Chapter 157: The Treasury

Every day he sat in the temple and looked at these golden swords, he felt deeply comfortable, and there was nothing in this world more pleasing to the eye than the golden things.

Today was the day of recess of the Imperial Privy Council, and Rob was sitting in the temple early in the morning, flipping through the books of accounts. Suddenly, someone outside the hall laughed loudly:

"Rob, are you counting the money again?"

Rob looked at it, it turned out to be gentle, and got down to greet him with a smile on his face.

"Second Wen, this is here to count the money with me?"

Blinked gently, and said with a smile: "I'm not here to count the money, I'm here to check the accounts." ”

After speaking, he pointed to Steward Lin beside him.

When Rob saw Steward Lin, he smiled more and more affectionately, and greeted: "It's easy to say, it's because I haven't checked the accounts for Lao Lin for some days." ”

Steward Lin's face was expressionless, just a slight nod, neither like arrogance nor humility.

"You two sit down for a while," said Rob, and said in a loud voice, "all those who are in the palace, go down." ”

When the servants had all retreated, Rob took out two black ribbons from his arms and handed them over with a smile: "Come on, old rules." ”

Wen Wen and Steward Lin took the ribbon and tied a knot at the back of his head blindfolded his eyes familiarly.

"Rober, I said that you are also doing this too much, not to mention that I am too old to see things clearly, this ribbon is also worn in vain."

It wasn't until the two of them tied the ribbons that they walked to the left side of the hall, took one of the golden knives and turned around for half a circle, and replied, "It doesn't matter, if I want Rob to take care of the gold for you, then you have to follow my rules." ”

As he spoke, he ran to the right side of the hall again, changed a golden knife and began to spin in circles.

Gentle sneer: "Rob'er, it's okay if you blindfold me, but if Steward Lin has such a skill, if he wants to peek at you, you can't hide it." ”

In the blink of an eye, Rob had already spun four golden knives, and ran back to the left side of the hall to spin the fifth stalk.

"Even if he can see it, it's useless, he should spin a few knives, which knife to spin first, and I will change in a few days."

As soon as the words fell, the ground in the hall rumbled, and I saw that the floor tiles slowly sank, and a ramp appeared.

"Hey, why are you giving yourself all the trouble? If you turn around and remember the mistakes, won't you be able to get in? ”

"Remember? Hehe, if I remember it, it won't be Robe. Alright, take it off. ”

Wen Wen and Steward Lin took off the blindfolded ribbon according to their words, and the underground passage was already in front of them, and then looked around, the twenty-four golden knives had been restored to their original positions, and they couldn't see any clues.

Robelle walked ahead and led the two into the tunnel.

The left and right sides of the tunnel are inlaid with feldspar strips made of Yinghua stone, emitting a faint milky white light, and scattered broken gold nuggets can be seen from time to time along the road, hiding in the corners of the wall, occasionally reflecting a few traces of luster.

"Robuel, they all say that your gold is hidden in your own territory, but this small vault in Shakoye's capital is also full of gold, and whoever sneaks in and picks up a corner will have enough food and clothing for a lifetime."

"Second Wen, you're making fun of people again, aren't you? Others don't know, but I know that you haven't hidden it all these years. In the house on Nanhua Island, I'm afraid that your vault is only bigger than here, right? ”

"You know that, too?"

"Lu Wenchi has smuggled gold ingots for so many years under your nose, will you not get a piece of the pie? Your house alone is worth a lot. ”

"Isn't that also blowing up to rubble?"

Rob laughed without looking back.

"Steward Lin will take action for you, the ground is blown into ruins, and the underground vault is only afraid that it will not be damaged at all. Your trick is clever, others must not have imagined that your gold is still buried on Nanhua Island, right? ”

Wen Wen followed behind Rob and thought for a while, "I forgot, there are still great people on the island, you know so clearly, he told you?" ”

"What? Who? Don't know wow. ”

Rob begins to play dumb in a serious manner.

Wen Wen knew that he wouldn't admit it, so he didn't ask at the moment, and said to himself: "This tunnel is still a little darker." ”

Steward Lin didn't speak beside him, and when he heard Wen Wen say this, he flicked his sleeve with his right hand and threw it out. I saw a few leaf-like things flying out of my sleeves, and a white-green light dragged on the tail, and the tunnel suddenly brightened a lot. The leaf flew to the wall and attached itself there, shining like a beacon.

"Yo, what's this novelty? It must be used when prospecting underground. Will Steward Lin offer a price to pass on to the Blade Clan? ”

"If the Golden Blade King likes this Biyan Foil, he will send some platinum foil and Bibi powder to someone else, and I will make a few boxes and send them to the Golden Knife Piluo Palace." Steward Lin said lightly.

"Lao Lin is also a busy man, and he doesn't want to do it with his own hands. Why don't you tell me how to make it, and I'll let the craftsmen make it. How is it? ”

Wen Wen interrupted on the side: "Rob'er, Steward Lin has taught you a lot of things over the years, and you are insatiable. ”

"How is this insatiable, this is called endless learning. Wouldn't it be a pity that Lao Lin didn't teach us so many unique learnings? Besides, he really needs money, doesn't he? ”

"Okay, hurry up and lead the way, you can't change your goose plucking temperament."

Rob knew that gentleness was not so simple and was willing to let Steward Lin pass on the method to him, but he knew better that Steward Lin needed money, a lot of money!

"Here it is."

At first, Gentle and Steward Lin felt that the light was dim and they couldn't see clearly. Steward Lin waved his hand and threw out a few pieces of Biyan foil, but unexpectedly, the foil leaf flew in the air but had nowhere to cling to, and slowly fell to the ground.

The two of them stood still in the glimmer of light, and then realized that they were no longer a narrow underground passage, but a large empty flat land. There are seventeen or eighteen sheep intestine paths on the ground, dividing this flat land into a field grid of the same size. On each block of the ground, there is a huge pool of water, and the surface of the pool is blocked by a grid made of black iron bars the thickness of your thumb.

Gentle laughed.

"Rob, this is your vault? Why did you dig so many pools, and people who don't know say that you are raising mussels. ”

"You don't know this, it's a good way to hide gold underground, and the middle city is next to the fluorescent stone wall of the palace of the lower city, and there are all kinds of ores in the wall, plus the yin and damp and warm, even if it is real gold, it is easy to be eroded after a long time. So I dug this gold sink and sank all the gold ingots under the water, so that I could have no worries. ”

"What you are afraid of is dampness, why did you sink into the water?"

"I've mixed some gold-protecting mineral powder in the water, but it's safe. It's just that the production of this mineral powder has been decreasing in recent years, and there are a lot of ...... on Xitai Mountain."

"No wonder you're staring at Hunying's piece of land, it turns out that there is still this picture."

"Hehe, isn't this with the help of your two brothers, and the lord of the country has also agreed."

Wen originally felt that Xitai mining was not so simple, and when he heard Rob say this,

It dawned on me.

Rob said as he led the two to a sinking gold pool, took out a fire fold and took a photo, and suddenly a golden light was reflected under the water.

"There are 30,000 ingots of gold in each side of the sinking gold pool, according to the number agreed between the Great Witch God and me, Steward Lin's annual income is 10,000 ingots of gold, so I will sink 10,000 ingots of gold into this pool every year. Steward Lin has served me Imuran for eighteen years now, and he deserves 180,000 ingots of gold. ”

Rob said, pointing to the adjacent pools and said, "Here, there, and there, there are a total of 150,000 ingots of gold in these five pools, which is not less." He pointed to the other side of the pool: "Among the 180,000 ingots of gold, Steward Lin has to pay me every year for the cost of hiding the gold for him, the carriage and horse expenses when he wants to transport it out in the future, and the artificial food, housing and transportation also have to be counted, and this ......."

Steward Lin frowned and didn't speak, and Wen Wen had already opened his mouth to interrupt Rob.

"Rob'er, don't beat around the bush and count like this, just say how much Steward Lin deserves in the past eighteen years."

"One hundred and sixty-two thousand six hundred and forty-nine ingots of gold." Rob had apparently hidden this answer under his tongue for a while.

"Hey, Rob'er, you have blackened 17,000 ingots of gold with just one opening, and Steward Lin has been working for you Rob for nearly two of the past eighteen years."

Rob was just about to put on a bitter face and prepare to bargain, when Steward Lin suddenly spoke:

"Okay!"

The bitter face immediately changed to a smiling face.

"Hey, Lao Lin is refreshing, and I love money. Every penny is coming in time, Lao Lin, you see, there are still about 17,000 ingots left in this pond to fill up. When you want to use it, just tell me, and I'll move it all for you. ”

Gentleness is a little unbearable, Steward Lin and himself have been inseparable for nearly twenty years, although he has been silent in the past few days, but he can almost guess all the things he thinks in his heart.

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

Even if Lin Tongsheng understood that Luo Bu was detaining him in front of him, he could only endure it, the gold was in Luo Bu's hands, and Lin Tongsheng was only one person, and he was helpless in this matter.

What's more, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and Lin Tongsheng's plan has been lonely from the beginning.

Wen Wen suddenly a thought flashed in his heart, and he patted Rob on the shoulder and said in a loud voice:

"Rob'er, all this gold is Steward Lin, right?"

Rob was stunned, not understanding what he meant.

"Yes...... It was the reward paid by the Great Witch God to Lao Lin. Rob answered every word carefully.

"Since it's a reward, it's naturally Steward Lin who has the final say."

"Uh...... Oh, yes. ”

"Then when Steward Lin wants to use it and how to use it, it's all his business, and you Rob can't interfere."

Rob instinctively sensed something wrong with this sentence as a businessman for more than sixty years.

Lin Tongsheng's gold, I Rob didn't plan to deduct much, he still has a lot of good things in his hand, how can he be stiff?

Then why is Gentle forcing me to say this?

Yes, he said this to Lin Tongsheng, it was nothing more than to appease people's hearts.

Rob then laughed:

"That's nature."

Wen Wen continued: "Not only can't you Rob, but neither can I Wen Wen and even my brother. Do you hear me? ”
