Chapter 299: Re-investigation of the fire

Dongfang Yi saw that Nalan Jin was staring at him seriously, Ying Chi was not targeting Li Zheng, and besides, Nalan Jin was not a person with a small belly.

I haven't met Li Zheng for so many years, and occasionally I have heard the elders mention Li Zheng as a person, and they haven't worked together.

The so-called knowing people, knowing faces, not knowing hearts.

Nalan Jin's words woke up Dongfang Yi, he smiled and wiped the rice from the corner of Nalan Jin's mouth, and then stared at the dishes on the table, thinking.

Dongfang Yi did not directly agree to Li Zheng, but slowly tested Li Zheng first.

Li Zheng was worried about the partnership and didn't close his eyes all night, and the whole person was mentally exhausted.

Early in the morning of the second day, before dawn, Li Zheng hurriedly rushed to the workshop one step ahead of Dongfang Yi.

"Dongfang, you came early, have you had breakfast?" Li Zheng awkwardly pulled the topic.

"Not yet, the workshop has an urgent batch of goods to replenish, I'm afraid it's too late to have breakfast." Dongfang Yi stared at Li Zheng's dark circles, "Is it sick that your face is so haggard?" ”

Dongfang Yi saw that Li Zheng was sluggish, and was worried that he would become more and more emaciated because of the poor care of Nalan Mansion.

"Don't worry, the ghost story didn't sleep well last night, what I said yesterday ......" Li Zheng asked again with a twisted irrelevance.

"Oh, there's no hurry in that matter, I need to add here, but I still have to collect rent and can't leave, you help buy this batch of goods." Dongfang Yi took the list of goods from the cabinet to Li Zheng.

"This ...... I ......" Li Zheng suddenly felt a little flattered.

"What's wrong?" Dongfang Yi looked at Li Zheng's stumbling appearance, "Oh, it seems a little abrupt, if it's inconvenient, I'll send someone else to ......" Dongfang Yi put away the list and just wanted to turn around, but was stopped by Li Zheng.

"Convenient! I'm always handy! I just can't believe you're entrusting me with such an important matter. Li Zheng excitedly and cautiously took the list in Dongfang Yi's hand.

"That's good, this is silver, go and come back quickly, this batch of goods is in a hurry, don't delay."

Dongfang Yi pinched Li Zheng's shoulder, as if to remind him and give him a piece of advice. However, Li Zheng weighed the silver in his hand, his eyes were shining, and he didn't listen to Dongfang Yi's explanation at all.

Just listened to Dongfang Yi's voice echoing in his ears, and nodded in response.

Dongfang Yi looked at Li Zheng's eyes open and shook his head worriedly.

Li Zheng took the silver and visited many merchants, compared several ones, and later targeted a very inconspicuous small shop.

The reason is because Nalan Mansion has never cooperated with here. It's good to do it secretly like this.

"Guest officer, what do you need, we have a new high-quality product here, you can take a look." The store enthusiastically introduced Li Zheng.

"Take out your most inferior goods here, and I want as much as I want." Li Zheng knocked on the counter and said playfully.

"Sub-...... Substantial? What do you want to do with secondary goods? The shopkeeper was a little surprised to look at the color Li Zheng.

"You don't care about this, I will buy your inferior goods at a price of thirty percent." Li Zheng happily threw the silver to the store.

When the shopkeeper saw that there was enough money for him to close for several days, he didn't ask any more questions.

"Xiao Er, bring all the secondary goods in the backyard to this master." The shopkeeper hurriedly instructed the shopkeeper to close his mouth with a happy smile.

The shopkeeper is also curious, but he can only obey the boss's orders.

Li Zheng opportunistically bought the inferior goods at a price of 30 percent, and he also sought a 70 percent kickback from it.

I think what I do is seamless.

Li Zheng took the secondary goods to the East House, he was dealing with the things on the account, just looked at the quantity and nodded into the warehouse.

Seeing that Dongfang Yi did not suspect that the inferior goods entered the warehouse safely, Li Zheng was secretly proud in his heart, and all he was thinking about was the silver kickback.

A few days later, someone came to place an order for the goods that Li Zheng bought back, and the quantity he asked for was quite a lot. Dongfang Yi was worried that Li Zheng would not buy enough back, so he went to check it in advance.

It turned out that there was a big problem with the goods Li Zheng bought, not only because the color looked different from before, but also because the weight was different from the previous one.

Dongfang Yi touched it with his hand, and it didn't feel right, so he hurriedly called Li Zheng in.

"Which merchant did you buy this product from, and how is it different from the previous one?" Dongfang Yi took the goods to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng looked at the goods piled up in front of him in a panic, and finally had the opportunity to get close to the core of the workshop, a great opportunity to make money, and he must not show his feet.

"Really? Impossible, right? I checked it carefully when I bought it, and there is no such situation as you said. Li Zheng also pretended to be kept in the dark and carefully inspected the goods.

"That's ...... Then you show me the merchant's receipt for you. Dongfang Yi stretched out his hand to beg for it.

"Oops......" Li Zheng pretended to pat his head, "Why did I forget, I'll go back and ask him." ”

Li Zheng looked at Dongfang Yi seriously, and then took the opportunity to slip away.

Dongfang Yi looked at Li Zheng's back as he left suspiciously, full of doubts. Something like this had never happened to the workshop before.

There were also no flaws in the incoming cargo.

Why did Li Zheng take over, there was a problem, is it really a coincidence? Or is it intentional?

Dongfang Yi didn't want Li Zheng to take over the issue of the director of the cargo department, and when the time came, Nalan Jin caused any misunderstanding, so he quietly entered the goods again.

After that, Li Zheng avoided Dongfang Yi intentionally or unintentionally for many days, and his wealth was also reined in a little.

"Li Zheng, come over here." Dongfang Yi waved his hand to let Li Zheng pass, "What about the receipt I asked you to get before?" ”

Li Zheng was about to leave, but was caught by Dongfang Yi and blocked at the door, so he couldn't avoid it, so he had to face it hard.

"Oh, didn't you say I almost forgot, didn't I send it when I said I was going to send it?" Li Zheng pretended to be helpless and shrugged his shoulders with a smile, "It's been a bit busy these days, you know, so I didn't bother for a while." ”

Li Zheng quietly lowered his head, looked at Dongfang Yi cautiously, and broke out in a cold sweat because he was afraid of his forehead.

"Then you put ......"

Dongfang Yi wanted to ask Li Zheng for the address of the merchant, and personally went to ask the merchant for the receipt back, and asked about the goods by the way.

At this time, the guy next to him was a little out of number and yelled loudly.

"Okay, I'll come over here." Li Zheng screamed, interrupting Dongfang Yi's words and hurriedly slipping away.

Dongfang Yi had no choice but to give up.

Li Zheng saw that Dongfang Yi didn't pursue it anymore, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally let go.

If the cargo matter is not handled, sooner or later it will be a tricky matter. Li Zheng was in a hurry, so he went to the merchant to open a fake receipt.

Nalan Jin Seal was busy looking for the truth about the fire, so he didn't have so much time to take care of the affairs of the workshop.

In the blink of an eye, Nalan Zhen's Sanqi is approaching, Nalan Jin is wrapped in plain clothes, and she has no leisure to manage other things.

Nalan changed to hide in Nalan Zhen's house tonight, and after so long, there was no concern about the fire. She sat alone in the room in front of Nalan Zhen, alone in a sad daze.

The whole Nalan Mansion is silently mourning for Nalan Zhen's matter.

According to Nalan Jin's explanation, the Li family did not relax their vigilance for a moment, and kept secretly looking for clues.

However, upon investigation, Lee found that the clues she was looking for seemed to have been deliberately arranged by someone else, deliberately indexing their lines elsewhere.

Then I found the origin for no reason.

Lee is like a marionette being led by the nose by others.

So, Li had a bold idea, so he hurried to Nalan Jin's courtyard to find her. But Nalan Jin's house was already empty.

"What about Jin'er?" Li turned to the maid next to him.

"The young lady went out early in the morning, and she should have gone to the old man's house." The maid saluted.

Li thought for a moment and remembered that today was Nalan Zhen's March Seventh Day, so he went straight to Nalan Zhen's house.

Not to mention, Li walked to the door of Nalan Zhen's house, and lingered for a long time before entering because he was scared in his heart.

"Jin'er, are you in the house?" Li tentatively pushed the door in.

"Little aunt, I'm here." Nalan Jin said coldly and suddenly, and the frightened Li shouted.

"Ahh Startle me, why did you suddenly speak out. Li clutched his chest in fear.

"Little aunt, what are you afraid of, it's not that you haven't seen me." Nalan Jin looked at Li with disgust.

"Of course I know you, it's not in the old man's house...... It's a bit of a sneak peek. Li Shi looked around the room in fear and shivered.

"Is there anything wrong with the little aunt finding here?" Nalan Jin sighed speechlessly.

Li walked to the window and let the sun shine on him, if his body was warm, his heart would not be so afraid.

"I've been investigating for a long time lately and found me

We are all following the pace of others, and it is completely a clue arranged for us by others. Li Shi looked at Nalan Jin seriously.

"What do you mean, could it be that someone else was involved in the fire?" Nalan Jin looked at the color Li in surprise.

"It's not certain yet, but one thing is for sure, we've been standing still and haven't come out of a circle at all." Li recorded all the clues he had found in the past few days on paper and gave them to Nalan Jin.

Nalan Jin took a look at it, and it was indeed a little interesting. Strange not to mention, so many characters in the clues are all around Nalan Mansion in the end.

"This ...... How does it all have to do with the people in the house? Nalan Jin was even more puzzled.

"So after I had a bold idea. Since these people are inseparable from Nalan Mansion, let's start with the people in Nalan Mansion and re-investigate. Li patted the clues of those investigations.

Nalan Jin walked around, thought for a long time, and then connected the tasks on the evidence and looked at them carefully.

"Okay, it just so happens that I can't find any favorable clues in the past few days, so I might as well be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, throw everything before, and start again." Nalan Jin nodded in agreement.

"That's the best, I hope the old man blesses you and has a good start." Li also nodded with a smile.
