"Botou Zhu, something bad has happened. The manager of the Financial Office was stabbed and his head was cut off. Even the murderer's hair was not seen. Many people said that the ghost of He Laosi came back to claim his life.
"
Xiao Jinli ran to the compound early in the morning and reported to Zhu Chuanwenhui in a panic.
After the two parties decided to cooperate to deal with Kuai Ma Liu, Xiao Jinli and Da Hei girl naturally became the intelligence agents of the Zhu family.
"The officers and soldiers are digging three feet into Laojingou to find the murderer. Even before breakfast, the taverns, casinos and casinos have been searched twice. It's time to come over and search us gold lovers soon. It seems that they won't search.
We won’t stop until the murderer is found.”
The Zhu family father and son were exposed a lot, and it was not difficult for Xiao Jinli to guess that this might be the revenge of Zhu Kaishan and his son, and he was worried that they would be traced by the officers and soldiers.
"Let the officers and soldiers investigate. I would say they should have done a thorough investigation a long time ago. How can Lao Jingou be able to dig for gold with peace of mind when the people of Lao Jingou have been in panic for such a long time."
Zhu Chuanwen's stated attitude was that he was not afraid of investigation and made Xiao Jinli feel at ease.
When Xiao Jinli was serving the bandits, Zhu Chuanwen felt that Xiao Jinli was a good intelligence officer.
But after serving him, Zhu Chuanwen felt that the child was a bit too young and he was not so reassured.
"I heard that the murderer not only took away Manager Jin's head, but also ransacked all of Manager Jin's belongings. You said they took away Manager Jin's head, but they also took away so much property, the Qing soldiers can't trace it
Don’t you care?”
Xiao Jinli continued to test and remind Zhu Chuanwen.
Yesterday, Zhu Kaishan sneaked into Manager Jin's compound, killed Manager Jin, and took off his head to make a sacrifice for He Laosi. He originally wanted to leave.
It was Zhu Chuanwen who followed in and plundered the property.
These small officials in charge of the gold mines are richer than ordinary county magistrates. They can be exchanged for copper coins, which is at least one million, and they must not be missed.
Others couldn't bring their belongings from Laojingou, which was not a problem for Zhu Chuanwen.
"This has nothing to do with us. We just need to dig for our gold. No matter how much property the murderer takes away, he will definitely be able to take it away. It cannot be something we can miss."
After Zhu Chuanwen reassured Xiao Jinli, he sent the people away.
Not long after Xiao Jinli left, the Qing soldiers found Jin Dana's compound.
The Qing soldiers naturally didn't have much respect for the foreman, so they just barged in and started rummaging through the boxes.
This woke up Jinda, who had trouble sleeping at night and needed to catch up on sleep during the day. He walked out with his shoes on and asked:
"Botou Zhu, what's the noise outside?"
"Daqi, the financial manager of the financial office is gone. The Qing soldiers want to track down the murderer, and they found him in our yard."
"Who do you think is missing?" Jin Dana had a quick wit, and his sleepy eyes suddenly became much more awake.
"It's Manager Jin who I went to deliver a letter two days ago."
Zhu Chuanwen replied carefully and firmly.
"What's going on? Why is there no one?" Dana Jin asked in shock and anger.
"Daqi, we still have to deal with the Qing soldiers now, they are about to come in."
Zhu Chuanwen reminded Dana Jin that being searched by Qing soldiers was no different from having your home ransacked.
Just because other people don't have anything valuable doesn't mean Dana doesn't have anything of value.
To prevent this from happening, of course, Dana needs to consciously shed some blood.
Otherwise, those who rummage through boxes and plunder the property will suffer less losses than paying money directly.
"Wait while I go get the money bag."
Jinda went to the room and got the money bag.
After giving money for tea to the Qing soldiers, they were sent away.
This time the Qing troops searched more seriously. Even though they spent money and turned the compound upside down, they were a little more restrained in their actions.
No big losses were caused, and Dana was not stupid. The hidden gold would not have been discovered so easily.
Otherwise Zhu Chuanwen will suffer a wave of heavy losses.
Jinda's gold was only temporarily deposited by Zhu Chuanwen with Jinda. Sooner or later, the gold would belong to Lao Zhu's family.
"Why is Manager Jin missing? Can you tell me in detail?"
After waiting for the Qing soldiers to leave, Dana Jin continued to ask.
"I've only heard a little bit about it, but I don't know much about it in detail."
Zhu Chuanwen replied as if he didn't understand anything.
"I know the big cabinet. Manager Jin's head was taken off by the murderer. I just found out in front of He Laosi's grave that all the family's belongings are gone. If He Laosi is cheated, he will lose his wealth and his life. He will die.
That’s so miserable…”
The waiter next to him felt very smart and took the opportunity to show off, but did not notice that Dana Jin's face was getting darker and darker.
"Okay, stop talking." Dana waved his hand and said, "Do you know who the murderer is?"
"The Qing soldiers don't know, and we don't even know. Zuo is just He Laosi's brother who came back to take revenge, or those who are greedy for the gold vein map."
Zhu Chuanwen said in a relaxed tone.
This is also the consensus of everyone in Lao Jingou. Because of the popularity of the Golden Vein Diagram, people will consciously think of it here.
There are only a few clues in total.
Not only all the gold lovers in Lao Jingou are suspected.
The result of having too many interests is that everyone in Laojingou is worthy of suspicion.
"What a shame, isn't it just that He Laosi died? This is to make everyone in Lao Jingou suffer." Dana Jin slapped the leg of the chair angrily:
"Jin Boss, you don't need to be in the compound today. The gold husbands haven't taken care of them for a few days. You go and collect the gold sand from the gold husbands' hands. Increase their wages and take back all the gold sand that can be recovered.
, no matter what, we must not delay the gold mining progress."
"Dad, Dana Jin is already weak. I feel like this old boy is going to run away."
After helping Jin Dana search for another wave of gold men, Zhu Chuanwen and Zhu Kaishan met.
When Dana raised her wages to collect the gold dust from her husband, it was obviously a last wave of madness.
"Then keep an eye on him."
There were many people who killed He Laosi, but the one Zhu Kaishan hated the most was Dana Jin.
"It's not a big problem to keep an eye on him. It's just that without Dana, it won't be that easy for us to catch One-Eyed Biao."
Now only Duanyanbiao and his gang of bandits are left, and Mr. Zhu Chuanwen and his wife don't have a good plan yet.
For Zhu Kaishan and Zhu Chuanwen, everyone else is ready to be harvested at any time.
"I can't take care of it anymore. Dana Kim can't leave no matter what."
"I understand. It's fine if he stays in Lao Jingou. If he wants to run away, let him reunite with Boss Jin as soon as possible."
Zhu Chuanwen actually didn't want to waste time. If he could do it faster, he could still go home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Dad, Dana Jinda just led the horse out alone."
Dana Jinda may have been mentally tortured too much in recent times. The death of Manager Jin was the last straw that broke her heart. She ran away the next day without waiting for any results.
"Let's follow."
Zhu Kaishan replied without hesitation.
The father and son stared at Jinda all day long, making sure that Jinda was not a bait to lure the snake out of its hole.
There was no calculation, it was just Dana Jin who wanted to run away.
The two of them followed Dana Jinda and chased them for several miles:
"Dad, it's almost time. We're going to Caodianzi soon."
"There are no soldiers or bandits around here. It's a good place to start. Stop him."
Zhu Kaishan responded, flicked his wrist, and a flying knife flew out.
Twenty steps away, it pierced Dana's waist. After a muffled groan, Dana fell off the horse.
That is to say, Dana Jinda was looking for a trail and her riding speed could not be too fast. Otherwise, if she fell off the horse, she might lose the chance to speak.
"Dad, you are good at this skill. When will you teach me how to do it? You still have a skill hidden from your own son."
Zhu Chuanwen cheered, although it is already an era when guns are king.
However, boxing, kicking, and various cold weapons are not without their use.
Concealed weapons are very useful when it is difficult to shoot and when there is a big noise.
The key is that this hidden weapon looks really cool.
Whether you are strong or not is a temporary matter. Zhu Chuanwen has many conveniences to make up for his strength. Being handsome is a lifelong matter.
"You haven't learned how to walk yet, so you want to run away. When I left home, your martial arts training was very poor. What did you ask me to teach you?" Zhu Kaishan replied to Zhu Chuanwen while walking in the direction of Jinda.
: "If you want to learn how to throw a knife, let's talk about it after we get home."
The two men caught up with Jinda, and Zhu Kaishan caught Jinda, who had a strong desire to survive and crawled slowly on the ground, trying hard to run away.
Zhu Chuanwen caught Jin Dana's bay-red horse.
Of course, these horses cannot be released into the wild if they have stepped on several kilograms of gold.
These several kilograms of gold are the result of two years of accumulation when Dana occupied He Laosi's gold pit last year and dug Zhu Chuanwen's gold pit this year.
"Daqi, Lao Jingou is not peaceful right now. You didn't notify anyone. Where are you going in secret?"
"Boss Zhu, Zhu Xiaowen, what are you going to do? Do you still care about my big cabinet?"
After seeing the two people clearly, Jinda suddenly had some hope of survival.
"Big cabinet, what time has it been? You are still dreaming about your big cabinet. It's time to wake up. Where are you going? Are you feeling guilty and trying to escape?"
Zhu Chuanwen kicked Jinda on the other side of the waist and said.
"Why am I running? Aren't I just going out to ask for some manpower to come back for our golden pit?"
Looking at Zhu Chuanwen, Dana Jin quibbled.
"What nonsense, we are both here to arrest you, don't say you don't know our identities?"
Zhu Chuanwen gave Jin Dana a lot of care in this period, and now of course he has to pay it back and kick him a few more times.
"Boss Zhu, you are He Laosi's brother. You have brought your son back to avenge He Laosi. You guys have hidden it so well."
Dana Jinda said bitterly.
"Jin Dana, who else killed Mr. He last year with you? If you tell the truth, I can give you a piece of cake. If you don't cooperate, don't blame me for being unkind."
Zhu Kaishan took out a dagger, put it on Jin Dana's neck and asked.
Although it is 98% certain that the person who killed He Laosi was a few people connected by Jinda as a link.
But if possible, Zhu Kaishan still wants a clear answer.
"Don't kill me. I have gold. I can buy my life. I can give you all the gold."
After the knife was placed on his neck, Dana was in a panic and just begged for mercy.
"You don't have your little gold here anymore. Why do we need you to give it to us?" Zhu Chuanwen pointed to the horse's hoof: "Besides, we all have the gold vein map. What makes you think that we will care about your little gold."
"
He Laoshi was tricked by people like Dana Jin, and he felt a little aggrieved.
It can be said that strong winds and waves came over and fell on the little ghost.
"Since we are all dead, why should I tell you the truth?"
With no hope of survival in sight, the cruelty in Dana's bones was revealed.
There are not many cowards who come to Laojingou to prospect for gold.
If it weren't for his own life that was at stake, Dana would also be a cold-blooded, ruthless person who is indifferent to life.
"You don't have to say it. If you don't say it, then you will take the blame for others. You are the only one who will bear the consequences. You will be cut into pieces by us, while others will live happily with the gold you made together and eat meat from a big bowl.
, drink from a big bowl and play with women."
Compared to Zhu Kaishan's direct questioning, Zhu Chuanwen still preferred to defeat Jin Dana's inner defense first.
"Pass the message, there are only two groups of bandits left, let's go out. I heard He Laosi said that there are some secret passages, and there is a chance to get out from Laojingou."
The father and son worked together, using both hard and soft tactics, and it was not difficult to get the answer they wanted.
Jin Biao's head was also chopped off and sent to He Laosi's grave to pay homage.
"Dad, there's no need to go to such trouble, we can just go out openly." Zhu Chuanwen rejected Zhu Kaishan: "Now that all our big cabinets are gone, we can't keep the gold pit. The gold miners don't have a foreman, and there's no gold pit to dig for.
Of course we have to go home."
The secret passage that He Laosi gave to Zhu Kaishan was certainly not safe.
Either there is a risk of being discovered by Qing soldiers and bandits, or the road itself is dangerous, and it would be even more helpless for Caodianzi to fall into it.
"Dad, let me perform one for you."
Zhu Chuanwen took out a gold plate that was melted into the shape of a horseshoe and said.
"Can it be a little formal? When will you perform another one with dad?"
Zhu Kaishan looked up at Zhu Chuanwen and replied.
"Dad, have you seen the gold in my hand...The next step is to witness the miracle...the gold is gone!"
Zhu Chuanwen asked Zhu to open the mountain of gold, and then he turned his hands and received the gold into the "small world".
In this era when people are relatively ignorant, there is still a market for the things that gods and gods talk about, and they can easily fool people.
Because modern science had little development in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there were few people talking about scientific and unscientific things.
All things that are difficult to explain can be summed up in metaphysics.
"What are you doing, a trick?" Zhu Kaishan finally looked a little surprised in his eyes.
"Yes, this is the years when you were away from home. There were jugglers who came to our town. I learned it from an old master. If I hadn't known that you didn't like these things, I would have gone into the world with the old master."
In this era, sleight of hand still belongs to the "various" category. It is not a serious path, and it even has less status than farmers.
"It's a small skill that won't make it to the stage."
"Dad, I have obtained the true Caimen method. If you can find gold in me, then I lose, and you can belittle me." Zhu Chuanwen replied with an unhappy look on his face.
