Chapter 30 The Destruction of the Pepper Grove

After Su Qing dealt with the affairs of the old woman, he asked the woman to be the steward and gave her 500 wen for a month.

Her name is Liu Sanniang, she is a widow who has learned to write, and has a pair of children under her knees.

Su Qing asked her to buy the chili peppers, and explained to her all the things she had to do every day.

"Steward, please forgive me for the inattentive reception just now. ”

Su Qing saluted the steward of the Drunken Immortal Tower, and the steward also waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

"Miss Su, my shopkeeper wants to buy a hundred catties of chili peppers from you. The person in charge explained his intention to Su Qing.

He just saw the whole process of Su Qing's harvesting of chili peppers, she bought it for one penny, and then sold it for four pennies, making a pure profit of three cents per catty.

Ten catties is 30 wen, and 100 catties is 300 wen. Before, he didn't understand why the shopkeeper valued a country girl, but at this moment he seemed to understand.

Miss Su sold the spicy hot recipe to Zuixianlou and got a hundred taels, and then earned the money from Zuixianlou to buy chili peppers.

This chili pepper is unique, so Zuixianlou needs to cooperate with her for a long time, and I have to say that Miss Su is really a good means.

And she is only ten years old now, she has this strategy, if it is a few years later, the Su family must be a different scene, maybe they will gain a firm foothold in the capital.

Su Qing asked people to weigh a hundred catties of chili peppers to the steward of Zuixianlou, and then sent him to the entrance of the village before coming back to do his own thing.

Su Qing harvested two hundred catties more chili peppers today than last time, and sold one hundred catties and left four hundred catties.

She still followed the processing procedure last time, made another 200 catties of chili sauce and dried 200 catties of dried chili peppers.

Although there were four laborers in the family, their speed could not keep up with the speed of darkness, and by the time they had finished processing all the peppers, it was already eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening.

Su Qing asked people to take the chili peppers to be dried back to the deserted courtyard to dry, and asked them to come back tomorrow to move the chili sauce to the deserted courtyard.

I washed and slept by myself.

.........

Early the next morning.

"Boss, no, our pepper forest has been destroyed. ”

Liu Sanniang gathered people to pick chili peppers today, and saw that a large area of the chili forest was ruined.

Some of the pepper trees have been trampled into the mud, and it looks like someone has deliberately vandalized them. She asked people to pick up the intact chili peppers on the ground to minimize the loss, and only after she saw that the situation was stable did she come back to inform Su Qing.

Su Qing, who was still dreaming in bed, was suddenly awakened by the news.

After three times and five divided by two, he put on his clothes, tied his hair in a low ponytail, touched his face roughly, and followed Liu Sanniang.

Su Qing ran to the warm mountain non-stop, and saw that his pepper forest had been ruined, and he almost wanted to cry without tears, and then he was angry.

This is all her money-making treasure, the destroyed forest, not to mention the production of hundreds of catties of peppers.

She squinted at the pepper grove, she was really angry this time. Whoever dares to cut off her wealth, she will let the other party go bankrupt, and there will be no pants left.

After Su Qing returned to the village with people, he asked Liu Sanniang to invite the village chief.

As soon as the village chief heard that the chili forest was destroyed, he knew the seriousness of the matter, and followed Liu Sanniang all the way to Su's house.

The forest is gone, and the big guy's financial road is gone, who did this lack of morality. He almost wanted to drag this man out and beat him, this is really *special* not a human thing.

Su Qing stood in the courtyard, with her back to everyone and didn't speak, until the village chief came, she set up a chair in the courtyard for him to sit down and rest.

"I also asked the village chief and grandfather to call everyone in the village. ”

Su Qing still had that gentle tone, so that people couldn't see her joy and anger, but it was like a moment of calm before the storm.

The village chief was also very cooperative, sending someone to call the villagers who were working in the fields, and gathered everyone in the village to the courtyard of the Su family, and the old woman who quarreled with Su Qing yesterday was also among them.

At this time, the courtyard gate of the Su family was wide open, and the courtyard was crowded with people, and those who couldn't stand stood stood outside the courtyard, row by row.

The door of the Su family hall was also open, and the immortal figure enshrined in the house was facing the people in the courtyard.

Su Qing glanced around at everyone, his eyes calm and waveless. Her eyes made them feel depressed, and even a little breathless.

They didn't have time to think about why Su Qing had such an eyes, such an oppressive momentum, she was obviously just a ten-year-old doll.

Su Qing took a deep breath and said, "The pepper forest in Nuanshan has been destroyed, I think everyone should be aware of the importance of this forest to our village. ”

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused quite a stir among the crowd. That's the village's financial road, who is so lacking in morality, to cut off everyone's way to make money.

"If you want me to say, you just deserve it, yesterday you looked down on people because you had a few stinky money, look, your retribution is coming today. ”

The old woman gloated, not to mention how smug the expression on her face was.

Su Qing glanced at her with a smile, and somehow the old woman was a little empty in her heart.

"The gods offered in the house, I think everyone has also seen it. Regarding the matter of the pepper forest, the old man knows very well in his heart, and now I will give everyone a chance to take the initiative to admit their mistakes, otherwise they will be found out, and their face will be gone. ”

After Su Qing finished speaking, he waited for a while, but still no one stood up.

She told everyone to retreat outside the courtyard, and sent Fuzi and Luzi to keep an eye on the people, so that no one would sneak away.

She went into the house and bowed down in front of the gods in front of everyone. Su Qing is an atheist, and she only does it for outsiders to see.

Su Qing took out a box after a while, and there was a hole in the top of the box, just enough for people to put their hands in.

"This box is placed on the altar every day, and it has been spelled by the gods, and those who lie will feel uncomfortable once they put their hands in it. ”

So saying, she asked a villager to demonstrate, and the villager told a little lie in front of everyone, and he just put his hand in it and retracted it.

His face was pale, and beads of sweat were already forming on his forehead, and it was obvious that he couldn't stand the pain anymore.

When everyone saw this scene, they all began to believe in Su Qing's words, and they all believed that this was a fairy manifestation.

Seeing that the villagers believed her words, Su Qing couldn't help but feel more and more like a god.

But she would never have imagined that she would really have the name of Fairy Su in the rivers and lakes in the future, of course, that is all for later.

As for why the villager was in pain. In fact, only Su Qing knew the reason. When she was in the house, she saw a few date pits on the table, so she took them.

When the villager put his hand into the box, she took advantage of everyone's inattention, bombed the jujube core, and used the jujube core to point at his sore point, but the sore point only lasted for a quarter of an hour.

The ability to play the jujube core was still taught to her by Baili Yu the night she accompanied Bai Li Yu. Although she doesn't play as well as Baili Yu, it's still no problem to point to the acupoints of her body.

Next, Su Qing stood at the gate of the courtyard, holding the box, and asked everyone to reach into the box, touch the bottom of the box, and walk into the courtyard after touching it, and not allowed to come out.

In fact, the box contains incense ashes, as long as the person touches the bottom, there will be ash on his hands, if anyone does not have ash on their hands, who is the murderer of the destruction of the forest.

Su Qing is taking advantage of people's weak hearts, if that person doesn't want to be punished, he won't obediently touch the bottom of the box, then there is naturally no incense ash on his hands.

When everyone finished touching it, Su Qing began to check their hands one by one, and found that there was only one person who did not have incense ash on his hands, and that was the old woman who had quarreled with Su Qing.

The old woman found out that she had been blown up again, so she began to sit on the ground and scream at the throat, she slapped her elephant's leg desperately, and the fat of her body writhed and trembled with her movements.

The old woman thought that she would be fine if she didn't touch the bottom of the box, but just when she was complacent, she didn't think that Su Qing's little slut still had a hand.

"Oh, hey, why don't you open your eyes, fairy, you want to help that little slut to harm me, fairy, you are really blind, you have seen the wrong person, this Su Qing is not a good thing at all. ”

"Tell me how you can compensate me. ”

As soon as the mother-in-law heard this, she immediately shouted louder and covered Su Qing's voice.

The village chief stood up and knocked the ground with his cane, and scolded her loudly: "Enough, aren't you ashamed enough? You have cut off all the financial roads in the village, and you are simply a person from my western village." ”

When everyone saw that this woman had ruined their wealth, and she was cursing the gods without repentance, they were immediately angry.

"Village chief, this kind of selfish person doesn't deserve to be in the West Village at all, everyone is right. ”

A middle-aged uncle said loudly.

If it weren't for Su Yatou hiring someone to pick chili peppers and making their family earn some money, otherwise his wife wouldn't even have money for medical treatment.

This stinky woman ruined the pepper forest, and if she cut off their family's income, it would simply force them to a dead end, and her mind was too vicious.

"Yes, drive this abominable mother-in-law out, and never let her set foot in the western countryside again. ”

The voices of the people became higher and higher, and the village chief also complied with everyone's wishes, announcing that the old woman was no longer from the western village.

"Cut, you think the West Village is amazing, it's not a broken village, you're not poor jingle yet. Let's go, I'm not unusual. ”

The mother-in-law stood up, patted the soil on her body, and scolded and was about to leave.

But where would Su Qing let her go so easily, "Stop, if my forest is broken, I want to leave, but there is no door." ”

As soon as the mother-in-law heard that Su Qing wanted her to lose money, she immediately quit and began to make trouble again.

"Yo he, you're still messing with me, it's really good. ”

Su Qing saw her mother-in-law like this, she didn't bother to reason with her, and directly talked to her. She wanted to see whose means were tough.

"Fuzi Luzi set her up for me, and Kang He went to the kitchen to bring my kitchen knife. Today, if she doesn't lose money, I will cut off her hand, even if it makes trouble with the government, she is at a loss. ”

"You... What are you going to do, I tell you, I... My son is Xiucai, and when he reaches high school, I must set foot in this broken village, and I must kill you. ”

The old woman was struggling and threatening Su Qing at the same time, but in her words, she was obviously lacking in confidence.

"Okay, I'll wait for that day. ”

Su Qing held the knife and was about to slash at her hand. Everyone also thought that Su Qing was really here this time, and they all exclaimed, and some covered their eyes with their sleeves and didn't dare to look.

"I pay... Repay... Other... Cut, I'll pay..."

The mother-in-law shouted loudly, and suddenly there was a smell of urine in the air, and she was so frightened that she peed her pants in public.

Seeing this, everyone subconsciously covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves, and their eyes were full of contempt and disgust when they looked at her, saying that she really deserved it.

In the end, Su Qing asked the woman to pay a tael of silver before she gave up the matter. The mother-in-law was reluctant at first, but when she thought that Su Qing might really cut off her hand, she lost the courage to bargain.

After solving this matter, Su Qing finally felt comfortable, and even ate half a bowl more than usual for dinner that day.

For the next period of time, Su Qing continued to live as usual, but she also bought the mountain where the deserted courtyard was located, and prepared to use the deserted courtyard as her secret base.

The small deserted courtyard on the mountain has been repaired, and except for the old furniture, the inhabitants are completely fine.

Fuzi and they were very diligent, and after helping Xiao Cheng repair the deserted courtyard, they built a grass shed next to the courtyard, and made a half-human-high mud wall with loess around it.

A chicken coop was also made in the back, and there were two pheasants in it, and the pheasants were caught by Xiao Cheng.

When Su Qing was bored, she practiced boxing at home, counting the silver coins, and every time she saw the silver, her face was about to laugh.

Since Zuixianlou began to sell Malatang, the person in charge has been buying chili peppers from her two ends in three days, each time it is more than 200 catties, and she has made a lot of money from chili peppers during this time.

Every time Aunt Jinhua saw her money fan, she said that she was a poor ghost in her last life, and the genius made her a miser in her life.

Su Qingke was not happy when Aunt Jinhua said this, and she hugged her aunt's arm and coquettishly asked her to change her words.

Although the expedition did not make any major discoveries during this time, a large part of the map of the warm mountains had already been drawn.

But what made Su Qing feel strange was that the old widower had no sign of wanting to take revenge on them recently, and this person seemed to have disappeared suddenly.

Besides, Tian Er's side, he came to dig the root of the Su family's wall according to the original plan, but unfortunately, he was discovered by Ning Qi, who was guarding in the shadows.

Ning Qi carried the person all the way and threw it directly into the mansion, and handed over his tools to the official.

Ning Qi originally just wanted to clean him up, but he couldn't stand the punishment, so he revealed a shocking secret to Ning Qi, that is, the identity of Su Qing's mother, Aunt Tian, had a lot of origins.

After Ning Qi knew about this, he rushed to the capital with Tian Er overnight, and at the same time sent a letter to Bai Liyu to explain the situation here.

And Su Qing didn't realize that her life experience had been investigated, and she was still immersed in her beautiful pastoral life.
