The old man took the car back to Wande Commercial Bank with satisfaction, Mu Qing sent him to the car, watched the old man's car disappear into the rain, and then returned to the hall.

Looking at the empty display cabinet in the distance, he suddenly remembered the phoenix peony that Yuehua had taken, and walked upstairs quickly to find Yuehua.

Zhou Yuehua stood by the window with his hands behind his back, with the account books and keys that had been sorted out on his desk, and Mu Qing saw at a glance that there was a deformed phoenix wearing peony on the account book.

He was shocked and shouted to Yuehua, "What are you doing here? ”

"You know the distress, don't you? Isn't that what you value the most? Zhou Muqing, now it's been ruined by me, hahaha. Yuehua laughed, "Your heart hurts, but you have ruined the things I value, and have you taken care of my face in front of so many people?" ”

"Big brother, you did it yourself, not someone else, and I didn't want to rob you of your position. It's just that this position is too heavy for you to sit down, from beginning to end it is your own choice, your own decision, and the consequences must be borne by yourself, this sentence I wanted to say to you a long time ago. Mu Qing's tone was tough.

"You're still qualified to warn me about that? Don't forget, who rescued you, and did you bear the consequences? If it weren't for the whole Wande to give you the bottom, you would still be standing in front of me and accusing me of being intact now? By the way, I also contributed to saving you, I don't expect you to admit my affection, I didn't expect you to treat me like this, my brother, it's really chilling! ”

Mu Qing was speechless by him, strictly speaking, he had to admit that Yuehua had some truth in what he said.

"This is the book and the key for you, aren't you going to sit in this position? Please. Yuehua turned and left the office.

Mu Qing sat down, looked at the jewelry that was pinched by Yuehua, and thought about inviting Master Guo to the office.

"Second Young Master, what are you looking for me?" Master Guo just put down the work in his hand and habitually wiped his hands.

"Master Guo, you have the best craftsmanship, and you made this again, let's see if there is any way to fix it?" Mu Qing handed him the broken jewelry.

The purer the gold, the softer it is, and it doesn't take much effort to break it, and Master Guo found that there were several claw wounds that supported the rubies.

"I'll give it a try. But it doesn't necessarily go back to the way it was. ”

"It's okay, you can try your best first, if you can't get these rubies, you can take them down." Mu Qing proposed.

"That would ruin the beauty of this piece of jewelry, but it's a pity for Ah Yi's proposal." Master Guo said regretfully.

"What did Li Yi propose?" Mu Qing asked curiously.

"In fact, it was Li Yi's idea to inlay rubies on this, and that day he brought me food into the operation room, looked at the phoenix wearing peonies, and proposed that the ruby inlay would be the most beautiful, and I also thought it was good, so I adopted it." Master Guo recalled.

"Was it proposed by Li Yi?" Mu Qing asked again.

"Yes." Master Guo replied affirmatively.

Mu Qing was silent after hearing this, and asked Master Guo to take the phoenix peony away.

The next day, Li Yi came to deliver the documents. Mu Qing looked at this person for the first time, Li Yi wore glasses and a round face and looked very kind, Mu Qing knew that he had excellent work ability, and he was often thoughtful in doing things, and he was indeed a competent subordinate. He has always been quiet, mellow and decent.

After reviewing it, he signed his name, and Li Yi closed the folder and left as usual.

Mu Qing was a little suspicious of himself, maybe it was just a coincidence, but after experiencing the disaster of prison, he retained a calm and wary attitude towards many people and things, and tried to be as cautious as possible in his conclusions.

How to verify Li Yi? Mu Qing's eyes fell on the account books, yes! Audit! He immediately took the account book and found the king's treasurer. A few days of busy work, dispatch and distribution, find out the details, reconcile the accounts... The two were so busy that they didn't find a big omission.

"Second Young Master, are we too sensitive?" Shopkeeper Wang was puzzled, Zhou Muqing was silent, and paced vigorously in the office.

There is something that is hidden deep beyond the paper.

"What is the origin of Li Yi?" Mu Qing asked suddenly.

"He, he came here five years ago, he was promoted from the counter clerk, his ability is obvious to all, he is happy and popular. At that time, when the eldest young master was in charge, he relied on him a lot, and many things were handled directly by him without going through me. So there are some things that I don't know. ”

"What friends or close friends does he have in the Silver Building?"

"Before, he had an assistant who seemed to be named He Qian, and then left for some reason."

"Do you have any information about them?"

"There should be one in the archives, you know we'll ask for a form when we join us."

Mu Qing thanked the shopkeeper Wang and went to the archives room on the second floor. Open the door, a row of large wooden cabinets against the wall, storing the history of Wande Silver Building. Mu Qing was in charge for a short time, and he was busy with changes, and then he was in prison, and he didn't have time to look through these old files, and now he had to extract the forms of the two of them.

He made a note of their addresses.

In the evening, the driver was instructed to drive a special trip to visit. Li Yi was not abnormal, but when he wanted to find the address of He Qian's house, he ran into trouble. The road became more and more desolate on both sides, and the driver couldn't help but ask, "Second Young Master, will anyone live here?" ”

Mu Qing looked out of the car window, the sky and the earth merged into one in the dark night, and the black spread out endlessly, like a beast devouring hope.

He hesitated, "Let's take a look." ”

At last there were sporadic lights in the wilderness, and he stopped to find a farmer's house, and when he inquired, he received the answer that he had never heard of the place.

It seems that He Qian left false information, and after this incident, Mu Qing can conclude that He Qian must have a problem, but whether Li Yi and Yuehua are involved still needs to be further verified. He Qian's clue is broken again, where to start?

Mu Qing made a difficulty.

Mu Qing watched Li Yi act coldly, watching him smile and smile every day, but he didn't know how true or false he was. What role does Li Yiqi play in the silver building? He decided to scare the snake.

"I heard that Deputy Manager Li was demoted to the counter by the second young master."

"Really? Such capable people are..."

"Don't talk nonsense, have you ever heard of a word? It's called the unpredictable heart of heaven. Say less and do more, work and work. ”

……

The staff talked about his appointment and dismissal of Li Yi, and when they heard someone say that he was unreasonable, and even upset Li Yi, Mu Qing smiled slightly.

Li Yi didn't say much, silently packed up his things and went to the counter.

Every day Li Yi commutes to work as usual, Mu Qing sends someone to monitor the alley where he lives, this person has always been alone, he lives in a simple place after work, and the family population is also simple, except that he seems to have an old woman who does housework, nothing else. Nothing was gained for a few days.

The calmer the situation, the more uneasy Mu Qing's heart became. If you can't show clues, you can't confirm his judgment.

Li Shaowen asked Zhilan for lunch. Wan Xinqiao is still bedridden, and everything at home is taken care of quietly. Zhilan was so idle that she didn't wait for Li Shaowen to pick her up, and went to Zhihe Commercial House with Yancui.

The two came out early, swaying on the jingling tram, and went in from time to time to shop in the big and small shops along the way, Zhilan and the others bought a cream ice cream to relieve the heat, if it weren't for the difference in clothing, others would have thought that the two were not masters and servants but sisters.

Walking slowly to Zhihe, it was not yet noon, Zhilan drove directly to Li Shaowen's office, and now the female clerk took her eyes and stood up to salute her, and said softly: "Madam, do you want to report it?" ”

Zhilan stopped with a wave of her hand, and she opened the door with Yancui and entered.

"Why are you here?" Li Shaowen put down the telephone receiver in his hand and said unexpectedly.

"I'm waiting around at home, it's better to walk around, with Yancui with me, I put the road in my mouth, it's much more fun."

"Then you sit here for a while, I still have a little more to deal with, and I'll be fine right away." Li Shaowen asked the female clerk to serve them tea.

Zhilan took a red sandalwood fan from her handbag and sat down to fan the wind, Yancui walked sweating, and drank the tea in a big gulp.

Li Shaowen continued to bury himself in the documents in front of the desk.

The female clerk knocked on the door and said, "Manager, someone is looking for you." ”

Before Li Shaowen could answer, a woman hurriedly rushed in outside the door, and said eagerly: "Young Master, how do you answer my husband's matter, he has been waiting for many days, and he can't wait any longer." ”

"Go out to the reception room and talk." Li Shaowen glanced at Zhilan and them a little nervously. Zhilan caught an unnatural trace of panic between his eyebrows, probably talking about some confidential matter, and it was inconvenient to be in front of them.

After Li Shaowen went out, only the master and servant of Lan were left in the office.

Yancui ate cold and drank hot, her stomach was out of place, and the pain was unbearable, and her body writhed slightly.

Zhilan found the big sweat on her forehead and the look that was difficult to hide, and asked, "Yancui, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Miss, I seem to have a bad stomach."

"Let's go, I'll take you to the toilet."

asked the female clerk for directions, she took Yancui downstairs, Yancui had fast legs and feet, and hurriedly walked in pain to take the lead.

Zhilan passed by the reception room. The woman's shrill voice came out: "...... Not only that, my husband said that Zhou Muqing was already suspicious of him, and he had been sent to keep an eye on him near the house he rented. He couldn't send the news, so he still sent Mrs. Song to bring me a letter, and now we don't know what to do, so we can only ask you for help......"

Li Shaowen's voice was low and he couldn't hear clearly.

When Zhilan heard the name Zhou Muqing, her heart suddenly chuckled. Mu Qing must be investigating something, and she has to help him.

Zhilan hurriedly crept past the door of the reception room, ran into the toilet, took out the pen and paper in her handbag, and quickly wrote:

"Mu Qing: Seeing words is like meeting. I don't know who you're looking for, I'm in Zhihe and saw his wife to ask Li Shaowen for advice, the specific content is unknown. Arashi characters. ”

Yancui cleaned her hands, and her abdominal pain was greatly relieved. Zhilan waited for her to come out, afraid that the door of the reception room would ring, she made a look, took advantage of no one's attention, pulled her to the door of Zhihe quickly, quietly stuffed the note into her hand, and whispered: "You hurry up and go to Wande Silver Building, you must hand it over to the second young master." ”
