Chapter 370 The truth
Gao Wanchang said nothing, but Zuo Abao seemed to have seen it with his own eyes, saying that Deputy Zhang Si must be the one who killed Master Xu, and Gao Wanchang was just a small yamen runner. It was supposed to be the accomplice of Deputy Zhang Si. However, Deputy Zhang Si had long died, while Gao Wanchang was still alive. I think no one knew about him, so he saved his life. The first pot of gold that Gao Wanchang used to do business was obtained from Deputy Zhang Si.
Zuo Abao threatened Gao Wanchang. If he did not tell the truth about that year, he would tell the matter out, so that it would be heard by those who killed Deputy Zhang Si.
Gao Wanchang wanted to kill Zuo Abao and silence him, but he didn't dare.
He is in his thirties, and there are shops in the city, fertile land outside the city, a wife and a concubine, and a good son with a bright future.
He didn't want Niu Bao to help, Niu Bao was a big mouth and couldn't keep things in his heart.
After thinking about it, Gao Wanchang gave Zuo Abao twenty taels of silver. He asked him to think about it carefully. Anyway, his shop was here and he couldn't escape. Three days later, he asked Zuo Abao to come to him again.
Zuo Abao took the money and left, while Gao Wanchang went to Xishi Street. Xishi Street is similar to Tianqiao, which is the most chaotic place in the capital. The most common ones are for art, while Xishi Street is mixed with all kinds of people.
Wang Er's blind man's stall is on Xishi Street, and Gao Wanchang is looking for Wang Er's blind man.
When he was a yamen runner in his early years, Gao Wanchang knew what Wang Er blind man did.
On the surface, they are fortune-telling, but in fact they dare to sell everything, sell secret medicines, and sell maps. In addition, Wang Er blind man also pimps.
Gao Wanchang said, "You need to have two hands black."
Wang Er blind man rolled his eyes, and when he heard his eyes, he showed his dark eyes: "Those who have an official body do not meet, those who have no official body have three thousand taels of martial arts, those who have fame and fortune but no official body have two thousand taels of..."
Before Wang Erbian finished quoting the price, Gao Wanchang interrupted him and said, "It's just a refugee, very thin, sick, and has no martial arts skills."
Wang Er's blind man suddenly lost interest and turned back to the blind man again. He rolled his eyes and said, "Five hundred taels."
"It's three hundred taels, just a beggar-like person, not worth so much." Gao Wanchang said.
"Four hundred taels, if you think it's expensive, you'll find someone else." Wang Er's blind man snorted coldly. This is the capital, and this is the market price. Where did the local buns come from?
"Three hundred and five, I will pay immediately after you promise." As he said that, Gao Wanchang took out a silver note from his arms.
Wang Er, blind man, nodded and said, "Report that person's situation..."
Gao Wanchang left Xishi Street, but he was not in a relaxed mood. He was so old that he was still doing such a thing for the first time. He was very nervous.
"I don't know who the blind man Wang Er was looking for. This is also the rule of this industry. Little people like me always pay the money first. The money is paid to Wang Er. The other side has done the matter and then get money from Wang Er. At that time, the blind man Wang Er agreed for seven days, and at that time I asked Zuo Abao to come three days later. On the third day, Zuo Abao didn't come, so I thought Zuo Abao must have died. I regretted it again. I didn't expect that this would kill a life. I regretted it very much and secretly burned paper money for Zuo Abao. But on the seventh day, when I went to Xishi Street to find Wang Er, Wang Er blind man returned me three hundred taels. He said that he had found someone, but he didn't accept the order, so he stopped doing this business. As for the fifty taels deducted, it was the industry rule."
Gao Wanchang's face was ashamed, and he continued, "To be honest, I heard that no one took orders at that time. When the deal was not completed, I was happy. Zuo Abao was not dead and I didn't harm anyone. But Zuo Abao never came to me again. I thought of going to the private camp to inquire, but I was afraid that I would get into trouble again, so I pretended that this had never happened."
A few days later, the story of a beggar in Princess Zhaoyang's porridge shed spread throughout the capital. Gao Wanchang didn't care at first. Until one day, two students from the tribute school were buying things in the shop, chatting while buying. Gao Wanchang then realized that the dead beggar was not a real beggar, but a refugee from a private camp. Gao Wanchang immediately thought of Zuo Abao, and he mustered up the courage to go to the private camp. He soon learned that the person who died was Zuo Abao. The people from Shuntian Mansion had come to check and their identity had been confirmed.
Gao Wanchang did not expect that while he came to the private camp to inquire about the news, there were also people in the private camp, which was Yan Debao's subordinate. Since Yan Debao specialized in business and business, of course he also focused on this matter. Zuo Abao died in the porridge shed of Princess Zhaoyang. If it could be found that this person had a relationship with Princess Zhaoyang, the news could be sold for a good price. Gao Wanchang was sneaky and was targeted as soon as he came. Gao Wanchang didn't know that he was investigating Zuo Abao, and Yan Debao's people were also investigating him.
Two days later, a batch of goods caused some trouble and involved the nephew of a father-in-law in the palace. Someone asked him to find Yan Debao, who was the nephew of Mrs. Yan and was in the business of the wine and vinegar bureau, so he should be a middleman. This matter should be settled.
Gao Wanchang prepared a gift and asked someone to find Yan Debao. He specially set up a table in Jiangnanchun. Yan Debao tried this for him. Gao Wanchang invited Yan Debao to eat it alone. This time, Yan Debao asked him about the case five years ago.
Gao Wanchang knew that he was targeted, and he also secretly found out that Yan Debao had secretly bought news. He simply did not do anything and asked Yan Debao for 3,000 taels of silver.
Yan Debao really gave it, but Yan Debao was so angry that he scolded Gao Wanchang to Ade after he returned home.
Later, Yan Debao used the news that he bought it for 30,000 taels to pay a high price of 30,000 taels to the Longan Palace. He finally saved his life because of the 30,000 taels.
Gao Wanchang knew so much. After the interview, Hua Jingyao immediately asked Shi Jia to go to Xishi Street to bring Wang Er blind man back.
Hua Jingyao had heard of Wang Er blind man. When she first investigated Nie Zhengqi's case, when she found Mr. Wuyou, she knew that there were a few people selling secret medicines in the capital, and Wang Er blind man was one of them.
Wang Erbian was also a regular visitor to Shuntian Mansion. Not only was he not afraid, he immediately said: "Don't lock me in the innermost row this time, guarding the mouse cave there, fighting all night, I can't sleep well."
Captain Yin happened to hear it, and he was so angry that he kicked it. Wang Er's blind man looked pretty good, he avoided it, and grinned his teeth and said, "Tao Yin, you have something to say, don't flash your expensive waist."
"Honestly, someone paid 350 taels last month, asking you to find someone to be a refugee, and then you returned the money. Is there anything wrong?" Captain Yin asked.
If you want to examine an old fried dough stick like Wang Er, no one is better than Captain Yin. Hua Jingyao and Shen Xiao can only listen to each other.
Wang Er blind man shook his head: "Do you lose someone? Oh, hey, I, Too Yin, I just sell fake medicine on weekdays, I dare not do anything else."
"Is that true? Come on, be punished!"
Captain Yin waved his hand, and the blind man Wang Er begged for mercy immediately: "Don't, I said, I'll say all, I'm looking for two brothers from the Yang family at that time, and those two were black. But those two didn't know what happened, but they came to me after two days and said that they would not do this order and returned the money to me. What can I do? I had to return the money again."
Not many people with the surname Yang, but Hua Jingyao and Shen Xiao, together with Captain Yin, knew one, Yang Yuancheng.
The Yang family brothers were from the Jianghu. They were originally killers, but later they were thrown into the Longan Palace. Among them, Yangyuan City was one of the seven people who injured Zuo Abao, and the other five killers also died at their hands.
What’s more coincidental is that Yangyuan City is in Shuntian Prefecture. Chen Xiao and Feiyuwei took Feiyuwei to capture not only Master Hua Si, but also Yangyuan City.
