Chapter 0029 Transferring the Tiger from the Mountain, Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
After Kou Ji painted a fake of "Spring Hip", he smeared a layer of yellow phosphorus on it.
Yellow phosphorus does not spontaneously combust when it sees air, it also has a corresponding ignition point.
In humid air, it will only catch fire when it reaches 30 degrees; In the dry air of Bianjing, it takes 40 degrees to catch fire.
Kou Ji had already inquired about the process of accepting goods from Donglai Pawnshop, so he knew that once Liu Heng sold the fake "Spring Hip" to Donglai Pawnshop, the shopkeeper of Donglai Pawnshop would definitely store the fake "Spring Hip" in the warehouse.
When Kou Ji heard Liu Heng swaggering through the market with a huge amount of money, he knew that the fake of "Spring Hip" had been put into the warehouse.
That's why he arrived at the Purple Qi Gambling House, and pretended to be stupid and specially chose a private room behind the Donglai pawn warehouse.
And when he arrived at the private room, he asked for two braziers, just to help warm the treasury of the Donglai pawnshop.
The Donglai pawnshop warehouse is only separated by a wall from the private room of the Purple Gas Gambling House, and it is a nearly sealed space, so it is particularly easy to heat up.
When the temperature reaches the ignition point of yellow phosphorus, the fake of "Spring Splash" will spontaneously combust, causing a fire in the Donglai pawnshop.
Of course.
Kou Ji did so much, not only to set a fire in the Donglai pawnshop, nor to connect Liu Heng and pit the Wu family for a fortune.
The fire in the pawnshop is just an introduction.
Kou Ji took Erbao and Kou Fu Chang with him, and went around all the way to Zhouqiao Street.
At the entrance of Zhouqiao Street, there was a team of officials standing there, seemingly waiting for someone.
Kou Ji greeted him and arched his hand.
"Wu Xian is gone?"
The man at the head bowed his hand and replied: "I just took the housekeeper and left the mansion in a hurry." ”
Kou Ji smiled and nodded, "Donglai pawned the water, and the "Spring Hip Picture" was destroyed, Wu Xian naturally couldn't sit still...... Do it. ”
"Good!"
The man at the head took the officials behind him, and under the gaze of Kou Ji, rushed into Zhouqiao Street.
They arrived at the Wu Mansion and knocked on the door of the Wu Mansion.
It was an old doorman who opened the door.
Without waiting for him to speak, the officials pushed him away and rushed in.
When the servants who were cleaning the courtyard saw this scene, they dispersed in a hurry, and some people quickly ran to the backyard to inform Wu Xian's wife.
After Wu Xian's wife got the message, she hurried to the front of the main hall and stopped the officials who were still rushing in.
"You are the one of the yamen, trespassing on the mansion of the imperial court, but it is a capital crime!"
Wu Xian's wife can be regarded as having seen the world, and in the face of a group of fierce and vicious officials, she was not flustered at all, but shouted loudly.
The man at the head arched his hand, "We are the officials of Kaifeng Mansion, and we are ordered to search your mansion. ”
After that, the man at the head took a waist card, barely glanced at Mrs. Wu Xian, and put it away without waiting for her to see it clearly.
Mrs. Wu Xian was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "The officials of Kaifeng Mansion, why are you searching our Wu Mansion?" ”
The man at the head said: "Uncle Guo lost a painting given by the queen in his house, and it is said that it has flowed into your mansion. Uncle Guo has already sued your mansion to Kaifeng Mansion, and the mansion has ordered us to come and search it. ”
When Mrs. Wu Xian heard this, she exclaimed: "How can the painting on Uncle Guo's mansion be in our Wu Mansion?" ”
The man at the head said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Is there any, I only know after searching." If not, your Wu Yushi can only impeach Uncle Guo; If so, everyone in your house will have to come with us. ”
"Search!"
As soon as the man at the head gave an order, the officials rushed out and began to search the Wu Mansion.
Wu Xian's wife wanted to stop her, but she was a little hesitant.
Wu Xian is not here, she can't make up her mind.
The matter involves the uncle of the country and the queen, and it is not something that she can decide.
Under the six gods and no master, Mrs. Wu Xian could only instruct the servants at home, "Go quickly, tell the master about this, and say that the people from Kaifeng Mansion have come to search the mansion, saying that they are looking for the paintings on the mansion of Uncle Guo." ”
Minutes and seconds passed.
Two quarters of an hour later, the officials returned from all over the Wu Mansion and gathered around the man who was the leader.
One of the officials nodded at him vaguely.
Subsequently, the officials reported separately that they had not found any paintings.
The man at the head arched his hand at Mrs. Wu Xian, "If you are offended, we will go back to tell the mansion that there is no painting of Uncle Guo's house in the Wu mansion." ”
When Mrs. Wu Xian heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it......"
The man led by the man bowed his hand to Mrs. Wu Xian again, and led the officials to leave the Wu Mansion quickly.
Out of Wu's mansion, they hurried to the mouth of the alley.
Koji was waiting for them at the mouth of the alley.
"Got it?"
"Got it!"
A rhino belt wrapped in brocade was shoved into Kou Ji's hand by one of the officials.
Kou Ji took it in his hand and fumbled for a while, and said to the Kou Mansion Chief behind him: "Is this one?" ”
Chief Kou nodded stunnedly.
Kou Ji carefully put away the rhino belt and said to the officials: "I have to work for you, I will be the east another day, please have a drink." ”
The man at the head shook his head and said, "No need, we are helping Gongzi do things, not helping you do things." If you want to treat our brother, it is also the son's reward, not you.
Our brother went first, farewell! ”
Kou Jiba clicked his mouth, and was about to speak, but the people had already left in a hurry.
He could only swallow the words of praise back into his stomach, sighed, and said faintly: "These parts and generals are really useful...... It's not a drag at all. ”
After sighing, Kou Ji put his hands behind his back and said leisurely: "Let's go home." The rhino belt has returned, and the trouble caused by my father is solved. The rest of the time, we will sit and watch the Wu family finish. ”
Erbao nodded innocently.
Governor Kou's entourage came back to his senses in a daze, and looked at Kou Ji with a stunned expression.
He didn't understand how Kou Ji had managed to get the rhino back.
Obviously, I just walked around the Qinglou, painted a few paintings, and gambled a few games, but I didn't do anything related to this rhino belt at all.
Seeing Kou Ji walking in the direction of Kou Mansion, Kou Mansion Chief Sui was a little panicked.
He didn't panic, he was the eyeliner sent by Kou Fu, and when he returned home, he would tell Kou Zhun what Kou Ji had done.
If Kou Zhun asked him, he didn't know anything about it, and according to Kou Zhun's temper, he would definitely punish him.
"Little master, you wait for me, I have something to say......"
"If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it when I go home."
"It's too late to get home."
“……”
After Kou Ji and the others left Zhouqiao Street for a long time, Wu Xian, who was still mourning at the door of the pawn shop in Donglai, got a message from the family in the house and returned to the house.
