I was the richest man in Da Song

Chapter 8
Dou En's appearance was just a small episode in the fragrant butcher shop. The two villains pushed and squeezed everyone in while shouting and cursing.

“I heard the meat here is good”

"Come to Liangjin and taste it with my father"

The two walked into the store swaggeringly, and some diners who were eating saw them finish their meal in a hurry, ran to the counter to pay their bills, and left quickly.

"He Langjun, Diao Kui and Diao Shun are two rascals in Xicheng Xiangfang, please be careful with your hospitality." A diner quietly approached He Shao and whispered.

"thanks for reminding"

Since opening a shop will meet all kinds of people, for such people, He Shao just wants to get rid of them quickly, and hastily delivered the dishes with a smile on his face.

The two drank heavily and ate meat without any conversation in the middle, but they did not leave after eating and drinking enough, but looked around everywhere, obviously with ulterior motives.

Now is the time when there are the most people in the store. In order to fear that something might happen, He Shao handed He Si to the counter early, but even so, he was still a little uncertain.

The two of them looked like burly men. Although He Si had learned some kung fu and was agile, it was still unknown whether he could handle it.

"Oops..."

Suddenly, a person held his stomach and screamed.

"Second brother, what's wrong with you, second brother?" Diao Kui asked hastily.

"Brother, there is medicine in this dish"

When Diao Kui was furious, he directly turned over the table, spilling the plates and wine all over the floor, causing chaos in the store.

For thousands of years, the Han people have always maintained the habit of watching the excitement. When they heard the news, those who were planning to buy meat not only did not leave but crowded at the door, wanting to see what happened inside.

"Diao Kui, you're here to find fault again!"

One of the onlookers recognized the two brothers and laughed.

"You dare to talk nonsense, be careful that I don't recognize people with knives!"

Diao Kui glared angrily, and the man hurriedly shut up.

"Old guy, are you the shopkeeper?"

Diao Kui looked at He Anwen and asked in a bad tone.

"The little old man is the shopkeeper, what's the matter with your brother, why don't you hurry up and find a doctor?"

"My brother suffered a crime in your store, just see a doctor?"

"Strong man, I have some money here to express my love"

There are often such hooligans in Xiangfang, who will come to play hooligans when they see a good business. Most people give some money with the idea of ​​making money by being friendly.

He Anwen took out a consistent amount of money, which could only be earned in half a month in the past, but now with a daily income of forty or fifty, he can afford one or two amounts of money.

But Diao Kui refused to let him go, and smashed the table next to him to pieces.

"Are you sending Hanako?"

"The strong man, how much do you think we should pay you?" He Shao asked.

"This is a human saying, don't try to send me off without a hundred words, and then I will go to the kitchen to see what medicine you put in my brother's meat.

If you agree, it’s fine, if you dare to say no, I will come every day from now on.”

He Shao sneered, the fox showed his tricks, this person should be sent by Yu Futong.

I heard from Snakehead that the secret recipe that Fan Lou was targeting, Yu Futong would snatch it no matter what means he used, as long as the secret recipe was still in his hands, he would never give up, it seemed that it was true.

"The shop is run on a small budget, and I can't get out a hundred crowns for the time being. Wait, I'll get you some!" He Shao said.

"He's a smart guy, I'm just waiting here, no one can come in until I get the money"

Diao Kui stopped a stool at the door and sat down on it.

He Shao left through the back door, and He Anwen followed behind anxiously.

"I have it in my bedroom, I'll go get it"

"Father, don't worry, I can't give you this money." He Shao hurriedly stopped He Anwen who wanted to withdraw the money.

"You've also seen it, what will happen to our business if we don't give it to him?" He Anwen was a little worried.

"He will come again after three or five days today. I'm not familiar with this kind of vicious dog that bites anyone."

"What to do then"

Although He Anwen is old, he has no opinions. Instead, his son He Fenglang makes decisions most of the time at home.

"Don't worry, Lao Ji has already reported to the official"

Kaifeng City was divided into two districts with the imperial road as the boundary. At the same time, the left and right public offices were set up to maintain daily law and order. The Song Dynasty was quite serious about the execution of the Song Xingtong.

Diao Kui sat at the door, no matter how the people behind him scolded him, blocked the door and refused to enter, and Diao Shun still lay on the ground and refused to get up, until some government servants followed Ji Zai to the fragrant meat shop.

"Diao Kui, it's you again." A yamen servant knocked Diao Kui on the head with the handle of a knife.

"Wu Tou? Are you here?"

Diao Kui hastily apologized, the office servants and these local ruffians have known each other for a long time.

"This is where I patrol the streets. How dare you make trouble here?"

"Where can it be?"

Diao Kui leaned over to the head of the yamen servants and said something in the ear, Wu head frowned slightly.

"No matter what, I'm on duty today, you have to go back with me first, and you don't have to stick twenty more, just pass by."

"Success, listen to you"

Wu Tou kicked Diao Shun who was on the ground

"Stop pretending too, get out of here"

Diao Kui looked at He Shao and He Anwen before leaving and said.

"It's really courageous, but I will come out soon. I can afford twenty sticks, but I don't know if this old guy can do it."

"I'm more familiar with the way to go to the office than to go home, our business is not over"

He Shao refrained from attacking in his heart, and if the tiger didn't show its power, it seemed that he had to think of a way to deal with them.

In the middle of the night, all the shops in Kaifeng City were open except for a few, and the rest had been closed, and the pedestrians on the road became less and less.

The watchmen patrolling the streets knocked on the bamboo clappers in their hands and shouted.

"It's dry, be careful with candles!"

"Close doors and windows to prevent theft and theft"

Kaifeng City is the place with the densest population and the densest buildings in the Song Dynasty, and the distance between the buildings is also very dense. Since the founding of the country, floods have occurred every year. The most serious one was that hundreds of households were hit by disasters, which caused the Tian family to be furious, but they could not be found. So yes.

In order to prevent accidental or deliberate flooding, Kaifeng Mansion will set up patrol shop houses at a distance of [-] steps in each lane, responsible for patrolling police at night to collect official duties, and "walking buckets" are set up at the places where street corners connect to collect water. Prepare for emergencies.

Two men in black night suits sneaked up to the door of the fragrant butcher shop, and no one looked around and threw the torch in their hands at the door of the shop.

Now that the weather is dry, and the doors and windows are made of wood, it is very dangerous to be contaminated with a little spark, not to mention deliberately setting fire, but in just a few breaths, the door of the Xiangbutcher shop ignited a raging fire.

"It's water, it's water!"

He Shao was lying on the bed tossing and turning, when he heard the sound of running water, he got up immediately, woke up He Temple, and He Anwen hurried out.

He Shao, who was choked by the billowing smoke, burst into tears, and several tanks were always kept in the yard to prevent water leakage.

Everyone rushed to fetch water to put out the fire, and there were also panicked firefighting sounds on the street. If the fire was not well controlled, it would spread to other homes, so the neighbors and neighbors also joined the ranks of firefighters.

But the fire was getting hotter and hotter, and half of the shop had collapsed. Ji Zai, He Si, and even He Anwen were limping and carrying buckets and wanted to rush into the flames. He Shao hurriedly stopped him.

"Old Ji, Ah Si, stop taking risks."

He Shao pulled He Anwen, and called Ji Zai, the remaining half was about to collapse, breaking in at this time could easily be buried in the flames.If the house is gone, it can be rebuilt, and if the people are gone, then it is really gone.

"Master, go and comfort your father," Ji Zai said in a low voice.

The old man stood where he was, unexpectedly escaped Sun Mao's exploitation, and now he was completely burned by a fire.

Seeing that half of his life's hard work was ruined in one fell swoop, his body seemed to have been taken out of bones, his feet were soft and he almost fell, but fortunately He Shao helped him.

"It's gone, it's gone"

The business of the fragrant butcher shop has finally improved, and the joy on some faces can't be restrained, but now the mood has fallen from the sky to the abyss.

"Father will get better," He Shao persuaded.

"When I become an official, I will arrest all these bad guys," He Jing also said.

"Well, good, good, my grandson has ambition, and he will get better." He Anwen forced a smile, "You all will get better if you have nothing to do."
