Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 126

Erdangjia suddenly raised his head and saw a man and a woman standing in the middle of the door.

The man was tall and mighty, his eyes were shining brightly, and he was dressed in the official uniform of a general, making him look extremely mighty.

The woman has a slender figure, picturesque eyebrows, and a long green dress, as if she has exhausted the beauty of spring.

At this time, the entire old house of the Qing Gang was surrounded by officers and soldiers. They drew out the long knives at their waists, each exuding a sense of bravery.

"You, why do you arrest people?" The second leader panicked.

"Bandits! Is this reason not enough?" Lord Qianhu hooked his lips, "In the deep mountains on the outskirts of Qinghe County, there has been a group of bandits entrenched all the time. The bandits have occupied a favorable terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is difficult for the soldiers to break into the mountain, and they dare not go down the mountain easily. You are the ones who collaborated with the bandits! You are the ones who sent food to the bandits, that’s why they are so arrogant to this day!”

Er Dangjia's heart skipped a beat, how could this matter be known to outsiders?

How many times has the imperial court suppressed the bandits, but they still haven't found out the secret of their Green Gang collaborators!

"My lord, I am wronged! The grassroots know that it is a serious crime of beheading, so they dare not cooperate with the bandits!" The second master said quickly.

"Wrong! My lord will not wrong good people! Take them away!" Lord Qianhu waved his hand, "Anyone who resists will be executed on the spot!"

Er Dangjia slumped on the chair, not daring to move.

When he was dragged down, he gave Ye Qiongdan a hateful look.

Ye Qiongdan remained expressionless, ignoring his hatred directly.

After the members of the Green Gang and the soldiers brought by Mr. Qianhu left, Ye Qiongdan cupped his fists at Mr. Qianhu: "Thank you, sir, for your help!"

"You're welcome," Master Qianhu shook his head, "However, your request is really strange. Are you trying to do justice for the heavens?"

"No, I was really forced to do nothing." Ye Qiongdan briefly explained his grievances with the Green Gang.

"You little girl's experience is even more exciting than the stories in the storybook." Master Qianhu smiled, "Actually, I sent people to arrest the members of the Green Gang today, not all to fulfill your promise. Your promise is not serious enough to make my lord send troops, so my lord can refuse your request."

"It seems that God is helping me?" Ye Qiongdan laughed
"It's true that God is helping you. The three-year official assessment of the Dalong Dynasty is about to begin. In a short time, the Lord Inspectorate will come to inspect his political achievements. The official position of the Inspectorate is very special, second only to Lord Jiedushi , even faintly higher than the governor of Guazhou, no, I have to think about how to make political achievements?"

"Your Excellency is wise, and you are actually eliminating harm for the people! The people in the entire Qili Town will praise you highly for this!" Ye Qiongdan said hastily.

"You little girl, you are not very old, but you can say a lot of high-sounding things," Lord Qianhu laughed endlessly, "Okay, the matter is over, my lord is going back."

"Then, can you allow me to ask, what will your lord do with the second leader of the Qing Gang? Is he really a gangster?"

"It doesn't matter whether he is a gangster or not," Lord Qianhu's eyes sank, "My lord said he was a gangster, then he is a gangster! A gangster, according to the laws of the Dragon Dynasty , beheaded as a public example, as an example to others!"

Ye Qiongdan nodded, not wanting to intercede for the second head of the Green Gang.

From the moment he paid for murder, they were sworn enemies.

What's more, the Green Gang did a lot of evil, and they had a lot of lives in their hands, but the government didn't dare to control it. If the second leader was executed, it would be a shame to die!

Soon, the adults of the Qianhu Office of Qinghe County arrested the second leader of the Qing Gang, and saved the people from a serious incident, which spread throughout Qinghe County.

At this time, Xiao Jingyuan was following Master and was about to leave the city gate.

After hearing the villagers' comments, he slightly curled his lips.

The sun shone down from a high place, and fell on his face that was as pure as a snow lotus in Tianshan Mountain. That smile was like melting ice and snow, and it was so beautiful that it was a little distorted.

Come to think of it, the woman that the villagers said was Ye Qiongdan, who reported the second gangster of the Qing Gang and went to arrest the criminal with Master Qianhu.

A young country girl, not limited to this small world, has courage and insight, dares to touch the tiger's whiskers of Wu's Chamber of Commerce, who is the representative behind the steward, and dares to cut off the second leader of the Qing Gang so calmly, Such a woman is not a stubborn weed in the countryside, but a flying phoenix.

One day, she will overlook Yiling County, Guazhou, Beidi, and even the entire Great Dragon Dynasty!

He couldn't help but look back at the county town that he was about to leave. He was waiting for the day when he would reunite with her. She must not let him down!

In the afternoon of the next day, in the backyard of the yamen.

The green shade shines on the water, and the bowl lotus is graceful.

The breeze brought the fragrance of lotus, and it fell on the tea fragrance in the main room.

The county magistrate's wife picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and looked at Ye Qiongdan.

"I think this one is the shopkeeper Ye of Jiuwei Restaurant?" The county magistrate's wife smiled slightly.

This lady is very beautiful, even in middle age, she still has charm, she is like a cluster of elegant autumn chrysanthemums, she is polite and brings a sense of intimacy.

"Exactly. Minnv thanked Madam for her love, and specially invited Minnv to the house," Ye Qiongdan nodded politely, "Minnv is really flattered, I am very grateful."

"You are the owner of Quanfulou, so naturally my wife has to invite you," the county magistrate's wife said kindly, "When I saw you, I remembered your wild bracken salad, it tastes really good! "

"Thanks to Madam's love, the girl specially brought some here, please accept it with a smile." Ye Qiongdan handed a food box to the maid beside her.

The county magistrate's wife immediately beamed with smiles: "Shopkeeper Ye is really polite."

"By the way, my Madam invited you here this time because I have an important matter to discuss." The county magistrate's wife looked at Manager Fu who was sitting on the lower left side of the main room, and then at Su who was sitting on the lower right side of the main room. The master and Ye Qiongdan paused, "A few days ago, Manager Fu asked his wife to come to the house, saying that after hearing that the dishes of Quanfulou had been improved, the business was booming. It can’t be regarded as a unique place in Qinghe County.”

"It is also said that soon, Mr. Inspectorate will come to Qinghe County to inspect the political achievements. Every time the Inspectorate arrives at the post station in the county, he will be entertained by the county magistrate's wife. If the dishes presented at the welcome banquet, It may not be the best dish in Qinghe County, I'm afraid that the inspector will be displeased when he finds out." The county magistrate's wife continued.

"So, what's your opinion Madam?" Ye Qiongdan asked.

"It's not that Madam Ben has any good opinions," Madam Magistrate smiled, "Madam Ben just thinks what she said is reasonable, Madam Fu said to me, it's better to let Bazhenlou and Quanfulou come to Qinghe in order to send Mr. Before the post house in the county, there will be a cooking competition, and whichever restaurant wins the cooking competition will have the qualification to host the reception banquet for the envoy."

Ye Qiongdan and Master Su looked at each other in surprise.

Manager Fu, what are you trying to do?
Confused yet?
Doing so is of no benefit to Bazhenlou!

If Bazhenlou wins, it should be taken for granted. After all, for so many years, in the hearts of the common people, Bazhenlou, which is backed by Wu's Chamber of Commerce, should be the number one restaurant chain in Northland.

And if Quanfulou won, it would be tantamount to stepping on Bazhenlou's face in front of the county magistrate's wife.

Ye Qiongdan and Master Su were wondering when they heard Manager Fu say triumphantly, "This is because the Caomin wants to relieve the county magistrate's wife; Do you, Quan Fulou, dare to accept this gauntlet?"

"Gauntlet? I'm afraid it's not that simple?" Seeing his smile, Ye Qiongdan knew that there must be a conspiracy behind this matter.

"Of course, if your Quan Fu Lou wins, then you will hold a reception banquet for the Inspector General this year; if your Quan Fu Lou loses, then your Quan Fu Lou will not open in Qinghe County." The folding fan shook, showing that trademark smirk again.

"The renovation of the Quanfu Building in Qinghe County is about to be completed. You chose to propose a competition at this time, which really makes me doubt your intentions." Ye Qiongdan raised his eyebrows.

"If you Quanfulou have the strength, isn't it the same when our Bazhenlou will challenge you? Why are you afraid?" Manager Fu put away his fan, put it on his lap, then picked up the teacup, leisurely He took a sip calmly.

"Okay! Just compare!" Ye Qiongdan glanced at Master Su, "Master Su, the little girl agrees with the competition, I wonder what Master Su thinks?"

"Then compare!" Master Su said loudly.

He, Mr. Su, has been ups and downs in shopping malls for many years. What big scenes haven't he seen?He is not scared!

He has also tasted the dishes made from the new recipes, and the taste is indeed far superior to Bazhenlou's signature dishes. Today, Bazhenlou wants to take the initiative to provoke, so don't blame him for stepping on Bazhenlou's reputation to rise to the top!
"So, let's discuss the rules of the game?" The county magistrate's wife said softly.

"What's your opinion, Manager Fu?" Master Su knew that he was a bad visitor, so he simply threw the question to him.

"I can't talk about high opinions, but I do have some small thoughts in my heart. I would like to ask you to refer to one or two." Manager Fu put down his teacup and said solemnly, "When evaluating a dish, it depends on the evaluation of ordinary diners, as well as The evaluation of professional chefs. I don’t think it’s better than this. For this competition, we will invite chefs from eleven of the most famous restaurants in Qinghe County and randomly invited eleven A passer-by as a judge, come and vote for our dishes."

"A total of 22 magistrates?" The county magistrate's wife frowned slightly, "I'm afraid it's not right, it's an even number. Why don't my wife vote too?"

"That's great." Several people nodded.

Steward Fu glanced at Ye Qiongdan and Master Su, raised his head slightly, and said with some pride: "I won't bully you either. When that day comes, we will use exactly the same plates for serving dishes, except that the bottom of our plates in Bazhen Tower will be served with Make a mark with black ink, and mark with cinnabar on the bottom of your plate in Quanfulou. The 23 judges will vote for their favorite dish. After the selection is over, turn over the plate to see which one Restaurants get more votes."

"Okay!" Ye Qiongdan nodded, "Is it real-name voting?"

"Of course you have to vote with your real name."

Master Su frowned, suddenly felt something was wrong, and regretted that he answered the challenge so quickly.

He looked at Ye Qiongdan worriedly, but still suppressed what he wanted to say.
