Chapter 242: Evil Ways and Nowhere to Escape
Lu Xiang was stunned: "Don't say that carelessly!"
Mrs. Fu said, "The aunt who works with me said so. I saw her buy a pack last time!"
Young people don’t recognize this kind of thing, but older aunts have seen it and avoid it like the plague.
Some people used it in the early years, but it became less common after it was severely cracked down on. Who would have thought that it would pop up again?
Lu Xiang understood and believed it completely.
The other party must have given a large dose.
He clearly didn't even finish a bowl the day before, and even went to Lu Xiang's shop to complain about the food being bad, but the next day he obediently went to the curly-haired woman to report.
This kind of thing is not good for your health.
After thinking about it, Lu Xiang called the police station, not giving her name, but just saying that this had happened.
The police station really took this very seriously and took immediate action, bringing several people to inspect both stores.
Lu Xiang's shop was certainly capable of withstanding the investigation. The police found nothing.
But when he got to the other party's store, he was stopped: "Why are you checking me?"
The police officer said, "Someone reported that you put something addictive in the soup base."
The curly-haired woman had a pretty good mental state and immediately said, "Impossible! Someone is just jealous of our good business!"
Then he glared at Lu Xiang's store.
But Lu Xiang ignored them.
When the police arrived, they were still eating. Upon hearing this, without waiting to verify, they believed it: "No wonder I want to eat it every day!"
"I told you the taste here is far worse than over there, why are you still thinking it's so good?"
"Catch her!"
The curly-haired woman didn't expect to be stabbed by her own diners.
The policeman said, "Let's go in and search, and we'll find out if there's anything there."
The woman refused to give in and even shouted loudly, causing people who were eating at Lu Xiang's restaurant nearby to run out with their bowls in hand to watch the fun.
I plan to tell the people at the factory about this later.
The police didn't bother with this uncooperative person. They rushed in and found a large bag in the corner, weighing about three kilograms.
The diners were not happy with this.
I have to ask the curly-haired woman for an explanation immediately.
The policeman said, "Come with me. The store is sealed and we're waiting for further action!"
How could the curly-haired woman accept this outcome? Business is good now, and she can make one or two hundred yuan a day. If the business is shut down, where will she make money?
She didn't dare to do it with the public, so she rushed to the other side and said, "Are you jealous of me?"
Lu Xiang was so angry at her ridiculous logic that she laughed: "Your own business is dishonest, what does it have to do with others? If you're wasting time arguing with others, you might as well focus on your taste."
Then the shop was shut down. She hadn't even used up 2,000 yuan worth of seasonings when their license was revoked. Furthermore, they were banned from working in the food industry. They were sentenced to three months in prison.
The curly-haired woman was stunned when she heard this. She had been jealous of Lu Xiang's success and wanted to follow suit, but who would have thought that she would be in trouble just as she was making some money?
…
Something happened at the Curly-Haired Woman's shop, so everyone came back to Lu Xiang's shop to eat!
I've been so busy these past few days.
There were even more people on Saturday than usual. More and more people were calling for the store to be open on Sundays, and Lu Xiang was starting to feel overwhelmed.
She came to the store on Saturday and saw a middle-aged man trying the spiciest malatang in the store.
As soon as I saw a layer of red chili peppers floating in the bowl, I felt the spiciness even before I ate it.
The middle-aged man was completely unaware and was eating with big mouthfuls of delicious food.
After finishing eating, he took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then looked at Lu Xiang.
Lu Xiang didn't know why, but she felt that his temperament was very similar to that of the county leaders.
Lu Xiang asked, "Would you like to drink another cup of peanut milk? It'll help with the spiciness!"
This middle-aged man also wants a bottle. He just finished a bowl of hot spicy hot pot and drank a bowl of peanut milk. He was so comfortable that he wanted to close his eyes.
The middle-aged man got straight to the point: "I'm from Caiyun County. People there really love your spicy hot pot. The girls in the office come here every week to eat it!"
When he was in the office before, he heard these people chattering about how delicious it was, which made him itchy.
I couldn't resist and took the bus here early today. The food was indeed as good as the reputation. "I want to invite you to open a shop in Caiyun County!"
Lu Xiang was stunned. This was the first person who invited her to open a store in another place.
Lu Xiang's prediction was correct. He was indeed a small leader. The two counties were roughly the same distance apart and equally poor.
Now that Lian has a spicy hot pot restaurant, people from nearby counties come here on weekends to eat spicy hot pot and watch movies, and occasionally go to the department store to browse. They spend a lot of money on each trip. It can be said that it has boosted Lian's industry.
The small leaders of Caiyun County were also envious.
I just wanted to bring this delicious spicy hot pot to their area.
The two were talking when a county leader unexpectedly came into Lian and said, "I just drove by and heard the secretary say you were in Lian. I didn't believe it at first, but now I see it's true. How come you're here to eat our local spicy hot pot? How is it?"
The tone of the county leader was full of pride.
The leader of Caiyun County said, "That's right. It would be even better if it were opened in our county." Then he said to Lu Xiang, "Please consider what I just said."
When the local leaders heard this, alarm bells went off in their hearts: "You are not being kind. Why are you trying to poach my people? Come on, come on, let's chat in my office. I have good tea there."
In fact, it was just to interrupt their conversation. Lu Xiang was the pillar of the county. If she was really poached away, she would cry so hard that she wouldn't even know how to sing.
The Caiyun County leader laughed heartily, seemingly understanding his thoughts, but said nothing else. He stood up, paid the bill, and left with him.
The county's top leaders have been allowing Lu Xiang to develop on her own. Now that they see someone trying to poach her, they feel a sense of urgency and plan to go back and give her some more preferential treatment. They cannot allow her to go out of town.
