A few days later, Zhou Chun brought Shi Chao to report the good news: "Girl, the thief who pried the safe has been caught, and it is the two families mentioned before." ”

"That alley is inhabited by a group of thugs, who usually steal chickens and dogs. One of the gangsters is named Lu Yi. This Lu Yi usually likes to delve into kitkat lewd skills the most. When he asked people to unlock the lock in front of Dali Temple, he went to open it twice. Because he didn't open the lock, he kept itching and wanted to study the lock again. ”

"For this reason, he also sent his men to our shop to inquire if there was a separate lock for sale, but naturally the guy refused. He and his subordinates searched everywhere and found that everyone who could afford a safe had a nursing home and subordinates. The safe is not placed in the storeroom, but guarded by a successor; It is placed in the master's house, and there are maids and women watching it when they go in and out. ”

The gangsters under him looked at him like this, and thought that if they could really open the safe, they would be able to recoup their capital by stealing from a family, and they would be able to earn more. simply gritted his teeth, pooled money to buy a safe for Lu Yi and came back to ponder. ”

Lu Yi pondered about this safe for more than a month, and he also made a special gadget to pick the lock, but before he could open the lock, the lock was broken. Lu Yi couldn't hold it back this time, so he directly bought the house left by his father and mother, and bought a safe, which finally pried open the lock of the safe. ”

"They have already inquired about the person who wants to steal, and the first rich man to start has money, but he has no power, even if he loses his money, he doesn't dare to go to the yamen or Baoningxuan to make trouble. They also arranged all the people who were going to pry next, all of which were similar to this one. ”

"If it weren't for your reminder, girl, the yamen didn't catch this group of people in time, I'm afraid that countless people would suffer next. When the crowd is excited, they may come to our safe shop to make trouble and demand compensation from us. ”

Speaking of this, Shi Chao had palpitations.

Although this shop is nominally the emperor's. But the law doesn't blame the public, everyone makes a fuss, and the emperor can't punish everyone for anything, maybe he will turn around and blame the girl, saying that the thing she made is not reliable, and it will affect his reputation.

My own girl is very talented, and my uncle has only become a six-grade official, if it is ruined by such a deal, it will really outweigh the losses.

"Get the word out about it." Zhao Ruxi said.

"Girl?" Shi was taken aback.

He was still thinking about whether to pay some money to seal the mouths of the officials and prevent them from publicizing this matter, so as not to damage the reputation of Bao Ningxuan and make the emperor unhappy.

Although Zhou Chun didn't know what medicine Zhao Ruxi was selling in his gourd, he had already been confident in Zhao Ruxi's fascination.

The girl is a person who takes one step and sees ten steps, and how can they guess what is going on in her heart?

He said: "Shopkeeper Shi, the girl has her own reason for telling her like this. Do as the girl tells you. Half a year ago, when the girl asked you to register the buyer's situation, didn't you also understand? Now see how the results are? ”

As soon as Zhou Chun said this, Shi Chao suddenly came to his senses, and immediately saluted Zhao Ruxi: "Yes, girl, the villain will publicize this matter." ”

……

Liu Longcheng is a wealthy family in the west of the city, the Liu family has been diligent and diligent for several lifetimes, plus some luck, and has accumulated some wealth.

On this day, Liu Longcheng came back from the shop and saw his father, who had always been happy, with a sad face. He hurriedly asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Alas, Wang Fugui's family on Yiqian Street, do you know? I went out for a walk today, and I heard someone say in the street that his house had been burglarized, and that the safe had been broken open and that the gold, silver, and jewels had been stolen. In addition to these, there are also house deeds and title deeds. ”

Liu Longcheng was taken aback: "How come?" At the beginning, so many people in front of Dali Temple tried it, but they couldn't open the safe. How did the thieves pry the cabinet open? ”

They also saw that the safe was indeed strong, and that it was iron, as long as it was painted every year, it would not rust and it would be used for dozens or hundreds of years, and it would be worth spending a few hundred taels of silver. So they also bought one and put it in Mrs. Liu's house.

I didn't expect this cabinet to be pried open.

They have all the valuable things in it. If it is stolen by a thief, the loss will be great.

"No, I'll have to go out and inquire." Liu Longcheng couldn't sit still, so he went out without eating.

He came back half an hour later, and his face was very unsightly.

"Send more people to guard the house, especially your house, send a few more. A thief can't steal what's inside out of thin air in front of the nurse, right? Liu Long became enlightened.

Old lady Liu nodded: "That's the only way." ”

That being said, Mrs. Liu didn't fall asleep that night, and she always felt that someone had entered the house to steal things. The next day he didn't go out to have fun with anyone, but stayed at home, guarding his safe.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu was very worried.

When Liu Longcheng came back in the evening, she said to her son, "What can I do?" Your father is like this, it's not good for the body. It was better not to buy this safe in the first place. Spending so much silver, it's not insured. ”

"I was worried when I didn't buy it, but I couldn't do it at that time. After buying it, I slept for a while. Who knows. "Old lady Liu is fair.

The old lady just felt sorry for her wife and complained casually, and she didn't really think that the safe was bad.

She is the head of the house, and she knows all too well about the experience of having a safe or not.

The valuable things in the house used to be packed in mahogany cabinets, locked with big locks, and guarded by subordinates, but they were still not at ease. There is no shortage of stolen things in the house. Some are external thieves, some are internal thieves. The lock was easy to pick and was stolen if you weren't careful. With a safe, it's much more reassuring, except for her, who has a key, no one can open it.

Who would have thought that the safe would not be insured at this time, and it would be back to the days of fear before.

Liu Longcheng looked relaxed when he returned. At this time, he heard the conversation between the old couple, and he hurriedly said: "Father, mother, I was about to tell you two about this." Today, the yamen announced that the thief was caught, and it was Bao Ningxuan who provided clues before he was caught. The things lost by Wang Fugui's family were all recovered before the thief had time to deal with them. ”

"Really? Ouch, that's great. Mrs. Liu shouted.

Old lady Liu asked, "How did you catch it?" ”

Liu Longcheng told Lu Yi about the gang, and finally said: "At the beginning, I thought that Bao Ningxuan was doing this too much. We bought this thing late, Bao Ningxuan's business is not so prosperous, there are no two customers in the shop, and he sees that his safe is placed there. But they were stunned and said that there was no stock, and told me to leave the address and send it to me the next day. ”
