Chapter 41 The Jiang family discovers their secret stash is gone



She catches loaches and crabs, digs ditches to block water and catch fish and shrimp, not even letting the smallest shrimp escape...

Zhou Xiangqun had no choice but to return to the city ahead of schedule.

Let's not even mention it along the way.

He was holding a bucket of jumping fish the whole time, and there were two large burlap sacks of seafood in the back seat.

What's even worse is that she forcibly shoved her dog, Dahuang, into the trunk.

The car is about to explode.

The driver, Xiao Fang, silently shed tears several times.

He drives a respectable car, not a truck driver hauling goods.

Xu Manzhi didn't care.

She worked hard for a whole day and night, finally bringing back a bunch of treasures. When she got back to the Jiang family, she slaughtered them all, gutted what needed to be gutted, and dried what needed to be dried.

She has an almost obsessive passion for all kinds of dried meat products.

Stockpiling is satisfying.

Stockpiling is pleasurable.

Stockpiling makes you happy.

Her dried snakes piled up in a corner, and with the 100 chickens that Jiang Pengyue had promised last time, and another batch of swimming snakes, the whole event will be a grand spectacle of land, water and air.

Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Xu Manzhi was so busy she barely had time to breathe.

at the same time--

Under pressure from Jiang Mingda and Gu Meiyun, Jiang Hejun finally stopped making a fuss and reluctantly agreed to the marriage. However, he started to go crazy when the specifics of the wedding were mentioned.

Left with no other choice, Jiang Mingda decided to secretly give his eldest son some benefits and have him help him set up a new home. Once he saw the new home being built step by step, his son would be less resistant.

But as soon as he entered the abandoned courtyard, he saw that the brass lock on the door had fallen off, and he had a very bad feeling.

He walked into the courtyard step by step.

The gate is open!!!

Jiang Mingda's pupils contracted sharply, his whole body stiffened, and his heart almost stopped beating.

His calves felt weak, and his heels felt like they were filled with lead.

They dragged themselves into the house, one step at a time.

Whew.

He stood there, forcing himself to breathe.

No, no, that won't happen.

For so many years, the treasure has been hidden in this yard without any problems, and no one has paid special attention to it. Could it have been stolen?

Jiang Mingda touched the wall.

It's empty.

It's empty now.

He didn't believe it and went inside again. The table, was the table still there?

Jiang Mingda bent down to look.

Ah, ah~~~

A wave of dizziness washed over me.

The base is so thick, it's made of steel reinforcement inside.

They literally tore a huge hole in it.

Judging from the rounded hole, he even suspected that someone had poked it in with their finger!

How is that possible?

Ordinary people don't have that kind of strength; they're not gods or monsters.

Jiang Mingda felt an emptiness in his chest, as weak as a table.

With his last glimmer of hope, he rushed to the innermost bedroom.

fine.

The cabinet is still in the same place.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Mingda quickly ran to the corner, pressed the switch, and the cabinet began to move.

Little by little.

One more thing.

Splash!

A bucket of cold water was poured over my head, hitting me hard on the forehead. It was so cold it was nauseating, so cold it made me want to vomit.

Jiang Mingda broke his back.

My heart is numb.

My legs are shaking uncontrollably.

He couldn't even make a sound—

A bone-chilling cold compelled him to scream, to go mad, to... kill.

When Gu Meiyun and Jiang Pengyue arrived, they immediately embraced and wept bitterly.

The Jiang family has weathered many storms without suffering any devastation. Even in the darkest times, they stood firm and gradually amassed a great deal of wealth.

Heaven knows how much bloodshed the older generation, including the three sons of the Jiang family, went into building their empire.

It was gone in an instant.

How can this not be heartbreaking?

Jiang Pengyue cried, "Dad, these bandits must be a large group, otherwise how could they have moved all the valuables in such a short time without alerting anyone?"

These words enlightened Jiang Mingda.

He suddenly stood up, his eyes filled with hatred, and said fiercely, "Yes, that's right, I must investigate to the end. If I don't catch this gang of bandits and send them to the executioner's block, I'm not a Jiang!"

Jiang Hejun nodded repeatedly.

"Dad, let's postpone the wedding for now. Let's work together to catch the bad guys and make the thieves pay. Otherwise, how can we compete on the field?" he said.

Jiang Mingda sighed and reluctantly agreed.

Are there any other options?

The Jiang family seemed to be bound by an invisible force, with wave after wave of blows coming their way. Apart from their adopted daughter's marriage, which was somewhat satisfactory, there was no other happy event to speak of.

The Jiang family is on the verge of collapse.
