Chapter 45 Bookstore Hu Wen Case
Chu Xiaoyun looked at Su Wen who was curled up under the blanket, and felt soft inside unconsciously.It's such a good feeling to have someone who cares about you, to have someone you care about!
The carriage creaked forward, and Yu He, who was riding the horse, asked: "Brother Chu, it's noon, and the sun is getting bigger and bigger, do you want to rest for a while?"
After hearing this, Chu Xiaoyun lifted the curtains of the carriage, looked up at the sun, and said to Yu He, "Okay, let's rest for a while. It's best to find a place with water and shade."
Yu He looked forward: "Not far ahead, the river beach is connected to the official road, and there are two big trees beside it, which is the best place in your mind."
"Okay, then rest there."
After Chu Xiaoyun and Yu He finished speaking, they put down the curtains and looked at Su Wen, "Wenwen, are you hungry?"
Su Wen smiled: "Fortunately, I was quite full in the morning."
Looking at Su Wen, Chu Xiaoyun couldn't help but pick up his little husband's cheek and gnaw a few mouthfuls.He couldn't wait more and more, and wanted to marry Ming Meizheng back.
Su Wen blushed, gently pushed Chu Xiaoyun, and suppressed his voice: "There are people outside."
Chu Xiaoyun caressed Su Wen's red lips kissed by him, and said in a low voice, "I'll just kiss, they won't know."
At the place Yu He said, the group stopped to rest.Yu Hedao: "Most of the places where Hejing County meets Yunling County are mountainous places. There are not many people on this road. There is only an inn thirty miles ahead. If you can't catch up or miss it, you have to sleep in the wilderness. After the rest, we have to hurry up." Hurry up.
Hearing Yu He's words, Chu Xiaoyun was even more fortunate to have Yu He accompany him on this mission.
They gathered some firewood, set up a pot, and started cooking food.While eating happily, Chu Xiaoyun heard a few slight sounds from the woods behind him, not like the sound of wind blowing.He looked back, but found nothing.Chu Xiaoyun put down the bun in his hand, squeezed the saber around his waist, and asked Yu He, "Did you hear any noise?"
Yu He also put down the bun in his hand: "I thought it was my hallucination, did you hear it too?"
The two stood up with their sabers in their hands, and looked around the surroundings with their backs facing each other.This place is a wide river beach, facing the river and distant fields and forests, behind it is the official road winding at the foot of the mountain, next to the official road is a dense forest, this is the best hiding place for assassins.Chu Xiaoyun said: "You can't stay here for long, you have to leave quickly. Be vigilant on the way."
Yu He replied "OK", let go of the hand holding the saber, and called the coachman Ran Gui to pack his luggage together.During this period, Chu Xiaoyun protected Su Wen, watching the surrounding environment with a vigilant expression.
Under the protection of Chu Xiaoyun, Su Wenwo asked fearfully, "My husband, is there any danger? Who will come to harm us?"
Chu Xiaoyun didn't look at him, but said softly, "Don't be afraid, your husband is here. No one can hurt you."
Having said that, Chu Xiaoyun didn't know what to do. Judging by the way the other party killed the informant, he was obviously not the opponent, and Yu He might not be, and it is not known how many people the other party has come.
But no matter what, Su Wen and Ran Gui are relying on him and Yu He now, they must not be afraid.
After returning to the carriage, Chu Xiaoyun asked Su Wen to lie down under the quilt to minimize the possible damage. He no longer sat in the carriage, but sat with Ran Gui on the side of the carriage near the mountains and forests. Always be on the lookout for ambushes that may pounce at any time.
Watching the shadow of the carriage disappear at the curve ahead, three black figures jumped out from the forest.The masked man on the left said: "Why don't you kill them? With the three-legged cat skills of these county government arresters, it is not easy to deal with them?"
The man in the middle said: "Although they are as small as dust, don't forget that they represent Dacheng's officialdom now. If these people die like this, the official will definitely investigate. Wouldn't this cause trouble for our great cause?"
"This person has ruined our good deeds several times. If he goes to Yunling this time, what should he do if he finds out something?" asked the person on the right.
"The traces of printing have been erased, what can he find out. Of course, if he breaks through the defense line of the printing workshop, what should be left, and what should be left for him." The man in the middle said.
"It's cheaper for him this time." The man on the left looked at the direction Chu Xiaoyun and his party were leaving, and said bitterly.
After walking for more than ten miles, I didn't find anything unusual.Yu He gradually relaxed: "It's okay, did we think too much?"
Chu Xiaoyun said: "There is nothing wrong with being vigilant."
"That's true." Yu He said, "We are now outside the boundary of Hejing County, and we will be able to reach the Yunhe Inn after more than ten miles."
After passing the junction of the two counties, you can see the hemp plants planted in the field along the way.The next day, they drove another thirty miles to Yunling County.They didn't stop when they entered the county seat, and went directly to the county government office to hand over the letter of worship.
The arresting house in Yunling County saw their letter of worship and read the Hu Wen book, and learned that this matter involved Hu people, they took it very seriously.
Although most of the paper in Yunling County is made of hemp materials, there are still differences in different workshops, different hemp materials, differences in production techniques, craftsmanship, water sources, etc.
The paper from various workshops was filtered through Su Wen's nose, and finally found the paper workshop that was consistent with the printing of Hu Wen's books.According to the customer list provided by the paper workshop, they began to check the printing workshop one by one.
I went to all the printing workshops, and none of the workshops admitted to printing that book, and Su Wen didn't smell exactly the same as that Hu Wen book.Leaving the last printing bookstore, the Yunling county police officer looked at Su Wen with some doubts: "He can smell the difference with just one sniff? Can't you make a mistake?"
Chu Xiaoyun protected his baby: "Wenwen has extraordinary talent in this area. Many things have verified his ability before, so he can't be wrong. There must be some link we missed."
Seeing that he couldn't find the printing workshop, Su Wen felt very guilty, and curled up in Chu Xiaoyun's arms without saying a word.Hearing what Chu Xiaoyun said, he suddenly exclaimed, "I know what's going on."
Everyone looked at Su Wen.
"Ink, it's ink." Su Wen exclaimed in surprise after reacting, "It must be because they changed the ink, so they couldn't find the same taste of the book."
Chu Xiaoyun quickly recalled it: "Yes, the paper has not changed, but the ink used in the printing workshop has been changed, so the taste of the book will naturally not be exactly the same."
"Then... what should we do now?" Yunling County's headhunter asked.
"Why don't we check the printing factory carefully again, I believe that there will always be clues left behind by what we have done." Chu Xiaoyun suggested.
The head arrester in Yunling County nodded in embarrassment after hearing this: "Okay, then try again. But be careful, you only have one chance."
Chu Xiaoyun was a little puzzled as to why the headhunter in Yunling County said such a thing, but he had to abide by other people's rules in other people's territory, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
A group of people returned to the printing workshop they investigated last, this time, starting from his house.
After Yunling County Butou and his party moved forward, Yu He quietly posted on it and said to Chu Xiaoyun: "Now Yan Butou has a competitor in the Yunling County Butou's room. So now Yan Butou is also working hard."
Chu Xiaoyun nodded knowingly.If they searched repeatedly and found no results, they might have to leave someone with something to talk about, making it difficult for Yan Butou to do.
Seeing that Chu Xiaoyun and his party went back and forth, the people in the printing workshop were quite puzzled, and the owner of the workshop came forward to greet him: "I don't know why the servants left and came back again?"
Yan Butou said: "There are still some doubts that have not been solved before, we have to investigate again."
Hearing this, the other party frowned subconsciously: "Yan Butou, our workshop was opened with the approval of the county government. You have searched repeatedly, which affects our business too much. The county magistrate will not be happy."
Yan Butou said: "This case interferes a lot, and I hope the owner of the workshop will forgive me."
After talking, Chu Xiaoyun was quite surprised.I remember learning the ranking of scholars, farmers, businessmen and commerce in elementary school history. In ancient times, although merchants were rich, they were at the bottom of society. Where did they come from to challenge the officials in the yamen.Although the status of the catcher is not high, but with the yamen as his reliance, ordinary people dare not offend.
But when he heard that the other party moved out of the county magistrate, he understood the relationship.It seems that no place is pure, and there are factional disputes everywhere.This Yan Butou, after getting along with Chu Xiaoyun all day, he felt that he was not bad, if he was going to face the pressure of the county magistrate, it would be a little daunting.After all, the county magistrate is the head of a county!
It was impossible for the police to detect the differences in the graphite used in printed books, and it could only be done by Su Wen.Su Wen whispered some of his thoughts in Chu Xiaoyun's ear.After hearing this, Chu Xiaoyun straightened up and asked, "Do you still have books that were printed a month and a half ago?"
Fangzhu said: "How can there be books that have been so long. They are printed only after they are ordered, and they are handed over to customers after printing. If the books so long ago have not been sold, the small shop will not be at a loss."
"Did something strange happen in the workshop half a month ago?" Chu Xiaoyun asked again.
The owner of the workshop shook his head: "I haven't found it yet."
Seeing a clerk adding ground ink to the ink cartridge for printing books and spilling a drop, the owner of the workshop immediately turned to the clerk and scolded: "Be careful, doesn't this ink cost money to buy? The ink from last time, I only printed so few books, I don’t know how much you have wasted!”
I heard a guy next to me muttering: "It's been more than half a month, and I bring it out every day."
Chu Xiaoyun was keenly aware of the difference, he waved to the muttering buddy: "What's going on?"
"What?" The guy was a little puzzled.
"It's what you said about half a month ago." Chu Xiaoyun said.
After hearing this, Fangzhu turned around and glared at the guy: "You are so powerful, do you still want to do it?"
Chu Xiaoyun said: "What's the owner's intention at this time? Could it be that you have something to hide?"
The owner of the workshop suddenly raised his voice: "I will have something to hide, this is a big matter involving barbarians. Don't pour dirty water on me."
"Then, if I have something to ask him and let him answer it, is it okay?" Chu Xiaoyun said, "You can't make things difficult for him, otherwise the arresting house will definitely treat you as revenge."
Fangzhu sneered: "Isn't it something they wasted, there is nothing you can't say. You love to ask."
Chu Xiaoyun turned to the guy and said, "Let's listen."
"There was a piece of ink half a month ago, and it was said that the number of books printed was less than before and after. But we really didn't waste it, and I don't know why, but we printed less than before." The guy said.
"It's just that there are fewer books printed than before?" Chu Xiaoyun grasped the key words and said, "Then Mo really printed fewer books than before?"
"Yes!" said the man, "but we really don't know what's going on."
Other guys in the workshop also talked about their feelings.
"It is true, and we don't know why it happened. The piece of ink seemed to be shortened a lot overnight. When I saw the piece of ink the next day, I thought it was a mistake."
"That's right, that's right. That piece of ink just printed the book for a few hours less than other inks, but we all use it the same way. It's so strange."
At this time, Su Wen took out a few sheets of paper that had errors in the printing process from the corner of the printing machine, put them under his nose and sniffed them.He sniffed again in disbelief, and then he exclaimed in surprise: "Husband, I found the same ink paper as "Prairie Eagle"."
As he spoke, Su Wen raised a few pieces of waste paper in his hand.
The carriage creaked forward, and Yu He, who was riding the horse, asked: "Brother Chu, it's noon, and the sun is getting bigger and bigger, do you want to rest for a while?"
After hearing this, Chu Xiaoyun lifted the curtains of the carriage, looked up at the sun, and said to Yu He, "Okay, let's rest for a while. It's best to find a place with water and shade."

Su Wen blushed, gently pushed Chu Xiaoyun, and suppressed his voice: "There are people outside."
Chu Xiaoyun caressed Su Wen's red lips kissed by him, and said in a low voice, "I'll just kiss, they won't know."
