Chapter 48: Midnight Fierce Light
Lin Fanghe suddenly stood up, with a smile on his face, and said to the red-faced: "Boss Dai, can you please tell us about it, what is haunted, what is going on? I don't believe in ghosts and gods very much......
"Who are you, are we acquainted?" Boss Dai pulled his face, and the shelf was very high: "I don't seem to have known you before." โ
Dr. Tea took care of it: "This is a passing guest. โ
"My surname is Lin, I am a merchant, and I have opened a new 'Maoyuan' store in the capital. Lin Fanghe slightly arched his hand and said: "Our inn has its own horse team, camel team, mainly engaged in fur, porcelain and salt and other bulk business, in various places have built sub-stations, mainly from Zhangjiakou Dajing Gate exit, through Kulun north to the Rakshasa town Kyakhta, and then along the shore of Lake Baikal to sell to Western European countries. โ
"It turned out to be Boss Lin. Boss Dai returned the salute, and barely squeezed out a smile on his face: "It's been a long time." โ
"I just heard this tea doctor's eldest brother say that the mountain goods here sell well, so I moved an idea, I want to set up a purchase point in Zhuzhen from the warehouse, and ...... unified purchase and sales."
"Oh, that's right. Boss Dai's crimson face suddenly wrinkled into a chrysanthemum.
Lin Fanghe observed his words and continued to flicker: "Of course, because I have too many things to do and I lack skills, it is impossible for me to take care of this acquisition point in person." Therefore, it is best to find a person who is familiar with the local situation and is proficient in the trading of mountain goods to manage it on his behalf. As for the profits, fifty-fifty will be divided into ......."
"Boss Lin is worthy of being a giant businessman, talking and laughing freely, and making bold moves. Boss Dai smiled, "It's really everyone's demeanor!"
"Why did I just hear you say that there are some bizarre things in the mountains, and it is difficult to purchase, is it that the supply of goods is not smooth now?"
"This ......"
"But it doesn't matter, even if there is a slight problem in front of me, I will have to open this acquisition point sooner or later. โ
Now Boss Dai put his heart in his stomach. He leaned over, lowered his voice, and said suspiciously: "Now Zhang Shan can't go, there are indeed powerful ghosts there recently!"
"What the hell?"
"Not really. Boss Dai was frightened and said: "I have to go into the mountains several times a year, bringing white flowers and silver, and bringing back large bags of goods. It can't be said that there is almost no reason to return empty-handed, but this year-"
"How's it going this year?" Tang Yu asked on the side.
"This year, there is a strange thing in the mountains. โ
Boss Dai shrugged his shoulders and said, "At this time in previous years, it was the best time for the mountain people to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms and dig medicine, and the hunters set up nets and set up iron clips and arrows to capture wild beasts. However, when I went there a few days ago, I found that the whole village was deserted, almost every house was closed, and everyone was in danger, and they did not dare to go out in broad daylight......
Tang Yu didn't believe it, and frowned: "This is too mysterious, right?"
"It's not mysteriousโit's strange to say, since this spring, the people of this village, as soon as they went up the mountain, were confused, and fainted to the ground for no reason. Then a few more young hunters were lost for unknown reasons, and no one was alive or dead. People talk about the tiger for a while! You haven't seen it with your own eyes, so you shouldn't take it seriously. If you are allowed to go in and walk around, and see the battle, the guards will be scared and pee?"
"Oh, Boss Dai, don't stop. You continue. Lin Fanghe interjected, "So, have you seen the ghost with your own eyes?" โ
"I didn't believe it at first, where did the sun and the moon come from?
"And later. โ
Later, in order to persuade the villagers to go up the mountain to collect medicine and hunt, Uncle Dai set an example. The young man dressed as a guy next to him raised his head slightly and said respectfully: "Specially took me to the back mountain forest for a turn......
"The result?"
"Mouthy. Boss Dai puffed out his mouth, raised his eyes and glared at the young man, he hurriedly shut up and retracted his seat. After a while, Boss Dai looked at Lin Fanghe, looked at the guy again, and slapped the table: "Boss Lin asked you what the result was, but you said?"
"Didn't you stop me from talking more? โ
"You stupid plaything, you're so stupid. When you don't let you speak, you open your mouth, which makes you say it, and it's a saw-billed gourd!"
"I ......"
"Boss Dai, take your time, don't scare him. Lin Fanghe persuaded.
Boss Dai complained: "This second goods, a lot of food to eat, a lot of wages, not good for me all year round." You say, "How much work have you done today, and are you worthy of the wages I paid you?"
"Haven't we started work today?"
"You kid is so bold that you dare to learn to talk to me. Boss Dai raised his face, "See if I don't beat you flat." โ
Lin Fanghe couldn't stand it, his face sank, and he said loudly: "Boss Dai, there is no distinction between priority and priority, this is not the character of a good businessman!"
"Yes, yes, the fork is far away. Let's go back and talk about Zhang Shan. โ
Boss Dai didn't dare to offend the big customer, nodded his head, and then said: "The two of us walked along the forest, looked around, and found nothing abnormal, so we went down the mountain and turned back to the village." For dinner, the villagers roasted some roe deer meat, and stewed two wild pheasants, the dishes were very rich, and the mountain people have always been hospitable, and the small bowl was filled with wine, and I was unconsciously greedy for two more glasses. When I woke up in the middle of the night, I was so thirsty that I was about to get up and look for water to drink, when suddenly I ...... outside."
Speaking of this, Boss Dai suddenly stopped talking, with a frightened look on his face.
Lin Fanghe took a sip of tea, not in a hurry or impatient: "What's going on outside?"
There was a chirping sound outside the house, one after another, and it was oozing. I was scared into a cold sweat, and even the hairs on my body stood up!" Boss Dai's face was pale, and his expression changed greatly: "This will make me close to the window, and look out through the hole in the window paper, but it is amazing, it turns out that the fire in the yard is shining, and there is a burst of red smoke and green mist, and the smoke has not dissipated, and two huge ghosts are slowly rising in the ground." They were a foot tall, each wearing a white silk robe with a collar, their eyes glowing, their bodies on fire, their capes scattered, and a red tongue more than two feet long dangling from their mouthsโ"
"Could this be a human pretence?"
"No way, how can a person be that tall. Boss Dai twisted his body uneasily: "Besides, that terrible ghost is still spitting fire out of his mouth." โ
"Didn't you go out to see what was going on?"
"I was scared to death. Boss Dai complained bitterly, "It's not enough to be afraid, how can you have the courage." โ
"If something like this happens, why don't the villagers there report to the official?"
Lin Fanghe remained silent. He put down the tea bowl, glanced at the panicked boss Dai and his servant with a sharp gaze, and continued: "The duty of the government is to catch thieves and eliminate corruption, and to investigate traitors, if this matter is handed over to them, maybe they can uncover the truth more quickly and arrest the culprit?"
