Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 033 A wealthy family.

After returning to Wen's mansion, Wen Meng couldn't wait to tell Wen Yidao and Yin Wucuo about today's events. After listening to them, they all felt that today's events were thrilling and exciting, and they worshiped Hua Lang even more.

And at dusk, when the afterglow was shining, in the living room, Wen Yidao looked at Hua Lang and asked, "I have a few words to ask my nephew, and I hope my nephew will not think I'm troublesome."

Seeing Wen Yidao say this to Hua Lang suddenly, everyone became interested. What does Wen Yidao want to ask Hua Lang?

Seeing this, Hwa Lang quickly replied: "Uncle said something. If uncle has something to say, it's okay to ask. My nephew knows everything."

Wen Yidao nodded slightly, and then asked: "The matter between you and my daughter has been decided, but I don't know what your plan is. Do you want to live like this for the rest of your life without thinking about making progress?"

Hearing Wen Yidao ask himself this question, Hua Lang was also a little confused. Living in Wen Mansion like this is really not an option, but if he moves out, he really doesn't have the money to buy a big mansion for Wen Meng. Yidao thought about his daughter's future, and he had to think about it to some extent.

Wen Mengmeng Hwarang's face was a bit ugly, so he quickly said: "I like the current situation very much, if I don't want to change, my father shouldn't force Hwarang."

Wen Yidao frowned, and said: "You are a woman, you can maintain the status quo, and Hwarang is an imposing man, you always have to do something, so how can you just do nothing every day?"

Wen Meng wanted to say something else, Hua Lang quickly said: "What uncle said is very true, you entrusted Wen Meng to take care of me, I naturally want to plan for her future, originally in the next scholar, the imperial examination is official It’s just that before his death, my father warned me again and again that if I fail to pass the imperial examination, I will not be able to enter the officialdom through other means in this life.

After listening to Hwarang's words, Wen Yidao couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Originally, he thought that Hwarang was a scholar who went to take an examination for a Jinshi, and then waited for the imperial court to assign an official position to become an imperial official. His daughter was betrothed to him, but now Hwarang has no intention of career, but he is very disappointed.

"If you don't want to be an official, what do you want to do?" Wen Yidao still refused to give up, and then continued to ask.

Hwarang thought for a while, and said: "My nephew has some experience in detecting and solving crimes, so I want to be a private detective, so as to collect commissions to support the whole family."

When everyone heard the term "private detective" for the first time, they felt it was very novel, and Wen Yidao asked quickly, "What is a private detective?"

Hwarang didn't want to explain too clearly, because if he explained too clearly, it would make them misunderstand. He thought for a while, and quickly replied: "Private detectives are helping others solve problems that cannot be solved. Most of them are cases, and after I help them solve their difficulties, I collect a certain fee."

This kind of explanation is very clear, but after everyone listened to it, they all felt that it was not very reliable. After careful consideration, Wen Yidao said: "In life, you will indeed encounter various difficulties, but are they willing to ask you for help?" , if it is a major homicide or dispute, they will go to the Yamen to sue, isn’t there not much market for you to do this?”

After listening to Wen Yidao's words, Hualang smiled slightly, and said: "Uncle's analysis is not bad, but in life, many people don't like to deal with the government when they encounter difficulties, and some difficulties are not handled by the government. For example, the difficulty that uncle encountered a few days ago, have you ever thought of going to the government?"

When Hwarang asked him this rhetorical question, Wen Yidao also felt that it made some sense, some things could not be made public, but they had to be resolved, so they had to ask for private help, but he still had a question.

"But who would ask you for help? People here haven't heard of private detectives?"

Hwarang smiled lightly, and said: "That's right, it's really hard to be a private detective, but when I make a name for myself, everything will fall into place. At that time, I'm afraid I still need Brother Yin's help."

Seeing that Hua Lang thinks highly of him, Yin Wucuo said with a smile: "Brother Hua, if you have anything to say, you can just speak up." After Zhang Yanyan's face, he was more sure that he must have a good relationship with Hwarang.

Seeing that Hwarang had his own plans, Wen Yidao stopped asking. What is important for a young man is what kind of dreams and ambitions he has, not how unreliable his dreams and ambitions are.

Such a night without talking, early the next morning, Hua Lang invited Yin Wucuo and Wen Meng to accompany him to the county government office to watch Bao Zheng's case. Hua Wan'er felt that staying in Wen's mansion was boring, so she also quarreled and went with her. .

Wen Meng was indeed very interested in the murder case in the suburbs, but she didn't understand why Hua Lang was so concerned, so she asked, "Are you worried that Brother Bao won't be able to solve this case?"

Hua Lang smiled lightly, and said: "Bao Zheng will definitely be able to solve this case, but with my help, it may be faster, and I went to help a lot, so I was able to make a name for myself, and then I did business Acceptable."

Fame is very important, Wen Meng nodded slightly to show that she understood.

After coming to the county government, because Bao Zheng didn't regard Hua Lang and Wen Meng as outsiders, he quickly revealed their investigation.

"The identity of the deceased has been ascertained. He is Dong Chengdong, the owner of Chengdong Rice and Grain Store. I have already invited his wife to come and ask questions. I will be there soon."

Hwarang nodded slightly, the person in the rice business must be from a well-to-do family, with more than 1000 taels of silver on him, which is normal, if you want to know more clues now, you can only wait for Mrs. Dong to come.

Not much to say, two yamen servants led a blessed-looking, plump, but very charming middle-aged woman to the county yamen. The woman's eyes were red, as if she had just cried a lot. She came to the county yamen After that, he cried out to see his husband, Bao Zheng, Hua Lang and others saw this and knew that this woman was Dong Cheng's wife.

However, for the sake of caution, Bao Zheng still sent a yamen servant to lead her to identify the corpse first, and then make inquiries after the confirmation.

And when a yamen servant led Mrs. Dong to identify the corpse, another yamen servant came to Bao Zheng with half doubts, and said, "My lord, I found something, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Bao Zheng rolled his eyes and said, "Say something straight."

The yamen servant got the order, and quickly said: "When I went down to call the woman, I found a man fleeing from the back door of her house in a hurry, and his clothes were disheveled. I wondered if this woman had an affair with other wild men."

After the yamen servant finished speaking, everyone was shocked and silent.
