Three men in uniforms and hats walked in from the back of the crowd. The leader walked up to the yellow-haired man, stared at him, and said sternly, "Zhang Laosan, are you blackmailing me again?"
"I, I didn't... I just... I really got poisoned by eating red mushrooms..." The yellow-haired man avoided his gaze and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"Did you really buy your red mushrooms here?"
"Yes." The yellow-haired man's voice was as soft as a mosquito and could hardly be heard clearly.
"Let me ask you again, did you buy your red mushrooms here?" The uncle in the hat who was leading the group spoke in a more severe tone.
Huang Mao felt uneasy under his gaze, and swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue. He mumbled a few words and finally said, "No."
"Where did you buy your red mushrooms?"
"I didn't buy it, I picked it from the mountain." When he said this, Huangmao looked regretful.
"I thought it was authentic red mushroom, so I washed it and cooked it. But I ended up vomiting and having diarrhea after eating it. I had no choice but to call 120 and go to the hospital."
Uncle Hat snorted, "How dare you pick mushrooms from the mountain and eat them casually!"
"Hey, how would I know it's poisonous? Those red mushrooms all look the same, who knows which one is poisonous and which one is not!"
"Why did you go to this stall owner and slander her red mushrooms as poisonous?"
Huangmao scratched his hair, which looked like a chicken coop, and said helplessly, "I don't have any money! I spent thousands of yuan on hospitalization, and my pockets are already empty. I have no choice but to think of ways to make money. I happened to see that stall owner selling red mushrooms. She always sells out. I guess she is making a lot of money, so I set my sights on her."
Huang Mao explained everything honestly, and Shen Yunzhao was speechless. Did they think they were the ones being taken advantage of?
The crowd of onlookers was talking about it.
"I told you, Huangmao's red mushrooms are terrible. How could they possibly be bought from Boss Shen?"
"I've bought red mushrooms from Boss Shen three times, and the quality is always very good. She can't possibly be selling poisonous red mushrooms."
"Isn't that yellow-haired guy Zhang Laosan? He's a scoundrel! He hangs around here all the time, targeting local vendors every day. He claims their products are expired or defective, and demands compensation from them."
"Haha, Zhang Laosan has only been out of prison for less than half a year, and he's thinking of going back to jail again?"
Someone who knew Huangmao dug up all the bad things he had done and how many times he had been in jail.
Shen Yunzhao and Cheng Shaoyuan stepped forward to thank Uncle Hat and wanted to give them some red mushrooms, but Uncle Hat refused to accept them.
"Boss Shen, you can just set up your stall here without any worries. Zhang Laosan is a repeat offender, and we will reprimand and educate him. The amount he extorted this time was quite large, so he will probably be in jail for a while."
"Then we're relieved! Otherwise, I'd be worried that Zhang Laosan would find an opportunity to retaliate."
"Don't worry about that. Zhang Laosan doesn't have the guts. Okay, we have to go back too."
Uncle in the Hat handcuffed Huangmao and took him to the police station.
After the troublemakers left, there were already three layers of people in front of Shen Yunzhao's stall, and it was packed.
"Boss, give me a pound of red mushrooms!"
"Boss, I want 5 jins of red mushrooms and 3 jins of chicken mushrooms!"
"Boss, I was here first. Weigh them for me first. I want 5 catties of red mushrooms and 3 catties of chicken mushrooms!"
"Don't push! Boss, weigh me first..."
The incident with the yellow hair not only did not affect Shen Yunzhao's business, but it made it even better. In less than 20 minutes, all the red mushrooms and chicken mushrooms they brought were sold out. Some people wanted to make reservations in advance and even paid a deposit, but they were rejected.
"Huh, finally there's no one here!"
After the crowd dispersed, Shen Yunzhao took out his water cup, took a sip, and sat on a plastic stool to rest.
I haven't had any rest since I got up at 5 o'clock in the morning. I'm so tired.
Cheng Shaoyuan chatted with Uncle Fan, "Uncle Fan, who called Uncle Hat just now? Uncle Hat came just in time. I have to thank him very much."
Uncle Hat's appearance was so timely that Cheng Shaoyuan didn't believe it was a coincidence.
"Who else could it be? Old Qin!" Uncle Fan said, smoking a cigarette. "Old Qin is a veteran police officer. His son-in-law is also a police officer and the director of the local police station."
After finding out Uncle Qin's address from Uncle Fan, Cheng Shaoyuan planned to find Uncle Qin and thank him in person.
But before they left, Uncle Qin came over with a basket of vegetables.
Seeing that Shen Yunzhao and the others had packed up their things, he looked surprised and said, "Oh, you guys are closing up shop so early today?"
"Uncle Qin, our mushrooms are selling fast today and have already sold out." Shen Yunzhao explained, and then said, "Thank you for calling Uncle Hat for us."
Cheng Shaoyuan also said, "If it weren't for Uncle Hat coming here, this matter wouldn't have been handled so quickly. Thank you!"
"Hey, it's just something I did, why are you thanking me?"
Uncle Qin waved his hands, nonchalantly.
Shen Yunzhao and Cheng Shaoyuan thanked him again and said that they would give Uncle Qin a fish to thank him for his help.
Uncle Qin said quickly, "No, no! Forget the fish, just leave me a few pounds of red mushrooms next time."
"Don't worry, Uncle Qin. This fish is a wild grass carp we caught ourselves. We didn't buy it at the market."
When he heard that the fish was his own, Uncle Qin didn't refuse anymore and said, "Okay, give me one."
At this time, Uncle Qin still thought that the grass carp weighed only five or six pounds or seven or eight pounds and was not precious.
He had no idea how good the wild goods Shen Yunzhao sent were.
…
We closed the stall early today, but there was still a lot of work to do.
Chen Yunzhao and Cheng Shaoyuan didn't even have a sip of water when they returned home. They went straight to Zhou Xingyu's Xingguang Restaurant to deliver the goods.
Zhou Xingyu waited at the hotel entrance after receiving Shen Yunzhao's call. As soon as Shen Yunzhao arrived, he immediately looked at the goods and inspected them.
Zhou Xingyu had sharp eyes and knew at a glance that all these mushrooms were top quality. The red mushrooms at 170 yuan per pound were really not expensive, not only not expensive, but also very cheap.
Zhou Xingyu immediately had a new idea and warmly invited,
"Yun Zhao, Shao Yuan, come with me to my office for tea."
Shen Yunzhao quickly refused, "No, Brother Xingyu, there are too many things going on at home. I'm not free today. Let's do it another day!" Shen Yunzhao refused. Are you kidding? He still has to go into the space to pick bayberries later. How can he have time to drink tea?
"It's just a cup of tea. It won't take much time."
"I really don't have time. There are so many things going on at home. I don't even have time to go shopping."
Seeing that Shen Yunzhao was indeed busy, Zhou Xingyu said nothing more.
The two then agreed on the delivery time, quantity and price.
It is also delivered on 24th, 25th and 26th, 60 kilograms of red mushrooms and 30 kilograms of chicken mushrooms, the price is the same as that of Huahui Restaurant.
