"Steal?" Ye Qingzhou was inexplicably excited when he saw this word.
"Yes, since we can't find anything openly, we'll investigate secretly. With our skills, this dyeing workshop is nothing." Li Wenyan said confidently, "Remember, two things: first, find out where those things are, and second... take out their ill-gotten gains and distribute them to the people."
"The reputation of our Nine Qingyun Sons will surely spread throughout Xuanzhou!"
Under the candlelight, everyone's face is filled with longing for the future.
"Yes, sir! Big brother!"
That night, more than half of the Nine Sons of Qingyun went out. According to the original plot, this time they would investigate those banned psychedelic medicinal materials and further infer the motives of Wanbao Pavilion.
By the way, Lin Wanqing will poison Yue'e.
But this time there were not so many things to do. Their actions went very smoothly, and there was not even a single person on guard in the dyeing workshop.
But the sudden lighting of the torches and shouting really scared the teenagers.
They thought about the other party suddenly attacking from the dark, and also thought about the use of a tight net, but they chose the most simple and unpretentious shouting.
"There's a thief! There's a thief!"
Late at night, the sound of catching a thief could be heard from far away.
"We're not thieves! You bad guys from Wanbao Pavilion!" Lin Wanqing was very angry and even took off her mask to curse. How dare you call a Miss Lin a thief? She couldn't stand it.
Li Wenyan didn't come, but Zhao Jinglei noticed something was wrong: "Let's go!"
"Why are you leaving?! They say we are thieves! We are clearly not..."
At this time, the door of the cloth shop was open, and neighbors holding torches kept coming and going. One could even faintly hear the sound of orderly footsteps coming towards this side in the distance. They were soldiers patrolling the city.
Zhao Jinglei is just a man of few words, not stupid: "Let's go!"
They were very skilled and flew up to the top of the wall and disappeared into the night sky in an elegant manner.
Although there were some setbacks this time, fortunately half of the goal has been achieved... Those banned drugs were not found, but Ye Qingzhou robbed the place where the cloth shop kept money. After counting, there was nearly one thousand taels of silver, which was enough to give some poor families a living.
But their excitement was completely dampened by the news outside the next day.
"The dyeing workshop in the city was visited by thieves last night!"
"Ah? There's such a thing?"
"There's something even more frightening. All the money the dyeing workshop was going to donate to the southwest for disaster relief was stolen. A total of 10 million taels of silver!"
"What! My goodness!"
"My great-uncle's cousin's younger brother's son works for the government. He said the dyeing workshop reported this to the government a few days ago, and the government specially sent someone to inspect the silver, sealed the box, and is waiting for a good day to send it out!"
"Who did this? It's so immoral, isn't it?"
"Who says it's not true? The southwest is flooding, and the higher-ups are refusing to intervene... It's hard to believe this cloth shop in this city is willing to pay for it... By the way, do you know who's actually behind this cloth shop..."
The young men weren't interested in hearing what they already knew. Behind the cloth shop was the Wanbao Pavilion! Now, there was something even more important that they needed to know.
"Qingzhou, how much silver did you take?" Li Wenyan asked in a deep voice.
Ye Qingzhou was stunned: "You all counted it yesterday! That's all! This cloth shop is really out of money."
"But did you hear what those people said just now?" Lin Wanqing looked at Ye Qingzhou.
