Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Wu Feng looked over and saw that Shi Si and Shi Wu's faces were full of admiration and respect. He Gui had a smile on his lips and was obviously very happy as well.

"This is both dignified and united. Gu Dashi, a gambler and gangster, can say something so reasonable? Maybe he asked someone to replace him with a new one."

The clouds, the rocks, the fire, are silent.

"Am I wrong? Why aren't you talking?" Wu Feng was at a loss.

"I'll go feed the horses." Wu Yan got up and left.

Wuhuo looked away and remained silent.

"Ah? What do you mean?" Wu Feng was confused. "Ayun, say something!"

Wu Yun's eyes were complicated: "Did you just realize it?"

"What did you just find out?" Wu Feng repeated, and then a strong shock suddenly surged on his face: "Gu Dashi is a fake!"

Wu Huo lowered his head and said nothing, while Wu Yun looked at him blankly.

"We must report this to the master immediately!" Wu Feng panicked. "When was he replaced? Was it Prince Yin who did this? So this is why they said Gu Dashi colluded with Prince Yin?!"

Wu Huo said faintly: "Before, Wu Yun said that you only work but don't use your brain, and I argued for you, alas..."

"No, the master also knows?" Wu Feng grabbed Wu Yun's collar: "When did the master know? Where did Gu Dashi go? The master's arrangement this time is for..."

"Shut up." Wu Yun said, "The master knew it from the beginning. Although he didn't say it explicitly, it's so obvious, how could you not see it at all?"

"I've been monitoring him for so long, and he has always been like this!" Wu Feng whispered, "So this is what the master wants us to investigate..."

Wu Feng pondered for a while, then suddenly covered his mouth in fear.

Wuyun:?

"Since this Gu Dashi is a fake, why does the master keep calling him dad?" Wu Feng said in horror, "Could it be that... the master likes to be taken advantage of?"

Wuyun & Wuhuo: ...Is this what you are focusing on? !

"Take advantage?" Gu Xu asked faintly.

Wu Feng's blood ran cold with fright.

He turned around and stammered, "Master... Master."

"What are you talking about?" Gu Xu looked cold.

"He..." Wu Yun wanted to explain for Wu Feng, but Wu Feng seemed to suddenly react and approached Gu Xu and asked mysteriously and anxiously: "Whose money did Gu Dashi spend to buy those people? Master, don't be fooled by him!"

Gu Xu: ...

Wuyun and Wuhuo couldn't bear to watch any longer.

……

At night, everyone found a place to make a fire and eat.

The child Chai Gui ate a hot pancake and a small bowl of rabbit meat soup. After a full meal, he was not so scared of the gang. The brother named Dashi sounded familiar, but his face was unfamiliar. Although he knew that this was the same person as "Mr. Li", his fear was still reduced.

The elder brother named Xiao Xu was much harder to get along with, and seemed to dislike him. Chai Gui had been working as a servant since he was a child, and he was also good at observing people's expressions, so he basically didn't get close to Gu Xu and Gu Yue.

He Gui, on the other hand, seemed to have a real connection with him, and the two of them quickly became close.

Coming out of Guozhou Prefecture and heading east, the new route no longer goes along Luoyang, but goes directly to Liuli Town.

The only downside to life in ancient times was that transportation was so slow.

This trip to Tongshan, plus the time spent on changing the route to Guozhou Prefecture, took nearly a month. It was already summer, and the wheat in the fields had already gone through a series of processes such as filling, ripening, and harvesting. It was said that there were several snowfalls in the winter before Gu Yue came here, and the crops this season had a good harvest.

When he returned to Liuli Town, he saw the head of the village had sent someone to post a notice saying that the crops were bumper this summer and the grain harvested in areas south of Luoyang was enough to last half a year. The emperor was very pleased and issued a special amnesty for the whole country.

Amnesty was not a common grace in Northern Qin. One reason was that the country was stable and there were not many people in prison; the other was that the population continued to rise, so there was no need to sacrifice stability in exchange for labor.

But all this has nothing to do with Gu Yue's family.

Instead of rushing into the town, Gu Yue sent Shi San and Wu Feng to investigate first to see if there was anyone with strange whereabouts watching his house.

Not long after, the two of them came to report that the courtyard they rented was occupied by Lu Junmei's family, and all those who were suspected to be the prince's spies had been evacuated. The town was relatively safe.

It seems that Su Yingjian has returned to Luoyang and has stopped the Su family's actions.

After feeling relieved, they drove into the town and returned home. Lu Junmei was naturally happy to see them. Gu Yue made arrangements and asked Shi Si, Shi Wu and the child Chai Gui to learn how to make fried chicken from Lu Junmei's family after a day of rest. He Gui took over the messy account book that Gu Yue had remembered.

A small yard was occupied by Lu Junmei's family, three employees and one farmer.

Without any time to rest, Gu Yue first wrote a letter to contact the previous owner of the chicken farm, and then took the three new employees to visit the Gu family business.

"…This is the kitchen. Each pot of oil can be used for about seven days before it needs to be replaced. This is the countertop for placing meat. The knives and cutting boards used for meat and other ingredients must be separated and cannot be mixed…This is the cage for live chickens. Kill the chickens in the corner over there. No matter what you do, you must wash your hands after touching the ingredients. Never touch food with dirty hands! If you are caught, the cost of all the ingredients for today will be deducted from your salary, so you must supervise each other."

Gu Yue talked a lot.

He would pay some wages to these employees who signed the death contract, including Shi San. If they performed well in the long term and gained Gu Yue's trust, Gu Yue would also return the contract to them and help them get rid of their status.

But now... Sorry, the situation is quite serious and he must be more cautious.

I have been away for nearly a month. Although the fried chicken business has stopped due to raw material problems, the stewed food is still being made as usual. When I just came back yesterday, Hele sent someone to return the stew pot and gave him 10% of the income during this period as a reputation fee.

The marinade was served in a huge casserole. There was also freshly marinated pork belly in it. Gu Yue fished out some and shared it with three employees and the drooling kid Chai Gui.

"It's delicious." Shi Wu smiled and ate it carefully, taking small bites at a time.

Chai Gui's mouth was full of food and he could only nod, unable to speak.

"Hmm..." He Gui's expression was different. He looked up and said, "Boss, you are from Luoyang?"

Gu Yue was curious about why he asked this: "No, why do you say that?"

He Gui frowned slightly: "Where did you get this stewed food recipe? Although I don't know much about gourmet food, the taste of this stewed food is very similar to that of a shop in Beijing called Golden Duck House."

"Golden Duck House? I've never heard of it." Gu Yue became alert.

"It's a famous old brand in the capital. When I was at General Ye's mansion in the northwest, someone brought this braised food from the capital as a gift. The general and his wife didn't like it very much, so they gave it to the servants." He Gui explained.
