[Ran^文^Library][]. []. [com] This time to empty Huang Zhiyin's treasury, Wu Zhi's side is extremely secretive, except for Bai Sheng and Shi Qian, the rest are also known to Xiao Rang and Jiang Jing and a few Wu Zhi's henchmen. 【Ran Library (7764)】

Brother Yun is not in Qingzhou, Wu Zhi didn't even tell them about Jin Lian Xue'er Sanniang, all the silver money from Huang Zhiyin's treasury flowed into Bai Sheng's rat hole, and it was all carried out by Wu Zhi and them in the middle of the night, this is probably the first time Wu Zhi did manual work in this world.

Of course, this kind of physical work, although it is tiring to do, but it is very cool, Wu Zhi wishes to have this kind of physical work to carry money into his pocket every day.

……

On this day, the front page of the newspaper caused an uproar in the entire city of Qingzhou.

On this day, in the streets and alleys of Qingzhou City, the newsboys who were running around selling newspapers were also shouting harder than usual......

"Nickname Outside! The silver treasury of the richest man in Qingzhou was stolen, and all his fortunes were wiped out overnight! ”

Yes, early this morning, the newspaper reported on the theft of Huang Zhi's silver treasury with great fanfare, but the newspaper news came from very justifiably, because yesterday afternoon, when the housekeeper who managed the silver treasury in Huang Zhi's mansion routinely inspected the treasury, he finally found that the silver vault at home was extremely empty today......

The house was stolen, even if Huang Zhi was grief-stricken, he had to report to the official, and the news of Qingzhou Daily was learned from the government yesterday afternoon.

At this time, even if people in Qingzhou City are no longer accustomed to Huang Zhi as a person, I am afraid that they will be very sympathetic to Huang Zhi at this moment, and say a few words of grievance for Huang Zhiming, not to mention that he also donated 150,000 yuan for the disaster area.

However, after the people of Qingzhou City learned about this, although they felt extremely shocked and frightened, there were few people who spoke for Huang Zhi, and some people even thought that Huang Zhi was to blame!

It's not that Huang Zhi's reputation in Qingzhou was too bad before, although his reputation was not very good, but it was not to the extent that everyone gloated about his theft.

The reason why the people are like this is because of a brief reporter's investigation in the detailed section of the newspaper report on the theft of Huang Zhi - according to an unnamed source inside the Huang Mansion, a sneaky stranger lived in the Huang Mansion for a few days before the theft of the silver vault. Later, according to the in-depth investigation of the reporter of Qingzhou Daily, this sneaky person is the Jiangyang thief!

Later, in order to make it easier for everyone to understand the times, a short personal "brilliant" experience of the time change was posted at the back of the newspaper...... Of course, this kind of thief who robs the rich and helps the poor is very admired.

But after all, Shi Qian is a wanted criminal by the government, Huang Zhi himself doesn't know how to clean himself and love himself, and it is no wonder that he was stolen when he interacts with this kind of Jiangyang thief, so the people of Qingzhou don't sympathize with him at all, he deserves to ask for it.

However, the times have changed, and he was only famous in the thief industry, and the government repeatedly caught him and missed it, so he naturally avoided mentioning him. However, after this report, Shi Qian's reputation immediately spread among the people, and the big families were naturally afraid that Shi Qian would loot their own silver treasury like Huang Zhi did; Ordinary people naturally talked about it one after another, and for a while, Shi Qian became a positive character......

Huangfu.

"Lord Prefect, you must believe me, it must be Wu Zhi who made the ghost! If you check him, you'll definitely find a clue! ”

As soon as Murong Yanda led a group of people into the gate of the Huang Mansion, Huang Zhi rushed to Murong Yanda's side hysterically and yelled.

"He donated another 200,000 yuan, it must be after he stole the silver from me, he will be willing to donate more, my lord, you must be the master of the people! It must be Wu Zhi's house! Huang Zhi followed Murong Yanda closely, his eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth fiercely as he spoke.

Murong Yanda also attaches great importance to this case, after all, this is a big case, since the case happened yesterday afternoon, Murong Yanda immediately brought a group of veterans from the government and the Criminal Department to investigate and visit, and he was busy until the middle of the night, until today he is still anxious!

"Don't worry, Huang Daguan, it's not up to you to decide whether Wu Zhi is suspicious, or I have the final say, it depends on ......the evidence."

Murong Yanda stopped and glanced at Huang Zhi, and said in his heart Haven't you Huang Zhi always been shrewd, why is he so irrational this time, and I don't want to think about it, Wu Zhi donated so much money to the victims of the disaster in Hebei, and he was already quite famous in the Great Song Dynasty, not only the people revered him, but the court had also noticed Wu Zhi......

In this way, not to mention that Wu Zhi is not suspicious, but he is suspicious, and no prefect dares to go to his house to check on him now.

"I'm here today to inform you of the outcome of the case." Murong Yanda continued.

"Results so soon?" When Huang Zhi heard this, there was a little expectation in his eyes.

"Of course." Murong Yanda nodded a little arrogantly, and continued: "According to the investigation, your family's silver vault was stolen and entered into the silver vault, so it was stolen...... So clean ......"

Huang Zhi felt another pain in his heart.

"And we followed the traces of the thief hole all the way through, and found that the entrance to the thief hole is in the small forest behind your Huang family's house, behind the woods are the houses and streets, and we have all checked the houses, and there are no suspicious people."

Large families generally don't want to be close to their neighbors, so there are alleys between the two sides of Huang Zhi's mansion and their neighbors, and the back of the mansion is related to the backyard.

Murong Yanda continued: "This thief hole is very clever, and after the thief finished stealing, he handled it very cleanly, so I conclude that the thief who committed the crime this time must be a habitual thief, and he is a very powerful habitual thief!" ”

"Habitual thief?" Huang Zhi said a little lost.

"Not bad!" Murong Yanda looked at Huang Zhi meaningfully, and said in an inquiring tone: "Dare to ask Huang Daguan, have you really been in contact with the changes reported in the newspaper?" ”

"I didn't ...... No! Huang Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then he insisted on it: "I have absolutely never contacted this person, the newspaper belongs to Wu Zhi's family, he must have deliberately brought up this person to excuse himself!" ”

Of course, Huang Zhi didn't dare to admit that he had something to do with Shi Qian, which would not only make the theft of his home entangled, but also commit the crime of covering up, so he could only push Wu Zhi.

"Since the newspaper was launched, has it reported any inaccuracies?" Murong Yanda asked rhetorically, and when he asked, not only Huang Zhi was speechless, but all the officials around him also shook their heads. Indeed, since its inception, the newspaper has never reported a major event wrongly.

That's credibility.

"Anyway, I haven't been in contact with Shi Qian!" Huang Zhi still denied it.

"There is no best!" Huang Zhi was unlucky enough, and Murong Yanda didn't want to delve into this matter, "However, Shi Qian recently appeared in Qingzhou, it is true that as the newspaper said, I also investigated some of the maids in your house, and they all said that they had seen a sneaky stranger, according to the appearance they described, this person is undoubtedly Shi Qian...... Since Huang Daguan has not been in contact with him, then he may have been mixed up with Huang Daguan's mansion, right? ”

"Yes, yes, yes! It must have been mixed in! Huang Zhi also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shi Qian will never sneak into your mansion for no reason, presumably Huang Daguan should understand that Shi Qian is the one who stole your silver vault, right?"

Murong Yanda also breathed a sigh of relief, this major theft, if someone else did it, then he couldn't find out, the court would definitely blame it, but Shi Qian is different, he is a well-known thief, he has a huge amount of case records in all the state capitals of Qingzhou, the so-called law does not blame the public, all the governors of the state capital have nothing to do with Shi Qian, how can the court criticize me Murong Yanda?

Besides, I have someone over me......

"Yes...... What the adults are investigating is that it should be this time to move......" The matter has come to this point Huang Zhi had no choice but to nod blankly, for Wu Zhi he is actually wishful thinking and intuitive suspicion, if he understands Wu Zhi's strength, he really doesn't think Wu Zhi has the strength to empty his treasury.

Thinking that the silver treasury was emptied, Huang Zhi felt another colic in his heart, and then he hated Wu Zhi deeply, whether it was stolen by Wu Zhi or not, if it wasn't for Wu Zhi, his silver treasury would never be stolen, Huang Zhi firmly believed.

"Okay, since Huang Daguan has no objections, then the official will close the case, and tomorrow the government will post a notice, and the newspaper will report it." After speaking, Murong Yanda patted Huang Zhi's shoulder again, and said with a straight face: "Relax, the announcement of the government's wanted Shi Qian has been sent, and we will definitely go all out to catch Shi Qian to find the silver for you!" Rest assured, rest assured ......"

After the symbolic official words were finished, Murong Yanda took people away.

Huang Zhimu was stunned in place, and he didn't even say a polite word to Murong Yanda.

"That's it?"

"Master, we shouldn't have lured the wolf into the room......" The butler said bitterly.

Obviously, he also thinks that this matter has nothing to do with Wu Zhi.

"It's gone, it's gone...... Nothing! Huang Zhi suddenly sat on the ground weakly, and began to babble incessantly.

"Master, master, you must not fall, although we have lost the treasury silver, but the salt shop is still there, and there is an income every day!"

The housekeeper helped Huang Zhi in a panic, he was right, although Huang Zhi's silver was stolen, but the shop business was still there, and there was income every day.

"Besides, what if the money is recovered?"

It's good that the housekeeper didn't mention this, and when he heard this, Huang Zhi suddenly spurted out a mouthful of old blood......

The housekeeper was startled when he saw this, but before he could react, Huang Zhi roared again.

"Go to the Chamber of Commerce and give me the 150,000 yuan I donated to get it back!"

Huang Zhi is a shrewd businessman after all, and although he wants to return the donation at this moment, although he has lost face, it is a good way not to make him too down.

……

The donations have not yet been delivered to Hebei, so the Chamber of Commerce did not withhold Huang Zhi's donation, and the donation is free! Although the people were a little critical of Huang Zhi's return of donations, most of them still expressed their understanding, after all, Huang Zhi's treasury was emptied!

It's just that in this way, Huang Zhi's face in the Chamber of Commerce has finally been lost.

However, what hit Huang Zhi even more was that a few days after he wanted to return the donation, news came from the official side, saying that the officials and ministers of the imperial court were very moved by the donation of businessmen who were worried about the country and the people, and with the unanimous consent of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the imperial court rewarded those businessmen who had outstanding performance in the performance of donations.

Of course, businessmen donate money, and the imperial court is not good at giving material rewards to businessmen, and most of the rewards are some honorary titles, such as "good families" and "glorious households...... Something like that, although these are great honors, Huang Zhi doesn't care about them.

What made Huang Zhi's eyes red was that the imperial court actually gave honorary titles to several people who had made outstanding contributions!

This is amazing, although the Song Dynasty attaches great importance to commerce, but the order of "Shinong Industry and Commerce" remains unchanged in the sage book, and the scholar still looks down on the businessman, and has an official position, even if it is a vacant position that will never have power, which also means that he suddenly jumped from the merchant to the highest scholar class, and no one dares to despise it.

Wu Zhi and Lu Junyi were named Zuo Wulang and Right Wulang, although they were only from the seventh rank, but they were already middle-level officials in this era, Wang Gang got the official title of Congyi Lang with the eighth grade, and even Liu An was mixed with the lowest Chengjielang...... Huang Zhi is going crazy!

Speaking of which, the donations from the private sector have now greatly exceeded expectations, and the imperial court has saved a large amount of silver for disaster relief, so it is already very difficult for the imperial court to pay some honorary titles.

Don't look at it as just some honorary titles, but they are hard to find, you can't buy them for any amount of money, if Huang Zhi had known, then he definitely didn't want the 150,000 yuan......

But at this time, it was too late to regret it, and now that Wu Zhi has gained fame and fortune, he is so miserable, and a monstrous hatred suddenly occupies Huang Zhi's body.

In the study of the Huang Mansion, Huang Zhi almost rushed in, and after he learned that Wu Zhi had been awarded an honorary official title, he immediately rushed here.

"Sharpen my ink!"

After sharply instructing the housekeeper beside him, Huang Zhi, who was pale, sneered and said fiercely: "Wu Zhi, Qingzhou City, you cover the sky with one hand, can't Bianjing City find someone who killed you?!" ”

"Master, are you going to write to the one in the capital?" After hearing Huang Zhi's words, the housekeeper immediately asked in surprise.

"Sharpen the ink!"

"Good!" The butler nodded solemnly.
