Chapter 213: Prince! The warehouse was stolen
Du Wanwan lied calmly, "My space elf has no physical body, it is a soul."
Yetingxiao didn't dare to ask. He didn't know anything about elves and it was useless to ask.
Du Wanwan focused her attention on the eight boxes of different sizes. Although they were locked with exquisite copper locks, they did not pose any difficulty for her at all.
With a piece of copper wire in hand, you can solve any lock problem.
The locks fell off one by one, and the lids were opened one by one by Ye Tingxiao. Inside were neatly arranged gold ingots, silver ingots, and banknotes.
Three boxes contained gold ingots, three boxes contained silver ingots, and two smaller boxes contained silver bills. I picked up one and looked at it carefully. There was no wolfsbane or worm mark on it. It was just an ordinary silver bill.
"So much gold and silver?" Du Wanwan held her elbow with one hand and put her thumb under her chin with the other hand, her eyes full of surprise. "Why did he bring so much money to Liang County? What's his plan?"
Ye Tingxiao was also confused by the wealth in the box: "Yes! What is he trying to do? These things together are worth at least tens of millions of taels of silver.
What on earth did he want to do with so much money when he came to Liang County? As he was the owner of Baofeng Bank, he didn't need to bring any gold or silver with him, only silver bills.
Why did he bring gold and silver? What was his intention in bringing so many silver and gold ingots to the market?
Du Wanwan was also frowning and thinking about this question. After a moment, she looked at Ye Tingxiao, and Ye Tingxiao was looking at her.
Both of them showed excitement. Ye Tingxiao asked, "Wanwan! Do you think the same as I do? The King of Qi brought so much gold and silver this time. Is it for the blueprint of the automatic crossbow?"
"You guessed it too?" Du Wanwan patted Ye Tingxiao's arm gently, not daring to use force, "I guess that's it, seeking medical treatment is just an excuse for him to leave the capital.
Bringing so much gold and silver here is nothing more than hoping to use money to smash out what he wants. "
"You're right." Ye Tingxiao's eyes were filled with excitement. His Wanwan was really smart. She could actually understand him. "Piling up a lot of gold and silver in front of people's eyes makes it easier for people to be moved. The King of Qi is really wise. He wants to kill four birds with one stone by coming to Liangjun City.
Investigating silver ingots, interfering with my marriage, seeking medical treatment, and secretly buying crossbow manufacturing drawings. The first three things were incidental, and only the last one was the real purpose of his trip.
Now the silver that he guarded heavily is in our hands. I wonder if he will be so angry that he will vomit blood when he finds out."
Du Wanwan disagreed: "Let him spit it out, we don't care. Yaya! Take it."
As soon as she finished speaking, eight boxes of different sizes disappeared silently.
Ye Tingxiao, who was already used to it, carried Du Wanwan to the bed and said, "Go to sleep quickly. I'm leaving. This matter is very serious. I have to go back and discuss it with my father. The crossbow manufacturing diagram must not be leaked out casually."
"Well! Go ahead!"
Du Wanwan closed her eyes and waved to Ye Tingxiao. The room darkened and footsteps were heard going out. The door closed and a whoosh sounded as footsteps flew into the air. After that, there was no movement and all returned to silence.
As for the King of Qi, he had been extremely tired from the long journey by boat and carriage. After finally arriving at the inn and sleeping on the comfortable bed, he naturally fell asleep immediately.
At dawn the next day, the personal guard came to report: "Your Majesty! The storehouse was robbed."
"What?"
The King of Qi didn't even bother to put on his clothes. He sat up from the bed and ran out in his middle clothes. Those were things he brought with him and needed to use, so how could they be stolen?
On the first night after arriving in Liangjun City, his things disappeared. What should he do next? How can he negotiate terms with others without money?
Where is he going to get the manufacturing drawings of the crossbow?
This is what his mother wants. If he can't get it, he may not be able to get the position.
Yang Yurong never slept in the same room with the King of Qi, so naturally she didn't know what happened in the warehouse. The King of Qi never told her anything, and she had no right to know.
The three guards who were guarding the warehouse last night were already kneeling on the ground waiting for punishment. The door of the warehouse was open, and the old black demon was gone, along with the eight boxes of various sizes that he had brought.
The King of Qi entered the house and sat down on the ground. He looked at the empty house. His head was buzzing and he felt as if thousands of bees were circling around him.
The personal guard helped him up, with a look of sorrow on his face: "Your Highness! Take care of yourself."
The King of Qi stood up and waved his hand for the three guards on duty to come in and kneel before him.
His gaze seemed to be poisoned, and his tone was icy: "Tell me! What happened? Where is the Black Demon? Where did he go?"
The three guards looked at each other, not knowing how to start.
One said, "We don't know where Mr. Hei has gone."
Another said: "We were on duty last night and didn't notice anything unusual, then we suddenly smelled a fragrance and we all fell asleep."
The third said: "I didn't hear any noise, nor did I see Senior Hei chasing out."
They were drugged and unconscious, so how could they know that Ye Tingxiao was leading the Black Demon out.
What the three guards said added up to a bunch of nonsense, and they didn't provide any clues.
The King of Qi felt that he was asking a lonely question.
Aunt Hua on the rooftop looked at the livid King Qi and found it very interesting. She shouted a few times with gloating, "Don't get mad! My master hasn't had enough fun yet! Hang in there!"
The extremely angry King Qi looked up and saw a crow on the roof opposite him cawing. Yesterday, when he entered the city gate of Liangjun City, he also heard a crow cawing in front of him. He felt it was unlucky at that time.
Unexpectedly, something went wrong. The damn crow. The King of Qi raised his hand and commanded the three guards: "Whoever shoots down that annoying crow will make up for his mistake."
Aunt Hua jumped up and down: "What did you say? You want to knock me down? Did a donkey kick your head? I can fly! Come on! Come and hit me if you can. If you can't kill me, I'll kill you at night!"
The three guards naturally listened to Ouyang Qing's words. They all stood up and flew onto the opposite roof, attacking Aunt Hua.
Aunt Hua didn't fly either, she just jumped around. The three guards were eager to win, and none of them gave in. They all wanted to catch Aunt Hua and make up for their mistakes.
Aunt Hua, who had already gained some intelligence, walked the three guards like they were walking dogs, and soon they started attacking each other.
"Bang!"
One was kicked off the roof, fell to the ground, and was disqualified.
Not long after, another one rolled down with a "bang" and fell to the ground motionless.
There was only one person left on the roof, and he was determined to take it. Seeing Aunt Hua standing on the roof, he struck out with a palm.
He was still cursing, "You damn crow! Stand still and let me kill you. If you run again, I will not be polite to you. Let's see where you can run to. I don't believe I can't kill you."
