Transmigrating To Ancient Times With A Kitchen

Chapter 118 - 118 There Was a Problem



She had been wandering around the village every day these past few days, and there were many blisters on the soles of her feet.

On this day, Jian Qingqing was teaching the villagers how to grow sweet potatoes in the field when suddenly, a person ran over in a hurry from the ridge of the field.

“Boss! Boss!”

Jian Qingqing turned around and recognized that it was her shop assistant, Xiao Liang. She quickly went over and asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Xiao Liang stopped and nodded while panting. “Someone in the hot pot restaurant was poisoned, and now he’s causing a ruckus there!”

Jian Qingqing was shocked and hurriedly asked, “How is that person now? Has he asked for a doctor?”

Food safety was a major issue. They could not afford to be careless.

Xiao Liang nodded and replied, “There was a doctor in the shop at that time. He checked and said that it was something unclean.”

Jian Qingqing asked as she walked, “Something unclean? Was it something unclean in the shop? Didn’t I tell you to do a good job in the shop? You have to wear gloves when cooking and eating, and you can’t take the unfresh food to the customers to eat? How can it be unclean?”

Xiao Liang followed behind her and said aggrievedly, “We did what you said, Boss. We washed the pots and bowls every day before going home. There wasn’t even a mouse in the shop, and those dishes were washed several times with water. I don’t know why they are unclean.”

Jian Qingqing pulled out the ox-cart and motioned for Xiao Liang to sit on it. She asked, “Then how did you know that it was because he ate the food in the shop that was unclean? What if it was because he ate something else outside and came to our shop?”

“I don’t know either. That person vomited after eating the hotpot, and he even had diarrhea. He must have eaten one bite of the hotpot and felt sick. He wanted us to explain, and he demanded to see you.”

Jian Qingqing understood, which meant that there was no evidence to prove that the food in the store was dirty, and there was no modern detection technology to check if there was something wrong with the hotpot that he ate.

This was troublesome. If news of food safety was spread, it would affect the reputation of the store. If the business was not handled properly, it might plummet, no matter how delicious the food in the shop was, no one would buy something that would make them sick.

Jian Qingqing drove the carriage quickly to the county town.

As soon as she arrived outside the food shop, she saw that it was crowded with people watching. When they saw Jian Qingqing arrive, they all looked at her with concern and sympathy.

Jian Qingqing said with a cold face, “Make way.”

The onlookers also wanted to see what would happen next, so they made way for her to enter.

After entering, they found that the situation inside was even worse. The things in the shop had been smashed, and a few workers were being suppressed and beaten up. The onlookers were hiding at the side and pointing at her mockingly.

Jian Qingqing shouted angrily, “Stop!”

Seeing Jian Qingqing coming, the few people who were beating her finally let go of the people in their hands. They walked up and said casually, “Yo! Boss Jian is here!”

Jian Qingqing ignored them and went over to help the few workers up. She asked softly, “How is it? Are you badly injured?”

When the workers saw Jian Qingqing, it was as if they had found their backbone. They held back their tears and shook their heads.
