Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 30 Only 5000 Taels

He Liu asked again: "Ding Wang confessed that he has more than 500 million taels of cash in his hand. Where is this silver hidden? He has hundreds of commercial firms, shops, and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River. There should be some ledger?"

He Liu knew that the emperor would definitely ask Jin Yiwei to search Ding Wang's family property - at that time, he, the Jin Yi family copying official, would definitely be called in.If someone can assassinate Ding Wang in the imperial prison, it is possible to assassinate Zhou Zigao.While Zhou Zigao was still alive, he had to ask Zhou Zigao for all relevant clues.

Zhou Zigao said: "Ding Wang is very strict with his mouth. However, he has a problem, he is greedy for drinking - and the amount is shallow. He drank too much last winter and told me that his cash was not stored in the bank. Instead, he hid it in an extremely secret place. Together with more than 500 million taels of cash, there are also all the house deeds and land deeds of his commercial firms, shops, and fertile land in Jiangnan; the detailed accounts of blackmailing and bribing officials .”

"The five million taels of silver are hidden in one place?" He Liu was stunned.

He Liu thought: If five million taels of silver were piled up together, it would be as high as a mountain!There are also house deeds, land deeds, and accounts worth 500 million taels. . .Not surprisingly, "Baiguan Xinglu" should be put together with Ding Wang's property.

Lu Bing ordered: "Detain Zhou Zigao. Jin Laosan, Zhou Zigao will be handed over to you this week! If he makes any mistakes in the imperial prison, come see me!"

Jin Wanguan said: "Yes!"

Zhou Zigao was escorted back to his cell.Lu Bingdao: "There are two gates now. One is to find Ding Wang's family property. The other is to find the "Hundred Officials' Records". In fact, these two things are originally one thing. "Hundred Officials' Records" put together! Sixth, you are the family confiscator of Jinyiwei. Naturally, you should be responsible for this matter. The case has already reached the sky, and you are alone. The other twelve eunuchs, you To assist He Liu."

"Yes!"

Lu Bing said: "Okay, let's do it!"

Lu Bing walked out of the lobby.

He Er, the governor of Nansi, said in a strange way: "Oh, Lao Liu has such a big face. Our twelve eunuchs, from today onwards, will look up to Lao Liu!"

In Jinyiwei, it is well known that the South and North Town Fusi are at odds.

He Liu is from Beizhen Fusi.Commander Lu entrusted him with such a big matter, which would naturally cause He Er, the leader of Nanzhen Fusi, to be dissatisfied.

Beisi Governor Liu Da and He Er confronted each other: "He Zhenfu's words are wrong. What do you mean by looking forward to the old six? We are actually looking forward to Commander Lu and the emperor! No matter how big the case is, it is not the emperor. , Commander Lu confessed it? Our thirteen Taibaos are all the same, and they all work for the emperor and Commander Lu. The sixth child is an expert in searching for family property. There is nothing wrong with the 12 of us helping the sixth child."

He Erdao: "Yes, yes, Governor Liu always uses the word 'reason' in his speech. Tell me, Lao Liu, how can we help you?"

He Liudao: "Now we only know that Ding Wang hid his family's wealth in one place. But we don't have any clues. For the current plan, we can only look for clues to this treasure first."

He Er smiled and said, "Lao Liu, it's as if you didn't say what you said. Check for clues? How to check? Where to check?"

He Liu thought for a while and replied: "Search Ding Wang's house again. Last time I went to search his house to crack the 'book secret'. That time, things happened in a hurry, so I only copied his house. There are thousands of books in the collection, but the house has not been copied."

"Okay. Then let's get up and go to Ding Wang's house!" He Er said.

The [-]th Taibao in Jinyi came to Ding Wang's house with three or four hundred warriors and captains.

He Liu please take out the innocence box, take out the floor listener and the wall tiger, and check Ding Wang's house inside and out carefully.

The wrestlers found twelve chairs and placed them in the middle of the yard.The other twelve eunuchs were all sitting in the yard.

Liu Da said: "Oh, I really haven't seen Lao Liu ransacking the house with my own eyes. His method of raiding the house is indeed very interesting."

He Er said: "Our thirteen eunuchs each have their own strengths. For example, the third is proficient in interrogation, the fourth is proficient in firearms, and the seventh is good at inquiring about news. The eighth has a good memory and is the living file of our Jinyiwei. The tenth Once he knows a thousand tricks, he can also decipher secret words. The old twelve is good at using torture. The old thirteen is world-class in martial arts, and he is the most capable of fighting among the thirteen of us... The sixth one, who earns his living by ransacking homes. Naturally, he has a trick The method of plagiarism."

He Liu and Lao Hu are "scraping the ground" in the wing room.Lao Hu tapped the floor tiles a few times, and He Liu suddenly heard a "buzz" from the ground.

He Liu said to Lao Hu: "There is a hidden space!"

After speaking, he took out a dagger and pried up a floor tile.I saw a dark compartment under the floor tiles, and in the dark compartment, there were piles of white money.

He Liu walked out of the house and said, "Five warriors, bring money!"

Liu Da's eyes lit up: "Have you found the money?"

He Liu nodded: "I found some. But—it should only be a few thousand taels."

Five wrestlers moved the silver to the courtyard.Liu Dayi counted and was very disappointed: "Lao Liu, there are only 5000 taels of silver! It is far from 500 million taels!"

He Liudao: "My subordinates guess that this little money is just for emergency use at home by Ding Wang."

Liu Da comforted He Liu again: "Anyway, I finally found the silver. Don't worry, keep looking."

He Liu and Lao Hu spent a whole day searching Ding Wang's house—unfortunately, they found nothing except the 5000 taels of silver.

As the sun set, He Er, the governor of Nansi, yawned: "It's getting late. I think we should rest today. Let the wrestlers seal off this courtyard, and we will search again tomorrow."

He Liudao: "Commissioner He Zhen, forgive me for speaking bluntly. If we come back tomorrow, we won't be able to find anything! This house is beyond copying."

He Er tilted his head: "Lao Liu, what do you mean, the clues to Ding Wang's property are broken?"

He Liu nodded: "Yes."

He Er sneered: "Oh, there is no clue, let's still handle a Mao case?"

Liu Dawei spoke to He Liu: "Ms. He Zhenfu, the clues will never be in front of us. If there are no clues, just look for them. Lao Liu is not a god, how can he say that he will find the clues if he finds them?"

Elder Eleven Li Zipian suddenly asked He Liu: "Brother Six, last time you copied more than 1000 books from Ding Wang's house in order to decipher the book secrets on the banknotes. Now the books are still with me. The pile is full. The books have been deciphered. What to do with those books? Burn them?"

Li Zipian's words reminded He Liu: Book?Those books were copied to Li Zipian's valet, and he directly found out the "Tea Classic", and the books other than the "Tea Classic" have not been carefully checked yet!
He Liudao: "There may be some clues hidden in those books. I'll take someone to your room tonight to check those books overnight."
