Chapter 1,484: Are you the only one who has a problem?
In the end, the man who was dragged away by the government guards just now was today's witness.
Hearing this, Xu Jing's face couldn't help but reveal an embarrassed expression.
He still remembered the sworn hatred in that guy's eyes when he yelled at him just now.
Now I really started to wonder... Could it be that I had done something unknowingly that I felt sorry for that man?
perfume?
Oh yeah…perfume!
Suddenly I recalled what the man yelled just now, and I vaguely remembered that the man said that his wife felt dizzy and vomited after using his perfume...
His perfume...could there be something wrong with the formula?
Xu Jing couldn't help but think of this possibility that made his hair stand on end. He raised his head and looked around. Needless to say, Liu Zhang said that today was one of the few times when he was reliable.
But what about Pang Xi?
It is said that Pang Xi will be interrogated today, but looking at the way he is sitting firmly on the high platform, there is no trace of the panic of the person being interrogated?
Then there is the female boss named Cai Ming next to me...
Today was indeed the first time that Xu Jing saw this person. He was really shocked by her beauty at first, but then he thought about it... Being able to come to Yizhou alone, and rely on his own ability to open a shop and sell perfume, such a
If you say a woman is a fool, only a devil will believe it.
The only possibility is...that this guy is pretending to be very weak...in order to make himself relax his vigilance.
Could it be that…
Could it be said that he was already in the game from the beginning?
Xu Jing didn't dare to think about it anymore. At this moment, there was another noisy sound coming from behind. Xu Jing could tell the identity of the person without turning around.
It was the witness who had insulted him who was pushed away just now. He was escorted back by the guards. Although he was still mumbling, he was obviously restrained now.
"Silence, silence!"
Liu Zhang sat on the high hall, frowning and tapping the board.
The chaotic sounds in the field were gradually suppressed.
"Bring the witness forward, I have something to ask him!"
"yes!"
The government guards responded and stepped forward, along with the witness who was not very emotionally stable.
Seemingly knowing that he was about to be interrogated, the witness came to the scene. As soon as he saw Liu Zhang, he knelt down and shouted:
"Ran Jingtong, a grass-roots man, comes to see Mr. Zhou Mu! I also ask you to make decisions for the grass-roots people and for their wives! Bring Xu Jing, the dog official who cares about people's lives, to justice!"
"You! You are slanderous! When did I ever harm you?
Do you know the consequences of such slander?"
Xu Jing had recovered his emotions at first, but when he heard that this guy still insisted that he had harmed his family, he became furious and pointed at this person to refute.
However, Liu Zhang shouted loudly in the hall:
"Xu Jing, I am interrogating witnesses now! You have no role to speak!"
"Yes...yes, sir..."
Liu Zhang's scolding made Xu Jing couldn't help but shut his mouth, but he couldn't hide the look in his eyes - if there weren't so many people here, he would have been planning how to kill this guy who was talking nonsense.
Seeing that Xu Jing was not talking, Liu Zhang twirled his beard with satisfaction and looked at the guy who called himself Ran Jingtong again:
"Ran Jingtong, since you keep saying that Xu Jingcong harmed you and your wife, can you elaborate on this matter?"
"No problem, sir! It's... it's like this."
Ran Jingtong straightened up, holding back tears and trying his best to control his emotions. As he narrated, everyone finally learned a fact that had never been made public:
"A month ago, my wife came back from doing laundry and told me that there seemed to be two new rouge shops opened in the market in the city... Although we are not a wealthy family, we have worked hard for so many years and relied on
Pickling fish and meat for others can be regarded as a living. The only thing I feel sorry for my wife is that since she married me, my family has not been able to spare any spare money to dress her up."
"The little savings I had were used to support my children's education. People in the neighborhood said that being able to marry my wife was a blessing I had acquired in my previous life. I thought so too, so when I heard him talk about the Rouge Shop that day, I
Then I made up my mind to find some time to buy her some rouge and gouache to dress her up properly——"
Ran Jingtong's tone became much calmer. After speaking, the image of a hard-working and loving couple appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
However, at this time, his tone suddenly changed, becoming melancholy and filled with hidden anger:
"I remember what my wife said. She said that two new rouge shops have opened in the city. In fact, the business of these two rouge shops is booming enough. You don't need to ask to know that they are the shops opened by the two people next to me now.
"
"At first, I couldn't believe the smell of the perfume I heard. The rouges and gouache in my impression were all vermilion powders placed in small boxes. At that time, I checked between two stores and saw
The things they put in the container are all perfumes in small porcelain bottles..."
"But it doesn't matter...since he can be so popular, he must have his own reasons. Besides, so many people are using it, doesn't it mean that this thing is really popular?"
When Ran Jingtong said this, Xu Jing snorted and nodded:
"It seems that you also know that my perfume is so popular, why do you have such a big reaction?"
Hearing Xu Jing's sarcasm, Ran Jingtong was no longer angry. He just glanced at him coldly and said in a strong tone:
"How do you know that only my family is affected?"
"If you weren't the only one affected, why didn't others come to accuse me?"
"hehe…"
Xu Jing was still quibbling, but at this moment it was not just Ran Jingtong who smiled, but many people around him had meaningful smiles on their faces, which made Xu Jing suddenly feel a little worried.
"Don't be impatient yet, Mr. Xu, please listen to me first."
Ran Jingtong turned around and no longer answered Xu Jing's taunts. He just faced Liu Zhang and the people present and continued:
"In the end, I did choose your perfume. Not to mention anything else, Xu Da's perfume is indeed cheap enough. A bottle of the perfume sold by Ms. Cai's family costs a full 500 yuan. This price is enough to buy it at Xu Da's family.
Ten bottles. As mentioned earlier, we are not from a wealthy family. Five hundred coins is already too expensive for us. Within the scope of my ability, I could only choose two bottles of perfume from Xu adults and took them home as gifts to me.
Lady."
"In fact, there is no problem until now... My wife couldn't put it down after getting the perfume. She would often put some on it when she went shopping with the girls in the same street. This made me feel that the money was indeed spent on the right place."
"until…"
"Until a few days ago, Xu Daren's Rouge Shop re-launched a new perfume - although the price was a little more expensive than before, but I heard others said it tasted better, so I bought two bottles and took them back without thinking too much.
Got home."
"But my wife used these two bottles as usual, but she started to feel dizzy on the same day."
"We just thought that the weather was getting hotter and my wife was suffering from heat stroke... she would just rest for a while, but we never thought that the second time she used this perfume, my wife's reaction would be even more severe, and she would not only feel dizzy.
I couldn't walk steadily, and I even suffered from nausea and vomiting. I was so weak from vomiting that I had no strength no matter what I did."
"This... is all due to the new perfume that Mr. Xu recently launched!"
