Yan Cigui Chapter 61

Chapter 61 Two large copper boxes

 Lao Shi Alley is in full swing.

 After the cartloads of earth and materials were brought out, Gao An stood at the entrance of the alley, directing his men.

 “Be careful, be careful, don't get in the way of other people's business.”

"The wind is strong today, so the cloth on the cart should be covered more tightly to prevent it from blowing ashes everywhere."

At the corner, an old man leaned on a cane and asked: "Dong Gao's house, didn't you say that it was almost cleaned up a few days ago? Why are there still so many. Please be careful, the old man has a bad throat. He coughs."

"Originally, it's almost done," Gao An shielded the old man from the wind. "There are several houses with poor foundations. I thought it would be better to strengthen one of them. I might as well do it all, so I can build a house without worries."

“That's right,” the old man nodded. “Then you work harder. If it doesn't work, just sprinkle some water on it. Don't let the gray old man bear it.”

Gao An was in a hurry to respond.

 After seeing the old man off, his eyes glanced at the corner not far away.

 He had already noticed the two familiar faces.

 The words I just said were addressed to the people nearby as well as to those two people.

Regardless of whether the two owners are looking for treasure or not, they have to strengthen the foundation. Then the people must know that renting a house in the coming year will have good feng shui and good quality.

At the same time, create a fascination circle for those two sly-eyed things, making them think that reinforcement is the purpose.

 After the news was released, Gao An took action.

A few strong men received the order and blocked the corner in an instant. The people inside had no time to react before they were lifted in front of Gao An.

"What are you doing? What have we done? Why are you still arresting people?"

Gao An glared and put on a fierce look: "I've been staring at you for several days. It seems like you are not a good person at first glance."

 “Hey? How did you talk? Did I choose what I look like?”

"Stop talking nonsense," Gao An waved his hand, "If you have anything to say, go to the Yamen and tell it."

The two people were dumbfounded.

 Why do you still need to go to the Yamen?

 They are not doing well yet!

Seeing that the two of them were struggling, Gao An said again: "Come to the Yamen with me, tie them up and throw them on the cart and push them to the Yamen. Choose one by yourself."

Knowing they couldn't escape, the two men exchanged glances and chose the first one.

  As for the latter one, just think about it and you will know how embarrassing it is.

 Shuntianfuli.

Hao Tongpan had been busy for almost a day. He beat his sore and swollen arms. When he heard from the clerk that Gao An had escorted two people, he hurried out.

“What's going on? Are you stealing or robbing? Is there anything else that a thief can like in Lao Shi Alley?”

Gao An bowed and said: "The villains don't know what they are looking at. They poke their heads at the entrance of the alley every day. At first glance, they have no good intentions. They don't know what they are planning."

Hao Tongping said "ah".

He was escorted just like that. Should he say that the high-security precautions were very thorough?

“Brother Gao,” he patted Gao An on the shoulder and whispered, “It's not that I'm shirk. It's because they didn't take action. Even when Master Shan comes, we can't take them into custody.”

Gao An took Hao Tongpan two steps to the side.

He was originally a businessman and had a sharp tongue. Although Liao Zi only said to send him to the Yamen when conveying his masters' opinions, he still thought about some words.

"In Laoshi Lane, the Jingdong family is the main one and the villain is the assistant. Now that the Jingdong family is not in the capital, how can the villain be more alert? If something happens, there is no way to explain it to the Jingdong family," Gao An said with a worried expression. , "As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you. What if they really want to cause damage in Lao Shi Alley?

The previous fire caused a lot of criticism in Shuntian Mansion. Seeing that Jingdong's family took over, the Yamen also compensated the people who were affected by the disaster. As long as the new alley is repaired, you will not only feel proud, but at least you will not have to worry about it anymore. Worry about that mess.

But if it's because of these two guys with ulterior motives that something bad happened..."

Hao Tongpan listened.

 A few days ago, he sent out the last payment of compensation, bound the received documents into a volume, and gave them to Shan Fuyin for review. Mr. Shan was really happy at the time and said, "At least it will give them money to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival happily" and "When Lao Shi Alley is repaired, I will go and have a look"...

Hao Tongpan turned his head and squinted his eyes to look at the two people carefully.

With his ghostly head and grimace, it looks like he has been doing a lot of things like rat-stealing and dog-stealing!

Hao Tongpan went to find Shan Shen.

Shan Shen came with his master.

 The killing stick and the gavel will definitely not be used, but Shan Shen himself would not be at ease if he didn't ask a few questions.

“What's your name, where are you from, and what are you doing outside Lao Shi Alley?”

Although he did not kneel in the court, Shan Shen's official uniform still gave the two men a great intimidation.

 “Youngest Wangsi, this is Wangsan, the younger ones are brothers.”

“They are all from Jingli. I used to live in Lao Shi Lane. I just went to see them clean up. I really didn't do anything bad.”

Shan Shen snorted coldly: "You despise me and regard me as a faint-hearted official? What were the names of every household in Laoshi Lane at that time? Who escaped and who was killed? I know it all by heart! It has nothing to do with you two!" "

“L-live in Liuli Hutong,” Wang San shrank his neck, “I wanted to find a job in Lao Shi Alley to earn some money, so I hung out there…”

"Bah! Who dares to hire you to work after wandering around all day?" Shan Shen cursed and let it go.

 After all, these two people have not committed any crime yet.

Before letting people go, Shan Shen threatened: "If anything happens in Lao Shi Alley in the future, I will ask you only!"

With this on the surface, Shan Fuyin returned to the inner hall, found an astute yamen servant, and said: "Follow me and find out what they are going to do in Lao Shi Alley!"

The third and fourth Wangs ran for three streets before stopping after leaving the Yamen.

The two brothers supported each other, gasping for air, and scolded Gao An so hard that their trip to the Yamen was in vain.

 Even if you don't have to face a ban, it is not a good thing to see an official.

 Poor luck!

  Unlucky!

The two people who were cursing didn't notice that there were two officers in civilian clothes not far behind them staring at them.

Of course, none of these four people knew that the person across the street who was staring at them expressionlessly biting a candied haws on a candied haws, was none other than Xuan Su.

The sugar coating crunched in his mouth. Xuan Su looked at the Wang brothers and then at the official officer.

 It seems that the Duke of the country has really predicted this.

As long as the Gao Dong family takes people to the Yamen, Master Shan will definitely remember them.

 This is the "life of hard work".

If all the officials were such people, the people would be much more at ease.

 On the other side, Gao An returned to Lao Shi Alley.

Knowing that something would be excavated, he personally supervised the work and selected three groups of trustworthy people to start digging three houses at a time. The remaining people would load the trucks, carry them, and fill in the soil to consolidate the previously dug foundations. Not idle after all.

Gao An promised to pay more for the temporarily added process and worked on it overnight.

　　At half past midnight, Gao An, who was tired after drinking strong tea, was called to a place. He looked at the foundation where a hole had been dug, and his throat rolled.

 In the cave, there are two large copper boxes.

 This must be the treasure the princess wants!

The big treasure has been dug out~

　　　　Thanks to book friends Xu Bicheng's official girlfriend, Trina, and Update Devil for their rewards.
