Mom, Jiang Xueling took Gu Wenxuan to his family’s shop.

Their business is the Bao Wen Tang stationery store, which has five storefronts and over 5 employees.

In front of everyone, Gu Wenxuan was dragged into their store by his mother, grabbing his ears.

To be honest, Gu Wenxuan felt a little embarrassed. Although he came from the 21st century and was a bit thick-skinned, he still felt a little embarrassed.

Gu Wenxuan looked up and still had some impression in his mind. He knew most of these employees.

His mother sat on a throne with a big horse and a golden sword in her hand. "Tell me, kid, what is your purpose in sneaking to my doorstep today? Do you have no money in your pocket or did something happen to you?"

Although she said the most vicious words, she actually cared the most about her son and was afraid that something might happen to him. Gu Wenxuan took the opportunity to wave his little fists and pat his mother on the shoulder.

"Mom, nothing happened to me, and I have money. You even asked the housekeeper to send me some money yesterday.

I just miss my mom and want to come and see her secretly!"

Jiang Xueling's eyes were red: "If you miss your mom, why don't you just come back openly? Why are you sneaking around?"

Xiao Man found the whip and came over to ask Jiang Xueling: "Madam, now that we have found the whip, will you still whip the young master?"

Gu Wenxuan glared at the silly girl Xiaoman fiercely, and everyone in the store laughed.

Xiao Xiaoman has no good eyesight.

Xiaoman is a little girl about 12 years old, chubby and cute, but not very smart. Madam Jiang Xueling likes Xiaoman very much.

She touched Xiao Man's head and said, "Xiao Man, put the whip away. We won't beat the young master today. If he doesn't obey in the future, we will beat him again."

Xiaoman nodded obediently and put the whip away.

Xiangzi did not follow Gu Wenxuan in. He stood outside the door with his arms folded, guarding his rickshaw. Jiang Xueling pointed at Xiangzi and asked Gu Wenxuan, "Why hasn't that rickshaw left? Do you want to go back?"

Gu Wenxuan: "The rickshaw driver is called Xiangzi. I have signed a monthly contract with him, so he goes wherever I go!"

"I say, you are acting so arrogantly. I know that the house you live in is not far from the detective station. It doesn't take long to walk there. You also hire a rickshaw every month. You must have so much money to burn.

You have to pay 60 dollars a month for rent and to support a Japanese mistress. Is that enough for you?"

"It wasn't enough originally, but my mom has someone bring me some money every month. Thank you, mom."

"What are you thanking me for! It's the best thing you can do for me if you don't get angry with me."

Mother Jiang Xueling smiled and said, "I heard that your detective team solved a big case yesterday and arrested a dozen habitual criminals who were rampant in Fangshan. Is that true?"

Gu Wenxuan said proudly: "Of course it's true, Xiangzi and I arrested these people personally, and there was a fierce gun battle!"

Jiang Xueling was horrified: "How come these 10+ bandits were captured by the two of you? Son, are you hurt? Let me take another look!

Gu Wenxuan pouted and said, "Can they hurt me? Your son is a wise and brave man, and he graduated from the Japanese Army School!"

"Even if you want to catch these bandits, you should bring more people with you. Why would you fight with a rickshaw driver?"

Gu Wenxuan smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, I don't want to fight them directly. Xiangzi and I went to Happy House to gamble and met these bandits. They closed the door and forced us to gamble with them.

There is no other way but to arrest these bandits. They are seeking their own death, so don’t blame me!”

At this time, Gu Wenxuan looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to what he and his mother were saying. Only Xiaoman was ignorant and was playing with a handkerchief beside them.

Gu Wenxuan leaned against his mother's ear and whispered, "Mom, let me tell you, when I confiscated the money from those bandits, I received a lot of silver bills, and I kept them at home.

When you can use it to buy goods, use it. It is inconvenient to keep it with me!"

As he spoke, Gu Wenxuan took out a handful of silver bills and some paper money.

He put them in Jiang Xueling's arms all at once. Jiang Xueling took a look at the silver bills and banknotes and found that they were worth more than 1 silver dollars.

She was horrified: "Son, you have received so many banknotes and you don't hand them in. If the Japanese find out, you will be arrested and thrown into jail. Be careful of your life."

Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, "Mom, don't be afraid. No one knows about this. At that time, hundreds of people in the casino ran out in panic because of the gunfight. Who knows how much money is left in this casino?

Besides, I have driven the bandit leader to the point of a nervous breakdown and he has become a madman. And the Japanese want these bandits. I have captured more than 20 bandits with him and I have done my best for them. What these people care about is face and promotion!

Besides, they didn’t know that these bandits brought so much money to the city to gamble, and if the Japanese had to hand it over, wouldn’t that be a big loss?

And I was risking my life at the time, so just use it with confidence, there will be no problem.

If things don’t work out after a while, I will resign as the captain of the detective team, so that people around me won’t call me a traitor! "

"Nephew, you can't resign your title as captain of the detective team. Even though you may be scolded for this title, no one dares to take advantage of your business!

You see, many businesses next to us have been extorted by the police and the gendarmerie for many excuses, and some are almost unable to continue operating!"

Gu Wenxuan turned around and saw a fat man and his father walking in. Gu Wenxuan's father Gu Hengzhi saw his long-lost son smiling happily in front of his mother and couldn't help but glared at him.

"You bastard, you still remember to come back. I thought you would never come back!"

When Jiang Xueling saw the two of them, she casually took a piece of newspaper and placed it on her knees, covering up the money and banknotes that Gu Wenxuan had given her.

As soon as Gu Wenxuan saw his mother's face, he knew that the matter of the money had to be covered up. The fat man who came in with his father was named Wenshan. His name was elegant, but his figure was not elegant at all, just like a mountain of flesh.

Wenshan likes to eat braised pork, so his whole body is a piece of braised pork. He is also a merchant on this street, but most of his business are bulky stone sculptures.

He loved playing chess with his father, so they often played together, and he left the family business to his son.

"Uncle Wen, long time no see!"

"My nephew, you are promising. You have become the captain of the detective team. People on our street envy your father. Although your reputation as the detective captain is not very good, it is nothing as long as you have a clear conscience. Besides, who doesn't know who knows about the affairs of this interface?

If you weren't the captain of the detective team, I don't know whether your business would be able to survive."

Wenshan was telling the truth. The world is now ruled by the Japanese, and many scoundrels are using the military police's power as a token of authority to extort money from merchants and ordinary people.

Gu Wenxuan certainly knew that his detective team members had done a lot of similar things.

While Gu Wenxuan and Wenshan were talking, Jiang Xueling quickly put the silver bills and banknotes into her own pocket.

"Uncle Wen, how about we find a place to sit for a while? How long has it been since you and I last met?"

At this time, Jiang Xueling's dissatisfied voice sounded again: "What? You little bastard, are you trying to escape again?"

Wenshan quickly smiled and said, "Nephew, forget it today. You just came back to have a good talk with your parents. We will get together another day!"

"That's fine! Uncle Wen, I'll treat you another day!"
