Chapter 270: Wang Zhiqiang
Wang Zhiqiang said with a smile: "My family is hot now, and he can remember the old feelings, whenever he thinks of Ling Zun, he sighs, and often blames himself for not protecting you, Brother Li, and now I see you grow up,
Naturally, I am happy in my heart, with the support of adults, whether you are in business or business in the future, or independent sect, it will be a matter of course, and don't forget my brother and me when the time comes!"
Li Chongyuan smiled bitterly: "It's better to wait until the real murderer is caught and the suspicions of everyone are cleared, if the murderer cannot be found within the time limit specified by Lord Tian, I will be unable to escape the blame." Wang Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Didn't Lord Tian stipulate half a month, there are still ten days to go!
Li Chongyuan said: "I'm not in a hurry? I'm about to die in a hurry, and I've been floating in the river for five days, so I look forward to arriving in Luoyang as soon as possible and delivering the goods so that I can find the murderer!
Wang Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Brother, you don't understand this, if you say that you are in a hurry, Wang Xinze will be more than a hundred times more anxious than you, because the time limit is up, no matter whether you catch the murderer or not, you will naturally have Lord Tian to open up for you, what about them? They have to go to the prison obediently." But why did he still send the goods to Luoyang?
As long as the people who planted the bribes saw that the cargo ship was safe and sound, they would not be able to hold their breath when they arrived in Luoyang, and if they could not hold their breath, they would take action, and as soon as they made a move, they would show their feet.
Besides, the destination of the boat was originally Luoyang, and Luoyang must have the murderer's eyeliner, so. If you want to investigate the case, the first stop is Luoyang, otherwise. In your opinion, don't lose the cargo ship, and concentrate on investigating the case, but where can you investigate this person in the vast sea? Since there is nowhere to check, then simply let them come to you!"
Li Chongyuan secretly admired it, and couldn't see that a rude man like Wang Xinze had such a delicate mind!
In the torment of living like a year, the fleet finally arrived in Luoyang.
There is a special person in charge of the delivery of goods, and there is no need for Wang Xinze to stare at it. Wang Xinze led Li Chongyuan, Hao Li and others ashore and went straight to the casino, Luoyang is the water and land wharf of the thoroughfare of nine provinces, and it is extremely prosperous. There are probably nearly 1,000 casinos of all sizes. However, people divide things into groups and gather like them, and this gambler is also divided into three, six, nine and so on.
Most of the casinos in the north of the city are places where the rivers and lakes gather and gamble, and these places can also recruit killer assassins in addition to gambling. I can also sell stolen goods. You can even bet on stolen goods, because this place is full of arowana,
Vendetta and killing are almost every day, and it is the most chaotic place in Luoyang City, and even the officials of the government do not dare to go easily, and they certainly dare not go if they are not from the rivers and lakes; the casinos in the south of the city are mainly places used by wealthy businessmen and dignitaries for recreation, and the casinos are generally also engaged in the trading of green buildings.
Without a thousand charming women to accompany them, those old men are too lazy to bet heavily. The most expensive girls in Luoyang City are concentrated in this area, and the wrapping of the head for the spring night is at least a thousand taels of silver, and in such a place, people who are dressed like this can't even enter the door, so they don't need to go to the south of the city to find it;
As for the casino in the east of the city, it mainly entertains local gamblers, and outsiders are easy to be bullied, and outsiders generally do not go, and the people who cut off the finger are the accents of the capital, and they must not be local aborigines, so it is unlikely to go;
There is only the Chengxi Casino left, the gamblers of the Chengxi Casino are generally passing merchants, sailors, dart masters and others, this place is close to the yamen and the military station, the security is very good, the stakes are not big, the surrounding taverns and restaurants and girls who sell spring are cheap. It is most suitable for the identity of the finger man. There are twenty or thirty casinos in the west of the city, which is easy to find.
Wang Xinze is very familiar with the casino in the west of the city, and spent a day asking back and forth, and those casino owners all said that this is a customer of the iron gambling house, who remembers how many fingers the gambler has?
As for the people in the Dragon and Phoenix Dart Bureau, no one has ever seen it. Wang Xinze had no choice but to return to the ship first and then find a way to come back from the west of the city, but Wang Xinze led Li Chongyuan to the Chengbei Casino, the characters of the Chengbei Casino are complicated, but the north and south are extremely well-informed, Wang Xinze sometimes comes here to find someone to inquire about information, many people here are themselves to inquire, and sell information in exchange for money. He found a few well-known bags to inquire,
Asked about the broken finger and the dragon and phoenix dart bureau, and these people said that there were more people who lost money here and were forced to cut off their fingers, who knows who you are looking for, as for the people of the dragon and phoenix dart bureau, they all said that the dragon and phoenix dart bureau was involved in the danger of stealing tax and silver, and they had already been arrested by the Caoyun Governor's Office. If you want to find someone, you will probably have to go to prison.
After spending a day and still finding nothing, Li Chongyuan and the others couldn't help but be depressed, left the casino in the north of the city and walked back, just walked to the alley, they heard someone talking in the alley, and someone shouted viciously: "You kid is so bold! I owe gambling debts in the west of the city, but I ran to the north of the city to gamble, damn! This place in Luoyang City is a big palm, do you think Lao Tzu can't find you?!" Then there were a few loud slaps, and then another person pleaded: " Uncle, the little one is not hiding from debts, the little one is here to buy some news, and change the silver to pay off the uncle's gambling debts!"
Someone laughed and scolded: "You bastard! You are an errand minion, what good news can there be? Could it be that your housewife has seen stealing men?"
The man begged: "Uncle said that he laughed, who would want such news! But there is really a little lady here, the little one has a spare house in Luoyang, a few days ago a young man brought a little lady to rent a house, the little lady looks like a flower and the moon, if the uncle gets it out and sells it into the kiln, how can you get a hundred and eighty taels of silver." ”
The previous man laughed and said: "Okay, you big leper, as soon as you enter the house, your lord is unlucky, he stole your lord's knife last year, and now he is going to sell your tenant's little girl, hahaha." ”
The big leper said bitterly: "This little girl is just that, but the young man is really suspicious, the little one wants to inquire if anyone knows that person, and after inquiring about the details, he will sell this information to someone who knows the goods." ”
Li Chongyuan had something in his heart, and the sentence "stole your master's knife" caused alarm, and he suddenly felt that eighty percent of the person who stole the knife was the person he was looking for.
Immediately took a look, turned around and walked into the alley. I saw three or four big men surrounding a thin man, who was wearing a brown satin robe, and from the hem of the robe peeked out of the cotton black trousers.
Usually the servants who run errands in the merchants' houses often dress up like this. Then he stepped forward and shouted: "Brothers, I will pay this brother's gambling debts for him, please don't embarrass him." The big men squinted their eyes and said, "How old are you? Want to repay the debt?" Okay, take out the silver!" (To be continued......)
