"Who is it?" Zhang Cuilan put on a coat with sleepy eyes and went to open the door. She didn't know who it was, but she called the door before dawn.
"Aunt Zhang, you go back to sleep, and I'll open the door." Liu Yu said when she saw Zhang Cuilan getting up. Someone is looking for her so early, maybe because the plates ordered at Tu Kiln were delivered yesterday.
Zhang Dongping, who has passed the age of knowing his destiny, stood outside the door, a little uneasy. He wondered if Lord Tianshi would blame him for coming so early.
Yesterday morning, Liu Tianshi, a newcomer to the county, came to his earthen kiln and said he wanted to order a special-shaped plate, and he also gave him a painted pattern.
Zhang Dongping found that the style of the plate pictured in the picture is extremely rare. The plate is wide and horizontal, and the corners of the plate are slightly raised. At first glance, this kind of plate cannot hold many things and is not practical, but it is easy to bake. p>
The size of this plate is left to Zhang Dongping himself, but Liu Tianshi has a requirement: after pouring a bowl of water into an ordinary rice bowl into the cooked plate, the water should be spread on the plate as thinly as a layer of oil without leaking.
Moreover, even if a small insect is put into the plate, it will not be drowned by a thin layer of clear water. He also ordered the firing time to be as fast as possible, and it should not be later than xu o'clock the next night at the latest.
Zhang Dongping quickly called on all the people to rush to bake this special plate. This Master Liu has been in Tianping County for more than a month. He has a pretty good reputation and is very considerate. Since he came to the county to take up a post, he has not heard anyone say that he has any shady reasons.
A patient who died due to anger.
I also heard that the previous Tianshi Shen tried to rob a common girl in Xiaoxuelou, but was beaten up by this Tianshi Liu.
Now that I have come to do something for myself, I must complete the task well. Zhang Dongping worked all night long and baked the plate in his arms only in the early morning. He was afraid that Liu Yu would need it urgently, so he hurriedly delivered it. p>
"Master Tianshi, the plate you asked for." Seeing Liu Yu coming to open the door in person, Zhang Dongping quickly handed over the plate wrapped in straw paper in his arms.
"Uncle Zhang, thank you for your hard work. You can take these." Liu Yu took out five taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Dongping.
"Sir, it's my honor for a villain to do something for you. How can I accept money from you?" Zhang Dongping took a step back, shook his head and refused.
"Uncle Zhang, just take it!" Liu Yu took the plate from Zhang Dongping and put the silver into his hand.
"Then thank you, sir. I'll let you know next time if you have anything to do. I'll definitely be obliged to do so." Zhang Dongping accepted the money with peace of mind and thanked him.
"Uncle Zhang, you go back first, and I'll invite you in next time." Liu Yu said as she wanted to go back to the house.
"Sir, if you please, I will take my leave first." Zhang Dongping turned and left knowingly.
Originally he didn't plan to accept money, but he didn't expect Liu Tianshi to be so generous and gave him a full five taels of silver, which made him feel happy.
Zhang Cuilan saw Liu Yu holding something and entering the room, and she was a little confused. What could be delivered so early?
Master Liu Tianshi has been mysterious these past few days. He doesn’t know what he is doing. He stays in the house all day. When he sees that it is almost dawn, he goes to prepare breakfast.
Liu Yu returned to the room, opened the straw paper and looked at the plate that was delivered carefully. The plate was not small, like a small basin. It was made of red clay and was brown in color. The workmanship was good and it was exactly the same as what he had drawn. Put the plate on the table, pick up the cooked "Yinbian Soup", carefully pour it into the plate, then pick up the plate and shake the black liquid evenly, a thin layer of black liquid seems to be attached to the plate.<
/p>
Then carefully put the larvae that had just hatched last night into the plate. The fat and white larvae were soaked in the black liquid, with half of their bodies still exposed and squirming from time to time.
These larvae are attracted by the aroma of honey in the "Yinbian Soup" and begin to naturally suck the concentrated liquid.
Last night, more than a thousand eggs laid by the queen bee all hatched into larvae. All these larvae were placed in the "yinbian soup", and they were densely packed and immersed in the thick black liquid, which looked a bit disgusting.
Half an hour later, the white and fat larvae had sucked the "Yinbian soup", and their whole bodies had turned black and gained a lot of weight. They all lay down on the plate to rest. Liu Yu carefully poured back the full larvae.
Let them rest and recuperate in the "hive".
After Liu Yu put away the "honeycomb", he trotted into the kitchen and started cooking the second batch of "Yinbian Soup". These larvae need to eat once a day, and after four or five days of feeding, these larvae will mature and pupate.
Some are very busy.
…
"Sir, a police officer from Niuchong Town came and said he had something important to report." Wang Lun was in the county government office giving instructions on official documents when Ma Yiming, who was guarding the door, suddenly came to report.
"Oh! Let him in!" Niuchong Town is one of the more remote towns among the seven towns under the jurisdiction of Tianping County. Someone was specially sent here for some important matter. Wang Lun quickly asked Wang Yiming to let him in.
Soon, under the leadership of Wang Yiming, a young man wearing a police uniform, disheveled and in a daze walked in.
"Sir, you must avenge your brothers!" After seeing Wang Lun, the young detective immediately knelt on the ground and cried.
"Brother, get up first. What happened?" Wang Lun helped the young policeman who was kneeling on his knees and asked with a frown. It was obvious that a major case had occurred in Niuchong Town.
"My lord, just three days ago..." The young detective stood up and detailed what happened in the past few days.
The young man's name is Zhao Siming, and he is an ordinary policeman in Niuchong Town. His brother's name is Zhao Sigang, and he is the head catcher in charge of the Niuchong Town police station.
Three days ago in the afternoon, a maid went to the police station to report a crime, saying that the family of member Zhao's wife was killed by a murderer and blood flowed like a river.
Zhao Yuanwai is a big landowner in Niuchong Town, and his family has many thugs. The guard captain Li Guangli is also a good player, and the Thirteenth Route Killing Gun is also somewhat famous.
Zhao Sigang believed that he could not win completely against him, and felt that the situation was serious. Zhao Sigang carefully questioned the maid who came to report the case, while gathering people.
According to the maid's confession, the assailant was a knight who saved the second lady of the Zhao family a few days ago. In order to thank him, Zhao invited him to his home as a guest.
Unexpectedly, he led a wolf into the house and raped Miss Zhao. When Zhao found out, he was very angry and wanted to send him to see the officials. However, this thief was very powerful in martial arts. Not only was he not caught, but he also killed a member of the Zhao family.
Guard.
In the end, the gangster became red-blooded and killed everyone on sight, killing all the Zhao family members. Some of the servants escaped by running fast. The Zhao family was kind to this maid, so she hurried away.
Come and report the crime.
After a while, more than 30 police officers from the whole town gathered in the police room. Zhao Sigang looked at the gathered brothers and felt a little uneasy.
Judging from the description of the maid just now, he had no confidence with this small manpower. He was afraid there would be a bloody battle. Zhao Sigang wanted to delay the thief until he left the town, and then pretended to chase him.
Just report it to the superior.
"Captain Zhao, take your men and follow me." At this time, Mr. Li Zhengliang rushed to the arresting room. When he saw the arrests gathered, he said.
It turned out that this Mr. Liang happened to be the eldest son-in-law of Yuan Zhao. When he heard that his father-in-law's family had been massacred, he hurriedly brought more than a dozen personal guards to the arresting house, hoping to recruit others to go with him to catch the gangsters.
