"Brother!"
Outside Fuming Courtyard, Lin Ruqian rushed into the courtyard with an anxious look on his face and almost tripped over the steps at the door.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" He happened to be seen by Lin Mobai, who came to see Lin Zhiyu together, and couldn't help but reprimanded him seriously, "If other people saw him, they would think that I, Lin Mansion, This is the etiquette!"
Lin Ruqian didn't bother to yell at him now, and said quickly: "There was something wrong with the batch of silk satin that came in from outside the Great Wall two days ago. Some people said that the finished clothes were poisonous. People came to Shangchenpu to ask for an explanation, and some even came with corpses!"
"What!" Lin Mobai was shocked.
He didn't expect that someone would die!
At this time, the closed door opened from the inside, and Lin Zhiyu quickly walked out, staring at Lin Ruqian with his eyes fixed on him, his tone suddenly darkened, "What did you say?"
Lin Ruqian only discovered this in the morning, because Shangchenpu was his It was a decent shop among many, with neither profit nor loss, so he thought of a way to purchase the most popular silk and satin in the Western Regions to make ready-made clothes for sale, which would definitely be loved by the ladies in the boudoir of Yanjing City.
But after unloading the goods, he was distracted by the recent incident between the Lin Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he simply left the rest of the matter to the shopkeeper.
Who would have thought that something happened during this period.
When he wanted to take a look today on a whim, he found that many people had gathered at the door of the shop. They all denounced the poisonous ready-made clothes sold by Shangchen Shop. They even placed a woman with a purple complexion and unconsciousness at the door of the shop, making a huge noise. , attracted many people to watch, and almost alarmed the government.
The shopkeeper can't make the decision, so he can only come to him.
But this was Lin Ruqian's first time encountering something like this. He was in a panic and couldn't make up his mind, so he could only come to his elder brother for help.
After hearing this, Lin Zhiyu pondered: "Have everyone in the shop been under control?"
Lin Ruqian nodded, "Now the shop has been closed by me, and I have sent people to hold the waiters and shopkeepers there, and they have not been interrogated. "
The first thing that came to mind when this happened was that there was a problem among themselves. Lin Ruqian also understood some of the truth under the influence of his father and brother, so even if he was in a panic, he dealt with some basic things in an orderly manner before rushing. Return to Lin Mansion.
"Where did you get this silk and satin from?" Lin Mobai asked, "Is there something wrong with the source?"
"It shouldn't be." Lin Ruqian shook his head, "The silk and satin in Shangchenpu has always been imported from a merchant outside the Great Wall. If there was going to be a problem with the goods, it would have already happened, and during the inspection, I checked carefully and there was indeed no problem. If the silk and satin were poisonous, why were only the people who wore the clothes poisoned, and not those who made the clothes? What about poisoning?"
"It makes sense." Lin Mobai sighed, "What should we do now?"
He was not good at business and couldn't think of a way.
After a while, Lin Zhiyu muttered: "Ruqian, first go and investigate the identities of those who were poisoned, and then check whether the batch of silk and satin is indeed poisonous."
"And Mobai, interrogate the clerk at Shangchen Shop . I'll leave it to you. At the same time, I'll check if there's anything wrong with the merchant outside the Great Wall. I'll report it to my parents first and see how we can deal with it later."
The two nodded and left separately.
In Shangchun Garden, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in the mind of Lin Baoer, who was drowsy.
[Ding ~ A temporary mission has been released. Save the Shangchen Shop. The reward for completing the mission is 150 points. Does the host accept it? ]
This immediately woke her up from her drowsiness. Shangchenpu? It sounds like the name of a shop, as if Lin Ruqian is in charge? What happened to this shop?
After thinking about it for a while, she still chose to accept it. After all, for 150 points, fly meat is also meat!
At this moment, Lin Zhiyu rushed in hurriedly, "Father! Mother!"
After a long time, the whole story was revealed, and Lin Baoer fell into silence.
She discovered that this was already her second temporary mission since she came to this world, and it seemed to have nothing to do with the main plot. Was it because her arrival created a butterfly effect?
"You did the right thing. Now send someone to comfort the poisoned person first, and wait until the investigation results are out." Lin Qiming said in a deep voice, paused, and then said cryptically: "Don't let it cause trouble in Dali Temple at this time. Press it down."
Lin Zhiyu agreed one by one.
[Is this another good thing done by that old coward Deng, the Prime Minister? But this approach doesn't seem very like...]
Lin Baoer thought about it in his heart.
In fact, judging from the original plot, this is more like what the third prince did.
Because in the original plot, the third prince was impoverished because he was not favored since he was a child. Later, after devouring part of the Lin family's property, he had the capital to rebel.
But why didn't this appear in the original plot?
Lin Baoer was puzzled.
But her idea made Lin Qiming keep an eye on it, and he immediately sent someone to check in the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Third Prince.
Two hours later, the three people who left returned one by one.
Lin Ruqian said: "There is something wrong with those people who were poisoned. Most of them are new faces and don't often buy things at Shangchenpu. But just after the batch of ready-made clothes made of silk and satin came out outside the Great Wall, they went there one after another and bought several in a row. "
After further questioning, they claimed that it was just a coincidence. They got angry and kicked our people out without giving them any money. It seemed that they just wanted to make the matter bigger. No matter how hard they looked at the person behind it, there was no clue.
" If this continues, people from the government will definitely know." He worried, feeling very guilty in his heart. This happened because of his poor management, and he was more or less responsible.
"And... I checked that batch of silk and satin, and it was indeed poisonous."
Lin Ruqian clenched her fists, frowned, and felt a breath of air in her chest, feeling depressed: "But I also touched it at that time! The material was of the highest quality. , and it doesn't have any pungent smell. If it was poisonous, I would have been poisoned long ago. Why did it become poisonous after it was turned into ready-made clothes?"
[The toxin is not necessarily reflected in the fabric and taste, maybe the gorgeous color is it? Covered up for this purpose. ]
Lin Baoer had this thought in his mind when he heard Lin Ruqian say that those silks and satins were colorful.
Shen Xuelan knew that he was not at peace, so she touched his head comfortingly, "Don't be anxious, there is a solution to everything."
Lin Qiming said nothing, but just focused on Lin Mobai.
Lin Mobai said sternly: "Those clerks and shopkeepers have no problem, but the businessman outside the Great Wall, under my questioning, he told another thing about silk."
