Chapter 674 The unlucky day of the fake shop

In the backyard of Yun Xiangrong, a fake knitting shop, the female shopkeeper was reporting the situation to Li Mingyuan's wife.

"Madam, there is nothing I can do about the poor business. Recently, when customers come, they say that we imitate Hua Xiangrong, and that our stitches are too simple. After looking at the styles, they say that our styles are all the same as Hua Xiangrong, and there is nothing new. ." The female shopkeeper said with a sad face.

Mrs. Li glanced at her, pointed at the female shopkeeper and said, "What's the use of supporting you? Don't you think of a way to hold a new product launch conference?"

The female shopkeeper wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, her face completely drooped, as if she had been hit by frost, "I can't think of anything, everything I can think of has been thought of by Hua Xiangrong, even the following embroidery workers can't think of anything. .”

"Fart, why does Hua Xiangrong still say that she will launch new styles every quarter in the future? How could they think of it, but you can't? After buying such expensive samples, you haven't figured out the weaving method yet, you Tell me, what else can you use?" Mrs. Li's nails painted with Dankou had already poked into the forehead of the female shopkeeper.

"Yes, yes, what Madam said is that the subordinate is incompetent." The female shopkeeper said while wiping the cold sweat from her forehead.

"We can have all the styles Hua Xiangrong has, and the price is half the price. You would be stupid to pay such a high price for Hua Xiangrong to make it. Why don't you tell your customers about it?" Mrs. Li continued to scold.

The female shopkeeper couldn't help but nodded, but she thought in her heart that those people were really stupid. They would rather spend a lot of money than be fakes. Those ladies were all very face-conscious, so only those from small families came around. .

"If we don't have Hua Xiangrong's acupuncture skills, we will try to get people to come to Hua Xiangrong to secretly learn it. I still don't believe that it can't be done with money?" Mrs. Li continued to poke the female shopkeeper on the forehead and scolded, "What are you using your brain for?" Yes? Use your brain more if you have nothing to do. If business continues to be bad, just pack up and leave!"

Suddenly there were panicked footsteps outside, and a steward shouted: "Madam, something's wrong!"

Madam Li was so angry that she smashed the tea cup in her hand, "Dog | slave, what are you doing in such a hurry? Whoever is doing something wrong, slap me!"

The maid next to her rushed over and slapped the steward a dozen times. In an instant, the steward's face was swollen like a pig's head.

After the beating, he was finally able to speak. He hummed and said, "Madam, it's a serious matter. The man in the prison confessed to you, and the government has sent someone to arrest you for questioning. I’m afraid I’ll be here soon.”

Mrs. Li stood up as soon as she heard this. She glared at the steward and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Go and send a letter to Mrs. Meng quickly and ask her to find a way to help me."

The steward responded and ran away in a hurry, fearing that he would be angered again accidentally. Didn't he just want to say it earlier? As a result, he was beaten so hard that he couldn't speak at all.

Mrs. Li also walked out. She didn't want to be caught in Yun Xiangrong, otherwise other ladies in the city would know that she was Yun Xiangrong's boss. How would she see anyone then?

Unfortunately, she was a step too late. As soon as she left the shop, she was blocked by officials outside.

"Mrs. Li, someone reported that you are the boss behind Yun Xiangrong Knitting Hall, and caused your subordinates to frame Hua Xiangrong Knitting Hall. Mr. Fu Yin sent you to the court for questioning." The official said loudly.

For a while, everyone nearby heard this, and people in the shop next to it also started whispering. I am afraid that within three days, all the ladies in Beiyu City will know that Mrs. Li has opened a fake shop, right?

Mrs. Li was so angry that she wanted to curse, but she didn't dare to offend the official. She said with a cold face: "Don't listen to the nonsense of the person who made the false accusation. I will go to the Yamen to explain it clearly to Mr. Fu Yin."

…

When Bai Ruozhu learned the news, she was in a good mood and said to the guard Tensor Liangcai: "Let's get started, and do it more carefully."

"Yes, Miss." Zhang Liangcai took the order and left on horseback.

In the court, Lu Minglang was interrogating Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li didn't want to admit that she was Yun Xiangrong's boss, but the Chamber of Commerce had it on record, so she couldn't admit it. She had no choice but to insist that it was the servants who were trying to do this. They were afraid of being punished if their business failed, so they came up with this crooked idea. She even pretended to scold the steward in court: "Why are you so unsatisfactory?" ? If the business is not good, you can think of a way, but how can you use such a harmful method? "

She said and glared at the steward. She had the handle in her hand. She originally thought that even if something happened, he would not dare to confess her, but she didn't expect that now he was biting like crazy and ignored her. A ruthless look flashed in Mrs. Li's eyes. Don't you want the lives of his family?

"You also taught me the method. You arrested my wife and children and threatened them. If I don't do things for you, you will kill them." The steward said and kowtowed to Lu Minglang. While kowtowing, he said: "Please, sir." Please save my wife and children. I am willing to plead guilty and tell everything. I just ask you to send someone to save my wife and children now to avoid being murdered by Mrs. Li."

He was speaking sincerely at this moment, and blood was dripping from his forehead. Lu Minglang couldn't help but feel a little moved, and sent an official to the Li Mansion to pick up his wife and children.

Mrs. Li gritted her teeth in hatred, but she did not dare to speak and offend Mr. Fu Yin.

At this time, a woman outside suddenly came to complain. It was Yun Xiangrong who complained, saying that fake pearls were used in the things Yun Xiangrong sold to fool customers.

Mrs. Li pricked up her ears and listened carefully. Did she hear it correctly? The person suing was not Hua Xiangrong, but Yun Xiangrong?

Mr. Lu called the complaining woman in and asked her why she was suing Yun Xiangrong. The woman came out with a shirt inlaid with millet grains and pearls and said, "To tell you what, I bought it at Yun Xiangrong last month." I bought a piece of clothing because I thought it was cheap, but I didn’t expect that the small pearls on it were all fake. Originally, the small pearls were not very valuable, so I didn’t particularly look at them. But today I crushed one of them and discovered the mystery inside. . A shop like Yun Xiangrong that has no integrity and deceives customers should not be opened!"

"You, you are framing us. How could Yun Xiangrong use fake pearls?" Mrs. Li screamed when she heard this.

But she felt guilty after all. She had indeed faked the small pearls, because no one would pay special attention to those small pearls, or even their value. They were used as decorations, but how could anyone find out?

She didn't know that Bai Ruozhu had already learned from the jewelry supplier that she had found someone to buy fake pearls, and that she had already used these pearls. It's just that Bai Ruozhu was looking for a better opportunity to make a move, and the opportunity came today. Got it!

The complaining lady glanced sideways at her and said to Lu Minglang in the hall: "Sir, they sold a lot of clothes and accessories with these small beads. Otherwise, I would ask them to take the account book to see who they sold to, and have someone take it over to see. You can tell the authenticity by looking at it, and I don’t think I’m the only one who’s unlucky enough to buy a fake, right?”
