I make a living solving crimes.

After Yang Min finished adding powder to Chang Wei and left, Chang Long regained his energy and approached Chang Wei and whispered, "Brother, do you have the Golden Money Sword?"

"What do you want this for?"

"I suspect that I am not studying well. It's not that I don't like studying, but that there are little ghosts bothering me and I want to catch ghosts." Chang Long said as a matter of course.

Chang Wei knocked her on the head and glared at her, saying, "Don't talk nonsense at the end of the year. If your mother hears you, you will definitely be beaten."

Chang Long was not afraid of Chang Wei. She stayed close to Chang Wei and whispered, "These are all taught to me by Grandpa Zhang. He said that when things don't go well, it means that there are villains who are against me and little ghosts are bothering me. He gave me a few books to study, but I couldn't understand them. They were all ghostly talismans."

Chang Wei laughed and said, "Don't say you can't understand it. I can't understand it either. You need to read a lot of books to understand those ancient Taoist books. Don't even think about it."

"Grandpa Zhang was so pitiful when he was young. Fortunately, I didn't want to be a Taoist priest." Chang Long sympathized with old man Zhang for two seconds, and then started to talk again, "Grandpa Zhang still has a lot of copper coins. They are strung together, and the words on them are different. Brother, why did the ancients use copper coins?"

"Because in ancient times, paper was more expensive than copper coins, and the cost of printing was very high."

Chang Long probably didn't understand, and she didn't really want to ask. All she could think about in her little head were her own doubts.

"Brother, how did the ancients make copper coins? Why did they print different characters on them? Grandpa Zhang said it was because the emperor changed. Does that mean they have to print new coins every time an emperor changes? Brother, how many emperors were there in ancient times?"

"There are probably more than 400 clearly recorded ones."

"Wow, so much? Does that mean every emperor has his own money? It would be amazing if I could find all this money!"

Chang Wei used to think that Chang Long was interested in Taoism, but gradually he felt something was wrong, as all she kept muttering was money.

Perhaps because she has been saving coins since she was a child, she seems to have a special liking for copper coins.

He turned his head to look at the little girl who was twisting and turning beside him and refused to sit still, and asked seriously: "Do you really like it?"

"Yes, I was lying in bed last night and thinking that the copper coins I touched must have been touched by a child a long, long time ago. Brother, think about it, I touched the same coins as the child hundreds of years ago. Isn't it amazing?"

Chang Da sneered at the side and said, "The stone at the entrance of our hometown village is thousands of years old. I have sat on it before. Maybe your great-great-great-great-great-ancestor has also sat on it. Don't you think it's magical?"

Chang Long froze for a moment and snorted, "That's not something a human could make... I can't explain it to you clearly, only my eldest brother understands."

Chang Wei knew what Chang Long meant, but she was only seven years old and couldn't say things like "the bright moon shines on the past and present."

He asked again seriously: "Do you really like old things?"

"Yes, I like them all except mother."

Chang Wei looked outside the door and didn't see Yang Min. He was glad that Chang Long had escaped.

He thought for a moment and said, "If you like these things, you have to study hard. You should study hard first, and I will find a master to teach you when I come back from Sichuan Province."

"Teach what?"

"Since you like it, don't you want to know which emperor made this coin, how many years ago it was made, and what the words on it mean?"

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then her eyes suddenly lit up, "Brother, what you said seems to be interesting."

She was very happy. She moved her buttocks back on the bench and smiled at Chang Wei, saying, "Brother, it's settled then."

Chang Wei nodded to show his agreement.

He really didn't expect that his sister would suddenly fall in love with ancient bronze coins.

That's great. Children are always curious about the world and have hobbies. As an older brother, you must support them.

Anyway, it’s not difficult to collect ancient bronze coins nowadays. Maybe this girl will become a collector in a few decades and will be able to live a worry-free life without relying on herself.

......

"Team leader, Liu Hui has given instructions."

As soon as I sat down in the office, Du Ye came in with a smile on his face to report.

Chang Wei was making tea for himself. He was not too surprised when he heard it. He threw the cigarette at hand over and asked, "What's going on?"

"They used to eat steamboats. They are not ordinary thieves. They are experts in train robbery."

Chang Wei thought of that famous ballad.

The sun is about to set in the west

Quiet on Weishan Lake

play my beloved earthen lute

sing that touching song

climb on the fast train

like a galloping horse

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, not only the Railway Guerrillas would hijack the Japanese trains, but also heroes from all over the country would do so.

There are all kinds of people here, some are civilian anti-Japanese organizations, and some are bandits.

"After liberation, we cracked down on this kind of robbery. We shot them with guns after we caught them. So they started stealing in train compartments. Later, you cracked down on them several times and they all closed down. Life was a bit difficult. This time, they resumed their old business because they were asked to do so."

Du Ye took the cigarette Chang Wei threw to him, lit one for himself, and gently put the rest back on the table. He continued, "The man who invited him took two turns, and Ao Wen went to catch the middleman."

Chang Wei nodded and said, "If it's difficult to arrest him, you can ask the police station to cooperate with you."

"It's the end of the year, and everyone has been busy all year. I'm afraid they won't be willing to do that."

"As long as there is a case, especially a big case, they will definitely be willing to do it. Don't bother Uncle Xie and Aunt Zhu with this kind of thing. Just find the little policeman. I guarantee they will act as soon as you call them."

Du Ye had never worked in a collective. After joining the Dragon Team, he became the team leader inexplicably. He didn't understand the thoughts of the grassroots police officers. After hearing what Chang Wei said, he thought for a moment and nodded.

"Learn how to use people, so that you can relax." Chang Wei looked at Du Ye's red eyes, thinking that he had not slept well for the past two nights, and gave him a few words of advice, "As a cadre, you can't always be the first to rush to the front. You must fully trust your comrades... and give them opportunities to make contributions."

This time Du Ye understood and said seriously, "I understand, Team Leader."

Chang Wei motioned him to get busy, and explained before he left, "I won't be home on Sunday. I have to go to Fan's house to discuss some important matters. Don't mind."

Du Ye stopped and then remembered that Chang Wei was talking about proposing marriage on Sunday. He hesitated, not knowing how to respond. When Chang Wei waved his hand, he hurriedly ran away.

It is easier to arrest people at the end of the year, as people with or without money will all want to go home for the New Year. The police station also has some fugitive criminals to arrest, but when Du Ye came for help, they heard that there might be spies involved, and the young policemen were very proactive.

Chang Wei didn't ask about these things and just sat in the office doing nothing.

He decided to spend the rest of the year before packing his bags and go to Sichuan Province to have a good...meal.

Sichuan Province is famous for its rabbits.

We can still eat good food in the first half of this year, but by next year, we won’t be able to fill our stomachs with meat or even rice.

As it turned out, good things took time, and perhaps God also treated him like a donkey.

Just when he was about to take a nap on the sofa, Li Laifu knocked on the door and said, "Team leader, Deputy Director Li from the steel mill came to visit us and brought two pigs with him."
