Chapter 158: The Empty City's Plan
Wu Fengyan, such as Si's name, must be a clear man.
Yugo and Dachun came to the Wujishan Warehouse according to the guidance of the stall owner, and sure enough, the general mountain warehouse, the goods are placed in a mess, a pile on the left and a pile on the right, even if it is neatly cleaned up, it is not as clean as the Wujishan Warehouse, those medicinal materials have been scrubbed, and the counter shelves are even brighter.
A guest arrived, the guy went in and shouted the shopkeeper to come out, the half of the door curtain was lifted, and Yugo saw a young man with a long body and a handsome face coming out of the fight, as soon as the guy introduced, Yugo learned that this was Wu Fengyan, and he had a good impression in his heart, and it was not he who killed Young Master Tian with the prayer sent by the ghost.
"You two want to buy some mountain goods? Come on, you've found the right place, I'm not big, but I have everything. ”
Wu Fengyan's exit is an authentic Beijing piece, Yugo was surprised, so he replied in a Beijing accent: "The old lady at home, I have a heartache, and I am afraid of cold, I heard that the Ruixiang of Changbai Mountain can treat heartache, and can also dissipate cold and fever, I don't know if you have it here?" ”
Wu Fengyan looked at her, and didn't say whether there was Ruixiang or not, but asked, "Brother is coming to the capital?" ”
Yugo nodded: "I'm in the medicinal herb business, and there is no authentic medicinal material like Ruixiang in Changbai Mountain in the store, so come to your store to take a look." ”
Wu Fengyan turned around and took an item from the shelf, handed it to Yugo, and asked, "Are you engaged in the trading of medicinal materials in the capital?" ”
Yugo looked at that Ruixiang, the rhizome is yellow and white, the skin is smooth, and there are many branches on the stem, this thing is also rare in the capital, Yugo looked very seriously, and replied to his words: "The roots of the Imperial City of Kyoto, the land is expensive, every inch of land is gold, I can't afford to open a shop, but I often go back and forth to the capital to buy or sell, and make money to support my family." ”
She said, pointing to the object and asking, "This is Ruixiang?" ”
Wu Fengyan nodded: "That's right, but if your wife wants to drive away the cold, it is better to eat some Ruixiang seeds, that thing is small, but it is strong, two of them are full of fever, and you don't need to wear a leather jacket on nine cold days." ”
Yugo's curiosity about medicinal materials almost made her forget what she was here for, and she looked surprised: "It's too mysterious." ”
Wu Fengyan turned around and took a small jar on the shelf, lifted the lid and gave Yugo a few things smaller than rice everywhere and said, "Ruixiang, I will count you at half price, and this one will be given away for free." ”
Yugo looked at Ruixiang and those seeds, and was a little confused: "How can you make money by doing this business." ”
Wu Fengyan smiled, smiling a little ambiguously.
Yugo's heart trembled, but fortunately Dachun was by his side.
Wu Fengyan said meaningfully: "The goods are sold by people. ”
This is a big deal, Yu Dai pondered the meaning, and at this time, Wu Fengyan handed Rui Xiang over, and rubbed the back of Yu Dai's hand with the back of his hand.
Taking advantage of others, Yu Dai hated it in his heart, this account was calculated on Ba Yi's head, who asked him to let himself investigate the case, after taking Ruixiang, he rubbed his hand on his clothes, and deliberately said thoughtfully: "Young Master Tian told me about Ruixiang, it doesn't seem like this." ”
Hearing Young Master Tian, Wu Fengyan's face suddenly changed.
Da Chun on the side helped: "Brother Xian, Young Master Natian has killed people, and now he has become an evil ghost, what do you mention him, it's weird,"
Yugo tilted his head to look at Da Chun: "Big brother, could it be that you also heard that the Tian family is haunted?" ”
Da Chun made it up and said: "Isn't it, it's quite fierce, that ghost doesn't catch the old, doesn't catch the young, doesn't catch the woman, and specializes in catching young men, or looks good, they all say that the ghost has dragon impotence, brother Xian, you say, where does the ghost have dragon impotence, hahahaha......"
Yugo suddenly hugged himself: "Really? ”
Da Chun's laughter stopped abruptly: "Of course it's true, I'm afraid I'll find you tonight, who made you look good." ”
Yu Dai trembled with fright, and suddenly pointed at Wu Fengyan and said, "Shopkeeper Wu, ...... behind you"
Wu Fengyan turned around sharply and shouted, "Ah! ”
Yugo and Da Chun looked at each other and smiled slyly at each other, Da Chun suddenly jumped into the counter from outside the counter, grabbed Wu Fengyan and shouted: "You killed Young Master Tian!" ”
Wu Fengyan was stunned, and when he realized what he wanted to quibble, Yugo said, "You still say it in the lobby." ”
Da Chun escorted the prisoners back to the yamen.
The reason why the two of them pretended to buy Ruixiang to investigate Wu Fengyan was that they were not sure that Wu Fengyan would harm people if he bought insect poison.
After torture, Wu Fengyan confessed to the crime, he is a native of Beijing, his family is a businessman, he is a young man who has no worries about food and clothing, probably because he has read too many Tang poems and Song lyrics, he has been that sentimental temperament since he was a child, and he often imagines himself as a delicate woman, so he does not marry when he reaches the marriageable age, the reason is that he likes men, and he is good with a young man, but the young man's family has given a marriage, and he married a wife when he arrives at the marriage date. Knowing that he couldn't stay in the capital, he came to Jilin Ula to join a friend of his father's business, and because his family had money, he opened this mountain store here, the business was not good, and the door was full of birds, but he took this opportunity to meet Master Tian, and the two fell in love at first sight, how could Master Tian and Lanxiang get married, Wu Fengyan once again lost all thoughts, so he repeated the trick and bought insect poison at night, and gave Young Master Tian a meal two days ago, and then Young Master Tian was poisoned and died.
The case was solved, and the matter of Jilin Ula came to an end, because the Mengjiang River had recently had several heavy rains, the water level of the Qinglong River had skyrocketed, and the dredging project had to be suspended.
Dredging the Qinglong River was so severe, Ba Yi arranged his official duties in Wula, Jilin, and set off for the Mengjiang River.
At this time, the old housekeeper Acton's foot injury was almost healed, because Yu Gengru was locked up in Mengjiang Prison, and Yu Dai went with Ba Yi.
The lively General's Mansion suddenly quieted down because of the departure of Yugo and Ba Yi.
On this day, the old lady had just taken a nap, called the big girl Ginkgo to serve her, wiped her face, smoked a bag of cigarettes, her son left, the old lady's heart was empty, sitting alone on the kang and sighing.
The bamboo curtain rattled, she looked up, and saw that it was Lan Xiang, and the maid Begonia on Lan Xiang's side was holding a bowl in her hand, and in front of the old lady, Lan Xiang bent her knees and said a blessing, and then took the bowl in Haitang's hand and opened the lid and said: "Eniang, my daughter made you a bowl of eight-treasure porridge." ”
The old lady glanced at her and said lightly: "It's just Laba Festival, what are you doing making Laba porridge." ”
Lan Xiang repeated: "It's eight-treasure porridge." ”
The old lady thought about it for a while, then she figured it out, patted her head, and sighed: "Recently, I have become more and more confused, and I am really useless." ”
Lan Xiang smiled and scooped up a little porridge with a spoon and fed it over: "E-niang is not old, it is her daughter who has not made it clear, she must have an empty stomach after sleeping, and dinner is still early, eat a little porridge to make up for it." ”
The old lady was fed by her, and after eating a few mouthfuls with an expressionless face, she pushed away: "Your brother is gone, I am worried about it, and I can't eat it." ”
Lan Xiang suddenly smiled coldly: "It's enough to eat these." ”
