Chapter 16 Twenty Thousand Oceans

What's in the yard?

A thick sycamore tree, a pile of broken bottles and jars, and a blown water tank.

Wait, water tank?

Just as his eyes swept to the water tank, a sudden light of inspiration flashed through Chu Mufeng's mind.

He walked forward quickly, shined the flashlight on the ground and swept a smile on his lips.

Found you!

The most inconspicuous thing in the entire courtyard is the water tank.

You should know that in this era, only one-thirty of the people in the huge city of Peking could afford tap water, and most of the common people still mainly eat well water, so every household has a water tank to store water.

But this is the thing that is most easily overlooked, but now it has become the focus of Chu Mufeng's eyes.

He clearly remembered that although the water tank was blown up during the explosion, no water flowed out.

At this moment, the eyes fell on the ground at the bottom of the water tank, and you could see obvious indentation marks on one side, which were obviously signs of being moved.

There is no water in a water tank and it is often moved. What does this mean?

Of course there is a mystery below!

After moving the water tank, Chu Mufeng picked up the tiles on the ground and inserted them hard on the loose soil.

Bang bang!

Two slight muffled sounds came.

There is indeed something below.

Chu Mufeng no longer hesitated and immediately opened a layer of soil covered with it, revealing a square wooden box with asphalt and square, and there was a mottled and rusty iron ring at the top of the box.

He grabbed the iron ring and pulled it hard, and the box was opened, revealing a brown-red cowhide bag inside.

Chu Mufeng immediately took out his leather bag, wow, it was a bit worthwhile.

When he opened it, he couldn't help but gasp. There were several stacks of brand new US dollars and yellow gold bars.

The denomination of US dollars is 20, and it is estimated that it is about 5,000 or 6,000.

The gold bars are all small yellow croakers, with about twenty.

Of course, the small yellow croaker in the 25th year of the Republic of China was not a gold bar manufactured by the Central Mint in the later period, but was forged by the gold shop now.

One dollar is almost equal to three oceans, and one gold bar is almost equal to thirty oceans.

After all, there are almost 20,000 oceans here.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a huge sum of money.

You should know that these days, you can buy a good courtyard house in Peking for a few hundred oceans, and you can buy a car for a few thousand oceans.

With his understanding of some situations in this era, if Chu Mufeng chooses to leave the police department and use the money to invest in business, he believes that he will soon accumulate a lot of wealth.

However, he is not determined to be here. Moreover, in troubled times, having money may not necessarily have power, and having power will not be short of money!

"Tsk tsk, I know that this Huang has a certain amount of funds in his hands, but I didn't expect that there were so many. It seems that his weight should be quite heavy, but unfortunately he died." Chu Mufeng also sighed secretly.

Actually, he didn't know anything.

Usually, Huang Jianxin cannot say that he has so much money. At best, it would be nice to have a quarter of it.

This money was just sent back the rebellion funds. Before he could spend it, he accidentally exposed his whereabouts and had to choose to commit suicide.

This unintentional thing is naturally cheap. Chu Mufeng came to find out the truth.

He took out all the gold bars and dollars without hesitation and put them in the bag he brought. The bag was put back in its original place, then covered it with soil, and everything returned to its original state.

Keep this pit and maybe you can catch fish.

As long as someone dares to come and look for it, Chu Mufeng will naturally follow the clues and continue to investigate.

Covered by the thick night, Chu Mufeng quietly left the grocery store and returned to Jingyang Hutong where he lived.

...

At the entrance of Beiping Zhonglou Hutong, a pot of spring teahouse.

Just after breakfast, Jiande and Gu Benchang came here.

This is their regular meeting place, and many things that are not suitable for talking in the hall can be communicated here without any concealment.

Gu Benchang never expected that Chu Mufeng not only easily solved the murder case, but also found a spy case, which was praised and rewarded by the hall.

Thinking of this, he felt the position under his butt shaking violently.

His grandmother, if I had known this case myself, I would have handled this case myself, then all this great contribution would be mine!

Frowning, Gu Benchang secretly regretted and felt that he had lost it.

But he never thought that if he did it, would he find out?

Can he come immediately by flattery and photographing, as meticulous as Chu Mufeng, know how to investigate and analyze, and pay attention to the details?

Obviously no answer!

Behind the scenery is more about hard work and hard work!

"Section Chief, tell me, what should we do now? Chu Mufeng has become a popular guy in our first department. I heard that many people call him Detective privately."

"Now not only the first team admire him, but even the brothers from the second and third teams are quite convinced by him." After pouring a cup of tea for Jiande, Gu Benchang asked anxiously.

"What else can I do? Just watch it! This kid's luck is so good!"

Jian De felt very uncomfortable when he thought that Chu Mufeng accidentally solved a spy case through a murder case.

But he couldn't say anything, and he couldn't say anything more!

With Chu Mufeng's influence in a subject now, it would be impossible for Jiande to do any tricks again, otherwise he would definitely suffer.

"Are we just watching this?" Gu Benchang stretched his neck and widened his eyes.

"Of course not!"

Jian De raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't take any injuries, come back quickly. Starting today, you must be your captain, and you can't let that kid show off, do you understand?"

"Yes, yes, I understand!" Gu Benchang nodded repeatedly.

I originally wanted to let Chu Mufeng make a fool of himself, but now it seems that this plan is wrong!

If I continue to pretend to be sick, I guess in a while, the entire team will only know Chu Mufeng, but not Gu Benchang.

"By the way, the Shen family's case cannot be delayed, so hurry up and handle it!" Jian De reminded again.

"Okay, I understand!" Gu Benchang understood it.

...

Peking Police Department, General Affairs Section.

Someone has been worried and uneasy these two days. He is Mr. Huang.

He never dreamed that Huang Jianxin, who asked him for help, turned out to be a spy from the Northeast.

I thought of running for him a few days ago. If it was found out, the nature of this matter would be big or small.

To put it in a small way, that's nothing, and you'll do whatever you should do; but to put it in a big way, if someone insists on slapping it, then at the very least, you will have to be in prison.

What to do? What to do?

Mr. Huang was like an ant roasting on a hot pan, walking back and forth in a panic.

Suddenly, he suddenly stopped and slapped his head and said, "By the way, Chu Mufeng should only know about this. As long as he doesn't say it, it will be fine!"

Gripping his teeth and stomping his feet, he said cruelly: "I can't bear to leave the child and can't trap the wolf. It seems that he can get some blood and make him satisfied!"

Thinking of this, Mr. Huang stopped hesitating, opened the drawer, packed a file bag and hurried out.

...

Criminal Investigation Department, Section 1.

When everyone saw Chu Mufeng who had just returned from outside, they all stood up with conscience, their eyes showed admiration, and they greeted him respectfully.

Easy to solve the unsolved case of the demon cat.

A series of homicide and espionage cases.

And everyone has benefited more or less.

Therefore, Chu Mufeng, who has always been very low-key, showed unquestionable strength in just a few days, won the position and became the focus.

They are all a bunch of old fried dough sticks who know their eyebrows and eyes. No one is stupid and can see the direction of the wind.

Now that I don’t hurry up and follow Chu Mufeng, who is in a position with the Red Top White, it will be too late to wait any longer.

"Captain Chu, I'll treat you to a meal tonight? I wonder if you're free?"

"Captain Chu, I have a movie ticket for Little Orchid here. I heard that you like watching movies, so I will give it to you."

"Captain Chu, this is the alarm form for our first team this month. Please check it out?"

...

Everything you see is smiling, everything you hear is flattering.

Chu Mufeng did not reject their flattery and flattery.

He also knew very well that this was not only because he was able to solve the case, but more importantly because he had a status.

If you don’t become the deputy captain, what if you can solve the case?

It will only be praised, not awe.

So in the final analysis, you still have to be in power. When a man wakes up, he will be in power. Only in this way can he make a difference in the next big wave, rather than go with the flow.

Bang bang bang!

At this time, a rapid and low knock on the door sounded, and Gu Benchang's figure appeared at the door.

With a gloomy eyes swept through the room, he said coldly: "What are you all gathering here for? Why? You're so full that you have nothing to do, right? OK, if you have nothing to do, you'll go out to patrol me!"

Everyone suddenly scattered.

Walking to Chu Mufeng, Gu Benchang looked at the nominal deputy in front of him seriously and said coldly: "Chu Mufeng, now it is working hours, and there should be rules for working at work. You, the deputy captain, have to take the lead."

"oh!"

Chu Mufeng was too lazy to argue with him, so he responded casually and turned back to his desk.

"snort!"

Gu Benchang glanced at Chu Mufeng's back fiercely, flipped through the case information on the table, and then started to call out directly.

After a few people came, he threw the information on the table and said with a stern face.

"I heard that the case of wild ghost knocking on the door has been very serious recently. It is said that our police are all useless and eat food and don't care. You guys come and go and see what's going on."

"Yes, captain!"

After all, Gu Benchang is the captain. Since they are here, they can only obey orders.

Watching Gu Benchang and his group leave, Chu Mufeng looked around with a little confusion and said, "The wild ghost knocks on the door! Why haven't I heard of it?"

"Captain Chu, I know this."

Song Dabao leaned over and pointed out the window and said, "This is indeed very strange."

"The person who reported the case was the Shen family in Nanluoguxiang. Captain, you should know that the Shen family is a big family with a surname in our Beiping City."

It turned out to be the Shen family. It is said that their ancestors had a high official, and the old man in the family was considered a retired person of the Qing Dynasty!

Of course, Chu Mufeng knew it, and he muttered in his heart: No wonder Gu Benchang was so active and came to work.

If it were an ordinary case, he would definitely be dismissive, but since it was the Shen family, it was worth his run.
