Chapter 11, the smoke and water people

The Wuyu River surrounds a small town in the south, and the river surface is surrounded by water vapor all year round, so the town is also called Yanshui Town.

Zhu Man lives in the east of the town, his body is strong and dark, he has a little strength, and he hides some shrewdness in his appearance.

And he happened to be favored by the old tailor, and he also promised his daughter Li Guerlain to him.

This old tailor Li Chang can also be regarded as a discerning talent, Zhu Man is not only diligent, but also conscientious, and soon learned the old tailor's craft.

However, Zhu Man's talent in management is much better than Li Chang, and he soon made the tailor shop prosperous, and hired a few tailors, and he became a real boss wholeheartedly.

On this day, according to the customer's requirements, Zhu Man discussed some details with Tailor Zhang, sat on the chair carved from pear wood, picked up a cup of tea and tasted it slowly.

Since becoming a shopkeeper, Zhu Man has fallen in love with this "upper-class" habit, drinking a cup of tea every time, calculating how much money has been credited to the account today, and he is as happy as a fairy.

Li Jiaolan was helped in by a young woman, the young woman's name was Huang Xiang, she was the wife of Tailor Zhang, with quick hands and feet, and was invited by Zhu Man to be a handyman to clean up the shop, and by the way to act as Li Jiaolan's maid.

Although Li Jiaolan is not from a big family, she has read a lot, and her reason is great, although her appearance cannot be regarded as extremely beautiful, but fortunately, her skin is white and her temperament is excellent.

Since Zhu Man married Li Jiaolan, he loves this beautiful wife very much, and because Zhu Man himself is a rough person, he respects this wife very much, and now that Li Guerlan is pregnant, she directly doubled her salary to Huang Xiang, so that she could take care of Li Jiaolan by the way outside the store.

The reason why he didn't spend money to start another person was that it was difficult to find a woman in the town who was as nimble as Huang Xiang, and Zhu Man was a person who could plan the plate, so he simply let Huang Xiang work part-time as a handyman and a maidservant.

"That young man today is really interesting, but it seems that he should be the son of a rich family, I didn't see the jade wrench he wore in his hand, it looks very valuable!" On the way back, Huang Xiang kept telling Li Jiaolan about the young man.

Li Jiaolan smiled silently, but she also felt that the young man Huang Xiang said was indeed very interesting.

This young man is Shangguan Liu Yan, who came to Yanshui Town with his master.

At this time, Li Jiaolan and Huang Xiang had returned to the Four Seasons Tailor Shop.

"I should have invited that boy to the store to sit down. Huang Xiang suddenly said with annoyance, "I'm afraid that the boy just came from out of town, wouldn't it be just right to invite him to our store." ”

"Xiang'er, you are now married to a wife, you have to speak a little measured, otherwise your family is fine, and it is easy to provoke gossip when outsiders listen to it. Li Jiaolan said seriously.

Although this Li Guerlan and Huang Xiang are already *, they are only eighteen or nineteen years old.

Huang Xiang is still a girl, but Li Jiaolan is much more mature and stable.

When Tailor Zhang saw Huang Xiang coming back, he suddenly remembered something, so he said to Huang Xiang, but actually to the other three people: "Ah Xiang, do you remember when we passed by Lujiao Lane when we went home at dusk yesterday?"

"Why don't you remember, or I found Liu Fat Man sitting in that corner first, to be honest, this Liu Fat Man really made his family uneasy, he disappeared for three months inexplicably, and became an idiot when he came back, I saw him hiding in the corner of the alley and eating a chicken raw yesterday, really, it's quite infiltrating!" Huang Xiang remembered that Liu Fatzi's mouth was full of blood, and couldn't help but take a sip.

When Li Jiaolan heard this, she couldn't help frowning, Zhu Man saw this, and immediately said to the two Tailors: "Don't mention these useless, then Liu Fat Man is a fool, what do you care about him." ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't have the heart to delve into the matter.

At this time, a person came running in a panic and said to Zhu Man: "Hurry up, Boss Zhu, Liu Fatzi has killed someone, and it is next door to Yufumen Restaurant." ”

After the man finished speaking, he rushed to the front again, as if to convey the news of Liu Fatzi's murder door to door.

As soon as Zhu Man heard this, he felt the need to take a look, explained the work to Tailor Zhang, and asked Huang Xiang to take good care of Li Jiaolan, so he walked towards Yufumen.

Yufumen is in the west of the town, the most prosperous area of Yanshui Town, and Zhu Man plans to move the store over after the New Year.

When Huang Xiang heard that there was a murder, she didn't feel scared at all, but felt very interesting, and wanted to go and see the excitement.

After soaking in the ears of Li Guerlan, Huang Xiang was let out, but although Huang Xiang was naughty, her mind to take care of Li Jiaolan did not change at all, in case Li Jiaolan felt uncomfortable, just her husband's stupid appearance, where could she help, so although Huang Xiang wanted to fly to the scene of the killing, she also had to pull Li Guerlan forward, although Li Jiaolan is now pregnant and must be very careful when walking, but Huang Xiang does not feel that Li Guerlan is a burden.

Zhu Man naturally arrived at Yufumen first, squeezed in from the crowd, and first saw the corpse of a man in yellow lying on the ground, the flesh and blood were blurred, Zhu Man recognized that this was the bearded Qi in the town, usually rich and unkind, Zhu Man couldn't help but feel relieved by this person's death.

At the same time, I saw Liu Fatzi who was tied up by everyone with a thick rope, this guy was not only bloody, but also full of blood, everyone felt that this Liu Fatzi was extremely dangerous, and he should be sent to the county government immediately, as for Liu Fatzi's family, except for his mother Sun Auntie crying bitterly, others, including his brother and sister-in-law, also felt that Liu Fatzi was handed over to the county master, and after the murder was convicted, the Liu family would not have such a monster who likes to eat raw meat.

Then Zhu Man met his old buddy Chen Jing, Zhu Man's fabrics came in from Chen Jing, and the two had business contacts and friendship at the wine table.

"Boss Zhu, you're here too!" Chen Jing smiled at Zhu Man.

"You came early enough, tell me what's going on, why did this Xiao Liu kill Qi Dabeard for no reason?" Zhu Man asked with a stomach full of questions.

"You don't even have to say it, you just happened to see the whole thing. Everyone knows that this Xiao Liu has become stranger since his disappearance was recovered, and no one will take the initiative to provoke him. Who knows that this bearded man doesn't know if he is stupid to eat big fish and meat, or which tendon is wrong, and he humiliated Xiao Liu. This Xiao Liu seems to be really angry, and he pounced directly on Qi Huzi's neck. You also know that we are usually bullied by this bearded man, so when Xiao Liu pounced, we didn't stop him, who knew that he wouldn't stop him. Xiao Liu didn't even have a sense of proportion, and bit his beard to the point that everyone found out that he had committed a big deal, and they were afraid that Xiao Liu would bite again, so they simply tied him up. At this time, Chen Jing's face showed a little joy, obviously he felt that it was a good thing that Qi Dabeard was bitten to death.

And it is not bad that Xiao Liu was executed by the government, so that Yanshui Town will not have the wicked Qi Huzi and the weird Liu Fatzi. The town was at peace.

At this moment, a big man rushed out of the crowd, this big man had also disappeared, it was Li Feng of the blacksmith shop, after he was lost and returned, his temperament changed greatly, he was usually honest and honest, he became short-tempered, but he could still hold back, and his strength became infinite.

Li Feng rushed into the crowd and opened the crowd around Liu Fatzi with his big hand, Li Feng picked up Liu Fatzi and said, "Leopard, let's go." ”

When everyone saw Li Feng behaving like this, they had already expected that Li Feng and Liu Fat had fallen into the evil spirit, and some of them quietly left the scene, and then when they reappeared, they had axes and kitchen knives from nowhere.

Everyone exchanged glances with each other, and they wanted to surround each other with all their might, no matter how strong this Li Feng was, could he beat a group of young adults with axes and kitchen knives?

That Li Feng hugged Liu Fatzi, and suddenly thunder light appeared from all around his body.

Seeing this, everyone dared to step forward and let Li Feng rush out, but it happened that Li Jiaolan and Huang Xiang rushed over at this time.

When Zhu Man saw that Li Feng was about to slap Li Jiaolan away with one palm, he was desperate in his heart.

At this time, Li Jiaolan directly turned into an afterimage.

When he reappeared, a teenager held Li Guerlan and looked at everyone from a distance and smiled.

Isn't that young man Shangguan Liuyan?
