Learn a small skill every day and embark on a crazy life

Chapter 30 Qingluan is guilty
"No, no, it's really a great honor for Shen Qiu's Fanlou to have you two here."

Shen Qiu said hurriedly, but he was wondering in his heart, who are these two people? Why did they suddenly come to visit him when he is not famous?

"Boss Shen, my wife and I plan to stay in Fanlou for a while. Please take care of us, Boss Shen."

At this time, Chen Jianyu spoke straight to the point.

"Okay, okay. It's my honor that you two look up to our Fanlou. All expenses will be waived."

Shen Qiu patted his chest and assured that Fanlou was not short of the money anyway, so it would be no problem to have two more people living there. Moreover, it was obvious that Chen Jianyu was not an ordinary person, and he must have something extraordinary to be brought up by Qingluan.

"Thank you, Boss Shen."

Chen Jianyu bowed and thanked him, but did not refuse.

"It's a small matter. You two don't have to be polite. Come, come, please take a seat and try our Fanlou's signature dishes."

Shen Qiu asked the two to sit down, and then instructed Qingluan to ask the maid to serve other tea and snacks.

……

at the same time.

The largest restaurant in Tianhuang City, Zuixianlou.

The boss of Zuixianlou, named Zhao Dezhu (covered), was a fat man with a fat head and big ears and a greasy face. At this moment, he was sitting behind the counter, drinking tea and listening to the reports from his subordinates.

"Boss, that idiot named Shangguan Lie has been caught by the people from Fanlou."

A skinny man, nodding and bowing, stood in front of Zhao Dezhu and spoke in a low voice.

"Waste, what a waste!"

Zhao Dezhu heard this and slammed the table, shouting, "You can't even handle such a small matter, and you still say you are a descendant of the Shangguan family. You are not reliable at all and are of no use at all."

The skinny man quickly said, "Boss, calm down. Fanlou has been very popular recently. I heard that there are some big shots backing it up. It is not surprising that Shangguan Lie failed."

"Humph, I don't care who's behind him. If he dares to steal my business, I'll make him pay the price."

Zhao Dezhu said angrily, "If you spread the word again, I will say that all the things in Fanlou are fake. Anyone who dares to spend money in Fanlou will be against me, Zhao Dezhu."

"Also, contact the owners of several other restaurants..."

"Yes, boss!"

The skinny man nodded to show that he understood.

"Well, go ahead and do it. I'm at ease when you do the work."

Zhao Dezhu waved his greasy fat hand as if he was driving away an annoying fly.

The skinny man nodded and bowed, with a flattering smile on his face, then turned and left.

Just as he reached the door of the restaurant, he rubbed his eyes, wondering if he had seen it wrong.

Because the entrance of Zuixian Tower had been surrounded by a group of city guards wearing silver armor.

In the crowd, a middle-aged man wearing a black robe and with a stern face stood with his hands behind his back. He was Su Yue, the lord of Tianhuang City.

He was followed by a group of personal guards, all of whom had a calm aura and were obviously experts.

"Why is the city lord here? Could it be..."

Thinking of this, the skinny man suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, his legs went limp, and he almost collapsed to the ground. He had only one thought in his mind: It's over, judging from the city lord's attitude, he's not here for good!

Su Yue ignored the crowd of onlookers around him and walked directly into Zuixian Tower with his personal guards.

After a while, Zhao Dezhu saw this and could only bite the bullet and go forward with a hypocritical smile on his face, "Hey, isn't this City Lord Su? What brings you here? Please come in quickly. We just received a batch of good wine today, and we would like to invite you to taste it!"

However, Su Yue just glanced at him coldly, ignoring his politeness, and went straight to the point and said, "Zhao Dezhu, you are so courageous. You dare to spread rumors, slander Fanlou, and send people to cause trouble. Do you know your crime?"

The smile on Zhao Dezhu's face froze, and his heart skipped a beat. He secretly thought that something was wrong, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "City Lord Su, what do you mean by this? Why don't I understand?"

"Huh, you don't understand, right? Come here, arrest him and all the people in charge of Zuixianlou."

At Su Yue's command, the guards behind him immediately rushed forward like wolves and tigers and captured Zhao Dezhu and others.

"City Lord Su, what are you doing?"

Zhao Dezhu struggled and shouted, "I am a law-abiding businessman. You are framing me. I will go to the county governor to sue you."

Su Yue sneered and said, "Framed? Do you think I don't know what you did? Come on, present the evidence."

A guard stepped forward and handed a stack of papers to Su Yue.

Su Yue took the paper, looked at Zhao Dezhu coldly, and said: "Take a look for yourself. These are all the evidences of you using the name of Zuixianlou to bully the market and rob people in recent years. There is also evidence of your secret contact with the black market and selling banned medicinal materials. In addition, you colluded with several other restaurants to suppress Fanlou recently. These things are too numerous to list!"

Hearing this, Zhao Dezhu's face turned pale. He knew that he was finished, completely finished.

He collapsed to the ground helplessly, his eyes full of despair.

At this time, the skinny man was also captured by two city guards. He turned to Zhao Dezhu and cried, "Boss, didn't you say before that you have connections to protect him? If you do, just tell me now!"

Hearing this, Zhao Dezhu looked depressed and said with a sad face: "My name is Zhao Dezhu, but I can't protect you now!"

Su Yue ignored them and turned to the crowd watching, saying in a deep voice: "Everyone, today I, Su Yue, as the Lord of Tianhuang City, announce that Zuixian Tower will be sealed and all property will be confiscated. Zhao Dezhu and others are guilty of heinous crimes and will be detained immediately and await their fate!"

As soon as the words fell, thunderous applause broke out from the crowd, and the people cheered.

Su Yue has a very high reputation in the city, and his swift and decisive actions won the admiration of everyone present.

……

Outside the city, there is a building.

"Dear guest, the room is ready, please follow me."

The maid in a light pink dress respectfully led Chen Jianyu and his wife to the luxurious guest room on the twelfth floor of Fan Building.

Chen Jianyu was very satisfied with this conversation. Although Shen Qiu had no cultivation, he was gentle and sincere to others. He did not give him the feeling of a profit-oriented profiteer, but rather a young man with good conversation and an open mind.

That's right. Shen Qiu is not a serious businessman. He just wants to lie down and take care of most of the things.

Moreover, Shen Qiu has received nine years of compulsory education and has suffered from the "beatings" of society. He still knows how to behave and will not offend others with just one word.

Shen Qiu smiled slightly as he watched Chen Jianyu and his wife and the maid leave.

"My Lord, Qingluan is guilty..."

At this moment, Qingluan knelt down with a plop, her tone full of self-blame.

　Please collect and vote. Thank you all my readers. I'm just trying to make a living.
