Chapter 115 Miscalculation
However, collecting beans is a messy job, and many strangers will come to the door. Gu Jinli was worried that Gu Jinxiu was a grown-up girl, so he said: "Grandpa Third, let Rob's family do the work of collecting beans in the future. .”
Luo's father, Mrs. Chu, would take turns to work at the stall, but Luo Wu would not. He never left the stall. He grinded beans at home every day and often ran to her house. Gu Jinli knew that he was worried about Gu Jinxiu and wanted to guard her.
So she wanted to leave the job to him.
Luo Wu could not agree more. Without waiting for Luo's father, Mrs. Chu, to speak, he said: "Third Grandpa, I can do this job. Let the bean seller come to my house."
The third grandfather looked at Luo’s father, Mrs. Chu, and asked, “Tiezhu, Tiezhu’s wife, what do you say?”
Luo's father, Mrs. Chu, naturally nodded in agreement: "The beans are originally ground at my house. Putting the place where the beans are collected is more convenient than at other houses."
The matter is settled.
On the second day, many people went to Luo’s house to sell beans, and at the tofu stalls in the town, there were also many farmers carrying loads of beans to sell to them.
"Mr. Gu, we are here to deliver soybeans to you. Look at my soybeans. They are dry and plump. There are no bad beans."
“The same goes for mine, they are all good beans that have been picked.”
Third Grandpa smiled and said: "Go to Xiaoyu and Sanlang, weigh the soybeans to them, and then come to the old man to get the money."
When the bean seller heard this, he hurriedly went to find Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang.
Gu Jinli, Qin Sanlang, took Gu Qingtian and Gu Qingliang to collect beans together. The two half-year-old children collected two thousand kilograms of soybeans in just one hour.
…
At the grain store, shopkeeper Tao was happily waiting for the Gu family to come to him to ask for help, but who would have thought that he had miscalculated.
As soon as the Gu family left their stall, a large group of farmers came to deliver soybeans to them.
Shopkeeper Tao was so angry that he smashed the abacus on the counter and cursed: "You've gone too far. These poor people dare to sell soybeans to the Gu family. This is a slap in the face of my Tao family."
"To attract good fortune, go and spread the word. If anyone dares to sell beans to the Gu family, our Tao family's grain store will not accept their food!"
Farmers make a living by cultivating the land and selling food. If he doesn't collect their food, the food of those poor people will just wait to rot in their hands.
“Go find a few beggars and ask them to smash up the Gu’s tofu stall. You’ve only been setting up the stall for a few days and you think you’re a businessman? Damn, you’re a bunch of poor people. The mud on their legs hasn’t been washed off yet.”
“Don’t worry, shopkeeper, I’ll take care of it now.” Zhaofu hurried to the ruined temple outside the town, found Liu Sanzi, gave him a tael of silver, and asked him to lead a group of beggars to cause trouble at Gu’s tofu stall.
He also promised to give him one tael of silver and a pound of rice after the work was completed.
Liu Sanzi, a group of beggars who had no family or job, besides begging, also made a living by helping rich households do shady things. When they saw a job coming to their door, they naturally agreed and came with twenty beggars in an aggressive manner. When we got to town, we went straight to Gu’s tofu stall.
As soon as I arrived at the Gujia tofu stall, I sat in front of their tofu stall and sang a begging song. In short, it meant begging for food and money, and I would not leave until I gave it.
The farmers who came to sell soybeans and the customers who came to buy tofu and bean dregs cakes saw this and stepped away for fear of hurting themselves.
Third Grandpa wanted to put an end to the problem, so he took a basket of bean dregs cakes to them and said, "We are a small business and have nothing to give you. Let's eat these bean cakes for convenience."
After Liu Sanzi grabbed a few bean dregs cakes, he slapped the bamboo basket away with his palm and fell to the ground. He cried, "Oh, the Gu family is beating people and bullying the beggars." Several beggars followed him and rolled on the ground. Sa Po, crying and shouting: "The Gu family is killing people, bullying beggars."
The remaining dozen beggars picked up the wooden sticks in their hands, surrounded the third grandfather, pointed at him and said: "Old guy, if you dare to hit our eldest brother, please pay for it!"
The third grandfather was confused. He didn’t expect that he was so kind as to bring them bread to eat, but he was beaten up and rake.
Gu Qingliang and Gu Qingtian were frightened. They went out to do business well, but they encountered beggars causing trouble.
Gu Damu and Yan were also very frightened. Gu Dagui and Chen were so angry that one picked up a pole and the other picked up a shovel to fight the beggars.
But before the couple could take action, Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang rushed out.
With two bangs, Qin Sanlang kicked a beggar away and knocked down another beggar with a punch.
Gu Jinli grabbed a beggar's hand, twisted it hard, and broke the beggar's hand with a click, then kicked him down with a flying kick.
Pulling out the dagger, with a whoosh, she slashed a beggar who was hitting her with a wooden stick. Then she jumped in front of Liu Sanzi, stepped on his abdomen with her foot, then put the dagger against his neck, and sneered: "I want to make trouble here." Extorting money without even checking whether you have the ability."
With his fists and kicks, Qin Sanlang had knocked down five or six beggars. Seeing how powerful he was, the other beggars were too frightened to come forward.
A few beggars were so frightened that they knelt on the ground with a plop: "Good man, good man, please spare your life. We are just following orders, not deliberately causing trouble."
Qin Sanlang was not hesitant. He immediately picked up the beggar who was talking. He first took off one of his arms with a click, and then asked: "Whose order is it? Tell me!"
"Ah!" The beggar's arm was pulled out of joint, and he screamed and cried: "It's the guy from Tao's grain store who brought us good luck. He gave us a tael of silver and asked us to come and cause trouble for you."
Originally, they were used to doing this and succeeded every time. Who would have expected that this time they encountered two evil spirits.
The beggar looked at Gu Jinli, who was holding a dagger, and then at Qin Sanlang. Are these two still children? So vicious.
Liu Sanzi saw that Li Erdan had revealed what happened to them, and wanted to stop him, but when his neck hurt, he was so frightened that he cried out: "Auntie, please forgive me, we don't dare to do it anymore."
The third grandfather was afraid that the actions of Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang would frighten the people around him, so he immediately came out and said: "Folks, don't be afraid. The two children learned some boxing when they were in their hometown. They were forced to do it today. We are not unreasonable. They won’t do anything to them, we will report it to the official.”
Third Grandpa turned to Gu Damu and said, "Damu, go to Si Lifang to report to the official and ask the messenger to come over."
“Oh, I’ll go right away.” Gu Damu hurried to the official office and told them about the beggars causing trouble in their stall.
The person on duty today is Lao Kong. Lao Kong knows the relationship between the Gu family and Shang Xiucai and Jiang Xianwei. Jiang Xianwei also sent a message to them, asking them to take care of the Gu family. If something happens to the Gu family, they must go and help.
As soon as Lao Kong heard Gu Damu's words, he immediately called Dasheng, Kangzi, and Haizi to rush to Gu's tofu stall and **** Liu Sanzi and his group.
Lao Kong knew that the Gu family would do business on the street in the future, and he was afraid that what Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang would do would scare the guests, so he shouted: "Fellow folks, don't be afraid. The Gu family is a good family and will not hurt anyone casually. The little girl of the Gu family I also saved the county captain’s granddaughter, and the county captain praised her. The Yamen will handle this matter today, and you can just take care of the family’s business as usual from now on.”
After hearing this, the people present felt relieved and helped scold the beggars: "Good job. This Liu Sanzi always brings beggars to the town to beg for things. All of us who live in the town have been defrauded of money and food by them. It's best." Catch them and send them to the official mines to make them suffer and see if they dare to extort everyone's things in the future."
