Chapter Twenty-Six: Morun's Skills

"Master Zhao, that tail is gone" As soon as Yamamoto's rickshaw left the alley, the old man who had just chatted with Yamamoto entered the courtyard of the fifth master with two pieces of ocean, took the wet towel handed over by the fifth master and wiped it on his face a few times, and an honest and honest face was revealed. If someone who always messes around on the overpass sees it, they will definitely say that this honest man is somewhat similar to the blind man who is standing on the overpass.

"Okay, Meng San, you go to rest first" The tall man who was called Zhao Ye smiled and patted the honest man Meng San's shoulder, the fifth master who was still noble in Kojiro's shop just now was standing behind the tall man at this time. This tall man with a smile on his face is Zhao Zhi, and the fifth master who is full of nobility is the third helper that Zhao Zhi found, the fifth master was originally named Mo Lun, and he is indeed a disciple of the Eight Banners, but when Zhao Zhi found him, Mo Lun's family had already declined.

Zhao Zhi found this guy by chance, when Mo Lun was cheating in a pawnshop with a fake painting, Zhao Zhi was able to recognize it as a fake, because he had seen this painting in his previous life, as early as the time of the Eight-Nation Alliance, this painting hidden in the palace was taken to Europe. However, the painting in Mo Lun's hand is indeed difficult to distinguish from the real thing, and even the old courtiers in the pawn shop for decades did not recognize it, Zhao Zhi followed Mo Lun all day, and only at night did he tie Mo Lun back.

Zhao Zhi took a fancy to the person who forged the painting, thinking that since Mo Lun had a painting, he would definitely be able to know the whereabouts of the forger. Who knows, after Zhao Zhi heard the news repeatedly, this Molun who was a hanger was the forger that Zhao Zhi was looking for, which made Zhao Zhi overjoyed, and he finally had the capital to save his life in this era.

Although this Mo Lun is a hanger and does not do serious things, but this kid is a big filial son, from the family wealth to the four walls of the family, Mo Lun has never given up his blind mother, it is precisely because of this that Mo Lun is almost 30 years old, and he still failed to marry a daughter-in-law. In order to subdue this Mo Lun, Zhao Zhi hired someone to escort Mo Lun's blind mother all the way to Shanghai, and after Mo Lun received that his mother had been sent to the best eye hospital in Shanghai, he finally agreed to Zhao Zhi's request and repaid Zhao Zhi with his own fraud methods in his lifetime.

Taking Mo Lun to pretend to be the fifth master to tease Kojiro was Zhao Zhi's first plan, because in the information provided by Betty, this Kojiro was related to the kidnapping of Straw. After a careful investigation, Betty suddenly discovered that this person named Kojiro actually had a connection with the Black Dragon Society, and in his spare time, a restaurant that he often came and went in was a contact point of the Black Dragon Society in Beiping City.

Now that it has been determined that Kojiro and Straw are related, before he has any other clues, Zhao Zhi decided to use this Kojiro as a breakthrough first. As long as you can catch Kojiro's flaws, you can find their lair along the way, and maybe you can directly find the captured Straw. Kojiro is a businessman, his most fatal flaw is money, since Kojiro opened an antique shop, then Zhao Zhi took Mo Lun, who disguised himself as the fifth master, directly found Kojiro.

"Morun, what's wrong with your baby?" Seeing Meng San enter the backyard, Zhao Zhi turned around and asked Mo Lun. Mo Lunzu is the treasury of the internal affairs office in the palace, relying on the counterfeiting skills learned from the rivers and lakes, and often plays some tricks of changing the tanuki for the prince in the internal affairs office, and it has not been discovered by others for decades. Later, it was Mo Lun's old father who lost his words after drinking, and this page of the past was revealed, and Mo Lun's father and brother were poisoned because people in the rivers and lakes failed to ask for goods.

"Master Zhao, you come with me" Mo Lun led Zhao Zhi to a remote corner of the backyard, which was originally a place to plant flowers and trees, probably due to the negligence of the original owner's family, the flowers and trees died, and Zhao Zhi didn't have time to take care of the yard after renting here, so the surname Suo let this place be deserted.

"Master Zhao, you stand back first, wait a while" Mo Lun dug under the root of an old tree with a shovel, and dug a pit in a short time. "Master Zhao, look" Mo Lun leaned down and took out a large crockpot from the dirt pit, uncovered the lid of the crockpot, and a sour smell came out, and the smoked Zhao Zhi retreated.

"Morun, what is this? Why does it smell like this? Zhao Zhi covered his nose and retreated repeatedly, for fear that the sour smell would hit his body. Moren smiled, and nonchalantly put his rubber-gloved hand into the crockpot, and a piece of green stuff was fished out by Morun. "Master Zhao, look" Mo Lun washed the things in his hand a few times with clean water, and an object full of patina was revealed, which was an old bronze vessel, a bronze horn, which was the wine utensils of people in ancient times.

"Mo Lun, your kid has good skills" Zhao Zhi took the corner, flipped through it in his hand and looked at it several times, the thick layer of patina and earthy smell made Zhao Zhi love it, if he hadn't watched Mo Lun dig it out of the tree pit with his own eyes, Zhao Zhi would have regarded the thing he was holding in his hand as genuine.

"Actually, it's very simple, first scald the finished bronze ware with animal blood for half an hour, then soak it in my homemade potion, and finally bury it in the soil, soak it in urine for three days, and it will naturally grow patina," Mo Lun wiped his hands with a towel and pointed out the rust on the bronze to Zhao Zhi and explained. Mo Lun was obviously still very confident in his craft, and his face was faintly a little smug as he spoke.

"I've heard that those who specialize in fakes bury objects in the soil for years to get rust. It's only three days that yours can get these patina, not bad, not bad" Zhao Zhi played with the bronze horn for a while, and looked at Mo Lun who was wiping his face with satisfaction.

Mo Lun's mouth twitched, his face full of contempt, "What kind of craftsmanship are they?" They are all rusts made of animals and birds. This one of mine has been soaked in a potion, and the patina grows on its own, and the secret is in the potion I configured, and there is acid in it that can corrode the bronze, so there is something that can help grow patina."

"Master Zhao, I'm back" Yu Dazhi, who was sweating, entered the backyard, and his back was wet with sweat. Kojiro sent Yamamoto to follow Zhao Zhi and them, and Zhao Zhi also sent Yu Dazhi to follow Yamamoto, he wanted to see if this Yamamoto only obeyed orders with Kojiro. Because since Yamamoto kept up with him, Zhao Zhi found out through the window of the store that this guy should be himself, and Zhao Zhi wanted to find out her bottom.
