Chapter 201: Seasoning Stolen

The family of three looked at each other.

Then he walked in with a swagger.

Bai Qianshan closed the door, took out two tinder sticks from his pocket, handed one to his son, and said, "Ji Zu, go look inside the house and in front of the shop. Come, take the tinder stick. Wife, you look in the yard. I'll go to the kitchen."

The house was very dark, unlike the yard, where the moonlight allowed for just a vague view.

It would be bad if something was broken while groping in the dark and a night watchman passing by heard it.

After all, at this time, most people would have been fast asleep.

Bai Qianshan was very thoughtful.

Looks like a veteran.

"Okay." Bai Jizu agreed readily.

He usually hangs out with a bunch of bad friends and is not a good person to begin with. When he heard that his parents were going to take him to the shop to steal things, he was extremely excited.

Taking the tinder, the father and son removed the lid together, and a small flame suddenly jumped up.

The fire was so dim that it could not penetrate the wall at all.

Bai Jizu lifted the curtain and went to the front of the shop.

The couple also moved separately.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Bai Qianshan saw a jar on the stove.

It was pitch black, had a cut on it, and looked a bit dirty.

He curled his lips in disdain, not paying much attention, walked around the stove and turned to rummage through the cupboards.

However, nothing was achieved.

So he searched the baskets and bamboo baskets in the corners, and even checked the bowls and basins one by one.

The dim firelight illuminated the wrinkles on Bai Qianshan's face clearly.

His frown became more and more intense.

Just as he was about to leave in disappointment, he suddenly thought of the jar. Just as he was about to open it, he heard a woman's voice suddenly coming from the yard.

Very familiar, and especially big.

The father and son were so frightened that they ran out quickly.

"What's wrong? What are you yelling about? Shut up quickly, or someone will hear you. If that happens, neither of us will be in any trouble."

Bai Qianshan was so scared that he quickly covered Wan Zhen's mouth.

His eyes became much sharper.

He regretted it.

If I had known, he would have been outside taking a walk.

Not coming in.

What's more, our shop is not located in a neighboring house.

The shops on both sides were connected to other people's shops, separated only by a wall. If someone heard what was happening and got suspicious, they would shout "Stop thief", and everything would be over.

After all, the Jiang family doesn't sleep in the shop at night.

They must have seen it all when they left on the ox cart every day. They knew it all clearly.

"Okay, okay, I won't scream. I'm just scared. Boss, look, why is there water in this well? I remember this well was dry, right? We didn't dig deep at first, and there was no water at all. Where did this water come from? It's really strange, and it's not raining."

Wanzhen's face turned pale because he was frightened.

She pointed at the well at her feet with a look of horror.

I accidentally looked down and saw my own reflection in the well, and I was startled.

I thought there was a ghost in the well.

My hands are still shaking.

Hearing this, Bai Qianshan walked to the well, bent down, and brought the fire lighter closer.

I saw myself in the well holding a fire starter.

He exclaimed softly.

"Wow, there is indeed water, and it's quite full. How can there be water? Could it be that the Jiang family carried it from the river? Humph, how stupid! Instead of filling up the well with water, you might as well take a few more steps. Okay, keep looking. Don't be so startled. There are people living on both sides. Keep your voice down."

On the left is the wine shop, where the waiter lives all year round.

On the right is a tea shop, selling tea from various places. The owner and his family also live in the backyard.

No more noise.

"Dad, Mom, how about we sprinkle some medicine in the water? That way, the customers will get sick and won't come. Her business will be bad, and the shop will definitely not be able to continue operating. Then she won't be able to make back the rent, and she will definitely beg us to refund her the rent. We can just refund a symbolic amount, wouldn't that save us money?"

Bai Jizu had evil intentions.

"Are you stupid? If the customers get sick from eating, who would dare to eat after we take over? Even if we want to sell food, we have to use the Jiang family's name. How can we ruin their reputation? It's not worth it for such a small rent. Okay, go back and search. Wife, you should search quickly too. Remember, stop yelling and be gentle."

Bai Qianshan heard what his silly son said.

I am speechless to the extreme.

It's so stupid and sad.

He was furious at the thought that he had given birth to such a fool of a son.

He glared at the mother and son, and gave them careful instructions several times before returning to the kitchen with peace of mind.

He had just turned the kitchen upside down but couldn't find any seasoning.

And the jar on the stove came into his sight.

Black and greasy.

It is covered with a wooden lid.

I thought it was impossible for the seasoning to be put in this broken jar.

Thinking of opening it and taking a look.

If not, leave.

It's better not to watch this.

At first glance, Bai Qianshan couldn't hide the joy on his face at all.

"Found it, finally found it." He said to himself.

He put his nose close to the can and took a deep breath.

It's really a spice flavor.

A bit spicy.

As a result, he sneezed three times in a row.

"Dad, there's nothing in the house and in front of the shop except for miscellaneous items. Did you find the seasoning? The Jiang family didn't find anything, did they? Why is there nothing in the shop? There are only three pieces of firewood left. Did they know we were coming?"

Bai Jizu's face was filled with disappointment. Before coming here, he thought he could find some good stuff, such as silver, while his parents were not paying attention.

Then he would secretly put it in his pocket.

But I'm still busy now.

Not even a hair was found.

I might as well go home and sleep with my wife in my arms. It's so boring.

“Found it.”

Bai Qianshan's tone was very excited, and he walked out of the kitchen. Bai Jizu wanted to follow him, but he saw a palm-sized bottle of wine in the cabinet.

He has drunk this wine.

A small bottle costs one or two taels of silver. It's a good thing!

Bai Jizu's narrow eyes narrowed like a crack in a door.

A cunning light flashed in his eyes, the left corner of his mouth curled up high, and he stretched out his hand and took the bottle of wine.

Afraid of being scolded by my own father.

He also hid the wine inside his outer shirt.

In the yard.

Wan Zhen and Bai Qianshan held the jar and looked at it for a long time.

There was surprise on both of their faces.

Get what you want.

They didn't even notice the bulge in their son's chest.

"With this seasoning, the food from now on can only be made by our Bai family. What Jiang family snack shop? Humph! It's all gone. Come on, pour the seasoning in the jar in."

Bai Qianshan gave a sinister smile.

When he spoke, his mouth full of yellow teeth was exposed, looking uneven and disgusting.

Before coming, he brought a box with him.

It's just perfect for storing seasonings.

In order to avoid stealing the jar and being discovered by the Jiang family.

After transferring the seasoning, Bai Qianshan put the jar back in its original place.
