Chapter 132: Catching the Thief
"Okay, then I wish Lord Cheng a safe journey tomorrow, Sun gives you a cup, thank you Lord Cheng for your great help to Sun."
"Where is Lord Sun, this is all as it should be, Cheng did it."
"Anyway, it's a good thing that the ledger hasn't been lost, and even if it's seen, they don't have evidence."
"What Master Sun said is extremely true." Master Cheng responded.
After three rounds of drinking, both of them were drunk.
"Brother Cheng, my grandson has always been the most righteous, you have helped me so much, and when the matter is completed, I will definitely not treat you badly." Sun Zhang said drunkly.
"Lord Sun, I naturally believe in you, we have been preparing for so long, this time it was a hit, and we will celebrate after the transaction is successful."
"Okay."
"Master Cheng continues to drink, let's not get drunk and don't return."
"Lord Sun, I can't drink any more, Cheng will return to the capital tomorrow, please forgive me." Master Cheng squinted his eyes and said.
"Yes, tomorrow you have to go back to the capital, keep an eye on the old emperor for me, keep an eye on it."
"Master Sun." Master Cheng subconsciously covered Sun Zhang's mouth.
"What are you doing to cover my mouth, this is in Yangcheng, in Sun Mansion, don't be afraid, this is my Sun Zhang's world." Sun Zhang staggered to his feet and waved his hand.
"Master Sun, I've drunk too much, Qinglian quickly help Lord Sun go back to the room to rest."
"No, I didn't drink much." Sun Zhang pushed away Qinglian Dao.
"Lord Sun, it's not too early, and I've had a good time today, let's disperse, don't miss the business tomorrow." Master Cheng persuaded a little helplessly.
"Okay, Lord Cheng will have a smooth journey tomorrow, and Sun will not be able to send you off, please forgive me."
"It's okay, it's okay, then I'll go first, Master Sun should rest early." We'll meet again in a few moments. ”
"Okay, Master Cheng is leaving."
"Qinglian, help Lord Sun go back to the house."
"Master Cheng walks slowly, don't send it." Qinglian Road.
"No need, Qinglian, you take me to see off Lord Cheng." Sun Zhang shook his head and said.
"Yes, my lord, Lord Cheng, please."
Qinglian went to see off Lord Cheng, Sun Zhang pushed away the other servants, and staggered to the room by himself, blocking Sun Zhang's way when he passed by the garden.
"You get out of the way, if I don't have it, you're welcome." Sun Zhang pointed to the man's back and scolded.
The man turned around and smiled at Sun Zhang, staring at Sun Zhang's evil charm, "This king will not let you go." Sun Zhang was so frightened that he retreated again and again, "Lord Wang, you ......" and then tripped over the steps, and sat on the ground with his ass, and Qinglian happened to rush over.
"My lord, what's wrong with you, how are you sitting on the ground?"
Sun Zhang tilted his head and pointed to Qinglian and said, "Lord Wang."
Qinglian said that Sun Zhang pointed in the direction and looked over, frowned and said, "My lord, there is no one else there, do you say the prince?"
"Yes, I just saw the prince, and he said he wouldn't let me go." Sun Zhang said with some horror.
"My lord, Qinglian thinks you are mistaken. The prince has long since died. ”
"yes, he's dead, hahaha, hallucination, it must be my hallucination." Sun Zhang shouted loudly.
"Help me up, I'm a little tired." Sun Zhang, who was originally drunk in a daze, suddenly sobered up a lot after being frightened like this.
"Your Excellency, are you alright?"
"It's okay, you should go and rest sooner." Sun Zhang sat on the bed and said.
Qinglian went out lightly and took the door, Sun Zhang due to the reason that he drank a lot of wine today, under the effect of wine, he lay on the pillow and fell asleep deeply, lost the account book in the past few days, he always felt very unsteady in his heart, he had never slept well, and finally had a good sleep tonight, and it didn't take long to remember the deafening snoring. Qinglian knew that Sun Zhang had fallen asleep when she heard the sound, so she went back to rest by herself, Qinglian was also tired enough in the past few days, but fortunately, the account book was not lost.
Early the next morning, Mr. Cheng packed his luggage and prepared to go on the road.
"After leaving, you go and talk to Lord Sun, just say that time is pressing, I won't go to say goodbye to Lord Sun in person, please forgive him." Master Cheng sat in the carriage and lifted the curtain and said.
"Yes, my lord, the slave will go and inform me,"
At this time, Sun Zhang was still asleep in the room. Qinglian stood at the door and hesitated to call Lord Sun up, today I have to go to Lord Siji to discuss the matter of that batch of goods, if Lord Sun goes to sleep again, he will miss the hour, thinking of this, Qinglian knocked on the door, there was no response, Qinglian knocked on the door with great strength, the snoring inside stopped, Qinglian reminded: "Lord Sun, it's me Qinglian, Lord Sun is not early, and today I have to go to discuss the matter of that batch of goods with Lord Siji." As soon as the words fell, Sun Zhang opened the door.
"I've disturbed my lord's rest, and I ask your lord to forgive me." Qinglian lowered her head and said.
"It's okay, it's good that you don't miss the right thing." Sun Zhang waved his hand and said.
"My lord, should we go to Siji-sama now?"
"Go and prepare the carriage, and go now."
"Yes."
"Lord Siji."
"Master Sun is here, please come inside."
"Lord Siji Sun has already thought it through, and today Sun Mou came to tell Lord Siji that the transaction between us continues." Sun Zhang smiled wryly.
"Master Sun, have you figured it out?" Lord Siji said with an eyebrow.
"Figured it out."
"Okay, if there is no accident with Lord Sun's shipment, it will arrive tonight." Lord Siji said calmly.
"What, tonight?"
"Yes."
"So soon, since that's the case, then Sun won't bother again, I'll go and prepare, ready to receive this batch of goods."
"I think Master Sun is also clear about the importance and quantity of this batch of goods, and it is best for Lord Sun to keep an eye on it in person at that time." Mistress Siji reminded.
"Thank you Lord Siji for reminding me, my Sun must personally watch until the end."
"Okay, Master Sun won't send it slowly." Lord Siji said indifferently. Seeing this, Sun Zhang couldn't stay or stay, so he left.
"Qinglian, inform the dock, the goods will arrive tonight, let the other ships stop at the rudder first, and then stop back after the transaction is over, I will go back later tonight and keep an eye on it myself."
"Yes, my lord."
"This batch of goods came a little too quickly, but there is no need to worry about finishing it early." Sun Zhang said to himself, it is true that after today's transaction is completed, it will be completely over, so there is no need to worry about being discovered by others all day long and affecting the progress of the transaction.
"Let's hope this deal goes through." Sun Zhang thought in his heart. Sun Zhang couldn't help but think of it, in the past few days, he has always seen the prince in this Sun Mansion for no reason, although it is an illusion, but it makes Sun Zhang feel very uneasy, as if something is going to happen, Sun Zhang rubbed his temples and is no longer thinking about it, and now he has to keep an eye on the goods in this transaction without any mistakes.
Then Sun Zhang went to his study to deal with some unhandled government affairs that had accumulated over the past few days. Before you know it, it's afternoon.
"Lord Sun, Lord Wang is here." Qinglian reported outside the door.
"Got it." Sun Zhang got up and opened the door when he heard the sound.
"My lord, Lord Wang is waiting for you in the hall." Sun Zhang locked the door and went to the hall, since the last incident, Sun Zhang will not only lock the door, but also specially sent two good soldiers to defend here, not only the study, Sun Zhang's bedroom is also very tightly defended.
"Lord Wang is here."
"Master Sun."
"I've kept Lord Wang waiting."
"It's okay, my lord heard that the shipment will arrive tonight?"
"yes, who did you listen to?" Sun Zhang raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
"That's my lord, I have a batch of goods that also arrived today, but they were docked at the rudder, so I sent someone to ask, and the manager of the dock said that Lord Sun had packed the dock today, and there was something important to do. The old minister guessed it and came over to inquire. ”
"So that's the case, I wanted to wait until the time was almost there, so I just asked you to go to the dock and wait, since you're here now, let's have dinner together and go over together, how about it?"
"That's okay, trouble Lord Sun."
"What's the trouble, it's just a matter of having one more pair of dishes and chopsticks."
"When will Lord Cheng come over?"
"Don't you know, Lord Cheng went back to the capital to stare at the imperial court, and came back when the transaction was over. I'm afraid that there will be some big moves on the side of the court that will affect the transaction. ”
"Ao, I see, I haven't heard Lord Cheng talk about it."
"Maybe I left in a hurry and didn't have time to inform you."
"Maybe."
"My lord, dinner is ready."
"Lord Wang, please."
"Master Sun, let's not drink today, let's make a mistake when drinking, and after the transaction is completed, how about we drink and enjoy ourselves together."
Hearing this, Sun Zhang put down the wine jar in his hand.
"Okay, then let's stop drinking today, eat, Lord Wang eat more."
"Thank you, Lord Sun."
Now Sun Zhang and Lord Wang are happily eating dinner, but they don't know that the biggest danger has quietly come. Someone at the dock was already poised and waiting for them to show up.
"Thank you Lord Sun for your hospitality, and when the transaction is completed, go to my house and exchange me for entertaining Lord Sun and the others."
"Okay, that's a deal."
"Master Sun's time is almost up, we should get over."
"Lord Wang, please, let's go."
Sun Zhang and Lord Wang got into the carriage one after another and rushed to the dock.
"Lord Sun, it's here." Qinglian lifted the curtain for Sun Zhang, and Sun Zhang walked down from it, and for some reason Sun Zhang only felt a little bored and uneasy along the way, and always felt strange today.
By this time it was already dark
"Lord Sun, Lord Wang, please come inside." Said the dock manager.
"When will that shipment arrive?"
"Back to Lord Sun, the ship that went to supervise just now has returned, saying that it has entered the river area of Yangcheng, and it will arrive in less than half an hour, please wait a little longer."
"Okay, you go and get busy with the people who will be unloading later."
"Alright, my lord, you two rest again."
The two of them didn't know that their every move was under someone's watchful eye at the moment.
"Are all the people coming?"
"It's coming, when will it act?"
"Don't rush first, wait and see, and when the ship docks and they unload, you will rush in with someone." Secretly, two people whispered.
"Yes, Wechen understands."
"Lord Sun, after our transaction is completed, is it not the end of the transaction with Jinren?"
"If nothing else, there will be no transaction with the Jinren, according to the current situation."
"I don't have to do anything so risky in the future." Lord Wang said.
"Now is not the time to relax, when this transaction is over, we have to celebrate."
"That's nature."
"Master Sun, the goods are here."
"Let's go, Lord Wang, let's go over and have a look."
"Hurry up and unload, and the movements are sharp." Sun Zhang shouted at the workers. Looking at this batch of goods, Sun Zhang and Lord Wang both showed relieved smiles on their faces.
"Lord Sun, look, the amount of this batch of goods is really not small, if this is a reversal, Lord Sun will definitely make a lot of money." Lord Wang said earnestly.
