I Made a Fortune by Marrying a Sick Girl!

Chapter 32 Quiet Night

Qin Chi was actually standing in the corridor outside the door.

Hearing the suppressed crying coming from inside, Qin Chi's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something.

Several times I wanted to rush into the house to comfort her.

Finally, I suppressed it.

Song Jin didn't want his secret to be known.

Qin Chi fulfilled her wish and pretended not to know.

From the first day he met Song Jin, Qin Chi could tell that she was extremely defensive of outsiders.

There seemed to be a thick wall built around her.

Block the prying eyes of outsiders.

And trust between people cannot be established overnight.

If one day she opens her heart to him, she will naturally take the initiative to tell him.

In this regard, Qin Chi is very similar to Song Jin.

He stood for a long time.

Qin Chi walked to the west wing.

On the innermost wall.

There was a large bookcase on the wall, and Qin Chi pressed a switch.

The large bookcase is divided into two parts.

A secret door appeared in the middle, only one person could pass through.

Qin Chi passed through the secret door.

Came to the house next door.

This room is the same size as the west wing.

Opening the door, there were two people guarding outside.

One is shopkeeper Tao.

The other is a man in his thirties who is leaning on crutches.

The man had a full beard and a fierce look, but there seemed to be clear stupidity in his eyes.

When the two saw Qin Chi, they immediately saluted.

Qin Chi looked at the man, "Didn't you say it would take half a month to get out of bed?"

"Sir, if I lie down any longer, my body will become moldy."

This man is Lao Huo.

He was originally recovering from his injuries in Tunxi, but he couldn't lie down even if he could move, so he had to be sent back to Yixian County.

The people over there couldn't resist him, in fact they were annoying him to death, so they could only send someone in a carriage to secretly send him here to recover from his injuries, and also sent Doctor Jing over.

Qin Chi asked them to sit in the room.

Shopkeeper Tao and Lao Huo went in.

The layout of the house is simple, like a small study room.

Qin Chi sat down and asked the two of them to find chairs to sit on.

Shopkeeper Tao was still hesitating whether to sit down.

Lao Huo had already limped to the chair closest to Qin Chi and sat down, "Sir, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm surprised."

When Qin Chi heard this, he got goosebumps inexplicably, "Speak carefully and think about it before you speak."

What does a grown man say he doesn’t want?

Especially since the other party looks like a big man who can make a child stop crying.

Shopkeeper Tao just delivered a cloth bag and said he had something to report, so Qin Chi asked him to wait for him next door.

Lao Huo, who was in the room, heard Shopkeeper Tao coming over.

Even with a cane on his back, he had to come and wait.

Shopkeeper Tao reported what happened in the past two days to Qin Chi, and then there was the investigation by the Hangzhou government.

When the ship has gone to sea.

The spies over there focused on the Zhu family again.

Someone was sent to contact the Zhu family in charge of the cargo ship, including some people who delivered the goods that day.

As Qin Chi guessed, the Zhu family was not behind the scenes. Someone asked them to come to Tunxi to pick up a batch of goods at a high price and deliver the goods to Hangzhou.

It is said to be valuable porcelain.

Be careful when letting them carry it.

There were special escorts throughout the entire process, and the employees on the Zhu family's ship were not allowed to approach the warehouse.

Qin Chi thought about it for a long time and asked in a deep voice: "Have you found out who in the Zhu family took the order?"

"Young master, you still suspect that there is something wrong with the Zhu family?" Shopkeeper Tao couldn't help but ask.

Judging from the information obtained through the investigation, the Zhu family does not look like insiders. On the other hand, Lao Huo looked at Shopkeeper Tao as if he were a fool, "Young master, I want you to follow this line to check. Even if the Zhu family has no problem, the person who took the order may also have a problem. Even if the person who took the order has no problem, the next Who Shan is, he should know, right?"

"There's no need to check. The person taking the order is the third young master of the Zhu family."

Shopkeeper Tao had a hard time talking about the third young master of the Zhu family.

Because this Third Young Master Zhu is only ten years old this year.

It is said that the order was taken by accident on the road. Needless to say, it was someone else's fault.

Although there is no seal of the Zhu family.

But the third young master of the Zhu family signed the contract.

Even though the head of the Zhu family suspected that there might be something wrong with this order, the other party just asked the Zhu family to transport a batch of Tunxi porcelain to Hangzhou, and a cargo ship would come to hand over the goods on the way.

Taking a risk, the Zhu family took it.

The customer naturally requested confidentiality.

But Qin Chi's people went to investigate and found out the general appearance of the person who placed the order. His surname was Fan. Others called him Mr. Fan. He claimed to be an overseas businessman and knew nothing else.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

"This is the portrait of Mr. Fan."

Shopkeeper Tao gave a portrait to Qin Chi.

Qin Chi opened it and took a few glances. It had a very ordinary appearance.

"Look for someone based on this portrait. If you don't have a thousand, you can find hundreds." Qin Chi threw the portrait on the desk.

The clue is thus broken.

Qin Chi was wondering about the whereabouts of the Song family.

Lao Huo stood up and walked to the desk, took the portrait, opened it and looked at it, "It's exactly what the young master said."

An ordinary and unremarkable appearance, lost in the crowd.

"Everyone has his or her own characteristics, but he looks ordinary. Sir, do you think there is something wrong with the painter? He deliberately painted this person's portrait like this."

Lao Huo told his guess.

Shopkeeper Tao was speechless, "I asked the Zhu family and they all said it was like this."

"Okay, this person may have been pretending."

Qin Chi didn't let them investigate again.

The people behind the scenes are very careful and clean.

Qin Chi asked: "There's no news from the northwest?"

"It's a long journey, so we have to wait for a while." Shopkeeper Tao knew Qin Chi was just asking.

Huizhou is really far from the northwest.

Just using a special channel to send the message would take more than twenty days.

Qin Chi told shopkeeper Tao something more and sent him back first.

At this time, Qin Chi turned his attention to Lao Huo and said, "Tell me, come to me if you want to, what's the matter?"

"Young Master still understands me."

Lao Huo looks like a rough guy.

But what I used to do in the army was technical work of detecting the enemy's situation.

Lao Huo scratched his beard and said with a smile: "I heard that the young master caught two people who were chasing me. Can I go and have a look?"

"Go find old Uncle Li."

Qin Chi waved his hand to indicate that Lao Huo could retreat.

It was a fluke that we caught the two of them in the first place.

Because these two people were stabbed by Lao Huo, Qin Chi asked people to guard various intersections of Tunxi, including the pier.

If you smell something medicinal on someone, check it out.

We really found two suspicious people.

Who knew that the other party would want to run away as soon as he saw something unusual.

They happened to catch him red-handed, knocked him unconscious and sent him to Zhuangzi outside Yi County for interrogation. Both of them were tough-talking and didn't dig out anything.

One thing is certain, he is indeed a dead soldier raised from childhood.

After sending Lao Huo away, Qin Chi returned to the west wing of his home.

Close the secret door.

After sitting in the room for a while, he opened the door and went to the east wing.

Dim light shone through the carved windows of the east wing, and a slender figure sat in the room. For a long time, no one moved.

Always a quiet night.

Only tonight, it was so quiet that it was heart-wrenching.
