Chapter 362: A Busy Day

After several adjustments to the costumes of the warriors of the Demon Sect, Ye Tao remembered that he used to like the game "Assassin's Creed" very much. The hooded loose robe, the leather belt on the outside, and the red trim were really beautiful. The members of the Sect Demon Regiment are active in Taizhou and Zhongzhou, and when they don't need to hide their identities, they all like to wear this robe like this. The people of the Thunder Yin Demon Sect also like to see these people. The parishioners know that if something happens and there is any danger, these people will definitely stand up and fight for themselves. Strictly speaking, the Sect Demon Regiment is not a group of fanatics, on the contrary, most of them are professional warriors with excellent skills. But this did not prevent them from protecting the parishioners and fighting the enemy.

And this hooded robe is now also popular on a larger scale. The main reason is that it can not only effectively shield the wind and sand, hide the identity, look beautiful, and can wear a variety of other clothes inside and be consistent in appearance, and this kind of clothing has a simple process and low cost. Even Ye Tao's guards now have one each, naturally, it is not the same color and ornament as the Sect Demon Regiment. Ye Tao's guards used black twill thick-woven cotton to make hooded robes, with blue ornamentation on the chest and the special rank ornamentation of the guards on the shoulders. Originally, the ornamentation on the chest of Ye Tao's guards used the logo of Yunzhou Jingluofu, the figure of a city tower floating on the clouds, and now, as Ye Tao's guards are more and more in the military and political system of Yunzhou, and Ye Tao has been promoted to the envoy of the Northern Frontier, this pattern has been replaced with an abstract image of Gondor City, the crown of the northern country, which is still under construction, has become the best highlight of Ye Tao's identity. The ornamentation on the shoulders of the guards, which varies from one person to another, with blue triangles and five-pointed stars, and different numbers symbolizing each person's rank, as well as the emblem of each person's choice of animal or plant image and the embroidery of the name.

There is no member of the Sect Demon Regiment who has seen Ye Tao's guard who is not envious. The Sect Demon Regiment and Ye Tao's guards are actually very similar in terms of personnel composition, and even many of them are good friends in the training camp set up in Jiangshan Fort in the Inner Mansion, and they are just assigned to different places. It is also a hooded robe, and the double-layer thin cotton cloth of the Sect Demon Regiment has a relatively large distance from the black hooded robe of Ye Tao's guards in terms of feel, wear resistance, breathability and aesthetics.

However, when it came time to start the mission, it would make no difference, this time when planning the operation in Anqing Nancheng, no matter which side of the person was, it was impossible to wear their hooded robes. What they had to do to disrupt was the Dao Ming Sect's puja. And now Daoming Sect, seeing all the Dongping and Yunzhou style things, such as this hooded robe, is extremely sensitive.

Although the Sect Demon Group is the main attack, this time it is not really intended to achieve any purpose, it is just to disrupt the main thing. It is to make Daoming Sect's big action that is obviously to restore face come to naught, and make it difficult for them to go smoothly everywhere. Let their status and influence in the minds of the congregation further decline. If you can take advantage of the chaos to kill some important people, that's the best, if not, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the Sect Demon Group was not very prepared to reveal their identities this time.

And the small number of guards who Ye Tao followed were responsible for attacking and preventing fire in the surrounding area, and trying to make chaos around the sect when the sect demon group began to disturb, so as to ensure that the people of the sect demon group could evacuate safely.

As for the special battalion, which had a very painful head this time, with the help of the Intelligence Bureau, in the shortest possible time, it would open the passage to the last point of the standing warehouse, cut the wall, and then empty the silver in the shortest possible time, and then quickly build the stone bricks on the wall, and then step into a certain amount of sealing soil in the outer passage. In this way, at first glance, the other party sees an empty standing warehouse. If the intelligence bureau that took over after that continued to tirelessly fill in the entire passage, I am afraid that the other party would not be able to understand how a good treasury containing millions of taels of silver could be so empty. For those people, it will be more like a paranormal event than a theft.

Naturally, this is extremely difficult. The coordination of the intelligence bureau and the special battalion was extremely important, as was the knowledge of the surrounding traffic situation, and everyone was fully prepared. A bustling street can be the best cover or a source of numerous unforeseen surprises.

"Hey, be careful." Dai Mi, who personally directed the excavation work in the passage, was a little frightened. The soldiers have taken turns to work in the passage these days, and with the fact that everyone already has some experience in civil engineering, the progress has always been very satisfactory. At this final stage, it's only a little more than a foot thick, and it's not good to rush as hard as you did at the beginning. Dai asked everyone to slow down slightly, but it still took less than half an hour to complete the final excavation work. The more experienced warriors used brick knives to get to work, unloading a few heavy stone bricks and immediately opening a passage for one person to climb in and out. A warrior cautiously entered the standing warehouse, which at this time gathered a little of the noise of the surrounding street market and echoed in the empty room. The warrior took the lamp handed by his companion behind him and swept it into the storeroom.

"How?" Dai Mi also went into the warehouse and asked softly.

"This ...... See for yourself. The warrior rolled his eyes and said with some impoliteness. However, the atmosphere in the special camp has always been like this. Only this kind of superficial class relaxation can allow everyone to refit and infiltrate without revealing their feet.

The storeroom was full. Since there was a lot of broken silver, and the rule of counting the standing treasury once a year, a large pile of broken silver was casually piled up in sacks. It occupies most of the warehouse. The other half of the treasury was actually piled with gold bars. Although they knew in advance that the silver stored here should be far more than hundreds of thousands of taels and millions of taels. But at first glance, I was still shocked, because there is still a considerable amount of time before the spring agricultural tax season, in fact, the broken silver is only half a year's tax, and the Anqing Terracotta Division has accumulated a little silver from the daily exploitation of small traders. And those gold bars, according to preliminary estimates, should be worth about two million taels.

"Let's start moving, counting as we go. If the broken silver can't be carried away, it can be piled up in our own storehouse and put together with the flour and sugar and so on. Everyone has to move fast, we don't have much time, two hours at most. Dai Mi hurriedly instructed everyone to start work. In the passage in and out of them, they had already laid simple slides on the ground in order to carry earth and stones, and there were small trolleys on them that could carry heavy loads, and now they could make full use of them.

When the first cart of gold bars was lifted to the ground, two ox carts from Song's Bakery in Xicheng happened to arrive. They happily carried away the first batch of biscuits that were still hot this morning. The two old cows didn't notice it, and the car was a lot heavier today. In order not to show their feet, the soldiers of the special battalion had already sent people to widen the wheels of the car in Song's pastry shop by two inches. This kind of detail is not an old style that looks at the car all day long, and it is impossible to find it, but that old style is also his own person.

Guanshengyuan's daily distribution has always been busy, with cars coming and going, exactly the same order as usual, without arousing any suspicion. Before I knew it, the gold bars worth 300,000 taels were shipped out, and it took less than an hour. At this time, the sergeants of the special battalion had basically emptied the standing warehouse, and they did not move things too far, but piled them up in the passage. They cleaned up the traces they had left in the standing storehouse, filled in the bricks that had been drawn apart in their original positions, flattened them, and then began to pile up the sandbags that had been prepared, and after stacking them for two or three layers, they could no longer hear any hollow sound when they knocked their heads inside the storeroom. But they still didn't give up, and poured a handful of simple cement with their own proportion. The gaps between the sandbags were also filled. They had dug a few workshops on both sides of the passage to pile up materials, but now, taking out sandbags and other things that were on the ground, they put silver and gold into them. By noon, the entire passage was completely filled with gold and silver. It was only then that they quietly finished their work in the passage and began to bake and sell biscuits and kick out those who had come to make trouble, as they usually usually did.

On the one hand, it was because they were very confident in completing the task assigned to them by Ye Tao at this time, and they had basically completed it, even better than they had set in advance. On the other hand, it was also because the surrounding streets were already congested to a certain extent that they had to stop transferring the gold and silver outward. The rest of the work will be slowly transferred to the Intelligence Bureau. Working in a treasury, the intelligence bureau will surely have a lot more money in the hands of the buyers. It has never been that Dongping does not give enough funds to the Intelligence Bureau, but that large sums of money cannot be transported at all. In the process of the gradual transformation of the financial system, although the currency and bills issued by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Bank of Yunzhou have become more and more authoritative, they have become more and more unable to be used in Xiling's system.

As for the soldiers of the special battalion, except for some people who will continue to work in Guansheng Garden for a period of time, others will be evacuated one after another. Follow Ye Tao to the next task. Since the shop always needs familiar faces, even if they are replaced, they will have to come little by little, and the soldiers of the special battalion who remain will leave Guanshengyuan one after another in half a year.

And those who evacuated in advance started a new task on the afternoon of the day they successfully helped empty the standing warehouse: to arrange a road for Ye Tao to evacuate Anqing.
