Chapter 1558 The whereabouts of millions of gold coins
Chapter 1562 The whereabouts of millions of gold coins
While the recruitment of troops was in full swing, Jiang Yue and Han Jingjing, who were lurking in the Five Elements Academy, also detected the latest information.
The Grand Scholar of the Jade Cauldron from the Titan Academy actually came to the Five Elements Academy in person to urge the goods. Moreover, the degree of desire and urgency of the Titan Academy for these rough stones was completely beyond imagination.
I don’t know who spread the rumor, but Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron actually paid out of his own pocket to get the Five Elements Academy to agree to ship the goods, and to expedite the shipment.
According to this statement, the earlier delegation from Titan Academy had actually reached an agreement with Five Elements Academy and even paid the money.
However, the Five Elements Academy said it had not received the money, but the Titan Academy insisted on paying it.
With no evidence to prove, Grand Master Yuding suffered a loss and spent his own money to resolve the disagreement and allow the transaction to continue.
Jiang Yue and the others speculated that these rumors were definitely not spread by the Five Elements Academy. They must have been revealed by Yuding University because of their low morale.
Others don't know the inside story, but Jiang Yue and the others naturally know.
He and Han Jingjing killed the representatives of Titan Academy. One of them did have a huge amount of transaction money, and it was true that millions of gold coins were in a storage bracelet.
It's just that these are now in their hands.
In other words, Titan Academy did lose the money, but Five Elements Academy did not get the money. But judging from the current situation, Grand Scholar Yuding, on behalf of Titan Academy, believed that the money was from Five Elements Academy.
Swallow it, otherwise this news would not be released.
This news was released clearly to relieve anger and let public opinion condemn the greed of Five Elements Academy.
Of course, if we really want to investigate, the Titan Academy will definitely not admit it, and it is impossible to admit that the news was released by them.
The Five Elements Academy is all about making money, and rumors and such are not important at all. In the territory of the Five Elements Academy, no matter how much you spread rumors, the final right of interpretation is not in the hands of the Five Elements Academy.
Sure enough, the Five Elements Academy soon expressed in a coquettish manner that they were very guilty for what happened to the Titan Academy, and would also give some consolation money to the three representatives of the Titan Academy.
But as for the transaction gold, the Five Elements Academy conducted multiple investigations, as well as the witnesses on the scene and the academy warriors who rushed to the scene as soon as possible, and found no so-called storage bracelets and transaction gold.
If this storage bracelet really exists, it was probably taken away by the attacker. After all, this attack may have been aimed at their money. Being robbed makes sense.
.
This statement undoubtedly tells the whole world that our Five Elements Academy conducts business in a disciplined manner and does not make unscrupulous money, but we will never be taken advantage of or suffer the consequences of being dumb.
In view of the fact that the Five Elements Academy has always had a good business reputation, although the things sold are expensive, the quality of the rough stones is indeed good, and the business reputation is also good, and there is absolutely no bad situation of missing a pound or deducting the card.
In contrast, most forces are satisfied with doing business with Five Elements Academy. This also makes it difficult for Titan Academy to splash dirty water successfully.
However, with such back and forth, the business relationship established between Titan Academy and Five Elements Academy will definitely be greatly compromised.
And Titan Academy obviously has a backup plan. The matter of the missing million transaction funds will definitely continue to be explained in the future.
If your Five Elements Academy doesn't find out the real culprit, the matter won't be over for a day.
After the public opinion spread for a long time, it slowly subsided after the Five Elements Academy's statement. Everyone was shocked by the sky-high price of one million gold coins, and they also speculated. According to this statement, this storage bracelet may have been attacked.
It may be taken away by someone else, but it may also be lost among the people, or even fall into the hands of passers-by at the time. It is also possible for those warriors from the Five Elements Academy who rushed to the scene as soon as possible.
For a time, there was a craze for searching for storage bracelets in the Five Elements Academy. Many people were privately inquiring about the information, and even conducted various investigations, trying to find clues.
However, many days have passed since the incident, and the scene at that time cannot be restored. There are various versions of the story, and ordinary people can't tell which one is true and which one is false.
But this does not affect their enthusiasm for treasure hunting at all.
After all, this is one million gold coins, not silver coins, but gold coins.
In terms of silver coins, this is a full 100 million silver coins. When piled up, it is enough to bury hundreds of people.
Not to mention ordinary people, even the top beings in the inner earth world cannot remain indifferent to one million gold coins.
This is a wealth that ordinary people cannot achieve in ten lifetimes. Even a person on the second level of the pyramid, such as a Grand Master with a Golden Ribbon, will probably not be able to afford millions of gold coins in cash.
I am afraid that only a bachelor with a purple gold ribbon can possess such wealth and strength.
Such wealth is enough to make everyone go crazy. Even the adventurers who are dormant in the dark, avoiding being recruited by the surface battlefield, are no longer reserved, and they don't know where to come from, but they are also
Join in.
It's as if the fly smelled something special.
The area around the Five Elements Academy, which was not particularly lively at first, suddenly had an influx of at least tens of thousands of people.
Of course, the Five Elements Academy recruitment order also contributed to this.
The Awakeneds thought that even if they couldn't find these millions of gold coins, it would still be good to see if the recruitment order from the Five Elements Academy was true or false.
What if the Five Elements Academy is not looking for cannon fodder this time, but is really sincere? Maybe you can give it a try. If you really want to gain an identity in the Five Elements Academy, it will definitely be a matter of honoring your ancestors.
After all, the Three University Palaces have recruited people from the private sector in the past, but never on such a large scale. In the past, people were usually recruited from the private sector when a hole appeared and no one could find anyone to fill it. And the conditions for recruitment were
Very harsh.
This is definitely the first time for recruitment on such a large scale and with such good treatment.
This recruitment order does not look like recruiting cannon fodder. In the words of Five Elements Academy, it is recruiting like-minded partners to work together for a great cause, regardless of each other.
The Five Elements Academy also specially used the original Bachelor of Water Engineering as an example and publicized it vigorously. They talked about how the Bachelor of Water Engineering was promoted by the Five Elements Academy and how good the treatment was at the Five Elements Academy.
The current situation is difficult, and the Five Elements Academy hopes to create more hydraulic engineering bachelors and accept more grassroots warriors.
And as long as you join the Five Elements Academy, you will be a member of the Academy family and you will be treated equally.
Even though he knew it was a polite word, but he said it so politely, it was obviously much more sincere than in the past.
Of course, no matter how attractive the recruitment order is, it is still not as attractive as a million gold coins.
In the streets and alleys, in wine shops and teahouses, almost every place with people was discussing where the one million gold coins had gone.
More conspiracy theories still believe that the money should have been picked up by lucky people passing by. This is definitely a windfall.
There are also rational people who believe that the money must have been robbed by the attackers. They came here for millions of gold coins. It must be the exposure of the Titan Academy's money that led to the death.
Otherwise, why was there such a big fire and people only attacked the three of them? Isn't this obvious? This is seeking money and killing people.
However, there is obviously not much market for this kind of speculation.
People who eat melons still prefer to believe that the million gold coins fell into the hands of passers-by. Only in this way can this statement become legendary and can satisfy more people's fantasies.
If it was picked up by a passer-by, this person is most likely a native of this area. Of course, outsiders are not excluded, but there are not many outsiders recently, and even adventurers rarely appear.
So, although the scope of the investigation is a bit like finding a needle in a haystack, it is not completely without some direction of investigation.
Coupled with various rumors in the market, especially the consumers of some shops adjacent to the big inn where the fire broke out, they are undoubtedly the main suspects.
Of course, the residents of the big inn and the clerks were also suspects. When they fled for their lives, these people were the first to flee.
There are a lot of rumors going around.
The Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron, who was still staying in the Five Elements Academy, naturally heard these rumors. He was naturally very angry about this.
The majestic Titan Academy has become someone else's fodder. It is being discussed and evaluated by these rough guys in the market. It can be said that it has lost all face.
If he didn't have to stay here to supervise the shipment from Five Elements Academy, he wouldn't want to stay in this ghost place for a second.
That night, when Grand Scholar Yuding was preparing to take a rest, one of his subordinates reported that there was someone outside asking to see him.
Grand Bachelor Jade Cauldron's first reaction was that he was an assassin or that there was some conspiracy.
But his subordinates said that the other party claimed to be a deacon of the Five Elements Academy and had secrets that interested Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron, which might involve the million gold coins.
Upon hearing this news, Grand Bachelor Yuding could not refuse.
"Let him in."
Although the interview was in secret, and the other party was just a small deacon, Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron did not dare to take it lightly in someone else's territory.
These days, it is nothing new for the Grand Master with the Purple Gold Ribbon to die in the inner earth world. He does not want to become one of these tragic jokes.
Therefore, caution is necessary.
But this time, his caution was a bit too much. After this person came in, the Jade Cauldron Grand Scholar felt the mediocrity in this person. Even if the Jade Cauldron Grand Scholar stood there and let the other party attack, he could not do anything to him.
That kind of.
"The villain Gang Guo, I have met Lord Yuding." This man's strength is mediocre, but he still has the most basic etiquette, and he seems to have a good psychological quality.
Although it was obvious to the naked eye that he was worried and frightened, it was remarkable that he could remain so calm in front of the Grand Master with the Purple Gold Ribbon.
"You are the deacon of the Five Elements Academy. You came to see me in the middle of the night. I guess it's not some official business, right?"
Naturally, it is not the turn of a mere deacon to come over for official business. If he really wants to send a small deacon to invite him, it would be too rude for the Five Elements Academy.
"Your Majesty has a keen eye, and this villain is indeed not here for business. But this trip is also for business."
"Oh? How do you say this?" Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron thought about the other party's words and could not figure out the other party's motives for a while.
This guy named Gang Guo probably knows his status and can't let it slip.
"The night your representative had the accident, I was patrolling in that area, and I rushed to one of the scenes as soon as possible. At that time, I led a team of twelve members."
Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron said calmly: "So, what exactly happened that night?"
Gangguo said: "I can swear that we protected the scene at that time and no one did anything to the body. And, according to my recollection, I did not see any storage bracelets."
Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron said coldly: "Are you here to defend the Five Elements Academy? No need to do so. I have already made up for this money from my own pocket."
"No, no, no, that's not what I mean."
"What is that?" Grand Bachelor Jade Cauldron's tone became more serious. In the middle of the night, this was not what he wanted to hear.
"Originally, the villain thought that this matter was over. The investigation and questioning procedures had all been completed. But today, eight of the twelve members of my team have lost contact. And today, I also clearly feel that I have been
Someone is targeting us. I feel like someone is targeting us."
Yuding University's morale was extremely high and he laughed: "What? Do you still expect me to protect your safety? If you don't ask Shenguang for this kind of thing, why would you ask me?"
There are at least hundreds of versions in the market about the whereabouts of the one million gold coins. It is completely normal for someone to look for these people who appeared at the first scene. Interests are alluring, and wealth is alluring.
The Five Elements Academy did not stop this matter from fermenting, obviously they wanted to use this to prove their innocence.
However, in the view of Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron, this is most likely the result of Five Elements Academy creating its own momentum and deliberately doing this to confuse the public.
Naturally, Grand Scholar Yuding has no interest in these tunes.
Gang Guo hesitated for a moment, then said: "Master Yuding, what if, what if the disappearance of my men has nothing to do with the rumors? What if someone deliberately kills people to silence them?"
"As far as I know, many of the first-time witnesses at that time have died inexplicably in recent days. I estimate that in a few days, there will be no more survivors. I have an intuition that this is to kill people and silence them.
, rather than some random event.”
"Kill someone and silence them?" Grand Scholar Jade Cauldron's eyes moved as he stared at Gang Guo: "What on earth do you want to say? Who wants to kill someone and silence someone?"
"Of course he is the one who benefits."
The Grand Master of Jade Cauldron was moved: "Are you talking about the Five Elements Academy?"
Gang Guo did not speak, but expressed his attitude through silence.
"Haha..." Grand Bachelor Jade Cauldron calmed down, "Are you really from the Five Elements Academy? Are you an impostor here to sow discord?"
"I have been working at Five Elements Academy for seven or eight years. I worked as a bachelor of hydraulic engineering before and was somewhat famous. This can be confirmed with a little investigation."
"In this case, are you eating the inside out?"
"No, I'm just protecting myself. I don't want to become another one who disappears for no reason..."
