Chapter 070 Night Pearl
60 boxes were all carried into the carriage. Lin Zimo, who was in a good mood, returned triumphantly with this big mountain thief's treasure. Before he came out, several of his confidants knew how it happened, and others were blinded by the court's confiscation of ill-gotten wealth. Lin Zimo did not choose to enter the city in the daytime. After all, it was too ostentatious. I led everyone to spend the night in the wild and then continued on the road. In this world, he doesn't believe that there are still thieves who can threaten him.
At dawn, Lin Zimo, who was not in a hurry, chose to enter the city at the moment before the gate closed, in order to avoid complicated eyes. A group of people filed into Guiping City and stopped at the gate of the government office. Then a group of people moved 60 boxes full of gold, silver, jewelry and antique calligraphy and paintings into the flower hall in the back hall.
Before leaving, Lin Zimo told Yang Mengqi where she was going, so that she did not worry too much. In addition, he took Yang Yu with him, which made her 100% believe that her husband did not do dangerous things, but did go out for a walk. Yang Mengqi, who saw them come back safely, wanted to take good care of his man, for fear that he would leave a little wound on his body and leave future problems if he was not treated in time. The deeper she loves, the more she cares about her husband. Even if it is a trivial matter, Yang Mengqi will look like the sky is about to collapse.
In the flower hall, dozens of candles were lit, making the candlelight brighten the whole room. Only Lin Zimo, Zhao Wenxuan and Yang Mengqi stayed in the room. Since she came in unintentionally, let her participate. Lin Zimo, who did not intend to carry his wife behind his back, believed that the husband and wife were heart to heart. At the same time, I trust her more that her mouth is extremely strict and will never be revealed. Lin Zimo will transfer these things to her to take care of. After all, he knows that Yang Mengqi is good at financial management.
Before the assignment, Lin Zimo ordered Wang Qiang and Gao Xiang to lead all the members of the Wolf Tooth Guard to control all the passages into the flower hall and not allow unrelated personnel to approach. Even Yang Yu and Ji Xiaojuan can't get in. Although I carried the box back, I still had to share the stolen goods with Zhao Wenxuan. After all, the contents of each box were mixed together. He knew that his adopter-in-law didn't care about more or less, but worried about Ye Changmeng and the wind. Therefore, I want to finish the matter completely as soon as possible.
The lids of 60 boxes were all knocked, and Lin Zimo said calmly, "I'm sorry to pick out all the antique calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and jade. As for the gold and silver ingots, you leave them for Wenxuan to take away. You can divide it as you want. Don't be fine, it's fine. I don't care about these things, and Wen Xuan doesn't care either.
Immediately, Zhao Wenxuan said directly and sincerely, "What my brother said, so I annoyed my sister-in-law to suffer a little."
Yang Mengqi, who knew that this was the plan to divide the stolen goods, did not express any opinion, so he started. Lin Zimo and Zhao Wenxuan, sitting on the chair, did not pay attention to this pile of property at all, but talked about other things. In this way, the two big men handed over the "dough work and tiring work" to a little woman to complete.
Yang Mengqi, who has ink in his chest, naturally prefers those artistic objects. As for the yellow and white things, she still feels quite tacky. Yang Mengqi would never believe that her guild had done something harmful, so that she did not ask the origin of these things, but only completed her own errands. In the process of picking, she occasionally got a good product, so she couldn't help admiring it carefully.
Lin Zimo did not urge her, and his attention was all in the conversation with Zhao Wenxuan. The two brothers are analyzing the current situation. It is said that the remnants of the rebels have appeared in the area of Gui County, Xunzhou Prefecture. Although the news is not accurate enough, they all know that there is no wind and no waves. This rebel belongs to one of the four rebels, so it cannot be underestimated.
Lin Zimo, who was thoughtful, did not want to lead troops out of the city to fight in the field, but was willing to use the inherent fortifications and said, "What are the chances of winning against the rebels head-on with our strength?"
Zhao Wenxuan, who has relevant combat experience in this area, said truthfully: "With the main strength of our 3,000 officers and soldiers, there is no big problem if we face them in front of the field war. There is no problem in defeating training and being as armed as our rebels. However, defeat is not a problem, but the problem lies in annihilation. After all, this kind of encirclement day after day, year after year is not only endless, but also wastes people and money. Today, you destroyed some of him, and after a while, he recovered, which was very troublesome. This kind of killing, the biggest loss is still the people of our Ming Dynasty.
"If you capture the thief, then capture the king first." Lin Zimo, who nodded and recognized his brother-in-law's analysis, said with a serious look, "If you want the people to truly enjoy peace, the eradication of thieves is one aspect, and the other most important aspect is that they should rest and recuperate with the people. The clever search for people's fat and ointment is the real source of the continuous extermination of the rebels.
Seeing that there was no outsider Zhao Wenxuan, he added bluntly and boldly: "If there are no war for some generals in our Ming army, there will be no chance to be promoted and make a fortune, so there are all kinds of strange things. As for the tricks, I needless to say, my brother should also know. This situation of cutting grass without rooting and blowing the spring breeze began in the early Ming Dynasty. Even if the court sends 160,000 troops to conquer this time, it may not be able to reverse this embarrassing situation from the root. My Ming Dynasty is a eventful time, and it seems that it has been worse year by year. As a result of continuing this situation, I'm afraid..."
Although he didn't say the last words, Lin Zimo already understood. Both brothers understand that if the world is in chaos, the people who suffer the most are still the people. In order to maintain a certain situation, Lin Zimo will not consider loyalty, but is determined to love the people. Only by enduring the pain and cutting off this "cancer" that is about to spread for the Ming Dynasty can we ensure that the vast majority of the people of Lebanon will not be affected and implicated, otherwise the bloody and bloody situation will eventually happen.
Lin Zimo, who knows the mystery, increasingly feels that his time travel is not for no reason, but as if he is pushed behind his back by an invisible hand: "Although our official position is humble, as long as you and my brothers work together, we can certainly realize our personal ambitions while saving all the people. . I don't ask for a name in history, but I want to have a clear conscience.
At dawn, Yang Mengqi completed his task. She didn't feel tired at all, and she was in a good spirit. She likes calligraphy and painting, and she found one or two works she admires, which makes her brain always in a stage of excitement. She roughly counted the income of her father-in-law and Zhao Wenxuan, and felt that they had taken advantage of it.
"Fir, the slave family has finished the inventory. According to the will of the father-in-law, we will occupy 70% or 80% of the appearance, and the converted silver into cash will not be less than 500,000 taels. Among them, several calligraphy and paintings, antiques and jewelry are treasures and are absolutely valuable. These treasures alone are enough to stand for more than half of the shares. Yang Mengqi did not take advantage of it and said that he had suffered losses. He picked up a treasure and said, "This night pearl is big and round, and its color is extremely positive, and it is roughly estimated to be in the number of gold."
"My wife is suffering." Lin Zimo said generously, "For my brother, I have taken advantage of the wise brother, so the night pearl will belong to you. If Wenxuan still has a favorite object, he can choose it at will. There is no need to be polite between you and me."
Yang Mengqi brought the night pearl in his hand to the middle of the two. The beads are shiny, the light is not dim, and the color is dark green, with a diameter of ten centimeters. At this moment, 100% of the pearl is the magic work of nature, not a synthetic product. This kind of diluted treasure is accessible but not sought.
"It's really a good thing." Lin Zimo took it from her hand and played with it carefully. Without any reluctance, he handed it to Zhao Wenxuan's hand and said with a smile, "It's yours."
Zhao Wenxuan, who took it in his hand and appreciated it well, suddenly stood up, handed it out with beads in his hands, and sincerely said, "Wenxuan has never given his sister-in-law any meeting gift. He has the right to borrow this bead to present the Buddha."
Yang Mengqi, who seems embarrassed, can't accept it or not. After all, his father-in-law has sent a message to him. She knew that Zhao Wenxuan had no other meaning, but the reason why she didn't accept it was to abide by the distribution agreement between Lin Zimo and herself. Yang Mengqi is a man who knows a lot about this kind of saliva. He is absolutely a word and difficult to catch up with.
"I am a rough man who marches and fights. If it is really inappropriate to bring this thing around me, I will lose it for a moment. Good things are definitely the most appropriate to stay in the hands of those who will appreciate them. Zhao Wenxuan, who turned to face his adoptive brother, said, "Wenxuan understands the kindness of his brother. It's better not to put this bead with me.
Lin Zimo, who stood up slowly, knew his character and looked at his wife and said, "Since Wenxuan gave it to you, you can accept it. If we really push back and there like this, we will have a split.
Yang Mengqi, who was no longer polite, bent his knees to express his gratitude, and then held his hands into a bowl, about ten centimeters below Zhao Wenxuan's hands. He saw that his sister-in-law was ready. As soon as his hands were separated, Ye Mingzhu naturally fell into her hands. Lin Zimo shook his head and saw the obedience of the two of them who could not have skin relatives. For the Nth time, he determined that feudal etiquette was really harmful.
