Chapter 227 The big fish hasn’t taken the bait yet (second update)

More and more people gathered in front of the stall set up by Li Xianyun, causing quite a stir. Even the officials in charge of the mutual market came to watch the fun.

Li Xianyun looked at Liang Guo's shop not far away seemingly casually. Someone was looking here from the window on the second floor.

There was only a crack in the window, so it was not clear who the person was.

The stall's business was booming, and the apricot and peach preserves were quickly sold out.

When she came to Tianshui County, Li Xianyun was fully prepared. She brought a lot of candied fruits, which were sealed in large porcelain jars and stored in the mansion.

After selling the things, Li Xianyun took Youlan and Zhuoma to wander around the market and bought a lot of fresh things.

She planned to take it back to Shangjing and give it to Yaduo.

The group of people arrived at the checkpoint and were about to leave. They needed to carry out inspections as usual. It happened that Mustache and the official in charge of the mutual market were also there.

Li Xianyun said seemingly unintentionally, "The mutual market here is really well established. Mr. Ma's hard work has not been in vain, but the cost of setting up stalls is too expensive. The small stalls in the east actually cost five taels of silver in rent. Not everyone Affordable.”

When the mustache heard that something bad was going to happen, he hurriedly came over and said to the inspecting soldiers: "Have you finished the inspection? If there are no problems, let them leave quickly."

The official in charge heard the commotion here and came over, "Wait a minute."

The mustache had no choice but to step aside and say nothing, but he warned Li Xianyun with his eyes, as if to say: "Little pretty face, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will make you walk around without food."

Li Xianyun looked at the mustache and smiled, "Is this official's eyes uncomfortable? It's really weird to have his eyes wide open like this."

The responsible official has been in the officialdom for many years and is used to observing words and emotions. How could he not hear the overtones of these words?

He turned to look at Mustache coldly.

The mustache lowered his head and dared not speak any more.

The official in charge smiled apologetically, "Sir, do you know Mr. Ma?"

"Have seen a few times."

Ma Zhaoming and Ye Luyan have a close relationship, and they can be considered to have a little relationship.

Li Xianyun spoke very naturally, making the other party very convinced.

The official in charge quickly said: "Disrespectful."

He paused, "You just said that you paid five taels of silver in rent for the stall on the east side?"

Li Xianyun had an innocent look on her face and nodded, "This official asked me for it, and I have already given him five taels of silver."

The official in charge turned his head and looked at Mustache coldly, and said quietly: "Bring me ten taels of silver."

The mustache was stunned for a moment, "I only took five taels of silver."

The official frowned, and his mustache immediately showed a very frightened look. He obediently took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the official in charge.

The official handed the ten taels of silver to Li Xianyun and said with a smile, "Sir, it's because of my lax governance that this corruption and dereliction of duty occurred. Don't worry, I will punish him severely."

Li Xianyun handed the ten taels of silver to Youlan for safekeeping, "Everything is entirely up to you."

The official in charge and Mustache personally sent Li Xianyun and her party to the carriage.

Watching the carriage go further and further away, Mustache said: "Brother-in-law, why are you so polite to her?"

The official said angrily: "I told you to restrain yourself a long time ago, but you just didn't listen. The current situation is serious, and it is no longer what it used to be. Master Ma is personally rectifying the mutual market. That is a master from Beijing. If Master Ma knows about it, I can’t even protect you from your corruption and dereliction of duty.”

"I understand, brother-in-law." Mustache said with emotion, "It's better than before. The market is in a hands-off zone. We can do whatever we want."

The official snorted coldly, "You can do whatever you want. It has nothing to do with me."

"Yes Yes."

The mustache slandered: What a coward, so timid, I really don’t know how to get promoted.

Sitting on the carriage returning, Zhuoma and Youlan looked at the heavy twelve taels of silver.

Youlan smiled and said: "Master, not only did we not pay, but we also made five taels of silver."

"Just now I saw the mustache's expression of eating a fly. It was so funny." Zhuoma laughed.Li Xianyun just pursed her lips and smiled, not too happy.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Zhuoma asked.

The corners of Li Xianyun's mouth curved up, "The two of them sing and cooperate very well, but they still have a good relationship. If I guessed correctly, they should be relatives. In the future, we must pay attention to these two people in the mutual market to prevent them. Waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.”

Zhuoma and Youlan said seriously: "Yes!"

Youlan thought of something, "Master, do you want to come to set up a stall tomorrow?"

"Naturally, the big fish hasn't taken the bait yet."

"Big fish?" Youlan and Zhuoma said almost at the same time.

Dolma said: "You mean the dim sum shop facing our stall?"

The shop was very luxurious, and it was one of the few two-story buildings.

Li Xianyun nodded.

Dolma also has an outgoing personality and likes to get to the bottom of things.

"Master, what if the big fish doesn't take the bait? Do you need us to send over the candied fruits for trial?"

"No," Li Xianyun said very simply, "If you rush to beg others, others will definitely not take it seriously, and you can even lower the price."

She paused for a moment, "We have to let them see that the candied fruits are sold in very short supply these days, so that the shop owner across the street can't help but come over to check. They must keep their spirits up and try not to make mistakes these days."

"Yes."

An hour later, the carriage returned to Tianshui County. Walking on the broad street, Li Xianyun looked outside boredly.

At this moment, Li Xianyun's eyes were attracted by a fortune teller who was telling a woman's fortune.

The woman was holding a one-month-old baby in her arms.

The baby's face was sallow and she was sleeping in her mother's arms.

There were not many people on the street, so Li Xianyun could hear their conversation clearly.

"Your child's illness is easy to cure. I just need to go to your home to perform rituals, drive away evil spirits, burn the talismans and mix them in water for the child to drink, and the illness will be cured."

The words spoken by the diviner went straight into Li Xianyun's ears.

According to the diviner's method, the child is either sick or sick.

Li Xianyun stopped the carriage, got out of the carriage, went straight to the fortune teller, and said to the poor mother: "He has jaundice. Every newborn has it, so don't worry too much." .”

The diviner became anxious and stood up, "Who are you?! Stop meddling in your own business here and get lost!"

Barter stepped forward and held the diviner's finger, and when he exerted force, he heard the bones rattle.

The fortune teller was in pain and his face was contorted, "Strong man, if you have something to say, say it well. If you have something to say, say it well. I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."

Battle said coldly: "If you disrespect my young master again, be careful and I will be rude to you."

"Yes, yes!" The diviner was confused.

Only then did Battle let go of his hand.

Youlan took the fortune teller's chair over, placed it next to the mother, and patted the loose soil on it.

His movements were full of disgust for the diviner.

Li Xianyun sat down and looked at the haggard mother, "Can I take his pulse?"

The poor mother nodded.

If she didn't have money for medical treatment, she wouldn't choose to seek help from a diviner.
