Just when he thought he was going to fail, he saw Xiao Ran and immediately had an idea in his mind, planning to start with this waste.

"Master Xiao, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you just came back from the gate of hell. I'm really happy and congratulated."

Xiao Ran took a closer look and naturally recognized the guy in front of him. His name was Chen Shaojie. He was the head catcher in the local government. He had been hanging out in casinos before and had defrauded Xiao Ran of a lot of money.

"Chen Captou, I heard about you just now, and I wanted to come and see you. Fortunately, I have a good father-in-law, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see me now."

When Chen Captou saw the pieces of fine silk and satin being packed into boxes, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Master Xiao, have you finished the thousand pieces of silk and satin? Tomorrow is the prefect's birthday banquet. If If we don’t finish it, you won’t be able to escape.”

"Chen Captou, thank you for your trouble. We have done everything today. Naturally, we cannot let anything go wrong with the prefect's birthday banquet."

Hearing this, Chen Shaojie's eyes lit up, because he had discovered the clues, and he couldn't wait to ask: "I remember you were still worried about the raw materials yesterday? Why are you finishing it today?"

"This was all my father-in-law's idea. He sent two groups of people to Chizhou. It was me on the surface, but secretly the group was the real acquirer."

Seeing Chen Shaojie frowning, Xiao Ran immediately put something in his hand and said with a bright smile: "Captain Chen, it's not like you don't know how many things have happened since the Chu family took this order. People are watching us and causing trouble behind our backs, just in case."

After saying that, Capt. Chen looked at the money in his hand and asked in surprise: "Master Xiao, what are you..."

"Chen Captou, don't you think you and your brothers are tired from this early morning? It just so happens that I have survived the disaster today, so it's appropriate for me to treat you all to a cup of tea."

Seeing how sensible Xiao Ran was, Chen Shaojie smiled and said, "Master Xiao, I haven't seen you in the past few days. I didn't expect you to have grown up so much. Besides, you are more sensible than your father-in-law."

After that, Chen Shaojie whistled with satisfaction and led the people away.

But one wave came after another. Not long after Chen Shaojie left, Chu Tianshu came here with a group of people, and this group of people were all members of the local silk industry.

Although they were nominally here to celebrate Xiao Ran's escape from the bandits' den, looking at the angry expressions on their faces, one could tell that they were here to call for punishment.

Mr. Chu couldn't help but be a little surprised at such a battle, but he still calmed down and said with a smile: "Everyone, I didn't expect that my uncle is really popular with everyone. Since they are all here to congratulate, then everyone Just finish your meal and then leave.”

"Brother, stop pretending, we are here to get back what belongs to us."

At this moment, Mr. Chu frowned and asked in confusion: "Third brother, what are you talking about? I don't owe you anything, right?"

Chu Tianshu looked at the fake smile on Mr. Chu's face and snorted coldly: "Last night, the bandits not only took away gold and silver jewelry, but also took away some raw materials for silk and satin. I'm afraid those raw materials are here with you. , or maybe it has been made into silk by you."

Seeing what he said, Mr. Chu spread his hands and said with an innocent face: "Third brother, there should be a limit to your slandering people, right? My house was robbed last night, not to mention that my uncle was kidnapped."

Chu Tianshu naturally couldn't believe what Mr. Chu said.

"Brother, can you explain to me where the raw materials for these thousand pieces of silk come from?"

"We purchased it from Chizhou."

But this reason was obviously unconvincing, and everyone couldn't help but sneered.

"If you don't believe it, you can check whether it is your raw material. If it is, you can take it away by yourself." Xiao Ran said suddenly.

Just when Mr. Chu was about to stop him, he saw Xiao Ran's look and immediately understood.

The moment Chu Tianshu saw Xiao Ran, he subconsciously took a step back because the scene when he was beaten by him was still vivid in his mind.

However, if this guy dares to say that, don't blame them for being rude.

In this way, these people began to search roughly, but after searching for a long time, they found that there were no raw materials of their own.

Xiao Ran, who was on the side, reminded with a smile on his face: "Everyone, I didn't remind you that this is what you need for the magistrate's birthday banquet tomorrow. If you destroy it, you will be blamed by then. The gain outweighs the loss.”

When some people heard these words, they stopped what they were doing. Mr. Chu next to him also took the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief, because Xiao Ran must have thought of this situation and had a plan to deal with it.

As for those silks and satins, Xiao Ran had already moved them away.

At the same time, a lot of people had gathered outside the door of the Chu family. These people were the people Chu Yanhong asked Laifu to find to watch. Soon, Laifu in the crowd shouted loudly: "These guys are really... , everything is blamed on the Chu family, the Chu family is really pitiful."

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and soon the crowd began to loudly protest for the Chu family. When Chu Tianshu and others saw that things had developed like this, they immediately left in despair.

Looking at Chu Tianshu and others walking away, Mr. Chu did not forget to tease: "Don't leave, everyone. The food has been prepared for you. Why don't you stay and eat?"

Xiao Ran did a great job in what happened today, which made Mr. Chu very happy and made the Chu family feel proud and proud.

At the same time, Chu Tianshu, who was walking home, suddenly found that passers-by were laughing at him, and it was a mocking smile.

He was puzzled until he saw a crowd not far away, looking at a notice, and they looked at him from time to time with mocking expressions.

Chu Tianshu quickly stepped forward to check. When a child saw Chu Tianshu, he clapped his hands happily and shouted: "The person who peed his pants is here!"

When he heard this, his expression changed and he squeezed through the crowd. Only then did he realize that it was written about him peeing his pants last night. He became angry and tore the notice into pieces.

But he turned around and found that such notices were everywhere, and no one in Jiangzhou City knew about his affairs. At this moment, he was so ashamed that he had to leave quickly, planning to wait until the limelight passed before showing his face.

This was also Xiao Ran's idea. When Mr. Chu at the dinner table heard that Xiao Ran had arranged this matter, he laughed so much that the food in his mouth spurted out.

The birthday banquet of Su Yun, the prefect of Jiangzhou, is about to begin, which is another new test.
