Chapter three hundred and thirty second cryptic farewell
It is no exaggeration to say that the Night Pearl is priceless.
According to reports, Cixi was buried with a luminous pearl in her mouth after her death. In the 17th year of the Republic of China, this luminous pearl was stolen by Sun Dianying's troops and given to Madam Chiang, who used it as a shoe ornament.
This luminous pearl weighs more than four taels and is worth 10.8 million taels of silver.
Someone in later generations calculated that this value was equivalent to RMB 810 million!
800 million, just one bead. Even if the one in Zhu Daoshan's hand is not so heavy and its value is not so amazing, it must not be much different, and it must be sky-high.
For such a sky-high price treasure, Zhu Daoshan is not allowed to search it publicly. What is the secret behind it?
Are you afraid that Yang Xianfen will act up? Otherwise, why are you afraid that she will know?
"Team leader Lin, you won't be angry if the minister makes such a request, right?" Pang Xinghan saw Lin Chuang's solemn expression and didn't know what he was thinking, so he quickly asked cautiously.
Yes, Lin Chuang is the leader of the intelligence team, and Zhu Daoshan actually asked him to handle a private case. How is this any different from treating Lin Chuang as his retainer?
"How could it be? Secretary Pang, you are overthinking. I am not that sensitive. Mr. Zhu is willing to entrust such an important matter to each other in private, which shows that he values me. It's too late for me to be flattered. How can I be angry?" Lin Chuangdao said
.
"As long as you don't care. The minister has no choice but to think of you as a detective. In his heart, he treats you as one of his own." Pang Xinghan said with relief.
"I'm a little confused. Since I don't want to investigate openly, how can I investigate secretly?" Lin Chuang asked.
"The minister has made arrangements. The government is looking for a history tutor for the young master a few days ago. The minister wants you to apply for this role. You can help the young master with his homework and conduct searches secretly," Pang Xinghan said.
"This arrangement is okay. The tutor will take care of food and accommodation?" Lin Chuang asked.
"You can live in the mansion on the grounds that you are homeless. The minister will arrange for you to meet in the study, of course, the purpose is to let you see the scene." Pang Xinghan replied.
"There are two top priorities now. The first is to determine the time of the theft; the second is to prevent the treasure from being secretly transferred out of the house by the thieves. In this way, I will make some arrangements first, arrange my subordinates outside the house, and carry out the actions of the people in the house outside the house.
"Secret surveillance, and then I will go to Zhu's Mansion to apply for the job before eight o'clock, what do you think?" Lin Chuang said.
"Very appropriate, I will go back to the government and report to the minister." Pang Xinghan got off the car after saying this.
Lin Chuang turned around and returned home.
He first called Wu Liangce: "Fat man, there is a suitcase in the safe. Come and take care of it today."
Because we are on the phone, some things cannot be said too directly.
But the two of them had a very tacit understanding. How could Wu Liangce not understand?
"Xiao Zhai, I really have you, that's great! I haven't had the pleasure of it for a long time." Wu Liangce said happily.
"Besides, I have a case to investigate. I'll borrow Jun Jiang for a few days and ask him to report to Shao Jijun."
"Are you finished? You just finished handling the case, can you take a two-day break?" Wu Liangce asked.
"Nonsense, do you think I am willing?" Lin Chuang choked him.
“Okay, I’m talking in vain, I’m so exhausted that you’ll knock me down!” Wu Liangce didn’t have anything nice to say and hung up the phone directly.
Lin Chuang then called Shao Jijun: "Jijun, come to my house right away."
"Okay, I'll be there soon." Shao Jijun responded.
Putting down the phone, Lin Chuang hurriedly left the house.
As soon as he entered the yard, he shouted: "Zheng Ma, prepare breakfast for two people, I will take it away."
"Okay." Zheng Ma responded in the kitchen.
"Surnamed Lin, since when did Mother Zheng become your servant?" Tian Biyu was dressing up in the bedroom. When she heard Lin Chuang's voice, she shouted out the window.
Lin Chuang came in, hugged her, kissed her, and said mischievously: "My dear, even you are mine, what's yours isn't mine?"
"Go, go, what are you causing trouble?" Tian Biyu had just combed her hair and was hugged by Lin Chuang. It was a little messy. She quickly pushed Lin Chuang and gave him a big hygiene ball.
Seeing his lover's cute and angry look, Lin Chuang didn't smile, but felt a little sad.
He stared at Tian Biyu dreamingly and thought to himself: "Oh, we won't be together for long, and then we will have a long period of lovesickness."
Tian Biyu saw that Lin Chuang was a little abnormal. He did not get tired of it as usual, but stared at himself stupidly. He quickly looked at his face and head in the mirror, but did not see anything strange.
I couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong? Is there flowers on my face?"
"Xiao Yu, you are so beautiful, I can't get enough of you." Lin Chuang said solemnly.
Lin Chuang was so serious, which made Tian Biyu even more surprised: "I said Lin Xiaozhai, what's wrong with you? You're a little weird today."
"Do you really want me to kiss you? Never leave me for a moment? It's a pity, I have to handle a case, a secret case, and I don't have time to accompany you. My dear, wait for me." Lin Chuang stood up.
, hugged Tian Biyu and said with a pun.
"Go, go, go and do your business, who wants to be with you?" Tian Biyu rolled her eyes at Lin Chuang and pushed him.
Lin Chuang walked out depressedly, thinking: "I wonder if she can understand what I say?"
…
When she got home, Zheng's mother had already laid out breakfast. Just as she was about to sit down to eat, Shao Jijun also rushed over.
"Let's eat some together and talk while eating," Lin Chuang said.
"It just so happens that I haven't even taken my humble job yet." Shao Jijun was not polite and sat down opposite Lin Chuang.
"A treasure has been lost in Minister Zhu's house. It is initially estimated that there is a thief. For the sake of face, he does not want to make it public, so he entrusts me to conduct a secret investigation. After dinner, I will stay at Zhu's house as a tutor.
You, Junjiang, Gao Yang, Facai, and Lao Liu are guarding the outside of the mansion. Their main task is to keep an eye on the people in the Zhu mansion to see if they have any suspicious behavior and who they have come into contact with. These people are not spies and have not received special training.
So it shouldn’t be difficult to keep an eye on." Lin Chuang said while eating.
"Team leader, what kind of treasure is it? Is it easy to carry?" Shao Jijun asked.
"Night Pearl." Lin Chuang replied in a low voice.
"Ah? Such a valuable thing has been stolen, why don't you call the police to investigate?" When Shao Jijun heard that it was the Night Pearl, his jaw almost dropped in shock.
"The apparent reason is that he is afraid that his wife will know, and there must be some secrets inside," Lin Chuang said.
"Okay, team leader, don't worry." Shao Jijun nodded and said.
"Our contact code is the 'swastika' symbol. Remember this symbol. We will all use this symbol in the future and it will not change." Lin Chuangdao.
"Yes." Shao Jijun said.
"And the most important thing is, no matter what happens, Pang Xinghan, Zhu Daoshan or even his guards cannot see the faces of any of you. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Shao Jijun nodded.
After breakfast and seeing Shao Jijun off, Lin Chuang put on a white shirt, blue pants, a watch, a pair of glasses on his nose, and a black leather bag in his hand, and went out refreshingly.
I flagged down a rickshaw and headed to Shuanglong Lane.
