my grandmother

Chapter 209

There is indeed great power when there are many people.

A group of people entered Changshu County, followed by Wan Qing's four elders and took a step ahead in the morning. At this moment, they had already found an inn and booked a small courtyard.

After settling down, Wan Qing took out a list of Jiangnan weaving workshops from the cage and put it in front of Li Xiaonan.

This roster also comes with a map, which weaving workshop is clearly marked. Although the map is simple, it is enough to see the approximate location.

Wan Qing and Li Xiaonan looked at the roster with pictures, discussed a few words, and made the arrangement: four long followers plus Li Wenru and A Wu, each of them will be divided into one family and two, and they will go to these weaving workshops to check it out tomorrow morning .

Wang Yuting stretched out his head and asked how to eat for dinner.

Without waiting for Li Xiaonan to speak, Wan Qing said first: "We are all sent out on missions, the rules in our house, there are rules for food, lodging and transportation, or..."

"Since there are rules, then you eat yours and we eat ours." Li Xiaonan interrupted Wan Qing.

Anyway, Wan Qing brought these people here to help her. It's fine if she doesn't spend money and doesn't care about the food, and it's too much to waste food. Besides, she's not alone, Ah Wu and Yu Ting eat a lot Not small.

"Let's borrow the kitchen to make it ourselves, steam the rice in a pot, spread a few slices of bacon on top, and fry egg sauce." Li Xiaonan and Yu Ting said.

The bacon, rice, eggs and sauce were all brought from home by them, and they were in the car.

"I'll eat by myself too. I've been tired all day, and I want to drink some wine to relieve my fatigue." Li Wenru laughed hurriedly.

Tsk, these sisters are too good at living. He can bear this food for a day or two, but this trip will last a month. He can't bear pickled vegetables and bacon every day.

"That's fine." Li Xiaonan smiled dryly.

She also wanted to eat and drink well, but the elder sister paid for it on a daily basis.Of course, the elder sister has already considered that she is greedy and enjoys it, and has already added [-]% more copper coins to the standards of the elder sister and the second elder sister.

Li Wenru was about to stand up and ask the shopkeeper to cook a few dishes, when he raised his eyes and met Ah Wu's staring gaze. He was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and asked with a busy smile, "Ah Wu is tired too, let's have a drink?"

Li Wenru's voice hadn't finished yet, Ah Wu had already nodded in agreement, looked at Li Xiaonan and said with a smile: "I'll have a drink with Second Master Li. You and Yuting..."

A Wu's fingers point from Li Xiaonan to Wang Yuting, laughing a few times.

"I know what you're laughing at. You're laughing at me for cooking bad food, right?" Wang Yuting answered immediately.

Li Xiaonan looked at Wang Yuting who couldn't wait to say that she was cooking pig stew, and sighed.

"You can eat with me. I am second class. There are so many regular dishes. I can't eat them all by myself. When I was in Bieye, two little girls in our courtyard kept eating my regular dishes. Those two This little girl has a bigger appetite than you." Wan Qing poked Li Xiaonan and said in a low voice.

"Yes, yes, you have a very small appetite, and I don't have a big appetite. I will get together with Ah Wu, and a few mouthfuls of Ah Wu will be enough for me to eat." Yu Ting hurriedly answered.

"Okay, okay, you take ten eggs and add something to everyone." Li Xiaonan sighed and waved to Wang Yuting.

She also resigned and changed jobs because the cafeteria was too unpalatable. Besides, the bacon pickled by sister Mei was really unpalatable.

In the morning of the next day, in just one hour, all the people who went out to inquire about several weaving workshops came back.

There are eleven weaving workshops in Changshu County, seven of which are the sub-colons of the big weaving workshops in Hangzhou and other places. Among the seven weaving workshops, Li Xiaonan knows two:
Xiangyunfang, the home of President Zhu of the Jiangnan Silk Head Office, and Ruifufang, the home of the chairman of the Pingjiang Silk Industry.

The heads of the two weaving workshops are currently being detained in the military barracks in Linhai Town. She doesn't know the details of President Shi's case, and President Zhu must have more than one life in his hands.

"These seven said that the day before yesterday was still the same as before. They suddenly stopped around noon the day before yesterday. They didn't go to work yesterday or today. The other four small weaving workshops have always been watching these seven. The weaving workshop has not started work since yesterday.

"Why did it stop suddenly? Is there any news about Linhai Town's case?" Li Wenru looked at Li Xiaonan and subconsciously lowered his voice.

Li Xiaonan frowned slightly, and instead of answering Li Wenru's question, she asked instead, "Did the seven families stop together?"

"The two families I asked were at noon the day before yesterday, how about you?" Li Wenru turned to look at A Wu and his long followers.

"The two I saw were small weaving workshops, they stopped yesterday." A Wu folded his arms on his chest, frowning tightly, with a serious expression on his face.

The elders answered, the seven big weaving workshops all stopped working around noon the day before yesterday, the four small weaving workshops stopped working one after another since yesterday, and the ten weaving workshops did not start work today.

"Where's the weaver? Are you home?" Li Xiaonan then asked.

"It seems that they are all in the weaving workshop. There is a dental shop on the way back, so I went in and asked, and they said that there was no weaver to entrust them, not a single one." Li Wenru replied.

"The work has just stopped for two days, and we are still waiting for the letter. We will definitely not sell weavers right now. Weavers are the hardest to buy." Wan Qing answered.

Li Xiaonan hummed, Wan Qing was right, if the work was suspended the day before yesterday, it would not be time to sell weavers.

"Go and see what the weavers are doing. Quietly, if you can find the weavers, it's best to ask them. Ask what the steward told them, and whether they will be paid if they are so idle." Li Xiaonan looked at Li Wenru and a couple of long entourages.

A Wu also agreed, and when he turned to go out, Li Xiaonan grabbed him, "You're making too much noise, don't go."

"You..." Ah Wu stared at Li Xiaonan.

"You go shopping with Yu Ting, see how many silk shops and cloth shops there are in the city, and ask how the business is going." Li Xiaonan interrupted Ah Wu, beckoning to Yu Ting.

Watching the two go out, Wan Qing stood up and sat next to Li Xiaonan, stretched her head to look at Li Xiaonan's expression, "Are you all right?"

"Why are you all right? These seven weaving workshops, one in Pingjiang City, two in Hangzhou, two in Yangzhou, one in Yuezhou, and one in Danyang, why did they stop working on the same day?" Li Xiaonan asked. He moved his head forward, his face almost touching Wan Qing's.

"Yes! Why?" Wan Qing was surprised.

"Let me ask you again, Zhifang and Zhifang, do they have a good relationship and share the same spirit, or are they enemies?" Li Xiaonan rolled her eyes at Wan Qing angrily.

"Usually they must be enemies, but now, they must be united against our elder son, right?" Wan Qing raised her ass and whispered into Li Xiaonan's ear.

"It must be because of this, they want to make trouble together! We negotiated to suspend work together! You write a letter and tell your son about this." Li Xiaonan patted Wan Qing.

"What about us?" Wan Qing hurriedly stood up, leaned over and took the inkstone, poured water and studied the ink, "Wait here?"

"What's the use of waiting here? When they come back from their inquiry, let's leave immediately and go to Wujiang County to have a look. If it's really stopped everywhere, and if it stopped the day before yesterday, alas, there won't be a single weaver. , or there are too many weavers to buy all."

Li Xiaonan sits next to Wan Qing, watching her write with a sigh.
