Chapter 19: The Purifier Purifies Himself
The second and third people all had ash on their hands, and Li Hang even kept adding some ash to them, so that as long as they really touched the bottom, they would be contaminated with ash on their hands.
A few scholars on the side understood it at a glance.
This is the deception of the criminal!
After a short time, after a few boatmen came in, Li Hang saw a different guy, a guy who was a little nervous, and his hands had been on his knees since recently.
That's it!
Yu Shida and Yuan Jishi on the side also saw it, but it was impossible for them to say that there was a problem with this person now, after all, even if this person had a problem, it was just pure speculation and needed evidence.
"Put your hands in there! Touch it down! Li Hang pretended to be a fairy wind bone, pointing to the jar in front of him and said.
This pipe is full of black ash from the stove, if he really touches it, then his hands will inevitably be covered with dust, if he doesn't touch it, it means that this person has a ghost.
"Good!"
After speaking, the boatman looked at Li Hang with a wince, looking at his appearance, and couldn't help but think of the words of those people just now.
These people are not intellectuals, and they are basically convinced of this kind of ghost and god theory, and in the case of physical evidence, this kind of ghost and god theory naturally spreads very quickly!
Naturally, the boatman had heard of this.
"Your Excellency...... You see! The boatman put his hand in and took it out at once.
Yuan Jishi on the side had already seen that this person's hands were different from before, and there was no ash on this guy's hands, which meant that he was a real thief. "Yes! You take him down! ”
Yuan Jishi scolded the family on the side, and the family took him to another room.
The other scholars looked at the eyes of the light, although this method was a bit despicable, although there was a suspicion of pretending to be a ghost, but it was undoubtedly quite effective.
After the group had all checked, there was a problem with the three boatmen!
All three boatmen were temporarily imprisoned.
Yuan Jishi was almost all recruited in the past interrogation. These people had to plan to steal something because of the poverty of their family, and they had planned to let a guy with good water trick to death in a few days, and then let him go back with the money from the sale of these porcelain.
Things were also found quickly.
It was tied with a stone and sunk near the pier.
"I just said, Lao Tzu wouldn't do this kind of thing at all, it turned out to be a few of you little rabbits!" Wang Dali was very angry, which almost slandered him.
picked up the little maza on the side and pounced.
"Come back vigorously!" Li Hang frowned and whispered.
Now that these people have been arrested, there is no need to tell them this, these people have their own laws that can be punished.
"Master!" Wang Dali looked at Li Hang with some grievances.
As if he didn't hit them a few times, he was angry.
"The clear ones are self-purifying, we don't need to care too much about what we haven't done in the first place, let's go back!" There was a weirdness in this matter from beginning to end, so Li Hang didn't plan to get into it, and he didn't even plan to take a look at the so-called precious porcelain.
"Let's go! Go home! ”
"Isn't Li Xiucai going to take a look?" Yuan Jishi touched his beard and looked at Li Hang.
"No need, Lord Yuan, I didn't care about this matter, but Wang Dali was involved, so I came to take a look!" Damn, this thing is weird everywhere, and I don't want to stay and get involved in this kind of thing.
Yuan Jishi smiled, clapped his hands and lifted the found box. "Turn it on! The old man went north this time not only for the sake of the academy, but also for this matter. ”
The four big men struggled to lift the box, and it was obvious that there was more than just some pottery in it.
Li Hang squinted his eyes and looked at the people in this room, after Yuan Jishi arranged it just now, not only a few scholars were arranged to go out to inform everyone, but also invited the shopkeeper Su in, after he invited Wang Dali out, there were only Li Hang, the shopkeeper Su and him Yuan Jishi left in this room.
"Shopkeeper Su! Li Hang, I asked you to be here today to testify to the imperial court! Yuan Jishi looked at Li Hang with a smile.
"The reason why Li Hang was allowed to stay is because you have seen the Su family's account books, so let me ask you, what is the difference between the Su family's accounts?"
"The last three months have seen a huge increase in cargo volume! Especially some of the porcelain ......"
Li Hang looked at this Yuan Jishi with some surprise.
Chinaware!
That's why he's here?
Looking at the wooden box, even the face of the shopkeeper Su on the side was a little unsightly, he reacted, this is a fucking play written and acted by Yuan Jishi!
This guy just wants to take advantage of this incident to make trouble here!
After the wooden box was opened, Li Hang looked at the layers of kraft paper inside in shock.
This is a waterproof measure.
After uncovering this layer of waterproof things, Li Hang saw the porcelain wrapped inside.
At a glance, you can see that it is not a precious product, this kind of thing is only afraid that there is something inside.
"Open!" Yuan Jishi said expressionlessly, but a pair of eyes were staring at the clay pot.
The clay pot was opened, and there was another layer of waterproofing measures inside.
After uncovering these waterproof measures, Li Hang gasped when he looked at it!
White!
It's not the kind of contraband that is smoked, there is no such thing in this era, but salt!
Li Hang looked at Shopkeeper Su with some shock.
This Nima is salt! And it's obviously not official salt, it's smuggled salt!
Li Hang was silent, this matter is really a bit big!
"Plopping" sounded, and the shopkeeper Su, who was still arrogant before, suddenly knelt in front of Yuan Jishi.
"Lord Yuan! Lord Yuan! At this time, the Su family didn't know, the old lady of the Su family asked me to come here, just because she found an abnormality in the accounts, so she called the villain to come and investigate thoroughly, but ...... However...... "The first thing Shopkeeper Su did when he came here was to check the accounts, and he didn't know what was going on, so he started to check after checking the accounts."
They only knew that something was wrong with the accounts, and the recent porcelain transactions had skyrocketed, but on the surface, there was no problem, and the shipping fee for this batch of porcelain was relatively expensive, so they didn't care. So I didn't pay much attention to it.
Li Hang glanced at Yuan Jishi, he didn't play a score now. Instead, he responded lightly. "If it weren't for the fact that the old lady of the Su family was not involved, I am afraid that this time I would not let the old man come to the secret investigation, but let people go directly to the Su family to get people!"
Shopkeeper Su only knelt for a few minutes and was already in a cold sweat, this man now understands how dangerous this thing is, in a sense, at this time, the Su family has already walked around in front of the ghost gate.
"Li Hang! You go with the old man now, and go to reconcile with the old man! Yuan Jishi glanced at Li Hang, and then nodded at a few of his subordinates on the side.
Out of it came a bookkeeper.
He brought it over to check the accounts.
"No need, at that time, in order to compare and audit the accounts with the Su family's accounts, so when the Su family's accounts were checked, I left a copy of his accounts here! It's under my bed, but the way it's recorded is a bit peculiar, and I need this gentleman to take a good look. Li Hang didn't plan to get involved in this matter.
But looking at the begging eyes of Shopkeeper Su, he sighed. "Don't worry, Su shopkeeper, although I am not a gentleman, but I am by no means a villain, I can't do things that fall into the ground, what the Su family has done is responsible for themselves, but the Su family has not done anything, and there is no need to worry about outsiders framing me, as I said, the clean person will clear himself!"
Shopkeeper Su wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and then he was relieved, as long as Li Hang didn't add oil and vinegar, the Su family would definitely have nothing to do, after all, it was a family that controlled Caoyun, not only in Caoyun, but even there were people from the Su family in the court, and if they wanted to move the Su family, they had to weigh it.
But if this smuggling of smuggled salt really happened to a huge pot of on the Su family's head, they would definitely not have a good time. As soon as he heard that Li Hang would not fall into the ground, but would just follow what was said in the account books, he was relieved.
There is no problem with the accounts! Shopkeeper Su has absolute confidence in this.
