Chapter 110: Right Under the Eyelids
Xia Yue turned his head to Ye Caitang and said, "It seems that Wang Xi has changed this batch of jewels for a day or two. ”
Ye Caitang nodded again and again.
The shopkeeper was very cooperative, not only found out all the records, but also deliberately copied all the records related to Wang Xi because he was afraid that Xia Yue would take away the entire account book.
It made Xia Yue unable to find some faults if he wanted to.
And judging from the records, Wang Xi sold several things to the pawnshop, all of which were sold, so the shopkeeper was particularly cooperative, if it hadn't been sold, it would probably be a little sad.
Will Xia Yue confiscate these stolen goods and confiscate them, wouldn't his money be gone? The loss is too great, who knows what Wang Xi's situation is now, and whether he can be caught back.
After Xia Yue read it, he smiled faintly.
The laughing pawnshop shopkeeper felt chills in his heart.
"These things ......" Xia Yue flicked the freshly copied paper: "All sold?" ”
The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.
"I don't know who I sold it to?"
The shopkeeper was embarrassed: "This, I really don't know, we are all guests from the south to the north here, because Wang Xi is a frequent visit, so I know, if I come back occasionally, I really don't understand." ”
Again, I can't find anything wrong for a while.
The door was opened, and it was outrageous smoothly, Xia Yue put away the records and took Ye Caitang out of the door
There was a sugar gourd seller at the door, Xia Yue threw him a few copper plates and took a string of sugar gourds.
Ye Caitang has a little resentment towards Xia Yue tonight, and before he has time to say, adults like to eat sweet, eat too much, be careful to turn into a big fat paper...... Xia Yue stuffed the sugar gourd into her hand.
Don't eat for nothing, don't eat.
Ye Caitang crunched and bit the sugar gourd, and asked Xia Yue vaguely.
"My lord, have you ever eaten all kinds of sugar gourds?"
Xia Yue was puzzled: "What kinds of things?" ”
Isn't the sugar gourd just a hawthorn inside and a circle of rock sugar wrapped on the outside? Although the rock candy is sweet, it can't stand the sweet and sour of the hawthorn, and even if you don't want to eat it, you still have a feeling of saliva when you think about it.
Ye Caitang crunched and said: "It's just that the rock candy is wrapped in apples, bananas, oranges, pears, ......."
It sounds like it's all about changing the soup and not the medicine, although Xia Yue hasn't seen it, but he doesn't feel anything.
Ye Caitang continued to crunch: "Moon cakes, zongzi, rice balls, fritters, ......"
There were quite a few people on the road, and it happened that one of them heard it and glanced at Ye Caitang with strange eyes.
Could it be that this is a local specialty, in the rock sugar gourd, and those things are wrapped? What devilish smell is that?
Xia Yue took two steps faster, and opened a little distance from Ye Caitang, he felt a little embarrassed.
Ye Caitang looked at Xia Yue with a little embarrassed appearance, and laughed in his heart. I decided to wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival to wash my hands and make soup and make a few unique mooncakes for Xia Yue.
Xia Yue escaped to the second pawnshop, and there were only two pawnshops in the entire Qingquan Town. There are only two silver buildings with relatively large capital and relatively high prices.
Because it is close to the capital, the repressive impact of the imperial court is huge, and the six doors are full of majesty.
Xia Yue was not hindered in any way, and every shopkeeper knew everything when he heard the three words of Six Doors, and he said everything.
And the last one to go to was even more swollen in Xia Yue's cold face, crying and sad, and took out a box of various jewelry.
So much?
Xia Yue was a little surprised, other people's families, all three or five pieces, and it was a total number for a long time, most of them had been sold, only one, and one was in hand.
And this silver building brought out a box.
Xia Yue couldn't help but say: "You took these things, don't sell them, what are you going to do with them?" ”
The shopkeeper almost cried: "Lord Mingjian, I really didn't know that this was stolen goods." This Wang Xi sells spices all year round, so he often receives antique jewelry. ”
"I didn't stop selling." The shopkeeper was even more sad: "I haven't had time to sell ...... yet"
One sentence made Xia Yue reach out and pull the shopkeeper's clothes: "What did you say, did Wang Xi come just now?" ”
"No, not just now, it's daytime." The shopkeeper said: "He came over in the afternoon and sold these to me at a low price, saying that he was going to go far away." ”
Xia Yue really wants to beat up this shopkeeper, so I just asked for a long time, if you don't say it, what time is it with me?
Xia Yue's face sank, and the shopkeeper trembled.
"Do you know where he went?"
The shopkeeper shook his head again and again: "No, I don't know." ”
Seeing that Xia Yue's expression was a little terrifying, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "But I know where he lives tonight." ”
Xia Yue wanted to beat him even more, he was still panting when he spoke.
"Wang Xi didn't leave, he is still in Qingquan Town?" Ye Caitang hurriedly appeased Xia Yue and asked the boss: "Where does he live?" ”
"Yes, at the Sungai Inn." The shopkeeper spoke faster, and said in one go: "It's not that he doesn't want to leave today, but he will follow the caravan early tomorrow morning, saying that he wants to go out and go to the Western Regions, the environment over there is not good, and it is not easy for him to go." ”
Xia Yue didn't say a word, then dragged Ye Caitang and turned around and rushed out.
It's really far away, close at hand.
Sungai Inn is where they stay at night.
I really never expected that Wang Xi, who was looking for him, would be right under my nose.
Xia Yue took two steps, came back again, and dragged the shopkeeper of the silver building away.
Although he and Ye Caitang had never met Wang Xi, they were in the light, and Wang Xi was in the dark, so Wang Xi was not allowed to see them.
The shopkeeper had no choice but to follow, feeling uneasy, and discussed with Xia Yue.
"Your Excellency, your Excellency."
"Say."
"These things were given to me by Wang Xi today, I really don't know if they are stolen goods. I gave him three thousand denarii. The money must still be on him, I hand over the stolen goods, can the money be returned to me. ”
Wang Xi estimated that he didn't expect Xia Yue and them to come so quickly, he disposed of all the remaining inventory at a low price, took his wife and children, and planned to fly away. It's just so coincidental that I live with Xia Yue.
self-casting, not so accurate.
When he arrived at Shuangxi Inn, Xia Yue asked the shopkeeper to inquire, and it was easy to find out, Tianzi No. 5 room on the second floor, a family of three, and a husband and wife with a child.
The shopkeeper said that they had never come out since they had entered the room in the afternoon, and that dinner had been brought into the house to eat.
As soon as it was calculated, it was diagonally opposite Xia Yue and Ye Caitang's room.
Xia Yue really wanted to laugh, but held back. For the sake of safety, he still asked the shopkeeper to knock on the door, and he and Ye Caitang followed behind.
A family of three was inside, and the door should have been fastened from the inside, but the shopkeeper knocked and found that the door was unlocked.
With another push, the door opened.
