Chapter 59: Sanyang
Sun Dahai and the others were a little confused, but they still took the order to leave, Wang Tong also rubbed his forehead, but he did this with enthusiasm, but this detective really needs professional people, and what he just ordered is just some imitation from film and television novels.
There were a lot of people around to watch the excitement, but when they saw that Jinyiwei came to inquire, they suddenly made a bang and scattered, it was okay to see the excitement, and no one wanted to be involved.
Standing in the room where two people had died, the fire in the furnace was extinguished, and the room was cold, and although the sun was shining in, it was still gloomy.
Wang Tong didn't want to stay here longer, so he looked around and was about to leave, but this look felt a little wrong, the house was empty and there was no decoration.
Zhao shopkeeper has his own shares in the south goods store, the income is not low, with a family like him, the big porcelain vase in the house, the blue and white porcelain pot, and the copper and tin utensils must be a lot, but this hall is empty, there is no need to compare with other people's homes, Wang Tong's family did not go to Macau before they lived as rich as Zhao's shopkeeper's family, but Wang Tong's house at that time was much more neat and rich than the Zhao family at this time.
Wang Tong frowned and walked into the Zhao family's bedroom, opened the cages directly, rummaged through them, and found that there was no leather goods in the clothes, and there were no new clothes.
Such a person, how many leather clothes and clothes for the winter will have a few pieces, not only to keep warm, but also to be decent, Zhao shopkeeper this kind of welcome to send to the middle and upper merchants to take care of this face, but why is it so cold in the cage containing clothes.
When I turned around and was about to go out, I saw that there was an incense case in the corner of the bedroom, on which a bronze Buddha was offered, and the incense burner in front of the Buddha was still smoking.
Believing in gods and Buddhas, this is not a big deal, and the horse widow's family also worships Bodhisattvas, but this bronze Buddha is not the same as ordinary Buddha statues, Wang Tong glanced at it and looked at it carefully.
There is a Buddha light behind the Buddha statue, sitting cross-legged on the lotus, chanting with flowers, but this bronze statue looks like a Buddha, and it is also cross-kneeled on the lotus seat, but it is held high with both hands, there is a small sun in the chest and abdomen, and the raised hands each hold a small sun.
Wang Tong stared at the bronze Buddha for a long time, searched the memories of his past and present lives, and did not recognize that this was the Buddha or the god.
Nowadays, there are also many lamas of the Red Sect and the Yellow Sect among the Jingshi, could it be that this is a tantric offering? Wang Tong shook his head and didn't think about him.
With Wang Tong's pure layman's observation, it can be said that he can see so many wrong places, and after looking around a few times, he feels more and more that this place is gloomy and weird, and he hurriedly walked out of the house.
The crowd of people watching the excitement in this alley was crowded, and when the soldiers of the Jinyi Guard went out to inquire, they immediately dispersed and cleaned, and even the people on the street avoided this place far away, lest they get into trouble.
This kind of scene is the same in ancient and modern times, thinking that Wang Tong was also a role that had nothing to do with himself, he could only smile bitterly at this, and things could only be arranged to this point.
Wang Tong's heart was full of frustration, he originally thought that he could let Shuntianfu's arrest cooperate and solve the case cleanly, but he didn't expect it to become such a situation.
It was almost noon, and seeing that Sun Dahai and they were still busy on the street, Wang Tongsuo went back and called Widow Ma and Ma Sanbiao to take out the remaining ingredients in the delicious restaurant and start cooking.
The mother and son of the Ma family were busy there, Wang Tong sat in the hall, listening to the reports of the people who came back one by one, and there was no news on the street, but the neighbors asked something, as if this Zhao shopkeeper was not quite right since the time of Layue, and he was not in a good place.
And some people also saw Zhao's shopkeeper's mother-in-law secretly taking the things at home to the pawnshop, and occasionally some people who were wrong in the house went in and out.
Yesterday the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, some people also saw the Zhao treasurer and his wife, if so, this tragedy of the Zhao family almost happened at night.
However, the location of the Zhao family is also special, the warehouse and storefront of the South Goods Store just wrap the Zhao family's residence, even if there is any movement, the surrounding neighbors can't hear it.
After coming back, he went over to help Widow Ma cook, and Widow Ma hurried back to her home, where there was still Zhao Jinliang to take care of.
Although this lunch was in a hurry, there was also fish and meat, Wang Tong beckoned everyone to sit down and eat, Sun Dahai and the others politely buried their heads in eating, Sun Dahai ate a few bites, raised his head and said in a muffled voice:
"The residents on this side of South Street are much richer than those on Niulan Street, but they are too unpleasant to do things and talk, and they are spitting."
The people around him all spoke out in response, Wang Tong shook his head with a smile, and explained:
"The people are already scared when they see our clothes, so they can still speak ...... neatly"
While he was talking, the curtain of the door of this restaurant was lifted, but it was Zou Yi who walked in, and when he saw the room full of people, he was not polite, and said directly:
"Breakfast is eaten at your place, lunch is also settled, now go back to the palace, the people in the imperial dining room take care of the emperor and the nobles of the palace, and they will definitely take the leftovers of cold rice to our family, which is not as comfortable as your hot soup and hot water."
Such close people came to eat, naturally there was no reason to push it out, Wang Tong smiled and arranged for Ma Sanbiao to bring the food to Zou Yi and his two entourage.
Seeing that this person was a father-in-law in the palace, and he was close to Wang Tongyan, Sun Dahai and the others were a lot more careful, and they were bored to eat there, but Zou Yi was relaxed and comfortable, chatting a few words from time to time.
Zou Yi is a person like him, he didn't say a few words to see that Wang Tong was depressed, and he had to ask a few words, Zou Yi is an understanding person, Wang Tong finished talking about things, and he also wanted to hear the other party's opinion.
Hearing that Wang Tong was deflated in front of the Shuntian Mansion, Zou Yi laughed, and the chopsticks fell on the table, Wang Tong was so laughed that he couldn't touch his head, and Sun Dahai, Ma Sanbiao and others stared secretly, and they were not angry.
After laughing for a while, Zou Yi took a pair of chopsticks again, pointed at Wang Tong and joked with a smile:
"Lord Wang, your mind to abide by your duties is not wrong, but this way of doing things is too stupid, how to say it, it is like a rich family with gold and silver at home, but he is worried that he can't find copper coins to spend."
Wang Tong was not annoyed except for ignorance, the other party said this, he should have wanted to help with guidance, and hurriedly asked:
"What can Grandpa Zou do?"
In front of outsiders, the two people naturally can't be brothers, Zou Yi saw Wang Tong's calm expression, nodded slightly, praised the other party's calmness, and said with a smile:
"Lord Wang, what kind of identity are you now, and you still have a headache with the little errand of Shuntian Mansion, isn't that how things are done?"
