Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.
Chapter 104 Extortion
Qian Duofu's shop was on that once bustling street.
Zhiweixuan is located on that originally quiet street, and at the very back.
The two streets are connected, but the differences are quite obvious.
But recently, this difference has been completely reversed.
"No, I have to go and check it out, to find out more about this Zhiweixuan."
Qian Duofu dragged his obese body to Zhiweixuan. Looking around, he was amazed to see a huge crowd, so large that people were practically shoulder to shoulder.
"What's so great about Zhiweixuan? It even smells awful!"
Qian Duofu frowned and stared for a while, but before he could do anything, he saw Shen Qing return to the shop and lock the door in a few quick movements.
"Madam Shen, you must make plenty of stinky tofu tomorrow!"
"And pickled radishes! Make plenty of pickled radishes, they're so refreshing!"
"Madam Shen, I'll be back tomorrow!"
"..."
The diners all looked reluctant to leave.
Reluctant to part?
Qian Duofu's eyes widened; it was the first time he had ever seen such reluctance in a diner's eyes.
When he opened his restaurant, he always greeted customers at the door, bowing and scraping as he served them.
But this Mrs. Shen is so calm. It's only noon, and she's already closing up shop!
With so many diners, if the restaurant stays open until night, wouldn't all that money just be wasted?
Comparing yourself to others is truly infuriating!
In an instant, a surge of intense jealousy welled up in Qian Duofu's heart.
This is so unfair! Why is Zhiweixuan's business so good?
Heaven is truly blind; his restaurant is so good and affordable.
......
It's a brand new day.
Today's purchase volume of stinky tofu has increased to 800 portions.
Of course, there are still only two hundred servings of pickled radish.
Shen Qing went to Zhiweixuan as usual.
"Madam Shen, I want six servings of stinky tofu and two servings of pickled radish!!" Sun Yun was at the front of the line.
He arrived before dawn.
I bought six portions of stinky tofu, three for myself and three for Mr. Han.
There's also pickled radish; he didn't get to eat it yesterday, so he'll definitely try it today.
Shen Qing prepared efficiently, his movements extremely practiced.
Soon, the six portions of stinky tofu that had been packaged were in Sun Yun's hands.
"Thank you so much, Madam Shen! You are my benefactor!"
Sun Yun, carrying the stinky tofu, bowed deeply to Shen Qing and then ran away.
He looked like he was in a hurry to see Han Tanzi.
Shen Qing chuckled to herself; this guy was quite straightforward, with a look of pure joy on his face as he successfully met his idol.
Indeed, food can sometimes play an unexpected role.
Thinking of this, Shen Qing felt even better, and her subordinates made the stinky tofu even faster.
The surrounding area was filled with either the sounds of diners praising and marveling at their food, or the sounds of people eating.
A happy and joyful atmosphere.
Suddenly, a piercing sound rang out:
"Oh dear, girl, what's wrong? What happened to you? Wake up!!"
"My dear daughter! It's all because she ate stinky tofu! Everyone come and see! Stinky tofu has made her sick! My daughter is foaming at the mouth!!"
"You can't eat the stinky tofu at Zhiweixuan! It'll kill you!"
The sound was harsh and unpleasant, yet it instantly drew everyone's attention.
All eyes turned toward the source of the sound.
It was a woman, disheveled and dirty, dressed in coarse cloth, her face deeply lined. Beside her lay a little girl, her eyes closed, her face pale, looking extremely weak.
On the ground next to it lay stinky tofu, smashed to pieces. The tender white core had been spilled out, and red oil trickled out from the oil paper wrapping and onto the ground.
"This stinky tofu was made with spoiled tofu; it made my kids sick!"
"Think about it carefully, everyone. How could food possibly smell bad? The ingredients must be spoiled."
"This woman is wicked; everyone, please don't eat her!"
The woman on the ground kept talking, wiping away tears and cursing, behaving like a shrew.
Shen Qing frowned; she had never expected to encounter something like this.
There were even cases of staged accidents in ancient times!
She just wanted to cook good food, but she never expected that someone would deliberately cause trouble for her.
Yes, Shen Qing immediately realized that the other party was trying to extort money and cause trouble, not for any other reason than her absolute confidence in the food she made.
You should know that she is very professional and serious when it comes to making food.
This is such a hassle; heaven knows she just wanted to make simple, delicious food.
The diners were stunned for a moment, then immediately began to defend him.
"Don't talk nonsense, we're all perfectly fine. If your child is sick, take him to the doctor right away. Don't waste time talking nonsense here."
"Yes, stinky tofu is so delicious, how could it possibly kill someone? Don't even think about trying to extort money from Madam Shen, we won't agree to it!"
"Yes, don't talk nonsense, don't try to ruin Zhiweixuan's reputation!"
"..."
The woman was clearly taken aback by this situation; her eyes glazed over, she gritted her teeth, and then looked up again, saying:
"Don't you believe me? My daughter has been eating this every day lately, and that's why she got sick. You're fine now because you're not eating enough. If you keep eating this for a few more days, you'll end up like my daughter!"
"I don't care, Zhiweixuan has to compensate me! They have to pay me back the money, the time I wasted, and my daughter's medical expenses!"
The woman held the little girl and started shouting incoherently; she was clearly trying to cause trouble.
Just then, the little girl suddenly shuddered, her body began to convulse, and white foam came out of her mouth, which was quite frightening.
The diners were shocked and no one dared to speak for a moment.
The woman said anxiously, "Look at my daughter, she's in this state, and you're still protecting Zhiweixuan? Don't you have any humanity?!"
Shen Qing immediately sensed something was wrong. No matter what, the girl looked really bad, as if she might die at any moment.
She quickly called out, "Is there a doctor here? Let's take a look at the little girl first!"
Human life is of paramount importance; no matter the circumstances, life is the most precious thing.
As for other things, they can be put aside for now; saving lives is the most important thing.
"A doctor? Is there a doctor?"
"Who is the doctor?"
"I know a clinic nearby, I'll go find a doctor!"
"..."
Once reminded, everyone realized what was happening. At heart, they were all kind-hearted. Although they didn't have a good impression of the woman, they couldn't just stand by and watch this young life slip away.
Not long after, a customer dragged the doctor over.
"Make way, make way, let this old man have a look."
The woman was stunned; things did not go as she had expected at all.
What's wrong with the owner of Zhiweixuan? Shouldn't we argue with her?
Why are we joining forces with everyone to rescue that wretched girl?
