Chapter 21 Interest
Zhang San came in with a copper kettle to add hot water, poured two cups of tea, and forcibly dragged Jin Liqun up and pressed him on the seat, and then stood silently behind Qian Yuan.
In essence, Qian Yuan is a suspicious person, he rarely can fully trust others, but for Zhang San, he chooses to trust.
It was not only Qian Yuan who saved Zhang San's father's life, but also Qian Yuan had to trust the other party, because he had no other available candidates, and Li Si was originally just a scholar, and he was a good hand at serving Shumo, and he was useless in other aspects.
Qian Yuan ignored Zhang San, who refused to go out, and looked at Jin Liqun, who was shrunk into a ball opposite, with a gentle smile, "Actually, I know that this matter has little to do with Brother Jin, and it doesn't even have much to do with Uncle Jin, the key is Zhang Siwei." ”
"The reason is very simple, the Jin family has been engaged in maritime trade for nearly 20 years, and has never heard of anything to do with the Japanese Invaders, and Zhang Siwei has something to do with the Japanese Invaders, if I remember correctly, Wang Zhi swallowed Chen Sipan, the largest maritime merchant in Fujian, three years ago, and Zhang Siwei made a great effort."
"Uncle Jin braved the snow to report the funeral a year ago, and I tried my best to support it after I arrived in Hangzhou, which I saw in my eyes and remembered in my heart."
Jin Liqun, who was frozen there, rolled his eyes for a long time, and only whispered after half a sound: "I...... I don't really know ......."
Qian Yuan sighed and said, "That's it, I'll ask, and you will answer." ”
"First, is Zhang Siwei the mastermind?"
"Second, where did my father and brother die?"
"Third, how do you know there's a secret recipe?"
The ingenious order of questions pierced Jin Liqun's already unstable psychological defense line like a sharp knife, and he blurted out conditionally, "Zhang Siwei is the mastermind!" ”
"I believe it." Qian Yuan nodded, "Where did you die?" As a son of man, you must not let your father not return to his homeland. ”
"No...... I don't know, but it is said that he met the Japanese at sea. Jin Liqun whispered: "They didn't plan to come to Ligang, but later they said that they would come here to find some overseas exotic flowers and fruits, and then ...... On the way back to Ningbo...... Should be...... No, it was arranged by Zhang Siwei. ”
Qian Yuan took a deep breath, it was he who asked his brother Qian Ze to collect some so-called "exotic flowers and fruits", because he knew that plants such as cotton, peppers, and tomatoes were originally introduced into China for ornamental purposes, and these maritime merchants were the most likely source channels.
"How do you know the secret recipe?" Qian Yuan clenched his fists.
Jin Liqun suddenly became nervous, and his cheeks bulged, "Yes...... It was discovered by Zhang Siwei. ”
Zhang San glanced over, "Young Master, he lied." ”
"No, no, I'm not lying, really, it was Zhang Siwei who found out, he found out that Uncle Qian was buying brown sugar......" Jin Liqun shouted nervously, accompanied by fierce gestures.
"Well, that's the little thing." Qian Yuan waved his hand, and his eyes fell on Jin Liqun's head and neck, "Hey, Brother Jin, what you are hanging on...... Kannon statue, right? ”
Jin Liqun, who was in scattered clothes, first covered his chest, but immediately took out the statue of Guanyin, pulled the rope and handed it over.
"Men wear Guanyin, women wear Buddha." Qian Yuan smiled, took it and took a closer look, it was really a good thing, the statue of Guanyin carved from mutton fat jade was exquisitely carved and lifelike.
After pondering for a while, Qian Yuan got up and went out, still playing with the Guanyin statue in his hand, and Zhang San behind him followed him like a shadow.
Qian Yuan looked back, Jin Liqun's eyes were dumbfounded, expecting the other party to accept the heavy gift and let him go.
"Young master, do you want me to use some means?" Zhang San was eager to try, "I used to learn a little bit in the industry. ”
"You've learned a lot, what's wrong? I want to be a cell boss. Qian Yuan pouted, "Your young master, I am a scholar, understand?" ”
Zhang San touched his head, "Really let him go?" The kid certainly didn't tell the truth, at least not yet. ”
"Your young master, I am a scholar, a gentleman and a cook, understand?"
"Young master, you often cook......"
"Oops, you've learned to lift the bar!" Qian Yuanxu kicked his foot over, "This sentence means that a gentleman must abide by benevolence and righteousness and cannot bear to kill." ”
"Can't bear to kill? Is that really a let him go? ”
"I am a scholar and a gentleman." The corners of Qian Yuan's mouth twitched, "But are you Zhang San a scholar?" ”
"No......" Zhang San looked back at the dark room, "You don't need to write a confession?" ”
"Well, let him write carefully, it doesn't matter if it's true or not." Qian Yuan said casually: "It's just interest, I'll go back to Hangzhou tomorrow, and the big head will be behind." ”
"Holo." Zhang San rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "It's better to follow the young master, this can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people, right?" ”
"Of course...... Just fight with Wu Song...... Well, it's the same as Lu Zhishen killing Zhen Kansai with three punches. Qian Yuan sent a high hat, these guys from the industry worship the heroes of Liangshan the most, in fact, Zhang San learned the characters with "Zhongyi Water Margin".
Watching Zhang San enter the house with a rope, Qian Yuan followed the principle of a gentleman and a gentleman to cook from the side, and thought about the next plan in his heart.
First of all, it can be determined that he did not find the wrong target, the murderers are indeed the Jin family and Zhang Siwei, although Qian Yuan has always believed in his own judgment, but the habits brought by his previous life always make him a little uneasy.
Hey, now it's more about people knowing, and later generations are more about the rule of law.
Secondly, it is certain that Jin Liqun must know the inside story, and what he just said is not true, and sending it down is just an interest.
Qian Yuan rubbed the statue of Guanyin in his hand, and thought in his heart, everything has a cause and effect, if he hadn't made a large amount of candy and asked his brother to collect strange flowers and fruits, then his father and brother would not have died tragically.
Speaking of which, his crossing is the cause, and the tragic death of his father and brother is the result, and he has to carry this debt, and he can't help but pay it back, and he can't shirk his responsibility.
The sky was already slightly bright, Qian Yuan frowned and looked at it, the room was already dark, Zhang San clapped his hands and walked from the aisle, nodding to indicate that the treatment was finished.
Qian Yuan muttered in his heart, this thing doesn't seem to have done this kind of thing once or twice, if he hadn't saved his parents' lives, he really wouldn't dare to keep them by his side.
However, in the feudal era, the word filial piety was basically linked to character, which was also the source of Qian Yuan's confidence.
Back at the temporary residence, Qian Yuan took out a letter from his bosom that had been written a long time ago, "Immediately send someone to set off back to Hangzhou, go by land, take five hundred taels of silver from the shop, and send it to Master Xing of the governor's yamen together with this letter." ”
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Zhang San nodded in response, and suddenly scolded in a low voice: "The surname Yang, what are the ghosts looking at!?" ”
Yang Wen, who walked out of the gatehouse, rolled his eyes and looked at Qian Yuan with his hands on his chest, "Are you going back to Hangzhou?" ”
"Well, you follow." Qian Yuan said as he walked: "Don't forget that you have signed the deed of sale. ”
Yang Wen snorted and turned his head to look at Zhang San, "Look at the legs of you people, do you know how to ride a horse?" ”
The northerners are good at horses, the southerners are good at boats, Zhang San's gang really don't know how to ride horses, at best, they can't fall, in Yang Wen's words, they don't dare to say that they can ride horses?
Qian Yuan stopped, "Will you?" ”
"Of course!"
"Alright, there you go." Qian Yuan patted Yang Wen on the shoulder, "If you want to run, send the letter and run again." ”
Yang Wen unconsciously lowered his body, and his shoulders dodged Qian Yuan's hand, "Who wants to run away......"
Qian Yuan's hand pressed down hard to fix the other party's body, and said in a deep voice: "Your brother killed the widow, I don't believe that you are a widow......
"Of course not!" Yang Wen's white face turned red, "My grandson is going to be a widow!" ”
