Chapter 41 The Initiator

As for how the recipes of Tianxiangju fell into the hands of the people in Yingbin Building, this is exactly what Mu Qiu wants to investigate, and if he understands this matter, he will naturally find out who is behind the scenes.The crux of the problem lies in the people in Tianxiangju.

The first ones to be suspected are of course the back kitchens who have direct contact with the dishes, but these people have been with shopkeeper Wu for more than ten years. After the new dishes were developed, they also signed an agreement with shopkeeper Wu. Mu Qiu felt that they were unlikely. .The rest of the guys in the store are even more impossible, they have no chance to touch the recipes at all.Mu Qiu had a headache thinking about it, but no one seemed to be suspicious.

"Why don't you think about that shopkeeper Liu?" Xuanying's words awakened the dreamer.

Mu Qiu suddenly realized that the most suspicious thing in the entire Tianxiangju should be the new shopkeeper. After all, nothing happened before, so why did something happen right after he came?

However, it is not enough to just lock the suspect. The so-called catching a thief and catching the stolen goods must have ample evidence.How to find evidence?Of course it depends on Xuan Ying, who is highly skilled in martial arts.

Mu Qiu returned to Tianxiangju, stabilized everyone's emotions, only said that he would find a way to solve this matter, and then left.But although she left, Xuan Ying did not leave.

Mu Qiu didn't show up for the next few days, but Xuan Ying secretly watched Shopkeeper Liu's every move in the dark, and he really found out.

"He has been silent for the past two days, until last night, when he secretly left Tianxiangju and went to Sun's house." Mu Qiu who heard Xuan Ying's words also knew that the owner behind Yingbin Building was the master of Sun's family.

"He entered through the back door, and stayed in the study with Sun Deyi for about an hour. I think there must be something tricky between the two of them."

"It seems that shopkeeper Liu really did it." Mu Qiu snorted coldly, she really hated this kind of villain's behavior.Now that the real culprit is known, it is natural to lure the snake out of its hole.

The next day, Mu Qiu pretended not to know, came to Tianxiangju, handed some new recipes to the chef, and encouraged everyone to try the new dishes first, and try to find a way to win back the guests.Everyone was moved and acted on their own.

As soon as Mu Qiu left, shopkeeper Liu immediately went to the back kitchen to find out new recipes.And he thought that what he did was perfect, but he didn't know that all of this fell into Xuanying's eyes.

The new dish was made, and everyone tasted it and thought it was good. It seemed that the business of Tianxiangju had rekindled hope.Shopkeeper Liu secretly and carefully carried out plagiarizing recipes and sending them to Sun's house.As soon as the messenger turned the corner, Xuan Ying mixed into the crowd, and the moment the two passed by, the original recipe had already been replaced.

Mu Qiu's plan is also progressing smoothly.Sure enough, the next day Yingbinlou launched several new dishes, Da Zhuang told Mu Qiu about it, but she said with a mysterious smile: "That's good, I'm afraid he won't come up with new dishes."

Mu Qiu brewed a pot of tea and sat in Tianxiang Residence and drank it leisurely.Soon it was the peak dining time, but there was still no one coming to Tianxiangju, and the Yingbin Building was still bustling.

But the excitement didn't last long, and after a while, there was a loud noise outside.

"Brother Zhuang, did you go out and see what happened?"

Da Zhuang ran out quickly, and came back after a while, and said with joy on his face: "Girl, something happened in the Yingbin Building!"

When everyone heard this, they all ran out to watch the excitement, and sure enough, many people had gathered outside the Yingbin Building.Xuan Ying protected Mu Qiu and squeezed into the crowd, just as she saw the door of the Yingbin Building was open, and there were mourners inside.

"Ouch... my stomach, my stomach hurts..."

"Ouch...it hurts to death..."

Soon someone invited the doctor, but Mu Qiu was not worried about what they found.Sure enough, after the doctor's examination, the final result was food poisoning.

Mu Qiu was very satisfied with the answers he heard, and called everyone back to Tianxiangju.With the external problems solved, it is time to solve the internal problems.
