Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 130
"My dear, he is actually the apprentice of Dali Siqing. If we get in touch with him, wouldn't we be able to do business all over the country in the future?" Thinking of this, Zuo Hongji suddenly showed a smile.

He held Li Canghai's hand affectionately, and said with a smile all over his face: "Brother, you are so young and promising, butler, hurry up and set up a banquet, master, I want to thank Mr. Li for finding out the murderer's kindness!"

The butler bowed to answer, and ordered people to remove the original banquet, and soon replaced it with a new one.

At the banquet, Li Canghai mingled with the two of them, talking about the past and the present, and soon the three of them became friends.

When the wine was in full swing, Zuo Hongji squinted his eyes, offered the 'Snail Jade', and said: "Brother Li found the murderer for me, Zuo can't repay me, please accept this 'Snail Jade'. The right is Zuo's repayment."

Wang Buquan stared at the 'Snail Huayu', with a greedy look in his eyes, but the light quickly passed by.

Li Canghai took over the "Snail Jade". He had heard of this "Snail Jade". In his previous life, he had heard that someone spent tens of millions to buy a "Snail Jade" the size of a copper coin.

Although the Tang Dynasty was not as focused on collection as later generations, even in this era, "Snail Huayu" is still a priceless treasure.

Although this 'Snail Jade' is only the size of a finger, the quality of the jade is transparent, the lines are clear, and it is natural.

He took a deep breath, looked at the small 'snail jade' in his hand, clicked his tongue a few times, and suddenly laughed: "It's a good thing, but this thing is too expensive, I'm ashamed to accept it."

"Hey, what did Brother Li say? If it wasn't for Brother Li, this treasure would have been stolen by that evil servant long ago. What's more, you also found the murderer of my wife for me. No matter how precious this 'snail jade' is, it is not as precious as it is. Thank you Brother Li for your kindness to me!" Zuo Hongji said with a belch and an apologetic smile.

He is a businessman, so how could he make a deal that would make him lose?He thought that Li Canghai was Zhang Yingyan's disciple, and getting close to him was equivalent to getting close to Zhang Yingyan's backer.

Who is Zhang Yingyan? He is the world-renowned Minister of Dali Temple, who is in charge of the prisons all over the world. Even the relatives of the emperor should respect him three points.

With Zhang Yingyan as the backer, the business will flourish in the future, not to mention a single 'Snail Jade', even if there are a few more, he is willing to take it out.

Li Canghai returned the 'Snail Jade' to Zuo Hongji. He smiled slightly and said, "This thing is still too precious. If Brother Zuo wants to thank me, just give me this strange stone."

As he spoke, he took out a transparent stone he found in the wing room and placed it on the table.

Zuo Hongji spread his hands in some embarrassment, and said: "Brother Li, is there any reason to take back the things you gave away? As long as Brother Li likes it, you can take whatever you want from my collection in this house, but this 'snail Yu', you have to accept it no matter what."

What Zuo Hongji said was sincere, and with a mouth that was wandering in the mall, he said so much hype that in the end Li Canghai felt that if he didn't accept the "snail jade", he would be a sinner through the ages.

Wang Buquan also persuaded him to accept the "Snail Huayu", saying that it was Quandang's token of this transaction.

Li Canghai hesitated for a while before deciding to accept the 'Snail Huayu'.

"Forget it, since the two elder brothers said so, I'd rather be respectful than obedient." Li Canghai put away the 'Snail Huayu' and put the transparent stone into the cloth bag, and then said: "You two, Now that the transaction has been completed, can you take me to the granary to have a look?"

"What are you doing in the granary in the middle of the night?" Wang Buquan asked a little puzzled.

Li Canghai winked at Zuo Hongji, Zuo Hongji understood it, and immediately drove away Zuo Hongji.

Glancing around, Li Canghai lowered his voice and said cautiously: "To tell you the truth, my three hundred dans of grain are actually disaster relief hoarded by the Luoyang government."

"What? The disaster relief food from Luoyang Mansion?" The two were startled and shouted at the same time.

"Hush", Li Canghai gestured to the two of them, and said in a deep voice, "To tell you the truth, I have a cousin who works in Luoyang Mansion, and it was through his hands that we got these relief supplies. You two also know that, These are hot potatoes, if found out, it would be a felony, so I came to Zhengyang City to look for you two."

Zuo Hongji and Wang Buquan looked at each other, and the two pondered in their hearts for a while, Wang Buquan couldn't help but sighed: "Brother Li is really bold, he dared to take the idea of ​​Luoyang government disaster relief, compared with Brother Li , I really can’t get on the stage!”

Li Canghai nodded, knocked on a table with his hand, and said seriously: "This matter is of great importance. I must confirm whether the two of you are really selling disaster relief food, otherwise, treat it as if I didn't say anything about it."

Zuo Hongji and Wang Buquan looked at each other for a while, seemingly hesitant.

Seeing this, Li Canghai stood up, and said calmly: "Forget it, since you two are afraid, then I won't force it, so I will leave."

After speaking, he greeted Di Qing and Fen'er, and walked towards the threshold.

Seeing this, Chang Feng hurriedly followed, his eyes full of bewilderment.

He had seen Li Canghai's methods to solve the case, and was not surprised that he found the murderer. What he didn't understand was why Li Canghai, as the magistrate of Zhengyang County, would talk about business with Wang Buquan.

Whether Li Canghai's words are true or not, no one knows, but he has no doubts that his method of solving the case was learned from Dali Siqing.

In his impression, the masters of solving cases only existed in Dali Temple, and the minister of Dali Temple was the master of masters, and the most famous one was Di Renjie, who used to be the minister of Dali Temple.That is the person known as 'God's Judgment'!
"My lord, what's going on today? Did he change his original intention and want to be a corrupt official? If that's the case, should I respect him a little bit so as to plan for the future?" Chang Feng stared at Li Canghai's back, muttering to himself.

Seeing Li Canghai stepping out of the threshold and walking towards the gate without looking back, Wang Buquan suddenly shouted, "Brother Li, stay!"

Li Canghai did not stop, but continued to walk forward.

Seeing this, Wang Buquan hurried over.

"Brother Li, brother Li stay here for now!"

Wang Buquan yelled twice before Li Canghai stopped, turned to look at him, and said, "What else can Lieutenant Wang do?"

As the local snake in Zhengyang County, Wang Buquan had never seen anyone before, but this was the first time he had seen someone as proud as him.

If the words are not speculative, turn around and leave.

Wang Buquan admits that he has seen countless people. The more arrogant Li Canghai is, the more extraordinary he feels, and the more he believes in his words.

"Brother Li misunderstood, we are now on the same boat, since Brother Li wants to go to the granary, we will go with you."
