Chapter 315: Lift the red silk! Add joy!
Chapter 315: Lift the red silk! Add joy!
"I am not wrong, right!"
"They actually asked him to lift the red silk?"
Everyone looked at him and exclaimed in surprise!
And with the exclamations, the red silk was successfully lifted up!
"Lift up the red silk! Add joy! May your guests come in droves, and may your wealth flow in!"
With a loud shout from the person who lifted the silk, the red silk fell to the ground.
The gold-plated plaque "Fenghua" caught everyone's eyes.
The two words are lively and vivid, graceful and with a hint of grandeur!
Everyone applauded!
"it is good!"
"I wish the boss a prosperous business!"
Some people were puzzled when they saw the people next to them clapping so hard.
"Hey, do you know the owner of this shop?"
The person who was clapping was interrupted and shook his head.
"I don't know him, what's the matter?"
"Then why are you so excited? As a man, are you interested in his perfume?"
This person is even more inexplicable.
The man who was clapping put down his hands and glanced at him.
"Didn't you see? The one who lifted the red silk was the prefect!"
"I have never seen the prefect lift the red silk for any business in my life! This one is really outrageous!"
The man said in an incredulous tone.
"Master Prefect?"
"Brother, I'm from another place, no, is this really the prefect coming to lift the red silk?"
Obviously, this person was also shocked.
Not to mention in Xiuli City, it could be anywhere.
I've never heard of a prefect lifting red silk for someone.
"Could it be that... the owner of this store is a close friend of the prefect?"
He couldn't help but guess.
The man he was talking to shook his head, not knowing the connection.
He shrugged indifferently.
"Who cares? We'll just show our support and that's it. We have to give face to the prefect of Xiuli City!"
The man also nodded.
Turn your eyes towards the store entrance.
The prefect lifted the red silk and smiled, a rare moment.
Qin Ye handed over a red envelope with a smile.
"Good! Thank you, Mr. Prefect, for raising the red silk for our store!"
The words intentionally led the crowd to applaud, and everyone was very respectful!
The applause was deafening.
In the crowd, several people made eye contact.
Some are timid.
Several people slowly approached each other and whispered.
"How to do?"
The lady, who was about forty years old, had a calculating look on her face and spoke first.
A man who looked extremely ordinary also frowned.
"We are paying for the job, and he didn't say that the prefect has raised the red silk!"
You, a man about 20 years old and a bit lazy, also curled the corner of your mouth in disdain.
"Humph, you want us to offend the government for a few taels of silver? What a fuss!"
"I don't want it anyway, you can make a fuss if you want!"
The man rolled his eyes to show his attitude.
They all met a woman this morning who gave them five taels of silver each.
Let them shout it out at the entrance of Fenghua, which is about to open, as the woman said.
Just shouting a few words can earn you five taels of silver! Isn't this pie in the sky?
So they came without saying a word!
Unexpectedly, this woman was trying to trick them!
They have the prefect in charge!
The words she asked them to shout were obviously not in line with the store's wishes. Wouldn't this be discord with the prefect?
If you offend the prefect by then, not only will you lose five taels of silver, you won't even be able to save your life!
After hearing what the young man said, everyone looked at each other and lowered their heads in thought.
Seeing that they were still reluctant to give up, the man raised his lips in a scornful arc.
"Heh... a bunch of money-hungry guys!"
He said this calmly, then turned and left.
A few people also wanted to follow suit and gritted their teeth to give up the money.
"Hey, are you just leaving like this? This is five taels of silver!"
A woman who looked to be in her fifties stopped a few people with an anxious expression.
They lowered their voices so that only the other party could hear them.
"I want you to think about it carefully. How much effort do we need to put in to earn these five taels of silver?"
"Now you can get it with just a few words. Are you really willing to give it up?"
The woman tried to persuade them earnestly, secretly cursing them for being stupid!
What's the difference between this money and giving it away for free! Why give it up? !
Seeing that the men's eyes were loosened, the woman added fuel to the fire.
"There are so many people here. If we just shout and run, who would know it was us who shouted?"
When they looked up, they saw that there was indeed a large crowd of people standing there!
Everyone's eyes were wandering, looking at each other, unable to make a decision for a moment.
"Don't worry, so many people won't be able to find it. Even if they do, what's the big deal? We're just paying silver and shouting a few words. Can the prefect really take people's lives lightly?"
The woman stared at everyone.
"We barefoot people are not afraid of those who wear shoes. I am an old woman half buried in the ground and I am not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"
Just one sentence made everyone make up their minds!
"Yes, the law does not punish the masses. There are so many of us shouting and we run away! The prefect didn't bring any officials with him, how can he catch us?"
"My family is already struggling to make ends meet, and I'm shouting for five taels of silver!"
"Disperse first, and don't run together after you shout!"
After a few people whispered to each other, they mixed with the crowd and dispersed everywhere.
Looking at each other, no one wanted to be the first to stand out!
The opening ceremony was coming to an end as the prefect and the wealthy businessmen finished their speeches!
Everyone looked anxious, but still no one spoke.
Eye contact with each other!
The prefect had a sullen face and cleared his throat!
"The last item——"
"Fenghua boss Su Jiuyue is reckless and killed a refugee!"
The prefect had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by a sharp woman's voice!
This shout came unexpectedly! Su Jiuyue looked in the direction of the sound, and saw only ordinary people. She couldn't tell who was shouting.
I snorted in my heart!
"coming!"
Everyone expected someone to cause trouble, so although they were surprised for a moment, no one showed too much panic.
There was no rush to explain.
The sudden shouting also made the others think of something.
"I have heard some rumors in the past two days..."
"Me too. I heard that this Fenghua was opened by a talented lady named Su. That talented lady Su was lawless in Yishan County and killed refugees for fun..."
"I heard that she is hooking up with the prince, and the county magistrate can't do anything about her."
"I heard that the youngest son of the magistrate of Yishan County has a strange disease and only Miss Su can save him. His life is in Miss Su's hands, so how can you not turn a blind eye?"
At first, they just discussed in low voices, and then Su Jiuyue and the others fell silent.
The crowd became more and more bold, and the discussions became louder and louder!
The prefect's face became even darker!
He had a ferocious look to begin with, and now that he was unhappy, there was even a hint of evil in his expression.
"Don't make irresponsible comments! This last item is——"
"The prefect raised the red silk for Su Jiuyue's store. Did he accept money and want to protect the Su family?"
Another male voice interrupted him!
The prefect was a little angry! He looked over fiercely!
But still couldn't find out who made the speech.
Su Jiuyue and Bai Jinyan's eyes both fell on a very ordinary-looking man.
