Chapter 98: Where Did the Silver Go?
Ximen Qing saw Yanggu Zhixian and Yu Zhisi's eyes wide, and he looked surprised, and couldn't help but feel secretly proud in his heart.
Look at this appearance of not seeing the world, it is really a loss for my Simon official.
Admitting that three hundred taels of silver are stacked in two chests is shocking, but it is not so surprising.
It's really an old hat, I've never seen money in my life?
Well, presumably, I was impressed by the arrogance of my Ximen official.
Yes, only I, the Ximen official, can be ruthless and take out so much money to take the lead, just to frame Nawu Dalang.
Since ancient times, wealth has to be sought in danger, and without huge investment, do you want huge returns?
It's impossible!
But there are many people who understand this truth, but how many can do it?
The more Ximen Qing thought about it, the more complacent he became, as if he was already a unique supreme existence in heaven and earth, and others were just pigs and dogs in his eyes.
Before he could sober up in his smugness, Yu Zhisi had already burst into a shout: "Ximenqing, this is your sincerity?" ”
In a fit of rage, he didn't need any excuses to prove anything, and he just scolded him.
"Yes, yes, three hundred taels of silver, worth three thousand yuan!" Ximenqing was a little confused by this voice, and completely subconsciously defended.
"Humph!" At this time, Yanggu Zhixian's face was also very ugly, and he snorted coldly, and there was already some fierceness in his eyes.
Yu Abshi's face was even more fierce, and he was furious.
What's going on?
Shouldn't it be a shock after seeing three hundred taels of silver?
Didn't you say that you had a good old hat?
Shouldn't you be impressed by the arrogance of my Simon official?
Why do you feel like you're crazy?
The official of Ximen was shocked, hurriedly turned his head, pointed to the open box, and said, "There are two hundred taels of silver in this box, and one hundred ...... in that box."
Before he could finish speaking, he was stunned.
"Impossible, impossible!"
"This is three hundred taels of silver that I put with my own hands, and there is no mistake!"
"Where's the silver? What about the silver? ”
The box, which was supposed to have two hundred taels of silver, was empty, not to mention the two thousand taels of silver, and there was not a single copper plate.
Ximenqing reached into the box, touched left and right, and even turned the box over, but he didn't find a penny.
"Where's the silver? Where will the two hundred taels go? ”
Ximen Qing panicked and hurriedly went to open another box.
"There should be a hundred taels of silver here, and there should be a hundred taels!"
The lid was lifted, but it was still empty, and there was nothing in it except air.
Not to mention the silver worth a thousand yuan.
"What's going on!"
Ximen Qingru was electrocuted, and sat on the ground.
Frightened and helpless.
It's a pity that his panic and helplessness have not been exchanged for sympathy and care.
"Humph! What nonsense! ”
Yanggu Zhixian stood up, shook his sleeves vigorously, turned around and left, and it could be seen that he was very angry.
Ximenqing's panicked and helpless behavior fell in his eyes, but it turned into a provocation and insult.
The box containing three hundred taels of silver is still a bit heavy, and when I saw the servants of the Ximen Qing family just now, they still looked like they were carrying it hard, is this planning to fool people?
Just two empty boxes, do you want to make that expression? Do you want to exert that strength?
How unreasonable!
Play yourself like a fool!
Although Yanggu Zhixian was not willing to provoke Ximenqing easily, such a farce made him angry.
The magistrate was angry and broke his house!
The dignity of the county should never be underestimated.
I also have to let Ximenqing know what it means to be an official word!
Yu Absi was also very angry, and rushed up viciously and scolded: "Ximenqing, I thought you were a person who knew things, but I didn't expect it to be so ridiculous, what are you doing this?" What's in it for you to do that! It doesn't matter if you play me, what's the benefit of playing Xianggong! It's ridiculous! ”
"Oshiji, I didn't, I didn't play with you, let alone play with the princess, you know me, I'm not that kind of person! I'm definitely not like that! Three hundred taels of silver, all of which I put into the box with my own hands! There will be no mistakes, there will be no mistakes! Ximenqing hurriedly pulled out and grabbed Yu Abshi, explaining in every possible way.
It's just that facts speak louder than words, and the fact that there are two empty boxes in front of you makes it impossible to believe Ximenqing no matter what.
"Hmph, at this time, it's not honest! Let go, you are yourself who have killed yourself, don't you think that with 15,000 yuan, you can despise the magistrate of the county! Although Yu Absi couldn't figure out what Ximenqing's intention was in doing this, he didn't have to think about it, Ximenqing angered him and the county magistrate, of course he wouldn't let Ximenqing have a good time.
Don't look at Ximenqing is the first-class rich man in Yanggu County, covering ordinary people, rampant and domineering, no one dares to provoke, but in front of the government, it is just a pile of shit, and if you step on it, you will get dirty feet, but you will kick it away when you are angry.
Ximen Qing didn't know the joints in this, and knew that he couldn't let Yu Zhisi go like this.
Otherwise, it would be not surprising that he would be in prison, and even die in prison.
Ximenqing hurriedly grabbed Yu Zhisi and refused to let go: "I believe in it, I, Ximenqing, have great courage, and I don't dare to play with him, it's Brother Qiao Yun, yes, it's Brother Qiao Yun's little beast, I have a good three hundred taels of silver, put it in two boxes, the carriage, yes, it must have been changed by him in the carriage!" ”
"It must be that little brute!"
The more Ximen Qing said, the more slippery he became, although he himself would not believe such a ridiculous thing, this is two boxes, but three hundred taels of silver, and it is not one or two purses that will be exchanged, but at this moment, it is impossible to break it if he does not push out a backpot.
Otherwise, he'd be out of luck.
Yu Abshisi didn't say much, stood in place, and looked at Ximenqing.
For Ximenqing, it is the main contradiction to launch a blame, but for him Yu Yu, what is good is the main topic, and who cares if it is not good.
Ximen Qing understood that there was a play, and hurriedly continued: "The villain will go back and get five hundred taels of silver, no, eight hundred taels, three hundred taels to the priest to make amends, and five hundred taels to the county magistrate to apologize!" ”
In this way, the 15,000 guan obtained from Wu Dalang not only went out, but also pasted 1,000 guan of money.
But there is no way to do it, if you don't do this, it will be difficult to save your life.
Yu Zhisi nodded at this time, and said majestically: "I said big official, you can raise your heart, you were exchanged for silver taels by that little monkey, it's really a big joke, go quickly, hurry home and get the silver, I'll go to the backyard for you to persuade the minister, and explain the difficulties." You can't be too late. ”
"It's not too late, it's not too late, it's going right away, it's going back right away!" Ximenqing hurriedly nodded and got up.
