Tao Xiushui heard the news that the Tao family was going to the capital to transport goods, so he asked Qingzhu to inquire. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If Master Tao personally delivers the goods, and this person goes and doesn't return for more than a month, what can I do about the silver?

If the court finds out, then their Tao family will immediately face the fate of raiding the house and going to prison, and everything will be over.

Tao Xiushui became more and more afraid of the water, and went back and forth in the hut.

It didn't take long, and Qingzhu trotted back to the house.

Tao Xiushui was anxious, and ran over and said, "How is it?

"Miss, as you expected, the master himself followed"

It's over, I'm really afraid of something.

The Tao family and the person who went to deliver the goods were Master Tao and led more than a dozen small servants in the family.

In fact, if Tao Junjie can do this, he should go.

It's just that this person is not as reliable as before, and he doesn't play cards according to common sense, which makes people feel at ease.

Master Tao still locked up his sister-in-law and didn't let him out, afraid that he would contact the barbarians again, and he knew the severity of that face.

Tao Xiushui saw that this matter was decided, and there was no way, she just wanted to find a chance to meet this father first.

But who would have thought that this person would leave as soon as he said it, and the time was pressing, so he was not free at all.

Later, when she inquired, she learned that it was organized by all the merchants in White City.

Because these people all have shops in the capital, they only met with the shopkeeper in the capital before the Chinese New Year, and now half a year has passed, and I don't know if everything is okay.

I just want to take advantage of the good weather now, I didn't go down, hurry up and deliver the goods and then take a look at the shop in Beijing by the way.

Half a year has passed, and it doesn't matter how the store is doing, it is just the right time to take the opportunity to check the account books.

As soon as they had consulted, they all went in a hurry.

But Tao Xiushui hasn't seen Master Tao since the last time he met Chu Yi, so even if he meets, it's good to leave some information.

Tao Xiushui was in a hurry, so he blocked this person day and night.

But Master Tao doesn't return until midnight every night, and he leaves before dawn, so he can't block it at all.

As a child of others, it is not good for her to talk to her father who has worked hard all day in the middle of the night, just like that, Tao Xiushui only saw him once when Master Tao left, and he didn't even say a word.

Master Tao Yuan made the goods very quickly, and there was not enough goods for half a year, so I didn't think that this smear would be enough to get up early.

Because he took the lead, there was no Li family for this shipment.

And the Li family also secretly avoided it because the Tao family made an appointment to go with them first, so they didn't go.

Tao Yuan was full of pride because the Li family robbed him of a lot of business last time, so this time he was always full of pride until he got on the boat and set off.

Everyone in Tao Mansion didn't go to see each other off, only a few female dependents went to the dock with Tao Second Master and Tao Third Master.

Tao Xiushui begged Mrs. Tao when she went.

In the meantime, she wanted to find Master Tao to say a few words alone, but everyone interrupted and couldn't say it.

Just like that, I watched Master Tao leave on a boat.

……

……

Tao Xiushui returned to the Tao family, and was depressed for a while.

I held it in the house for two days before I came out.

It means that the mastermind is gone, and the demon spirit can't find out his past, but the matter still has to be investigated, and the silver has to continue to be found.

From this day on, Tao Xiushui went to the porcelain kiln to hang out when he had nothing to do.

Ben walked away in clean clothes, and when he came back, his face was covered with black ash, as if he had fallen into a pile of ashes.

When all the ladies of the Tao family heard about this, they all laughed at her behind their backs and asked her to dig out the ashes.

Tao Xiushui didn't care, she still went out early and returned late every day, and she didn't even see Xiao Lan'er a few times.

Time was ticking, and she had to hurry.

In the early morning, the weather was gloomy and rainy, and Tao Xiushui may have been tired and didn't get up.

Qingzhu came over and called the door, "Miss, are you up?"

Tao Xiushui didn't expect this time, sat up and said:

"No, come in!"

Qingzhu stepped into the house and smiled, "Miss, you can really sleep"

Tao Xiushui also thinks so, she has never gotten up late before, she must be too tired.

The two of them had finished cleaning up and eating breakfast before they went out, when they saw Xiao Lan'er coming in from outside the door.

The two haven't seen each other for a few days, Tao Xiushui said with a smile: "Are you afraid that I'll leave in such a hurry?"

Xiao Lan'er changed her usual laughter and said with a serious face: "You still want to leave?"

Tao Xiushui nodded, "I was about to go out! What's wrong with you?"

"What's wrong, you don't know yet?"

Tao Xiushui looked ignorant: "What do you know?"

"Alas, you really don't know, something happened"

"What's the matter?"

"I heard my eldest brother say this morning that something seems to have happened to the ship carrying goods to the capital."

"What, what's wrong" Tao Xiushui was surprised when she heard this.

"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong with people, but there seems to be something wrong with the goods"

"Oh, you scare me, it's okay if people are okay"

Xiao Lan'er sighed, "The people are fine, but the goods seem to be gone"

"Why?"

"It seems to have been hijacked by robbers"

"What, robber?"

Tao Xiushui was taken aback, how many robbers could rob all the goods of the merchants in Baicheng.

"What about them?" she mainly wanted to ask Master Tao, but when she thought that Old Man Xiao was also inside, it was not appropriate to ask only one person.

"My brother said it seems to be in the back, and he will be back in two days"

"Really?" Tao Xiushui was a little happy that she was not kind, she had been looking forward to Master Tao coming back!

"Did you report it to the government?"

Xiao Lan'er's face was not good-looking, "I reported it, but it doesn't seem to be of much use"

"How so?

"Why, I heard my brother say that these people only went to the boat to look around and left, and they didn't even ask how much of the goods were lost"

"Really?" Tao Xiushui didn't have anything to say about this.

The government is like that, it is used by powerful people.

"Alas, it's really annoying, I finally got a year's worth of goods, and it's all gone."

Xiao Lan'er is really angry, born as a businessman, and has been very sensitive to goods since she was a child.

Tao Xiushui didn't feel anything, and he didn't care too much about business.

She only cares about the silver, if she can't find the silver, the Tao family is doomed, let alone herself.

Two days later, all the merchants in Baicheng came back alone.

There were injuries on their bodies, but the expressions on their faces were as if they were seriously ill.

Tao Xiushui didn't know how many ships were shipped by the merchants in Baicheng before, but later he learned that Gu Ran was a large number, a total of one hundred and eight ships, and the goods of thirteen families, all of which were robbed by bandits.

The Tao family's goods themselves have more than ten ships, although the Xiao family is less than the Tao family, because the cloth covers a relatively small area, so there are two fewer ships of goods, but that's it, the loss of the two families is immeasurable astronomical.

This time the goods are several times more than the usual goods, this is a year of goods that the merchants of Baicheng have spent a lot of effort to get up early in the dark.

Just to be transported to the capital in the summer to be able to sell at a good price, I didn't expect that now Gu Ran has been lost and robbed by thieves, who do you say can not be angry.

When Tao Xiushui saw Master Tao, he saw that this person's face turned blue and lost his former look.
