Chapter 461: Money, It's Really Gone
Gu Rongrong leaned close to Leng Xinghe's ear and whispered a few words.
Leng Xinghe nodded: "Okay, I'll go immediately." ”
He turned around and instructed the secret guard, according to what Gu Rongrong said, to lead everyone to break inside to see.
Gu Rongrong saw him leaving, so she hurriedly went outside the silver vault and looked inside.
The silver was put down, Zhu Pingsong took someone to return the same way first, because the shopkeeper gestured to the shopkeeper Li in the shop, and asked him to go to the warehouse to check.
There are secret things in the treasury, and there are things that they have private dealings with, and the fewer people who know about them, the better.
Gu Rongrong smiled, this is a good time.
She quickly entered, and the hen said in the space: "Don't look over there, it's all empty boxes, yes, only a few boxes here." ”
Gu Rongrong took away the original ones in the silver treasury and those sent by Zhu Pingsong.
I also checked the location of the mechanism by the way, so that I knew it in my heart and returned the same way.
Soon after returning to the original place, I heard a chaotic crowd in front of the door, and sure enough, there was a commotion, and many people poured in.
There are a lot of thugs in Qianzhuang, but there are also scores, there are so many people outside, how can they not be stopped, besides, I don't know who reported to the official, the assassin Shifu and the city protector are coming.
Hao Jianzhang personally brought people here, when the crowd was surging.
Shopkeeper Li's sweat was about to soak his underwear, and when he saw him coming, he was relieved, and hurriedly said loudly: "My lord, help!" ”
Hao Jianzhang had a calm face and asked coldly, "Help?" Did you call for help first? How did this envoy hear that there was a problem with your money here, and the people couldn't withdraw it? ”
Shopkeeper Li hurriedly said: "My lord, by no means, this matter allows the villain to come slowly, please inside." ”
Hao Jianzhang said righteously, waved his hand and said: "If I don't want to go in, I'll just watch here." ”
He looked around, although his face was dark and his aura was strong, many people knew that he had always been upright and would not oppress the people.
Hao Yannuo also walked out of the crowd: "Father, there is indeed something wrong with today's matter, Steward Lu came to take the silver on the orders of his grandfather, but he has not yet received the money, and the shopkeepers of several other shops have not taken it." ”
"As for small depositors, there are none."
Some of the people had the audacity to say, "My lord, the villain has no intention of making trouble, but he heard that he can't get money here, so he asked." ”
"Yes, my lord, that money is my hard-earned money."
"It's our family's livelihood!"
"If it weren't for Shopkeeper Li saying that we could keep it on my behalf and not charge a storage fee, we wouldn't be here, my lord."
The voices around him fluctuated, and more and more people asked for help, and I don't know who cried softly, and after a short silence, the crying became more and more.
Hao Jianzhang couldn't see others crying the most, so he waved his hand: "Come, find a few representatives, go in and see what's going on." ”
When Shopkeeper Li heard this, his head was stunned: "My lord, no!" ”
He blurted out, and Hao Jianzhang immediately stared at him: "Can't?" The envoy said yes, but what should you not do? ”
Shopkeeper Li gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, how important is the silver treasury?" There is so much silver in it, how can people go in and watch it at will? There is absolutely no reason for this. ”
Before Hao Jianzhang could speak, someone in the crowd shouted: "Since there is a lot of silver, then take the silver to us." ”
"That is, if you have this skill, you will take out the silver and give it to us."
Before Shopkeeper Li could reply, he happened to see Shopkeeper Yu gesturing at him.
He was slightly settled, and he was about to speak, wanting some people to take it first and stabilize people's hearts.
But before he could speak, Hao Jianzhang waved his hand faster than he could open his mouth.
"Don't worry, the envoy's subordinates will never let you lose a silver or two when they bring people in, but just let them see it to reassure people."
As the words fell, the city guards and the people had already poured in.
The thug guards didn't dare to do anything to the city guards.
Shopkeeper Li's head was sweating, and his eyes were a little black.
This sucks!
He stumbled after him, not knowing how much the shopkeeper had given, only hoping to get him through these crises.
Leng Xinghe also came over to find Gu Rongrong, and the two were watching the excitement in secret.
The door of the silver vault opened, and the city guards went in to check, and everyone watched at the door, and when they saw so many boxes, their anxious hearts finally stabilized.
However, in a moment, hope was shattered again.
"The box is empty."
"It's the same over here!"
"It's the same over here!"
The voices rang out one after another, and there were silver chests in the vault, but they were all empty!
The money bank is really out of money!
I don't know who shouted, and then fainted, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
Hao Jianzhang heard the movement outside, and brought people in, and when he saw this scene, he was also very angry.
"Come on, seal the storehouse and don't let anyone go in or out!"
Then he pointed to the shopkeeper Li: "Take him down to the envoy!" ”
Shopkeeper Li was also stunned, he knew that there was not much silver, but it was not like there was no box, besides, didn't the shopkeeper just gesture and said that he had sent some?
What's going on?
Pit him in the shopkeeper?
Damn it!
But his mind was chaotic at this time, and he couldn't argue, and Hao Jianzhang didn't have time to listen to him, so he even locked up and took away a few guys with his tent.
The front door was also sealed, and the people were crying outside and grabbing the ground, Hao Jianzhang persuaded him with good words, and said that he must interrogate the shopkeeper Li and ask him to explain the whereabouts of the money.
Gu Rongrong and Leng Xinghe left the same way.
Leng Xinghe said in a low voice: "It's strange, Zhu Pingsong sent silver, why don't you have a box?" ”
Gu Rongrong touched her nose: "Who knows?" Let's go, let's go see Old Man Lu first, have the secret guards been arranged? ”
"Don't worry, everything is arranged, they are keeping an eye on these two, and once there is a situation, they will report it."
Gu Rongrong glanced at the drunken fragrance building, and the shopkeeper had already hid in, and there was no one at the door.
It is estimated that he went in to discuss countermeasures with Zhu Pingsong.
Gu Rongrong said to Leng Xinghe: "The disappearance of Guanghui Qianzhuang's money must be related to Zuixianglou, they must be in a group, where the silver went, it is still unknown, but such a large amount of silver will not be traceless." ”
Leng Xinghe agreed: "After Hao Jianzhang is busy for a while, I will go to remind him and ask him to check the records of entering and leaving the city these days." ”
Gu Rongrong nodded, perhaps, Old Man Lu can also contribute.
Look, today is the credit of Old Man Lu, one push for grain prices, it caused such a big turmoil, and the secret relationship between the money village and the winery, as well as the underground passage, were all revealed.
That's what it's capable of.
Back at the Lu Mansion, Gu Rongrong went to see Old Man Lu.
It happened to be time to treat Old Man Lu again, and Gu Rongrong was treating him while talking to him about today's outside events.
Old Man Lu wrinkled his eyebrows, and the development of the situation was also beyond his expectations.
"What a big guts! Don't worry, girl, I will definitely send my men to check and see what is going on with the silver. ”
