The bandits knew that the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau was coming, and they came to Huang Ling's family because they came for the Huang family's many years of savings.
Knowing that the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau was just outside the town, the boss showed no mercy at all.
Huang Lingquan originally wanted to cry poverty and delay, but after paying the price of an ear, he finally understood.
The boss is really murderous.
Although gold is important, it is not as important as life!
Before the headmaster was about to cut off his nose, Huang Lingquan finally couldn't bear it anymore. He pointed at the altar table in the main room and shouted: "There is a secret compartment behind the statue, and all the gold is hidden there!"
The bandits ran over, kicked over the altar table, and tore off the idols attached to the wall. Sure enough, they found that the gap in one brick was obviously larger than the other bricks.
Pull out the brick, and there will be a cavity behind it, with a wooden box in the cavity.
The little guy stepped forward and pulled it, but found that he couldn't pull it with one hand.
“Looks like it’s in stock!”
I rubbed my hands together excitedly, worked hard with both hands, and finally pulled out the wooden box.
Bang!
The little boy put the wooden box on the stool, making a dull and loud noise.
Opening the box, there are stacks of small gold bricks inside, with a stack of land deeds underneath the gold bricks.
"Oh ho!"
Many bandits cheered excitedly.
The Zhenyuan Escort Bureau is in the process of allocating land to local tyrants. The land deeds are definitely useless, but this box of gold bricks alone has already satisfied the bandits!
"Where is the money?" The boss once again put the machete on Huang Lingquan's neck.
"There is no silver!" Huang Lingquan cried and said: "Master, you also know that the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau is coming. It is inconvenient to bring silver with you. I have already changed it to gold... By the way, there are still several hundred taels in the warehouse.
If the master doesn’t dislike it, I’ll give it to you, including silver and a cart full of copper coins!”
"You don't need to send it, grandpa has already taken it away!"
The boss sneered and motioned for his subordinates to lift the small box.
Walking to the yard, a young man caught up with the big boss and whispered: "Big boss, after so many years of saving, the Huang family must have more than this. Huang Lingquan is dishonest and must be hiding somewhere else!"
"Of course I know, but we don't have time!"
The boss said hurriedly: "The Zhenyuan Escort Agency is almost at the door. Inform the brothers to bring their things and go into the mountain quickly!"
In the room, Huang Lingquan watched the bandits leave, feeling hurt, anxious and angry.
"Liang, please wait for me!"
Huang Lingquan gritted his teeth and shouted to the back room: "Why are you still sitting around? Go call the doctor!"
The concubine came out of the back room shivering and ran towards the door.
As soon as the concubine left, the housekeeper ran in anxiously.
"Ah Fu, you are here just in time. Send someone to the county immediately to tell Mr. Xu that Liang Chong has rebelled. Let him lead the government soldiers to encircle and suppress him. In addition, notify Gouzi and ask them to cooperate with the government soldiers!"
Huang Lingquan dared to cooperate with the bandits, so he was naturally prepared.
He and the county lieutenant in charge of the government soldiers had already discussed it. Once the bandits got out of control, the county lieutenant would immediately lead the government soldiers to encircle and suppress them. Huang Lingquan's spies planted among the bandits would be responsible for responding to the government soldiers.
After the war, the two families shared the bandits' savings equally.
"Master, leave Liang Chong alone, the Zhenyuan Escort Agency is here!"
The steward stamped his foot and said.
"What did you say?" Huang Lingquan was startled: "The Zhenyuan Escort Agency entered the boundary of the river?"
"It's not in the river, it's outside the town!"
The butler said and pointed to the door.
Huang Lingquan walked to the door and saw two huge airships floating in the sky at first sight.
"how so?"
Huang Lingquan's eyes widened: "When did they come?"
"At daybreak!" said the steward, "Master, what shall we do?"
"What else can I do? Pack up your things and run away!"
Huang Lingquan no longer cared about waiting for the doctor, and anxiously ordered: "Go and ask your son to prepare the boat. We will cross the Yellow River to the Central Plains immediately!"
The housekeeper agreed and ran out.
When the housekeeper left, Huang Lingquan turned around and rushed into the back room.
He kicked Gong Tong away, then he didn't mind it being dirty, groped around on the ground twice, and dug out a rope end from the cracks in the floor tiles.
Pulling along the rope, several bricks on the ground were pulled up, revealing a pit.www.八一zw.????m
There was also a wooden box buried in the pit, which was larger than the one the bandits had pulled out from behind the statue.
The wooden box containing the gold was very heavy, and Huang Lingquan couldn't pull it out even after pulling it several times.
Just as he stuck out his butt and continued to exert force, the butler's voice came from behind him: "Master, may I help you?"
Huang Lingquan jumped up as if he was electrocuted, then turned around and looked behind him.
I don't know when the housekeeper came back and brought his three sons with him.
A flash of anger flashed in Huang Lingquan's eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.
He understood that there were many butlers, and if they were forced to do so, he would definitely be the one to suffer in the end!
He patted the dirt on his hands and looked indifferent: "Afu, you guys are here just in time. Quickly pull out the box for me! This is the savings of my ancestors for decades. With this box, I will take you with me
You can drink and eat meat just like you go to the Central Plains!"
The housekeeper nodded, and the eldest son walked over and pulled out the wooden box with force.
The wooden box looked old and had mold on the outside.
"Sir, do you really know how to place it and don't mind it being dirty?"
The housekeeper covered his nose and said.
Dakang didn't have the habit of using an indoor bathroom yet. He was afraid of the cold at night and didn't want to leave the house, so he used the spittoon for convenience.
The wooden box had been buried under the spittoon for many years, and inevitably got a strong smell of urine.
However, the housekeeper's eldest son didn't mind it and smashed the lock on the wooden box directly.
Opening the box, there were also neatly stacked stacks of gold bricks inside, but the number was obviously much greater than in the box just now!
Moreover, the color of the gold bricks in this box is a little dark, obviously it has been stored for a long time.
"Don't look at it, it's all real gold!"
Huang Lingquan urged: "Let's leave quickly, otherwise it will be too late!"
"No, if we leave, Mr. Huang should stay!" the butler said, shaking his head.
"Afu, you want to leave me?"
Huang Lingquan said angrily: "Don't forget who brought you back when you almost froze to death, gave you food and clothes, and don't forget who paid you to marry a wife?!"
"If you hadn't robbed my family's land, why would my father and mother die? How could I almost starve to death?"
The butler suddenly became excited: "I have been working as a cow and a horse for you for so many years. When did you ever look at me?"
"Dad, why are you telling him so much?"
The eldest son of the housekeeper closed the wooden box: "Second brother, chop him down quickly, and let's leave quickly!"
"You want to kill me?" Huang Lingquan was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said: "Ah Fu, just take the gold, I don't want it anymore. You can leave quickly. If you delay for a while, the people from the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau will come..."
Before he finished speaking, a sneer came from the door:
