Shen Ningning was curious: "Grandpa Village Chief, don't worry, speak slowly."

The old village chief wiped off the hot sweat from his forehead, his face was flushed red by the bright sun, full of anxiety.

"A while ago, Master Quan, a wealthy businessman in the city, had a birthday party. He originally ordered about [-] catties of loquat candy from our village, and the deposit was also paid."

"We sent the finished samples to Quanfu and showed him to him. He was quite satisfied, but now I don't know who heard the slander, saying that you have been in court, and our candy is unlucky."

"Not only do we have to refund the deposit, but they also come to the village in a while, saying that we have made a mistake in concealing it, and waiting for us to make an apology!"

Jiang Zhi, who was standing beside Shen Ningning, immediately became angry when she heard the words.

"This old man, what nonsense are you talking about? Did he find out clearly that Sister Ningning is going to the government to identify other sinners!"

As she said that, she rolled up her sleeves: "Quan Fu, right? I'll go find him."

Shen Ningning stretched out his small hand to hold her.

That pair of eyes as clear as snow looked at the old village chief: "Grandpa village chief, when the whole government asked you to order candy, did you sign a document?"

"This..." The old village chief hesitated to speak.

He sighed: "Master Quan is a well-known wealthy businessman in the capital. He pays attention to keeping his word in business, so I didn't ask him to make a written statement with us."

Shen Ningning shook her head silently, her milky voice was full of helplessness: "I've said it many times, it can save you a lot of trouble in the future."

"Ningning, what do you think we should do now? They asked for the money back, so I don't have any more! I have already distributed the deposit money to every household in the village."

"How much deposit did they give?"

"50 taels."

Shen Ningning exhaled with pink lips.

She used to have five or six hundred silver deposits, but recently, she spent a lot of money to buy things in the village house for Jiang Zhi, and to settle for Wu Zuchang's funeral.

There are more than 100 taels left on him.

The little guy's watery black eyes turned and he had an idea.

"Brother Jiang, come here with your ear." Shen Ningning stood on tiptoe and confessed a few words in a low voice.

Jiang Zhi frowned slowly: "Him?"

The little guy nodded earnestly. Those watery eyes were round and bright, making it hard to refuse.

"Brother Jiang, I can't leave, so I can only ask you."

"Okay then..." Jiang Zhi sighed, turned around and rode on the horse Shen Ningning raised, and left the village.

Watching her riding Juechen, the old village head wondered: "Ningning, have you thought of a solution?"

"Thinking about it, they don't want sugar anymore, just refund the money, but they can't let them take the money too easily, they need to put some pressure on it!"

As the little guy said, he smiled sweetly, his eyes were black and sparkling, looking at him with a round, white and delicate face, he was very soft and cute.

Soon.

A dark group of people came from the entrance of the village.

A soft sedan chair landed on the ground, and the rest of the servants were all big and three thick, holding sticks.

This is obviously not a guest talking about things politely.

I'm afraid, if the old village head doesn't agree, they will do it!

The sedan chair curtain was lifted, and the wealthy businessman, Mr. Quan, was over sixty years old, with narrow eyes, mustache, capable and shrewd.

He glanced at the housing construction in Xiangyun Village, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

How could this group of impoverished villagers decorate their houses like this?
But soon, his gaze became disdainful again.

The servant stepped forward and yelled: "Where are you? Where did you die? Master Quan is here, and if you haven't come out to greet him, pay back the money!"

There is no one on the village road, and the doors and windows of every house are closed.

At this moment, a girl humming a song came bouncing up from the end of the village road.

Shen Ningning was wearing a small blue and white dress with a beautiful gold-winged butterfly on her head. She didn't look like a villager at first glance.

Master Quan is a businessman and knows how to watch people place orders.

Seeing Shen Ningning, he cupped his hands and said in a polite tone, "Little girl, do you know where the villagers of Xiangyun Village have gone?"

The little guy raised his head, blinking his big watery eyes.

"What are you looking for from the villagers?"

"I'll ask them to refund the money! This group of villagers are cunning and arrogant, and they actually concealed the fact that someone in the village has gone to court. I hate these things the most, so I simply don't want them."

"Have you understood what happened?" the little guy asked back.

Master Quan put his hands behind his back, nonchalantly: "My friend, Master Ba, is very familiar with this villager. He told me himself. Could it be wrong?"

It turned out that Ba Deshun was behind the scenes!
Shen Ningning frowned.

Ever since Deng Fugui married Wang Qiaoer to the Ba family, no news came out.

"But the deposit has been paid. According to the rules of the business, if the buyer goes back on his word, the money should not be refunded." Shen Ningning lashed her fan with long eyelashes.

Master Quan snorted coldly: "Who can prove it's the deposit? I also want to say that it was the old village head, Deng Changshou, who cheated me out of my money!"

The little guy's heart turned cold when he heard it.

Master Quan also knew that the old village head and the others had no written evidence, so they turned the truth upside down, and the villagers didn't dare to do anything to him.

Shen Ningning's tone was faint: "You must pay attention to integrity when doing business. Master Quan, if you do this, how can the business go long?"

Master Quan was enraged, and was about to refute, when suddenly, he stared at Shen Ningning, his eyes became gloomy for an instant.

"How do you know so clearly, and speak plausibly for these villagers? Could it be that you are..."

His voice just fell.

There was a sound of clanging horseshoes at the entrance of the village, accompanied by the sound of beating gongs and drums, and they entered the village lively.

Everyone turned their heads and saw groups of soldiers with silver armor and brown horses escorting four mahogany boxes into the village in a mighty manner.

Jiang Zhi walked in front, beating gongs and drums.

When she was in front of Shen Ningning, she cupped her hands and said congratulations: "The little one sees the village owner of Funing."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and opened a carved box.

As soon as the lid is opened, under the sunlight, there are dazzling jewelry of various colors.

Not to mention Master Quan, even Shen Ningning himself was almost dazzled.

"Lord?!" Master Quan's eyes widened, thinking he had heard wrong.

Jiang Zhi squinted at him: "What's the matter? The emperor proclaimed it personally, and the imperial decree was issued ten days ago. You don't know, do you?"

Master Quan hesitated to speak, his eyes turned to Shen Ningning, and his expression changed accordingly.

Jiang Zhi sneered: "That's right, ordinary people, how would they know that there is a village owner in Xiangyun Village?"

"Where did you come from? Get out of the way quickly, don't delay us from sending rewards to the village lord!"

As she spoke, she secretly winked at Shen Ningning.

The little guy chuckled.

Master Quan couldn't believe it: "That old village head of yours didn't say that the one who went to court was the village owner!"

"You didn't ask either." The old village head led the villagers and walked from the end of the village road.

Shen Ningning nodded: "Master Quan, whoever told you this sentence, you can go to him. You said you want to refund the sugar, we can refund it, but from now on, Xiangyun Village will no longer do your business."

The little guy was full of momentum, and looked at the old village chief: "Give him back the 50 taels."

The silver was prepared by her long ago.

Without further ado, the old village head stepped forward and handed over the money.

Now it's Master Quan's turn not to pick it up.

If there is really a village owner in Xiangyun Village, then this loquat candy will not only be non-refundable, but you will have to keep buying it!

"Master, you don't remember the faults of villains, you..." Master Quan changed his domineering expression just now, and his smile became flattering.
