"Uncle, haven't you bought the things? Where else are we going?"

In the market east of Longling City, Jiu'er held a cup made of a small bamboo tube in both hands, with a straw made of a water candle in his mouth, and took a sip of iced watermelon juice. He realized that continuing forward was not the way back to his residence.

, turned to Tang Ji and asked.

Tang Ji put his hands behind his back and explained calmly: "Your lady wants to eat shortbread cookies, but she just walked around the market and couldn't find a snack shop. Let's walk around again. If it doesn't work, I have to make it for her myself.

Got it!"

"Hehe, my uncle is so kind to my lady." Jiu'er gave a thumbs up and praised.

Immediately, she turned her head and looked at the seafood in Ye Zheng's hand, raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and murmured in a low voice: "It's good for wine too!"

Ye Zheng had a bitter look on his face. He lowered his head and glanced at his hands and the many packages hanging on his shoulders and neck. If he had known better, he should not have been brave and brought more people out. After all, he is now the leader of Xiaotian Guard, and he looks like

What the hell is going on with a handyman!

The three people turned at a fork in the road, but as soon as they entered another street, they were attracted by the sound of a fierce quarrel not far away.

Jiu'er blinked and looked sideways at Tang Ji.

Tang Ji also knew that this girl liked to join in the fun, so he smiled lightly and said, "Let's go and have a look."

"Okay!" Jiu'er responded and skipped over.

A crowd gathered outside a very luxurious-looking restaurant. Some people urgently needed an explanation. Some people shouted for the store to compensate, and some people directly cursed. Even the 18th generation ancestor of the owner of the restaurant just greeted him. Watch the scene.

It was extremely confusing up there.

"Damn it, I had a meal here yesterday and then went straight to the hut all night. My legs are almost useless!"

"Last year there was news that the food at Haiyue Restaurant was not fresh. It's a shame that I helped you explain it at the time. It's really disappointing. I hope the shopkeeper can come out and give me an explanation!"

"Damn it, give me your money back!"

"If we don't give you an explanation today, we will go to the Longling County government office and don't open this shabby shop like yours!"

""

Hearing the voice coming from the front, Jiu'er imitated Tang Ji's usual way of thinking, and pretended to be experienced and touched his chin, then raised his eyes and looked at Tang Ji: "Uncle, do you think this is the restaurant business?"

Great, other people are jealous and deliberately send people to make trouble? Otherwise, if they really eat unclean food, they will have to go to the government long ago!"

Tang Ji shook his head: "Look carefully, there are people in front of you who are dressed in gorgeous clothes, and some of them are wearing rough linen clothes. What's more, some people have diarrhea. It doesn't look like they are performing."

After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed at the two figures running away holding their stomachs.

Seeing this, Jiu'er pouted. Sure enough, she still didn't observe carefully enough, but she didn't take it to heart. She raised her head and glanced at the restaurant's plaque: "After today's incident, the future business of this restaurant may not be easy."

Cock!"

.app

Tang Ji quite agrees with this point. Jiran Snack Street was also poisoned by the Yang family before. Thanks to Huang Anzhi's timely handling and stable reputation, plus his Jiranju's reputation, the danger was finally saved, but this Hainan restaurant

It's hard to say Yue Lou. After all, who dares to come to a restaurant with potential safety hazards to eat.

However, this kind of thing had nothing to do with him. After staying for a while, seeing that the restaurant owner still didn't mean to stand up and explain, he took the wine and left.

But it didn't take long for him to overturn his idea, because there were also crowds gathering in a tavern just one street away from Haiyue Tower, claiming to be hungry.

Seeing the roaring noise like a tsunami in front of me, I couldn't help but feel the chill in my back: "Uncle, there must be something dirty happening in Longling County!"

Tang Ji narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Zheng beside him: "Give the things to my subordinates, let's go over and take a look."

Although only the three of them came out openly, there were secretly several Xiaotian guards accompanying Tang Ji to protect Tang Ji. Ye Zheng didn't have any ink marks, raised his hand to make a gesture, and quickly handed the things to his men, and then went to Walk among the crowd.

This tavern is not like Haiyue Tower. The owner of this tavern stood up early and explained: "Calm down, everyone. If it is really because of the food in this tavern that you are sick, I will definitely take responsibility for it and compensate you." I hope you can give me some time so I can investigate first?"

But the people around him didn't listen to his words, and started to refute and discuss them one after another.

"What do you mean? Do you think we are slandering you?"

"That's right, what are you still investigating? I was busy all day yesterday, so I had a meal at your place before dark, but I got a stomachache when I got back!"

~app,-app..

"I felt unwell the day before yesterday. At that time, I thought I had caught the wind and cold because I didn't close the window, but I didn't expect it was actually a problem with the food."

"Stop talking nonsense, I don't have 5 taels of silver today, this matter is not over yet!"

""

Listening to everyone's words, Shopkeeper Du felt quite anxious. He couldn't understand why he had been running this small shop honestly for 56 years. How could such a problem suddenly occur? There were not only 100 people but also 80 people around him. Everyone If he pays a few taels of silver in compensation, then his work for the past year has been in vain!

At this moment, Tang Ji walked in through the crowd: "Please give way."

After finally squeezing to the front, he looked around, raised his hand and said: "Everyone calm down for a moment. Judging from the look of the shopkeeper, I probably don't know what is making you feel unwell. Why don't you give me some time to introduce it?" He has investigated clearly and found out that his store is here and there is no way he could run away in an hour and a half!"

Unexpectedly, a man standing in front of him snorted coldly: "Where did this young boy come from? Don't meddle in other people's business. You don't have food. Of course you can say such things. I have to get out of here." go!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he received a death stare from Ye Zheng and suddenly became quiet.

Tang Ji did not hesitate and took out a gold medal from his sleeve: "I will investigate this matter and give you an explanation."

In an instant, the air became quiet. Everyone couldn't believe that the young man in front of them was an official. However, pretending to be an official was a serious crime, not to mention that he was holding a gold medal in his hand. Normal people would not make such a joke.

Some people also recalled the news that a very young third-grade official came from Kyoto yesterday evening from the Longling County government office, and they immediately knelt down and saluted: "Thank you, sir!"

Seeing the crowd of people kneeling around him, Tang Ji shrugged his shoulders. He didn't want to cause such a big fight, but he was in a hurry to go out in the morning and didn't bring anything to prove his identity. He only had this piece. Before leaving, Emperor Ning sent someone to send him the gold medal. He no longer thought about it. He put the gold medal back into his sleeve and looked at Shopkeeper Du who was kneeling on the ground: "Shopkeeper, please take me in and have a look!"

"Yes, yes, sir, please come in." Shopkeeper Du saw that this matter was getting louder and louder. He wanted to report it to the official, but he didn't expect that the other party came to the door first. He didn't dare to accept it, so he quickly welcomed Tang Ji in.

The space of this bistro is not very large, but there are a lot of tables, chairs and stools, all of which are polished and shiny. It is very clean and the environment seems to be passable.

"Shopkeeper, please take me to the kitchen to have a look?" Tang Ji asked.

"Okay!" Shopkeeper Du quickly led Tang Ji towards the stairs. There was a spacious passage in the innermost part of the stairs connected to the kitchen. Because of the unclean food, the cooks did not work today. Inside

It still looks the same as it was after I packed it up last night.

After Tang Ji stepped into the kitchen, he was a little surprised by the internal environment. He thought that the back kitchen of this kind of tavern might not be satisfactory, but it was as clean as the front hall, with a large table in the middle and various items placed on it.

There are kitchen utensils, there is a stove inside, and there is a large cabinet on the side, which contains various ingredients and raw materials packed in bamboo baskets. He walked straight over and briefly took a look at the vegetables in the basket, and found that they were quite fresh.

He turned to look at Shopkeeper Du: "Shopkeeper, when were these dishes delivered?"

"Lord Qi, the ones on your left hand side were delivered early this morning, and the ones on your right hand side were leftover from yesterday. There are also those decided to keep after screening in the past two days. They are all clean. I also brought them yesterday.

I went back to cook a few of them and there was no problem eating them!" Shopkeeper Du explained quickly.

In ancient times, food was more precious than in later generations, and the ingredients could be used for a few more days. Tang Ji didn't think much about it. He walked around the kitchen and then asked the most curious question in his heart: "The earliest received

When did the guests report that they felt unwell after eating?”

Shopkeeper Du thought for a while and then said: "The day before yesterday!"

app,&~p.

"So what changes have been made in the kitchen in the past three days? For example, a new supplier of ingredients, changes in personnel scheduling, water sources, condiments, etc.?" Tang Ji asked with a frown.

"No, my shop doesn't do much business. The meat is only related to Zhu Laosan's shop. As for the vegetables, they all go to the market to collect them. The cook is also the same person. As for water, there is a well in the backyard." Du

The shopkeeper quickly replied.

Tang Ji didn't hear the answer he wanted, and added in a deep voice: "You want to be more careful before you speak!"

This sentence immediately made Shopkeeper Du's heart tremble. He wiped the sweat from his forehead nervously. After calming down and thinking for a while, he shook his head: "Indeed not."

Halfway through the words, his eyes suddenly widened: "Yes, salt!"

"Because the government suddenly relaxed the requirements last month and changed the amount of salt stored in each restaurant from one month to three months, the villain brought more salt to the salt store. The last batch of salt was used up three days ago. This time

Just replaced a new batch." Shopkeeper Du exhaled after explaining, but suddenly thought of something. The salt bank has always been controlled by the government. If there is something wrong with the salt flowing out of it, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the court?

, thinking of this, he quickly shook his head: "No, no, the villain must have remembered it wrong!"

Tang Ji was too lazy to say anything: "Show me the salt."

"This" Shopkeeper Du froze on the spot. If something went wrong, he wouldn't be silenced, right?

"Ah, just go if you are told!" Jiu'er added.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Du had no choice but to accept his fate, quickly walked inside, and took out all the small basket of salt that was locked in a cabinet in the corner.

After he put it on the table, Tang Ji looked down and then stretched out his hand to touch it.

As he expected, it turned out to be coarse salt!

"How courageous!"
