Chapter 71
"Can it emit a delicate fragrance, and the fragrance can cover half the street?" Wen Xiuyun was taken aback by the question, her charming big eyes blinking.
"Well, do you have this kind of sachet?"
"Hee hee, Mr. Shen asked the wrong question!"
"Why not?"
"Fragrant fragrance means "light" generally comes from "single fragrance" sachets. There are many types of sachets of this kind of plant, but light means that they won't spread too far. It's fine indoors, but in the street Come on, if you want people within ten feet to smell it, it’s already a high-end sachet, but if you want the fragrance to cover half the street, I’m afraid you’ll need a big incense burner.”
When it came to the end, Wen Xiuyun couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing. She felt that the heroic and a little fierce Shen Zongqi in front of her had such a fun side. A layman.
Shen Hao rubbed his nose, and didn't think these questions were funny. Instead, he paused and continued to ask: "Then what about the "sweet fragrance" sachet mentioned earlier? Can it be done?"
In Shen Hao's opinion, not everyone can distinguish the fragrance type clearly.
"It still doesn't work. Because whether it is "Single Fragrance" or "Sweet Fragrance", there is only one small fragrance capsule, and the farther it wants to spread out, the stronger the fragrance of the capsule itself must be. According to the general banner you According to the saying, there is no sachet that wants to cover half the street, if there is one, it will definitely be so fragrant that it will be pungent and even "smelly"."
Hearing this, Shen Hao understood that he had really taken it for granted before.
However, Shen Hao was still going to try again, so he said, "Thank you, Miss Xiuyun, for helping Shen. However, Shen still has an unfeeling request, and I hope Miss Xiuyun can help."
"Shen Zongqi is too polite, please tell me, what can I do for you, little girl?"
"Could Miss Xiuyun please write me a list of sachets with the smell of "Fragrant Fragrance", I want to buy some and have someone try it for myself."
"Why bother to buy it? I have all kinds of sachets here. I'll ask the servant girl to pack some for you. It's definitely enough for you."
Before Shen Hao could refuse, Wen Xiuyun had already recruited the maid and gave her orders. Shen Hao didn't say the polite words in the end.
After the meal was finished, the matter was finished, and Wen Xiuyun even offered to sing two songs to Shen Hao later. This kind of monotonous entertainment is already a rare enjoyment in this world, and what's more, it's still facing a top-notch beauty.
It's just that the waste of money is really not small.
When she came out of the Jinxiu Pavilion, a maid brought a one-foot-square box, which was half a foot thick. Said that this was something Wen Xiuyun ordered to Shen Hao, and it should be a sachet inside.
While sitting in the carriage, Shen Hao opened the box, and the inside was actually layered, and each layer had many well-sealed small grids, with a total of 30 grids on one layer and four layers in total.
Shen Hao opened one of the grids, and immediately smelled a very soothing fragrance, and there was a small note inside which stated which kind of sachet was sealed in this grid.
"This thing is not bad."
At noon the next day, Shen Hao took the box and found the owner of the breakfast stall who was closing the stall again, that is, Liu Yan's father.
"Come on, come and smell it, are these scents the same ones you smelled when your baby disappeared."
Shen Hao still ordered soy milk and meatloaf as usual, and at the same time asked Liu Yan's father to sit on the side, and opened the grids one by one to smell them.
"Not this one."
"Neither is this."
"Huh? This seems a little bit, no, no."
Liu Yan's father smelled it very carefully. He had already guessed that the guest surnamed Shen might be unusual, and he was helping him. So very cooperative.
Shen Hao didn't make a sound, and watched the other party's expression carefully. It's a pity that after smelling a large box of sachets one by one, they couldn't find the smell at the time of the crime.
The only thing that made Liu Yan's father stay for a while was a sachet, but he shook his head after repeated confirmation.
According to what Wen Xiuyun said before, the 120 kinds of fragrance sachets in this box are the most complete on the market, and some of them are even treasures collected by Wen Xiuyun. It can be ruled out that the fragrance these people smelled at the time of the crime did not come from the sachet.
"Well, brother Shen, are you from the yamen?" Liu Yan's father asked tentatively.
"No. What's the matter?"
"Are you helping me find out about my baby's disappearance?"
"That's right, don't worry, I won't disappoint you again this time, and I must investigate to find out the truth. Alright, let's go." Shen Hao replied with a smile, then picked up the box and got up to leave.
As soon as Shen Hao left, the proprietress of the shop came out and walked behind her man.
"The head of the house, that person is from the yamen, right?"
"He said no." Liu Yan's father didn't look back, with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"Why do people who are not from the yamen worry about our daughter? Hey, what's the matter with you?"
"People who are not from the yamen can investigate our girl's case, and it was only after I put the letter in the copper cabinet that I came here. Do you think it is Xuan, the master of Xuan Qingwei?!"
"Ah! No, isn't it?!"
But he never thought that Liu Yan's father would jump up first as he spoke, and stammered in horror: "I remember where, see, I've seen him!"
"Who is it? You're shocked!"
"East Market, I went to see the decapitation not long ago, that is, he supervised the beheading! He is, it is Hei, Hei, the Chief Banner Officer of the Black Banner Battalion!"
As soon as he returned to the public house, the guard outside the door said that Feilong was coming.
It was still the base of the Black Flag Battalion, and it was still the gloomy torture room with the brazier on.
Even though it was the second time he came here, Feilong still couldn't help the chills down his spine. Even sitting on a chair with his head down, he dared not look at the two shirtless men around him.
I kept cheering myself up: Feilong, don't be afraid, what scene have you never seen? Be tough!
He is a giant in his heart, but his body is very honest, even a normal person would be afraid to go to Xuan Qingwei's torture room.
The door was pushed open, and Shen Hao came in, still sitting opposite Feilong, and said with a smile: "Feilong, how is the investigation going?"
"Mr. Shen, don't worry about my work. But this time I'm really tired. I ran to nine cities in three days, and it cost more than five hundred taels just to invite people to Hualou."
"Want to add money? It's easy to say." Shen Hao signaled, and the guard behind him took out two silver notes with a denomination of one thousand taels and placed them in front of Feilong.
Two thousand taels of silver bills was not a small amount, Fei Long subconsciously licked his lips, the veins on his palms popped up, he wanted to take it but resisted it.
"Hey, Mr. Shen is righteous! This time I went to find a few friends who were in the black market in Jingxi, and I didn't mention you. I made an excuse, saying that I picked up a maze who wanted to buy in large quantities. And customers who are blindfolded magic tools, want to touch the sellers in this area"
