Sui and Tang Dynasties: Awakening the Supreme Skills at the Beginning
Chapter 48 Obstruction in Buying Food
At dawn the next day, Li Zhen woke up and felt full of spiritual energy. Unknowingly, his spiritual power broke through the foundation-building period and successfully awakened the ability to predict the future, enlighten all things and wield swords.
After having breakfast in the cafeteria, Li Zhen led everyone to Li’s Winery.
From a distance, I saw many people coming in and out of Li’s Winery, including some government officials.
Everyone was surprised and quickened their pace. When they arrived in the courtyard, they were shocked.
In front of the door, Li Zhiyong and several guys who were on duty last night were kneeling there with their chests bare, as if waiting for Li Zhen's decision.
Seeing Li Zhen coming, Li Zhiyong crawled a few steps on his knees, crawled in front of Li Zhen, and cried loudly: "Boss, someone robbed our workshop last night. I'm sorry, it's all my fault!"
After saying this, he burst into tears.
"What's going on? Speak slowly and clearly!"
Li Zhen patted Li Zhiyong's shoulder soothingly and spoke kindly.
Li Zhiyong then told Li Zhen in detail about his experience last night. After that, he slapped himself in the face and kept saying that he was useless and asked Li Zhen to punish him.
Li Zhen looked up at the burnt warehouse and frowned.
"Brother Zhiyong has suffered, get up quickly. This is not your fault, it is my inconsiderateness, plus the enemy is too cunning, no one could have expected that they would come back and strike back. It is not your fault, it has nothing to do with you, get up quickly!"
"boss……"
Li Zhiyong was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.
After such a big accident, the boss not only did not pursue responsibility but also took the responsibility on himself. It is really hard to find such a boss. I am very lucky to be able to work under such a boss.
From this moment on, everyone present decided in their hearts that they would continue to follow Li Zhen.
At this time, Zhao, the head constable of the Chang'an County Government, came to Li Zhen and bowed to him, "Mr. Li, have you offended anyone recently?"
"Yes, we offended the Cui family." Li Zhen nodded.
Captain Zhao frowned. The Qinghe Cui family was a large and powerful family and it would be difficult to investigate.
He couldn't help but say: "The Qinghe Cui family has a strong background. We can't convict them based on a mere guess. We need definite evidence..."
"Okay, thank you, Captain Zhao. I will inform you as soon as I have any news."
Li Zhen bowed.
"Well, that's all we can do for now! Goodbye!"
Captain Zhao waved his hand and said to the other officers, "Disband!"
The rest of the officers quickly gathered together and followed Captain Zhao outside.
After the officials left, Li Zhen counted the losses.
The warehouse and all the grain were burned down, but fortunately the wine in the fermentation tank was not damaged.
Looking at the ruins in front of them, everyone felt depressed.
Li Mantun walked up to Li Zhen, patted his shoulder, sighed, and said nothing.
Is that the end of it? Is this the end of the winery?
Do not!
What's this little difficulty?
It’s just the first step in a long journey. Only with a strong opponent can you become stronger.
Thinking of this, Li Zhen walked in front of the crowd and spoke loudly.
"Yes, we cannot be defeated by difficulties. Our struggle with the Cui family has just begun."
Li Dahai, Wang Qingshan and others walked up to Li Zhen and said with gritted teeth: "Brother Zhen, boss, whatever you say, we will listen to you!"
"Yes, Zhen'er is right. We can't just let it go like this! At worst we can start over again!"
Li Mantun stood behind Li Zhen and supported him firmly.
"No one can stop my determination to brew wine. Second uncle, tear down this warehouse and build a new one. I will take a few people to buy some grain."
Li Zhen said firmly.
"Okay, let's do it like this!"
Li Zhen stood in the middle of the yard, and everyone's eyes followed him closely, their eyes full of determination and tenacity.
Li Zhen selected ten people, took three carriages, and headed towards the West Market.
Li Mantun took the rest of the people and began to dismantle the burned old warehouse and rebuild a new one.
"Boss! Boss! Take me with you when you go to buy food. I know the way to buy food!"
When Li Zhiyong saw that Li Zhen did not choose him, he ran over anxiously and shouted loudly.
"Brother Zhiyong, you are injured, you should take the time to recover."
Li Zhen looked at Li Zhiyong and said softly.
"This is just a minor injury. When I was in the army, I never flinched even when I was seriously injured. Boss, just take me with you!"
As Li Zhiyong spoke, he knelt down on the ground in front of Li Zhen with a plop.
"Brother Zhiyong, get up quickly. I've said before that kneeling is not accepted here. I don't like it."
Li Zhen said with a deliberately stern face.
"I won't get up unless the boss agrees to my request!"
Li Zhiyong even had a fight with Li Zhen.
Li Zhen smiled bitterly, "Get up!"
"Thank you boss!"
Li Zhiyong jumped three feet high with joy, like a child who had just received a reward.
On the opposite side, which they could not see, in a room on the second floor of a teahouse, Cui Hun's housekeeper Liu Zhiming was staring at the winery below, with a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.
"Humph! You country bumpkin, you didn't repent after this disaster and even wanted to continue making wine. If I let you buy a grain of rice, I'll write my name upside down."
Then he waved his hand, called a man over, whispered a few words in the man's ear, and the man left.
Li Zhen and others came to a grain shop in the West Market and were about to step in.
At this time, a man came out of the grain shop, bowed to Li Zhen, and spoke politely.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Li Zhen?"
"Exactly!"
Li Zhen also bowed, looking puzzled. Could it be that my name has become known to everyone?
"May I ask who you are, brother?"
"I am the shopkeeper of this store."
The man replied.
"Nice to meet you!"
Li Zhen replied, looking suspicious.
"May I ask if Master Li wants to buy some food?"
When everyone heard this, they were secretly happy, thinking that buying food would be extremely smooth this time.
"Exactly!"
Li Zhen bowed and replied with a smile.
Unexpectedly, the man took a step forward, put his arm around Li Zhen's shoulders, and spoke in a low voice.
"Mr. Li, please spare me a moment to talk."
Usually there is a routine for such situations, and Li Zhen approached the man calmly.
Everyone behind him was delighted.
"Mr. Li, you can come to my shop to buy food. It is a blessing I have cultivated in my previous life..."
The man looked troubled.
"and then?"
Li Zhen asked calmly.
"I think Mr. Li also knows it."
The man coughed, paused, turned his head and looked around, and seeing that no one nearby noticed them, he continued.
"But I can't sell you a grain of food today, otherwise my shop will be closed!"
"Because of the Cui family?"
Li Zhen asked expressionlessly.
"Yes, Master Li, please forgive me. I am really sorry for what happened today. After this storm is over, I will come to your house to apologize. Please bear with me, Master Li!"
As he spoke, the man bowed to Li Zhen.
Now that things have come to this, how could Li Zhen not understand?
It must be the Cui family who spoke again. Li Zhen was so powerful that the grain shop owner did not dare to offend either side, so he had to resort to this last resort.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Li Zhen waved his hand.
"Then I would like to thank Master Li for his generosity."
The man bowed to Li Zhen again.
"Next one!"
Li Zhen shouted coldly.
