Chapter 244 Unexpected Cases

When Qiao Tianhao carefully put Wanhong Fruit and Qinglan Fruit into the storage spirit ring, he told him that Wanhong Fruit needs to be taken immediately, and Qinglan Fruit must also be taken within half a month, Lin Dong waved his hand.

"Get out, go to the lobby to help me call Ma Chun over."

Qiao Tianhao nodded happily, and wanted to flatter him for a while, but remembered that the effect of Wanhongguo was constantly evaporating. He immediately gave up this opportunity to flatter and rushed into the lobby.

Lin Dong took the time to open the inn system and called out Qiao Tianhao's attributes. He saw that his loyalty had jumped from 83 to 87.

According to this increase, by the time Qiao Tianhao took the Wanhong Fruit, he would be able to reach 90. If not, he would be more than enough after eating the Green Blue Fruit.

One is done, and the other is left.

As for the guy at Linji Inn in Qiufeng City, Lin Dong is busy practicing all day long, and he will only meet everyone when he pays his wages at the end of the month. Then, he will meet him when he goes out and doesn’t understand him deeply. In my impression, Liu Hua is also very eloquent and diligent in his work. Among the guys, he should be of the upper-middle level.

After a moment, Qiao Tianhao ran out, greeted Lin Dong, and shot towards the door.

Soon, Ma Chun walked in quickly.

"Shopkeeper, are you looking for me?"

Lin Dong nodded and asked, "How is the inn business?"

Ma Chun smiled helplessly: "After maintaining eighty tables every day, after raising the price, I don't lose much, one or two hundred taels of silver every day. As for the business association... there is news every day that today, the candidates for the presidents of the supervisory offices of three or five counties will be determined, and tomorrow, the candidates for the presidents of the supervisory offices of five or six counties will be determined. At this rate, it seems that all will be out in five or six days. However, if it is really the same as the shopkeeper said, it is all conspiracy of Fenglin Restaurant, I guess the list will definitely not be announced..."

The irritability in his heart surged again, Lin Dong had no choice but to change the topic and asked, "How is Liu Hua doing these two days?"

"Liu Hua?" Ma Chun was stunned and shook his head, "I'm still the same as before. I always asked him to be responsible for the table on the southeast side of the second floor of the lobby. His hands and feet are quite quick and smart."

"Nothing else?" Lin Dong was also stunned. Liu Hua's loyalty declined, wasn't it because he was scolded by Ma Chun?

"I didn't go home a few days ago." Ma Chun shook his head, thought for a while, and then said, "I'm not very good in the past two days. I finish work every day and feel soft, but I'm still working hard when doing things."

Lin Dong was relieved, it should be because he had something to do at home.

As long as you know the reason, it will be easier. Lin Dong asked: "Have you ever asked him why he is in a bad mood?"

"I asked casually if I was uncomfortable yesterday." Ma Chun explained: "He just shook his head, and I didn't look into it. He just thought it was a little hot in summer and he might not be able to adapt."

Lin Dong nodded and waved, "I have something to ask him for. I will tell him later. You told me that he was not in good spirits and could not ask the reason. I was a little worried. I just mentioned it casually, so I asked him to ask."

Ma Chun opened his mouth to ask why, but hesitated for a moment, but chose to remain silent and nodded slowly.

After sitting in the backyard for a while, a young man in his early twenties, wearing a short coat of coarse cloth walked in quickly.

Stopped four or five meters away from the stone table, looking at Lin Dong alone, Liu Hua was a little nervous, went up and walked a few steps, and whispered: "Shopkeeper, Manager Ma said you are looking for me?"

"Sit down and say." Lin Dong signaled toward the opposite position.

Liu Hua nodded. After contacting him several times, he knew Lin Dong's easy-going temperament. He was a little nervous and calm. He quickly walked to the stone table and sat down cautiously.

"Just just now, Ma Chun chatted with me, and I asked him how the guys were." Lin Dong smiled and said, "He said that except for you being in a bad mood and some concerns that it was because the weather became hotter, the guys were all pretty good. Just so I was idle, so I asked him to come and ask you."

"Thank you, the shopkeeper and the manager Ma for your concern. I'm in good health." Liu Hua felt grateful in his heart and quickly stood up and said, "It's just that the family is a little troublesome. I'm not in a good mood these days. I may be a little confused when doing things. Please forgive me."

Lin Dong shook his head: "Ma Chun said that when you do things, you are the same as usual, you are not energetic after closing, so he is worried that you are forcing yourself."

Liu Hua was so grateful that he opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but Lin Dong waved his hand to stop him: "If you have any trouble at home, let me tell you, let me see if I can help."

"How dare you trouble the shopkeeper?" Liu Hua shook his head quickly: "The shopkeeper has a lot of things, it's just a little thing, so the shopkeeper is worried."

"Tell me," Lin Dong smiled and said, "You have been here in the inn for a long time. You don't know the attitude of the inn toward every diner. When diners and guests encounter troubles, the inn can help you. If you do things for me, you really have to have trouble, and you can ignore them."

"Shopkeeper, it's really nothing." Liu Hua waved his hand quickly and said, "It's just my brother who has had some trouble. It should have been much better these days."

"Your brother?" Lin Dong asked, "What trouble has he been in?"

"This..." Liu Hua hesitated.

"If you have something at home, you are not at ease in the inn. If you are not at ease, how can you do the inn well?" Lin Dong smiled and said, "Tell me, let's see."

Liu Hua nodded helplessly and explained: "Actually, there are many things that are too big. My brother was kicked out of the shop by the boss some time ago. He was in a bad mood. Last time I went home, I couldn't comfort me, so I felt a little upset."

"Hear the boss kicked out of the shop?" Lin Dong said in confusion: "What's the reason?"

"It was my brother who stole the silver from the shop." Liu Hua sighed heavily: "My brother is smart and diligent in his work and loyal to the shop. He would not do that kind of thing. According to me, it must be that other guys saw that the boss often praised him and were dissatisfied with him, so he joined forces to frame him. The boss was too, and he believed it and forced my brother to deduct a month's salary and even asked someone to beat him out. Until now, the injury on his body has not healed. He didn't listen to him no matter how he advised him, and he was full of thinking that he could prove his innocence. As a result, he was beaten back once at the shop."

Lin Dong was relieved. No matter whether this matter was true or false, Liu Hua must believe that his brother was innocent. In this way, it is reasonable that Liu Hua's loyalty will decline.

A boss usually praises his friend very much, but when something happens, he changes his face. Not only does he deduct his wages, but he also beats him out. Lin Dong believes that no matter who has such a thing happens to his brother, he will definitely put himself in favor and will be a little dissatisfied with his boss. At least, loyalty will definitely be affected to a certain extent.

This matter is not difficult to solve. Even if it is left alone, Lin Dong believes that Liu Hua will recover within a month or two. If you want to speed up the completion of the task, the easiest way is to help his brother stand up again.

After thinking about it, Lin Dong asked, "Are you sure the silver was not stolen by your brother?"

"Of course, of course," Liu Hua said without hesitation: "I know my brother best, and I am loyal to his boss. Every time I meet him, I will listen to him about how the boss values ​​him and how he plans to serve his boss. I lost more than a dozen taels of silver, although it is not enough, but it is not as jealous as my brother. What's more, no matter how stupid he is, he will not be so stupid that everyone will leave together, leaving him alone in the shop to steal the silver."

Lin Dong was stunned. At this moment, he also believed that Liu Hua was framed. As Liu Hua said, no matter how stupid he was, he would not be so stupid that everyone could prove that he was the only one in the shop and steal money.

However, in theory, the boss wouldn't believe it.

Lin Dong couldn't help asking, "Didn't your brother say this to his boss?"

"I said it, but what's the use of saying it?" Liu Hua said helplessly: "I remember clearly in the account book that everyone went to have dinner, leaving my brother alone is also a fact. After I came back, the boss did not settle the score. It was correct to say that it was not his, and there was a reason to explain it. It was more reasonable to say that it was his, otherwise the money would not fly away."

Lin Dong frowned slightly, but it was still a case of unsolved crime.

Liu Hua sighed again: "My brother has been in great danger for eight lifetimes, and I don't know how his companions did it."

"Can't he, his boss, settled the wrong account?" Lin Dong asked.

"One morning, there were only twenty-three taels of silver in total." Liu Hua said with a wry smile: "How could it be wrong?"

Lin Dong was silent and too lazy to think about the reason. Since Liu Hua is smart and diligent, the boss has praised him before. He should be a mate. He will never be worse than other mates when studying in the inn for a few days.

As long as he convinces the other party to come to the inn to be a mate, Liu Hua should have gone for this trouble. Even if he still has some psychological shadows on the boss, he can recover in three or five days.

After thinking about it, Lin Dong decided to say, "You go home and bring your brother here."

"The shopkeeper wants to see my brother?" Liu Hua said in surprise.

Lin Dong nodded and said, "Since you said so sure, I believe your brother is not the kind of unclean hands and feet. He is smart and diligent. Others don't want this guy. The more Lin Ji Inn, the better."

Liu Hua was overjoyed and kept thanking him.

"Okay, go and talk to Ma Chun and go back immediately." Lin Dong waved.

"Eh"

Liu Hua looked happy and turned around and wanted to leave. After only a few steps, he stopped again, and turned around with an ugly expression.

"Shopkeeper, my brother is now full of mind to prove his innocence to the boss. I'm afraid he won't come to our inn to be a mate."

Lin Dong was stunned. This was a troublesome thing.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Dong resolutely said: "No matter whether your brother wants to be a mate at Linji Inn or not, bring him here first for me to see. If I look like I'm framed and wronged, even if he doesn't want to be a mate at the inn, I can consider whether I can help him find out the whole story."

Liu Hua couldn't help but feel happy. The shopkeeper really wanted to be willing to help. With his relationship with Lord Li, he could make the yamen full of all his heart in just one sentence.

Among so many yamen runners, there are always a few who have strong ability to investigate cases. Their affairs of their brothers will definitely be revealed.

Even if the truth cannot be revealed, as long as you find a way to keep your brother in the inn for a few days, and when he gets familiar with other inns, he will probably not be able to drive away...
