Chapter Ninety-Seven: Clues from the People Behind the Scenes

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yan Zhuo took a step forward and smiled gently: "Disturb you." Today's wind is strong, autumn is coming, let's take a look at the shelter here. ”

The man swept his eyes over her, snorted coldly, and sat back without answering.

Bai Yi was inexplicable, and wanted to go forward, but was pulled by Bai Yu and said in a low voice: "Go back first." ”

Several people went out.

Zhizhi spoke in a low voice, "Are these people refugees?" I don't think I'm like bandits, they seem to have lived in it for a long time, but this place doesn't look like a house! ”

"Aunt Six did it on purpose!" Bai Yi said hatefully: "She knew that this place had been occupied by refugees, so she deliberately tricked us into coming. ”

Bai Yu corrected him, "These don't look like ordinary refugees, but like people from the beggar gang." ”

Yan Zhuo glanced at him, she was in the same mind as him.

"Beggar gang?" Zhizhi and Bai Yi spoke at the same time.

Bai Yu explained: "In the war, there are many homeless and dispossessed people, and some people are organized to do short-term work, beggars, and even steal and cheat, occupy territory, and gradually develop into a huge beggar gang.

"It's very troublesome to get into trouble with the beggar gang, although they don't have much power, but they have a large number of people, and they have always had favors and revenge, and the government can't do anything about these people."

"Then we can't live in this yard even if we have a deed?" Bai Yi was angry, "I'll find the sixth aunt to reason!" ”

"Don't worry." Yan Zhuo grabbed him.

"Let them vomit too much, Bai Shixin will not really cut his own flesh, and if he wants to cut it, he will cut it from the rest of the Bai family, so that hundreds of people in the clan will hate us.

"If we push the people into a hurry, we won't be able to do anything. This courtyard is a long-term plan, we can live in that small courtyard for the time being, and finish our business. ”

Zhizhi also agreed to this method: "If it really doesn't work, you can still live in my house." ”

Bai Yi's face turned red, "I just hate Aunt Six for playing with us!" ”

Bai Yu patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Bai Shixin eats it, and sooner or later he will spit it out." ”

When everyone returned, the atmosphere was not as high as it had been.

Yan Zhuo lowered his head and pondered something else.

Just now she glanced at it, and her heart was mixed.

This Cunyi Hall doesn't look like a house, but a ready-made jade field!

Open courtyards, corridors, and wing rooms are in the shape of a hollow figure, and storage, supervision, and circulation are all excellent operations.

If the rough stone of Meiling is taken out, after cutting the planed material, it just needs a place that can be polished and carved.

In this way, the problem of the Yuchang warehouse was solved.

Raw materials, of course, are Meiling jade mines, shops, there are ready-made He family shops, goods channels, this can find a contact person of Baofeng Shop, there are still two problems left.

One is manpower, and the other is security.

For such a large jade mine to operate, it must have at least hundreds of people!

……

In the Gao Mansion, after Bai Shixin left, it was still a faint candle.

Gao Huai played with a glass-inlaid emerald wine glass, and listened to the entourage report on the situation in Baiyun Village.

“…… The leopard died, and the twelve men who went with him were executed to the blind. The first three coffins in the tomb, one is the coffin of the first emperor, and the spiritual seat of the Qian royal family, one should be Bai Lao'er, and the other is unknown, there is nothing you want. ”

Gao Huai narrowed his eyes, "Interesting, this Bai family, Bai Shichen...... Something interesting. ”

He changed the wine glass to his other hand, and seemed to say to himself: "I didn't think the orphans and widows of the Bai family were so capable before? If it is a coincidence that Bai Dalang was rescued by the rebels by mistake, then how did they find the cottage? How did you force the blind man to hand over the mountain leopard? ”

The more you think about it, the more interesting it becomes.

"It's weird." The entourage said: "But the one who went to the cottage is the bride married back by Erlang of the Bai family, the seventh lady of the He family, who is the He family who always robs business with our Jinfenglou." It is rumored that the Seventh Lady is a fool, but now it seems that not only is she not stupid, but she also has some skills.

"According to our eyeliner, she brought a maid into the village alone to meet the blind man, saying that she was going to do business, but the blind man sent the mountain leopard and all the goods he didn't sell back to the Bai family in a proper manner!"

"He Qi Niangzi?" Gao Huai rubbed his chin and came to the spirit, "Bring it and take a look!" ”

……

Early in the morning of the second day, the four of them went out and were busy with their work.

Yan Zhuo and Bai Yi's task is to start with Sun Cheng's staff, Feng Guang, this clue.

Fortunately, Sun Cheng asked about Feng Guang's residence that day, and the two went straight to the alley.

When asked, the only widow left in the family moved.

Or died outside.

Anyway, the neighbors all said that they hadn't seen anyone from this family since the accident at Sun's house.

Yan Zhuo has the bottom, and sure enough, what this person is holding behind is the man behind the scenes!

The people behind them are quite delicate, and they didn't even let go of the old widow!

But there is another way, that is, the wife and children who were beaten away by this Feng Guang.

The two of them searched in the alley for most of the day, and finally found out from an aunt who sold salted duck eggs at the mouth of the alley that they had seen the man's wife Wang in Liulinfang, Dongcheng, as if she was doing short-term work in a family surnamed Lin.

Yan Zhuo and Bai Yi went straight to Liulinfang to find someone surnamed Lin.

Fortunately, the surname Lin in that alley was a big family, but he found it quickly, and it took a few taels of silver to finally ask someone to invite the Wang family out.

When Wang saw the two of them, he shrunk and wiped his hand on his apron, "Who are you?" ”

Yan Zhuo smiled and said, "Aunt Wang, we want to ask you about Feng Guang." ”

When Wang heard Feng Guang's name, his whole body trembled, "What do you want to ask?" Is it his enemy? ”

Yan Zhuo heard what she meant, and said strangely: "What about the enemy? ”

Wang gritted his teeth, "If it's an enemy, I'll answer whatever you ask." ”

The one who can find her here to inquire about the news will not be a friend.

Yan Zhuo smiled slightly, this eldest sister is quite interesting, "Feng Guang is dead, don't you know?" ”

Wang was really stunned, "Dead?" ”

Yan Zhuo nodded, "The Sun family is gone, so it's not strange that he died outside with Sun Cheng." ”

"Phew!" Wang took a sip, "He won't follow Sun Cheng to death!" ”

Yan Zhuo was stunned, and glanced at Bai Yi, it seems that this trip was not in vain!

"Why?" Yan Zhuo asked, "Isn't he Sun Cheng's person?" ”

The Wang family seemed to hate Feng Guang very much, "He's not a human at all!" As long as whoever gives him money, he can even sell his own son! ”

Yan Zhuo raised his eyebrows, no wonder the Wang family wanted to leave with his son.

It is really normal for such a person to betray Sun Cheng.

"Do you know if anyone has given him a large sum of money lately?" Yan asked carefully.

Wang frowned and shook his head, "I don't care where his money comes from, besides, I left with my teeth half a year ago, and at that time he got close to Gao Peng's thief, and he went to drink and gamble with the Gao family every day, but then I didn't know." ”

"Gao Peng? County Commander Gao Peng? Yan asked carefully.

Wang sneered, "It's not him!" Dressed in human skin, doing everything is not a human dirty deed! ”

"What's wrong with Gao Peng?" Yan asked carefully.
