Episode 192 The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind

Xiang Xiaoqiang and a few people inspected the Qing Imperial Bank, the thick steel door of the vault was closed, and two people's guard gendarmes and two commando soldiers, each armed with submachine guns, guarded both sides of the vault door. A three-man machine-gun team sits on a table with a woodpecker aimed at the staircase below.

Since Mu Hu came in to get the bonds yesterday, the door of the vault has never been opened. At the moment, no one has a key or password, and they must wait until everything is settled, and then they can find the president and two vice presidents of Daqing Bank to open the door. Xiang Xiaoqiang was relieved to see that the imperial treasury was intact. He made a color with Xiuxiu, and the group walked up to it.

Returning from the ground to the ground, Xiang Xiaoqiang asked the others to stay in the hall, and then took only Xiuxiu and Wu Yanbin to the sixth floor by luxury elevator.

The sixth floor is the top floor, which is also the location of the office of the president of the Qing Imperial Bank, and is more and more luxuriously decorated. Xiang Xiaoqiang looked up and saw that there was something similar to a vent on the wooden ceiling every other section. There is also a small snowflake logo on it, followed by an English sentence.

"What is this?" Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly pointed and asked, "Is it an air conditioner?" ”

Xiuxiu and Wu Yanbin looked at each other.

Wu Yanbin asked tentatively:

"Air conditioning? …… Adults, what is an air conditioner? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang pointed to the vent above his head and asked:

"It's too high for me to see, which of you has good eyesight, read those words to me."

Wu Yanbin has good eyesight, but his English is poor. Xiuxiu's eyesight and English were better, so she looked up at it for a moment and said:

"It seems to be an American company. In front of it is the name of the individual. It seems to be ...... United States...... Carlil & Co. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang understood. This thing is really an air conditioner. After he came to this plane, although he was already a high-ranking lord and had a lot of money, he still had to endure the same heat as ordinary people at this time. At most, I spent money to buy a few feet of ice, put a basin behind the fan, and blow it with cool air.

Therefore, he also made people take a look at the situation of air conditioners in this era to see if it was possible to buy one. He also knew that it was Carlil who invented the first air conditioner, and that Carlile is now operating air conditioners. But at this time, air conditioners are huge, expensive, and difficult to install, and belong to the highest-end high-end luxury goods. It is only possible to install one in luxurious large-scale public facilities, such as large shopping malls, large hotels, large theaters, etc. As for the private house, it seems that Da Ming has not heard of the rich man at home. Moreover, the stomachache also suggested that it was better for him to buy a private jet with this money, which was much more practical. Xiang Xiaoqiang sweated, and then dispelled his thoughts, and didn't plan to be in the limelight again.

Now, this kind of thing that is not even available in the Nanjing Imperial Palace (Zhu Yourong was afraid of causing damage to the ancient building, so he did not let it be installed), and a bank office in the Northern Qing Dynasty actually used it in a bullish manner. And this is not a big bank like Morgan and Citigroup, and other bosses are spending their own money in luxury. This Qing Imperial Bank is a national bank, and every penny of its expenses comes from the people's fat and people's ointment. At the same time, the annual income of workers in the Northern Qing Dynasty was only 1/6 of the annual income of Ming workers, and the annual income of farmers in the Northern Qing Dynasty was only 1/10 of that of Ming farmers.

"What do you mean by a poor temple rich abbot?" Xiang Xiaoqiang shook his head and sighed with a smile, "That's it." ”

……

Because this floor is basically the president's office area, there are not many people, the carpet is very soft, and it is quiet to walk on it. Xiuxiu led them to the innermost office. The office of the President of the Imperial Bank of the Great Qing Dynasty.

As soon as Xiang Xiaoqiang entered, he suddenly felt enlightened, and the sky was high and wide. This office is the size of half a basketball court. The ceiling is four or five meters high, and a gorgeous set of crystal chandeliers that look like they are worth 40 million hang high...... Xiang Xiaoqiang had seen Hitler's big office in Germany, and now he felt that the Qing Dynasty Governor's office was no better than that of the German Führer.

What caught his eye the most was a large glass wall. Behind the glass wall, in the mysterious dim light, two small sharks swam rapidly. In front of the shark is the large desk of the Governor.

"Lean on ......" Xiang Xiaoqiang walked quickly to the glass wall, looked at the little shark behind him, and muttered, "There is a murderous aura." It's going to enjoy ...... Why didn't I remember to get two nourishments? Xiuxiu, write it down, go back and check for me where this shark is sold and how much it costs. Go back and get one of these things on the wall of our house......"

Xiuxiu's face changed color slightly, and she glanced at Wu Yanbin in embarrassment.

Each of these two small sharks is more than half a meter long, presumably belonging to reef sharks or something. Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly remembered that this thing needs seawater. Especially sharks have high requirements for water quality, so they have to change the sea water every day. This is Beijing, more than 100 kilometers from the sea. It is estimated that the money for transporting seawater every day is worth half a month's worth of grain for a farmer.

"Forget it, Xiuxiu," he waved his hand, "no need to remember." This thing needs to use seawater. Nanjing is farther from the sea and is no longer raised. Low-key, low-key. ”

"My lord," Xiuxiu said, "Muhu is right behind the shark. ”

With that, she stepped forward, opened a lid, and pressed a button. Immediately, the entire glass wall slowly turned. The two baby sharks were startled by the shock and scurried lightning in the water.

The entire glass wall turned vertically, revealing a room in the back.

……

Mu Hu was tied up with five flowers, with a towel stuffed in his mouth, and sat on a chair. Opposite, Hu Jiong sat on the sofa and looked at him.

Seeing a few people coming in, Hu Jiong immediately got up and stood upright:

"My lord! Adjutant Shang. ”

Mu Hu, who was sitting in the chair, shook his head desperately, snorted in his mouth, and stared at Xiang Xiaoqiang with red eyes, as if he was on fire.

Xiang Xiaoqiang and Mu Hu saw each other for the first time. Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at him unhurriedly, and said lightly:

"This is Mu Hu?"

Xiuxiu and Hu Jiong replied at the same time:

"Yes."

Xiang Xiaoqiang grinned, patted his head with his hand, and said with a smile:

"Okay, Chairman Mu, there are two hits. The people are funny. Yes? Hahaha. ”

Mu Hu's head shook desperately, and a hysterical cry came out of his throat. But it's all absorbed by the towel in your mouth.

"What," Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled, "I heard that you still want to run at the last minute?" And let people arrange trains? Did you let someone go to Changping to arrange a plane? Then you can't run away empty-handed. You have to bring some entanglement. It seems that the national treasury and the Forbidden City have been reached out by you. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang ripped off the towel in his mouth and said:

"Say, where are you now?"

Mu Hu gasped and stared at him resentfully, as if hesitating whether to spit on Xiao Qiang heroically or ...... Or whatever.

Stretching out his hand to Xiaoqiang, Hu Jiong put the pistol in his hand. Xiang Xiaoqiang pulled the trigger head, pointed at Mu Hu's head, and said:

"Say it. If you don't say it, then Shun will say it. If you don't say it, others will say it. Whoever speaks first will let him live. ”

"Xiang Xiaoqiang!!" Mu Hu roared hysterically, "I don't believe it's up to you whether I'm dead or alive!" ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"I'm sorry, but it seems that it's up to me whether you're dead or alive. Because now no one knows you're here, or even that you're alive. All I have to do is kill you, and you'll be gone. Hahaha...... Come to think of it, isn't it scary? ”

Mu Hu gasped, but his face slowly began to turn white.

"Xiang Xiaoqiang!" He roared again, "Aren't you Ming a constitutional state? How can a constitutional country still have someone like you who covers the sky with one hand! How dare you not let me go to court!

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"Who told us that the constitution is not complete. Although we can't cover the sky with one hand forever like you, we can still cover the sky with one hand once in a while...... For example, now, who can supervise me now? Who can check and balance me? You give me power, you give me a chance, please, I'm not a saint, what do you tell me to do? Hahaha...... So on the question of whether you are dead or alive, I can cover the sky with whatever I want now. But...... If you cooperate, you can live. With the great 'people-lord-fighter-warrior' of Chairman Mu, maybe you can really help us transform the Ming Dynasty into a real constitutional country. At that time, people like me would not dare to cover the sky with one hand. Hahaha! ”

The beads of sweat on Mu Hu's face fell from the earth. It took a long time before he gasped and said:

"So, even if I tell you, I won't live."

"That's not necessarily," Xiang Xiaoqiang shook his head and smiled, "I have so much power and face so much wealth, whether I am greedy for ink or not, some people will say that I am greedy for ink afterwards." I couldn't tell. Plus you're dead again, and I can't tell. People will naturally think that I am greedy for money, and then kill you. But if you are alive and know each other well, even if I am greedy for ink, you can prove that I am not greedy for ink. Besides, you're familiar enough, aren't you? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang patted his head and said with a smile:

"You're real, aren't you?"

Mu Hu understood. He suddenly saw life, and his eyes lit up. However, he turned his mind and said:

"Xiang Xiaoqiang, then you're not afraid that I will sell you again after I get out of here?"

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"Don't be afraid, not afraid. No matter how much treasure I keep, I'll leave you a copy. Whether you go to prison or be released soon, as long as you don't talk nonsense inside, I will give you your share after you come out, and you can still live a very nourishing life for the rest of your life. You see, as long as you don't talk nonsense, I'll share your treasure. But if I don't share your treasure, you can still denounce me. Isn't it true that none of us have to worry? ”

Mu Hu rolled his eyes, and his heart was gradually filled with ecstasy. He jerked his head up and said:

"Xiang Xiaoqiang, what do you say?"

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"Of course it counts. It's good for everyone. We don't have a grudge. ”

"Okay," he said, gritting his teeth, "things are ...... right now."

Mu Hu told the location of the treasure.

"Holy!" Xiang Xiaoqiang was taken aback, "There are so many valuables, you actually threw them in the luggage compartment of the train!" Damn it, someone might have stolen it now! Let's go, let's go! ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang said and came out with two people.

……

"My lord," Xiuxiu said nervously, "you really want to ......"

Xiang Xiaoqiang whispered:

"Mu Hu can't keep it. Yanbin, Xiuxiu, let's go get the treasure. Hu Jiong, you stay here and wait for the call. I'll call you and say, 'That's right,' and you'll kill him." ”

Hu Jiong also panicked:

"My lord, what ...... Aren't you intelligible? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled:

"It doesn't matter, he was killed by Ha Yukun. Hehe, when we caught Ha Yukun, didn't they already kill Na Shun? Ha Yukun obviously knew where Mu Hu's treasure was, and he wanted to kill it. Now, we're doing it for him. They killed Nashun, which was caught red-handed by our commandos, and they couldn't get rid of it. So, they said that they only killed Nashun, not Muhu, who believes it? ”

"That'...... So what about Ha Yukun? Kill too? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang says:

"Let's talk about killing or not. He first led his troops to rob Beijing, and then killed people...... didn't kill Mu Hu, but Nashun was indeed killed by him. The family didn't do anything evil, an honest person, just died unjustly. With this article, Ha Yukun deserves to die. Anyway, he was on his back with this black cauldron. ”
