Chapter 85 Hot Sale
"Second Miss! I'm wronged!" Everyone seemed to be on fire, and they all became restless.

The soldiers of Tianshifu rushed forward, their sharp knives were three inches out of their sheaths, and a cold light suddenly appeared.

Just this slight move forced the servants and cooks back more than a dozen steps, and they trembled and dared not act rashly again.

"Take them all away!" The corners of Mr. Wang's mouth almost rose to the base of his ears, he was already holding the kit in his hand, his eyes shone as if he saw mountains of gold and silver.

It didn't matter who he took away, as long as he took some people away from the Song Family Restaurant and added this poppy as physical evidence.Regardless of whether the Song Family Restaurant produced mouse feces or was ordered by the superiors, its reputation would be ruined.

"Wait a minute." Xiao Ning just stepped up the steps, but suddenly stopped again.

She turned her eyes to look at Mr. Wang, and said suspiciously: "The duty of Tianshifu is to supervise, but it does not have the power to seize stolen goods. This kind of thing should be done by the government office. Mr. Wang is overstepping his authority, right?"

Mr. Wang suddenly trembled a few times as if he was struck by lightning.

The ministries of the imperial court performed their own duties, and the departments could only cooperate or assist. It was never said who could do what for whom.

Once something happens, the black hat of the person who has exceeded his authority will not be guaranteed, and he will have to throw it in the prison of the government office to check whether it is deliberate.If so, the crime will be increased.

"If Mr. Wang wants to arrest someone, please report to the officials first." Xiao Ning turned around and walked back, sat down calmly and began to drink tea.

The rules set by the court, even the emperor cannot be easily shaken.

"Okay! Report to the officials!" Mr. Wang gritted his teeth and held the kit even tighter. "Anyway, it's just a delay, the murderer who should be caught will never escape!"

Xiao Ning smiled lightly, and sneaked a glance at the second floor from the corner of his eye.

Old Song nodded to her, his face was flushed red, and he raised his big finger.

Knowing that her strategy was successful, Xiao Ning was slightly relieved.

Not long after, officers and soldiers from the government office came, and this time the person who came to do peace affairs was a very young official in his early thirties.

He had heard about this place when he came here, adhering to the principle of mutual protection between officials and officials, he didn't ask any questions, and just wanted to arrest people.

"Wait a minute." Xiao Ning said leisurely.

Mr. Wang was getting impatient, and said in a rough voice: "Second Miss Xiao! You are a woman with short-sightedness, and I don't care about you. However, you have repeatedly intervened in the affairs of the official family. Do you think that we Is this official uniform for nothing?"

In a word, we successfully recruited the young government officials into a group.

"Second Miss, the government office pays attention to evidence, and will never wrong any of your servants. The trial will be held tonight, and the innocent people will be returned tomorrow." The official whispered coldly, looking at Xiao Ning with With a trace of disdain, Xiao Ning slowly got up, turning a blind eye to their piercing gazes.

"It's fine to arrest people, but the two adults should give a name." She glanced at the bag in Lord Wang's hand, "If you can arrest and interrogate someone just by reporting a good citizen, then you report it too. I also reported it, isn't this rule messed up?"

Lord Wang was speechless, and the officials sent by the government also bowed their heads and remained silent.

The rule of the government government to arrest people is to catch thieves and take stolen goods, or if there are witnesses, it is always necessary to learn from a famous teacher.If more than a dozen people from the Song family restaurant were taken away with just one sentence, if no reason could be found out, the government would lose all face, and it might cause trouble to the emperor.

"What's in this kit, in fact, the big guys don't know yet." Seeing that the two of them were silent, Xiao Ning's eyes flashed.

The guests present were also surprised, and suddenly realized something.

All the doubts started when the mansion soldier shouted that he had found it. In fact, no one knew what was in the kit.

"It doesn't matter whoever reported the Song Family Restaurant, we will admit our guilt, but we won't take the blame for the unwarranted blame!" Xiao Ning walked up to the two adults with piercing eyes, and glanced at them left and right.

The eyebrows and eyes are like knives, which is chilling.

Mr. Wang shivered unconsciously, and the young official swallowed his saliva. He looked at Mr. Wang, and then at the kit in his hand.

If you want to arrest people, the things inside must be prohibited.

Mr. Wang understood the look in his eyes, and quickly tore the bag away.

What was revealed inside made everyone laugh out loud.

A little white sandy thing slowly fell, like ground frost and snow.

This thing is a necessary thing in the kitchen, the salt in the firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea.

"It turns out that this kit contains fine salt." Xiao Ning pretended to be surprised, and suddenly raised his eyes and said coldly, "Master, is it illegal to hide salt?"

Snow-white salt was reflected in Mr. Wang's shocked black pupils, and his face was even paler than this salt.

The young official of the government office couldn't believe it. He stepped forward and lightly twisted a little bit into his mouth. After tasting it, he frowned slightly: "This is indeed salt."

Those five short words made Mr. Wang tremble even more.

"It seems that this matter was a misunderstanding." The young official coughed a few times, and looked at Mr. Wang in embarrassment and sullenness, "Since it was a misunderstanding, I will leave now."

He led a group of yamen servants to disperse like a tide, and he didn't want to clean up this mess.

Xiao Ning didn't want to embarrass him too much, but she was just an official who wanted to have both ways, and the person she really had to deal with was right in front of her eyes.

"Thanks to everyone's love, I often patronize Song's Restaurant. I believe all old customers know that a glass of water and a cup of tea in the building are clean, and there has never been any trouble. This is not because of my good management, but because of the building The cooks and servants in the house, if they hadn't worked hard, how could they not have made any mistakes for many years."

The guests in the building nodded one after another, and their faces became firmer.

Xiao Ning turned around and looked at the boys who were almost caught: "You are all capable assistants in the building, without your hard work and care, there would be no Song Family Restaurant today."

Those little servants and cooks looked at each other, originally the shopkeeper disregarded their life and death, and wanted the Yacha to take them away, half of his heart was cold.But hearing this, everyone's heart was shaken again.

They can get three to five times more money in Song's restaurant than elsewhere, and they don't have to be treated like dogs.If it weren't for the shopkeeper and shopkeeper song being considerate, they would have left countless scars on their bodies.

"The shopkeeper's words are serious, we are the ones taking care of you. If it weren't for your good leadership, we would not be able to live a comfortable life."

"There have been so many provocative people in the building over the years, and they have never taken advantage of it. Anyway, those who clean up clean up themselves, even if we are caught, we will not be wronged!"

"We don't cause trouble and we are not afraid of trouble! If you are really suspected, you can go to the government office at worst!" The servant and others stood up one after another, filled with righteous indignation.

They all looked at Mr. Wang, with fire in their eyes, as if they wanted to rush up and beat him up.

Sensing those resentful eyes, Mr. Wang couldn't help taking a step back, and hid behind his guards with knives. "Since there is salt in this kit, should Mr. Wang still check whether this is private salt?" Xiao Ning Pointing to the ledger on the counter.

The restaurant business is different from other businesses, salt is the most important thing.

If someone dares to buy private salt, not to mention tax evasion, the taste of the dishes will also decline.In order to check the tax revenue, the Ministry of Household collected all the salt merchants for its own use.Anyone who opened a restaurant had to purchase from official salt merchants, and the weight and price had to be signed by two people before submission.

Xiao Ning had already brought out the account book of the Song Family Restaurant when Mr. Wang came.

Putting it so brightly on the bright side, it seems to be frank and magnanimous.
