Chapter two hundred and seventy sixth scapegoat
"Oh... His second aunt, where did you pull the blue and white cotton cloth? Seeing that the cloth head is dense and symmetrical, are you planning to make new clothes for your third girl?"
"Hey, my seventh aunt, I am a poor family, and I am not a holiday, so I can think about what new clothes to make? This is the job of taking a job in the front door to Hu Zhuangyuan's house to contract labor and materials, and I have to make a new curtain for summer! I went to Ruifengxiang early, pulled the cloth and went home and started it!"
"The material from Ruifengxiang is not to be picked, but the price is really unspeakable. You really get what you pay for! I said to his second aunt, why don't you go to the chrysanthemum club to pick up cloth? The price is much cheaper, but you can get some items to buy! "
"Miss Seventh Aunt, it turns out you don't know what happened near Zhushikouer Street a few days ago?"
"Oh...I haven't gone out these days. I really don't know what's new on the street?"
"It was just two days ago that the shopkeeper of the Jushu was sitting in the street and asked someone to clean up the car on the street. It was not counted if the jushuhu had died. The person who started the attack made it clear on the street, saying that they should be picking money and not giving it to them!"
"Jujishe is such a big deal, who can owe to the money for the money? Besides, that's the matter of owing debts and paying money, why did he still cause death in the street?"
"I also heard people on the streets that saw the scene, saying that the person who started to attack the shopkeeper of Jushu was a bandit with iron guns outside the mouth! On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the big fire on Zhushikouer Street was released by the bandits who were so robbed by the bandits outside the mouth, so that they could take advantage of the situation to rob! Grandma Seventh, think about it, what can this be related to the bandits outside the mouth, and what can they do? Besides, can the bandits outside the mouth be provoked by the bandits outside the mouth be done by what they can do?"
"It's true! His second aunt asked you to say this, but I still figured out a reason - everything in this chrysanthemum club is a bit cheaper than the other buyers. I'm afraid that this is not very authentic..."
"My grandma Seventh aunt, you are wise! But with the calculation of the business in the world, you always seek profits for the capital! But if you don't have a business, can you sell it with real gold as a cheap price like brass? Maybe... This chrysanthemum club is the realm of the stolen goods that are not sold outside the mouth! It would be fine if everyone didn't know about it in the past, but now it's spread all over the city. You said that if we go to the chrysanthemum club to buy things, then the officials will investigate it, and we may have to eat it!"
"That's right... well, I don't think about buying a little needle and thread when the chrysanthemum club is going to avoid saving two big boys, but it will bring back a lot of trouble!"
After such street discussions, after the streets and the name of the iron spear was lit up in the street, it was already spread in Sijiu City, and the more it was spread, it was said that people had a nose and eyes. It only took only two or three days. The chrysanthemum club, which was originally full of traffic in front of the door, became deserted.
No matter how hard the chrysanthemum clubs work hard, the water brand outside the store changes its discounts again and again every day, but there are very few customers who really go to the chrysanthemum club to buy things.
When it was dark, I closed the account and went to the door panel from early morning to when I opened the door when I was holding the lights, and there were only a dozen people who had a day of flowing water. But these two ignorant children went to the chrysanthemum club and bought a snack!
With a drooping face, the newly selected manager in the chrysanthemum club looked at the dozen or so scattered in the cash box on the cabinet, and shook his head helplessly at the chrysanthemum club staff around him: "Everyone, let's get here today! According to the previous rules, everyone will take the place to guard the night. Those who are on the night must wake up and be extra careful!"
They nodded and agreed. The juvenile staff who surrounded the juvenile manager suddenly scattered and became busy according to their usual division of labor. The juvenile manager stood silently in the store for a while, then quietly reached out to take out a small scroll of paper from his arms and squeezed it into the palm of his hand. He then slowly moved his feet towards the juvenile backyard.
On the day Zuosuke Katsumasa was attacked, the Kikusho man who was stabbed in his chest by two iron guns and his head was killed on the spot. Mr. Qi San, who asked Zuosuke Katsumasa to kick him out of the car, just knocked off his two big teeth. On the contrary, the injuries suffered by Zuosuke Katsumasa were really scratching his head!
The blood groove on his face was cut by the iron spear tip was easy to clean up. However, the left would leave a scar that could not be covered in the future. But it was poured into the hot pot of soy sauce on Zuosuke Katsumasa's face. But I don't know what kind of medicine I had mixed in. It's okay to say the burned place, but my eyes couldn't open it at all. I opened my eyelids and saw a little light. I immediately felt that the pain was so painful that Zuosuke Katsumasa was screaming.
After asking the Chrysanthemum to hide in Sijiu City, those who knew medicine in secret stakes were found, but they only said that it might be poisoning, but they didn't know which kind of poison it was. When they asked the Western doctors to go to the clinic for treatment, several Western doctors who were considered outstanding in Sijiu City all shook their heads and were helpless against Zuosuke Katsumasa's injuries.
After finally kowtowing and knelt down, an old Chinese doctor came to see Zuo Nobusuke Katsumasa's injuries. The old Chinese doctor picked up a pen and prescribed a prescription, but he also said it. This injury has delayed the treatment. Even after healing, his eyes will probably be mostly useless. It is a fate to see a figure in the past ten steps...
Slowly walking to the door of Zuosuke Katsumasa's bedroom, the manager of Kikuso reached out and gently knocked on the door that was covered in a faint voice, shouting inward: "Shopkeeper, the general number has arrived!"
Almost as soon as the manager of Kikusho finished speaking, Zuosuke Katsumasa's promise with a little panic came from the room: "Is there any letter from the general account? Come in!"
After agreeing gently, the manager of the Kikusho reached out and pushed open the hidden door and walked into the room. After turning around and pressing the door bolt on the door, he quickly walked to the edge of Zuosuke Katsumasa's bed, and leaned half against the head of the bed, with ointment on his eyes covered with gauze, Zuosuke Katsumasa said in Japanese: "Your Excellency, the letter from the general number... I will read it to you?"
Nodded helplessly, Zuosuke Katsumasa gave a long sigh and responded in Japanese: "Is there any other way? My eyes... what is said in the letter of the General Number?"
He cleared his throat with a dry cough. The manager of the Chrysanthemum gently unfolded the small note that he had already held in his palm, and said in a low voice: "Stop all activities of the Chrysanthemum for the time being, and order Zuo Nobusuke Katsumasa to return to Fengtian to report his duties immediately!"
As soon as he struggled, Zuosuke Katsumasaki almost jumped up from the bed, and hurriedly looked for the direction from the voice of the kushu manager and shouted: "What did you say? You say it again?"
With dry throat, the manager of the Kikuso had no choice but to look at Zuosuke Katsumasa, saying: "Your Excellency, the general's order is to temporarily suspend all activities of the Kikuso, and order Zuosuke Katsumasa to return to Fengtian to report his duties immediately!"
Like an old cat with a tail trampled by someone, Zuosuke Katsumasa almost screamed and jumped up from the bed: "How could there be such an order?! How much effort did the Chrysanthemum take to take root in Peking City?! How could the General Account be so hasty... Ordering me to return to Fengtian immediately means that my previous efforts in the Chrysanthemumum will be wasted! We still have many things to plan, and there are still many more..."
Looking at Zuosuke Katsumasa's appearance of claws, the manager of Kikuso sighed and held Zuosuke Katsumasa's arm, half-pulled and half-pushed, let Zuosuke Katsumasa sit back on the bed: "Your Excellency, this is probably a last resort! Please think about it. In recent times, we have indeed made many mistakes, which will definitely make the general account feel dissatisfied. In addition, in the current city of Peking, we are already a living target that everyone is staring at. No matter what we do, we will not be as secret as before!"
Trying to shake off the slap of the slap of the kiriso manager on his arm, Zuosuke Katsumasa screamed: "Isn't it because of the ambush a few days ago? So what can it be? As long as you spend money to block the mouths of those Chinese who are officials, it won't take long to remember..."
Although he knew that Zuosuke Katsumasa could not see his actions at all, the manager of Kikuso still shook his head vigorously: "It won't be that simple! You, even those Chinese who love to be greedy for small gains, have not visited our shops these days! In the rumors on the streets and alleys, Kikuso has been equated with those guys with iron guns! Even if we spend more money to buy those officials, I am afraid that those officials will not be able to publicly protect us in public! You... Please allow me to take the liberty to express my understanding of the general order, is it okay?"
As if he had figured out something in an instant, Zuosuke Katsumasa slightly turned his head to the manager of the Kikusho standing beside him, and shook his head gently: "No need..... I think I probably understand! When will I leave?"
Sighing, the manager of the Kikumo Society grabbed a slap from Zuonosuke Katsumasa and stuffed the small note with the orders of the Kikumo mechanism into Zuonosuke Katsumasa's slap: "Tomorrow morning, there will be someone to accompany you to Fengtian!"
"So, will the person who takes over the job of the Chrysanthemum Club arrive tomorrow?"
"The person who took over your job has arrived. Now, accompanied by Master Qi San, we are meeting with some officials of the Beijing Municipal Government! Your Excellency..... It is a last resort to sacrifice for the overall situation, but it is also your supreme glory!"
"Is it a sacrifice for the overall situation? I'm afraid it's a scapegoat that can be used to clean up the mess, right? A shopkeeper who colluded with bandits fled for fear of guilt, and the new person who took over can make Jushu return to his previous peace after correcting the mistakes made by his former shopkeeper? If possible, can you tell me who is the one who succeeds Jushu?"
"Your Excellency, this is not what you should have known, but... Ishikawa Uenojun's name must have been heard of, right?"
"Ishikawa Ueno...is it the 'Ishikawa Ishikawa that cannot be caught'..." (To be continued...)
