Chapter 14: Jin Wuzuchi, the family has a virtuous wife

Time was tight and there was no time to take a closer look, Shen Mo put the package into his arms and then quickly walked out of the yard.

After passing through the uninhabited hall, at the front gate, the constable in the yamen was chaoticly loading four bodies onto the cart. The surroundings and idle people watching the fun were surrounded.

Shen Mo took advantage of the hustle and no one noticed, quietly got into the crowd and slowly followed everyone out.

After finally returning to Qiantang County Government, it was already half a day. Today's business has been roughly completed.

The captain Xu Wang was called into the second hall by the county magistrate. After he came out, his face showed a gloomy appearance.

"Sir," Xu Wang gathered more than 30 constables in the room together, and then said seriously:

"Today's case is related to Hu Shang, and it is the face of my great country in the Celestial Empire. In this case, there are both wealth and treasures and corpses of fairies, and everything is sensational."

"It probably takes less than half a day to spread this strange case throughout the capital. If the case cannot be solved, we must be in a bad way."

"In the past few days, everyone has taken care of me! You have spread their own quick hands and checked in gambling shops, tiles, trays, pawn shops, etc. to see if anyone takes Hu Shang's treasures to take action."

"I will put my words here first. Whoever can find clues will be rewarded. If anyone is perfunctory, he will definitely punish him severely!" When Xu Wang said this, his eyes glanced in Shen Mo intentionally or unintentionally.

Although it was a short glance, the resentment in his eyes could not be concealed no matter what.

"This is what you said!" Shen Mo thought to himself.

The case in front of me is Xu Wang's best excuse. This is the best reason to remove Shen Mo from the list.

These constables have their own Kuaishou, and each Kuaishou has mastered countless idle people like idle players on the street and helping people.

After a few days, even if the clues are not found, the detectives will be unprofitable and hard work when they tell the scope of their respective investigations.

Only Shen Mo has no one to use it in his hand.

When he came to report his work, if Shen Mo didn't know anything about it, he would just give Xu Wang a reason to fire him!

"As the saying goes: Cutting off a person's wealth is like killing his parents. This sentence is really good!" Shen Mo thought with a wry smile in his heart: "It seems that if you want to keep this job in the Southern Song Dynasty, you won't be able to do it if you don't want some solutions!"

When everyone understood the task, they naturally went to find their own relationships and informants.

When Lu Qiang came out, he searched for Shen Mo's figure at the yamen gate. After searching for him for a long time, he couldn't see him. Lu Qiang couldn't help but grit his teeth and stomped his feet secretly.

"This Shen Dalang, I'm afraid he can't escape this time! I don't know where he went to find clues like a headless fly! Alas!" Lu Qiang thought worriedly.

Facts proved that Lu Qiang guessed that it was unreliable. Shen Mo came out of the yamen and went home directly.

Halfway through the way, he walked to a sparsely-traveled alley. Shen Mo took out the small package inside his arms and then opened the sweat towel wrapped outside.

The heavy feeling brought to him was indeed correct. Shen Mo looked at the things in his hand and couldn't help but whistle.

In the dirty and worn linen sweat towel, there was a ingot of gold!

This ingot is about a twelve taels of gold. The so-called "seven green, eight yellow, nine, five red", the color on this ingot is red, and you can tell at a glance that it is tens of red gold.

One pound in the Song Dynasty was sixteen taels. According to the exchange price of gold and silver, the twelve taels of gold into silver is more than one hundred and thirty taels of silver.

In the Song Dynasty, what can one tael of silver do?

A eleven or 2-year-old maid, who was cleaned with her teeth and poked her in front of you, only two taels of silver.

A big girl who can serve people at the age of fourteen or five is ugly and handsome, and the price ranges from four to six liang to six liang. No matter what you want to do, you can do whatever you want.

By the way, the official quote at this time was that one tael of silver was equal to one tael of money, that is, one thousand coins of copper. But in fact, the people mainly use copper coins as currency. If one tael of silver is exchanged for copper coins, it is about one tael of silver to exchange for 700 to 900 coins.

So in this era when big pancakes are only sold for a penny, this more than 100 taels of silver is really a huge sum of money!

Looking at the ingot of gold, Shen Mo suddenly thought of something.

The treasures brought by Hu merchants are worth a huge amount of millions. If Zhang Niuer is the accomplice of this case, then the amount of money he has allocated is too little, right?

"Don't care!" Shen Mo said in his heart: "Don't care whether he is a stolen property or not, Zhang Niu'er will never make so much money in his life. He must not have obtained this ingot of gold seriously."

"This kid hides it in the hole in the wall, and it seems that he has become a heart-wrenching illness. He can't help but look at the hole in the wall as he passes by. But he unexpectedly happens to meet me!"

Shen Mo shook his head and stuffed the gold into his arms. In an instant, he threw Zhang Niu'er's affairs behind him.

When I got home all the way, the sun was already west. It was just around the corner of the sun, which was about three or four o'clock in the modern world.

As soon as Shen Mo entered the house, Lu Yunbai and Xiaofu came over to clean up the dust for him and change his public uniform.

After yesterday's incident of beating Meng San'er, although the master and servant were still somewhat alienated from Shen Mo. However, after all, they have regarded him as the head of the family and their lifelong support, so these actions are much more natural.

"My husband should be hungry, right?" Yunbai put down the scarf in his hand and said to Xiaofu: "Take out the food quickly."

Shen Mo changed into homely clothes. After he sat down at the table, Xiao Fu quickly brought out some food.

When I saw these things, I felt a bitter smile in my heart.

The two of them didn’t want to finish the treasure cake in the morning, but left him three pieces - the ones together were added to only six pieces!

Then, next to the hibiscus cake, there is a bowl of porridge.

He knew the best that there was no rice or noodles in Shen Mo's house. He didn't know how Yun Pai and the other two cleaned the rice jar, so he swept out thirty or fifty grains of broken rice to make a bowl of porridge for him.

It is said that if this porridge is too thin, it can be seen. And the bowl in front of Shen Mo... is so clear that it can raise fish!

Even so, Yunpai still put the only food in front of him and prepared to let him, the head of the family, fill his stomach.

Next to him, Yunmai looked at Shen Mo with a slightly awkward smile on her face. It seemed that as long as his husband ate this simple supper, she would be satisfied.

The same is true for Xiao Fu, standing there with a pretty smile.

Shen Mo's face was still as calm as water, and it looked like there was no turbulence. When he picked up the bowl of porridge, he felt a warm feeling on his hands.

The temperature is right.

Although the bowl of porridge in his hand was extremely thin, Shen Mo felt that it was more than a thousand pounds in his hand.

At this moment, Shen Mo felt that this bowl of porridge was better than all the delicacies in this world.

Yunpai and Xiaofu gave him all the only things, but did not expect them to be themselves.

They made their family poor like this, but they didn't complain about him.

And now, they stood on both sides of themselves and watched him eat this meal. It seemed that as long as he was full, the most important thing in the world was.

This is...home!

This feeling of being cared for, thinking about and cared for by others... It's so fucking exciting! It's so satisfying! It's so cool!
