Chapter 54: Picking quarrels and provoking trouble
Quanfu grain store.
Ouyang Xun was checking the accounts in the back room, although he didn't need to do many things in person now, but he had to check the accounts every month.
The shopkeeper of the grain store came in and asked: "Big boss, a guest came outside and asked you to talk about it in person, you see?"
"It's not like to say, it's good for you to make your own decisions about these things, Shopkeeper Liu is also an old man who has been in this business for many years, this thing shouldn't be difficult for you," Ouyang Xun raised his head and looked at him and said.
Shopkeeper Liu nodded and went out with a smile.
After a while, he came in again, and said embarrassedly, "He has to see you, and if you don't go out, this business won't work......
"Alright then, I'll go out and have a look. ”
Ouyang Xun walked out and saw a man with a full face and an obvious scar on his face sitting at the counter, no matter how he looked like a businessman.
"What do you call this benevolent brother? The contemptible man is the big boss of this grain store, and you want 5,000 stone of wheat?"
The scarface gave him a brutal look, "yes, do you have any in the store?"
Ouyang Xun replied with a smiling face: "Yes, please move to this side." ”
The scarface stood up and walked side by side with Ouyang Xun, Ouyang Xun gave Shopkeeper Liu a look, and Shopkeeper Liu immediately understood, after so many years of doing business, you can see at a glance who is what kind of person.
Shopkeeper Liu saw them walking towards the back warehouse, and he slowly retreated outside the door.
As soon as the shopkeeper Liu walked outside the door, he was surrounded by three big men, knocked him unconscious, stuffed a rag in his mouth, and put him in a sack.
Ouyang Xun and the scarface walked all the way to the warehouse at the back, pointed to a warehouse in front of them and said with a smile: "Please look at it casually, the price is negotiable." ”
He frequently turned his head to look at the passage, why hasn't Shopkeeper Liu come yet, is something wrong?
Shopkeeper Liu didn't wait, but waited for a few fierce men.
Ouyang Xun's heart sank, this group of people was really not good.
One of the dark-skinned bearded men in the group spoke: "Big brother, this kid really wants to send someone out to report the news, but he has already been taken down by the younger brother." ”
The scar said with a cheeky smile: "Boss Ouyang, what do you mean by this, doubt the sincerity of my business?"
"No, no, you misunderstood, it's just something for Shopkeeper Liu to do, what do you think of this wheat?"
"Hmph! What are these things, they are all moldy, and they dare to take them out and sell them!" The scarface raised his hand, and the wheat was sprinkled on the ground: "You profiteer, Lao Tzu will eliminate the harm for the people today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the few people began to move, and the shopkeeper was so frightened that he cowered in the corner. Don't dare to go forward.
The raindrops of fists fell on Ouyang Xun's body, and after a beating, he was tied up, and everyone pushed and shoved him outside.
When they arrived on the street outside, the passers-by saw Ouyang Xun being tied up, and his nose and face were swollen, so they stopped to watch, and when they saw the fierce appearance of the people who tied him, they didn't dare to ask more.
The scarface arched his hand: "Ladies and gentlemen, this unscrupulous and treacherous commodity is not a fucking thing, the grain in the warehouse is adulterated with stone fakes, shoddy, and the moldy grain is sold to me as good grain, fortunately I found out, otherwise I don't know how many people will be harmed!"
When everyone heard this, they talked about it, and there were already those who were interested in the business of Quanfu Grain Store, and they took the opportunity to fall into the ground.
"I've long said that they don't do business properly, don't you believe it?
There are also opposing voices: "It's impossible, Ouyang was in charge of the disaster a while ago, and he also paid for the establishment of Ci'an Hall, giving rice porridge to those homeless people, why haven't you heard that there are stones in the grain?
"It's just a matter of selling fame and fame, you still take it seriously! For the sake of being rich and unkind, this is what kind of person you are talking about! Who knows what kind of relationship you have with him, and he sells you the good ones!"
"You are a red-eyed business, okay! Why don't you want to think about how much people helped you when you first opened the store, you really have no conscience!"
An old woman in a plain cloth squeezed in, and when she saw Ouyang Xun being beaten, she immediately cried bitterly and threw herself down beside the group of people: "What are you doing? Why are you beating my son!"
Ouyang Xun heard his mother's voice and struggled to open his eyes, his eyes were swollen like eggs, and he barely opened a slit.
"Mother, why are you here? Go back quickly, I'm fine, you hurry up......
Aunt Ouyang threw down the scar-faced upper body and pulled his clothes: "Where did you come from, a second-rate son, who wronged my son indiscriminately, and the old lady fought with you!"
The scarface pushed her to the ground: "Old immortal thing! Your son has done something bad, and he won't let people say it, get out! If you don't get out, I'll beat you together!"
This push, Aunt Ouyang fell not lightly, and she couldn't get up from sitting on the ground at that time: "You group of my son, who killed a thousand knives and slandered me, still want to kill my wife! The old woman fought with you today!"
After saying that, he tried to struggle to get up, but he stumbled and fell to the ground again.
"Mother, you go back first, I'm fine. You go back first, wait for me at home, and my son will come back in a while," Ouyang Xun was in a hurry, his hands were firmly bound by the two big men, and he couldn't move.
"Your goal is me, don't hurt my mother anymore. Since you say that I am rich and unkind, why don't you take me to report to the official! Don't think I don't know what you have in mind!"
Ouyang Xun turned his head to look at the onlookers, and said to everyone, "Uncles and aunts, they are all from the township, please take my mother away, I beg you!"
There are those who are familiar with him, and they have the courage to help Aunt Ouyang up, and comfort: "I haven't seen any storms in Ouyang's family, it's okay, we have already reported to the official, and the officers and soldiers will come in a while." ”
The scarface saw that he was almost in trouble, waved his hand to his subordinates, and shouted, "Go, take him away!"
Aunt Ouyang said excitedly: "Where do you want to take my son?
"Old fellow, I see that you are impatient, Lao Tzu took him to the yamen, didn't you report to the official? It just so happens that I will also go to meet our Qingtian master! Hmph!"
The scarface pushed Aunt Ouyang away, and walked in the direction of the mansion with a group of minions, and when he was about to reach the mansion, he suddenly turned around and walked towards a sparsely populated place.
The good deeds had been following them, and when they saw that the situation was not right, they hurriedly ran back: "The group didn't bring him to the yamen, and they don't know where they took them!"
When Aunt Ouyang heard this, she fainted with fright.
Everyone hurriedly carried her to the bed in the store, and hurriedly asked the doctor to come and see.
The shopkeeper walked out of it tremblingly, holding a piece of paper in his trembling hand: "This is what the group of people stuffed into their little hands when they left, is there any literate gentleman, see what is written on it?"
One of them, a man with a goatee, walked out, took the piece of paper and read: "If you want to save Ouyang Xun, you must come to Furong Pavilion in person." ”
"Childe July?"
"This is called where the villain goes to find the seventh son, the villain has never seen the seventh son, and no one knows where he lives," the shopkeeper cried with a sad face.
"Didn't I hear that the seventh prince is also the boss of Fumanlou, why don't you go to Fumanlou and ask?"
"Oh, I think it's better to report to the official first, and talk to the government first. ”
The shopkeeper was already frightened and stood there stunned, not knowing what to do.
Suddenly, there was a groan/groan from the corner, which startled everyone, and someone stepped forward and opened the sack to see that it was the shopkeeper Liu, and everyone quickly helped him out of the sack.
As soon as Shopkeeper Liu heard that Ouyang Xun had been kidnapped, he slapped his thigh in annoyance, he knew that something bad was wrong, and the other party must have planned this matter today.
The man who fell into the well saw that this situation was not right, and quickly tried to slip away, but was stopped by others.
"You just talked to those people, are you in league with them?"
The man was so frightened that he hurriedly waved his hand, who knew that they were a group of bandits, if he knew that it was a word, he would not have said anything.
"I don't know them, conscience of heaven and earth! I just ...... I don't know what happened just now, it was the villain who committed hysteria, so I am talking nonsense, don't take what the villain just said to heart, I beg you!"
The person who was holding Aunt Ouyang just now grabbed his sleeve and snorted coldly: "If you don't know how to be grateful, forget it, and beat a rake, others can spare you today, but I can't spare you!"
The person who was punched immediately couldn't find Bei, and the man didn't dare to fight back when he was beaten, he didn't dare to pant when he covered his nose, hunched his waist, and said in a trembling voice: "This time...... Can I leave?"
"!"
"I'll get out, I'll get out," the man nodded hurriedly, hunched over, and left
Shopkeeper Liu sat and rested for a while, and hurriedly walked in the direction of Fumanlou.
