Chapter 188 Big Purchase
Jiang Tangtang said firmly, "I'll go with you." Seeing Lu Shiyan hesitate, Jiang Tangtang added, "It will be dawn in less than two hours. Don't waste time."
Lu Shiyan glanced at the sky and compromised helplessly.
The two went to Project Wan Lin's study together.
During the day, Xiang Wanlin summoned his staff to plot to frame Lu Shiyan. After they discussed and came up with a plan, they have been busy with this matter.
Just before the incident happened in the mansion, he was writing a secret letter in the study. He had only written half of it when he was hurriedly called away by his subordinates because of Madam Xiang's scandal.
At this moment, the half-written secret letter was still on the desk.
Although it was only half, based on the content and combined with the conversation between Mrs. Xiang and her lover at the time, Lu Shiyan still roughly guessed what he was going to do.
While Lu Shiyan was looking through the letters on the table, Jiang Tangtang was not idle either. She found that the prefect Xiang Wanlin was really rich. Not to mention the priceless things in the secret vault, even any inconspicuous item in the study was a priceless good thing.
However, Jiang Tangtang did not take it. The study was not like a secret library. Xiang Wanlin would immediately find out if something inside was missing.
Although she really wanted to see Xiang Wanlin's angry look when he knew that the things in his secret vault were missing, discovering it too early would bring trouble to their actions. It would be better for him to discover it later.
Jiang Tangtang was just flipping through his documents, account books and other things when he suddenly heard voices outside.
It looked like the guard outside the study. He had just run along to watch the fun and was now sighing.
I heard one person say, "I used to wonder why Chief Steward Qin treated Madam so well when he wasn't her biological son! She sent him all the good things, she treated him like she was her own mother. Now I finally understand why."
"That's right. If it weren't for what happened today, I would have thought that Madam didn't have any biological children, so she really treated Steward Qin as her own! I didn't expect that they were not that kind of relationship."
"I can't believe it. Madam looks so dignified and virtuous on a daily basis, but she's actually so promiscuous behind the scenes. She's been roaming around with Steward Qin while my master is still in the mansion. I don't know how many times she's cheated on my master before."
The more they spoke, the more explicit their words became, but they were suddenly interrupted by someone shouting, "If you want to stay alive, you'd better keep your mouths shut. If the adults hear this, watch out for your heads."
The people who were talking animatedly just now suddenly fell silent.
Yang Zhen glanced at them coldly and said, "Hurry up and fetch some water and clean up the mess. When the adults come over and see the mess, you're all sitting here gossiping. You all want to be punished, right?"
"Deputy Chief Steward Yang, the master has to come back to handle official business tonight?" someone asked in surprise.
"You are all aware that Your Excellency has always been enthusiastic about public affairs. Why do you even need to ask?"
Yang Zhen said, "If the adults come back and see the mess, they might think of something bad. If you don't want to be scolded by the adults, you should be more considerate."
Several people had just been scolded by him, and now they were assigned to do work that was not within their job scope. They were all very angry.
However, now that Chief Steward Qin had been executed by the Lord himself, he was now the most senior in the guard team. Several people were dissatisfied, but they did not dare to show it. They all went to get brooms and rags to clean up.
Although the house that caught fire just now did not cause too much damage to the mansion because the fire was put out in time, a lot of ashes from the fire floated over, and now there was black ash everywhere.
The guards were busy cleaning the yard, but they stumped Lu Shiyan and Jiang Tangtang.
With so many people outside, how the two of them could get out became a problem. More importantly, it was heard that Xiang Wanlin would be returning to the study soon.
Jiang Tangtang couldn't help but look at Lu Shiyan. She was thinking that if it really didn't work, she would take him to hide in the space, when the noise outside was heard again.
Lu Shiyan winked at Jiang Tangtang and secretly went out to check. Seeing that the guards had dropped their brooms and rags and ran away, he hurriedly turned around and came back to take Jiang Tangtang out of the study.
"What happened?" The situation changed so quickly that Jiang Tangtang was still a little slow to react.
"I'm not sure. Let's go back first and send someone to inquire later." Lu Shiyan kept walking and quickly left Xiang Mansion with Jiang Tangtang in his arms.
As the darkness gradually dissipated, it became increasingly difficult for the two men to hide.
After leaving Xiang Mansion, the two went straight back to their residence.
"You rest for a while, we will leave the city after dawn." After Lu Shiyan put Jiang Tangtang down, he immediately went out.
Seeing that he was exhausted after a whole night and didn't even have time to sit down and drink a sip of water, Jiang Tangtang felt a little distressed.
But knowing that he was doing important things, he did not stop him. He just stuffed some snacks into Lu Shiyan's mouth, filled his water bag with spiritual spring water, and went back to the house.
However, after returning to the room, Jiang Tangtang couldn't sleep.
She is excited.
The harvest tonight was so huge that she couldn't wait to go to the space to count the things.
However, there were too many things and she didn't have time to clean them one by one, so she just gave them a rough inventory.
In addition to valuable items such as gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, there are also two warehouses that store all weapons.
There are complete items including swords, bows and crossbows, all brand new.
So many brand new weapons were left gathering dust in the warehouse. Lu Shiyan led his soldiers to fight against foreign enemies, but all he got were some scrap metal.
Jiang Tangtang was so angry that she decided to give the weapons to the soldiers after returning to the camp and let them all replace them with new weapons.
In addition to weapons, there is also food...
However, soldiers can't just eat rice and no vegetables! They also need to supplement protein to stay healthy and strong enough to fight.
Jiang Tangtang couldn't help but think about how to add more food to the soldiers' meal.
It seems that in addition to opening shops and workshops to vigorously develop business, the breeding industry cannot be left behind!
But it’s too late to raise one now. She has plenty of money now, so she can buy one first!
Jiang Tangtang thought to herself, and simply left a message for Lu Shiyan and went to the market to buy something.
Jiang Tangtang didn't feel bad about spending her own money. She bought whatever she saw in the market, chicken, duck, goose, pork, beef, or mutton, and took it to the carriage.
Seeing Jiang Tangtang's generosity, vendors in the market came over to offer their services. "Auntie, are you having a wedding at home? You're buying so many things."
When Jiang Tangtang went shopping today, she deliberately used her own cosmetics to dress up. Now she looks like a woman in her thirties or forties.
Jiang Tangtang imitated the way middle-aged women used to brag about their sons on TV, and said with a proud chin raised: "That's right, my eldest son is getting married to the daughter of a scholar, so this must be done well."
"Auntie, it's not cost-effective to buy things like this for your son's wedding. You can buy a few pigs and kill them. You'll get more meat and it'll be cheaper than buying them like this." A man holding a machete said, "I can even kill them for you for free. Auntie, do you want to buy a live pig?"
