After Li Xiaolin left, Qin Shaobai began to prepare to collect palm prints.
Although Qin Shaobai wanted to collect all the palm prints, he thought that if these 50,000 palm prints were piled together, they would soon be weathered, even if they were placed on a wooden table or an iron box.
It's not very convenient, not to mention, there aren't that many places for him to put it.
He then thought of doing the next best thing and collecting the palm prints of adult men in the county, because adult men were more likely to commit crimes.
"Master Qin, don't you need to discuss it with Master Song?"
Zhou Qu asked Qin Shaobai tentatively. He knew that the adults in his family did strange things, but he was not so imaginative as to do such unbelievable things.
In this big Nanyang County, the only person who can persuade his masters is probably Mr. Song.
"Well, this matter can't be done in a day or two." Qin Shaobai said, already standing up, "Is there a dyeing shop in this county?"
"Yes, there is one in the east of the city." Zhou Qu answered, hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "Sir, do you want to dye your clothes?"
"No, I just want to find the owner of the dyeing shop to study what kind of dye can be used to prevent the printed palm prints from fading. I want one that is economical and affordable."
Zhou Qu shouted for help in his heart. Didn't he agree to wait until Mr. Song comes back to discuss it? Why are he looking for some dye again, and something economical?
What is economical?
Qin Shaobai couldn't help but feel funny when he saw Zhou Qu's head drooped, looking miserable.
Didn’t these ancient people have any sense of innovation in their minds? They were so afraid to come into contact with new things.
"Master Qin." It was Wang Cheng who rushed in.
"Wang Cheng, it just so happens that you are more familiar with the east part of the city. You can take Mr. Qin to the dyeing shop in the east part of the city."
"Zhou Qu, are you possessed by a spirit? How did you know something happened to the dye shop?"
"What happened to the dye shop?" Qin Shaobai and Zhou Qu asked in unison.
"Yes, the owner of the dye shop just came to report that his ten-year-old son is missing."
"Okay, everyone, please go to your places and bring the boss Qian here. I want to inquire about this missing case carefully."
Seeing that Qin Shaobai was in high spirits, Zhou Qu felt calm in his heart: as long as there was a case to be investigated, their family would not want to do anything like collecting palm prints.
Boss Qian was brought up.
Boss Qian is worthy of being Boss Qian. He is dressed in high-quality silk, showing his aura of wealth and nobility.
As soon as he saw Qin Shaobai, Boss Qian burst into tears.
After Wang Cheng persuaded him a lot, Boss Qian told the story in tears.
Boss Qian's son Qian Jincai is only ten years old. Today he went to the temple fair with his servant at home. On the way back, the servant said he was going to buy vegetables and wanted Xiao Jincai to go with him, but Xiao Jincai didn't.
He stared at someone else's candied haws stall and refused to leave.
The servant saw that the vegetable stall he wanted to buy was not very far away from the candied haws fruit stall, so he told Xiao Jincai to wait here, and promised to buy him candied hawsed apples if he had any leftover coins after buying the vegetables.
Of course Xiao Jincai was happy, so the servant ran to buy vegetables.
He was haggling with the vendors when he heard a commotion behind him. It turned out that someone was riding a horse and galloping towards him.
Seeing that the horse was about to rush towards Xiao Jincai, the servant screamed in fright, but the man on the horse stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Jincai onto the horse.
When the servant saw that his little master had been rescued, he just felt relieved and wanted to run to pick up his little master.
Who knew that the man on the horse had no intention of stopping and returning Xiao Jincai to him, but instead clamped the horse's belly with both feet, waved the long whip in his hand, and with a sound of driving, Xiao Jincai and the horse, and
The strong man on the horse disappeared.
"Master Qin, I know that Nanyang County is not peaceful recently. The villagers say that someone is kidnapping children. I have already prepared to send the money to the countryside. Who knew that strong man could actually do it on the street and in front of everyone's eyes?"
They took my baby away down there."
Looking at Boss Qian who was beating his chest and feeling full of regret, Qin Shaobai felt that the fire in his forehead was coming out one after another. He wanted to run down immediately, took Boss Qian with him and went to the crime scene to investigate carefully and found clues.
, he immediately closed the net and captured the audacious robber.
However, when he changed his posture and sat on the chair again, his strings of fire slowly extinguished.
"Wang Cheng, go and bring Boss Qian's servant here now, question him carefully, make notes, and record the situation at that time."
"Xiao Qu, go find a painter and ask the servant to try to recall what that person looks like right now."
"Li Xian, go to that street and ask around to see if anyone witnessed the whole thing happening, and if anyone also saw the robber on the horse."
After controlling the three of them, Qin Shaobai walked down and pulled up Boss Qian, who was still kneeling on the ground: "Boss Qian, I still have some questions to ask you. I hope you can answer them truthfully."
"Mr. Qin, making money is my lifeblood. Our Qian family is a single descendant of three generations. There is only such a treasure, and making money is really good for me. Since he was born, I have been having good luck. I can't live without making money."
Money."
Qin Shaobai patted Boss Qian who was so excited that he coughed: "Boss Qian, don't worry, we will definitely find clues to get Xiao Jincai back."
When Boss Qian heard this, he immediately pulled Qin Shaobai tightly like a drowning man who saw a life-saving straw: "Master Qin, as long as you rescue Jin Cai, what are your county government's requirements?
, I will try my best to satisfy you.”
Qin Shaobai twitched the muscles on his face. After thinking about it, he still didn't tell him about the dye. He just patted Boss Qian's hand again: "Boss Qian, I want to ask you, what are you doing in business?"
You didn’t have any quarrel with anyone?”
"Well, of course not. We have been dyeing clothes for three generations, and the fabrics we made have been sent to the court several times to make clothes for the emperor's ladies. I have always known the principle that harmony makes money, so I
Treat everyone with courtesy, and never care whether the person is poor or rich, or whether he buys fine cloth or coarse cloth."
Afraid that Qin Shaobai wouldn't believe it, Boss Qian added: "All the folks on the street know this."
Qin Shaobai saw that Boss Qian said these words very naturally, with pride in his words, so he ruled out the possibility that the small fortune was robbed by the enemy.
"Boss Qian, do you inadvertently reveal your family's wealth to others?" Qin Shaobai pointed at the expensive-looking clothes on Boss Qian's body.
"Ah, Mr. Qin, you have misunderstood. I don't dress like this on weekdays. Today I have to meet a big client, so I dress up so grandly. Qian remembers the teachings of his ancestors and keeps a low profile.
I do things in a high-profile manner, so I have never dared to live a luxurious life."
It is unlikely that Qian will be kidnapped because he wants to demand money, and Boss Qian has not received any blackmail letters so far.
If it's not out of hatred or seeking wealth, then what's the purpose of plundering a small amount of money?
While Qin Shaobai was frowning and thinking deeply, he heard someone beating drums outside the door and shouting for injustice.
