Chapter 269
Jin Xiaoxiao was driven out of Xiao's house. Instead of being discouraged, she became more frustrated and more brave. She was ready to go to Xiao's house from time to time to block Bai's family.
On this day, she came to the gate of Xiao's house again. Not surprisingly, Bai sent more people outside Xiao's house. After checking, she went back to humen escort agency disappointed.
Maybe we can have a try at night. I don't know why, when I see Bai's extremely angry appearance, her mood will always be involuntarily happy.
Jin Xiaoxiao just walked into the gate of Humen escort agency, and a strong smell of wine came to his face.
Pei dehu sat in front of her bedroom door, with an empty wine jar at her feet. He was a little shaky, and his face was very red.
Seeing this, she frowned slightly and went to sit beside Pei dehu: "brother Pei, what's the matter with you? Why do you sit here drinking alone? But is there any trouble? "
Pei dehu raised his eyes and looked at Jin Xiaoxiao. He half narrowed his eyes and laughed at himself: "trouble? It's not just the trouble. Maybe in a few days, my escort agency will give up. "
Jin Xiaoxiao closed his eyes and said, "can you tell me what happened?"
Pei dehu picked up the wine jar in his hand and poured a big mouthful into his mouth: "what can't be said? A few days ago, I took a dart..."
It turns out that Pei dehu took a job a few days ago, escorting a white jade Guanyin from Bashu to the capital.
Originally, he didn't want to take over such a long journey, but the silver offered by the other party was considerable, enough for him to take over three jobs on weekdays.
After discussing with the brothers of the escort agency, they took it.
Baiyu Guanyin was transported to the capital early this morning, but when they handed it over to each other, they said Baiyu Guanyin was fake.
The buyer naturally demands that the loss be borne by humen escort agency, but Pei dehu has never opened the box containing Baiyu Guanyin, so he can only compensate the buyer.
Generally, we have to check it first, but when we went to Bashu that day, the seller kept urging him to give it to the buyer according to the specified time.
So I didn't see it. For so many years, Pei dehu had seen all kinds of people. Seeing that the other party was really worried, he didn't care.
"In this case, it is to compensate them. How much silver can a white jade Avalokitesvara be worth." Jin Xiaoxiao said lightly.
Pei dehu put down his wine jar and opened his arms: "that white jade Avalokitesvara is so big. It's worth 1000 liang of silver. Even if it's not enough to compensate the Humen escort agency, how can I compensate it?"
Hearing this, Jin Xiaoxiao was stunned: "what? How valuable is a white jade Avalokitesvara? This... "
She frowned and pondered for a moment: "there must be something strange about the high price offered by the other party at the beginning. Could it be that there was a ghost in the escort agency who dropped the bag with a fake Baiyu Guanyin on the way?"
"It's absolutely impossible. The brothers in the escort agency have been with me for many years. They have all paid their lives. They can't do this kind of thing."
Pei dehu was extremely decisive, but he also noticed something strange: "maybe, at the beginning, when he brought it back from the seller, the box was not really Baiyu Guanyin at all."
Jin Xiaoxiao shook his head: "now we can't make a hasty conclusion. Brother Pei, is the box containing Baiyu Guanyin still in the escort agency? Can you show me? "
"Still there. Let's go. I'll show you."
Pei dehu realized that it was not right, as if just drunk also dissipated a few minutes, with gold small then went to the warehouse.
Jin Xiaoxiao opens the box and looks at the shape of the weeds. It's not like he's been tampered with. With so many people escorting together, someone's hands and feet will never get everyone's attention.
"Brother Pei, you see, as you said, there is no ghost in the escort agency. This box has never been moved. The shape of white jade Guanyin on the weed has been completely preserved, which means that it was a fake at the beginning."
Pei dehu patted his forehead and said with remorse: "I should have thought of it for a long time. I'll go to them for theory. This account can't be counted on my head. I should let him go to the seller."
Then he impulsively went out, but was stopped by Jin Xiaoxiao.
"Brother Pei, don't worry. Maybe it's not that simple. Haven't you ever thought that the buyer and the seller planned this matter, that is to pit your money?"
Pei dehu was slightly stunned, and his brow frowned deeper: "if you say so, this matter will be more complicated. Even if I find it, they won't admit it, and I can't help it."
He suddenly raised his eyes to look at Jin Xiaoxiao, with an eager look on his face, as if Jin Xiaoxiao was her life-saving straw.
"What should we do now? Can't you just watch the escort agency I've worked so hard to run for many years be destroyed in the hands of these two men? "
Jin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath: "don't worry, I'll think about it."
Pei dehu's face was sad, and his eyes were full of depression: "you are a woman, what can you do? I'm really stupid. I can't detect such an obvious fraud."
As he spoke, he slapped himself in the face.
Jin Xiaoxiao grabbed his arm: "don't be like this, brother Pei."
When Pei dehu calmed down, she closed her eyes: "I'm going to find Xiao Nanxian tonight. He must have something to do. If it doesn't help, a thousand taels of silver is not a drop in the bucket for the Xiao family. If you save my life, I will never watch the escort agency destroyed."
That night, the night was completely dark, and Jin Xiaoxiao went to Xiao's house.
The guards at the door gathered in twos and threes to talk. They had more people than they did in the daytime. It seemed that Bai was determined and didn't want Xiao Nanxian to see Jin Xiaoxiao again.
Jin Xiaoxiao avoided the sight of the guard and walked around Xiao's house for a long time, but he couldn't find a place to go over the wall.
At this time, behind came the sound of footsteps, she quickly hid in the corner.
Only two people walk by. They come to a wall that seems to have no door. Jin Xiaoxiao sees a scene that makes her very surprised. There is a secret door on the wall, which is completely invisible.
The two men looked around and walked in slowly.
Jin Xiaoxiao came out of the corner and went to the place where the secret door had just been opened. After careful examination, he found no trace.
Can't you say that this secret door can only be opened from the inside of Xiao's house? She didn't believe it. She carefully found the mechanism.
To be sure, Xiao Nanxian didn't even know about this secret door. If he knew, he would surely tell himself that he didn't have to go over the wall to enter.
On this day, she came to the gate of Xiao's house again. Not surprisingly, Bai sent more people outside Xiao's house. After checking, she went back to humen escort agency disappointed.
