Chapter 113: Tea Cans

Liu Zhonghuan left one step ahead of schedule, the business of Xinghe Restaurant was still open as usual, Liu Zhonghuan appointed a guy to be in charge, and he left Zhongjing in the name of going to Xinghe Winery to see the wine. This is a common thing, whenever the Galaxy Distillery brews new wine or the restaurant is ready to order a large scale, Liu Zhonghuan will go to the last trip and stay for three or five days; the guys in the store are accustomed to it, although the two are in the name of Galaxy, but the winery and the restaurant are not the same boss, Liu Zhonghuan just uses the method of paying a deposit in advance, monopolizing the sales of the winery, and has nothing to do with the owner of the winery.

Murong Yuan didn't believe it was so simple, and immediately chased after him, Murong Yuan felt that he had to make some achievements, and Murong Yuan was definitely more familiar with the situation in Zhongjing Dao than Yang Zhi, so he immediately threw the Xinghe Restaurant to Yang Zhi and went to hunt down Liu Zhonghuan himself. Yang Zhi sent people to find them, and the investigation made it clear that all of them were locals in Zhongjing, and after finding his family and Li Zheng as a guarantor, Yang Zhi gave a word and let them open as usual, but Zhang Nu took people to the restaurant, hoping to wait until Liu Zhongji came back.

Yang Zhi found a guy named Shanliu to lead the way, carefully searched Liu Zhonghuan's residence in the backyard, and left a voice, Yang Zhi estimated that Liu Zhonghuan had heard that he had found something in the well before leaving, and in a hurry, he might not be able to eliminate the traces cleanly, and he should leave some clues.

In the backyard, Liu Zhongjian has two rooms connected with separate locked doors, a bedroom and a study, and there is a cellar in the study that is dedicated to storing things; most of the shops in Zhongjing City are furnished like this, and the boss can have a private space and take care of some valuables by himself. There is no gold or silver in the cellar, only wine and cloth, there are few books in the study, and there are more than 20 cans of tea on the bookcase, all of which are packaged in white porcelain, which look exquisite and beautiful, and are the products of the Jiangnan kiln factory.

Yang Zhi opened the porcelain jar to see that it was empty, and turned around and asked Shanliu: "Do you shopkeepers like to drink tea?"

The Khitan people are mainly meat-based, and people with a little conditions pay attention to drinking tea to remove fat, but the general Khitan people like to drink the coarse tea of tea bricks, and the taste is heavy; these porcelain jars know at a glance that they are green tea with fine packaging, if they are genuine, the Jiangnan porcelain cans should be the tea leaves of Jiangnan. The Galaxy Restaurant is not an imitation of a restaurant in the Central Plains, but a place that caters to guests of the Khitan and other ethnic groups, and Yang Zhi feels a little weird.

Shanliu didn't know what happened to the boss, seeing that Yang Zhi didn't seal the restaurant, thinking that Liu Zhongji was just offending the powerful man, he smiled carefully and said: "These teas are used to entertain VIPs in the private room, and the shopkeeper just looks at the jar and puts it here as a decoration." ”

Yang Zhi didn't believe it was so simple, and asked with a smile: "Do you make tea in front of customers, or make a pot of tea for the guests to send in?"

It is necessary to use tea well to entertain distinguished guests, but Galaxy Restaurant has not yet reached the habit of arranging a person to make tea in front of customers, and Yang Zhi has not seen a small stove for making tea alone for guests in either the private room or the back kitchen. There are many cases in Bianliang, most of them are also in the Qinglou or a big restaurant accompanied by a singer, in the room, the beauty makes tea, every action is smooth, looking at the tea ceremony, appreciating the beauty, itself is a kind of enjoyment.

Shanroku gave a clear reply: "After brewing, send a pot of tea in." ”

This confirms Yang Zhi's suspicions, the price of these tea cans is not low, no one will give them away for free, since the guests can't see the tea cans, Liu Zhongji doesn't need these cans at all when he buys tea, and spends more money for useless packaging, and there is a bit of a taste of buying and returning pearls in it. From this point of view, Liu Zhonghua either had a knot in his heart for Jiangnan or had a problem with the tea house; Yang Zhi's attitude was even more gentle, and he asked Shanliu: "Do you know which tea house you bought these tea from?"

Shan Liu was stunned, shook his head and said that he didn't know, Liu Zhonghua went to buy tea by himself; Yang Zhi learned that Shan Liu had been a buddy for more than two years, and asked all the guys who didn't know where the tea house was, and basically could already conclude that there was a problem with the tea house, otherwise this kind of trivial matter would require the shopkeeper to run errands in person. Yang Zhi instructed Xue Libao to immediately arrange manpower to quietly look for this tea house in Zhongjing, even if he found it, don't startle the snake.

Xue Libao was stunned when he heard this, Zhongjing is so big, there are hundreds of tea houses, if you find this tea house, it will not be a day or two of effort, but Xue Libao is now a little confused about Yang Zhi's trust, since Yang Zhi said it, immediately take someone to find it. Yang Zhi saw that his subordinates were busy with their own affairs, so he asked Shanliu and the others to go to the front to do business, leaned on the chair in the study, and flipped through Liu Zhongji's books.

They are all books on architecture and cooking, in addition to a "Water Jing Note", Yang Zhi saw a book seal on the catalog page of the "Water Jing Note", and after careful identification, he recognized it as the book seal of the Shifang Zen Temple under the Great Xiangguo Temple, the Shifang Zen Temple is a branch of the Xiangguo Temple, and by the Cai River outside Bianliang City, Yang Zhi put away the "Water Jing Note", which may be a secret of Liu Zhonghuan. Zhang Nu rushed in to report, and Xiao Wei came.

Xiao Lili, dressed in civilian clothes and with five subordinates, leisurely waited for the wine and food to come up in the private room on the second floor, and when he saw Yang Zhi walking in, he said with a smile: "I heard that Murong Yuan is out of Zhongjing, and the Criminal Department can sue you, saying that Yuwenya and his wife are placed in prison without interrogation, and they are all fooling around outside." ”

Yang Zhi smiled and said, "General, this is the Criminal Department's attempt to meddle in this case." ”

Xiao Lili motioned for Yang Zhi to sit down beside him and said: "I understand, when it comes to picking fruits, no one's hands and feet will be slow, but they don't know that all the people who have correspondence with Yuwen Ya or have been recorded by Yuwen Ya in sticky notes, we have already arranged someone to investigate, and it will soon come to light." This restaurant is a new clue that you have discovered, tell us about the situation. ”

Xiao Lili's heart is very happy, since the gambling house, he and the King of Jin have made a lot of money, more people have been implicated in the Yuwenya case, and the final results will not be less; Xiao Lili is different from Yang Zhi, he and Yeluchun have discussed, Yang Zhi's discovery is a good opportunity, as long as there is evidence, even if the evidence is reluctant, it is necessary to expand the results of the battle, those who follow me prosper and those who disobey me die, and the officials who do not want to submit to me will be questioned, and it is a heavy questioning.

Yang Zhi told him about the temptation of Fang Niang, Xiao Wei sighed and said: "Yang Zhi, you still don't know Da Liao, the reason why Murong Yuan volunteered to catch up is for Liu Zhonghuan and the other for the winery, even if the winery has no connection with Liu Zhonghuan, Murong Yuan will implicate them, in order to get the winery and the recipe for winemaking." ”
