Chapter 803 Vault
Su Pengfei raised his hand and pointed at the two managers again, and said, "Take them both together!"
There was a sudden chaos in the treasury, and the family members who were guarding outside rushed in one after another. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing that the shopkeeper Cai and the two chief managers were restrained by the county army, people were stunned for a moment, and then, the sound of rustling and sharp knives out of the sheath was connected.
As soon as they showed their heads, the Tang army of the Shura Hall also poured into the treasury, and the people all showed their weapons and glared at those families with fierce eyes.
Su Pengfei pinched his waist with both hands, laughed twice, and said: "It's against you! The county army obeyed the order, took down all the criminals, and if anyone resisted, they would be killed!"
Now that Shangguan Xiu is supporting him, he is not afraid of anyone, not to mention that Shopkeeper Cai is just a slave under Cai Xiao, even if Cai Xiao comes in person, he will not be polite.
The crowd didn't pay attention to the shouting Su Pengfei at all, and people's eyes fell on the face of Shopkeeper Cai, as long as he gave an order, they would not hesitate to fight with Shangguan Xiu and the others.
Shopkeeper Cai knows no more about the people under his hands, they are all dead soldiers raised by the Cai family, and when they are ordered, no matter what they are asked to do, they will not hesitate to do it.
Today's catastrophe, I can't escape it no matter what, if I do it with Shangguan Xiu again, then the sin will be even greater, I'm afraid that in the end, not only will I be unlucky, but the whole family will have to suffer.
The latest chapter of héiyāпgê has been updated
He couldn't help but sigh, and said to his subordinates: "Put away your weapons, and no one is allowed to do anything!" Hearing his words, all the family members did not hesitate for a moment, and all the weapons that were shown were withdrawn into the sheath.
Shopkeeper Cai was like a defeated rooster, his face was full of ashes, he looked at Shangguan Xiu, shook his head and said: "Lord Shangguan, I can swear to heaven that the robbed official silver is definitely not with us, if I have half a falsehood, let me ......"
Shangguan Xiu didn't want to listen to his poisonous oath, so he waved his hand and said, "Cai is in charge, I just need you to open the secret room now, and if you have to explain the rest, you will have time to explain." ”
"Lord Shangguan really wants to go into the secret room to take a look?"
"Heh!" Shangguan Xiu chuckled, meaning that what you said wasn't nonsense!
Shopkeeper Cai bit his lip and nodded in response: "Okay!
"Shopkeeper Cai......" The two managers who had not spoken were in a hurry, their eyes were wide and round, and they looked at Shopkeeper Cai. The result of opening the secret room, he should know very well in his heart that even if Shangguan Xiu didn't kill him, Cai Xiao would never let him go.
Of course, Shopkeeper Cai knows what kind of fate he will end up with, but now he has no other way, he will act forcefully, he will not be the only one who will die, the entire Cai family will be implicated, and things will get out of control.
He shook off the two county soldiers who restrained him, tore open his neckline, pulled a red thread from his neck, and at the end of the red thread, tied a small bag, opened the mouth of the bag, and poured out a small copper key from it.
Then, he took the key and walked towards the entrance of the secret room.
When he was about to walk past Shangguan Xiu, the latter stretched out his hand, stopped him, took the key from his hand, looked at it over and over again, handed it to Su Pengfei, and said, "Master Su, you come to unlock the lock!"
"Yes!" Su Pengfei agreed, took the key, took three steps into two steps, came to the entrance of the secret room, squatted down, and was just about to insert the key into the lock hole, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong, he beckoned a subordinate to come and let him open the lock.
This secret room is hidden in the silver vault, so secret, who knows if there is a mechanism in it, Su Pengfei is not willing to take this risk.
One of the soldiers carefully opened the lock, and then took a few breaths in succession, and slammed the door of the secret room open, and at the same time, the soldier sprang out of the way.
After waiting for a while, and not hearing any strange noise, the people were relieved, and they gathered around, stretched their necks, poked their heads, and looked into the secret room.
The secret room was pitch black, and nothing could be seen clearly. Su Pengfei casually ordered the two county soldiers, and said in a deep voice: "You two take torches and go down to see!"
The two county soldiers who were ordered grinned secretly, but they did not dare to disobey, lit two torches, and bravely walked into the secret room.
The entrance to the secret room is a downward staircase, not very long, a little steep, but fortunately there is a railing on the side, so it is not too difficult to get down.
Seeing that the two soldiers had entered the secret room, and waited for a while, there was no movement inside, Su Pengfei squatted down and asked loudly into the secret room: "What have you all seen?"
"Big ...... Adults, all ...... It's all money ......" In the secret room, there was a stammering reply from the soldiers.
Hearing the reply of his subordinates, Su Pengfei almost jumped high, trembling with excitement, he found it, the official silver of five million taels was finally found!
If it weren't for Shangguan Xiu's presence, he would definitely be unable to help but look up to the sky and roar at this time. He looked at Shangguan Xiu with excitement and excitement on his face, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, the robbed official silver has finally ...... Finally we found ...... Found ......"
Could it really be Cai Xiao's doing? Shangguan Xiu really couldn't believe it.
With Cai Xiao's cunning and cunning, how could he be so uncompelled this time and go to use the official money of 5 million taels for disaster relief? In order to defeat himself, he really risked all his wealth and life.
Shangguan Xiu shook his head secretly, he ignored Su Pengfei, his body shook, and jumped directly into the secret room, Xiao Jue, Wu Yufei, Meng Tian and others did not dare to delay, they followed Shangguan Xiu and entered the secret room together.
When the people lit all the oil lamps hanging on the walls of the secret room, and looked at it again, the two county soldiers did not lie, and the secret room was indeed full of money.
Ten taels of silver ingots, not in the tray, but directly stacked, a mountain of silver, there is more than one person high, and there is not only silver in the secret room, but also gold, gold ingots and silver ingots, due to too many numbers, directly stacked together, piled up a mountain of gold.
This is not counting, in the gold mountain, silver mountain, there are also a large number of boxes, open the lid of the box to look inside, all gold and silver jewelry, agate, jade, jade and other treasures, just like stones, scattered in the box, some boxes opened, it is full of golden sand, the refraction of the golden light, are piercing eyes.
Everything in the secret room not only made everyone present look straight, but even the well-informed Shangguan Xiu couldn't come back to his senses for a while. This is an underground vault, even if it is compared to the treasury, it is nothing more than that!
Meng Tian walked to a box, grabbed a handful of golden sand from it, and the golden sand flowed back into the box along the gap between his fingers, he looked at it for a moment, threw away the golden sand in his hand, and walked to the gold mountain, took a gold ingot from it, and scratched it with his fingernails, and a scratch was clearly visible on the gold ingot.
It's all true! Meng Tian turned around and walked to the silver mountain, picked up another silver ingot, looked at it upside down, his brows furrowed, took the silver ingot, and came to Shangguan Xiu's approach.
Shangguan Xiu took the silver ingot, glanced at it, and his brows furrowed. The bottom of the silver ingot, like the silver outside, is engraved with the words Baofeng Qianzhuang.
It's not official silver! Shangguan Xiu was secretly surprised. At this time, Cai Zhangguan and the two chief managers also walked into the secret room, and saw Shangguan Xiu holding a silver ingot in a daze, Cai Shopkeeper smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Lord Shangguan, I have said again and again, the case of the robbery of the official silver has nothing to do with our Baofeng Money Village, and it is even more impossible for the official silver to be hidden in our Baofeng Money Village, since the Lord has entered the secret room, then you can search it, search it casually, if you can find an official silver from it, I Cai De will dispose of it casually with Lord Shangguan, even if I am executed by Ling Chi, I will not shout a grievance!"
The secret room was exposed, but Shopkeeper Cai was not nervous or afraid, with a posture of doing whatever you wanted, breaking the jar and breaking it, to be more precise, he is actually desperate now, and he has already held the consciousness of death.
The amount of gold, silver and jewelry stored in the secret room is too large to be counted at all, and the silver alone is probably more than five million taels, and if you add gold, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings and other treasures, the total value can only be described as astronomical.
It is inconceivable that such a huge amount of gold, silver and jewelry is hoarded in a branch of Baofeng Qianzhuang.
When the people below were inspecting the silver ingots, Shangguan Xiu walked up to Cai's shopkeeper and asked, "These gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, are all from Baofeng Qianzhuang?"
"Yes and no!"
"How's that?"
"The Cai family is a century-old family, after the ancestor of Cai Gui, the founder of the country, for hundreds of years, the Cai family has endured, and has accumulated countless wealth, these gold, silver and jewelry are all from our Cai family, and naturally they are all from Baofeng Qianzhuang!"
mentioned the ancestors and the Cai family, the shopkeeper Cai's dead face regained a little red, and the expression on his face naturally revealed arrogance.
Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes, stared at Cai's shopkeeper for a moment, walked to a box containing celebrity calligraphy and paintings, and pulled out a scroll from it.
He did not unfold the scroll, but tied a small string on one side of the scroll, and the other end of the small rope was wrapped with strips of cloth, which were full of small characters, in which the names of the people were recorded, and the time was also recorded, and the specific semicolon was already specified.
He looked at it for a moment, shook the small strip of cloth in front of Cai Zhang, and asked with a smile: "This is also your Cai family's thing?"
"This ...... This is the treasure that the guests have deposited in our Baofeng Bank!"
Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders, and looked carefully, every antique calligraphy and painting, and every valuable piece of jewelry were basically tied with similar strips of cloth, but the locations recorded on it were not the same place, some were Anyang branches, and there were also semicolons in other towns in Yujun.
But this is not normal, the guest put the valuable treasures in the Baofeng Village, just let the Baofeng Village for safekeeping, after not not to take back, Baofeng Village unified storage of these treasures, although it is convenient to manage, but when the guests come to retrieve the treasures, Baofeng Money Village needs to transfer goods from the vault first, and then send someone to transport back to the local silver number, which is really too troublesome.
Baofeng Money Village is a time-honored brand that has been established for hundreds of years, so many years have passed, it is impossible for such unreasonable rules to exist, so Baofeng Money Village must have its purpose in doing this, but what is its purpose?
