Chapter 174: Teaching the Street Drifter a Lesson
However, now that it has come to this, the reputation of the Moon Viewing Tower will definitely not be ruined.
Liu Qi was about to leave with the card he had just received, but just as he reached the back alley, he was stopped by a man who looked like a guard.
Before he could open his mouth to call out, he was knocked unconscious by a palm strike.
Feng Er took a step forward and steadily caught Liu Qi who was about to fall to the ground. Then, with a stretch of his hands, he brought the unconscious Liu Qi into the Moon-Viewing Tower through the back door.
At this moment, in front of the Moon-Viewing Tower, Song Xin and others were distributing bamboo strips to the people in line, while the back door of the Moon-Viewing Tower was empty.
At this moment, Song Qingci was sitting in the innermost private room on the second floor of the Moon Viewing Tower.
Behind her, Feng Yi and Yin Xing stood respectfully.
There were several people fainted in front of her.
Including Liu Qi, who was knocked unconscious by Feng Er and brought in, and the street urchin who exposed her identity at the beginning.
There is also Li Cai, who has already left and has nothing to do with the Moon Viewing Tower anymore.
"Wake them up," Song Qingci ordered.
Feng Er was the closest, so naturally he was the one to do the job.
One of them kicked them in a very tricky position. The instant pain made the three of them sober up all of a sudden, and they screamed in pain that you could tell just by listening.
The private rooms on the second floor of the Moon Viewing Building were originally used to entertain distinguished guests. The sound insulation effect is very good.
What's more, there were many people and noise outside, and the shouting of the three of them did not alarm other people outside the private room.
Although the three of them were in pain, they at least woke up.
Li Cai was the first to react. He looked at Song Qingci with horror, "Madam, what do you mean?!"
Song Qingci just smiled without saying anything, picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip.
Feng Er stepped forward and slapped Li Cai, "You are not allowed to speak unless the young lady tells you to!"
Li Cai had always been the owner of the Moon Viewing Tower.
Whether it was meeting the First Madam Lou in the General's Mansion or making some connections outside, he had never been humiliated like this.
On the contrary, many people who depend on him for a living have to flatter him.
For a moment, his face turned red, and it was unclear whether he was angry or embarrassed.
Li Cai glared at Feng Er and cursed, "You..."
However, he had just said one word when Feng Er slapped him in the face, interrupting the rest of his words.
Liu Qi and Jie Liuzi, who were standing by, were shocked when they saw this scene.
Both of them knew Li Cai.
That street scoundrel took advantage of Li Cai more than once.
Li Cai just said two words and was slapped twice. How could they not be afraid?
Li Cai was slapped repeatedly by Feng Er and realized his situation.
This young lady really has no mercy at all. She just beats people without hesitation.
Out of desperation, Li Cai had to cover his face and stopped talking.
At this time, Song Qingci put down the teacup and looked at the street urchin.
Of these three people, he has the least to do, so let's start with him.
"How do you know I'm the owner of the Moon Viewing Tower?"
Song Qingci asked very directly.
She had asked Yinxing to find someone to invite this man. The little girl did a good job and didn't let him slip away.
"I don't know!" The street urchin was very frightened, but he didn't say the truth at all.
Song Qingci gave Feng Er a look. Feng Er took a step back and came to his side, then slapped him in the face without mercy.
"There is a price to pay for lying." Song Qingci's voice was cold and desolate.
But to the ears of the street urchins, it sounded like a death warrant.
He looked at Li Cai tremblingly, and then said as if he had made up his mind, "I didn't know you were the owner of the Moon Viewing Tower. It was Shopkeeper Li who told me that the lady who got off the carriage was the owner of the Moon Viewing Tower. I saw you getting off the carriage, so I shouted."
"I just took the money from Manager Li and said that in front of others. I didn't do anything else!"
"Shopkeeper Li gave me five taels of silver in total. I haven't spent it yet. It's all here. I'll give it back to you. Please let me go!" As he said this, the street slicker dug out two pieces of silver from the sole of his shoe. Judging from the size, it was about five taels.
He put the silver on the ground in front of him, then took several steps back, almost bumping into the door.
The street urchin sold Li Cai for all his money.
He just wants to get out of this situation now, and he can't care about anything else.
Song Qingci looked at him, took out a pill from his sleeve, threw it in front of him, and said, "Take this, and you can leave."
Although the street urchin had never seen the pill thrown by Song Qingci, he knew with his toes that it was definitely not a good thing. He took two steps back in fear and hit his body hard against the door panel with a "bang".
"My dear boss, I promise I won't say anything when I leave this door. Please don't kill me! Just treat me like a fart!" The street urchin's voice was trembling with fear.
"You can say whatever you want, as long as you can afford the price." Song Qingci was not afraid of such a street urchin talking nonsense.
Dealing with a street urchin is very simple and easy for her now as well as in the past.
As long as he thought clearly about the price he would have to pay for provoking her, she didn't care.
Feng Er couldn't bear to see him dithering, so he walked up to him, picked up the pill from the ground, pried open the man's mouth, stuffed the pill into his mouth, and pressed the acupoints on his neck to help him swallow the pill quickly.
After seeing his Adam's apple roll a few times, he released his grip on him.
As soon as he was free, the street kid opened his mouth and started to dig his throat with his hands, trying to get the pill out. However, it didn't work at all except making himself more embarrassed.
Song Qingci was disgusted by him and said, "You can't dig it out. Besides, this medicine is not a deadly poison."
The street urchin who heard Song Qingci's words raised his head and looked at her with a look of disbelief.
"Your life is not as valuable as my poison. If I want to kill you, I don't need poison." Her poisons are really all worth more than gold. It's such a waste to use them on such a small fry.
"Since you like to talk too much, then I will just make you speechless. There is no need to poison you to death." However, what Song Qingci did not say was that this pill was a defective product, and the muteness effect would only last for a year at most. When the time was up, he would still be able to speak normally.
She was just being manipulated by someone because of greed, so she should be taught a lesson. There is no need to waste her good medicine.
