The Famous Detective of the Red Mansions

Chapter 385: Behind the scenes

One point to the left and right of the room, two white servants came in with a middle-aged man, pushed him heavily to the ground, and reported: "Master, the criminals have been brought here!"

Sun Shaozong raised his hand to signal the two of them to step aside, and then looked down at the so-called "profiteer", but saw that this man was in his early thirties, with dark skin and thin body, wrapped in coarse cloth, and he looked at what it was so much. Wealthy merchants are more like coolies in black coal kilns.

The'profite businessman' fell heavily, but he didn't dare to cry out for pain. He hurriedly got up and grabbed his head and said: "Master Qingtian is sure that the villain has always abided by the law and has never done anything that hurts the heavens and the law. !"

Slap~

Before Sun Shaozong could speak, Jia She slapped the table and yelled angrily: "You are a profiteer! You have deceived the master, how can you dare to say ‘obeying the law’?!"

The black and thin profiteer saw Jia She at this time. He was stunned for a while, and then yelled Bian Tianqu again: "Where is the big master Jia? The villain has the courage and dare not. You deceive Master Jia!"

"You dare to say that you haven't deceived me?!"

Jia She got more and more annoyed as he spoke. He stood up, shyly walked to the front, kicked the black and thin businessman all over the sky, and pointed to his nose and cursed: "Those five hundred Tao Zhu Jinbei What kind of condition is it, don't you know what it is? You dare to fool Lao Tzu, and you can make a fortune by saying anything!"

The black and thin businessman saw his eyebrows erected like this, so he did not dare to get up. He only turned his back to the sky, and the turtle cried out with his neck stretched out like the turtle: "The big master is really wronged by the villain. That Jinbei is now The price has risen to five taels of silver, and the villain offers four taels of silver. Wouldn't it be possible to make a fortune by flipping hands?"

"As for fineness..."

"The villain has never told Master Jia that those are top-grade'Tao Zhu Jinbei'!"

Before he finished his words, Jia She kicked up again with his head and face, and he yelled: "How can you continue to talk nonsense? Don't you dare to shut up to the master!"

The black and thin businessman was beaten up with aggrieved heart, and he didn't know what he had said wrong.

The Sun brothers listened to the audience, but they couldn't help but sneer again and again. Don't look at Jia She's scolding of a profiteer now, but after all, he is afraid that he is a hundred times more greedy than this black and thin businessman!

It’s just that he is considered an elder after all, and the two brothers are not good enough to point them face to face, so he waited for him to kick a few times before Sun Shaozong said: "Uncle Shi, please stay calm and let me ask him a few questions. ?"

Jia She knew that he had revealed his details, and his face felt a little hot, but after all, he was a person who had been used to'playing sideways'. After turning his head back, he said in a polite manner: "Sage-in-law and nephew should not be bothered. Listen to him talking nonsense! This guy is clearly'shocking good', and he insists on selling me the shellfish for ten taels of silver!"

The use of the word ‘hard need’ is really wonderful!

Sun Shaozong is not poor now, but in any case he can't imagine how an ordinary businessman with no background could "sell something" to the Grand Master of the Rongguo Mansion.

And what Jia She said at the beginning, it looks like fifteen taels of silver and a gold shell, right?

My heart was speechless for a while, but after all he slept with his daughter, Sun Shaozong couldn’t care about these things with him, so he smiled helplessly: "Uncle, don’t worry, what I want to ask is not these trivial matters, just about that. The origin of Tao Zhu Jinbei is quite curious."

As soon as Jia She heard this, the wrinkled old face suddenly shined, and he urged: "Yes, yes, yes! Quickly ask about the origin of that Jinbei, let's send someone to gather some of it, isn't it strong? Ever be a second-door dealer?!"

Since that time of the audit, a lot of stolen money has been collected, he has fallen into the eyes of money completely, but he is greedy for money, and he spends money without blinking.

And let Jia She say it like this, it seems to be inquiring about the origin of this'Tao Zhu Jinbei', just as if he wanted to take away people's money, and it made Sun Shaozong a good response.

However, the black-faced man felt very obedient. Hearing this, he immediately got up, and without waiting for Sun Shaozong to ask anything, he explained the origin of Tao Zhu Jinbei clearly and plainly.

It turns out that this so-called "Tao Zhu Jinbei" is a real thing from the Western Regions, but it is not produced in a wild wilderness thousands of miles away, like the rumors said, but from the four guards outside the Great Wall thousands of miles away.

The four guards outside the Great Wall are located on the plateau on the northwestern border. The land is sparsely populated and dominated by herdsmen. Although it can be regarded as the territory of the Great Zhou, few people care about it.

Therefore, it was not until a few years ago that a group of vendors selling tea bricks discovered this kind of shell with a copper coin pattern near the salt lake named "Tso Wembu".

At that time, as one of the many legends in the Western Regions, this incident was only spread among some merchants, and it did not arouse much attention.

It wasn't until last summer that a vendor had a whim. In addition to selling tea bricks, he bought a batch of shells with characters from the local herders, and named them ‘Tao Zhu Jinbei’ and tried to sell them in the capital.

Unexpectedly, this thing became famous in one battle, and was praised by many gentry. In just two months, its value has doubled dozens of times. Some of them can distinguish the content of the text, which has increased by a thousand times !

As soon as the news spread, there were merchants who knew the basics immediately, and the black and thin merchant rushed to the vicinity of the "Tsowenbu Lake" to sweep goods. This was one of them.

"Because the villain was afraid of delaying the market for too long, he only received four to five hundred good-quality goods, and he casually brought back more than a thousand inferior goods."

When Sun Shaozong heard this, he asked again: "How much does "Tao Zhu Jinbei" with words account for?"

"If you return to the Lord, the real'Tao Zhu Jinbei' can be said to be unique!"

Just listen to the black and thin businessman depressed: "I brought back these two thousand small ones. Among them, there are only three of them with text, and they all have a fuzzy text shape, which is not worth a big price at all."

Seeing that Sun Shaozong seemed to be unbelief, he hurriedly explained: "The local herders also often save shells with words as rare objects, so the surnamed Hu just collected more than 100 shells at once, but he probably didn't. I thought that'Tao Zhu Jinbei' could be so valuable, and all his brains were sold out at a low price, but now it is too late to regret it."

Speaking of this, the black and thin businessman couldn't help being a little gloating.

In this way, this'Tao Zhu Jinbei' can really be called a scarce resource.

Sun Shaozong groaned a little, and then asked: "Now this'Tao Zhu Jinbei' is priced at one price per day, not to mention the middle-grade ones, even the defective ones have risen to four silver coins. Is this because you and the vendors work together to raise the price? Got up?"

"Master Qingtian is clear!"

The black-handed man slammed his head on the ground, complaining: "Others don't know what to do, but the villain is just like a professional businessman, how can he have such skills?"

"Originally, I just wanted to make a fortune with the help of'Tao Zhu Jinbei'. Later, the villain found that the real Jinbei was not easy to find, and was unwilling to return empty-handed. Then he tried to collect some ordinary goods and wanted to make some hard work. money."

"Who knows that after arriving in the capital, the young talent found that many vendors coincided with me. Thousands of ordinary goods were piled up in one place, but where could they be sold?"

"Unfortunately, everyone had to sell those Jinbei to others for a few cents."

"Because the people who bought Jinbei seemed to know each other, the villain kept an eye on each other. He only sold the inferior goods clean, but secretly left five hundred with a slightly better appearance. Pieces."

"Sure enough, after the summer, not to mention ordinary Jinbei, even the prices of those defective products have been turned upside down!"

"The villain thinks he has a plan and wants to take the opportunity to make a fortune, but who knows..."

At this point, the black and thin businessman looked depressed again, and glanced at Jia She.

Sure enough, someone was manipulating it!

Sun Shaozong's spirit was lifted. Since there is a ‘behind the scenes’, the penalty officer has thoroughly investigated the matter and he has justified a lot.

I just don't know who has such a big hand, and in a short time, it has created such a momentum, and even a part of the gambling house in the capital can endorse this Jinbei.

"Let me ask you!"

Sun Shaozong was trying to figure out the identity and background of the'behind the scenes', but Xiang Jia She hurriedly asked: "Now, if I send someone to go to the lake to collect some golden shells and sell them, is it still too late? ?"

"This one……"

The black and thin businessman hesitated for a while, then shook his head and said: "The number of gold shells is limited, not to mention that the gold threads on most shells are messy, and it is not a gold shell at all. Now I will buy it again, I am afraid that I have already found it. Not too much."

Jia She suddenly sat down on his chair like a flat ball.

When Sun Shaozong saw that Jia She was no longer interested~www.readwn.com~, he ordered the white servants to take the black and thin businessman to the criminal justice department so that he could re-transcribe his confession. He also confessed to Lin Delu and others to focus on tracing the'behind the scenes'. Identity background.

Cang~!

At this time, I heard the gong ringing outside, but this morning's "Sun Gong'an" is about to officially start.

It was not the protagonist of "Sun Shaozong" who first appeared on the stage, but Liu Xianglian and a few scholars. Seeing them sang the background in two or three sentences, they began to circulate the "quarrel" again.

Everyone was attracted, and at the same time they waited quietly for Jiang Yuhan to speak up.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Jiang Yuhan, dressed in a costume, broke in and called out rather anxiously: "Brother Sun, please take a step to speak!"

At this time, how could he still have time to talk to himself?

Sun Shaozong didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly followed Jiang Yuhan out of the private room, but when Jiang Yuhan reached out and grabbed his wrist, he excitedly said: "Something happened to Brother Sun! As the carpenter's Zhu Er, I just didn't know who stabbed him to death!"
