After I was spurned, the champion husband exploded

Chapter 77 Protection Fee

Su Yu has been raised for five days, and her energy has been restored. She doesn't go out of the yard, just stays at home. There are a lot of things at home, but now her parents don't let her do anything, which makes Su Yu very happy. Annoyed.I didn't have any free time in the previous day, so I was really not used to being free all of a sudden.Now it's about taking medicine. She wasn't afraid of taking medicine before, but she didn't expect Chinese medicine to be so bitter, and she couldn't do it without drinking it.

After that, Su Yu found something for herself to do, which was to go to the study to practice calligraphy. In ancient times, she hadn't practiced calligraphy well, and her hands were a little rough.

When Su Sheng came back, he saw Su Yu who was practicing calligraphy in the study, and when he saw the handwriting she wrote, he suddenly felt cold.Practicing casually is better than what he has practiced for so long. Now Su Sheng really doubts whether they are brothers and sisters. Why do they have different brains, but he quickly dismissed this idea.

"Brother, what have you learned in ethnology today?"

"Father and mother said, don't make you sad these days, after you are detoxified, I will make up for you slowly."

Su Yu pursed her mouth, completely unhappy, knowing that her parents were doing it for her own good, so she had to leave the house, and she couldn't learn well here.

Su Yu didn't see that Su Sheng behind him heaved a sigh of relief, feeling as if the mountain that was pressing on him had been removed, and his whole body felt comfortable.

Yu Zheng didn't go to Su's house for the past few days, but he was a little unaccustomed to it. He asked Qinglin to inquire about the situation at Su's house. Knowing that Su Yu was fine, he felt at ease.

"Master, Uncle Yu said that there is a medicine in the antidote that is extremely difficult to find, and he doesn't have it."

"You ask our people to find the medicine. Within a month, we must find the medicine no matter what, and it will cost as much money as possible."

Qinglin knew this was the result and didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Yes, master."

"Also, send someone to find out who poisoned Su Yu."

"Master, our people can't make any big moves right now. We're going to investigate Miss Su's poisoning. If they find out, all these years of hard work will be in vain."

Yu Zheng thought about it.

"That's all, this matter is not urgent. We can check it later."

"Yes, master."

When Qinglin came out of the house, Yu Zheng took out a scroll from a side cabinet and opened it. On the painting was a woman in her twenties. The woman had gentle features and a round fan in her hand. She is not considered beautiful, but she has a gentle temperament and can be regarded as a beauty.

"mother."

Yu Zheng called out in a low voice, looked at it for a while, and silently rolled up the scroll, then put it back in the cabinet and locked it.

Li Quan only found out that the girl had been poisoned when he came back that night. He went to the master and his wife and swore the poison, and continued to visit the shop the next day.It's just that he looks much more stable than before. Now that the girl is poisoned, he must not let her worry about things in the shop.

The business in the shop is still as usual, there is not much business, except that the soap is still easy to sell.Li Quan was a little worried at first, but seeing that the family was cooking and eating, he immediately stopped worrying about the shop not being able to open. The girl must have had her own intention in doing this, and he just had to follow her orders.

This day Li Quan looked at the shop as usual, but two strong men came to the shop, and they didn't buy anything when they came.

"Boy, call out your boss."

"You two, our boss is not in the shop. If you have anything, you can tell me. I will convey it on your behalf."

"you?"

A strong man looked Li Quan up and down.

"It's okay to tell you. You go back and tell your boss that this street is under the management of our Lord Liang. We will come to collect protection fees tomorrow. Your shop is two taels a month. Let him prepare the money at the end of each month. Don't blame my brothers for not reminding you, if you can't get the money out."

The strong man glanced at the bacon hanging in the shop.

"Then use your bacon to pay for it."

"Don't worry, you two, I will definitely bring this to my boss."

As for whether to give money or not, Li Quan didn't say that, it's not up to him.

The two of them saw that Li Quan was quite honest, so they didn't embarrass him and left after speaking.

In the afternoon, Li Quan closed the shop early. When he got home, he originally wanted to go to the girl directly to tell her, but when he thought of the poison in the girl, he went to find the master.

"My lord, two men came to the shop today. They said they were Lord Liang's subordinates. They will come to collect the protection fee tomorrow. They will come to collect the protection fee, two taels of silver per month. Tomorrow they will come to collect it. Are we going to give the money or not? ?”

There are local snakes everywhere. In the past, when Su Laoer was carrying big bags at the dock, there were local snakes on the dock. If coolies like them wanted to work on the dock, they had to pay a hundred cash every month. It was time to report to the Yamen, and the Yamen people wouldn't care about it, but whether the two taels of money paid every month was too much, Su Laoer really couldn't make up his mind whether to pay it or not.

"Go down first, I'll tell you tomorrow morning."

"Yes, sir."

After Li Quan left, Su Er Er thought about it and went to Su Yu's house.

"Girl, are you asleep?"

"Father, I haven't slept yet."

Hearing her daughter's voice, Second Su pushed the door open and entered the room.

It's getting late today, and Dad came here at this hour, thinking there is something wrong.

"Father, what's wrong?"

Su Laoer touched his head.

"Girl, father originally wanted you to have a good rest, but there is something uncertain. Two men came to the shop today and said that they need to pay protection fees, and they will prepare two taels of silver tomorrow. It has to be paid every month, what’s the matter?”

From Su Yu's point of view, this matter is nothing at all.

"Father, you go to the town with Li Quan tomorrow, go to Taihe Building to find the shopkeeper Niu, and ask him if there is such a rule in the town, if there is, we will pay the money, if not, then there is no need to pay the money You just need to tell Shopkeeper Niu, and Shopkeeper Niu will take care of the rest for you."

Su Laoer thought, how could he forget the shopkeeper Niu.

"Father knows, girl, go to bed quickly, tomorrow father will go to town with Li Quan."

Early the next morning, Su Laoer followed Li Quan to the town and went directly to Taihe Building.

"Brother Su, why are you here today? Have your ducklings hatched yet?"

"It's out. My family has been raising it for a few days, so the villagers in the village will lead the family to raise it. I'm here because I want to ask Brother Niu something."

"What's the matter? Why are you so polite to me?"

"My family opened a small shop in the town. Someone came to the shop yesterday and told him to pay a protection fee of two taels of silver every month to a man named Master Liang. My family doesn't know much about the rules in this town, so I want to ask I asked you whether you should pay the protection fee? They said they would come to collect it today."

"It's your fault. You have to notify my brother when your family opens a shop in the town."

"It's just on the corner of East Street. It sells some of my own products. It's not a big business. I didn't say anything when I opened it."

"I'm fine right now, so I'll go over with you to have a look. You don't have to pay the protection fee. I'll settle this matter for you."

Su Lao Er thought to himself, what the daughter said was indeed correct, and this matter would not be a problem at all in front of Shopkeeper Niu.

Taihe Building is located on the main street of East Street, and Su's shop is located on the corner of East Street. The distance is really close, and it only took a few people a quarter of an hour to walk.

Li Quan stepped forward to open the shop, shopkeeper Niu wandered around the shop, and saw just a few things on display, thinking that the Su family was a bit overqualified for opening this shop.

"Brother Su, your shop only sells these few items?"
