Chapter 39 Watching each other’s movies

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly when he heard this, it looks like it, it does look like it!

This is what the rumored Mr. Changhe can do!

Strangely enough, most of Mr. Changhe's calligraphy and paintings were not framed and did not look like they were given away by himself. Many people speculated that Mr. Changhe's paintings were stolen and sold.

After listening to Bai Chi's words, the shopkeeper suddenly realized that it turned out that Mr. Changhe liked to bet with his friends, and he lost nine out of ten bets!

Bai Chi knocked on the table and said, "Shopkeeper, please give me a price on how much these two paintings are worth."

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand to count.

"Thirty taels?" Bai Chi curled his lips, "That's too little!"

The shopkeeper shook his head and still made the gesture of three, "Three hundred taels."

"Three hundred taels!" Bai Chi exclaimed.

Darling, two random paintings are worth three hundred taels of silver?

He calmed down his expression and said, "Shopkeeper, this is boring, don't lower the price casually!"

The shopkeeper had a clue in his mind. He stroked his beard and began to find faults. "It seems that the painting method is Mr. Changhe's. However, this painting has not been framed. Secondly, it has no words and no signature.

The price is naturally greatly discounted, and you won’t find a higher price than this in other stores.”

"Little brother, think carefully about whether to sell it or not. There is no such store after passing this village!"

Of course I want to sell!

"Sell it, sell it, two hundred taels, just two hundred taels."

The two parties had a friendly transaction, and both parties were very happy when the deal was concluded.

The shopkeeper was very happy. He received two paintings by Mr. Changhe at once. Although there were only paintings without any calligraphy, there have been no new calligraphy and paintings by Mr. Changhe on the market for three years. This shortcoming is not harmful. You can't make a lot of money by hyping it up.

One stroke!

He gave the money happily.

Bai Chi was also very happy. He didn't expect that the two paintings he got casually in the prison were recognized as paintings by famous artists, and sold for so much money. It was an unexpected fortune, an unexpected fortune!

Bai Chi took the money happily. He went out with two 100-tael banknotes in his pocket. He turned a corner and instantly smiled.

This is worth a lot of time in jail!

Oops, I'm too embarrassed to ask that sister Duan for payment again.

"It's not good to rest after being in jail for a few days. You look a little bad."

"Is it because I didn't eat well that I lost weight?"

"When you get home, clean yourself up quickly and then have a good rest. You must be tired."

"I asked the cook to prepare ginger soup and hot porridge for you. When you get back, drink the ginger soup first to dispel the cold and moisture. After you wash up, you can drink some porridge to fill your stomach."

"Remember not to be gluttonous, it's not good for your health..."

On the carriage, Duan Qingrong kept talking all the way. Although he was chattering, Yi Yan was not impatient at all. Instead, he listened carefully with a smile and responded to every word.

Although he is nagging, the concern in his words is genuine and cannot be lived up to.

After returning to the house, Duan Qingrong wanted to stay a little longer, but considering that Yu Huan still needed to freshen up and rest, he gave a few final instructions and went back.

Yuan Yue went to serve ginger soup happily, while Lian Ying and Lian Shuang were busy preparing bath water. Before Yi Yan could enter the room, another servant came in a hurry.

"Miss, the master calls you to go to the study."

It looks like I can't take a break.

——

In the study room, Yi Yan held a bowl of hot tea in both hands and looked down at the tea leaves floating in the water. His brows were filled with steam as he answered Duan Chang's concerns in a serious manner.

"It seems that Wei Guanlan's hand stretches longer than we thought."

"What happened to you is probably Wei Guanlan's revenge."

Duan Chang summed it up this way.

"Maybe."

Yi Yan looked at Duan Chang and asked, "I wonder why my grandfather called me here specifically?"

Fang called her here as soon as he came back, naturally it wasn't just to express his concern.

"There has been a case of missing persons in Beijing recently, and I need your secret help in the investigation."

This should be the case Zhan Shuyun mentioned.

But, "Isn't this the responsibility of Dali Temple? What is my use?"

"Because all the missing people are women."

Duan Chang said seemingly unintentionally, "I heard that Zhan Xiao came to help the last time Wei Guanlan sent someone to assassinate him, and he even got to know a female secret guard."

Yu Yan understood, it was Zhan Shuyun who wanted to outdo others.

"Then according to Grandpa, what should I do?"

Duan Chang snorted softly, "You can solve the problems you caused by yourself."

Yi Yan responded and asked, "Grandpa, do you have anything else to say?"

Hearing Duan Chang say no, Yi Yan stood up and left. When he reached the door, he was stopped again.

"What are your instructions, grandfather?"

Duan Chang saw Yu Jin lowering his eyebrows and looking resigned, and his heart suddenly felt a little clogged.

"Have a good rest," he said.

"Thank you."

After saying that, he opened the door and left.

They all said that she should have a good rest, but in fact, Yi Yan was not tired, let alone couldn't sleep. After returning from Duan Chang's study, Yi Yan had washed himself and the sky was already dark. She excused herself to rest, ordered not to be disturbed, opened the door backwards, and led all the way through the secret passage.

darkroom.

At this time, the dark room looked empty. After igniting the candle on the wall through the mechanism, Ember pressed the hidden weapon mechanism, jumped down, jumped up and flipped, shuttled through the hidden needles and arrows, and the hidden needles reflected

The cold light cut through the depth in her eyes, like a sharp blade cutting through the darkness, adding even more edge.

These were the tests for joining the secret guards. The injury on her left shoulder was also pricked by the needles here. Although she passed the test, regardless of the specific details, if she was injured, it was an injury. It was because she was not strong enough.

If it's not enough, then improve yourself.

In the darkness of the light, an unclear shadow appeared, flickering on and off, a figure sitting on the shadow of a wheelchair,

Watching the shadows flying and jumping on the screen wall, I tapped the handrail with my fingertips, silently.

The sky breaks through the morning mist and falls into the world. The smoke rises from the chimneys, trying to reach the sky. The sellers carry poles and walk through the streets shouting loudly. The vendors set up their stalls and prepare roadside breakfast. Students may prepare book boxes.

Or walking in a hurry with a basket of books, the shops on both sides are open to welcome customers, passing by a blacksmith shop and hearing a tinkling sound...

It was very lively in the early morning.

As the saying goes, a year's plan begins in spring, and a day's plan begins in the morning. Although it is late spring, spring has not completely passed. Spring and morning are both, which should be the most energetic and energetic time.

At that time, the embers were lifeless and very tired.

"Sir Zhan, we are not in a hurry to investigate the case for a while. Is it necessary to come to ask for someone so early?"

Under the mask, Yi Yan was sleepy-eyed, yawning from time to time, and followed Zhan Shuyun through the bluestone streets in the morning.

"I went to work as a thief last night. I'm so tired."

Why do you want to be a thief? He goes to practice martial arts.

But he said: "Yes, he became a thief."

"Then what did you little thief steal?"

"You're a flower picker after you steal the warm-scented nephrite!"

"You are so young and very courageous." Zhan Shuyun's lips curled up slightly, "Tell me what flowers you picked. Let me see how long you have to stay in jail."

"There are so many plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, morning glory, peach blossoms, orchids, pomegranate flowers..."
