Chapter 346
This was also the main reason why Zhao Mu strongly supported his son to take the scientific examination. Even if his daughter married the prince, the Zhao family would still be a businessman and would still be looked down upon by those real wealthy nobles.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Mu got up immediately, "Wait a minute."

Zhao Mu's study room is divided into inner and outer rooms, where the father and son talk in the outer room, and Zhao Mu enters the inner room.

Because all his banknotes were hidden in the hidden compartment in the inner room, but when Zhao Mu opened the hidden drawer to take out the banknotes, he found that all the banknotes were gone, and only some important ones were left inside. Land deed and deed, Zhao Mu suddenly screamed and fell to the ground, Zhao Jinshu hurriedly walked and asked, "What's wrong with father? What happened?"

Zhao Mu took a breath, ignoring the pain in his body and shouted, "Quick, Jin Shu, help Wei father up, the house has been burglarized!"

Zhao Jinshu suddenly looked ugly to the naked eye. He walked into the inner room quickly, and saw that the picture of famous mountain residences hanging on the inner wall of his father's study had been removed, revealing a box that was one foot long and half a foot high. Dad fell to the ground, looking at him with pain in his face.

Zhao Jinshu walked over and helped his father up, "Father, how are you doing? My son, shall I call you a doctor first?"

How could Zhao Mu be in the mood to look at the doctor now? Normally, he rarely moves this secret compartment, because he will not be short of silver in his hands at ordinary times, and if he has a large amount of income, he will exchange it for gold and hide it... …

Thinking of this, Zhao Mu suddenly slapped his thigh: "It's broken, prepare the carriage!"

What he is most afraid of now is that the person who stole the banknotes has already checked him out. Not only did he steal the banknotes at home, he also found out the secret of the second courtyard. If something happened there, he... He didn't dare to think about it...

Zhao Jinwen also knew that now was not the time to get to the bottom of it, so he helped Zhao Mu to a chair and sat down, and immediately arranged for someone to prepare the car.

Two quarters of an hour later, Zhao's carriage arrived in Wuyi Lane. The old couple guarding the gate did not expect the master to rush over at this time, so they quickly opened the gate, and watched the carriage drive into the courtyard. He got out of the car and went straight to the backyard, and then ordered someone to open the well cover. He stepped on the ladder and went down the well. Zhao Jinwen watched the whole process. !"

Then there was a bang...

After a period of panic, Zhao Mu was finally moved to the well, Zhao Jinshu crushed his father's people, and Zhao Mu finally woke up.

"Father, what do you plan to do today?"

Zhao Jinshu didn't need to ask to know that this was where his father hid his family's wealth, but he went down just now, and the big underground cave is now empty, and it seems that all the things inside have been stolen at some time.

When Zhao Mu thought of his stolen property, he almost hiccupped and hiccupped. He can't find out the big things, but if it is reported to the officials, once the news of the theft gets out, the Zhao family will be pushed to the forefront. No one knows which of his opponents will take advantage of the chaos and make him never Turn over the day.

"Go, go to Huguo Temple to deliver a letter, ask the third prince to help, and secretly find out who is dealing with our Zhao family. Dealing with the Zhao family is dealing with the third prince. He will definitely take care of it.

In addition, you secretly sent people to investigate in Beijing. Recently, someone has shipped a large number of goods. Once there is news, I don't believe that nothing can be found out! "

Gold, jade and jewelry worth more than 2000 million taels, even if they are wasted every day, it is impossible to spend them so quickly, and it is impossible for people who steal things to keep things in their hands without selling them. That would be meaningless.

Although there is a lot of gold hidden in the well, the most valuable are jewelry and jade ornaments. They can spend the gold directly, but jewelry and jade ornaments cannot.

"No, you can go to the Huguo Temple yourself and ask the third prince if there is anyone in the imperial guards. I thought about it for my father. It is impossible for so many things to be stolen together without making a fuss. Every day in Beijing With the guards patrolling, maybe we can find out some clues, and also, bring the couple who are guarding the gate back to the mansion for a proper interrogation!"

After giving these instructions, Zhao Mu couldn't hold on any longer, his upper eyelid drooped, his head tilted, and he passed out again while still lying on the ground.

……

No matter how cruel Zhao Jinwen was, he still told his father what he had ordered, and he rode straight to Huguo Temple.

The third prince has nothing to do in the temple except for daily martial arts and meals and occasional chanting of scriptures. He was surprised when he heard Zhao Jinwen came to look for him at first, but it was only for a moment, and someone took Zhao Jinwen away Come in.

As soon as he entered, Zhao Jinwen cupped his hands and saluted without wiping off the sweat on his face, "I've seen the third prince."

The third prince said: "Why do we brothers use so many vain courtesy, sit down first, don't you have some urgent business when you come here today?"

His cousin, who only cares about reading on weekdays, ignores everything else. It is definitely a new thing to come to him alone.

Zhao Jinwen said: "Father asked me to come to you. The family was burglarized, and the amount was too large to report to the officials. I want to ask the third prince if he has any contacts in the Imperial Guard. Father wants to check privately."

The teacup in Sanhuang's hand shook, and a few drops of tea splashed out.

"How much is too large?"

Zhao Jinwen didn't intend to hide it, and directly stated the amount, "The silver bill is more than 70 taels, the gold is about 50 taels, and the rest are all jewelry and jade, and the total value is about 2000 million taels!"

The cup in the third prince's hand finally couldn't bear the pressure and shattered with a "click".

Li Liangfu was quickly called into the meditation room of the third prince. After listening to the whole incident, Li Liangfu said that his mentality had collapsed. If his property of more than 2000 million taels was stolen, can he get it back?

"It's impossible for one or two people to steal so much gold, silver and jewelry. There must be a large number of people acting at the same time. Does Mr. Zhao know what difficult people your father has offended recently?"

Zhao Jinwen frowned and said: "I usually don't care much about my father's business affairs, I really don't know if he offended someone, and according to my father's temperament, if the other party is really difficult, he won't offend him. "

Li Liangfu nodded. This is normal. Businessmen are the ones who are the best at weighing the pros and cons. It's not that they won't offend those who shouldn't be offended.

"If the Zhao family didn't offend anyone, then the Zhao family is likely to be targeted by some powerful force. Now that Xirong and Beiliang are fighting against Daxing, money is needed to fight the war. Your Zhao family is the richest man in the capital. After doing this vote, I won’t have to worry about lack of money after fighting for two years.”
