listening to this ballad, some people who usually don't leave the osmanthus sugar cake in Yanchunlou also began to wonder if this sugar cake was added with the seasoning "hibiscus", so that they could never forget it all day long.
The nursery rhyme was arranged by Sheng Nanqi for Mr. Song to be passed down in the town.
Regarding the matter of suppliers, Sheng Nanqi also called Mr. Song to discuss the matter.
"It seems that I shouldn't have gone back to the capital before, which attracted some uninvited guests to this town." Playing with a jade pendant with a family crest printed in his hand, Sheng Nanqi looked uneasy.
"The young master doesn't have to worry, some people who were originally floating in the dark come out, which is a good thing for the young master." Mr. Song was relieved, and he remembered something again, "A few days ago, a few people from the former dynasty handed over excerpts, but the young master wants to take the time to meet them?" ”
"No, these people are not loyal to me, they just want to see the jokes of the court just like me."
Sheng Nanqi crossed his eyebrows a little impatiently, "The building is declining, and the emperor's inaction will sooner or later suffer the consequences." ”
Mr. Song said: "The young master has been dormant for a long time, and the soldiers and horses are becoming stronger and stronger, and when the emperor dies, the young master will definitely have the ability to return to Beijing to win back a game." ”
Playing with the jade pendant's hand, Sheng Nanqi asked, "How is the emperor's health lately, is there a message from the court?" ”
"The young master went to the capital to arrange a few eyeliners to report, the emperor is now addicted to wine and pills, and the internal affairs of the court are handed over to some eunuchs, these eunuchs have their hearts higher than the sky, and the emperor's loss of body can't support next year."
Sheng Nanqi asked again: "What do the courtiers of Jingnei think of it?" ”
