Fatty Lord Li patted his hand that almost strangled him to death, and Lord Xing let go of it.
After taking a deep breath, Fatty Li spoke again.
"Master Xing, His Majesty and his men are almost at Mount Mao. What should we do?"
When Lord Xing heard this, a serious look flashed across his face.
"Where's the Black Snake Man? Hasn't he succeeded yet?"
Fatty Li sighed and said helplessly.
"Don't mention that black snake. It's not reliable at all."
"The people I sent out searched all night but couldn't find any trace of him."
"I guess the black snake must have been scared and ran away a long time ago."
After the fat man finished speaking, he took a deep breath and continued.
"Oh, Lord Xing, now is not the time to worry about that black snake. Tell me, what should we do next?"
"If His Majesty discovers Maoshan's belongings, his family will be confiscated and his entire clan will be exterminated."
When Lord Xing heard this, he became a little impatient.
"Fatty Li, could you please be more calm and steady? We haven't been discovered yet."
How could Fatty Li remain calm? However, seeing the impatience on Lord Xing's face, he had no choice but to shut up.
After thinking for a moment, Lord Xing immediately called the housekeeper.
"Butler, send someone to tell Maoshan immediately that no more goods can be shipped out of Maoshan during this period."
When Fatty Li heard this, he became even more anxious.
"But sir, isn't it too late to inform now?"
Lord Xing was very angry, "It's too late to do anything, do you have any better ideas now?"
Fatty Li shut up immediately after hearing this, and Lord Xing was furious.
"Okay, don't stay here with me anymore, go find the black snake."
"Also, don't move the goods in the capital these days."
When Fatty Li heard this, he immediately got angry.
"Sir, how can this be possible? There are many businesses waiting for goods during this period."
Lord Xing snorted coldly.
"It has to be done. Although His Majesty is not in the capital, His Majesty's secret guards are not vegetarians either."
"If Maoshan finds out, we can still abandon Maoshan. At least we can save our lives."
"But if what happened in the capital is traced back to us, how many heads do you have left?"
Upon hearing this, Fatty Li dared not say anything more. Lord Xing felt inexplicably angry when he saw his body that was as fat as a pig.
Seeing this, the housekeeper hurriedly persuaded Fatty Li to leave.
"Master Li, you'd better do it quickly. It won't be good if you're late."
Fatty Li had no choice but to leave first.
Within half a day after Fatty Li left, many shops in the capital were closed.
After the shop closed, the people in the No. 1 Village in the World were the first to notice it.
In the evening, after everyone returned to the Ye family, Ye Sheng was the first to tell the story.
"Today, many ordinary movie theaters suddenly closed down. There must be something wrong."
Upon hearing this, Ye Chang immediately nodded in agreement.
"Recently, a lot of people have come to the bank to deposit loose silver, in varying amounts. I have a feeling there's something fishy about this silver."
After Ye Chang finished speaking, Wang Muxue also nodded.
"It's the same thing in Yaoguang Pavilion recently. Many ladies are using cash, which is very strange."
"Although the things in Yaoguang Pavilion aren't particularly priceless, all these ladies buy things with banknotes."
"But recently, there are always a few women who come with cash to buy things, and the amount is not small."
As Wang Muxue spoke, she took out a few ingots of silver from her sleeve.
"Dad, husband, look at this. I don't know why, but I always feel like there's something wrong with this silver."
Everyone took a silver ingot and looked at it carefully for a long time.
Ye Chang runs a money-lending business and is most sensitive to silver.
As soon as he got the silver ingot, he found that the weight was wrong.
"Hmm? This silver seems a little lighter than usual."
Ye Changyi said that everyone else also noticed it.
"Yes, judging by the appearance of this silver ingot, it should be a perfect ten taels of silver."
"But, weighing it in my hand, I estimate it's only about seven ounces."
After Ye Sheng finished speaking, Wang Muxue took out a string of copper coins from her sleeve.
"Everyone, take a look at these copper coins."
Each person took a few copper coins and held them lightly in their hands.
Everyone looked at each other, with a flash of surprise in their eyes.
"Could it be that this is fake silver, someone privately forged the coin?"
This conclusion shocked everyone, especially Ye Chang.
Since becoming a manager, Ye Chang has rarely come into contact with cash.
Most of the time, he just needs to check the ledger.
But now, when he saw the silver that his wife took out, which was much lighter in weight, he suddenly felt panic in his heart.
"I have something to do at the bank, so you don't have to wait for me for dinner tonight."
After Ye Chang finished speaking, he didn't bother to say goodbye to everyone and hurried out.
Wang Muxue's face also didn't look very good.
"Brother, the book club has had quite a bit of cash going in and out recently. You should go back and take a look."
Ye Fan nodded and said goodbye to everyone.
After the two left, Wang Muxue also stood up.
"Dad, Mom, Yaoguang Pavilion has received a lot of this kind of money recently. I have to go back and figure it out."
After Wang Muxue finished speaking, she took Qiaoqiao and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Li Jingjing immediately called out to her.
"Third sister-in-law, I have nothing to do at home, so I'll go with you to take a look. It will be more helpful if we have more people."
Wang Muxue did not refuse. Yaoguang Pavilion now has a lot of income every day, and she must stop the loss in time.
