Chapter Ninety-One: Housework
When the blind man died, he was very close to Fang Xing, and the distance between the two was only three or five steps.
So he could clearly see that the blind man's face quickly turned from red to white, and then he lost his breath and fell to the ground.
It's as if he was just about to say something, and he was directly slashed by someone.
It's not like the fate of someone who leaks the secrets.
Fang Xing had killed a lot of Feng Shui warlocks, and he would have an instinctive feeling when he saw them, at least Fang Xing could see that this blind man definitely did not die of the so-called heavenly curse.
What is it that kills the blind man, it can only be the so-called hidden power of this world.
Fang Xing took a deep breath.
"It's kind of interesting."
"I can kill people invisibly at such a close distance, but I don't know how to do it."
Fang Xing just sat on the chair, closed his eyes, and began to operate his internal force wholeheartedly.
It's just that even if he strengthened his five senses through internal force, Fang Xing didn't notice anything wrong with this room.
"It looks like we still need to check again to find out what it is."
Fang Xing tapped the chair twice with his hand, and then made a decision.
Walked out of the door and said directly to the old butler:
"Don't make a noise, find the two who can keep your mouth shut the most, go into the house and put people in a sack and bury them in a remote place."
"Don't be in a hurry now, wait until the dead of night."
The old butler's expression was a little surprised, as if he didn't quite understand why the blind man said that he would die.
But as the old housekeeper of the palace, in the face of such instructions from the prince, he naturally had to deal with it well.
The one who died was just a blind man who came to cheat and eat and drink, not to mention that he died quietly in the palace like this, even if the people in the palace directly beat him to death on the street, few people cared!
Seeing that Fang Xing seemed to be about to turn around and leave, the old housekeeper hurriedly took two steps and whispered to Fang Xing:
"Lord Wang."
"What's that......"
"We should pay our wages today......"
"But you also know in this mansion, it's really impossible to pay ten taels of silver in the whole mansion, otherwise we ......"
The old housekeeper actually wanted to express that he would sell all the shops he had bought over the years.
After all, those transactions are really more and more money-saving!
Good guys, the oldest stores have lost money for nine years, and the money lost in these nine years alone is enough to buy seven or eight more stores!
Hearing the old butler say this, Fang Xing nodded indifferently.
Isn't it money?
"Is 10,000 taels of gold enough?"
The old butler spread his hands:
"Lord Wang, it's all this time, let's not be funny"
"You don't know what it's like in our house, it's been a few months, and it's only on the fifteenth day of the new year that you can add meat to your dishes."
"Everything that can be sold at home is sold, and the rest is what can't be passed on."
"Don't you have some friendship with the richest man in our imperial city, Shopkeeper Li?"
"Although it shows that the competition with Shopkeeper Li is quite fierce on the surface, and the personal relationship at the bottom is okay, let's pick a few shops and sell them directly to her, and it's good to hurry up and slow down."
The old butler was very sincere.
After all, I have been working as a housekeeper in the palace since I was young, and I have been doing it for so many years, and I have never seen such a poor time in the palace.
Sell a few more stores, and you can save a lot of money.
Fang Xing didn't explain much, just let the old butler follow him to the bedroom of the palace. Let the old butler wait outside the door for a while.
There are several large boxes in the prince's bedroom, which contain the account books that the prince has saved from doing business over the years.
There are also IOUs.
There are also pawn tickets for selling things.
There are also receipts for mortgages.
These things were all packed by the prince himself, and the others didn't know what was in the box.
Fang Xing casually threw the contents of one of the boxes into the other boxes first, and then opened his soul space and threw gold bricks into the box.
10,000 taels of gold, sounds like a lot.
If calculated according to the standard that one catty is 16 taels, it is about six or seven hundred catties.
Although I don't know how many grams a pound is in the current era, filling the entire box is definitely more than 10,000 taels of gold.
The density of gold itself is large, one cubic meter weighs nineteen tons, and Fang Xing can be said to have only taken a very small part of his gold, and he has already stuffed the entire chest to the brim.
After putting all the gold away, Fang Xing opened the door again and called the housekeeper in.
Pointing to the chest full of gold, he said to the butler:
"Take the flowers."
"It's not enough for me."
The old butler stepped forward, reached out and touched the gold in the box, and tried to pick up a piece, but he didn't take it.
Looking at the gold in the box, the old butler turned his head to look at Fang Xing again.
"Lord Wang."
"It is illegal to embezzle gold from the treasury without permission!"
"Although we are poor, don't make trouble!"
In the impression of the old butler, those who dared to pour such a large piece of gold directly were basically only the treasury would do so.
Wealthy families or wealthy families would also reserve a portion of gold, but it was also poured into gold ingots or ordinary-sized gold nuggets.
A BRICS of this size is something that only a treasury would do. After all, such a big thing can't be stolen at all, and it's easier to check when counting.
Seeing the frightened expression on the old housekeeper's face, Fang Xing didn't bother to explain.
"You can rest assured that this money is all obtained above board."
"But what you just said is right, such a large gold brick really doesn't look like an ordinary person's family."
"If you want to settle the bill today, it's all silver, and it's not convenient to take these gold bricks out."
"I'll go to Shopkeeper Li later, and get some silver flowers first."
Fang Xing said this, and looked up at the weather outside.
When I first came back, it was a clear sky, but some clouds were gradually drifting in the distance.
I don't know if Li Momei is back now?
The old butler saw that Fang Xing was so calm, it seemed that these large pieces of gold should not have been taken from the treasury.
But the prince has been poor for so long, why does he have so much gold?
I thought that the prince had just said that he would go to shopkeeper Li to get some silver for use first, and that in the past few years, the prince had run to shopkeeper Li when he was idle.
The old butler suddenly had a sudden realization.
I'm too old and stupid!
The little prince was still young when he inherited the throne, and he was not very popular all the time, so no one arranged the marriage.
But no one arranges marriage, it doesn't mean that the little prince doesn't have someone he likes!
Is this the prince's perseverance and sneaking down on the shopkeeper Li?
Could it be that this box of gold is a dowry gift from Shopkeeper Li to the prince?
Wrong.
Is it the dowry given to the prince by Shopkeeper Li!?
is worthy of being the richest woman in the imperial city, she is really rich!
