Chen Heng had previously thought that she would go to the restaurant for a lavish meal when she got rich, but she didn't expect that the restaurant would go bankrupt before she could do so.
"It's so cold and boring, let's go see what's going on." A waiter suggested.
"Let's go." Chen Heng agreed immediately, and her aura instantly rose. This scene was more captivating than a short video.
A few shop assistants were reluctant to go because it was too cold, so they stayed behind to look after the shop. Chen Heng then followed the managers and shop assistants to watch the fun.
Dingguo Street is like a luxury goods street nowadays. Ordinary people seldom come here if they have nothing to do. Even if they see it, they can’t afford to buy anything. They just look at it with envy.
The Meng family has three large shops on this street. Chen Heng came here to study, so she went to the more accessible shops. Ruo also has some basic skills and is planning to give some gifts to the head shopkeeper after the New Year so that she can get a backdoor transfer to a large shop for further study.
The area in front of Guangju Building was already crowded with people. Not only that, guests from the surrounding restaurants, teahouses and other buildings also came out to watch the excitement.
"Don't push, why are you pushing? What's there to see?" People in the crowd murmured from time to time.
"Then stop looking. What are you still standing here for?"
"Try to squeeze in again. Those who come later should go to the back of the line."
Chen Heng took advantage of the quarrel and saw a loophole and squeezed in shamelessly. Wow, there were so many government officials.
"Big brother, what happened?" Shen Heng asked the man beside him curiously.
"I heard that the two owners of Guangjulou killed someone. They opened such a big restaurant and made so much money, but they still couldn't let it go." A man shook his head.
"I heard that the owner of Guangju Tower has someone in the palace backing him up."
"It seems like he's saying that the man who was killed also had someone from the palace behind him."
The man looked puzzled: "I see, that's why."
Chen Heng was also confused, as if she knew something terrible, but also as if she knew nothing at all.
At this time, two men handcuffed with square shackles were escorted out. Shen Heng hadn't expected the owner of Guangju Tower to look quite young, and one of them looked familiar. She hadn't seen him before, so the original owner must have seen him before.
As he searched his memory, his face changed. At the same time, he saw two women running out of the restaurant crying.
"My son has been wrongly accused." The old woman hugged one of the owners and refused to let him go. "Officer, please have a good heart and release my son."
"Husband, husband." The fat woman also hugged one of them and cried bitterly: "If you leave, what will happen to me and my son?"
Shen Heng recognized these two women. They were the wife and daughter-in-law of the Xie clan leader. So, the two bosses in front of her were Xie Changgen's two sons.
She did remember that the Xie family members had mentioned that one of the Xie family's sons was doing business in the imperial capital, and then the younger son followed him. However, she didn't expect that the business would be so big, and on Dingguo Street.
Chen Heng began to look for someone around, and sure enough, on the third floor of a nearby restaurant, she saw a familiar figure, Xie Jian.
