Chapter 367: [Dark Camel]

In the early morning of the next day, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang got up early in the morning and rushed to the Chengqiao Market with Wu Yiyi and the wind.

Zhao Pu, Gongsun, Lin Yehuo, Zou Liang, and of course, the most idle and idle Xiaosizi and Xiaoliangzi, also went to join in the fun.

Wu Yiwu was quite puzzled, "What are you looking for that camel for?" Ask me! ”

So everyone asked him who the shopkeeper of the gold shop surnamed Chen was.

Wu Yi was in trouble for a long time, wondering, "There is a surname Chen in the shopkeeper of the gold shop?" How come I don't remember? ”

When they arrived at the city bridge, everyone looked into the market and was also surprised.

The bazaar has been opened early, and many people buy early, and the hot scene is very popular.

"So many people so early?" Zhao Pu looked at it curiously, and asked on Wu Yiyi's shoulder, "Alas, I said old man, is this bazaar interested in going to Black Wind City?" There are a lot of local tyrants over there, but there is no such type of market all year round, so it must be a good deal to move over like this! Let's open a branch! ”

Wu Yiwu really thought about it, "This can be had!" ”

……

The group walked along the long street, and soon came to the front of a small two-story building with a vermilion glazed tile roof.

At the gate, a young man was holding a roster and drawing a hook, and when he looked up, he saw Wu Yiyi and them, "Uncle Xiaoxiao!" Brother Zhan. ”

Wu Yiwu nodded, "What about your master?" ”

"Upstairs." The boy pointed upstairs.

Zhan Zhao introduced to everyone, "His name is Lu Mian, the apprentice of the Dark Camel. ”

Lu Mian greeted everyone with a smile, looked at Bai Yutang by the way, and ran back with his notebook.

Zhan Zhao saw that he was running around happily and gossiping, so he asked Wu Yiwu, "Aunt Nine Heads is also here?" ”

"I can't." Wu spread his hands in a disaster, "If you come and see you, you won't fly out?" ”

As they spoke, everyone went upstairs.

Before I went upstairs and entered the door, I heard a rough voice shouting in the door, "Three thousand one hundred and twenty-three plus one thousand six hundred and forty-five taels plus one percent of the profit, deducting one thousand taels of capital, deducting two points of taxes, what is the surplus?" ”

The moment everyone pushed the door, they heard a "crackling" abacus beads inside, and at the same time, Bai Yutang and Gongsun said in unison, "Three thousand three hundred and ninety-five twenty-eight dollars and four cents." ”

The crowd looked at the two.

Zhan Zhao touched his chin - Gongsun is understandable that he is calculating quickly, what is going on with this mouse?

Bai Yutang looked at the sky, his only function on the Trap Island was to help collect the accounts, and of course, to help count the silver.

In the room, there were three people, one standing on the bench, not tall, hunchbacked, holding a large thick account book, looking over, it should be a camel.

The other two scholars looked like they were burying their heads in the abacus, and when they finally stopped, they nodded to the hunchback, "That's the number." ”

The camel clapped his hands, "Which one was chosen by my family?" ”

Everyone was stunned, Xiao Sizi stretched out his hand and pointed at Bai Yutang, Bai Yutang silently raised his hand, very conscious.

"Oh? Handsome guy! The camel looked Bai Yutang up and down, and at this time, everyone was also looking at him.

The camel deserves to be one of the "big villains" in the rivers and lakes back then, and this person's appearance can be described as extremely vicious.

Xiao Sizi looked at that person with a pair of eyes wide, he has been following Zhao Pu recently, and they are also solid, not as timid as before, and he also knows that the Dao Demon Palace is Zhanzhao's relatives, so he is not afraid.

As soon as the camel shook his hand at Bai Yutang, the account book flew over.

Bai Yutang stretched out his hand to take it, slightly puzzled.

The camel squinted his eyes and folded his arms and said, "Let's see what's wrong?" The kid has a good brain. ”

Zhanzhao's eyes narrowed.

The arrogance of the dark camel disappeared immediately, and he beckoned to Zhanzhao with a smile, "Yo! Zhaozhao. ”

Zhan Zhao was helpless.

Bai Yutang didn't seem to care, and after flipping through the account book, he frowned slightly.

"A lot wrong?" The camel was curious.

"No, it's just one wrong." Bai Yutang gave him the notebook and pointed to one of the miscalculations.

A few gentlemen who settled the accounts dialed the abacus beads again, and found that they had indeed miscalculated, so they hurriedly corrected it.

Bai Yutang looked at Zhanzhao, "There are a total of 26 gold shops, and there is no one surnamed Chen, along with the silver shop, pawn shop and jade shop, there is no surname Chen, and the only one surnamed Chen is a stall to make a sugar man." ”

Everyone was surprised - could it be that Li Yuanwai's wife asked him to make a sugar man's gold jewelry?

"What gold shop surnamed Chen?" The camel jumped down from the stool, looking shorter, stocky, and leaned forward to Zhanzhao, asking curiously.

Feng Chuanfeng walked up and told me about yesterday's events.

The camel touched his chin, "It is true that there is no gold shop surnamed Chen, but ......" He flipped through the account book, pointed to one of the "Qianlao Jindian", and said, "This Qianlao, the full name is Qianxin Chen." ”

Everyone raised their eyebrows - should they not say that the surname is Chen, but the letter Chen?

So, a large group of people discussed it and decided to go their separate ways.

Zhao Pu and the others followed the wind and went to the vicinity of the gold shop to ambush them, while Bai Yutang pretended to be going to fight for gold, and together with Zhanzhao, went in to explore the truth and reality.

The camel was eager to help lead the way.

As Zhan Zhao walked, he asked Bai Yutang, "What are you going to fight?" ”

Bai Yutang said, "Hmm...... Otherwise, hit the shoes? ”

Zhan Zhao glanced at Bai Yutang, "Hmm...... Are you the same as I suspected? ”

Bai Yutang smiled slightly, "Probably." ”

"Suspect what?" Don't look at it as a rough person, his personality is quite cheerful.

"We all suspected that the other party wanted to steal the set of gold jewelry worn by Yang Guifei." Zhan Zhao said, "But there is one thing that is very strange, that is, why these precious gold ornaments are in the people, or ordinary people." After seeing the set of gold neck ornaments created by Mrs. Li Yuanwai last night, I wondered, could it be that the pair of phoenix bracelets and the old lady's phoenix hairpin are actually fake? ”

Bai Yutang also nodded, "The gold shop that created these gold ornaments may have a mold!" ”

"If you have a mold, it means that you may have the real thing in your hand!" The camel raised an eyebrow.

Bai Yutang nodded, "The stolen golden hairpin from the peasant woman's house that was killed before was still on the road, and it was picked up by Wang Da. This is very strange! We all thought it was a thief who accidentally lost it, but now that we think about it......"

"I guess it was found to be a fake, so I threw it away." Zhan Zhao said, "Judging from the other party's modus operandi, it is just seeking authenticity, not wealth." ”

"The guys you're talking about." The camel suddenly said, "Maybe it's not a thief. ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at him, "What is that?" ”

"It's for someone to hunt for treasures!"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, "Treasure hunting? ”

"There are such people, you have not been exposed to the antique business, so I don't know." The camel hugged his arms and said, "Sometimes in this world, it's hard to buy money, it's good to have a good heart!" The set of gold jewelry you are talking about may be that a rich family already has one and wants to match several other things, so he asks the treasure hunter to help him find it at a high price, and will buy it at a price several times or even dozens or hundreds of times higher than the jewelry itself. People die for money, so the other party went around to help him find it, and when he found it, he didn't buy it in a serious way, but robbed or stole it...... There are indeed a lot of theft cases in Tianxing Village, and if there is no life, it will be over, and if there is a life, it may be that the other party resists. ”

"The old lady seems to cherish that phoenix hairpin, maybe it's just a gift from her sweetheart, or a precious memory, so no matter how poor she is, she doesn't sell it." Zhan Zhao frowned, "I also look at the special treasure things closely, and if I find that someone is coming to steal it, I will be killed in order to protect the treasure, and it is possible." ”

"How long has this city bridge been in the market?" Bai Yutang asked the camel.

"Wow...... It's been too long, it's become a custom, let alone fifty or sixty years, and the stalls have come and gone, some of them for several generations. The camel thought for a while, "The gold shop of the old man is a time-honored brand, and speaking of which, it seems that someone in the ancestor of this old man is a tomb robber." ”

"That makes sense." Zhan Zhao said, "A few gold ornaments of Yang Guifei back then may have fallen into the hands of the palace nobles of the remnants of the Tang Dynasty and made a funeral. After the ancestor of the dry boss dug it up, it has been kept, and later the dry boss made a gold jewelry craftsman, and those gold ornaments are graceful and luxurious, and the design is exquisite, which can be used to make molds. ”

"That's it ahead." The camel pointed to a shop in front of him, and as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a commotion inside.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and saw an old man who looked like a craftsman, with blood on his arms, rushed out.

"Who committed the murder on my city bridge?!"

Before Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang could make a move, they saw the camel "sigh", like a cannonball, and flew directly through the window.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang rescued the injured craftsman, he was Qianxin Chen, saying that just now a group of black-clothed people rushed in and asked him to hand over the gold, and he happened to have a gold vessel in his hand that a guest asked him to beat. He thought it was just a robbery, and if he lost the guest's gold, he would smash the gold signboard, so he resisted and ran out with the guest's things.

Without waiting for Qianxin Chen to finish speaking, he saw a string of black-clothed people flying out of the gold shop, to be exact, they were thrown out, and they all fell to Zhanzhao's feet.

Zhao Pu and others also came, and when they saw it, those people in black were beaten half to death by the camels, lying on the ground without the power to resist, and there was no need for everyone to do it.

Arrest the person and send him back to the house, and Lord Bao will try it immediately.

Sure enough, these men in black are really the legendary "treasure hunters".

The reason for the incident is that three years ago, a big buyer had the golden skirt that Yang Guifei used back then, and he wanted to match the others. The buyer asked a few antique shops. The antique dealer saw that it was profitable, so he invited a treasure hunter to find these treasures.

A few men in black learned by chance that something appeared near Tianxing Village, so they came to look for it. They searched for more than two years with great effort, and indeed found a few pieces, but they also involved two lives, but they found that they were all fakes. So the treasure hunters wondered, could it be made of the same mold? After the last, through Li Yuanwai's wife, it was determined that the person who had the real product was a goldsmith! So everyone came to the city bridge, and it happened that they bumped into Zhanzhao and them.

Mr. Bao punished the relevant people in accordance with the law, and Wang Da, who had been guilty of an unjust lawsuit for three years, was also wronged. Of course, this time the case was solved, mainly thanks to the help of the two old-timers of the Demon Palace, Feng Chuanfeng and the Dark Camel, and Lord Bao thanked him a lot, which made the second old monster embarrassed.

However, Lin Yehuo still didn't understand, why did the big dog bark at the king?

After some research, Gongsun discovered the mystery......

It turned out that all the gold ornaments had to be packed in boxes of camphor wood, and over time, there was a fragrance of camphor wood on the gold ornaments. The peasant woman's gold ornaments have always been in that box, so the fragrance should be very agricultural, and it may be difficult for people to distinguish it, but dogs can definitely smell it. After Wang Da picked up the golden hairpin, he may have also smelled on his body, so the big dog barked at him at first. Later, when he was imprisoned for a period of time before he was released, the fragrance disappeared, so the big dog stopped barking at him and lived with him.

The first case on the broken dragon pattern scroll was easily solved, and Pang Yu watched Bao Yan complete the file with joy while starting to study the next case.

And everyone also left the house and rushed to the Demon Palace.
