Tang Wan'er complained in her heart, can this guy make no mistakes in every case? Or does this guy think he is Detective Dee who judges cases like a god?
"Ms. Tang, Mr. Cai sees that you have a piece of beautiful jade. Can you help Mr. Cai see what the quality of the jade I have is like and where it came from?"
Cai He took out a piece of jade and showed it to Tang Wan'er.
That is indeed a good piece of jade. Compared with the mutton-fat white jade on Tang Wan'er's body, it is of course much inferior. But for ordinary people to collect and use it, it does not lose its quality.
However, even if she understood, Tang Wan'er didn't intend to tell Cai He.
"Wan'er doesn't know how to jade, which makes Master Cai disappointed. By the way, where did you get this jade?"
"It's in Chen Xu's hands." Cai He smiled mysteriously, which made Tang Wan'er's heart tremble. She hated this kind of person the most.
Tang Wan'er was very unhappy when she saw Cai He's hateful face! At this time, she was ravaging the flowers and plants in the yard. Today's harvest was not very big, and she was a little irritable.
Just underestimate one petal after another, "hate", "hate", "hate", so even if the petal is pulled to the last petal, Comrade Cai He is still hated! Hahaha!
The next day, General Chen He found clues.
***
"This is the old farmer who picked up the dagger."
In a small village not far from the county seat of Lu County, General Chen He found the old farmer who had picked up the bloody dagger a month ago.
Cai He checked the nearby terrain and found that there was indeed a river connected to the county seat. So, it can be concluded that the murderer discarded the murder weapon at will, and then the murder weapon flowed to the village along the water and was picked up by an old farmer.
The old farmer pawned the dagger in exchange for some money, and his life was a little easier. When General Chen He first came to the door, the old farmer was very scared, thinking that if he picked up the dagger and pawned it, he would be arrested and sent to the Yamen. Fortunately, the clarification would not be against him.
How can he feel at ease?
Xingye Pawnshop.
"Do you want to pawn some of the guests, or look at some new goods?"
Cai He ignored the pawn shop owner, and General Chen He presented the official seal of the patrol envoy at his signal.
"The Emperor of the Qing Kingdom has personally appointed the patrol envoy to patrol the sky on behalf of the heavens. When he saw the patrol envoy here, he quickly knelt down!"
"Little... little people are ignorant of Mount Tai, but... I hope you will forgive me!"
As he said that, the boss knelt down to General Chen He. Chen He had no choice but to point and said, "That's our patrol envoy."
The boss who made a fool of himself bowed to Cai He again, but Cai He did not accept this trick.
"Do you remember that about a month ago, someone from Hejia Village, the village closest to the county seat, came here to pawn something?"
The boss thought about it carefully and realized that this was really the case.
"Sir, it's a coincidence that you came here. A guest officer just placed an order this morning, but something urgent seems to have delayed it, so this thing is still here. Do you think it is this?"
The boss personally presented the exquisite box containing the goods. Cai He opened it and asked the old farmer accompanying him to take a look to confirm that it was the one he had pawned.
Tang Wan'er saw a line of small words on the dagger: Jin Shui Pavilion, and the date.
Is it related to a certain place?
Of course, Cai He also thought about this problem and sent someone to check whether there was a place called "Jinshui Pavilion" or whether there was a shop called "Jinshui Pavilion".
After Tang Wan'er, Cai He and others waited for nearly an hour, the person who placed the order finally appeared. He was the housekeeper of the Jin family, a high-ranking official in Lu County, and it was also the Jin family that Chen Shun worked for.
