"Just give it to me."

After signing, the maid asked someone to carry the package back to the room, and the villa door was closed again.

Wu Xijin returned to his stone bench with a little disappointment, but he only knew Mrs. Ye’s possible name and did not make any substantial progress.

About an hour passed.

It was almost 4:30, and just as Wu Xijin was thinking that there might be no clues here today, and whether to go back to the Land Planning Bureau to take a look, a private carriage slowly drove out of the other courtyard.

The car did not pull the curtains. Through the window, Wu Xijin saw a man in his early forties with a fat Mediterranean body.

The moment he saw the man, Wu Xijin couldn't help but exclaimed "Fuck" in awe.

This man is nothing else, he is Director Cao Yuan and Director Cao!

Wu Xijin quickly followed and restored a series of plots:

Yema went to the office to find Cao Yuan. Yema waited in the Wangqi office for 15 minutes and Cao Yuan did not come. Yema went home in high spirits... Then Cao Yuan was at home.

Really, I'm slandering my own private child.

In this case, Wang Qi was obviously not the only breakthrough. Wu Xijin took a carriage and followed Cao Yuan. He thought Cao Yuan might go to the unit to check it out, but Cao Yuan turned a corner before he arrived at the Land Planning Bureau and stopped in front of a shop 10 minutes later.

This is a shop selling rice. The rice price today is 20 copper yuan per kilogram.

Very expensive!

Wu Xijin remembers that when he was in Shiban Town, the price of rice was 1.5-2 copper yuan per kilogram, which was 10 times higher?

Price spread in big cities?

Or something else?

Cao Yuan did not stay in the shop for too long. He asked about some things, which may be related to the amount of sales.

The clerk shook his head after Cao Yuan's inquiry. After Cao Yuan scolded him, the clerk used the eraser and chalk to change the price of rice today to 18 copper yuan per kilogram.

Is this not sold?

Some of the previous conversations involuntarily appeared in Wu Xijin's mind:

"I can imagine that the guild merchants will have a very exciting expression after hearing this news."

"Don't just eat rice at my house just by adding it to your heart's content. Tell you that the price of grain will not be high for a few days. Don't get sick just because you eat a few more bites of rice. It's not worth the money."

...

Leaving from the shop, the carriage turned around and stopped at the door of a small villa.

This time I can't see the content.

Wu Xijin and others were counting at the door. After 70 minutes, Cao Yuan's carriage had already driven out of the villa.

It's so long?

It seems to be a serious matter.

It was already 6 o'clock at this time, and Wu Xijin continued to follow Cao Yuan and found that Cao Yuan did not continue to walk, but went home directly. Now Wu Xijin felt that there was nothing to follow, so he decided to focus on the owner of the villa just now.

Wu Xijin wants to clarify the complex relationships of this series of characters and find a new breakthrough.

This time it takes less than 20 minutes.

Wu Xijin paid the cart and asked the cart to leave, and walked around the villa a few times alone.

After a while, Wu Xijin stood in front of the tap water valve in the villa, showing a thoughtful expression.

...

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Wu Xijin went out to purchase and reappeared at the door of the villa.

Dangdangdang.

Wu Xijin knocked on the villa gate.

He did not get a response directly, and knocked two or three times. A soft sound came from the villa, and the sound of slippers treading the ground from far to near. Then, the door was opened, and a sleepy lady in a gauze nightgown appeared in front of Wu Xijin.

She looks in her early 20s, has a good appearance, a delicate figure, and her long hair is slightly messy, as if she is sleeping.

"Who are you?"

The woman was obviously stunned when she saw Wu Xijin.

There was almost no one here except Cao Yuan. The woman's first reaction was that Cao Yuan was leaving and returning.

"Hello, ma'am, our company is rectifying the nearby tap water pipes. I would like to ask, is there any water in your room?" Wu Xijin had already changed into a work outfit, holding a small frame in his hand, containing boards, pliers, clips, ropes, tape and other tools for crime.

"Soil water?"

The woman was stunned for a moment and said, "You wait a moment, I'll go and have a look."

After the woman finished speaking, she trotted into the bathroom in slippers, and in a few seconds, she trotted out of the bathroom.

When I came back, my slippers still stepped on the watermark along the way.

"Sorry, my house has indeed been cut off from water. When can I resume water use?" the lady asked.

"Don't worry, I'm here to help you solve the problem. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Wu, Wulaoban, Wushuoban, Wushuoban, a martial arts martial arts, a solid stern, and a bench. What's the name?" Wu Xijin took off his hat and said.

"Hello, my surname is Dong, Dong Wanwan. In winter, I smiled at Wan."

Dong Wanwan unknowingly answered with the same sentence structure as Wu Xijin, although she didn't seem to need to introduce it in such detail.

"What a good name, it matches your temperament." Wu Xijin praised casually, and then said, "Madam, is it convenient for me to go in and take a look now?"

"Of course, Mr. Wu is welcome to come in." Dong Wanwan gave up a way to Wu Xijin.

"You can call my name directly." Wu Xijin bowed slightly.

"Okay, Wu Xian..., well, Wu Laoban, you don't need to change your shoes, the living room is a bit messy." Dong Wanwan said embarrassedly.

It’s really not that Dong Wanwan is modest. It seems that he didn’t have time to organize it. The living room is really messy.

The first thing that comes into view after entering the door is the floor-to-ceiling windows half-covered with curtains. There is a set of luxurious-looking genuine leather sofas in front of the window.

The chaos started with this set of sofas. The cushion that was supposed to be placed on the sofa was kicked to the ground, and there was a lace-edged apron and a broken stocking on the sofa.

Transfer of sight.

On the long table 3 meters away from the sofa set, teacups and teapots that should be placed in accordance with certain aesthetics were stacked randomly on a corner of the table. In most of the space empty on the long table, there were some milk and food residues similar to tomato sauce, making the no longer beautiful decorations look messy.

Follow Dong Wanwan and into the bathroom.

Half of the water in the bathtub is cooler and petals are floating on it.

The bathroom floor was wet with overflowing water and did not dry. The water brought out from Dong Wanguan’s slippers just now was obviously from here. Moreover, the ground was not pure water, and it seemed to be mixed with some substances similar to soap, which made the tiles particularly slippery. Wu Xijin had to be careful when stepping on it.

"Sorry, Wu Laoban, the family is too messy."

Dong Wanguan was surprised to find that after calling Wu Laoban twice, he unexpectedly said something?

"It's okay, it's okay."

Wu Xijin felt that the two of them had to work hard for 70 minutes, which was probably the Dong Wanguan who was busy, so Cao Yuan was tired after leaving, so he slept for a while and didn't clean up. It was completely understandable.

I just came to see the crime scene, and there was no need to urge others to do housework.

After turning on the faucet, Wu Xijin symbolically twisted the board around a few times, but no water came in if nothing unexpected happened.

But there is no doubt that the acting skills provided by ‘performance’ are not seen as a plumbing worker.

After going around and around, the water valve was finally opened. After a few minutes, the tap water supply returned to normal again.

“Fixed.”

Wu Xijin was quite satisfied with his easy solution to the problem of restoring water supply. At this time, the purpose had been achieved and he was about to leave.

"I'm really bothering you, Wu Laoban." Dong Wanguan bowed slightly and politely thanked Wu Xijin.

"We are causing you trouble." Wu Xijin said.

"Go slowly."

Dong Wanguan bowed slightly again.

I didn't say that I welcome you next time, so I'll be the first to comment... Wu Xijin waved his hand with a smile, closed the door of the villa, and turned around and left.
