Adorable Food Goddess Chapter 329 – Someone set fire to house  

On the morning of the next day, Chief Zhong prepared a gift, and Ye Jiayao personally sent Chief Qiu out of the city, telling him to pay attention to safety on the road. Chief Qiu promised and then was sent out of the city by Chief Zhong.

Ye Jiayao turned to the training class, and today she had classes. Since Mrs. Rong came, she had devoted herself to the training class and had undertaken most of the class affairs. Lu Xiaotian had also returned to class. Ye Jiayao was much more relaxed and had a class turn in five days.

In this issue, Tianshang Ju Restaurant sent Cui Dongpeng and Jiang Youli, both of whom passed the examination smoothly. Cui Dongpeng was full of ambition this time and vowed to take first place, not to humiliate Tianshang Ju Restaurant.

Ye Jiayao ressured him that everything was good as far as possible ,and the first place was not so easy to take.

Any skill was god's reward for food, and talent was very important. Cui Dongpeng was clever, he was good at making interpersonal relationships and doing management, but he still lacked some talent in cooking. Wang Mingde was just the opposite. Wang Mingde looked rather dull, but he had a high understanding in cooking and worked diligently and conscientiously. This kind of person could succeed instead.

Even so, but she also did not want Cui Dongpeng to be hit by the time. Several of the students in this group were quite good.

Cui Dongpeng was very confident: ” Second Mistress, you can watch it! I'm in the second phase. If I don't get the first, I'm ashamed to see anyone.”

Ye Jiayao laughed and thought to herself that it seemed necessary to render special treatment to Cui Dongpeng.

The students learned theory in the morning, and then practiced in the afternoon, they studied seriously, and Ye jiayao's teaching was also vigorous. Time passed quickly, and it got close to dusk in an instant.

When Ye Jiayao went out to get into the carriage, she found a few people sneaking around and poking their heads. Ye Jiayao was very uncomfortable and felt something was wrong. She turned back and called Cui Dongpeng. He was now the monitor of the class and she had something to tell him.

” You have been watching carefully recently. There seems to be some people nearby who are not very well – behaved.”

Cui Dongpeng solemnly nodded: ” Yesterday the Boss Lu had also said, I will pay attention to it.”

Ye Jiayao heard that Lu Xiaotian also discovered it, and felt even more uneasy, urged him repeatedly before she went back.

The next day, when it was not bright, Ye Jiayao was awakened by a rapid knock at the door.

It was XiangTao that knocked at the door.

QiaoXi went to open the door and complained in a low voice, ” what's the matter? It's still not bright!”

XiangTao said, ” Cui Dongpeng has come and said there is a very urgent matter to tell Second Mistress.”

When Ye Jiayao heard that it was Cui Dongpeng, her heart thumped and she was wide awake.She got up and dressed and said, ” Let him wait in the lobby. I'll be right there.”

When Ye Jiayao saw Cui Dongpeng, she was startled that Cui Dongpeng's face was black with paint and his clothes were in tatters.

” Cui Dongpeng, what happened?” Asked Ye Jiayao in a hurry.

Cui Dongpeng gritted his teeth with cold eyes and said, ” Second Mistress, someone came to the training classroom last night to set fire to house. Fortunately, I sent a vigil and found it in time. Everyone escaped without any casualties, but …”

” But what, you are quick to say!” Ye Jiayao was worried.

” But last night, the wind was strong and the fire was fierce. The house was burned for most of the time. We all caught the arsonist and were scuffling. Suddenly, a group of people came out. Most of us were fighting the fire, so we let the guy run away again,” Cui Dongpeng said angrily.

Ye Jiayao took a deep breath and it liked burning a fire in her heart. It was the ancestral home of Duan Qilin.

” Have told the Boss Lu?”

” We sent people separately to leave and report to the officials. Officials should be there soon. Everyone is still there now,” Cui Dongpeng said.

Ye Jiayao's eyes were cold: ” Go and see.”

Which bastard put the fire on, if it was pulled out by her, she would kill him.

Ye Jiayao hurried to the training classroom. Duan Qilin and Lu Xiaotian had arrived. Officials were on the scene of the investigation and others had come in succession.

Everyone looked at the blackened ruins and was furious.

Ye Jiayao said: ” Fortunately, everyone is fine, Boss Duan, you count the losses first. Boss Lin, please calm the students. Boss Lu, let's listen to what the government says, and we'll meet later to discuss how to deal with the aftermath.”

Everyone had no objection and acted separately.

After investigating the scene and asking some students, the captor said, ” It seems that someone has deliberately sabotaged it. Do you think about who you have offended recently or who you think is the most suspicious?”

Ye Jiayao and Lu Xiaotian took one look at each other, there were many suspicious people.

This time, several restaurants sent people who failed to pass the examination felt resentful, as well as the last food festival, and some people were jealous to sabotage.

However, the arsonist ran away, this kind of thing had no evidence and was not good to testify.

Ye Jiayao had thought about it, and called Cui Dongpeng: ” You fought with the man. What did he look like, do you remember?”

Cui Dongpeng said ruefully, ” It was still dark at that time and I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but the man's left face seemed to have a naevus the size of a small fingernail.”

” It's not very easy to find,” said the captor. ” There are hundreds of thousands of people in Jinling City. But it is also a clue. You'd better provide a list of suspicious person, and maybe they will contact each other.”

Lu Xiaotian said: ” We have eliminated some students from restaurants this time. Will they be suspected?”

Captor said, ” This must be done.”

Lu Xiaotian said, ” I'll give you the list later. Please take care of it.”

This catcher was dedicated: ” Arson is a felony, and we will certainly try our best to catch it. Now we have to find this arsonist first.”

Duan Qilin has counted the losses and came over: “The list of the last entries has been burned, and the damage of the rest room is the most serious.”

Ye Jiayao didn't participate in the selection and assessment, so she couldn't help even if she wanted to.

Lu Xiaotian said, ” It's ok, Mrs Rong should have it over there. She changed all the written papers.”

Catcher said, ” Please clear up the list and give it to me as soon as possible. It will be difficult to check it after a long time.”

Sent off the captor, Lin Changchun came over and said, ” I asked the students to go back to their restaurants to wait for news. The problem now is that the coverings and belongings brought by the students were burned. How can the loss of the bosses be solved?”

Lu Xiaotian looked solemn and said, ” let's go to Mrs Rong's house first!” Get the list first, then discuss it together.”

Everyone went to Mrs Rong's house together.

Because she lived far away from home and usually came alone, the students didn't know where she lived, so they didn't inform her.

At the moment, Mrs Rong had just started making breakfast in the kitchen. She heard everyone coming and rushed out to greet them.

” What? Someone set fire to it?” Mrs Rong was frightened to disgrace when she heard the news.

Lu Xiaotian said about the situation and Mrs Rong said, ” I have the list, so I am taking it to you.”

After getting the list, Lu Xiaotian sent it to the yamen immediately and everyone began to discuss the aftermath.

” Students' losses, and Boss Duan's losses, will be borne by the Chamber of Commerce! This is not a shop's matter, it's everyone's matter. ” Lu Xiaotian said.

Ye Jiayao seconded: ” It should be said that the training classroom is not for profit, but for everyone to do a good job. Now the training classroom is on fire, and this loss should be borne by everyone.”

Lin Changchun said: ” I think the boss who did not have the students to send us to our training class will even have opinions.”

” No matter what opinions he has, or he will withdraw from the Chamber of Commerce.” Ye Jiayao knew that there were some people who were very active when they got benefits, once they were asked to contribute some money, they were not willing to do so. It didn't matter how few such people were.

Duan Qilin listened quietly because he was a victim and could not say his position.

Boss Du said, ” If they don't contribute, the rest will be fine if we gather together, or launch the 39 restaurants that attended the food festival last time, each one can contribute a little, but everyone got a lot of benefits last time.”

Lu Xiaotian said, ” Count the number first, Boss Duan, don't be embarrassed and report the loss truthfully.”

Duan Qilin mused, ” The old house has been burned for more than half of its value, and there is nothing valuable in it. Even if it costs to repair it again, I guess it will cost about 40,000or 50,000 taels, plus our cookings will have to be bought again. All these can be sold in real terms, and it uses as much as it needs.”

Everyone had no opinion,this was how it should be.

” As for the students, let them register how much they have lost,” Lu Xiaotian said.

” I have already let Cui Dongpeng do this, and everyone reported the loss and then went back. It is estimated that the number will also come out at the moment,” Lin said.

” Will someone make a false report?How much money did they bring?We don't know if they say a bigger number. ” Boss Du questioned it.

Mrs Rong thought for a moment and said, ” this is no way out, but even if they make a false report, it won't be too outrageous. After all, these students are all small cooks in restaurants and their income is not high at all.”

” Every problem about money is easy to solve. The question is whether we can find out this person.If we can not pull him out, it is always a hidden danger. He can come to burn it once and can burn it for the second time.” Ye Jiayao said, gnashing her teeth. This incident really irritated her and was intolerable. Murder and arson were the most despicable and worst means. This time, it's not too bad to be alarmed in advance. What if people were burned?

When it came to this issue, everyone's face was very dignified. Indeed, who could guarantee that he would not come to the scene for the second time without pulling out the criminal.

” It's really hard to find a person with a prickly face. I'm afraid the government will eventually do nothing,” Duan Qilin sighed sadly.

” Anyway, we must try first, and everyone will think if there is any other ways?” Lu Xiaotian looked at the crowd and asked.

Ye Jiayao thought, the man dared to set fire, it must be a gangster who wanted money but not life, even there was someone to help him ,she guessed that they were gangsters. The government was not very easy to check this thing, how to do?

Ye Jiayao was sad, and suddenly her mind flashed. By the way, she went to find Zhao Qixuan, who had a wide range of contacts and is familiar with both mafia and goveronments. Let him send someone secretly to inquire about it, and maybe he would get something.
