I was the best old lady in ancient times
Chapter 58 Backer
Chapter 58 Backer
Seeing how frightened the servants were, County Magistrate Pan snorted through his nostrils.
Let's see who dares to make arrangements behind his back in the future, this is what Liu Laizi will end up doing like this.
This matter was a dispute of words, and with the testimony of the old doctor in the clinic, the wound on the little girl's heart was indeed beyond what a woman's strength could do.
In addition, Liu Laizi had already been beaten to calm his anger, so he naturally wanted to settle the case quickly.
After all, there are still many ordinary people outside this court, and because of the farce in the medical hall just now, they flocked to the gate of the county government office to watch the magistrate Pan's trial!
And Ning Pengpeng kept calling him the master Qingtian, which was very pleasing to the ears.
He didn't mind, he gave Ning a grace to let her remember his kindness.
However, before he pronounced the sentence and asked Liu Laizi to return the money that the Ning family had paid in the medical clinic to the Ning family, and then went back to each house, he heard the master quietly approaching and whispering a few words in his ear.
When County Magistrate Pan heard what Master said, he immediately raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at him.
"Is what you said true?"
"My lord, then Guanshi Xu is from the Liu residence, so there should be no fakes."
Hearing what the master said, Magistrate Pan's eyes fell on Ning Pengpeng again, his eyes full of scrutiny.
"Put this Liu Laizi in jail first, and we will retry this matter at another day, and we will leave the court."
After speaking, he took a deep look at Ning Pengpeng, patted the gavel, and then turned and left the courtroom.
Seeing this sudden change, Ning Pengpeng felt a sudden shock in his heart.
What she saw just now was true. Originally, the magistrate was ready to judge the case, but the master did not know what he said to the magistrate, which made the magistrate change his mind.
County magistrate Pan returned to the backyard of the county government office, waved the concubine and servants to retreat, and then called the master over.
"Master Fang, tell me, if this Liu Laizi died in the cell, and then I arrested the entire Ning family and sentenced them to the crime of wounding others to death, would the Ning family obediently arrest the sugar maker Fang?" Submission?"
"The subordinates think that this matter is not bad, but, although Guanshi Xu is the confidant of Young Master Liu, what he said this time makes people feel a little strange.
After all, the recipe for making brown sugar is a secret of the Liu family.
How can he know that he is a steward with a foreign surname?
I'm afraid, there must be a reason for it, we have to investigate carefully before we can take the next step. "
Master Fang pondered for a moment before giving advice.
"You're right. If Manager Xu came to Anzhen, it wouldn't be a day or two. If he found out that the Ning family had a way to make sugar, he would definitely inform Young Master Liu.
But until today, when the Ning family sued Liu Laizi to the court, he came to you in a hurry instead of me. There must be some reason we don't know.
However, I don't care what their reasons are, whether it's the Ning family or the Liu family, as long as I can get the formula for making sugar, then I will surely be able to make a fortune in the future, just around the corner!
Hahahahaha..."
Thinking of his own waist and purple clothes in the future, County Magistrate Pan's eyebrows trembled with laughter.
Ning Pengpeng and the three of them walked out of the gate of the county government, and Ning Pengpeng looked back subconsciously.
The county government hall, like a beast, opened its mouth, waiting for the prey to fall into the net, Ning Pengpeng couldn't help shivering.
On the other side, shopkeeper Su rushed to the state capital at high speed, and went directly to see the owner before he had time to freshen up.
Pei Yan frowned, and looked at the prescription handed over by Shopkeeper Su carefully.
"Is this prescription true?"
"The subordinates went to the woman's house with their own eyes, and watched how she operated it. They stayed on the sidelines for another night, and they indeed made candy whiter than snow. This recipe is absolutely true."
After the shopkeeper Su finished speaking, he took out the oiled paper bag from his arms, opened it carefully, and placed it in front of the owner.
Pei Yan lowered his head to take a closer look, then picked up the oiled paper bag, put it under his nose and sniffed lightly, and immediately smelled a sweet fragrance.
He thought for a while, then stretched out his hand and twirled a few pieces of white sugar into his mouth. The white sugar, like snowflakes, instantly melted on the tip of his tongue, and the sweetness spread throughout his mouth.
"You said you bought this prescription for only 1000 taels of silver?"
"Yes, this subordinate couldn't believe it at all, but the old lady didn't seem to be very knowledgeable about goods. Although she kept saying that she had sold the prescription cheaply, my subordinates saw her smiling after taking the 1000 taels of silver. Satisfied with the price."
"Hmph, if you can come to bargain with you for business, do you think she will be ignorant?"
Pei Yan snorted, put down the oil-paper bag in his hand, and tapped his fingers on the table.
"Does she have other requests?"
"Just ask us to collect sugar cane from their village in the future, yes, and allow her to make sugar herself in the future."
Shopkeeper Su thought for a while, and besides these requirements, there seemed to be nothing else!
"Let her make sugar herself? Then she must know that this white sugar can do many things.
You just said that she just wanted to sell you a recipe for food at first.
After seeing you, he changed his mind and sold you the recipe for making this sugar at such a low price.
It seems that she knows that she can't keep the recipe for making sugar in that remote village, so she simply finds a suitable family and uses it as her backing! "
Shopkeeper Su was a little surprised. Looking back, he was honest and responsible as the shopkeeper in Anzhen, and he didn't do anything out of the ordinary. It would let people know the background of his boss!
That old lady is obviously a country person, how could she know that Chunfenglou can be her backer?
"Su Ming, remember, never underestimate anyone.
Forget it, since the other party sells one well, then you can take care of one or two at Anzhen!
As for the sugar production, I will arrange people to do it.
It's ridiculous that Liu Jianyi, his family's prescription is more important than his life, but he doesn't want to be made by an old country woman. "
Pei Yan snorted and laughed. Although he was sent to Mingzhou Mansion to avoid disaster, it was not something that any cat or dog could show off his might on him.
Last time, Liu Jianyi and his fellow clan were supposed to cause trouble in Chunfenglou, but he suppressed him severely. Knowing that he was not easy to mess with, Liu Jianyi only learned to shrink his tail to be a man now, but it was too late for Pei Yan!
Thinking of this, Pei Yan suddenly raised his eyes.
"The same family that Liu Jianyi was imprisoned before is in Anzhen?"
"Yes, thanks to Eldest Young Master's invitation, Pan Shujie, the county magistrate of Anzhen, quickly cleaned up that villain!"
Pei Yan remembered that his elder brother's post was brought to Su Ming to ask to see the county magistrate Pan, and suddenly laughed, pointing at Su Ming.
"It seems that we are all black under the lights!"
It is estimated that the old lady is so sure that Chunfenglou can be her backer because she knows that there is someone in the court of Chunfenglou.
