At dusk, Zhang Lei appeared in the southernmost warehouse of the East City, Guo Song's 100 personal soldiers have gathered in the warehouse, the warehouse is neatly placed hundreds of large wooden boxes, the length and width of the large wooden boxes are five feet each, and each large box is tightly stacked with four small wooden boxes, the small wooden boxes are mainly convenient for camel consignment.

Most of the chests were gold and silver, which was converted into nearly a million yuan, in addition to the treasures that Guo Song stored in the Treasure Pavilion and the most valuable treasures in the Treasure Pavilion warehouse.

Even the white jade screen in Guo Songyuan's house was tied up and sent away.

In order to transfer as quickly as possible, Zhang Lei also built fifteen very sturdy wooden wheel trailers, which can push large wooden boxes weighing more than 1,000 catties directly into the cargo hold of large ships.

The sun had already set, the sky was getting darker, and the bell for the closure of the East Market was ringing, all shops were to close, and customers were to leave as soon as possible, and the shops began to close their doors.

The Treasure Pavilion was closed at noon, and the shopkeeper Yang and his wife had already left Chang'an in a carriage and went to his hometown in Puzhou, Hedong to hide, he was the only person who knew about it, and the exchange of gold and silver was basically operated by him, and only he knew how much gold and silver Zhang Lei had exchanged.

Yang Da's shopkeeper must be hidden, everyone thinks he is from Chang'an, even if Dong Zhenglei doesn't know where his hometown is? Once he leaves Chang'an, trying to find him again is almost a needle in a haystack.

Night finally fell, when a soldier came running and said, "The gate is closed, and there are no pedestrians in sight on Dongshi Street." ”

There are no pedestrians even on Dongshi Street, let alone this remote corner of theirs.

Zhang Lei nodded, and said to everyone in a deep voice: "Let's start!" ”

Hundreds of soldiers acted together, each big box was tied with thick ropes, two long wooden sticks were inserted into the rope in a cross shape, eight strong soldiers worked together to slowly lift a large box weighing more than 1,000 catties, put it on the trailer, several soldiers pulled forward and pushed back, dragged the trailer out of the door, and went to the dock behind.

The hundred soldiers were busy and orderly, the wide planks had been set up on the docks, and the trailers were pushed directly onto the boat, while the boatmen sat on the side to rest, and each of them took thirty pieces of money, and consciously kept their mouths shut, and there were things that they should not ask, and they should not have intervened to help, and they did not know anything.

"Slow down! Slow down!"

The trailer carefully advanced the hold from the slope, and seven or eight soldiers steadied the trailer with all their hands and feet, allowing it to slide down slowly, and one ship could fit twenty large boxes, and then another.

Zhang Lei stood on the dock, his expression was a little nervous, every moment of tonight, he was shrouded in great danger, once it was caught, not only would his family be bankrupt, but his life could not be saved.

He took a long pole and probed into the river, the water had thawed, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, five days ago, there was a thin layer of ice floe on the surface of the river, and now it is no longer visible.

At this time, a soldier pointed ahead and said, "Proprietor Zhang, there is a small boat in front!" ”

Zhang Lei was shocked, and hurriedly took a closer look, from a distance, only saw the outline of a boat, and couldn't see the people on it clearly, looking at the appearance of the boat, it shouldn't look like a patrol sentry boat, and after a while, the boat approached them, and someone asked: "May I ask if Zhang Dongzhu is not there?" ”

Zhang Lei hurriedly stepped forward, "I am!" ”

The people on the boat hugged their fists and said: "I was sent by Dugu Gongzi, and Gongzi asked Zhang when he would be okay?" ”

"Where's your son-in-law?"

The person on the boat pointed to the distance, "Just under the Baohong Bridge in front, twenty ships are waiting." ”

Of course, Zhang Lei knew about Baohongqiao, just ten miles ahead, where the Cao River diverged, one way to the West City, and the other to the East City, he hurriedly said: "Please tell your son-in-law, we have half an hour at most." ”

"I'll go back and report it!"

The boat turned back, the soldiers quickened their speed, and in less than half an hour all the large wooden boxes were loaded onto the ship, the boatmen put away the planks, and the fleet set sail slowly to the south.

After a while, the fleet came to the foot of the Baohong Bridge, and a fleet of twenty cargo ships with the same thousand stones was already waiting here, this is the fleet of the Dugu family, which has been moored in Xishi, the ships are full of cloth, and they go to Longyou, and then come back to load grain at the manor in Yongxian.

The fleet is guarded by Dugu Qian, and he is also responsible for solving various checkpoints along the way.

Zhang Lei's five large ships blended into Dugufu's fleet, and this large fleet began to set off, heading for Qujiangchi outside the city........

At noon the next day, a hall master hurried to the Hidden Sword Pavilion, and as soon as he entered the door, he said to Li Man: "Qiyu Pavilion Master, I have found three big gold and silver exchangers!" ”

Li Man snorted coldly, "I don't want to know who I found, I just want to know when the gold and silver from the Hidden Sword Pavilion will be returned?" ”

The hall master looked puzzled: "They said that the gold and silver have been exchanged, and they are willing to spit out 20% of the profits, but the gold and silver ...... I can't catch it back. ”

"Fuck your shit!"

Li Man scolded: "Do all the people in the Hidden Sword Pavilion eat? If there is any gold and silver that cannot be recovered, who have they changed it to, make a list. ”

"There was no list, so I changed it to one, and it was replaced by the East City Treasure Pavilion."

"Send the brothers to the Treasure Pavilion of the East Market at once, and if they don't return the gold and silver, they will seal their shop!"

"Obey the order!"

The hall master turned around and was just about to leave, when Li Man suddenly thought of something, and immediately shouted, "Wait a minute!" ”

The hall master was so frightened that he stopped, and Li Man suddenly woke up, isn't the Treasure Pavilion Guo Song's shop in the capital?

Her brows furrowed, the three thousand taels of gold and thirty thousand taels of silver in the Hidden Sword Pavilion were all exchanged for the Treasure Pavilion, sixty thousand yuan! Guo Song, what do you want to do?

"Have you found out why the price of gold and silver has risen so sharply?"

"In recent months, some people have exchanged a large amount of gold and silver on the black market, causing the price to soar, but who is exchanging, everyone doesn't know, this is the rule of the black market, don't ask where the other party comes from, it's just because of the exchange of our gold and silver, they keep an eye on it."

Li Man had a strong premonition in her heart, Guo Song not only exchanged her own gold and silver, but also exchanged other people's gold and silver, she must find out about this matter, how much gold and silver did Guo Song exchange?

Li Man immediately divided the troops into two ways, Ling Ying Caihe led dozens of people to the Treasure Pavilion, she personally led a group of warriors to the Meishou Wine Shop in Xishi, she issued an order to arrest Zhang Lei, Guo Song could not run to Chang'an in person, it must be Zhang Lei exchanging gold and silver for him.

..........

Meishou wine shop is not the same today as before, although the people who buy wine are still in a long line, but the shopkeeper and the guys are very hard, the efficiency of selling wine is very high, the four stores of the wine store are busy, the feet do not stop, today there is a new proprietor to join, and it is the Dugu family, early in the morning, the chief steward sent by the Dugu family announced that everyone has increased their salaries by 20%, of course everyone is very hard.

Today, there are still Dugu Qiu's brothers in the store, the general of Youtun Wei and Dugu Changqiu, the prince of Xingyang County, who is in charge, just to deal with the Tibetan Sword Pavilion coming to find trouble.

As for the Treasure Pavilion, Guo Song did not transfer it to the Dugu family, he specially instructed Zhang Lei to dig a big pit for the Hidden Sword Pavilion, and waited for Li Man to step into it.

Dugu Changqiu sat in the shop and tasted wine, he was also more greedy for the things in the cup, and the shopkeeper gave him a jar of high-quality grape tribute wine, and he was satisfied with it.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside, and then the sound of the wine jar being smashed was heard, and a guy crawled in with a rolling belt, "Dugu Jungong, go and take a look!" The people of the Sword Hidden Pavilion were making trouble outside. ”

And they came! Dugu Changqiu got up angrily and strode out.

I saw nearly a hundred black-clothed warriors standing outside, and the chief steward went to visit the customer, not in the store, several guys at the door were knocked over the ground, several large wine tanks were smashed, and the wine flowed all over the ground.

A samurai leader was tugging at the shopkeeper's shirt and said viciously: "Within half an hour, your proprietor hasn't come out yet, and Lao Tzu will smash your Meishou wine shop to pieces today!" ”

Dugu Changqiu was furious, walked out and said coldly: "It won't take half an hour, the old man is here now!" ”

The samurai leader didn't know Dugu Changqiu, threw away the shopkeeper, and the splitter was about to catch Dugu Changqiu, and suddenly someone shouted behind him: "Wait!" ”

Li Man appeared in time, but she knew Dugu Changqiu, and hurriedly called out to the hall master.

The hall master was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly withdrew his hand and retreated.
