Chapter 223 Collusion
Manager Zhu's cold sweat suddenly came down.
He knew that such a wealthy family was not easy to interfere in, but he still couldn't help but tempt his property and stepped in. He originally thought that nothing would happen, but now it seems that he can't be lucky. He has suffered retribution!
He couldn't help but cry immediately. Seeing Luhu almost knelt down and begging for mercy, he begged, "Miss Sun, I am an honest and honest businessman. I never dare to lose money on you in business with you. How can you watch me fall into such a terrible situation like this? You can do it, be proud and let me go! I swear, I won't reveal your affairs. If you are worried, I will close the store and leave the capital forever?"
Luhu didn't say anything, and listened to him finishing his words with a smile, drinking tea leisurely. He put down the teacup until he finished the last word and said with a smile: "Why is Manager Zhu? Since you are doing business with me, you should have prepared for such a result from the beginning, so why should you come and cry for justice now? Besides, what should I do if you open this store in this capital. If you close the store and leave, what should I do? Tell you the truth, I am just a maid serving people. My master has someone else. It's useless to ask me for mercy. Since my master said he wanted to use you, you should be obedient."
Manager Zhu had long guessed that the person who would show up in public to do business with him would not be the ladies and ladies in the deep mansion, so he was not surprised to hear Green Lake's self-destruction of his identity. But now one sentence blocked his retreat, and he was completely unable to escape. When he thought of the consequences that he might have after being involved in the grudges of wealthy families, he couldn't help but feel chills all over and couldn't even stand.
Luhu looked at his expression carefully, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Shopkeeper Zhu, sit down and talk. This is actually not difficult, and you don't have to worry so much. Our master said that as long as you do what you ordered, you will not only be worried about your life, but also make your business a step further!"
Manager Zhu no longer dared to be greedy anymore, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. Between making money and life, he valued the latter more, no matter how good the other party offered, it was only for the conditions of victory. Otherwise, no matter how good the other party said, it would be nothing more than a mirror and would be of no use.
And how tragic the struggles among wealthy families are! Although he has not experienced them personally, he has heard of them a lot. Who said that there are not many other people in the capital, but there are many people with wealth and power? He has no confidence in getting involved and can escape unscathed. Now he is just thinking that it is good to be able to save his life!
The time in Green Lake is limited, and I don’t have time to enlighten him in detail, so after he sat down, he said bluntly: “I’m here today to tell you my origin. I haven’t told you about my origin before. That was because our master didn’t let him say it, but now it’s OK. Our master asked me to tell you that we are from General Yongwei’s mansion, and my master is General Yongwei’s aunt.”
Manager Zhu was stunned for a moment. He was even more shocked and his face was pale and sweating.
As a person in the capital, how could he not know General Yongwei? Not to mention that the male masters in this sect have made great achievements and are admired by all the people in the world. Just talking about General Yongwei of this generation is a celebrity in front of the emperor and the emperor's absolute confidant. Such an identity is more noble than some of the royal relatives who are almost the same. He thought he had overestimated the background of the person in front of him, but he did not expect that he would underestimate her in the end!
Then he immediately thought of the gossip about General Yongwei's mansion that he had heard these days, including the poisoning of the aunt and grandma in the mansion. He used to listen to this as a story, but now he realized that the poison that caused the aunt and grandma to be poisoned was sold from his own hands!
This is a life! After all, he is an ordinary person with no power. Although he vaguely noticed that this woman did not have any good intentions when she bought poison, she convinced herself that she was out of sight and was not upset. Her world was too far away from him, and he couldn't see what happened in the deep mansion. Why bother meddling in other people's business and sentimentality?
Therefore, he always pretended to be crazy and did not dare to admit that the poison he sold was likely to kill people.
But this time it didn't work, and he could no longer find an opportunity to shirk responsibility. The poisoning incident of the general's aunt and grandmother in the general's mansion happened by his hands. No matter what, he could not get rid of it!
His cold sweat dripped down, his whole body was shaking, and he couldn't say a word.
Green Lake looked at him disdainfully, only to think that this man was too useless. Such a little thing scared him like this. Can this person really take on the task assigned by his aunt? She couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
However, she didn't dare to take the initiative at this moment. Regardless of whether this person could complete the things the master told him, as long as the master did not say stop, she would still do what she should do. As for the rest, don't worry about what she shouldn't be concerned about, and don't ask what she shouldn't be asked, so as not to cause trouble.
So she continued, "I guess you know now that the poison came from you when the aunt and grandma in the mansion were poisoned. If someone discovered it, I don't need to say more about what kind of consequences you would end up with?"
Manager Zhu almost collapsed when he heard this - what does "if someone knows it?" The woman's tone clearly decided to expose the matter! The fight between the women in the back house was to involve themselves, which was really a disaster. Poor, a small civilian shopkeeper, who wants to have no power and money, how can he break this situation and save his life?
"Sun...Miss Sun, what you bought is poison, and it is also medicine. The poison comes from nowhere. It depends on how to use it. I am not a god. How can I know that you are using it for that purpose? I am really wronged. This matter really doesn't matter to me!"
Green Lake looked at him with a funny look, but he didn't expect that he would be in desperate situation at this moment. He became clearer and then said with a smile: "Very good. Since you know this, then when someone comes to ask about it later, you should know what to say, right?"
Manager Zhu was stunned. He didn't expect to get such a response. He seemed to think of something in an instant, but then he flashed over again. When he turned around, he could no longer think of it.
Luhu looked at his dazed look and couldn't help but become more funny. After clearing his throat, he continued, "In addition, you have to remember that you have never seen me before. The person who came to buy medicine is another. Someone will send her portrait to you later. Look at her well, remember, don't say it wrong then! Someone will come to you to criticize me indirectly. You can tell them the truth, but you can't let people know my appearance and identity. You are a store and do business. You know the principles of being versatile. What should you say, what should you not say, and what should you say, and what should you say, and you should have a count in your heart. I won't talk too much."
Manager Zhu agreed timidly. Now that he wanted to stay out of the matter, he simply stopped thinking about it. Green Lake asked him to do whatever he wanted. For his own safety and plan, they could not kill people so quickly to silence them.
After Green Lake finished explaining the matter, it didn't take long to turn around and left. Manager Zhu sat in the room, looking unconscious. It took him a long time to wake up by the call of the waiter.
"Shopkeeper, someone outside wants to see you." The waiter said, feeling a little strange.
The guests who came today were very surprised. If you don’t buy anything, you have to see the shopkeeper.
Manager Zhu was shocked and suddenly remembered the warning that Luhu had just warned him, so he quickly said, "Hurry, please come in!"
The waiter responded and went out. After a while, a man who looked like a housekeeper followed him. He looked very smart and looked very smart.
Manager Zhu hurriedly filled with smiles on his face, and went forward, saying with a smile: "The visitor is here, and I will be welcomed by mistake. I will forgive my guilt,"
The man didn't say anything, but looked at him with a look of scrutiny. After seeing him inexplicably, he felt a little guilty, and then he slowly said: "Shopkeeper Zhu, can you speak with one step?"
How dare Manager Zhu refuse? He hurriedly asked the waiter to retreat, close the door, and then smiled and said, "I don't know what instructions do you have when you are here?" The shop is simple and there are not too many rooms, but it is absolutely secret here. If you have anything to say to a distinguished guest, don't worry too much."
The man seemed to know the store and the shopkeeper Zhu very much. He didn't say much after hearing this, and said directly: "Miss Sun came just now, and I must have told you too. But how to say this confession to the outside world must be unified. I came here to unify the same answer with you. This is a complete set of rhetoric. Let's take a look first. If you don't understand anything, just put it forward."
Manager Zhu couldn't help but be shocked, and intuition wanted to refuse, "This is what you are?" Miss Sun didn't mention such a thing just now!"
Could it be that I was deliberately trying to deceive him?
The man curled his lips and said with some disdain: "Don't worry, our aunt and Miss Sun's master are on the same boat. She knows that you are timid and afraid of things, and do not know the details of the general's mansion. If you are afraid of something, you will make mistakes. So I asked me to come and have a trip. You can take a look at what you want you to say, but it is exactly the same as what Miss Sun said just now? If you are ready, just recite it quickly, and the people there will be coming soon!"
