Chapter 424
A bad name came to Ye Caitang's mind. Huang Quan wouldn't be like Chu Shixuan, that would be terrible.
She has too much peach blossom debt and is busy. She had asked Xie Zhi for a charm to prevent peach blossoms from rotting. It wouldn't work.
Moreover, why do they all like to start in the kitchen? Maybe they have found out clearly that my relationship with Aunt Lin is unusual.
Are they all taking the mother-in-law route?
This was obviously the case, because Mr. Huangquan was sitting in the kitchen with six doors like a prince. He didn't talk too much to anyone, but was chatting with Aunt Lin.
While chatting, I was helping Aunt Lin peel the pumpkin.
Can you believe it?
A man who, although he has no official position, runs a casino and a house, is very rich according to Xia Yue, and has an extraordinary friendship with the current prince, is working for a kitchen lady.
Huang Quan used a small dagger to peel the pumpkin. The movements were so smooth that each piece of skin was of the same thickness, as if it was measured with a ruler.
Aunt Lin also praised: "Xiao Huang's sword skills are really good."
"That's not true." Huang Quan rolled up his sleeves, not caring at all about the vegetable leaves on his clothes: "My knife skills are not only good at cutting vegetables, but also killing fish. Especially the fish fillets, each piece is crystal clear,
There isn’t even a thorn on it.”
Aunt Lin smiled from ear to ear: "Xiao Huang is really awesome. He is good-looking and can also chop vegetables. He is really awesome."
Aunt Lin's criteria for judging people are very simple.
First, is he good-looking? She knows that Ye Caitang is a pretty girl and likes good-looking people. Although it is a bit superficial, everyone likes good-looking people. It is normal.
Secondly, is it rich? It doesn’t have to be too rich, but a man must at least be able to support his family.
Third, it would be perfect if I could help with household chores.
Although Ye Caitang told Aunt Lin several times that she was not in a hurry to find someone to get married to and that she knew what she wanted, Aunt Lin still felt that marriage was the most important thing for a woman, so she often wanted to marry her off.
Huang Quan was so proud that he waved to Ye Caitang: "Xiaoye, come have breakfast."
Ye Caitang walked over in a daze.
Boss Huang, you turned from a briquette into a butterfly in just one night. You are really amazing.
Aunt Lin served breakfast, Ye Caitang sat down to eat, and Huang Quan also sat down. He said naturally: "Aunt Lin also served me a bowl of pumpkin porridge, but I didn't eat it either."
"Okay." Aunt Lin smiled and served Huang Quan a bowl of porridge.
The two sat down opposite each other and began to drink porridge.
Of course, breakfast can't just be porridge, Aunt Lin also made minced meat rolls and pan-fried steamed buns.
Huang Quan picked up a flower scroll and was about to pass it to Ye Caitang when a hand reached out from behind him and snatched the flower scroll away.
"This flower roll is good." Xia Yue took a bite naturally and then sat down between the two of them.
When Ye Caitang saw Xia Yue, he suddenly felt relieved.
"Master Xia is here?" Huang Quan did not have any surprises, but it was very smooth: "I have been waiting for you."
Xia Yue admires Huang Quan's ability to tell lies with his eyes open. Are you waiting for me? You clearly have other intentions. If you want to come to me, you can come directly. Why do you have to cut melons and cut melons in the kitchen?
It took a long time to cook the dishes.
But although he complained in his heart, Xia Yue remained calm on the surface.
"Why are you looking for me so early?"
Huang Quan wiped his hands and took out a piece of paper from his arms.
"Aren't you investigating the case of the Li family's children being abducted?"
Huang Quan pushed the piece of paper to Xia Yue.
Xia Yue opened it and saw the location, a few names, and the approximate route written inside.
"What's this?"
Huang Quan continued to eat, and after taking two mouthfuls, he said: "This man named Zhao Shu, on the surface, is a salesman, selling goods in the streets. In fact, he has been doing the population business."
Ye Caitang was taken aback. He quickly bit the flower scroll and looked over, listening carefully.
Huang Quan said: "Zhao Shu has more than twenty people under him, and the division of labor is clear. Some are responsible for identifying suitable targets, mainly young women and children, some are responsible for contacting buyers, some are responsible for transportation, and some are responsible for arresting people. The money from the sale
, and then Zhao Shu will distribute it according to how much each person contributes."
Xia Yue really didn't know that this person existed, so he couldn't help but said: "How do you know?"
Huang Quan smiled: "You have forgotten that I run a gambling house. There are three religions and nine schools of thought in the gambling house. There is a mixture of good and bad. What news is there? In the capital, I don't know as many upper-class people as you do, but you don't know as much about the lower-class people as I do.
.”
Xia Yue had to admit that what Huang Quan said made sense.
Huang Quan said: "I compiled this list. You just need to arrest people according to the places. I'm not sure whether Li Laifu's child was abducted by them, but people in the industry usually have information about each other.
If not, they might have some clues."
The information provided by Huang Quan was really useful, and Xia Yue's dissatisfaction with him eased a bit.
Sure enough, he came here early in the morning, not to feel uncomfortable. He came to do business, so that can be forgiven.
But Xia Yue thought about it again and became unhappy again.
He scolded Huang Quan: "Your news came so timely, I guess I didn't just find out about it last night."
Huang Quan said frankly: "Of course not."
"Then why did you just say it now?"
Huang Quan took a chopstick of pickles and said calmly: "Because you are from Liumen, and I am not. I run a casino, and there are countless news every day. If I come and tell you every time I hear something problematic, I will
Can this casino still be open?"
If Huang Quan had told Xia Yue about this earlier and Xia Yue had arrested these people earlier, many people could indeed have been saved.
But what Huang Quan said is right.
The capital city has a prosperous scenery, but it also harbors filth and evil. Huang Quan is a casino owner, not a six-door spy. It is already very difficult for him to protect himself and not break the law. There is really no reason to report the case all the time.
"Besides." Huang Quan smiled: "Mr. Xia, do you know people who seriously abide by the law? Do you take it seriously and will be punished for breaking the law?"
This question is too sharp.
Imperial officials used their power to do too many illegal things. When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Even the emperor turned a blind eye to many things, let alone him.
Xia Yue nodded and decided not to argue with Huang Quan about this.
He raised the note in his hand and said, "If it's true, I'll remember you as a favor."
"No need." Huang Quan smiled smartly, then picked up a flower roll and stood up: "When the case is solved and rewards are given based on merit, just give Xiaoye an extra reward."
After saying that, Huang Quan took something out of his arms and placed it in front of Ye Caitang.
"This is for you, I'm leaving first."
Huang Quan left just like that.
