Chapter 209 Something happened to the ship transporting salt!
Song Wang stood up, walked to the door and whispered orders.
"Investigate immediately! This matter is serious. We must find that woman."
Behind.
Qiu Man was extremely excited. She leaned on Jiusu's shoulder, her heart overflowing with joy as she whispered, "Sister Jiusu, he talked to me a lot."
Jiusu was touched by her cuteness and smiled.
"Master Song is here."
When Qiu Man heard this, she sat up straight, picked up the teacup, and slowly poured the hot tea into her throat. It was so hot that she wanted to scream. No, hold it in! She wanted to act like a lady from a noble family.
He will like it.
Song Wang clasped his fists and said, "Thank you all for your guidance. This matter is of great importance, so please keep it confidential. I have already paid the money, so please do as you please."
Li Yulan, who had been silent all this time, stood up, walked to the door, and bowed gently to Jiang Jing and the others.
"I'm going with Master Song."
She was wearing a green shirt, and when she turned around, her snow-white skin was faintly visible. She was so beautiful that it was freezing. The handsome man and beautiful woman walked together, attracting praises from the waiters in the teahouse.
Qiu Man pursed her lips.
Jiusu came forward and said, "Manman, why are you still sitting here? They just arrived and don't know the way. What if something happens?"
Next second.
There was a jumping sound behind them, and the two turned around to look at the girl who was chasing them. Li Yulan lowered her head, her expression froze. She was squeezed so hard that she could only move a few steps to the side.
She asked, "Miss Qiu, what are you doing?"
Qiu Man asked back: "I'm looking for Master Song, what does it have to do with you?"
Li Yulan paused, then changed the subject: "Lord Song and I have important matters to attend to, so I may not be able to accompany you. I hope Miss Qiu won't block our way. Lord Song, shall we go?"
"Yeah." Song Wang responded indifferently.
Qiu Man's voice came slowly, "I'm familiar with the roads here. The housekeeper of the Qiu Mansion knows me. If I take the wrong road, I have to inform him. It takes a lot of time."
Hearing this.
Song Wang paused, turned around and said, "Thank you, Miss Qiu."
——
The factory started production, but problems arose with the fine salt at this time. Jiusu hurried over. Many people gathered by the lake. Chen Nianhai swam out of the lake and squatted on the ground.
Ah Yun said, "The boss is here."
Chen Nianhai knelt on the ground, a grown man with his head lowered, saying guiltily, "I'm sorry, I don't know how the boat capsized. We always check before setting off, and there's no way it could have been exposed."
Everyone in Chenjia Village gathered around.
Village Chief Chen shook his head and said regretfully, "How much salt must have been ruined."
"Brother Chen, you get up first." Jiusu looked at the boatman who was soaking wet and said, "There are many people here, all watching."
Village Chief Chen immediately understood and waved.
"Stop looking and get back to work. Go back and change your clothes before coming back."
Four ships were towed up, with several holes of varying sizes punctured on the bottom.
Chen Nianhai casually changed his clothes and rushed over with two friends. Seeing the damage to the bottom of the boat, he was shocked and said, "What's going on?"
Ah Yun stamped his feet, his chest heaving up and down in anger.
Her shoulders trembled with anger as she cried, "It's obvious this was man-made. Even if there were fish monsters in the lake, how could they bite a hole like this? It's so infuriating!"
Yu Da got the news and came by boat.
Jiusu blinked and said, "Boss Yu, it was just a small accident. I will be responsible for the loss. We can continue to transport salt the day after tomorrow."
Yu Da was stunned for a moment. How could it be okay with such a big hole?
But he understood what Miss Jiu meant, so he responded and said, "Then I'll go back and prepare the salt. Don't worry about it. In business, there will always be losses."
The trees obscured the carriage, and there was no one around.
He changed into ordinary clothes, got on a ox cart from the roadside, and returned to the village again. Someone guided him to Chen Nianhai's home.
The wooden door closed and they sat at the table with serious expressions.
Jiusu looked around at the others and asked, "Isn't there another person?"
Chen Nianhai said, "He San is weak. His sister said he has a fever, so he's resting. Boss, do you want to look for him? Or should I go get him?"
Jiusu shook her head. She first comforted the two people with a few words and then let them go back.
Afterwards, she discussed a plan with Yu Da, Chen Nianhai, and Ayun. She said, "We need to lure the snake out of its hole. Let's go and see He San."
Chen Nianhai put his hand on the door bolt and didn't move.
Ayun asked: "What's wrong? Open the door quickly."
They could only see Chen Nianhai's back and couldn't make out his expression. They only felt a sense of loneliness. Chen Nianhai asked, "Boss, do you suspect He San?"
Jiusu pretended to be relaxed and said, "Maybe not."
Chen Nianhai nodded, not knowing what he was thinking. He opened the door and led everyone to He San's house. The two houses were far away from each other, and He San was very concentrated where they lived.
He clenched his fist and knocked on the door.
"He San, are you home?"
He Xiaomei timidly opened the door and trembled when she saw the stranger. When she saw Ayun, her nervousness and fear subsided a lot. "Sister Yun, Brother Dahai."
Ayun asked, "Xiaomei, is your brother home?"
The little girl hesitated for a few seconds and nodded, "He's lying in the house."
It can be called a yard, but it can't really be called a yard.
The half of the low wall on the right was smashed open, and it was obvious that it was man-made.
Jiusu's eyes fell on the marks on the wooden door, and he gently stroked them. There had been new marks in the past few days. Could someone have vandalized the door for no reason? Either seeking revenge, or threatening.
As soon as she entered the house, she understood what was going on.
The house is bare, but the medicine in the bowl on the table is good medicine.
Chen Nianhai said, "He San, the boss is here to see you."
Hearing this, He San walked out from the inner room, forcing an unnatural smile onto his dark face. His complexion was flushed, and he kept coughing, but there was no smell of medicine on his body.
He looked at the eggs on the table and his face turned red.
"Thank you for your consideration, Master."
Jiusu said meaningfully, "He San, if you encounter difficulties, you still have to speak out to solve them. If you help the evildoers, you will only end up in eternal damnation."
He San's arms kept shaking under his thin clothes.
He nodded dumbfoundedly: "Yes, I understand."
Until everyone left, the brother and sister were still standing in the simple main room. He San, who already had a fever, felt so uncomfortable that his legs and feet were weak. He covered his head with his hands. If it weren't for his sister, he would have fainted.
He Xiaomei's tears kept flowing: "Brother, what should I do?"
He San's face was pale and bloodless.
"I'm a bastard, a coward, a traitor, just burn me to death..."
He lay lifeless on the bed like a zombie, his whole body as if struck by lightning, his limbs numb, waiting for death to come.
He Xiaomei covered him with a quilt and looked at the eggs on the table.
She felt that delivering eggs was better than the group of people who smashed her house. She gritted her teeth and rushed out of the house. The uncovered courtyard wall around her made her shrink her neck.
The little face was pale with fear.
She took a deep breath, rushed out of the yard, and headed straight to the end of the alley.
"Boss!"
Suddenly, a man blocked He Xiaomei's way.
He Xiaomei was so scared that she ran back, but she was too scared and fell to the ground.
The man grabbed He Xiaomei's neck and pressed her against the wall like a chicken. He asked fiercely, "Girl, where are you going?"
