Chapter 804 Bondage

Shangguan Xiu pondered, his face was expressionless, but his brain was running rapidly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and two words came to mind -- binding! Baofeng Qian Zhuang hid all the gold, silver and jewelry that people had deposited in, if the Cai family was fine, then Bao Feng Qian Zhuang could still operate normally, people saved, Baofeng Qian Zhuang collected, people took it, and Baofeng Qian Zhuang returned.

But once something happened to the Cai family, the gold, silver and jewelry that were secretly hidden by Baofeng Qian Zhuang would never return to the hands of the guests.

Baofeng Qianzhuang did this, which is equivalent to tying all the guests who have dealings with it firmly to its own body, the Cai family is okay if nothing happens, as long as something happens, the first to fry the pot are these guests who can no longer get their money back.

Most of the guests who were able to store their gold, silver and jewelry in Baofeng Qian Zhuang were wealthy landlords, merchants, and nobles, whose power was far greater than that of the impoverished commoners, and it would be difficult for the court to suppress these people if they caused trouble.

Thinking about the meaning of this secret gold store, Shangguan Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Shopkeeper Cai repeatedly blocked his own search of the treasury, not because he had a weak heart and stole official silver, but because of the existence of this secret vault.

This secret vault, equivalent to the Cai family's life, is no matter how outsiders can not know, now the secret vault is exposed, which will make the Cai family very passive, if the news spreads, let people know that Baofeng Qian Zhuang is using himself as a talisman, then next, I am afraid that no one will dare to store gold and silver jewelry in Bao Feng Qian Zhuang, and Bao Feng Qian Zhuang will completely collapse. heiyaпge

Shangguan Xiu now finally understands why Shopkeeper Cai is disheartened, the broken jar is broken, Cai Xiao handed over such an important secret vault to him to manage, but now that the secret vault is exposed in front of so many people, how can Cai Xiao spare Shopkeeper Cai? With Cai Xiao's small belly and chicken intestines, he can tear Shopkeeper Cai alive.

"It seems that because of my relationship, this time I brought death to Shopkeeper Cai. Shangguan Xiu suddenly spoke. Others couldn't understand his words, but Shopkeeper Cai could understand them, his face suddenly changed, and he looked at Shangguan Xiu in shock and horror, and after a while, he shook his head and stammered: "I...... I don't know what Lord Shangguan is talking about?"

"Hundreds of years of foundation, customers all over the world, the Cai family is not an exaggeration to describe it as rich and rivaling the country! The Cai family's secret vault should be far more than this, right?" Shangguan Xiu said indifferently: "If I guess correctly, in every county, the Cai family has a similar secret vault. ”

Shopkeeper Cai's face was even more ugly, his eyes widened in disbelief, and he said in shock: "You...... You ......"

"Don't be surprised!" Shangguan Xiu said with a smile: "The time I have been in the same hall with Lord Cai is not short, what kind of person Lord Cai is, I know very well in my heart, plan and move, take precautions, and leave a way out for myself in advance, which is very in line with Lord Cai's consistent style." ”

Shopkeeper Cai wanted to refute, saying that this was just Shangguan Xiu's personal speculation, but when he saw Shangguan Xiu's bright eyes, he swallowed back the words that had come to his mouth, lowered his head, and was silent.

Shangguan Xiu smiled indifferently, approached Shopkeeper Cai, and said in a low voice: "However, Anyang's underground vault is exposed, Lord Cai will definitely not give up, he may not be able to help me, but he will definitely not give up on Cai's manager, and all the grievances will be vented on Cai's shopkeeper." ”

When Shopkeeper Cai heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and a look of disapproval flashed on his face. How could Cai Xiao vent his resentment against Shangguan Xiu on himself, he would only return it to Shangguan Xiu even harder, but he was right about one thing, Cai Xiao would indeed not let go of himself this time, even if the responsibility was not on him. Cai Xiao has always been ruthless, and he won't talk about the feelings of the same clan, not to mention, they are too far away from the same clan. He only belongs to a side branch of the Cai family, and Cai Xiao is the head of the Cai family.

The subtle changes in the expression on his face did not hide from Shangguan Xiu. The latter's heart moved, and he whispered casually: "If Shopkeeper Cai still wants to live, come to me tonight, you should know where I live." ”

After speaking, he put his hands behind his back, turned and walked away, and asked in a loud voice, "How was the inspection?"

At this time, Su Pengfei was like a deflated ball, and his whole body was wilted. He came to Shangguan Xiu, shook his head slowly, and said weakly: "My lord, the silver here is not official silver, it is all the silver of Baofeng Qianzhuang. ”

Shangguan Xiu had already expected it, he nodded, and said, "Okay, there is no problem with Baofeng Qianzhuang, and then we will search for Kaiyuan Yinhao." ”

Although no official silver was found, the Cai family's underground vault hidden in Baofeng Qian Zhuang was dug up, which can be regarded as compensation.

When Su Pengfei and the others left the secret room, they all took two steps and turned around, looking at the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry around them, it was absolutely impossible to say that people were not moved at all.

Don't look at Su Pengfei is deputy county lieutenant, at this time, he also secretly sighed in his heart, even if he let himself squander the money in this underground vault, he will not be able to squander it for ten or a hundred lifetimes, and the wealth accumulated by the Cai family for a hundred years is no longer within the scope of ordinary people's understanding.

Leaving Baofeng Qianzhuang, Shangguan Xiu and his party went to Kaiyuan Yinhao again. The shopkeeper of the Kaiyuan Silver Account seems to have heard that Shangguan Xiu is leading people to search the various Silver Numbers in the city.

When Shangguan Xiu and the others arrived, he took the initiative to greet him and did not make any obstructions, allowing people to open the door of the silver vault and let Shangguan Xiu and others enter it for casual inspection.

There is no secret room in the silver vault of the Kaiyuan Silver Number, and all the silver is placed on the bright side, and the quantity is not much, it is clear at a glance, and it is easy to check. Shangguan Xiu inspected the circle and found no abnormality, so he immediately led people away and returned to the hotel.

After this search, it was already dark, but the result was a great disappointment, and nothing was found. It can be said that the current Anyang City has been thoroughly investigated, and I haven't even seen the silver of the official bank, so the only explanation is that the official silver is no longer in Anyang City.

Realizing this, the hearts of the people in the Shura Hall sank. Just searching for an Anyang city is like looking for a needle in a haystack, if the silver really falls outside Anyang, and then wants to find it, its hope is so slim that it can be ignored.

After dinner, Zhang De sighed faintly and asked, "Brother Xiu, what if the official silver can't be found in the end?"

Shangguan Xiu said thoughtfully: "The gendarmerie is to blame, I am afraid that it will be banned by the imperial court and disbanded on the spot." ”

Zhang De's heart sank, and he didn't dare to continue to ask more. Shangguan Xiu smiled, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the silver will still be transported to Ning County in the end!"

"Brother Xiu is confident that he can get back the official bank?"

Shangguan Xiu shook his head and said: "The gendarmerie was calculated this time, the layout of the other party is seamless, so many days have passed, and it is almost impossible to recover the official bank." ”

"That'...... That ......"

"If we can't find the official silver, the five million taels of silver can only come out of our Shura Hall. "The value of the existence of the gendarmerie can be measured by more than five million taels of silver?

Even if this dumb man swallowed it himself, and this wronged boss did it himself, he had to make up for the five million taels of silver to keep the gendarmerie.

Hearing him say that he would take out five million taels of silver from the Shura Hall to fill this hole, everyone's hearts trembled. That's five million taels, Zhenjun smashed the pot and sold iron, and how many five million taels can he make? The people looked at each other, and no one spoke again.

Shangguan Xiu held his forehead with one hand and said, "Okay, these days, you are all tired enough, tonight, go back early to rest." By the way, try to send as many brothers as possible to strictly control the area around Anyang, and now we can't just search the official bank in the city, we need to expand the scope of the search. ”

"Brother Xiu, his subordinates have already arranged a large number of eyeliner outside Anyang City, as long as Guan Yin appears, he will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of his subordinates!"

"Very good!" Shangguan Xiu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Hall Master Zhang, go back and rest!"

"Brother Xiu, subordinates retire!"

"Hmm. ”

After Zhang De left, Shangguan Xiu stood up and stretched his muscles. Five million taels of silver, Shura Hall can afford it, but the five million taels of silver is too wronged, if this case can't be investigated with multiple clues, and it ends without a problem, then in the future, the other party will continue to hit himself with ideas, and how much silver can Shura Tang come up with to fill the new holes that may appear in the future?

Wei Tian cautiously asked, "Brother Xiu, won't we continue to search for the robbed official silver?"

"Investigate! Of course, we must continue to investigate! If I don't find out who is behind the scenes, I will definitely not give up!" Shangguan Xiu said in a deep voice.

"The subordinate understood. ”

That night, Shangguan Xiu had fallen asleep in the hotel, and in the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door. Shangguan Xiu rubbed his forehead, turned over and sat up, and said, "Come in!"

The door opened, Xiao Jue walked in briskly from the outside, and said cautiously: "Brother Xiu, the shopkeeper Cai of Baofeng Qianzhuang asks to see you!"

Shangguan Xiu asked, "What time is it?"

"The time has passed. ”

Shopkeeper Cai can really hold his breath, he still thinks he won't come! Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes, raised his head and said, "Let him in!"

"To the bedroom?"

"Hmm. ”

Xiao Jue nodded in response, turned around and walked out. After a short time, Xiao Jue returned and brought Shopkeeper Cai in at the same time.

Until now, Cai's shopkeeper's face was swollen so high, and when he saw Shangguan Xiu sitting on the bed with sleepy eyes, he hurriedly stepped forward, bowed his hand, and said: "The villain came late at night and disturbed the adult's rest, and I hope the adult will forgive the sin!"

There is no arrogance on the shopkeeper Cai, only sincerity and fear.

After speaking, he saw Shangguan Xiu sitting on the bed, half-squinting his eyes, not even reacting, as if he hadn't woken up yet, he explained again: "Today's treasury was investigated, it's not a trivial matter, the villain has been busy until now to get out." ”

Shangguan Xiu suddenly lifted the quilt, and Shopkeeper Cai was startled and hurriedly retreated. Shangguan Xiu got out of bed, put on his shoes, stood up, came to the front of the shopkeeper Cai, and said slowly: "Since the shopkeeper Cai is willing to come to me tonight, it means that the shopkeeper Cai is also very clear in his heart, today's matter, Cai Xiao will never give up, and as the first minister, it is easy to kill your cloth, and now in the entire Fengguo, there are only two people who can really save you, one is Your Majesty, and the other is me." Do you think Your Majesty will come to Anyang to save you?"
