His attitude made Sun Dongjia stunned, because he had never seen Bantou Huang like this. But Captain Huang ignored him, turned around and waved to the people around him and said: "Everyone spread out, walk around the front and back streets to see if there are any clues? Then ask the neighbors if they have heard anything. , what did you see?"
The people below agreed and dispersed, while Team Leader Huang led one person around the warehouse. This warehouse is built in the backyard, and the back wall of the warehouse is the backyard wall. When he turned back to the main entrance of the warehouse and saw that half of the tiles were removed from the roof of the warehouse, he knew how these people had done it.
It must have been that while the guys were eating in front, someone climbed directly onto the roof from the back alley, then took off the tiles and threw them into the warehouse. Most of the warehouse is filled with soft salt packets, and only a small part is fine salt packed in jars.
As long as they threw tiles on the salt bags, they would make no sound at all. After the tiles were lifted, the companions in the back street sprinkled water on the roof with water hoses. That water dragon is so powerful that it can spray water several feet away, let alone such a low warehouse roof!
Sure enough, not long after, the guards came back with their helpers, all talking about what they had heard. It turned out to be exactly what Huang Bantou had guessed.
Bantou Huang said: "Do you know where the water dragon came from?"
A police officer said: "I know this. It is an abandoned water dragon truck from the fire brigade. It was thrown outside the city a few days ago. But somehow it was picked up and repaired!"
Squad leader Huang asked: "Have you asked the people in the back alley? Have you ever seen the thief?"
Another officer said: "I've already asked them all. There are ordinary people living in the back alley, and there is no one else. It's time for dinner, so they don't even know that anyone has been in the back alley."
Bantou Huang knew in his heart that such a big noise when the water dragon was operating would inevitably attract people to come out and watch. It was just that these people were threatened and refused to tell the truth.
But he didn't pursue it and asked some other questions, which were answered by the guards. In the end, Team Leader Huang came to the conclusion that the thief was cunning and there were no clues!
By the time Team Leader Huang made his conclusion, it was already dark. He said to Sun Dongjia: "Sun Dongjia, our county government will investigate this matter seriously. If there is any news, we will send someone to inform you. But I would like to remind Sun Dongjia, have you offended anyone recently?"
Dongjia Sun stared with blood-red eyes and said, "Why do you say that?"
Bantou Huang said: "I looked inside the warehouse and the thieves didn't take away any salt packets at all. It shows that they are not looking for money. If they were looking for money, a few salt packets taken directly from the roof would be worth dozens of taels of silver." Yes! But they poured the water in without hesitation. It can be seen that if they are not seeking wealth, then they have a grudge!"
Boss Sun's eyes flickered, and he turned back to ask the shopkeeper: "Have you offended anyone recently?"
Squad leader Huang and the surrounding police officers looked at each other and felt gloating about his misfortune! After all, these people are usually very arrogant towards them, but today they are especially angry when they see their misfortune! Especially since they knew who was behind it, but they couldn't tell yet, which made them feel itchy! However, in order not to cause trouble, Team Leader Huang ignored Dong Sun’s questioning of the shopkeeper. He just greeted his elder brother and left!
————————————————————————————
Father Liu and Liu Haojia were exhausted from welcoming groups of guests in front of the gate! Because there are so many guests here today! Especially for distinguished guests, many people even came uninvited, resulting in not even enough banquets being prepared! Fortunately, I was well prepared in advance so I didn't make a joke!
Moreover, many powerful officials sent gifts. Even Liu Shouyou sent a close servant to send a nice and generous gift. It can be seen that the Liu Hao family's status as a popular figure in the eyes of Emperor Wanli is confirmed!
Officialdom is all about following people's influence. Now everyone knows that Liu Haojia is a popular figure in front of Emperor Wanli. He is involved in many things. As long as no big mistakes are made in the future, he will be extremely powerful! So naturally I have to curry favor!
Those elders are too embarrassed to go out in person, but don’t they have nephews at home? By sending them out and taking advantage of someone’s happy event to give a generous gift, the Liu family owes a favor. When they return it in the future, the two families will People naturally move around. As time goes by, friendship develops.
And maybe young people may have a common language together, and if they can talk together and become good friends in the future, the chances of borrowing help from the family will naturally be much greater. Therefore, many of the guests who came today did not come in person. Instead, they were sent by their nephews and nephews, intending to establish friendship with the Liu family! Anyway, Liu Haonian will be a member of the noble circle sooner or later in the future, so there are especially many young people here today!
Those who were able to do it in person brought their nephews to the banquet with the same intention. Anyway, everyone has the same status and has been in this circle sooner or later, so there is no harm in getting in touch with them in advance!
Father Liu looked at the sky and felt that the time had come. Then I saw that the alley had quieted down, probably no guests had arrived. Then he pulled Liu Haojia into the courtyard gate.
As soon as the two of them showed up, the banquet officially began. At this time, the cold dishes were all placed on the table. Following Father Liu’s order, the hot dishes were served like water!
Today, the Liu family has done their best. Not only did they arrange for four chefs from Shiweizhai, they also specially invited six master chefs from other restaurants! All kinds of drinks are available in unlimited quantities! So the guests who came were very satisfied with the food and wine on the table!
As for Liu's father and others, they had no time to eat. Liu's father forced himself to build relationships with important people at each table, and he also had to accompany the guests at the main table. Liu Haojia and other groomsmen protected Liu Haonian as he went around the table to toast.
Most of the people here today are members of your noble family. Although they have lived in wealth for several generations and have long since lost their careless atmosphere, they still like to drink large glasses of wine at the wine table. Therefore, their responsibilities are very heavy. If there is any negligence, Liu Haonian may not be able to enter the bridal chamber today!
With the appearance of the groom and groomsmen, the atmosphere of the banquet slowly reached a climax! Especially after the wine is drunk, each family will always brag about the achievements of their ancestors, and there will inevitably be times when they compare with each other. This leads to the occasional red-faced argument! But then after a bowl of wine, the two of them reconciled again!
