"The man who came to the door looking for the second master said he was a clerk at the 'Fu Shui Shao Guo', but the people at the door didn't like him and refused to pass on the news.
I happened to be passing by, and I heard from Xing'er before that he and the second master had been to the "Fu Shui Shao Guo", so I had the courage to come and tell the second master."
Jia Lian took a look at Long'er, who looked round-headed and dull-looking. Although his speech was a bit slow, his logic was clear and understandable. He felt a little better for him and said: <
/p>
"You did well.
Did the guy who cooked the pot say what happened?"
After seeing Jia Lian's praise, Long'er raised his head. His face was still expressionless, and his speech was still slow:
"He was so anxious that he said someone had set the pot on fire and burned someone. Their shopkeeper Qu asked him to come and quickly ask the second master for help."
When Jia Lian heard this, he stood up with a roar:
The pot was burned? And people were burned? Is this okay?
Whether it is an accident or arson, this matter must be investigated clearly!
But in his previous life, Jia Lian was, after all, a thirty-year-old man who had seen the storm. Not panicking when things happened was his top priority.
Wang Xin's self-cursing and He Xing'er's echoes were still heard in the yard. Jia Lian looked at Long'er, who didn't look very smart and spoke a little impatiently, but seemed to be a good and caring person.
, Jia Lian decided to take him on this trip just to test his character and ability.
He thought for a moment and told Long'er:
"Go to the front first and ask the person in charge of their medicine store to get some medicine for treating burns and scalds. Tell them that I need it urgently.
Then quickly find a doctor who can treat burns and scalds and bring him to Fushui Boiler to find me."
Take out two taels of silver:
"I'll hire a car for you, don't delay."
Long'er responded one by one, slapped a thousand politely, turned around and walked away quickly.
Jia Lian thought:
Apart from other things, it’s no wonder that Wang Xifeng didn’t make Long’er a confidant because of his slow and unhurried speaking style.
I hope she made a mistake and let herself catch it.
Jia Lian hurried out and saw the man from "Fu Shui Guo" still at the door, anxiously turning around.
The guy with a streak of black on the left side and a streak of mud on the right side of his face felt as if he had met a great savior when he saw Jia Lian. He rushed forward in a hurry, knelt down and kowtowed:
"Second Master, Second Master, I finally met the Second Master. Something big happened in the pot!
A fire burned down several of our houses and even burned the girl! The shopkeeper was so anxious that he vomited blood and asked the younger brother to come and find the second master to help!
But they didn’t let me in, and I didn’t dare to go back, but I was so anxious!”
When Jia Lian heard this, he turned around and called a boy at the door:
"Hurry up and hire a car for me. If you want the animals to run fast, go quickly!"
And comfort the guy:
"Didn't you find me? Don't worry.
In the car later, you can tell me what happened in detail.
As long as I’m here, ‘Fu Shui Shao Guo’ can’t fall down.”
Jia Lian urged him all the way, and the carriage also got double the fare. He shouted loudly and whipped his horse wildly, and the carriage ran very fast.
Within half an hour, I saw the Fu Shui Cauldron still emitting wisps of black smoke.
As soon as the car arrived nearby, the guy climbed to the front of the car and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Second Master Lian is here! Second Master Lian is here! Shopkeeper! Second Master Lian is here!"
Before the car had even stopped, two guys helped the pale-faced Qu Siping and stumbled out of the courtyard gate.
When Qu Siping saw Jia Lian, he burst into tears:
"Second Master! Second Master! Someone set a fire!
They are going to kill them all!
Hops... It was the hops that caught fire first. This silly boy... put out the fire like crazy... He burned himself to an unnatural state... Oh my god, you've tricked me to death!
My second master...help me..."
Jia Lian's heart felt sour, his nose felt sore, and his tears welled up.
After getting along with each other these days, he felt that Qu Siping himself was an honest person who was addicted to technology. Although his emotional intelligence was not high, his character was really good and he would never default on the things he agreed to do.
He is also kind to the waiters in the cooking pot. Even if he sells his land and is unable to eat or sleep, he never withholds or owes the waiters a penny.
Therefore, although the wages of the workers in his hotpot are only moderate compared with those of other hotpots around him, they are basically old workers who have been working there for more than ten years.
Seeing this honest man being forced into this situation, Jia Lian was not only uncomfortable but also angry.
But Qu Siping has collapsed, and Jia Lian must be more stable, otherwise who will control the situation?
Jia Lian suppressed the sadness and anger in his heart, kept himself calm and firm, stepped forward to support Qu Siping, and patted him hard on the shoulder:
"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Qu. Now that I'm here, I can take care of everything."
Looking around, I could see that more than half of the building in the courtyard had been burned down, and half of the dozen or so clerks had also lost their jobs. He said:
"Since the fire has been saved, let's take the loss as it is. We have to take care of people first."
He supported Qu Siping and walked toward the courtyard, only to hear the waiter say:
"Look at that car!"
Jia Lian turned around and saw a carriage rushing towards this direction like crazy, raising smoke and dust all the way into the sky.
Jia Lian thought to himself: I never expected that Long'er, who looks dull, is actually a good at getting things done.
He supported Qu Siping, and as soon as he reached the door of Jiuhua's house, he heard the carriage suddenly stop at the door of the courtyard, and then someone made a "wow" sound and vomited all over the floor.
The man gasped:
"Long'er, you damn ghost, where are you in a hurry? You're simply rushing me! Before I even see the patient, I won't be able to get up here."
Long'er didn't care about him, he ran up behind Jia Lian and hit him neatly. As soon as he opened his mouth, he was so slow that it made people jump:
"Second Master, I brought badger oil and snake oil from our medicine store.
This doctor is a neighbor of my relative. He once served in the army and knows how to treat burns and scalds. In the first few years, he even went to the border and treated soldiers who were burned by "gold juice".
His medicine shop has ready-made cold water stones, rhubarb, red stone resin, calcined oysters, and burnet burnt, all of which can be used to treat burns and scalds. The slave asked him to bring them all for convenience."
Jia Lian looked up at the sky and sighed:
This Long'er, he handles things so quickly and so well! He speaks so slowly and in a hurry!
Does this count as leak detection? Or does it count as eye-opening?
Jia Lian supported the heartbroken Qu Siping, and Long'er supported the old military doctor who was weak from vomiting, and entered Jiuhua's house one after another.
As soon as I opened the door, I was greeted by an unpleasant smell, mixed with the smell of burnt flesh, medicine, sesame oil, and even onions.
Jia Lian was confused: This room is not a kitchen. Is this the girl you want to stew or something?
A skinny old woman was leaning on the bedside. When she saw so many people coming in, she opened her mouth but said nothing.
When he looked towards the bed, Jia Lian's heart sank.
