This sentence was by no means a compliment from Su Shi. In his opinion, Qin Nan was undoubtedly a very smart person. Su Shi found that apart from being more experienced and knowledgeable than her, Su Shi may not be as smart as her.

Su Shi suddenly thought of something. This matter had been pending for a while, and he had no idea and limited energy, so he wanted to leave it to Qin Nan to solve it.

So he looked at Qin Nan and said: "The Qin Mansion has been in the rice and grain business for a long time and has extremely rich experience, so you can leave many things to your subordinates and just control the overall situation yourself. Don't be too tired."

Qin Nan suddenly heard Su Shi's words of concern, and suddenly felt a warmth flow through his heart, and a blush appeared on his cheeks involuntarily.

In order to cover up her embarrassment, she lowered her head slightly, and then couldn't help but laugh softly: "Although my family has been in the rice and grain business for a long time, this is the first time that I have done this kind of loss-making business. Therefore, the people below are quite concerned about this. If there are complaints, if we don’t go on patrol, I’m worried that they will disobey orders.”

"You don't have to worry about that." Su Shi said with a smile: "The tutors in wealthy families are very strict. Although they don't understand, they don't go against it. If you are still worried, just send someone close to you to inspect. You don’t have to do it yourself.”

Then he said seriously: "The reason why I asked you to let go of the grain store business is because I have an important matter that I want you to take over and investigate."

Speaking of this, Su Shi couldn't help but sigh: "I know there is fraud in this matter, but I don't have any clue. During this period, I have many things to do and I don't know how to do it, so I want to do this." here you are."

Qin Nan heard that the matter Su Shi asked her to investigate was not only important, but even Su Shi had no clue. The matter must be extremely difficult, but her face showed an eagerness to try without hesitation.

"What do you want me to check?"

"Bai Jiangchuan."

"Bai Jiangchuan?" Qin Nan was confused at first, but then understood: "Do you suspect that he has other intentions?"

Su Shi pondered: "Given the grudge between Bai Jiangchuan and King Qi, it is understandable that he has revenge and wants to destroy the Dongyuan Library, but his subsequent behavior has to be suspicious."

Qin Nan's eyes were full of doubts: "Bai Jiangchuan was originally an ignorant and incompetent person. He was so arrogant and domineering only because he was favored by King Qi. But now he has turned against him. Do you think there is really no problem?"

Hearing Qin Nan's question, Su Shi showed a slightly embarrassed look on his face because he did not explain to Qin Nan the relationship between King Qi and Bai Jiangchuan. Although Zhou Xuan knew about it, he was too shy to mention it, so Qin Nan had this It is normal to have questions.

But if she didn't explain it clearly to her at this time, this doubt would linger in her mind, which would affect her judgment, because Su Shi had to say vaguely: "The relationship between King Qi and Bai Jiangchuan is very special, but it also affects her judgment." It was not what he wanted, so his heart was filled with resentment.”

Qin Nan was so smart that he immediately understood what Su Shi meant. His face turned red, and then he couldn't help but glare at him, as if complaining about why he told her such a dirty thing.

After a long time, Qin Nan stabilized his mind and said, "The suspicious behavior you are talking about means that Bai Jiangchuan took the initiative to ask you to meet after the Dongyuan Quality Library incident, and wanted to join you in exchange for a chance to survive?"

"Yes, Bai Jiangchuan is well aware of the grievances between me and him, and he should also understand that even if he helped me secretly, the chance of me letting him go is very small, but he still asked me to meet him, and even wanted to take refuge. This has to be It’s puzzling.”

Qin Nan suddenly smiled: "It seems that this Bai Jiangchuan is not an ignorant person. He at least understands people's hearts."

Su Shi was slightly startled: "Why do you think so?"

"Because he at least knows that you want to know why Pei Xuan did this more than you and him."

Su Shi's expression changed, and he thought deeply: "In this way, Bai Jiangchuan should know everything about what happened between me and Pei Xun, otherwise he would not take the risk to see me, and he knew that as long as he mentioned Pei Xun, I would be at least temporarily I won’t touch him.”

"But where did he learn about this?"

Qin Nan suddenly asked: "Why did you arrange Bai Jiangchuan in the house rented by Feng Ke?"

Su Shi said: "There must be something fishy in that house if Feng Ke refuses to rent it. I let Bai Jiangchuan continue to live there. First, I wanted to see if Feng Ke would come to him as Bai Jiangchuan said. Second, I am a magpie's nest, mainly anti-customer, and want to see how the other party will react."

"How is the result?"

Su Shi shook his head: "According to reports, no unusual movements have been found in the past ten days. No one has come to Bai Jiangchuan, and the house seems to have been abandoned by the other party."

"Where's Bai Jiangchuan?"

Su Shi sighed: "Bai Jiangchuan is like a girl hiding in a boudoir. Not only does she not go out on the street, she rarely even leaves her room."

Hearing Su Shi's nondescript metaphor, Qin Nan couldn't help but glare at him again, but then felt extremely confused: "How can a person like him endure such loneliness? Aren't you surprised that he is in the room?" do what?"

Su Shi smiled bitterly and said: "The current Bai Jiangchuan is simply more ascetic than the old nun in the nunnery. Every day he is either sleeping, reading, writing, or admiring the scenery. Other than that, there is nothing unusual."

Hearing this, even Qin Nan looked very surprised: "Did Bai Jiangchuan change his temper and prepare to calm down and study for the No. 1 Scholar exam?"

"I also want to know what kind of medicine he is selling in his gourd, but I am currently too busy to take care of him."

"So you haven't seen him since that night?"

Su Shi sighed slightly: "I knew that Bai Jiangchuan had something to hide when he came to me, so I wanted to let him go for a while and let him take the initiative to come to me and tell the truth. But now it seems that my strategy is not working."

Qin Nan suddenly showed a narrow smile: "So now you want me to track down Bai Jiangchuan and find out his true purpose?"

Su Shi's expression gradually became serious, and he said to Qin Nan seriously: "I have always believed that if anyone or anything does not conform to common sense, there must be an ulterior secret hidden behind it."

"Although I don't want to dig out other people's secrets, the opponent we face now is very powerful. Even though Pei Xun is dead, his plan is still being executed. So we need to be careful every step we take. And in my feeling , Bai Jiangchuan seems to be a very important chess piece in the eyes of the opponent, so it is also very important for us to find out his true purpose."

Qin Nan didn't expect that he valued Bai Jiangchuan so much, and she felt some pressure for a moment. But even so, she still looked at Su Shi firmly and said softly: "Don't worry."
