Chapter 101: Follow

Half an hour later, Xu Zhen returned to his home.

He hurried to his study, trying to study something as soon as possible.

However, as soon as he entered the house, he immediately felt that something was wrong, and with a shake of his right hand, he took out the dagger hidden in his sleeve!

Next, he cautiously entered his bedroom, but once inside, he quickly put away the dagger.

There was a young man standing in the house, who was none other than Jia Yi, the younger brother of the cattle trader Jia Yi.

In front of Jardin, there were also two wooden boxes, one of which was open, revealing the neatly stacked silver ingots inside.

"Benefactor, you're finally back!" Jardine hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Jia Ding," Xu Zhen immediately frowned and asked after seeing the two boxes, "What does this mean?" Didn't you say that it was good to have one box per person? ”

……

Time turns back to the Drunken Immortal Residence, and Xu Zhen is working with a group of catchers to distribute compensation to the victims who have been robbed of their property by Qiu Batian.

After all, a lot of money is involved, so naturally Xu Zhen can't be presided over alone, there are two scribes on the scene to record, and there is also a yacha sent by the yamen to supervise it.

Xu Zhen and the other fast catchers were only responsible for driving away Sima Xin's people and maintaining order at the scene, and all the belongings had to be counted and posted and verified one by one, in case someone was enriched.

However, where can these rules and regulations stop Xu Zhen, so among the people who receive compensation, Jia Ding appeared.

Xu Zhen said before that there are two things that need Jardin's help, and there is a reward.

One of them is to send messages back and forth, so that Sima Xin and Cui Xiaotian encountered.

And the other thing is to fish in the troubled waters of the Drunken Immortal Residence.

Under Xu Zhen's arrangement, Jia Ding took out two boxes of silver as a victim. Originally, it was good to have one box for one person, but I didn't expect that Jia Ding actually sent both boxes to Xu Zhen's house.

"Father," said Jardin, "I have taken two silver ingots in the box, and these two silver ingots are enough for my brother to rebuild his house and buy a ploughing ox!"

"Our Jia family is taken care of by Engong, and we are already grateful, and we really dare not take other things!"

"You...... Alas......" Xu Zhen frowned, "You may not know me very well, I said that a box for you is a box, if you don't want it, we will not be friends in the future!" ”

"This ......" Who knows, Jia Ding was slightly stunned, and actually knelt down on one knee in front of Xu Zhen, and said very excitedly, "Grace is righteous and thin, resourceful, and eliminates harm for the people, it is absolutely extraordinary, Jia Ding is willing to follow Engong to the death, and ask Engong to agree!" All this money is something outside of my body, and you will take it as my reward in the future? ”

Hey?

Xu Zhen was surprised, he didn't expect this kid Jia Ding to be so clever, he must have guessed that the fall of Qiu Batian and Cui Xiaotian was related to him, and he would rather follow him without money.

Not bad...... Not bad......

Xu Zhen's eyes showed appreciation, Jia Ding, a young man, is smart and clever, and has a high level of understanding, the key is that he is innocent, and he knows how to be grateful, and he is definitely a right-hand man.

"Okay, I promise you," Xu Zhen nodded, "but this box of silver is still yours." It's really easy to be suspicious to take it all out now, so put it with me first, and come and take it whenever you need it.

"Also, the postman's identity will not be changed for the time being, and I will go to you if necessary. You're in the dark, so it's easier for me to do things! ”

"Good!" Jia Ding hurriedly kowtowed to Xu Zhen, "Jia Ding is ready to be sent at any time!" ”

Xu Zhen hurriedly helped him up and asked, "Are you waiting for me here just to tell me this?" ”

"Engong," said Jardine hurriedly, "I brought the silver last night, and I was afraid that thieves would come in, so I kept watch here. Originally, I didn't see you come back until dawn, so I wanted to go first, but I was blocked by three people under the bed and didn't dare to move.

"They are two women, one older and one younger, and a little brother dressed as a scholar. They went into the house and got some clothes, and through their talk, I guessed it was Eungong's family, right? ”

There is no doubt that the three people are: the little daughter-in-law has a dream, the second cousin has a conscience, and the scholar Gao He.

Xu Zhen nodded, and then realized that she hadn't seen a dream for several days, she must have not expected to stay at her second cousin's house for so long, and this was to come back to pick up clothes.

No, you can't let Youmeng worry, I'll have to go and see her later, but I still have to get the important things done first.

Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Jia Ding immediately said goodbye to Xu Zhen and left Xu's house.

Seeing Jia Ding leaving, Xu Zhen opened another wooden box and muttered: Silly boy, it's really not the kind that sees money and opens his eyes, don't you know how to turn it over?

He removed the silver from the upper layer and opened the mezzanine below, which was filled with golden ingots......

Fortunately, the ancestral hall had dug a pit before, so Xu Zhen directly put two boxes of gold and silver into the pit, paved it with floor tiles, and hid it in it.

Next, he finally returned to the study, took out the book "Demon Dao", and began to study it seriously......

In the process of studying, he once again realized the value of this book, if he can really master all the content in it, if he can understand it, then he is very likely to become a bug in the Great Xuan Dynasty in the future!!

……

After some careful study, Xu Zhen finally finalized the final plan.

However, it has to be said that due to the rush of time, the plan cannot be 100% perfect, and it is possible that it will have to be adjusted at any time during the implementation process.

Among them, the most uncontrollable point is that there is too little information about that Li Chan'er, Xu Zhen doesn't know what kind of character this person is, and how strong can his martial arts be?

However, Xu Zhen is full of confidence in catching Li Sixiong.

After finalizing the plan, Xu Zhen rushed to the splendid study non-stop, saw that the little daughter-in-law had a dream, and quietly stuffed a silver ingot to Youmeng while no one saw it.

"There is a dream," Xu Zhen admonished, "To outsiders, just say that this is the reward given to me by the county government, and we will never have to pay off any bird debts in the future, you just look at the flowers!" ”

"Master, I also heard that the Wansheng gambling house was burned down, and Cui Xiaotian was also arrested in the official mansion," Youmeng clasped his hands and said prayerfully, "God bless us, next month I will finally stop having trouble repaying the money, and I will no longer worry about the bully collecting debts!" ”

Xu Zhen said in his heart, it is not God who blesses you, but your husband.

"Master...... "Arimu said excitedly, "or ...... Shall I go home? ”

"No," Xu Zhen said, "Cui Xiaotian's matter is not over yet, and I have to stay in the yamen for the time being." And now that we are in a chaotic period, it is safer for you to follow your second cousin. ”

"Yes...... But don't let Cui Xiaotian and them come out again," Youmeng was worried again, "We finally have hope." ”

"Don't worry," Xu Zhen said, "He can't come out, and there will be no one to collect debts in the future!" ”

In order to comfort Youmeng, Xu Zhen couldn't help but shake Youmeng's little hand.

Youmeng's cheeks were slightly red, and then he noticed the silver ingot in his hand.

"Huh? Isn't that right? Youmeng asked, "You just said that someone asked about it, and they said that it was issued by the Yamen, so ...... this silver ingot?"

Xu Zhen smiled slightly, and immediately approached Youmeng's ear, and opened his mouth to talk nonsense: "There is a dream, we don't have to worry about money in the future, I have dug out the cellar silver ...... according to the tips of our ancestors."

"Huh!?" When I heard a dream, I was like a dream, and I couldn't close my mouth in surprise......
