The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 235: Luring the wolf into the house?

Looking at the warehouse that was burned to rubble, everyone who was in embarrassment due to fighting the fire was dumbfounded. The fire was finally put out, but they were not happy at all.

"What can we do? All the goods inside have been burned down? Oops!" Dad Li stamped his feet, his face wrinkled and deformed with distress. This is all money! It’s the product of so many days of hard work! All gone!
Mrs. Song was also so anxious that she burst into tears. Others didn't know it, but she knew it. The goods here were worth two thousand taels of silver!
It's rare that I'm a little lucky at this moment. Fortunately, the Liu family comes to pick up goods every half a month instead of once a month. Otherwise, there will be more goods piled up here and more money will be burned.

Farmers hate to waste food. As long as they think about how much meat and eggs there are, everyone present will feel sad.

Even though it was not them who lost this money, they couldn't help but feel sad.

If they knew that there were two thousand taels of silver here, they would all jump up and down.

Patriarch Li frowned tightly, "What's going on? Why did everything go well suddenly catch on fire?"

He looked at the four men, Li Jifu, who had dark faces, and said, "This warehouse is right next to it. You guys slept in the house and didn't hear anything? Is there anything wrong? Why did the fire start so quickly?"

He had lived for most of his life, and he had never seen a house on fire, but he had never seen a fire like this. So many of them arrived, and there was a river next to them. Buckets of water kept being brought up without any delay. But it can’t withstand the fire!

"I was calling the next generation to get up, and I heard a faint sizzling sound. I hurriedly ran out and saw that the warehouse was on fire. I didn't care about anything else, so I shouted at the top of my lungs that it was on fire! "

Something's wrong?
Yes, Li Jifu suddenly reacted, "The dog didn't bark, I didn't hear the dog bark! Oh, why didn't the dog bark?"

Hearing what he said, other people also reacted, yes, the dog is tied up. Usually, every stranger comes over and barks again and again. Why doesn't the dog bark when it gets angry?
Several households not far from the Qinghe River also expressed that they did not hear dogs barking tonight.

This is too strange!

"Girl! The dogs are here!" Jiang Bingjiang and others squeezed in from behind carrying several dogs. "All four dogs are dead. It looks like they were poisoned to death!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath of air.

Li Jifu hurriedly said: "Pomegranate asked people to come over and tell them to be more alert tonight. Jifa and I discussed that he would sleep in the first half of the night and I would sleep in the second half of the night. Just before the fire broke out, which was less than two-quarters of an hour, I came out to see After a lap, the dogs were fine at that time, and they were wagging their tails when they saw me!”

Li Yiping and Li Jitong, who were guarding the other end of the workshop, also said that they saw the dog well not long before the fire.

I didn't hear the dog barking at all, so why was he poisoned to death?
This is too strange. If a dog is poisoned by someone, can the dog stop barking when it finds the person?

Unless the other person is an acquaintance and the dog knows him, so he doesn't bark.

Patriarch Li and the village chief started a discussion, looking at everyone's faces again and again, trying to guess who it was.

Shiliu glanced at Li Jifu's four faces and secretly shook his head, it wasn't them.

Who is that?

There are many people who can make dogs stop barking. There are hundreds of people working in the workshop. After all, in the workshop, the dogs know each other, but can they interrogate them one by one? Without evidence, the other party will definitely not admit it.

This is the disadvantage of not monitoring.

Pomegranate sighed faintly, her mind rarely still clear and spinning rapidly.

Does the fire tonight have anything to do with the person who threw rocks at her to harm her?

What's wrong with burning is that the warehouse was burned down. Is this because she doesn't want her to ship the goods smoothly tomorrow?

Does the other party hate to see her doing big business?
Could it be Hu Youye again?

But Hu Youye's business has been suppressed recently, and only his old shop in Luoshui City has not been closed. He is so anxious, how can he still take care of her?
Pomegranate thinks it’s impossible.

At this time, Hu Zhen came in and said, "Girl, we found traces of tung oil on the ground near the warehouse." Pomegranate felt that the fire was strange, so she asked Hu Zhen to take people to check around. Unexpectedly, It's really strange.

Tung oil?

No wonder the fire burned so fast!

If you poison the dog first, then pour tung oil around the warehouse, and then light it on fire, you will definitely not be able to save it when someone comes to put out the fire.

The other party went straight to the warehouse to get the goods.

"And tung oil? This is too vicious!" Patriarch Li had a sullen face. He looked around and couldn't tell who poisoned the dog, but everyone knew that it must be someone from the village.

He couldn't help but look away. There wasn't enough space in the hall. Most of the people were standing outside, lighting torches. He could see that everyone's faces were dirty from fighting the fire.

"Who poisoned the dog and set the fire? If you stand up now, I can still deal with it lightly. If you ask me to find out, don't blame me for dealing with it severely according to the clan rules!" He started beating! The clansmen are coming.

The head of the village immediately followed suit. He was warning every household in the village. If they found out who he was, such a person would not be tolerated in the village.

Just look at the Huang family and you will know what will happen if they are driven out of the village. Eight villages in ten miles know that they have been driven out of the village, but they are unwilling to take them in. There is no other way. I heard that the Huang family has to drag their family and their families further away. The place has been moved, but I still don’t know if I have found a place to settle down.

Who wants to leave the place where they have lived for most of their lives?
But in the crowd, everyone looked at each other, but no one stood up for a long time, and no one looked abnormal.

"Why would we poison the dog and set fire to the warehouse? This is impossible!"

"That's right, this can't be done!"

"Tung oil was used here? The fire burned so quickly, so you need a lot of tung oil, right? I haven't seen anyone in the village buy tung oil recently!"

"Yes! If someone buys tung oil, the neighbors will definitely know about it. Have any of you seen it?"

"No, no one!"

The villagers all testified to each other that no one had seen it. There was no secret in this village that could not be hidden from the neighbors.

Everyone said no, is it possible that the neighbors could also get involved? What are you picturing? It’s impossible even if you think about it!

Because the workshop was on fire, every household in the village was dispatched. Only the children and the elderly were probably absent from each household, but all the workers in the workshop were there. This was strange.

Aren't they from the village?
But who poisoned the dog to death?

Seeing that it was almost dawn and all the efforts had yielded no results, Pomegranate spoke up, thanked everyone for putting out the fire, and asked everyone to go back and rest first. If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow.

Everyone yawned and dispersed.

Pomegranate also returned home. After entering the house, she realized something was wrong. She turned around and asked, "Where is Huangshan?"

There were many people including Hu Zhen and others, but Huangshan was nowhere to be seen.

Pomegranate's face is slightly dark. Is she trying to lure a wolf into the house?

But that's not right. When we came back, several big black dogs were barking at strangers like Hu Zhen and others they were seeing for the first time.

Huangshan is close to dogs. How can dogs stop barking?
