Chapter 5: Playing Hooligans
Li Jingda led the team to the front.
After walking for half a mile, he felt that something was wrong, so he turned his head and said, "Little Daoist Qian, we are going to Mingyue Temple to inspect the local stability, you come and walk in front!"
Qian Ming said: "If I go ahead, you can only pick up what I don't want!"
Li Jing nodded again and again: "It's okay, it's okay, you are a Daguan Immortal, and you should be respected as you deserve!"
Qian Ming secretly scolded treacherous, helplessly walked in the front, he let the rhubarb run out forty or fifty meters in front of it, its sense of smell and hearing is sensitive, and its speed is fast, so it is somewhat safer.
At the range of 200 meters, the heat wave rolled in, and the burning flames were clearly visible.
Of the thousands of buildings in the Shangguan family, two or three hundred have become ruins, two or three hundred have not caught fire, and the others are burning violently.
As he was looking, several black shadows crossed into the burning mansion in the east.
Li Jing exclaimed: "That's people from other towns, we have to hurry!"
As soon as the words fell, two black shadows in the north jumped into the Shangguan family.
Not only the nearby towns, but also those who are brave enough to have news will not miss it!
Everyone understands that it is necessary to get rich as soon as possible.
Qian Ming said: "Follow me!"
He was the first to jump into the Shangguan family, and of course Rhubarb had already entered a burned building under his command, surrounded by ruins, the roof had been completely burned down, and the air was filled with the smell of burning.
At a glance, he saw something slightly smaller than a fist rolling down the corner of the wall, and quickly picked it up, gently wiping off the black ash on it, revealing a silver-white body, ha, a ingot, fifty taels of silver!
Li Jing and the others looked at his ingot of silver with hot eyes, and immediately searched all over the house, and if there was a slight abnormality, he immediately used his hand to pull and pull with a knife, a stick, and a hand, and dug it with his hands, but the result was not ideal, only Gu San found one or two pieces of silver.
Qian Ming had rhubarb to help, and after a while, he found an ingot of ten taels of silver, this time Li Jing and his gang only Zhao Qi found a few pieces of silver, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed, Qian Ming didn't bother to pay attention to it, only his eyes were rolling around looking for other opportunities.
This may be the place where the stewards of the Shangguan family live, and these stewards have some authority, they can get some oil and water on weekdays, and they can also have some silver savings.
Then to the more cramped room on the side, there is no gain, it is a pure servant's residence, like all big families, it is difficult for the servants of the Shangguan family to make money, most of them can only ensure their own food and clothing, and have no savings at all.
I don't know if these family members were burned to death, or if they were called away by the Shangguan family, anyway, there was no one here!
"There's no need to go here!" Qian Ming looked at it.
The row of dwellings over there, judging from the ruins, were dove's nests, and could only be used by the lowest-ranking servants, who had no money!
Li Jing and the others glanced at it and quickly followed Qian Ming to the burned house on the east side.
The house here is bigger, larger than the previous steward's room, maybe the place where the person in charge and other level people live, looking at these ruins, Li Jing and the others were a little excited.
Qian Ming entered a room in a hurry, everything in this room was burned down, only there were a few jars of pickled cabbage in the corner, he used his sword to smash a few jars, most of them were barbecued ashes, but slowly, the smallest and most broken jar was a lump of black things the size of an egg in it, Qian Ming carefully brushed off the black char on it, revealing something shiny with golden light, it was a ball of gold!
That's a dozen taels of gold!
This must have been stolen by the director who lives here!
Li Jing and the others had red eyes, and they were poking everywhere, but there was nothing!
"I don't believe it, the benefits are all taken by you, a little Taoist priest!" Li Jing said with a heavy chest.
He was no longer willing to follow behind Qian Ming, and others were not willing to follow him.
The first to eat meat, the latter to eat!
They could see that the burned house might not be in any danger, so what were they waiting for? Speed is money! In the blink of an eye, they each flew towards the abandoned house in their hearts.
Before it burned down, the better the building, the more likely it was to live with rich and powerful people, and the richer its owner, the more likely it was to leave good things behind.
Now that the houses have burned down, the only criterion for judging the quality of the house is the size of the area surrounded by the ruins and broken walls.
Qian Ming doesn't care about them, he only keeps in touch with Rhubarb, Rhubarb is also very competitive, there will be a harvest everywhere, there are a lot of gold nuggets and silver ingots, and once he found a red brilliant gem!
This red gemstone is not the best, but it is not bad, it is worth a hundred taels of gold, and the general steward should not be willing to buy such a luxury item, I am afraid that a steward also stole from the Shangguan family.
Although Li Jing and others have also gained something, they are far worse than Qian Ming, dozens of times worse.
Squinting eyes, Chen Yuan whispered to Li Jing: "Brother Li, this can't be done, the benefits have been taken away by the little Taoist!"
Li Jing was also very upset, and said, "Then what do you want?"
Squinting eyes, Chen Yuan said: "Everyone came together, taking the same risk, of course, we have to share weal and woe!"
Li Jing smiled and nodded in agreement.
Li Jinghe squinted his eyes and Chen Yuan stopped Qian Ming, and the three brothers of the Gu family and the camel Zhao Qi also came over.
Qian Ming was surprised: "Everyone, do you have something?"
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, my brother Li has something to do with you!"
Li Jing shook his head and said unceremoniously: "Little Taoist, there is something wrong, we forgot to agree on how to divide the spoils before we came!"
I'm your second uncle, now to mention this, if you get more, don't say a word, now you get less, start to make a bad idea!
Qian Ming said toughly: "Do you still have to discuss this, of course whoever picked it up belongs to whom, each depends on his ability, isn't it?"
Chen Yuan said: "That's not the case, a few of us came together, and it was originally a whole, so of course the things we picked up should also be shared equally by everyone, shouldn't we?"
He looked at the three brothers of the Gu family and Zhao Qi, the camel, and asked for their opinions.
Camel Zhao Qi immediately responded: "Brother Li and Brother Chen are reasonable, what they talk about when they go out is righteousness, they share difficulties and blessings, I am willing to hand over all my income and share the property with everyone!"
Qian Ming secretly sighed, your uncle, you dead camel didn't get a total of ten taels of silver, isn't it just for you to be given away for nothing!
Li Jingdao: "Since everyone says so, then do it, everyone will hand over the things they picked up to me for temporary safekeeping!"
Qian Ming was stunned angrily, what do you mean by everyone saying that? Did I say it? Everyone handed over things to you for safekeeping, do you think you have a good reputation?
Qian Ming said: "Three brothers of the Gu family, do you think so too?"
Gu Er and Gu San looked at Gu Da, Gu Da was still groaning, and Qian Ming didn't have any hope, these people were all mixed up outside, there were no good birds, besides, who didn't want to make a windfall and completely solve some problems!
Gu Da still spoke, and said, "We think it's not bad to rely on our own abilities, so our three brothers won't get involved in your affairs!"
After saying that, he took the two brothers and left.
Qian Ming was almost moved to tears, there are still good people who adhere to principles in Yuande Town!
