Chapter 266 The restaurant ate people to death
"Okay, boss."
Shopkeeper Fang vaguely guessed Tao Xi's thoughts, and he was very excited. If possible, he would be the one to open up the territory.
Just thinking about this hot pot shop made him a little reluctant to leave.
The two of them were discussing business in the private room, but there was a commotion below. The shopkeeper frowned and stood up.
"Master, I'll go down and see what's going on."
"Well, okay."
Tao Xi took a sip of tea, and Qing Zhi stood behind her, gently squeezing Tao Xi's shoulders.
"Master, if I rely on you alone to spread out the branches, I'm afraid it will be a bit slow."
after all……
If the Qiu family and the Jiang family were smarter, they would still be able to make a lot of money if they didn't go where Tao Xi went and found another place where Tao Xi didn't have time to open.
How could Tao Xi not know? She pressed her eyebrows and asked Qing Zhi warmly:
"Qing Zhi, do you have any good suggestions?"
Qingzhi grew up in Kyoto and should be able to give some advice.
Sure enough, Qing Zhi whispered: "If Dongjia can find another strong partner, the Qiu family and Jiang family will not be able to do anything to Dongjia."
The most important thing is that the boss is still an ordinary civilian, looking not only for a partnership, but also for asylum.
"I see."
It's not that Tao Xi hasn't thought about it, but she's just been busy lately. When Qing Zhi reminded her, she subconsciously thought of Gu Guanshi.
"Let's go down."
She couldn't wait to chat with Gu Guanshi.
As soon as the two of them came downstairs, they saw a mess downstairs, and a middle-aged woman was crying miserably.
"Ms., sir, your life is miserable. You tried so hard to have a good meal, but in the end, you lost your life.
This is a shady shop, please don’t eat here again, this food will kill you!"
"Don't talk nonsense, the things in our shop are clean, how can we eat dead people!"
The shopkeeper was almost furious with this woman, but she was a woman, otherwise he would have kicked her out directly!
The woman was slapping her thighs and crying. There was a corpse in front of her. The corpse was already turning blue. It was indeed poisoned to death.
Some people are suspicious, "Oh my god, is there really something wrong with the stuff in this shop?"
"Nonsense, how come other people are fine after eating it, but he died so seriously after eating it?"
"How do I know? If it's really the fault of this restaurant, I won't dare to come here again."
"But the hot pot is really delicious."
"I heard that Hongyun Building is also opening a hotpot restaurant. Let's go there to eat later."
"..."
Seeing the people sent by Master Qiu poaching in an open and honest manner, the shopkeeper was furious to death.
If there is anything unclear about this matter, it is clearly a trap set by Master Qiu.
He said with a green face: "I have reported it to the official. How did your husband-in-law die? I think the people from the Yamen will definitely find out."
Xiwang Hotpot must not bear such a big blame, otherwise who would dare to eat at their restaurant in the future?
Hearing this, a flash of panic flashed across the woman's eyes, and she quickly cheered up. No, it's impossible.
Master Qiu said he would get it done, so she just had to do her best!
Thinking of the money she could get, the woman continued to make trouble unreasonably, "Even if the official comes, it will be your restaurant's fault.
If I hadn't come to your shop to eat, my husband-in-law would still be fine now. You should accompany my husband-in-law, oh oh oh..."
"I'm weird."
Tao Xi walked out calmly, with a cold voice, "You said your husband-in-law died, why didn't you shed a single tear?"
When Tao Xi reminded her, everyone suddenly realized that the woman was crying desperately, but she didn't even shed a single tear.
"Tai, you don't look sad at all."
"Why do I see that she has rouge on her face and even though all men are dead, she still has the mood to make herself beautiful?"
"Has she already found a new home?"
"..."
Being so suspected by everyone, the woman was so angry that she shed tears, but it was not because she was sad that the man died, but because she was sad because of being accused like this.
"I didn't. My husband died because he ate something in their shop!"
"is that so?"
Tao Xi snorted, "Then let me ask you, when did your husband-in-law come to our shop for food?
Was it eaten by one person or several people, and when did they die from the poison?"
"It was about late noon. My husband and I ate it together. After we returned home, he was poisoned and died."
The woman pursed her lips. Thinking of the aroma of hot pot, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Don't tell me, the taste was really good.
After saying that, she seemed to have recalled it and said: "I should have died before the time came."
"Then I'm curious. You and your husband-in-law came to eat together. Why did he die but you didn't?"
Tao Xi twitched her mouth speechlessly, expressing deep sympathy for Master Qiu's intelligence. Was he afraid that she wouldn't be able to see through such a clumsy frame-up?
The woman was stunned and then explained: "No, I didn't eat it. This hot pot is too spicy. I can't eat spicy food. I just came with my husband."
She covered her eyes and felt a little annoyed. Master Qiu really just asked her to accompany her husband to eat, but she couldn't hold it back and started eating too.
At this time, a waiter at Xiwang Hotpot pointed at her and said, "You lied, I obviously saw you eating it too."
Moreover, you ate more than your husband-in-law, and you even added another dish in the middle of the meal."
This guy had a good memory. Tao Xi glanced at him approvingly, and the guy continued as if he was being encouraged:
"It's your husband who can't eat spicy food, but he accommodates your taste, so he doesn't eat much."
Woman:!!!!
Damn it, she didn’t expect a guy to have such a good memory, she said with a blue face, “You’re the one who lied!
There are so many people in the shop, why do you remember me? You are obviously just speaking for your boss."
Yes, that's it, that guy must have done it on purpose.
"Ha~"
Tao Xi rubbed her fingertips lightly, then suddenly stepped forward and slapped the woman on the face in front of everyone.
When the woman was confused, Tao Xi slapped her several times in a row without stopping.
"You don't need to wait for the government to come. I know that it was you who killed your husband-in-law, and instead slandered us and gave us a restaurant. Your heart is to be punished!"
Some fine powder floated directly to the tip of the woman's nose. This was the truth powder that the system had just yelled into her consciousness.
This thing sounded interesting. It only cost 30 points. Tao Xi was curious and bought it to try.
The woman collapsed and covered her face. Her legs were numb because she had been sitting on the ground for too long, so she did not fight back in time against Tao Xi.
But she did not forget to cry and accuse Tao Xi, "Look, the owner of Xi Wang Hotpot is so unreasonable and actually beats people!!!"
The melon-eaters looked at Tao Xi in confusion, with expressions of surprise on their faces, "What, she is the boss?"
"Is there such a young master?"
"But it is indeed wrong to hit someone. If there is any misunderstanding, you can reason with it."
"..."
