Chapter 87 Wow, is this a treasure trove in a deserted house?

Siming asked Adjutant Qi to stop the car on the side of the road and got out with the two children.

The people in the car behind also got off.

"General, why don't we go in and take a look first? It's pitch dark here and we don't know what's inside." Adjutant Qi felt scared when he looked at the house.

Siming looked at the two children, then at the weeds that were twice as tall as them: "Take your men in, and be careful."

Adjutant Qi nodded and walked in with his men, flashlights on.

The people around heard the noise outside and stuck their heads out to see, only to see soldiers outside. They were so scared that they closed the door.

No one dared to look over here again.

Adjutant Qi and his men walked slowly towards the house, holding a flashlight in one hand and a pistol in the other.

"Ouch!"

"ah!"

Several screams were heard from the house. Si Ming handed the two children to Old Madam Si and walked in.

I saw several people fall to the ground and get up from the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

"What's going on?"

"I wasn't paying attention and was tripped by something." Adjutant Qi said as he held the culprit that tripped him.

But after he picked it up, the dazzling golden light made him lose his mind for a moment.

"This, is this gold?" He looked up at Siming who was standing there with some uncertainty.

Another soldier also took a box and opened it, and saw that it was full of jewelry.

They were stunned for a moment.

He quickly stood up and shone the flashlight towards the surrounding grass.

Wow, is this a treasure trove in a deserted house?

Gold, silver, jewelry and antiques were scattered everywhere.

Just as they were about to shout excitedly, they were stopped by Sima Ming's cold look.

Several people wanted to shout but couldn't, so they could only raise their hands and hit each other's arms to relieve their joy.

Adjutant Qi calmed down, checked the things here and found something wrong.

He walked up to Siming and whispered, "General, could these things have been lost by the Liu family?"

"Did the Liu family lose something? How come I didn't know about it?" Siming looked at him with confusion.

Adjutant Qi understood immediately: "Maybe I heard it wrong. What should we do with these things?"

"Take all the antiques back and store them in a safe warehouse. These things cannot be lost."

"Move the gold bars back to the Governor's Mansion, and as for these jewelry, divide them among the brothers!" Siming was a very generous person.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief." Adjutant Qi had a smile on his face as he directed his brothers to work.

Juanjuan heard the shouts of Adjutant Qi and the others, and her little head was still wondering what had happened.

As a result, my father went in and didn't come out for a long time.

When she saw Siming coming out, she immediately called out, "Dad."

Siming walked towards her and bent down to look at the two children: "There really is a treasure in there, Juanjuan is awesome!"

Juanjuan smiled and said, "Can I buy some meat then?"

Siming didn’t quite understand what the child meant. Didn’t the family buy meat recently?

That’s not right. Didn’t we have meat at home yesterday?

"You can eat now. Eat as much as you want." Si Tian smiled and pinched her little face.

Old Madam Si then told her about how Si Tian had teased her.

"No wonder this girl insisted on looking for treasure." Si Ming glanced at Si Tian.

Si Tian shrugged helplessly, saying that he didn't know whether this girl would take it seriously.

"Okay, let's go home. Aunt Wu should have prepared something delicious for us." Si Ming reached out and took the hands of the two children and got into the car.

Just leave the rest to Adjutant Qi and the others.

He was not afraid that someone would hide these things secretly, because if they were caught, they would be shot.

We came back late today, and Juanjuan and Si Jinchen were already hungry, so they ate more than usual.

Wu Ma felt a sense of satisfaction when she saw them eating with hearty mouthfuls.

The young lady and the young master are not picky about food and are really easy to feed.

The lights in the Governor's Mansion were on all night today. Adjutant Qi and his men delivered a lot of large boxes in the middle of the night, and each one was quite heavy.

When Siming and the others opened the big boxes, they saw that they were full of yellow croakers of all sizes.

"The Liu family is really good at hiding their wealth. They appear to have no money, but they secretly hide so much money."

"Brother, this is not just a few dozen big yellow croakers." Si Tian was also surprised.

Madam Si looked at the large yellow croakers in the box and said, "There's no need to be so surprised. When he first came to Ah Ming to buy medicine, he was able to take out two hundred large yellow croakers at once, which showed that his family was quite wealthy."

"Otherwise, they are just two juniors, and two hundred large yellow croakers is not a small number."

Adjutant Qi held up the account book and said, "We found hundreds of antiques, calligraphy, and paintings in the house this time. Their value is probably far greater than these boxes of yellow croaker."

"In addition, we received various kinds of jewelry, and there are two large boxes like this. If each of the brothers below can choose one, there will be some left."

"I've brought the rest."

Si Tian: "This emptied my family's wealth, but I didn't expect to make money back. It's a pleasant surprise."

"It's just right that this money can be kept to see if we can buy some medicine." Siming looked at the yellow croaker in the box.

If you really use it, the money is not worth it.

Today, a good shop charges several thousand dollars, and a worse one charges several hundred dollars, which is easily the price of a few large yellow croakers.

Fortunately, the Liu family does not have the most shops, otherwise even if they emptied their family savings, they might not be able to buy so many shops.

Madam Si asked, "Is there still no news from the Western medicine department?"

"There is no news yet. Communications are cut off in many places now. It will be difficult to contact them for a while." Si Tian tried to contact them for a long time but there was no news.

"There are people selling it on the black market, but the price is several times higher than usual," said Adjutant Qi.

Siming hesitated for a moment: "How much does he want?"

"He wants a small yellow croaker for penicillin, and one silver dollar for a bottle of other antipyretics and painkillers." Adjutant Qi repeated the news.

"Brother, this price is too high. The normal supply price of a tube of penicillin is four silver dollars. Now the price has increased by who knows how many times."

"Besides, the other medicines aren't that expensive at all. If we really want to buy the medicines he has, there won't be enough in this box."

Si Tian felt horrified just thinking about it. The price of this Western medicine was really outrageous.

"He probably knows that Beiyang City is short of Western medicine, so he asked for such a high price." Siming understood this man's purpose very well.

People in the black market are not necessarily involved in the underworld, so it is not certain that Miao Jiu can find out the information.

"Tomorrow, go find Weng Jin and ask him to tell you what medicines are most urgently needed. If that doesn't work, you'll have to buy some from him first. We can talk about the rest later."

Siming would not refuse to buy these medicines just because of the high prices. When you really need medicines to save your life, the most difficult thing is not having them.

I just hope I can contact other suppliers as soon as possible and resolve the drug issue.
