Shopkeeper Sun looked at his confidant Sun Cai, who was almost touching his face, and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Sun Cai smiled wickedly and whispered, "If the shopkeeper is worried about this matter, I can give you a suggestion."
Shopkeeper Sun was so anxious that he was almost exhausted, with blisters on his lips. Seeing his confidant still hesitating, he kicked him on the butt and urged him, "Just tell us what you think, why are you keeping us in suspense!"
"Hey, Master, don't be upset. I'll tell you right away."
Sun Cai leaned over and talked in Shopkeeper Sun's ear for a long time before stopping. Seeing Shopkeeper Sun's eyes getting brighter and brighter, Sun Cai knew that his words had touched his heart and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Being able to be a confidant of Manager Sun, Sun Cai would naturally receive a lot of rewards on a daily basis, but some time ago he accidentally got addicted to gambling.
He won twice at first, but lost more and more as time went on. He originally wanted to win back his capital and then retire, but not only did he not win back his capital, he lost more and more.
As time went by, his gambling addiction became more and more serious, and he finally owed a huge gambling debt.
The man from the gambling house said that if he didn't pay back the money, he would chop off both of his hands.
He was frightened, so when he was helping Shopkeeper Sun pack up things in the warehouse, he secretly replaced some fake ones with others, and took the real ones out to exchange for money to pay off his gambling debts.
This was not a big deal. The most terrible thing was that the news that he was having an affair with a concubine in the courtyard of Manager Sun somehow got out.
Manager Sun has many concubines in his backyard. After a long time, one of them couldn't stand the loneliness. When Sun Cai was doing things for Manager Sun, it was inevitable that he would deliver some things and run errands to several concubines' courtyards. As a result, he started to flirt with one of the concubines.
Although no one would believe this even if he said it to others, given the petty character of Shopkeeper Sun, he would rather kill a hundred people by mistake than let one go, so he will definitely be suspicious of him.
Now the concubine who had an affair with Sun Cai is pregnant, and that child might be his.
Sun Cai originally wanted to wait for the concubine to give birth to a son, and then prepare to seize Manager Sun's money and property.
But no matter how much he planned, he never expected that somehow these secrets of his would be discovered by others and used to threaten him.
All these leverages on him are still in that person's hands. If he fails to complete the task assigned to him by that person, and that person is unhappy and reveals them to him, he will be finished.
And that person was the one arranged by Shen Yu'an and Liang Hui to pass on the message threatening him.
At this time, in the yard behind Xiangrui Grain Shop, Shen Yu'an and Liang Hui sat opposite each other.
Listening to the news from Chu Yi, Shen Yu'an waved his hand and let him go.
Before letting him leave, he did not forget to give Chu Yi the antidote for the past half month.
Chen Yu'an waved the fan in his hand to cool off and said happily: "It's done, it depends on their next move."
Liang Hui leaned back in his chair and said admiringly, "The little girl in Miss Shen's family is really amazing. She was able to pry out so many useful things from Sun Cai, who is beside Manager Sun, and even made him forget that he had ever seen us."
Shen Yuan glanced at him and warned, "Don't set your sights on her."
This time, I was able to get so many questions out of Sun Cai, but it was inseparable from Hua Ling's help.
Shen Yu'an has not forgotten that when Hua Ling used her poisonous insect to "interrogate" Sun Cai, the old fox Liang Hui looked like he had seen a treasure.
Liang Hui smiled and said, "I heard that the Gu tribe has been wiped out due to the pursuit of the previous dynasty."
"It turns out that Miss Shen's ability to hide her beauty in a golden house has resulted in two boys who are good at Gu magic."
Now some members of the Shen family live in the town, and their house is only separated from the grain shop's yard by a door, so they have close contacts.
Liang Hui, the old fox, had somehow extracted information from Hua Ling and Hua Nan.
Shen Yuan avoided his question and asked, "How are the shops in the two nearby towns and the county town prepared?"
Liang Hui replied: "Everything is ready. We have also brought over enough food to last two months."
He was really curious about how Shen Yu'an's so-called friend got so much food, but he also knew that asking would be overstepping his authority.
The two changed the subject and discussed the affairs of other grain shops and how to deal with the next actions of the other three grain shops.
And the other side.
After getting Sun Cai's idea, Shopkeeper Sun thought his method was very feasible. He was so happy that he rewarded him with a few taels of silver and asked him to go to Du's Grain Store and Wang's Grain Store to invite the other two shopkeepers to come for a gathering.
Sun Cai happily took the silver reward and sent two people to call for help. He then went to a gambling house several streets away, played two games, and lost all the silver that was not even warm before he walked out dejectedly.
While Manager Sun had called the managers of the other two families to discuss business, Sun secretly ran to Manager Sun's concubine's courtyard and had a heartfelt and affectionate time with her.
When the aunt saw Sun Cai coming, she looked around and saw no one was around, so she quickly welcomed him in.
After a while, unspeakable noises were heard in the room, and the maids who were guarding far away all heard red ears.
In the flower hall in front of Manager Sun's house, three greasy-looking fat men were sitting in the flower hall discussing something.
Shopkeeper Sun looked at the other two shopkeepers, glanced at them and said, "I invited you two here because I have thought of a way to deal with the Xiangrui Grain Shop. Are you interested in following me?"
"oh?"
The other two shopkeepers became interested, and they hated Xiangrui Grain Store no less than Shopkeeper Sun.
As soon as Xiangrui Grain Shop arrived, it took away all their business in the town. Although they had more than one grain shop, it was absolutely impossible to make them surrender.
Besides, there were many people in the town, and taking all the guests would be a big piece of fat meat. How could they be willing to let go?
Shopkeeper Wang and Shopkeeper Du quickly asked, "Shopkeeper Sun, please tell us what you have come up with. We will do our best to help."
Shopkeeper Sun raised his eyes and said confidently, "The Xiangrui Grain Store is so arrogant and wants to cut off our livelihood. We don't need to show him mercy and just empty his granary."
"Empty it?" Shopkeeper Wang asked in confusion.
Shopkeeper Du also said: "Let's not talk about the fact that we don't know where the granary of Xiangrui Grain Store is. Even if we knew there was so much grain, how could we steal it quietly for him?"
When Shopkeeper Sun heard Manager Du mention stealing, he looked at him with disdain and rudeness.
He wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but thinking that he still had to cooperate with him, he softened his voice and explained, "This is not stealing. We can buy out all his food."
