Chapter 503 The male protagonist's cannon fodder cousin (26)
Xu Yin was slightly startled.
She had thought that these people might be bandits who fled here. When they saw people living on the top of the mountain, they came up to steal them. If they couldn't steal, they would rob them.
I also thought about whether I came to seek revenge but found the wrong person?
But I never thought it was for the perfume formula in her hand.
After thinking for a while, he said slowly: "This is a relic left by my parents to me. I'm sorry that I can't agree to it."
"Then don't blame us six brothers for being violent!"
The leading man in black kicked up a long knife that the injured nurse had dropped on the ground, and approached Xu Yin step by step.
"Girl, back off!" Wang Huyuan held a long knife in front of Xu Yin and signaled her to go back to the house.
Xu Yin said nothing, clenching the mangrove stick in her hand, and was about to strike first, when suddenly something flashed in front of her eyes.
"ah--"
The man in black gave a short cry and fell to the ground.
The other thieves didn't even say a word, and fell to the ground one after another.
Xu Yin and Wang Huyuan looked at each other in surprise, then looked around warily.
But except for the occasional chirping of cicadas and frogs from the bottom of the mountain, the surroundings were so quiet as if everything just now was just an illusion.
"Boss, it was a stone that hit the sleeping point."
"It's such a small stone?"
Wang Huyuan examined the stones picked up from the ground by his men.
Six pebbles, about the size of the little finger, are no different from ordinary pebbles, but they can hit the sleeping holes of six men in black one after another without them even realizing it.
This strength and accuracy made him feel unparalleled.
In your opinion, only the top masters in the world have this kind of strength, right?
Fortunately they are not enemies!
Otherwise, people like you might not even have a chance to call for help, right?
"Thank you knight for helping me!"
Wang Huyuan cupped his hands and thanked him loudly, facing the empty sky. However, except for the rustling of leaves in the wind, there was no movement.
Xu Yin was also wondering: Who saved her?
When those men in black mentioned the perfume formula, she guessed who sent them: most of them were colleagues with a competitive relationship.
"Girl, what do you do with these guys?"
After Wang Huyuan settled the injured men and tied up the six unconscious men in black, he came over to ask for her opinion.
"Send it to the Yamen tomorrow and accuse them of robbing the Xu family's spice formula. They failed to plunder it, and they tried to kill people."
"yes!"
The next day, there were bursts of "mighty sounds" at the Mingshan County government office.
The people nearby heard that six gangsters were trying to steal the Xu family's spice formula, so they gathered around the Yamen Gate to watch curiously.
The six men in black fell asleep until the gavel cracked and they woke up.
When I saw that I was in the hall, I was dumbfounded.
Could it be that he came to the Yamen while sleepwalking and surrendered?
It wasn't until I heard the master read out the charges that I suddenly woke up:
That's right! Didn't they ask the daughter of the Xu family for the secret recipe of perfume in Chashan Villa? Why are they here?
And why did they rob the Xu family’s spice formula? Someone clearly hired them to do it.
The Xu family's sacrificial field is in Mingshan County. Ever since Mr. Xu's generation, he has often donated money and property to Mingshan County. Anyone who comes to Mingshan County to serve as a county magistrate has simply been doing nothing in the past two years.
Therefore, disturbing the Xu family is tantamount to disturbing the benefactors of Mingshan County. Can the county magistrate not pay attention to it?
The six brothers were interrogated separately, and there was no way to change their confessions, so the six brothers gave various confessions.
The boss said that they were walking up the mountain and accidentally fell into the Xu family courtyard. It was all a misunderstanding;
The second child said that the Xu family's nursing home invited them to have a drink, and they got into a fight over a disagreement while drinking...
After going through all the trials, no one told the truth.
It was Lao Liu's turn, and his Baihui point was still hurting. If it were any worse, he might have met the King of Hell.
So he bared his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "Damn it! I didn't get ten taels of gold, but people came in."
The sharp-eared government official immediately reported it to the county magistrate.
The county magistrate was shocked and ordered him to tell the truth.
No explanation?
Then let’s start with the twenty big boards.
When he heard that he was about to get slapped, Lao Liu confessed the truth with his neck twisted: "That's right! We really have no enmity with the Xu family. My six brothers use people's money to do things for them. Whoever gives us money, we will help them."
Work.”
"Who hired you?"
"Who knows? That man is wearing a black gauze cloak. I can't see his face clearly."
"Girl, this case is probably going to be unsolved." Xu Kui came back from the Yamen and came to Xu Yin worriedly, "The mastermind has not been found, and it is not safe here. Girl, why don't you go back home?"
Xu Yin shook her head: "The other party didn't succeed. If they still want to continue, even if I go back to the house, do you think nothing will happen? We should still do what we should do, but you can watch and send more nursing staff. Yes.
Yes, the nursing home who was injured that day asked you to send them to Xujia Village to recuperate. How are they doing now?"
"Except for Zhao Dejin, who was a little seriously injured and still lying on the bed, everything else has recovered. I asked them to stay in Xujia Village for the time being. Anyway, it would be good to have more manpower patrolling there. The little one here has sent two more troops from the government.
The team is coming."
"You didn't tell the housekeeper, did you?"
"The girl won't let me tell you, but I will definitely listen to the girl. When my father asked, I said it was because the girl's garden lacked manpower, and ordinary people's physical strength is too weak, so she had to enroll in a nursing home."
Xu Yin smiled, quite clever.
Over there, Liao Ji's shopkeeper heard that the incident had been exposed, and that the six brothers on the road whom he had hired were actually captured alive.
What to do now!
He went to find his employer with a pale face.
"Why are you panicking? I didn't confess you."
Liao Guangtian glanced at him and smoked a cigarette lazily.
He wasn't afraid at all. Even if the shopkeeper was found responsible, the worst he could do was push the shopkeeper out and pick up the bag. Anyway, this matter was handled by the shopkeeper from beginning to end.
"But the boss..."
"Okay! Let's do this for now. We'll talk about the secret recipe of the perfume after the storm subsides. If you're afraid, just quit your job as a shopkeeper and go back to the countryside to farm."
The shopkeeper then stopped saying anything.
He was used to living a life of fine clothing and fine food, and letting him return to the countryside to farm was simply more painful than killing him.
Besides, based on his understanding of his employer, if he really resigned from his job as shopkeeper Liao Ji, he would probably be dealt with by someone hired by his employer before he even returned to the countryside.
A person who knows too many secrets about his employer still expects to escape unscathed? How naive!
…
If we say that before this case occurred, the expensive perfumes of Xu's Perfume Shop were only popular among the aristocratic class in Los Angeles.
Well, after this case, ordinary people at the bottom also know: that thing called perfume, just one drop is enough to give a woman a fragrant and natural body fragrance, making Xu's spice shop make a lot of money every day, no wonder it attracts interested people
He covets it and spends a lot of money to hire thieves to steal the formula.
I was very curious and went to Xu's spice shop to inquire about it. I couldn't afford it, but it would be good to experience it.
But I was too embarrassed to just inquire without spending, and I couldn't afford perfume. I saw other spices at low prices in the spice shop, so I bought some.
As a result, the business of Xu's Spice Shop has become more prosperous than ever before.
Xu Yin was quite dumbfounded after hearing this: Is this a blessing in disguise?
