Chapter 147 Preparing to "Starve to Death"
County government office.
Dou Weiyi clenched his fists tightly, looking as if he wanted to tear someone to pieces.
"Hmph, he actually wants a thousand taels. It's a real shame he's not a bandit."
Qin Shen frowned deeply and looked at Dou Weiyi with concern. "Dou Weiyi, be careful what you say."
Hearing this, Dou Weiyi felt even more aggrieved and turned around to roar, "Be careful with your words? I can't be careful at all, this is really infuriating!"
An unnamed fire raged above his head, and he slammed his hand on the table in front of him.
There was a "click".
The desk broke in two, a bitter end for Northwest China, and was "retired" on the spot.
Gao Mengli and Lin Xi had already stepped one foot across the threshold.
But when they saw the broken table on the ground, the two of them were speechless.
He quickly withdrew his foot and hid by the door, too afraid to go in.
Is Dou Weiyi on fire? Why is she so angry?
The two were completely bewildered, feeling that they had come at a very inopportune time.
Qin Shen looked at Dou Weiyi, who had completely gone mad, smashing teacups, pushing tables, and throwing inkstones in the yamen, and could only facepalm.
"The Crown Prince has truly mastered the art of manipulation!"
This Qianyu Kingdom, not to mention the entire country, most of the map was protected by the loyal warriors of our Dou family.
Putting aside this enormous contribution, they can't even be treated well.
My grandfather and father even captured the enemy general alive, ending the war and preserving the Yin family's territory.
Despite his merits, he only received a minor fifth-rank title of General of the State, which was given to his elder brother. Furthermore, this time he embezzled military pay.
At this point, Dou Weiyi was so angry that she kicked the chair she was sitting on to pieces.
He turned around and shouted angrily, "This is not embezzlement, this is clearly a death sentence for my brother Dou Zhan."
Not to mention that the rice from Kyoto has become two or three years old.
The most outrageous thing is that when they reached the border, they turned into black faces mixed with sand??
The elder brother was furious and wrote a remonstrance.
Before the advice could even be sent out at the border, it was intercepted by Crown Prince Yin Bi's spies, imprisoned, and he was extorted for a ransom of one thousand taels of silver.
Over the years, Dou Zhan has been imprisoned at least fifty times, if not a hundred.
This Yin Bi is trying to drain the Dou family dry, bit by bit.
Dou Weiyi grew angrier the more she thought about it. Where was he supposed to find that thousand taels of silver?
But he was a subject.
If a ruler commands his subject to die, the subject must die as if he were dead.
Thinking of this, Dou Weiyi immediately lost her spirit and slumped to the ground, completely bewildered.
Dou Weiyi looked half-dead as she stared at Qin Shengsheng, "Tell me, what's the other good news?"
Qin Shen looked at the distraught Dou Weiyi and felt deep sympathy.
This Qianyu Kingdom is already completely rotten.
He sighed before speaking, "The good news is that there's news about [the Yin Yin White Bone Flower Strong Man]."
Upon hearing this, Dou Weiyi's eyes lit up, and she quickly scrambled to her feet. "There's news? Where is he?!"
This person has offered a reward of three thousand taels of silver!
Qin Shen raised her hand to signal Dou Wei to calm down first, "Don't get excited. Although we have news, this Yin Yin White Bone Flower Fierce Man is extremely troublesome."
Most importantly, he possesses profound internal energy and superb martial arts skills; the two of us are probably no match for him, and also…
Dou Weiyi tensed for a moment, then quickly took two steps forward and anxiously asked, "What else?"
Qin Shensheng's lips curled into a smile, "Also, he might have appeared in your territory, sir!"
Upon hearing this, Dou Weiyi was incredibly excited. "Oh!! Where is it?!"
This muscular man always appeared with a different face, so they really didn't know what he looked like.
The only thing I know is that there's always a shower of peach blossoms whenever they appear.
Qin Shengsheng looked at Dou Weiyi with a complicated expression.
His family members didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the situation.
Wherever that thing appears, women always go missing, and they can't be caught.
His skills are clearly exceptional.
Qin Shen gave a meaningful laugh, "Dou Weiyi, aren't you worried that you won't be able to catch him?"
Dou Weiyi's excitement remained undiminished.
He had to save his brother, so even if he couldn't catch Hua Mengnan, he had to catch him.
That was his "ransom".
Seeing that Dou Weiyi was in a good mood, Qin Shen couldn't stand it. He glanced at the mess in the yamen and chuckled mischievously.
"Oh, right, do you want to hear some bad news?"
Dou Weiyi was overjoyed and waved his sleeve, "Speak, speak!"
Apart from the Dou family's affairs, nothing else is a bad thing!
Qin Shensheng crossed her arms and said seriously, "The table you just broke is worth 5 taels of silver, that chair is worth one tael, the inkstone is worth 500 cash, and oh right, and these, and these..."
Upon hearing this, Dou Weiyi's smile instantly froze on his face. Before he could finish speaking, he turned around, hugged the half of the table, and wailed, "My five taels of silver!"
His heartbroken appearance made Lin Xi, who was standing at the entrance of the yamen, laugh. Although he didn't know why he had broken the table and chair and was now hugging the desk and wailing like a banshee.
However, it doesn't stop Lin Xi from filling in the blanks in his own mind.
I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Upon hearing the voice, Dou Weiyi and Qin Shensheng's eyes sharpened, and they simultaneously turned to stare at the entrance of the yamen, asking in unison, "Who's there?"
Gao Mengli's heart skipped a beat. She glared at Lin Xi, then pulled him inside confidently.
"Lord Dou, Master Qin, we came here on business, and as soon as we got to the door we saw Lord Dou looking like this, and we couldn't help but..."
It means we just arrived and haven't heard anything yet.
Upon seeing that it was these two people, the two immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
When Dou Wei saw her "golden thigh" coming over, she stopped crying and making a fuss.
He quickly got up from the ground and excitedly rubbed his hands together.
These two never visit the temple without a reason.
It's definitely a gift of money!
"What brings you here?!"
Gao Mengli quickly stepped forward, "Sir, we just want to apply for a 'starving to death' permit! We don't plan to rent a shop, we just want to rent a place on West Street and put a table there."
Upon hearing this, Dou Wei immediately perked up, "How long do you want to rent it?!"
Gao Mengli gestured for Lin Xi to take out a coin.
Lin Xi quickly took out the 540 coins from her bosom and placed them...
After looking around for a while, they still couldn't find a good table or chair. They had no choice but to take a few steps and place the chair in Dou Weiyi's hands. "Sir, it's on the west side of the street. It costs 45 coins a month. Let's rent it for a year first."
Here are 550 coins, please keep them safe! Ten of them are for the safekeeping of the contract.
Dou Weiyi happily accepted the document and instructed Qin Shen Shen, who was standing beside her, "Qin Shen Shen, quickly write the contract for them!"
Looking at the mess on the ground, Qin Shen resignedly took out paper and a brush, squatted down and began to write.
Dou Weiyi was thinking about the four people in her family; three of them were working at Lin's snack stall!
So I wanted to ask about the new stall.
"By the way, is your 'Starving to Death' stall hiring?!"
Looking at Dou Weiyi's overly enthusiastic attitude, Gao Mengli had a bad feeling. "Um, no, we want to buy people to do it."
Upon hearing this, Dou Wei laughed even harder, "Buying people???! How about I recommend someone to you???"
