Rebirth Farmer Yaomei

Chapter 149 Bu Jiu
According to rumors, Bu Jiu once publicly said that even if Qian County Magistrate's family opened a shop in Hutai County, they would have to pay a security fee!Although Ning Wan hadn't heard it with her own ears, she believed it somewhat.Because although County Magistrate Qian did not open a shop in Hutai County, he still failed to do anything to Bu Jiu.As for Mrs. Zhao, she once asked why Bu Jiu was allowed to do so.

Mrs. Zhao told her like this at the time, "Even if we come forward to bring down Bu Jiu, won't there be another person? Since ancient times, people don't raise officials and don't investigate. This is the reason. Our shop really doesn't pay the security fee. Although he Don’t dare to do it, but you can’t save trouble, it’s better to spend money to buy a safe, that’s more cost-effective.”

Mrs. Zhao also told Ning Wan that Ju Shutai of the Xu family had refused to pay the safety fee before. Bu Jiu didn’t say anything on the surface, but secretly caused beggars and rascals to make trouble in front of the shop every day. Entering the door, business plummeted.Xu's family filed a complaint at Qian County Magistrate's Yamen, and Qian County Magistrate also detained several people, saying that they went to Ju Shutai's gate to beg for food when they were poor. In the end, they failed to capture Bu Jiu, and finally retired with Xu's family. After taking a step, Ju Shutai paid the safety fee and ended.

Sun Gu asked again: "If we don't hand it in, what will he do? Could it be that he went to the shop to grab things?"

"I don't know how to rob." If Bu Jiu knew how to rob, then he would have been sent to the prison of the county government!Just like the gangsters who fought in Hutai County before.Bu Jiu's methods are much more cunning. Although he can fight, he rarely uses hands. He usually instigates poor beggars to lie in front of the shop door to block the way. No matter whether the people in the shop are beating or scolding, they will never fight back. Anyway, they see blood. No one went to the shop anymore, and even self-harmed directly in front of the shop, "Did you see it just now? Bu Jiu's right hand has never been stretched out. When he was in power, he smeared his right hand with oil in front of the shop door." Lit on the fire and sat motionless in front of the door, attracting people all over the street, and the shop had to pay the money.”

Those with bare feet are not afraid of those who wear shoes. The owner of the shop has a family and a business, which is no match for a bastard. It is much better to send Bu Jiu away now than the shop can't do business, so Ning Wan hurriedly asked someone to deliver the goods to Bu Jiu. Nine sent away, spend money to buy peace.

What Ning Wan told everyone was only on the surface. Bu Jiu doesn't like to be violent on the surface, but he is very dark in his heart. As long as he offends him, most of them will not end well, or they will encounter all kinds of bad things in one way or another. Although he didn't admit it, everyone in Hutai County believed that it was related to him. After all, where are there so many coincidences in the world?
Thinking of a man with burning hands sitting in front of the shop door, everyone stared at him for a while, there was no other way but to admit it.Another person asked: "Just now Bu Jiu said to buy New Year's goods for his wives, does he really have a wife?"

"Not only does he have a wife, but he also has several wives!" After Bu Jiu became rich, he married several wives. He is a man who doesn't follow the rules. The wives are regardless of their size. Qian, so the wives coaxed him all day for Qian's sake, but Ning Wan snorted softly, "But he hasn't had a child yet." People often scold him behind his back for going extinct because of his wickedness, but Because of this, Bu Jiu didn't care even more when he did bad things.

"God has eyes too, the wicked must be rewarded!" Everyone relieved their hatred, but they inevitably muttered, "Those goods are worth more than twenty taels of silver!"

How could Ning Wan not feel sorry for that silver?All the goods in the shop have capital, and she just bought a shop, and the money is tight, but at this moment she can only wave her hand generously, "Forget it, let's do business well!"

Since doing business in Hutai County, it is inevitable to pay the "safety fee", and just now Bu Jiu said that there is no need to pay the security fee this year, Ning Wan calculated in her heart that the loss is not too much.

Fortunately, a few groups of real customers came in right after the shop, picked out the goods and paid for them, and everyone got busy. At this time, the guy who delivered the goods to Bu Jiu also came back, "The goods have been delivered to Bu Jiu's house." Everyone When I have some free time, I can't help but curiously ask Bu Jiu's family what it's like, whether his wives look good or not, and so on.

Ning Wan only wanted to listen to gossip, but when she saw Bu Jiu came back, she quickly coughed to remind everyone, and then asked with a loud smile, "Master Bu Jiu, what are you still missing for the New Year? As long as there is something in the shop, just take it."

Unexpectedly, Bu Jiu hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "I'm just a bastard. I've offended everyone!" He took out a big ingot and put it on the counter, "This is for paying the bill, is it enough?"

Everyone was stunned, just now the lady from the host family said that Bu Jiu could not be offended for a long time, and they didn't want Bu Jiu to come to give money in a blink of an eye, so they all looked at Ning Wan and didn't know what to do.

Ning Wan was also in a daze. After all, she had heard that Bu Jiu never paid for things. In his own words, which shop he went to buy things was worthy of this shop. If you pay the safety fee, it will be free, so it has become the norm, what's wrong with Bu Jiu now?
After all, it is the owner, so she should take this idea. Ning Wan felt that her family had absolutely no capital not to pay Bu Jiu's safety fee, and she couldn't figure out why Bu Jiu would pay the bill, so she could only ask with a smile: "Master Bu Jiu is like this. We were terrified, but what's wrong that offended Master Bu Jiu?"

"No, no, it's all under me." Bu Jiu shook his head vigorously, shaking the fox fur hat on his head, which was very funny, and then bowed deeply, the fox fur hat almost fell off, But he didn't realize it and still smiled and said: "If this money is enough to pay the bill, I will leave." He said and retreated to the door.

Seeing that he was going to leave, Ning Wan hurriedly said, "I don't need so much silver, I will return the rest of the silver to Master Bu Jiu." The ingot that Bu Jiu took out was 50 taels, almost twice as much.

"If it's extra, I'll treat everyone to a glass of water and wine. It's an apology." Bu Jiu had already left the gate at this time, turned around and walked away quickly, as if fleeing.

The second monk Ning Wanzhang was puzzled, and asked the boy who had just delivered the goods, "Just now you delivered to Bu Jiu's house, did you see anything strange?"

"No, I just carried the basket all the way to deliver his things to his home. Someone brought in the new year's goods before I even entered the gate. I didn't even see what Bu Jiu's house looked like, let alone his wives. I don’t dare to look around!” The little guy was telling the truth at this time, and suddenly remembered something and said: “By the way, I just finished delivering the goods, and I met Deputy Lu Qianhu. He asked me where is Bu Jiujia, I showed him the way, and when I saw Deputy Lu Qianhu, I went to Bu Jiujia, and I hurried back to the shop."

That's right, Bu Jiu is most afraid of Lu Tieshi. He once visited Lu Tieshi after he was transferred back to Hutai County, but Lu Tieshi ignored him and turned him away without daring to say no. It sounds good, but it was called "the most in awe of General Tieshi in my life" and he retreated in despair, which made people who hated him secretly spread jokes behind his back.

Needless to say right now, Lu Tieshi must have helped him! "But how did Deputy Lu Qianhu know?"

Then someone thought about it, "Could it be that Luo who came to buy vegetables and pasta every day went back and said it? When Bu Jiu came just now, he happened to come to buy food."

Ning Wan nodded, and owed Lu Tieshi another favor.

Since then, the gangsters in the city have never come to Dejufeng again, and even the street in front of the shop has never had any incidents, it is always peaceful and lively.And De Jufeng's first year in Hutai County was naturally very smooth, but he was a little busy.After all, in Ma Yi Town, all the shops started to close when the new year came, and they didn't open until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.But in Hutai County, most people only rest from the thirties to the fifth day of the new year, and some shops even stay open, and they still do business for two or three hours a day during the Chinese New Year.

Think about the thousands of households in the county, more than 1000 regular troops, two to three thousand gang members, plus the population of the surrounding villages and towns, hundreds of households, and stations coming to the county, it is very common to have business on New Year's Eve.

The Ning family followed the Romans, and closed the shop on the evening of the 29th. They hurried back to Sanjia Village on the morning of the [-]th. They came back on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year and stayed in Mayi Town for one night. Although the shop in the town was closed, the vermicelli workshop There are still people there.Teacher Liu was thousands of miles away from home, so naturally he couldn't go back. Ning Dahe didn't go home in order to accompany the master. The four members of Ning's family came to make dumplings with them.

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, the shop opened and the business continued. While managing the shop, Ning Wan was thinking about the Lantern Festival. The Lantern Festival in Hutai County is many times more lively than that in Mayi Town. It is best to open your own shop on the street. In terms of position, there is no way to do a bad job.

The previous idea that using sorghum and orange poles to make lanterns was not just Ning Wan's idea to save money. Unexpectedly, the effect of saving money is also good, and this year will naturally be the same, but in addition to the small lanterns, it has been added to the pattern. A few things, such as small houses, boats, small tables, small chairs, etc., are all made of sorghum and orange poles by my father, which are very delicate and cute.On that day, many people lined up in front of the shop, and the scene was quite lively.

The Lantern Festival has just passed and it is the social day. On this day, the City God is parading, and the lively scene is not inferior to that of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The Lord City God, wearing a red official robe and a gilded cloak, comes out of the City God Temple on a sedan chair carried by eight people. Take a tour of the streets and alleys of Hutai County, in front of you there are yamen servants beating gongs to clear the way, beside you are the eldest and second wives of the City God, and there are many real people dressed up as civil and military judges, masters of various divisions, generals of cattle and horses, wandering gods of the day and night, and shackles. The general accompanied him, and behind him there were various demons and ghosts in various forms.

Wherever the City God passes by, both merchants and residents burn incense and offer fruit, and ask the Lord City God to bless Hutai County for safety and prosperity for the whole family. Countless people have also followed the patrolling team to go out since the City God passed by, not to mention It is said that there are only a group of idlers who come to watch the excitement, and the streets and roads will be full wherever the team goes.
