Chapter 160 Inquiring for Information
Yue Fuli was not familiar with the mountains and forests near the capital, but fortunately the address was marked on the map, so it was not difficult to find.
With the map in hand, Yue Fuli quickly found the place. Rather than calling it a mountain forest, it would be more appropriate to call it a bamboo forest, as there were more bamboos than trees in this place.
Yue Fuli walked around the forest and quickly locked onto the location of the buried object shown on the map.
It was next to a bamboo grove and was easy to find. However, without a map, no one would have thought that something was buried near this clump of bamboo.
Yue Fuli looked around and made sure it was safe before he started digging. The thing was buried quite deep, so Yue Fuli took some effort to dig it out.
It was a small square iron box with a big lock hanging on the outside.
For Yue Fuli, it was not difficult to open the lock.
She just pinched the lock lightly with her hand and broke it.
After the lock on the box was opened, Yue Fuli entered the space with her belongings. Thinking of the man who had died in the space and had not yet been dealt with, Yue Fuli decided to do a good deed.
She brought the man out and buried him in the pit where the box had just been dug.
After burying the body, Yue Fuli returned to the space and opened the box. In addition to some gold, silver and jewelry, there was also a thin booklet hidden in the box.
Picking up the booklet, Yue Fuli couldn't wait to read it.
This is an account book that records some of the things done by men, and the name mentioned most often is a woman's.
The woman's name was Xiuzhen. Yue Fuli guessed that this Xiuzhen was most likely the woman in Luo Ming's backyard.
We need to find out more about whether it is true or not.
With this account book, Yue Fuli was basically certain that the man was working for the woman named Xiuzhen.
I just don’t know who is standing behind that woman named Xiuzhen?
It was late at night, and Yue Fuli had no plans to go out again. Instead, she stayed in the space for the night, planning to go into the city early the next morning to inquire about the woman of Luo Ming.
The next day, Yue Fuli went into the city at dawn. After entering the city, she waited in an alley not far from the Luo Mansion, intending to wait for the maids and servants who came out to buy things.
After waiting for a while, Yue Fuli saw two old women coming out of the side door and heading towards the vegetable market.
Yue Fuli followed behind the two of them and bumped into them carelessly. Before they could get angry, she took out a silver ingot to apologize and picked up the portrait that had fallen to the ground.
Seeing Yue Fuli's generosity, the two maids were immediately overjoyed. They looked at him with a smile and said, "Sir, how can you be so embarrassed?"
"Please accept it, Madams. I didn't see the road clearly and bumped into you. If you don't accept it, I will feel bad."
The two hesitated for a moment, really reluctant to part with the silver they had earned, so they smiled and replied, "Since you say so, I'll take the silver. I don't know where you're going in such a hurry, but if there's anything we can help you with, just let me know."
"Madams, I do have something to trouble you with. How about this, in order not to delay your shopping, we can talk while we walk?"
Upon hearing this, the two of them became happy. They were just worried about delaying the purchase, but they didn't expect that the young man in front of them would be so sensible. This was really great.
