Chapter 394 Ask a Dark Ghost for Protection

The favor is ready, so why not use it? Qin Liuxi briefly talked about the evil deeds of Li Jiang and his group, and also emphasized Li Jiang and the wart on his back.

"These two people are still carrying lives." Qin Liuxi pretended to be frightened and said: "Master Yu is also a parent official, you have to make a decision for us innocent people who are unarmed, otherwise we don't know who will be the next one to die unjustly."

Yu Qiucai's mouth twitched slightly.

Others are really unarmed, but you are the kind of ruthless character who can kill people invisibly with just a move of your mouth.

Li Jiang and the others were shocked. How did he know?

Looking at Yu Qiucai calling the kid master, and the ruthless words that kid had said before, Li Jiang's scalp suddenly went hairy and his back went cold.

Yu Qiucai naturally would not erase Qin Liuxi's favor, and asked the personal soldiers behind him to take the people to the county magistrate's office in the city for strict interrogation.

The personal soldiers took the order and immediately kidnapped the people away.

Wang and Qin Mei Niang were stunned.

This scene seemed like an illusion.

"Is Lord Yu here?" Qin Liuxi saw that he was still in his official uniform, and asked with a smile.

Yu Qiucai immediately smiled and said, "You know, my wife is getting pregnant, and her appetite has not been very good recently. The servants at home happened to see a candied fruit shop opened here, and bought some to try. My wife praised it highly. I heard her talk about it, so I thought of bringing some back to her before returning home."

"Lord, you really love your wife." Qin Liuxi smiled and said to Wang and the others, "Mother, you heard it too. Pack some of each for Lord, and I'll pay for the order."

Wang had already recognized Yu Qiucai, and was shocked that Qin Liuxi had a close relationship with him. After hearing this, she quickly asked Qin Mei Niang to pack the candied fruit.

Yu Qiucai was stunned.

He glanced at Ruyizhai, then at Wang, his eyes bulged: "Mrs. Qin?"

Wang smiled and bowed to him: "Master Yu, I dare not be called Madam."

"No, you and the master..." Yu Qiucai pointed at the two.

Qin Liuxi said: "Let's talk inside the shop."

Yu Qiucai walked into the shop with one foot deep and one foot shallow, his mind a little confused.

As early as when he met Wang who was harassed when entering the city, he had inquired about the Qin family, and could only sigh, but did not feel much regret.

After all, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Serving in front of the saint, even if you can make your face familiar in front of the saint, it is beneficial to promotion, but there are also risks. If you are not careful, you will be hated without too much evidence and reason.

So like Qin Yuanshan, he is not the first person, and he will not be the last. The older the saint is, the more suspicious he is, the more cautious the officials are, and there will be more and more such things.

The most common thing in Beijing is that high buildings are built and then collapsed.

After learning the inside story, he put it out of his mind. After all, although he knew the Qin family, he had no friendship with them. He knew that the Qin family's old house was in Licheng, but he didn't have any thoughts and didn't pay attention to it.

But now, he seemed to know something big.

Wang was running this Ruyi Zhai, and the master called her mother, but all the men over 12 years old in the Qin family were exiled, so who was the master?

Yu Qiucai suddenly had an idea.

He looked at Qin Liuxi, who smiled and asked cunningly: "Did Lord Yu figure it out?"

Yu Qiucai was shocked and said: "Mrs. Qin is your..."

"She is my stepmother." Qin Liuxi said.

"What about you? I remember that the men of the Qin family were exiled."

"I am a girl, so I am naturally not on the exile list."

"Oh." Yu Qiucai took two steps back. Although he had some guesses, he was still shocked when he heard this reply.

The master he respected and admired was a girl.

Wang didn't know what to do.

"I am a Kun Daoist. I have been worshipped in Qingping Temple since I was a child. I never told the adults before because I thought it would be convenient." Qin Liuxi smiled and said, "And they are my relatives in the secular world."

Yu Qiucai took a deep breath and clasped his hands: "It's my fault that I didn't see it."

"I often dress as a man and I am a monk. It's not your fault that you didn't see it. Many people can't see it."

Yu Qiucai smiled awkwardly. It was true. Her face was not at all feminine. In addition, her demeanor was not at all feminine. But she didn't expect that she was a girl.

Qin Mei Niang had already wrapped the candied fruit. Qin Liuxi took it and handed it over, saying, "These candied fruits are made according to the recipe I gave. They are suitable for all ages. I gave them to Madam to make her sweet."

"This won't work. Your family is old and young. It's not easy to do business." Yu Qiucai hurried to unpack his purse.

Wang smiled and said, "It's just a little candied fruit, how much silver can it be worth? It's fine as long as Madam Yu likes it. Besides, we have to thank you for helping us out."

Yu Qiucai said, "This is also the master's hand. I just asked someone to help send it to the government office."

"But with your name card and request for strict investigation, those who are in charge of this matter will not be too high or too low, and they will not dare to come again." Qin Liuxi said.

Although they may not be ordered to come, they still have to say so on the surface.

Seeing this, Yu Qiucai had to take it and said, "You can do business with peace of mind. I will tell the patrols in the city to come to your area more often. I think there will be no blind people who dare to cause trouble here."

Wang was happy. In this way, they can save a lot of trouble, and they can be regarded as being protected by Yu Qiucai.

"Thank you, Master Yu." Wang bowed gratefully, and Qin Mei Niang also bowed with excitement.

Yu Qiucai avoided it and said to Qin Liuxi: "This is your Qin family's shop, but I remember, master, you said there is a shop in Shouxifang?"

"They are two different things." Qin Liuxi explained: "I only work in charge of the shop in Shouxifang."

Yu Qiu finally understood and said nothing more. He bowed his hands to them and left.

The master is actually a girl, he needs to calm down.

After he left, Mrs. Wang immediately said to Qin Liuxi: "You kid, you are too reckless. Why do you need to be like those gangsters? Just report to the official. If it hurts you, what should you do? Hitting the mouse will hurt the jade bottle. , not worth it.”

"Don't worry, a few gangsters can't trouble me. Reporting to the official is useful, and they won't dare to be so presumptuous." Qin Liuxi suddenly gave a high-five and said: "Oh, I forgot to take back the protection money from them. This total How much money has been handed over, I have to get it back."

Mrs. Wang laughed: "It's just a few taels of silver. Don't ask for it. Just think of it as a waste of money to ward off disaster and eliminate bad luck."

Qin Liuxi took a look at the clean and tidy shop, and thinking about today's incident, he said: "Some people have been looking for trouble for a few days since it opened. Apart from this group of people, is there anyone else?"

"That's the only group." Wang said coldly: "They are just looking at us as women businessmen and taking advantage of them."

Qin Meiniang took some candied fruits for Teng Zhao and others to eat, and sighed: "Yes, the shop has just opened, and there are not many varieties of candied fruits at the moment. My sister-in-law and I are doing business in the front, but we are really busy, so we let the female workers in the back Come out to help. There are only women here, and they think we are easy to bully."

This is the case for women in business. You don't have to show your face, and you don't have a backstage. You are the most suitable person to step on you. You might even get a piece of the pie, so everyone comes to take advantage.

"Since Mr. Yu said that more people will be patrolling this area, there is no need to be afraid in the future, but are you sure that you will set up in front? The business of the shop is on track, and it is time to recruit female workers to help or recruit another man, and this Shopkeeper, are you planning not to invite me?" Qin Liuxi asked.

Mrs. Wang said: "I invite outsiders as well as my own people. I want to make your aunt the owner of the shop, and I will pay you as much as you need. I will also recruit two more agile guys. If nothing else, just I need to move the goods and things like that. I'll do it myself."

Qin Meiniang looked at Qin Liuxi carefully and said, "If Xi'er doesn't think it's appropriate, I can be his assistant."

She had to save a salary anyway, and she found that making money by her own ability, without relying on anyone, was particularly empowering.

She had thought about it. When she had more money, she would buy some land and accumulate the family property bit by bit. In the future, mother and daughter would have something to rely on.

Qin Liuxi said with a smile: "What's wrong with this? Auntie, you can do calculations yourself, manage a house, and manage a shop. It shouldn't be a problem. And I don't care about the business of this shop. If you want to It’s up to mother to decide how many people to hire and who to hire, but it’s really necessary to hire a guy who has some skills and can carry the load.”

Qin Meiniang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I will definitely be interested."

She was afraid that Qin Liuxi would have something to say.

Mrs. Wang also smiled, and she had already made up her mind. After what happened today, it was imperative to hire a guy who knew some kung fu.

Although it happened that Qin Liuxi came to the shop and met Yu Qiucai again, if they were not here, they would definitely suffer the loss today.

The shop finally opened up business, and it was a bit of a run for its money, but it couldn't just be abandoned like this.

Wang asked Qin Meiniang to look at the business, while she led Qin Liuxi inside.

Qin Liuxi heard that the female workers in this shop lived in the small room at the back. Firstly, she looked at the shop, and secondly, she had a place to stay.

"It's still not appropriate to watch them guard the shop now. When I recruit a male clerk, I will ask him to guard the shop." Wang said.

Qin Liuxi also said yes, but he already had some calculations in his mind. It was easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows. If Mrs. Wang hired someone from the outside, she would hire a dark ghost to help look after the shop.

Anyway, it’s just a matter of a few candles and a meal.

This is not because Qin Liuxi is nosy. In fact, running a shop is not easy. If the shop is well run and the Qin family can rely on it, she doesn't have to worry too much.

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, and she knows this.

With this shop as the foundation, life will be better and he will be able to live in peace. If the Qin family can establish itself, she will have nothing to do with it.

Qin Liuxi secretly wrote down the matter of asking the dark ghost to be his bodyguard, and did not tell Mrs. Wang to avoid feeling uncomfortable.
