Chapter 124 The Stolen Silver Showdown

Chapter 124 Showdown with stolen silver (Part [-])
Yang Maoxi stammered and spoke on the phone, and Shen Chuxia understood that he came to Beijing this time to find her. He had already searched around the pier and alley they knew a year ago, but he did not expect to meet her here. .

"I'm still thinking about when I can meet the nobleman." He kept rubbing his hands in embarrassment.

Shen Chuxia has nothing else to do, she can't see people living hard, "Uncle, where is your boat parked?"

Yang Maoxi dodged his eyes, as if it was difficult to answer.

"If you don't tell me where, how can I help you?"

He had no choice but to say, "It's... outside the gate."

"Have you entered Beijing yet?" Shen Chuxia was surprised and strange, "Now the gates follow the formal procedures, as long as you pay taxes, you can enter the gates, and no one will confiscate your things."

"I... I married my son a wife, but I don't... have no money."

Not even a few hundred cash for tolls?Shen Chuxia just sighed with emotion, but had no doubts. Many people in the ancient low class bartered, and some of them really didn't have a few pennies in their pockets.

She took out a silver coin from her sleeve pocket, "Or two boats?"

"Yes, but..." Yang Maoxi reluctantly reached out to take it.

"It's okay, when your ship comes in, I'll sell the porcelain for you, and you can give me more commission."

"Okay, okay." Yang Maoxi said many good things in a row, but he didn't know how to thank you, "Then... how can I find you then?"

Shen Chuxia thought for a while, "How about this, you park the boat at the pier of the North Moat, the Tongtai Inn over there is someone I know, if you look for him then, he will tell you where I am."

"Okay, thank you nobleman." Yang Maoxi thanked you again, wishing to confess your nobleman.

"Then go get busy first." At noon, Shen Chuxia wanted to invite him to dinner, but seeing his tense appearance, forget it, it's better not to make people uncomfortable.

Standing in the crowd, Yang Maoxi held a dime of silver, stared at the distant figure for a long time, and heaved a long sigh when he turned around.

Just about to find a simple small restaurant for lunch, Shen Chuxia was stopped again, "Brother Shen..."

"Little rabbit?" She turned around quickly.

The little rabbit looked around vigilantly, and whispered to her ear, "Except for your two girls, there are two palace guards in the crowd, there is no one else."

Shen Chuxia raised her eyebrows, "You want to dump the two hidden guards?"

She never knew how many people Ji Chong had sent to protect her, and Old Han Tuo really helped to inquire about Men Qing.

The little rabbit forced a smile, "Old Uncle Tuo said, if he got the silver, he only needs 5 taels for revenge, and the rest will be handed over to the regent."

"It's useless for me to persuade you?" Shen Chuxia frowned, can old Han Tuo get past Ji Chong?

Little Rabbit nodded.

"You're looking for me..."

"Yin Zi has a clue."

"where is it?"

"Crossing the gate."

Shen Chuxia raised his eyes and looked into the distance. In fact, the ancient river gates not only had the functions of releasing floods and blocking water and collecting taxes, but also had the function of collecting private interests similar to modern customs.

"They've arrived at the gate, what else can you do?" Shen Chuxia was puzzled.

The little rabbit laughed, "How could they really pass the gate."

"Change from waterway to land transportation?"

"Yes." said the little rabbit, "this is our chance."

Shen Chuxia had always wanted to see how many people old Hantuo had. This time, she and Little Rabbit left the middle of Beijing and went to a small town near the gate in the southern suburbs of Beijing.

Zhang Shuran didn't expect Uncle Daguo to come to her, and couldn't even utter a word of excitement, "You...you're here!"

"Old rules."

"Okay." She hurriedly arranged the best tea and snacks in the best private room, and led the people in personally.
