Chapter 172: Night Talk Up and Down the City Wall
The Zheng family's family should not be so small, the Zheng family's family should not be so much, and the Zheng family's family should not have these. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā
The treasure hidden in the well is beyond the wealth of the country tycoon, even though it has been passed down for generations in a convenient place.
After seeing this bloody gold coin, Zhu Da could think of the reason, the Zheng family must be a Jiangyang thief far away from the Zheng family's set, judging by the news around Yuan Biao's story, the Zheng family should have stopped in the past 20 years, I am afraid that it has done a lot in the past, so many gold coins that are not regulated by the Ming Dynasty, there are only a few sources, or a caravan from the Western Regions, or a caravan from the grassland, or a caravan from the Ming Dynasty.
No matter which caravan it is, the size will not be less than a few hundred people, and these hundreds of lives will probably be killed cleanly, as for those twenty taels of silver ingots, they may be the result of plundering other caravans.
In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, only at the border and along the coast can you grab so much gold and silver, because large business transactions require a large amount of precious metals as currency, and it is impossible in other places.
In addition to the treasure of the wealthy family, there is also a possibility that with the size of the Zheng family, too much wealth will arouse suspicion, and they keep it so that they can see the light of day in the future.
The proceeds of this business, together with the seizure of the thieves and the proceeds of the digging of treasures, amounted to more than 4,300 taels of silver and 1,100 taels of gold, and at the bottom of the chest there was a layer of silver ingots, which made the amount of gold not as much as expected.
After roughly counting the number, even Zhou Qingyun, who had always been calm, became short of breath, and Li He looked a little unable to breathe, this is a large amount of more than 10,000 taels of silver, which is an amazing wealth in any sense of the word.
With this big fortune, as long as they don't do anything wrong, the three of them can live a rich life in this life, and even their children and grandchildren can live a rich life.
"If you don't take revenge, this money will be enough." Li He said inexplicably, not knowing whether he was saying this to Zhu Da or to himself.
"If you want to get a share, you can always take a share and take it away." Zhu Da said in a sullen voice, Li He hurriedly shook his head, all his attention was on gold and silver just now, and he only reacted when the time came.
Zhu Da didn't have any meaning of sneering and rhetorical questioning, his tone was very flat, as if he had said a trivial matter, Li He could hear it, if he wanted to get it, he would definitely be able to get it, but Li He also knew that he couldn't get a third, and he might get enough.
It's just that this thought was extinguished by Li He himself, he shook his head, and said with a dry smile: "What is the share, this gold and silver belongs to our brothers, and we must keep it for revenge and do great things." ”
At this time, Li He found that Zhu Da didn't look at any gold and silver after counting, but he didn't know what to reflect in the lamp, and when he got closer, he found that Zhu Da was holding a small piece of felt in his hand and turning it over, and even pulled off a trace and put it on the fire.
"Big brother, this felt has a fishy smell, and there are clean cotton bedding in the store, so you don't have to sleep on it." Li He felt a little out of shape just now, and said without words.
Zhu Da stared at the small piece of felt in his hand, looked at it very carefully, as if there were gold and silver threads in it, and said without raising his head: "Go to bed early." ”
Li He was worried in his heart, he always felt that he had said the wrong thing just now, but he couldn't see anything from Zhu Da's words and expressions, and the two were not strangers before, Zhu Da didn't pay much attention to people when he focused on it, Li He couldn't figure out what was going on, so he and Zhou Qingyun sorted out the gold and silver, locked the box, sealed the skin, and then went out.
After leaving the yard, two guys from the big car shop passed by carrying hay, chatting as they walked, "I haven't listened to the shouting of the city for a long time, I used to feel tossed, but now I hear it, and my heart is quite steady." ”
"It's not a serious person shouting, but you think too much."
The two guys talked and laughed in the past, Li He first felt that the death and chaos caused by the Tartars were passing, and the world had become peaceful again, and then he remembered that what these two said was that he heard the movement outside just now, and dared to say that it was from the city to the city.
Li He had also heard this allusion before, the city was closed every day, but some things and news had to be passed to the city after the gate was closed, and the strong soldiers who defended the city took advantage of this to make some money, and the people who delivered the words had to charge as much as they wanted, because except for them, others were not qualified to go to the city.
......
"The goods on the four carts are gone, and what is on the carts is not clear, and they are all covered with things, but there must be valuable goods, and the marks on the road are very deep."
There are people in the city shouting hoarsely, if you can't let the big car shop hear it, and you have to rush over in time to report and shout, it's really tiring, Huairen County is not big, this is almost half a circle around the city.
"Did you see blood in the car?"
"It was cleaned up, I couldn't see any blood, and the guys in the store also went to look at it, but I didn't see anyone hanging on the head."
"How many of them are there?"
"Counting the handlebar style, there are twenty-four in total."
The city shouted loudly, the man at the head of the city listened very carefully, in the past, there were more than 20 people patrolling the city, and every other section there were watchmen everywhere, but at this time there was no one, only a fat man leaned on the battlement to ask questions and listen.
"Did you see Zhou Lao Er?"
"I didn't see it, I saw three handlebar types, the small ones were asked everywhere, and I asked the guys to see them, they all knew each other."
After hearing this answer, the fat man took out a small cloth bag from his arms and threw it out, and after a while, he heard someone in the city shouting, "Thank you Second Master Yang, thank you Second Master Yang." ”
The fat man ignored the thanks of the city, turned his head and walked down the city quickly, there was a strong class of errand waiting at the corner of the steps, and when he saw the fat man coming, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face, "The wind is strong and the weather is cold at night, the second master goes to sit in the room and drink soju to warm up." ”
"Another day, you're busy, I still have something to do." The fat man nodded and said, and walked down without stopping.
The one who was called "Second Master Yang" went down to the city, and a strong class errand officer at the corner suddenly said that there was an urgent matter at home, and he wanted to go home to take a look, and asked his colleagues to take care of it.
Who didn't have an idle business when he was on an errand, everyone agreed without a word, and didn't tease him if he went back to see if the woman in the family made a fire, the errand laughed and scolded a few words, and ran down the city quickly, looking at the direction he was going, but he walked all the way with "Second Master Yang".
When this man got out of the city, the other Zhuangban officers walked down the steps to the city, and one of them sneered and said, "Let the brothers wait here, who doesn't know what he is shouting?" It's nothing more than a trap to share the spoils, and it's not done magnificently. ”
"I heard that the group he mobilized was all broken, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to eat alone in the future, so I have to let my brothers share some profits......
"If you want to get beauty, but also share some profits, Yang Shouwen is married to Master Fang, with Master Fang's protection, Master Taizun can't help it, do you still care about us?"
"What is married, it is nothing more than giving his sister-in-law to Uncle Fang to be a child, he said that in the end he is a deputy team leader, our Uncle Wang is the team leader in charge, Yang Shouwen relies on Master Fang, our Uncle Wang also married a family with Master Zhou, who is worse than whom."
"You have a use for talking about these, the hill that went to report to Uncle Wang just now is still stuttering, let's eat snow and drink the wind, let's patrol the city honestly!"
The fat man who was talked about by the Zhuangban officers, after going down to the city, hurried all the way to the vicinity of the county office, and let him be accompanied by two companions, both of whom were officers in soap clothes.
It was dark, and there were occasional people passing by on the road, or the errand man on duty at night, or all kinds of people who returned late, etc., these people saw this fat man Yang Shouwen, they all greeted respectfully, smiled and avoided to the side, this is the deputy head of the Zhuang class Yang Erye, the big man in the city, it is said that there are several groups of powerful bandits outside the city who run for him, and they say that whoever they kill will kill whoever they want.
Yang Shouwen ignored these greetings and politeness, it was already a little cold at night, but this fat man walked with sweat on his forehead, and the two companions with lanterns were about to trot, it was not okay not to play the lanterns, only a few streets in Huairen County were still bright at night, and most of the places were dark after nightfall, and there were many dirty debris on the road, and if you were not careful, you would step on it and trip.
I rushed to the area in front of me, although it was not bright, but there were still lanterns hanging in front of the doors of several houses, and the street looked much cleaner. It is inhabited by decent people in the city, who either cannot afford to offend, or who cannot be offended.
When passing by a house, Yang Shouwen glanced a few times, the regulations of this house are not bad, but there are no lanterns in front of the door, this is the family that moved from Zhengjiaji, and now there is only a little girl and a servant, it is really bold.
Yang Shouwen spat at fiercely, but his footsteps did not stop, and he walked forward for a while, turning the corner of the street, but it was a house that covered a wider area and looked more magnificent, not only with a big lantern hanging in front of the door, but also two errand servants dressed as sitting in front of the door.
"Inform me, Yang Shouwen has something to see Master Fang." Yang Shouwen went to the door and greeted him with a smile.
"The second master is here, the eldest master has orders, the second master comes and leads it in directly, the second master is with the little one." The officer guarding the door also had a smile on his face, got up to greet him, and walked inside with Yang Shouwen, and the two lantern-playing companions stopped outside in a fun way.
Another gatekeeper glanced at the two companions, but did not stand up, although everyone was a servant working on an errand in the third shift, but he was doing things for the master of the official room Jingchengfang, and these two were for Yang Shouwen, the deputy head of the Zhuang class, which was a few grades lower than himself......
