Concubine

Chapter 227

Yang Qiuchi looked around the room. Although there were some wooden boards piled up in the room, he didn't see the long wooden horse for carpentry, nor did he see the semi-finished carpentry. He asked strangely: "He is good at carpentry." , why is there no carpentry in the room? Does he have other places to do carpentry?"

Li Zheng curled his lips: "He doesn't have any carpentry skills. He was asked to install a door and nail a table or other simple carpentry work. He couldn't do it well for a long time. People said he lost his temper and didn't come to the door."

"No," Song Yun'er interjected, "Just now we saw the God of Wealth he made in the warehouse, it's very good, the workmanship is fine, and the carving looks like a real person."

Li Zheng couldn't refute, so he just smiled with a blushing face, but his expression was very disapproving.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Yang Qiuchi's head, and he turned around and asked Kang Huai: "Master Kang, how many do we have in Kunming City Wood Workshop?"

"This..." Kang Huai was the procurator, so he didn't have the time to pay attention to how many carpentry workshops there were in Kunming.There are about a dozen of them interjecting and saying: "There are about ten companies, and not many of them are doing well. It's okay to make cabinets, chairs and so on. If you do this kind of delicate work of carving statues, there are really no two that can do it well. "

Hearing that he was good at what he said, Yang Qiuchi asked curiously: "Why, Mr. Lizheng, you also know carpenters?"

Here is grinning, revealing big yellow teeth: "My lord, to tell you the truth, I worked as a carpenter when I was young. As soon as you reach out your hand, you will know if you are a so-called expert. This city of Kunming can catch my eye." There are really not two carpenter workshops in the world."

"Then, which one do you think is the best carpenter's workshop?"

"The Magic Sword Li Carpenter's Workshop!"

"Sword Li?" Yang Qiuchi was a little funny, why did he look like Xiao Li with a flying knife, don't be some martial arts master who lives in seclusion here.

"That's right, this carpenter Li has a carving knife, he can carve whatever he looks like, not to mention this kind of god statue, let him carve a little grasshopper, even the thin hair and beard can be clearly carved for you."

Yang Qiuchi said to Kang Huai: "Since the carpenter Hua is not very good at craftsmanship, the statue of the God of Wealth in the yamen's treasury is exquisitely crafted and lifelike. He should have bought it from someone else, most likely, from this God of Wealth. I bought it from Dao Li Carpenter Workshop. We went to their place to check and found no clues about Hua Gang."

Kang Huai nodded and asked there Zheng: "Do you know where he lives?"

Li Zheng had heard the conversation between the two of them, and said repeatedly: "I know, I know, I will take the two adults to the west city."

Under the leadership of Li Zheng, Yang Qiuchi and Kang Huai rushed to Xicheng Shendao Li Carpenter's workshop with their respective guards and catchers, and quickly surrounded the workshop.

The owner of the workshop, Carpenter Li, came to ask what was going on with a smile on his face.Kang Huai ordered him to be arrested, and ordered to bring out all the panting people in the workshop.

A group of arresters rushed in like tigers and wolves with their waist knives in hand. After a while, they pulled out a few people who looked like carpenter apprentices, and went in to search again.

At this moment, suddenly, there was a series of screams from inside. Several police officers flew out of the room and fell to the ground. Said: "There is a big man resisting arrest inside!"

The other arresters shouted loudly, but no one dared to rush in again.

Nan Gongxiong sneered, drew his waist knife and was about to charge in, Yang Qiuchi stopped him: "The enemy is dark, we are clear, there is no need to take risks," waved his hand, and shouted: "Set fire to him!"

Nan Gongxiong nodded and ordered to set fire.The workshop was quickly ignited, and the fire was raging. The guards and arresters surrounded by Jinyiwei were all on alert, beware of the thieves breaking out of the encirclement by force.

At this moment, there was a roar from inside, and a burly man like a bear rushed out with a golden-backed machete, with flames on his clothes, shoulders, and hair.The injured arresters shouted: "It is this strong thief who refuses to arrest and hurt people! Be careful, everyone, the thief is powerful!"

Song Yun'er drew out her dagger and shielded it in front of Yang Qiuchi.

At the same time, Nan Gongxiong waved his hand, and all the guards in Jin Yiwei surrounded the man with their own weapons, fighting together.

Yang Qiuchi said: "Keep alive, don't hurt his life!"

That big man's martial arts is very good, and Jin Yiwei has Yang Qiuchi's request not to hurt his life, so he is restrained to a certain extent, and there is nothing he can do for a while.

Nan Gongxiong yelled: "Everyone retreat to Lue formation, wait for me to capture him!"

After the Jin Yiwei retreated, Nan Gongxiong drew out his waist knife and rushed forward. The two fought for dozens of rounds.That person was not an opponent at all, and he was already surrounded, he was already in a mess. However, although Nan Gongxiong had the upper hand, it was difficult to subdue him for a while.

The little black dog followed Yang Qiuchi with his ears up, staring at the field.Yang Qiuchi squatted down and patted the little black dog's buttocks, and pointed to the big man in the field.

The little black dog already knew what the owner wanted it to do, so it quietly turned behind the big man, suddenly rushed up like a sharp arrow, and bit the big man's calf hard.

The big man was trying his best to deal with Nan Gongxiong, but he didn't notice that a puppy would come up to bite him, screaming in pain.At this moment of distraction, Nan Gongxiong took advantage of the situation and slashed his right shoulder with a palm. The big man let out a scream, and the golden machete in his hand fell to the ground. Nan Gongxiong immediately kicked him upside down for several seconds. step, and fell to the ground.

All Jin Yiwei rushed up to hold him down, and tied him tightly with cowhide ropes. Four equally tall and strong Jin Yiwei pushed him down in front of Yang Qiuchi, kicked him to the ground, and held him firmly.All the government servants and Min Zhuang hurriedly extinguished the fire in the carpenter's shop.

The little black dog ran back triumphantly wagging its tail.Yang Qiuchi patted the little black dog's head to express his praise, and then looked at the big man kneeling: "You are the carpenter Huagang, from Zhejiang, right?" He turned to look at Lizheng, who nodded to indicate that it was him.Yang Qiuchi was very happy, thinking that this is really hard to find, and it doesn't take much effort to get it.

"So what?" The big man looked at Yang Qiuchi sideways.

Kang Huai, who was on the side, was most concerned about the money, and asked anxiously, "Is it you who stole the treasury of the Chasi Yamen? Where's the money?"

"Bah!" The big man turned his head and spit thick phlegm at Kang Huai. Fortunately, Kang Huai almost missed the vomit, and suddenly became furious, and shouted: "The thief is unreasonable, torture me!"

The four Jinyiwei guards who were escorting looked at Yang Qiuchi, and seeing Yang Qiuchi nod slightly, they threw the big man to the ground and beat him hard.Jin Yiwei is the best at beating people, he is ruthless and accurate, but he won't hurt the vitals.The beating made the big man scream.

He beat the big man to death, but he still refused to speak.

Seeing that the fire in the carpenter's shop had been extinguished, Yang Qiuchi didn't bother to watch them torture to extract a confession. He waved his hand and said, "Go in and search for me. Can you hide so much money? It should be in here."

Jin Yiwei and the yamen servants agreed, rushed into the carpenter's shop that was still emitting green smoke, searched through boxes and cabinets, searched for a long time, only found a dozen taels of silver.

Yang Qiuchi led Song Yun'er and followed the yamen servants to watch them search. When they came to the backyard, they found some logs. Of course there would be logs in the carpenter's shop.

But Yang Qiuchi stopped. He went up to check each one carefully, nodded, then rolled up his sleeves, hugged one end of one of the waist-thick logs, exhausted all his strength, but did not lift it up.

Shaking his head and smiling wryly, he cursed: "Why am I so bad, I can't even lift it, let alone carry it." Turning to look at Song Yun'er.

Song Yuner was a little puzzled when Yang Qiuchi suddenly ran to the backyard of the carpenter's shop to lift the log. Hearing what he said, she smiled and walked forward, hugging the log with one hand and exerting strength. The log only rose a little. She blushed slightly, sat up and lowered her waist, and shouted crisply: "Get up!"

This time, the log was lifted up to the height of half a person, and Song Yuner immediately put the log down.

Yang Qiuchi looked at Song Yuner's flushed face, and praised, "Yuner is amazing!"

Song Yun'er smiled smugly, then looked at the wood strangely and said, "What kind of wood is this? Why is it so heavy?"

Yang Qiuchi smiled: "Yes, how could a piece of wood become so heavy?"

Song Yuner was startled, looked down at the wood and then up at Yang Qiuchi, and said, "Brother, you mean there is something wrong with the wood?"

Kang Huai followed Yang Qiuchi all the time. Hearing this, he was overjoyed and said, "Could it be that the silver is hidden in this big log?" Turning around, he shouted, "Split the log for me!"

Yang Qiuchi waved his hand: "No need to chop." He squatted down, carefully looked at the cross-section of the wood side, and stretched out his hand: "Yun'er, give me your dagger."

Song Yun'er flipped her wrist, and there was already a dagger gleaming in her hand, she turned the hilt upside down and handed it over.

Yang Qiuchi took the short sword and stabbed at the cross section of the wood. The short sword made a soft hissing sound, and half of it pierced into the cross section.Yang Qiuchi grabbed the hilt of the sword and went back, a round piece of wood tied to the tip of the sword was pulled out, revealing a big hole.

Sure enough, there is a famous hall!Kang Huai was happy and nervous at the same time, ran up and squatted down, reached in and touched it, and said with a happy face, "There is something!" He shouted to the servants who surrounded him, "Come here, give me the things inside." I pour it out!"

The yamen servants agreed in unison, and eight or nine strong men came over, yelled, lifted the big log, carried it on their shoulders, and slowly tilted it down.

There was a crashing sound, and a long gleaming silver stick slipped out of the big log.The yamen servants backed away slowly, and poured out the long silver stick in its entirety.

When Kang Huai saw the long, big silver stick, he jumped three feet high with excitement, laughed loudly, and groaned, "That's right! It's the silver! It's the silver that my yamen threw!" He couldn't close his mouth from laughing. , hurriedly walked to Yang Qiuchi, bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Mr. Yang, for your help, thank you!"

He is a dignified third-rank official, bowing to a seventh-rank sesame official, it can be seen that he is already overjoyed and grateful.
