When Bai Cha said that the money was in Jiangnan, County Magistrate Gao frowned.
Could it be that all the money you got just flew away like that?
No, absolutely not!
He rolled his eyes and said, "In this case, you first take out the Ye family's few hundred taels, and we will deal with the emergency first, and we will discuss the rest slowly."
When Bai Cha heard this, he cried even more:
"I...I was afraid that the relatives in the clan would ask my father for money, and my father couldn't shirk it, so I asked my girl Gu Yu to send most of the family's money to Jiangnan.
It just happened a few days ago. If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to check it out.
Now the family has only a few hundred thousand taels of silver available..."
Magistrate Gao's face twisted for a moment.
Hundreds of thousands of taels!
She actually quietly transported millions of taels of silver to Jiangnan!
All this money belongs to him!
This prodigal woman...
Gao Chunlin took a deep breath and tried not to curse out loud:
"Let's do this, take out as much as you have first, and I'll try my best to hold it for you. As for you, ask someone to go to Jiangnan to get the money back as soon as possible."
Bai Cha shook his head: "No."
Gao Chunlin was furious: "What's wrong?"
"Back then...my brother and I were afraid that our family had too much money and would be remembered by others.
So, we established a rule. If you want to withdraw the money from the Jiangnan warehouse, you need me or my father and brother to come forward.
Otherwise, no matter who it is, they will never hand over the key."
Gao Chunlin felt like he couldn't breathe.
"Then you go!"
We can’t let these two hundred million dollars fly away!
And with Ye Shu and Ye Yuan in his hands, he didn't even dare to run away from Bai Cha!
Bai Cha raised his head and revealed his true purpose: "But I can't worry about my father and brother.
I carefully arranged the food, clothing, housing and transportation for my father and brother at home, and they never compromised even when they were away from home.
But the prison didn't even have a place to stay, and it was dirty, smelly, and full of rats.
My father and brother have delicate bodies, if something bad happens...
Besides, when I went to Jiangnan, there was no one to take care of the business at home. The shopkeepers were full of bad intentions. Knowing that such a big thing happened at home, they would definitely want to make money again.
When I come back, I still don’t know what the business in Yancheng will be like.”
Bai Cha wiped her tears with a handkerchief as she spoke.
Gao Chunlin was upset by her crying, and probably understood the implication of Bai Cha's words, so he sighed with difficulty:
"In this way, I will arrange a yard for your father and brother, and arrange a few plainclothes officers to guard it, so that they can manage the Ye family's shop. What do you think?"
Bai Cha's goal was achieved, and he hurriedly burst into tears and smiled: "Then I'll trouble you, sir. I'll leave for Jiangnan right away to get the money."
Gao Chunlin nodded with satisfaction.
Before leaving, Bai Cha took advantage of Gao Chunlin's lack of attention and took the letters on the table with him.
…
After returning to the house, he took the baggage he had packed last night and exchanged a few words with the housekeeper alone. Bai Cha, wearing a coir raincoat and bamboo hat, left Yancheng on horseback in the hazy mist and rain.
[Host, are you taking the wrong route? This is the direction to Kyoto, not the official road to Jiangnan?] 996 looked confused.
"Who said I'm going to Jiangnan?" Bai Cha lowered his bamboo hat to prevent the wind and rain from falling on his face.
[But aren’t you going to Jiangnan to get money to save Brother Ye and Father Ye? 】
Bai Cha chuckled.
125, who hates iron but cannot make steel, knocked on 996's forehead: [Fuck you?
How could the host give that bastard so much money?
Did the strong wind bring you the money to be a host?】
【Then what is the host going to do?】
125 looked at the innocent-looking 996: [You can’t even tell this, why don’t you go to Beijing to complain!]
996 was stunned for a second, and then suddenly realized: [I understand, host, the reason why the host said that Jiangnan has so much money is because he wants to use money to catch Gao Chunlin.
Let him know that only by not hurting Uncle Ye and Brother Ye can it be profitable.
At the same time, it gave him the illusion that there was a hostage in his hands and the host would not do anything wrong.
Then the host can go to Beijing to complain openly and openly!]
996 placed it affectionately on Bai Cha’s face: [Host, you are so smart~~]
125 looked at 996 with a sour look and muttered in a low voice: [Isn’t nest smart?]
996 blink: [But you didn’t come up with the solution~]
125’s little claws pulled 996’s cheeks and pinched them hard: [You heartless little thing, I’ll ignore you!]
After saying that, 125 escaped into the system space.
996 covered his swollen cheeks pinched by 125, with tears in his eyes: [Host, it hurts~~]
Bai Cha couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Then go pinch it back."
996 sat on Bai Cha's collarbone, holding the skirt of Bai Cha's clothes with his little hands, crying: "You can't hit, it will break..."
Bai Cha gave a playful and complicated look and said nothing more.
The journey of more than ten days was compressed by Bai Cha into ten days. The journey was windy and rainy, and Bai Cha had to change three horses during this period.
Entering the capital city, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the sight in front of me was almost obscured by the wind and rain, and the speed of the horse beneath me also slowed down.
Far away from Baicha, I saw a boy and a child standing in the lotus pond by the road, pushing a cart.
It was a very simple carriage, and I don’t know how it managed to be able to rush into the lotus pond...
In addition, this area is in the suburbs and there are no people at all. Naturally, the two children can only push the car out by themselves.
The two children are not very old, and the older one only looks about thirteen or fourteen.
The younger one is even younger, looking only five or six years old.
Both of them were soaked by the rain, especially the little one, who was shivering with cold and dirty, but still trying to help push the cart.
He tilted his head and looked at the boy next to him, and his voice was uniquely innocent for a child: "Brother, come on!
We're going to push the carriage out right away!"
Bai Cha tightened the reins in his hands when he heard the child's trembling voice.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier. There is no village or shop here. If the two children are allowed to continue to push the cart in the rain here, they will definitely get sick.
In ancient times, medical conditions were poor, and even a cold could kill someone.
Taking out the spare raincoat and bamboo hat, Bai Cha turned over and dismounted.
First, he took out the white tea from the lotus pond and put the bag over his head. Then he handed the raincoat to the young man: "The rain is getting heavier and heavier. The lotus pond is full of mud. It's impossible for you two to push the carriage up."
Yes, come up first.”
The young man took the coir raincoat from Bai Cha and hurriedly put it on: "Thank you, sister."
Bai Cha untied the horses on the cart: "I'll take you to find a place to stay in front first. When the rain stops, it won't be too late to find a few people to come back and push the cart."
The young man nodded.
In fact, they just don't have rain gear, and there is no village or shop here. If they want to go back as soon as possible, they can only push the cart.
Bai Cha took out a piece of dry clothes from the accompanying baggage and put it on the little one: "You will sit in my sister's arms later and wrap yourself in a raincoat. Do you understand?"
After wiping the child's muddy face, Bai Cha realized that the child looked so much like Wen Yuzhu who had shrunk a few sizes.
However, his eyes are very different from Wen Yuzhu's. Wen Yuzhu's eyes are gentle, powerful and tolerant.
This child had big almond-shaped eyes, very bright and innocent. Bai Cha couldn't help but pinched his soft cheeks.
The boy next to him also wiped his face clean and looked handsome.
As soon as he put the child on the horse, a luxurious carriage passed by. The lady in the car opened the curtain and saw the boy and the child in Bai Cha's arms. She hurriedly said: "Coachman, stop for a moment."
