Jiang Hao didn't talk nonsense with him, took out the scrap of paper, and handed it to the shopkeeper:

"Do you know this?"

When the shopkeeper saw the scraps of paper, he was startled at first, then hesitated, and hesitated, not knowing what to say.

As soon as Jiang Hao saw the shopkeeper like this, he knew there was a clue, so he mentioned it with a fine iron and simple knife.

"It seems that you know something. If you don't tell the truth, you may have to go to the dungeon for a while."

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he could speak sharply:

"My lord, I am wronged, I am wronged, a villain shouldn't be greedy, it's all my fault for being blind to money, I didn't know it was yours, if the villain knew, lend me ten guts, and I wouldn't dare to cheat him! Villain This will make up the rest of the silver for you."

Jiang Hao was confused!

what my people?

Who did you cheat again?

What's the mess?

"This is all a mess, tell me, what happened?"

"Didn't you ask him to come?" The shopkeeper was a little puzzled.

"Are I asking you, or are you asking me? Don't hurry up and ask the truth."

"Yes, yes, the villain will say it."

The shopkeeper wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and continued:

"I opened the door for business this morning. As soon as I opened the door, a man walked in and said he wanted to exchange the bank notes. When I picked up the bank notes he handed over, I found that it was a huge amount of 1000 taels."

"I couldn't help but take a closer look at him. I saw that the man was seven feet long, thin, and dressed plainly. He didn't seem to be a rich man. He was indeed carrying a huge sum of money at the moment, but he made me take a second look."

"When I verified the authenticity of the bill, I found that there was a piece missing in the lower right corner, and the villain just..."

……

"Guest officer, I'm afraid that the receipt of yours is from a wrong source?"

The shopkeeper said to the man in front of him.

He didn't expect to be seen through by the shopkeeper at a glance, and the hidden weapon hidden in his hand was ready to be released.

"Oh, shopkeeper, why is my bank note wrong?"

"Hehe, guest officer, don't be nervous. You see, there is a dime missing. I'm afraid it will be difficult to pay the full amount."

He breathed a sigh of relief, and Fei Zhen also retracted it into his palm.

"Then according to the shopkeeper, how much can you pay?"

He also didn't notice when the bank note was missing a corner.

Chapter 034 Meeting Xiaoyu Again

The shopkeeper went on to say: "I saw the man's expression panicked, and I knew that the man's bank note might not come from the right place, so I planned to scam him, saying that his bank note was short of a dime, and he could only pay half of it. Unexpectedly, he readily agreed and said that it would be fine as long as he exchanged it into loose bills, so I asked him to wait outside and arranged for someone to withdraw the money for him."

Jiang Hao hurriedly asked: "How long has he been gone? Do you know this person?"

"I've been away for about an hour, and the villain doesn't know him."

"What color clothes did he wear? You can recall some details about him."

"Let the villain think again, think again."

The shopkeeper wiped the slender man on his forehead again. At this time, he also felt that something was wrong. He was afraid that the money would be hot to hold. If he had known this, he would not have accepted it against his conscience.

"The man is seven feet long, thin and thin, with a high bun and wearing gray linen clothes. Oh, by the way, there is a mole on the corner of his mouth."

Jiang Hao basically confirmed that this person was the murderer, and then he cast a 'reconnaissance technique' on the shopkeeper, and he found the similar footprints.

The corner of Jiang Hao's mouth was raised slightly, "Small sample, I didn't expect that there are still your footprints here."

Jiang Hao followed the footprints and was about to chase after him, but suddenly thought of something, braked suddenly, and returned to the bank.

"Sir, what other orders do you have?"

Seeing them leaving, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it was all right, but he didn't expect them to come back after killing them.

Jiang Hao stretched out his right hand in front of the shopkeeper, rubbed his index finger and middle finger with his thumb, and then spread his palm.

He looked at the shopkeeper with a serious face.

"Oh~ yes, yes, yes, please wait a moment, my lord, and I will go get it now, my villain."

Jiang Hao couldn't help but feel amused seeing the shopkeeper's wit and wit. He didn't expect this gesture to be used in ancient and modern times!

"My lord, this is the bank note you exchanged for half of the note, 500 taels, please order."

The shopkeeper bowed and handed over a bank note with a denomination of 500 taels.

"Well, sensible. Let's do it for today."

Jiang Hao handed the banknote in his hand to Su Nianxue and said:

"Nian Xue, here, this is your family's money, put it away!"

Su Nianxue shook her head: "Young Master Jiang, keep it. You saved me. I haven't repaid you yet. Now I'm asking you to help me find the murderer. Take the money."

"Hey~ What is repayment and no repayment? Did I save you for your money? What do you think of me? Now is the time for you to spend money. Your father is going to be buried, and the servant's family needs to be paid. Why don't you want money? Take it."

After all, Jiang Hao forced the money into Su Nianxue's hands.

Su Nianxue didn't expect that Mr. Jiang in front of him was so upright, he didn't take advantage of others' danger, he didn't covet money, he had a clear distinction between good and evil, and he was eager for justice.

Maybe even Su Nianxue didn't know that when her family suffered sudden changes and she was alone and helpless, Jiang Hao became her new support in her heart.

"Let's go, why are you in a daze? The murderer is still waiting for us to catch him?"

Jiang Hao glanced at Su Nianxue who was still fixed in place, took her hand and walked forward.

Su Nianxue was startled, in public, men and women could not kiss each other, she wanted to pull out her hand out of shame, but she didn't expect Jiang Hao's grip to be tighter.

Su Nianxue who didn't pull out her hand thought to herself: 'Does he like me?Su Nianxue, Su Nianxue, what are you thinking? My father has just left, and the family feud has not been avenged. How can you have an affair with your son and daughter! '

At this time, Jiang Hao was concentrating on using the 'exploration technique' to trace the footprints on the ground. Because the footprints are relatively shallow, he might not be able to find them if he is not careful. He didn't pay attention to what was wrong with him grabbing Su Nianxue's hand. I feel that if women are open, what does it matter if men and women hold hands on the street?

The two tracked all the way and came to a gambling house:

Foursquare Casino.

"Help, let me go, help!"

"Xiaoyu? Isn't this your maid? Why is she here?"

Jiang Hao looked familiar to the two gangsters in front of him, and carried Xiaoyu into the Sifang casino. Xiaoyu screamed for help, but the people around him didn't even dare to raise their heads, let alone step forward to stop them.

"Go, go up and have a look."

……

Ever since Xiaoyu received the letter from her family, she knew that her younger brother was in trouble again. When she was young, her younger brother was unlearned and idle.

Hanging out with foxes and friends every day, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling is full of five poisons.

This time, my father was also implicated. Thinking of my father being so old and suffering such a crime, I feel distressed for a while.

So I took two days off with the housekeeper, bought a few doses of nourishing decoction from the doctor, and brought all my savings back home.

After Xiaoyu got home, she found that the matter was far more serious than she had imagined. One of her younger brother's hands was chopped off, and her father was even more anxious and sick. Only her elderly mother was left busy.

Xiaoyu, who knew the cause and effect, knew that it was the appearance of benefactor, so that the result did not develop to a worse place.

However, in the middle of the night the next day, Liu Er's group came again, took Xiaoyu's younger brother away, and asked Xiaoyu's family to raise money, and then went to Sifang Casino to redeem him.

Perhaps knowing that Xiaoyu is a maid of the Su family, she didn't make things difficult for Xiaoyu.

After all, the Su Mansion is a prominent local family, Sifang Casino is a local tyrant, and everyone lives in peace and harmony.

Her younger brother was taken away, so Xiaoyu had no choice but to go back to the Su Mansion to see if she could ask the housekeeper for an advance or borrow some silver taels.

However, Xiaoyu never expected that the well-behaved Su Mansion would be slaughtered. The corpses everywhere scared Xiaoyu, so she hurried to the Yamen to report the case.

All of a sudden, the news that the Su Mansion was wiped out spread wildly, and all kinds of rumors and gossips were flying all over the sky.

Su's house is gone, and Xiaoyu wants to go to the Sifang Casino to beg for mercy with the only ten taels of silver in her pocket, and give them a few days' grace, hoping that they will not hurt her younger brother.

However, before he arrived at the casino, he was spotted by Liu Er's gang.

"Third brother, isn't this the kid's sister? I was looking for her, but I didn't expect her to come to my door."

"That's right, second brother, now that everyone in Su's mansion is dead, there is only this maid left. No one will pay attention to it. Let's sell her into a brothel. Hehe, we brothers can make a fortune again."

"Hey, what are you waiting for, come on."

Say it.

Before Xiaoyu could react, he carried Xiaoyu into the Sifang Casino not far away.

……

"Let go of me, you let me go, I have money, please let me and my brother go, we will find a way to pay back the rest of the money, please."

Xiaoyu was terrified at this time, she never thought that they would dare to tie her up in public.

"Hehe, do you have money? How much do you have? You know, your brother owes the casino 200 taels of silver with principal and interest. How much do you have? Can you afford it?"

Liu Er looked at the third child very proudly.

The third child also understood the meaning of the second brother in seconds.

In fact, even the usury with high principal and interest is not so exaggerated, but if you want to sell her for a good price but are afraid that Xiaoyu will really take out 100 taels, then it will be morally untenable.

You know, when traveling in the rivers and lakes, morality is at the forefront. If the morality is untenable, it will only provoke the ridicule of the brothers on the road.

Chapter 035

"What? Isn't it only 100 taels? Why did it rise to 200 taels in just a few days, you...you are bastards!"

Xiaoyu's body was trembling with anger, she knew that this time it might be hopeless.

"Haha~ Yes, we are bastards, hahaha! Let me see, the little lady looks like a water spirit, it seems that she can really sell for a good price..."

Liu Er and Lao San laughed proudly for a while, and the casino was full of people and smoky, but no one noticed the abnormality here. Occasionally, someone noticed the abnormality in the backyard, and it was Liu Er and his gang People don't want to meddle in their own business.

"No~ Please, let me go~ Take your dirty hands away..."

……

Jiang Hao followed the murderer's footsteps all the way to the Sifang Casino. At the entrance of the casino, he found Xiaoyu being dragged into the Sifang Casino by two hooligans.

Jiang Hao hurriedly followed Su Nianxue into the casino.

I saw that the casino was overcrowded, and all kinds of noisy voices rang in my ears.

"Buy big, buy big, I want to buy big!"

"Buy and leave, buy and leave, open... four, five, six o'clock."

"Haha, follow me with the next hand, I'm lucky, I put all in, and this hand immediately turned red."

……

Su Nianxue frowned as she looked at the smoky environment in front of her. She didn't like the environment here very much, but in order to solve the case, she had to endure it.

As the two of Jiang Hao entered the casino, some people gradually noticed Jiang Hao and the others.

But the atmosphere didn't stop, they just looked at what Jiang Hao and the others wanted to do when betting.

The people who hang out in the casino are all local hooligans, and they are not afraid of the police at all.

Everyone is curious, what are you doing here?

Jiang Hao glanced around, and subconsciously threw a few probing techniques over:

Character: Liu Ergen

Identity: Gambler

Level: Lv.4

Vitality: 160/160
