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

Chapter 347 Strange

Shi Liu was hungry, so she asked Fu Dong to bring some snacks to fill her stomach first, and also brought some for Hu Zhen and the others.

Just after I finished eating and drank a sip of water, Wu Ping and the others came out.

"So soon, are you ready?" Shi Liu said, and asked Fu Dong to give them the snacks left for them so that they could fill their stomachs, as they might still have a long way to go to get to the place where they could eat.

Wu Ping didn't take the snack, but suddenly knelt down.

As soon as he knelt, Wu Jin and the other six followed suit.

Pomegranate was startled and pursed her lips slightly, "What is this for?"

Wu Ping said with a guilty look on his face: "The girl took us in and helped us sue Liu Baode and avenge our hatred. We also swore to work like slaves and go through fire and water to repay the girl's kindness. But now I'm afraid we have to break our promise."

"Girl, please allow us to repay you in our next life!"

After saying that, Wu Ping kowtowed three times to Shi Liu, then stood up and ran away without waiting for Shi Liu to speak.

Wu Jin and his companions did as they were told, and then ran away without looking back, as if some jackals, tigers or leopards would catch up with them if they were a step slower.

Pomegranate:"?"

Zuo Cheng was stunned. "What do they mean by this? The girl helped them, and now that Liu Baode is finally going to be executed, they turned against her?"

Liang Zheng was also dissatisfied and said, "Thanks to the young lady for running around for them. If it weren't for the young lady, Liu Baode would still be the county magistrate. They might have been caught and killed by Liu Baode a long time ago! Are they just going to destroy the bridge after crossing it? Tsk! Do they really have to be the young lady?"

Without the seven of them to help the girl, will the girl be unable to accomplish anything?

There are a lot of people around the girl!

The guards were very disdainful of Wu Ping and his companions for suddenly turning against each other and leaving without looking back.

Shi Liu raised her eyebrows slightly. What happened in the time it took to visit the grave?

She looked at Fudong.

Fu Dong said out loud what she had heard.

Shi Liu frowned, wondering if they were here to find her. Who were they?

What are Wu Ping and the others afraid of?

So, it's because you're afraid of "them" and afraid that they might bring trouble to her, right?

What secrets does this Wujia Village have?

Is the Secret Record of the Five Zangs true or false? If it is true, what is this?

Shi Liu looked at the direction where Wu Ping and the others were running away from him, and paused, "Let's go, we will go into the city first."

The direction Wu Ping and his friends ran in was different from the direction to the county town. Shi Liu did not chase them and continued to go towards Xiangning County Town.

During the trip, we first went into a small town, found a small noodle restaurant, and each of us had a bowl of noodles to fill our stomachs.

We continued on our journey, and at dusk, when the city gates were locked, we finally entered the city.

If they were half an hour slower, they would have no choice but to find a place to stay outside the city tonight.

Xiangning County was not as prosperous as Luoshui County, but it was not small either. The shops lining the streets were all decorated with red lanterns, and people hurried home after work or something.

Zuo Cheng, who had been here before, led the way, and the group soon arrived at Li Ji Medicinal Restaurant, not far from the county government office.

It was dinner time, and the herbal medicine restaurant was packed with guests. Few of the restaurants and hotels I had seen along the way could compare to this one.

Shi Liu, who had known from the account books that the herbal medicine restaurant in Xiangning County had been doing good business since its opening, could not help but nod secretly when he saw with his own eyes that the restaurant was full of customers.

As guests were coming in and out, they did not go through the main gate. Shi Liu turned around and ordered them to go to Sishui Hutong.

When they were looking for a shop to open a herbal medicine restaurant in Xiangning County, Jiang Bing, who was in charge at the time, bought a house for them to settle down in the future. After all, a house here is not expensive. Then a month ago, Liu Baode's house was confiscated, and Shi Liu also took the opportunity to have someone guard it. As soon as the government released the confiscated properties, she quickly bought a lot.

There is a farm just outside the city.

So if she hadn't been able to get into the city in time just now, she could have turned around and gone to the farm.

In addition, there are two houses and two shops.

Among them, the shop in Sishui Hutong is closer and more convenient than the house she bought before.

Before deciding to come to Xiangning County, Shi Liu brought a letter to the owner of the herbal restaurant, asking him to clean up the house.

When we arrived at the house in Sishui Hutong, we unlocked the door and went in. Everything was arranged properly and it was much more comfortable than staying in an inn.

It’s so late, forget about buying groceries and cooking. None of the security guards know how to cook.

Shi Liu directly asked Zuo Cheng to take people out to pack up the food. After everyone ate, washed up, and went to bed.

Liu Baode's execution date was the day after tomorrow, so the next morning, Shi Liu went to the herbal medicine restaurant first, and then found a middleman to help rent out the two houses and a shop he owned.

As for the remaining shop, Shi Liu kept it to open a children's play shop.

Yes, the reason she came to Xiangning County this time, in addition to inspecting the newly acquired farm, was to open a children's play shop in Xiangning County.

Unlike Zhangnan County and Hepinghe County, which are close to the provincial capital and Luoshui City, it is convenient for merchants to pick up goods from Tongwanzhai in Luoshui County and then return to their own counties. However, Xiangning County is farther away and there is no shortage of markets.

Nowadays, even apprentices have joined the woodworking workshop, and the delivery efficiency is not bad. If the supply is sufficient, it is also possible to open a children's toy store.

The shop has a good location and a large store area. After Shi Liu took a look at it, he immediately kept Li Rongyang, whom he brought from home, here. He also assigned him Wang Ming, who was transferred from Dazaozhuang, and two boys, and asked him to be responsible for decorating the place as soon as possible for opening.

Li Rongyang had worked in Tongwanzhai in Luoshui City for two years. He had a good idea about the operation of Tongwanzhai and he could also read and use an abacus, so there was no problem with it.

But he was a little young, so Shi Liu transferred Wang Ming to assist him. Wang Ming was middle-aged, could read and write, and was a steady person, so he was the perfect person for the job.

In addition to the shopkeeper and the clerks, Shi Liu also brought a few carpenters who were responsible for making large slides.

Those responsible for buying groceries and cooking are naturally Li Rongyang's wife and the wives of several carpenters.

Naturally, I live in a house in Sishui Hutong.

Food and accommodation must be properly arranged.

After arranging all these, Pomegranate waited until tomorrow when there was nothing left before heading to the farm outside the city.

Early the next morning, the whole Xiangning County was in an uproar. People from the villages outside the city rushed to the city before dawn just to see Liu Baode being torn into pieces by five horses.

Shi Liu felt that the scene would be bloody, but he had never seen such an ancient execution before. So after breakfast, he took people to the execution site.

Generally, beheadings in the county were done at Caishikou, but wasn't Liu Baode to be torn apart by five horses? Caishikou really couldn't do it, and they were afraid it would be too bloody, and then Caishikou was ruined.

Look, the execution site today is set at the cattle and horse market in the west of the city.

In the past, due to the strong smell, no one came to the cattle and horse market except for those who wanted to buy livestock. But today, it was packed with people.

At a glance, they are all filled with human heads.

This is not the end yet. When a group of people who had been waiting outside the county government office to follow the prison van and throw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves in squeezed in, it was even more crowded. It is no exaggeration to say that all the people of Xiangning County are here today.

Shi Liu was protected by Hu Zhen and others and found a position that was not too far to the front but not too far to the back. He watched the executioner throw the token in his hand. Not far away, five horses were ready.

Seeing that scene, the people of Xiangning clenched their fists in excitement, and they wanted to see it with their own eyes without blinking.

Pomegranate meowed and quickly lowered its head.

Oh my god, it was so bloody, and the scream almost killed her.
