Chapter 986
Chu Yannian nodded, and said solemnly: "That's what it means, Osmanthus fragrans, I think Mr. Meng already knew about the smashing of the grain shop this time. Moreover, it seems that he still acquiesced in such things happening. "

Upon hearing this, Osmanthus fragrans raised her eyebrows, and the action of scraping the tea leaves in her hand stopped abruptly, staring at a certain point on the table with an uncertain expression, as if she was frozen.

After a while, Osmanthus sneered suddenly, and put the teacup in her hand on the table fiercely, "What an upright official, Mengzhi County, it seems that we were all deceived by his hypocritical appearance before."

"Osmanthus fragrans, what do you mean..." Chu Yannian was puzzled, but seeing Osmanthus fragrans' expression, his mood was not much better.

Osmanthus snorted again, "Brother, the looting and smashing of the grain shop today did not affect other shops or people, did it?"

"This, it should be like this." Chu Yannian was also a little uncertain, "Looking at Master Meng's reaction and the state of those officers and soldiers, it seems that he has been prepared, but he doesn't really seem to want to do something."

This news made Osmanthus more firm in her speculation.

"Brother, this matter is now very obvious. If I'm right, the so-called smashing incident is nothing more than a transaction with the unspoken support of Meng Liang. We have found him, and he is willing to send troops Suppression, but only if we agree to his conditions. In this way, he can settle the grain price dispute without offending other grain store owners."

"So," Chu Yannian seemed to think of something after listening to Osmanthus fragrans, and said, "Even if we don't agree to his request, or we don't find him at all, we let things go in the worst direction If it continues to develop, he will send troops to suppress it at that time, and he will gain a reputation of being a good suppressor in the end, and he will be able to stand up to the charge of poor management. At the same time, he will not offend the bosses of other grain stores, is that what you mean? ?”

Osmanthus sneered and nodded, "Brother, you are right. No matter how we handle today's incident, Meng Liang won't get a bad reputation, but if we don't handle it properly, we will definitely suffer in the end."

After finishing speaking, Osmanthus tapped the table with her hand, and said: "If I guessed right, he must have asked you to issue a military order. If we can't stabilize the price of grain well and satisfy the owners of those grain shops , our shop must pay a lot of price, isn't it?"

Chu Yannian blushed, and nodded embarrassingly, "He really said that. But, what I thought at the time was that even if we asked us to pay the money, or to sell the shop, it would be better than being robbed of the shop. Smash it. Osmanthus fragrans, you won't be angry if you take the initiative this time!"

Seeing the apology on Chu Yannian's face, Osmanthus just smiled and shook her head, "Brother, you handled it well. If the loss is inevitable, then if the loss can be minimized, to some extent , we earned it."

Chu Yannian blushed even more after being praised by Osmanthus fragrans.

"Okay, brother, since you are the one who is in contact with Meng Liang today, you will still go to the county government office to find him tomorrow morning, and say that our family will take over the matter. If he wants to ask how to do it, you can It is said that at noon the day after tomorrow, I will set up a banquet in Zuixian Pavilion, and everything will be clear when he comes forward."

Osmanthus fragrans had already thought of a solution in her heart, and Chu Yannian nodded in agreement after hearing it.

With nothing else to do, Osmanthus asked Chu Yannian to go back to the room to rest first, while she sat in a chair, lost in thought.
