About This Novel

As for the golden gourd placed next to the pillow of Cixi's coffin, it was rumored that businessmen from Japan's Luming Society were prepared to buy this rare thing at a high price. Fulai Inn is an inn on the main traffic road in Wuqing County. The shopkeeper Jiang Fu has been running it for many years. However, Jiang Fu, who seems to be honest in appearance, actually uses Fulai Inn as a gathering place for black market transactions. Recently, he received two secret letters. One was sent to him by Ken Ito, a businessman of Luming Society, hoping that he would find the whereabouts of the golden gourd and was willing to pay 30,000 silver dollars to buy it. The other letter was an anonymous letter. The writer claimed that he had a golden gourd in his hand and was willing to sell it to Jiang Fu for 10,000 silver dollars. With good things coming from heaven, Jiang Fu was naturally gearing up and hurriedly informed Ito Ken of the matter. In recent days, the weather has been gloomy, with frequent heavy rains, and seven or eight people have stayed in the inn one after another. And yesterday was the day agreed in the mysterious man's letter. However, Jiang Fu waited until midnight and saw no one looking for him to ship. Today, when the residents of the inn went downstairs to prepare for dinner, they found that Jiang Fu was dead and his body was sitting on the Taishi chair at the counter. Who killed Jiang Fu? Where is the golden gourd? The plot will unfold in this inn.
