Chapter 236 She Has Too Little Experience
Lu Shiyan took the cup of water and drank it all in one gulp, only then did he feel a little better.
What he saw and heard that day really made him sick.
If the time had not come, he would have wanted to kill that scoundrel named Shan with one blow today.
Seeing his gloomy face and silence for a long time, Jiang Tangtang thought he hadn't gotten any information and was a little disappointed, but she still comforted him, "It's okay, we can stay in the city for a few more days and slowly find out."
"We've found out the location."
It wasn't difficult to explore Shan Yun's private vault. Judging from his behavior, he liked to keep money under his family's nose.
Sure enough, Lu Shiyan found several places in his mansion that were strictly guarded and the houses were built differently from other places.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be his private vault.
However, from what he observed, the places were not very big, which made him a little confused as to why he only had so little money.
"Now that we've found the location, why are you still so sullen?" Jiang Tangtang said excitedly, "Then let's go!"
Lu Shiyan put his thoughts aside, stood up and said, "Let's go!"
The two of them already had experience in robbing people's private vaults together. Even though Shan Yun's private vault was heavily guarded, it was still a very easy task for the two of them.
"Why are there only three warehouses? Is there another place you haven't checked?"
Jiang Tangtang thought that Shan Yun's ability to amass wealth would definitely surpass Xiang Wanlin's secret vault. She had already made plans to make a fortune today, but she didn't expect to find only three vaults.
Moreover, most of the items in the three warehouses were coarse grains, with some cloth, coral ornaments and so on, but not a single box of gold or silver was found. This was very wrong.
This doesn't look like a corrupt official's warehouse at all.
Lu Shiyan frowned and said, "I only found three."
Jiang Tangtang asked, "Then where is the wealth he collected?" He charged one hundred taels of silver per person to enter the city gate, and he also charged bills for cattle and horses. This was his completely shameless attitude in making money. I don't know how much of the people's wealth he had plundered in the past, but in the end, he only got this little?
Lu Shiyan was also puzzled by this and guessed: "He has many... concubines." Although most of them are men, they should also be concubines!
"The money must be with the concubine. Let's go check it out." Jiang Tangtang said angrily, "We paid for the tickets to get in. We can't let them get away with it."
Lu Shiyan was a little reluctant to take Jiang Tangtang with him, for fear of polluting her eyes.
But Jiang Tangtang was so angry, and she looked like she would not give up until his nest was emptied out today. He thought she was so cute that he could not bear to let her down.
He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Don't look at what's indecent, don't listen to what's indecent. Have you learned that?"
Jiang Tangtang responded by rolling her eyes at him.
You bastard, you come to teach her a lesson at this time?
Lu Shiyan thought of the last time they went to Xiang Mansion and his ears turned red. "I won't be watching it for a while, so don't look at it randomly, or you'll get a stye."
"I understand." Jiang Tangtang's tone was a little impatient. She thought to herself that Dan Yun was not a cow, and he was still plowing the fields so late.
Facts have proved that she is shallow and ignorant.
Not only were they plowing the fields late at night, they were also doing all sorts of tricks. Jiang Tangtang was so shocked by the sight of the three men playing poker together that her eyes nearly popped out of her head.
Can we still play like this?
She has very little experience.
Just as she was about to study it carefully, her eyes were covered by a slightly rough hand.
"Don't look, get down to business." The man's voice, like a cello, rang in her ears.
Jiang Tangtang cursed the man in her heart for ruining the mood, but she still followed him and got down to work.
This is one of the nicer courtyards in the mansion, but the furnishings inside are just average.
She even used smoke to knock out several maids and looked through the master's boxes. He had money, but it wasn't a lot.
Once she got down to business, Jiang Tangtang had no time for entertainment or gossip and began to think carefully.
Just when she was puzzled, Lu Shiyan pulled her and whispered, "Go to the study."
Jiang Tangtang suddenly thought of what was shown in TV dramas. People in ancient times liked to make things like Ange in their study rooms. Could it be that Dan Yun also did this?
When they arrived at the study, Lu Shiyan was looking through the documents and letters, while Jiang Tangtang was searching everywhere for the secret compartment.
Suddenly, several arrows flew out from the wall. It happened so suddenly that Jiang Tangtang had no time to react and even forgot to hide in the space.
At the critical moment, Lu Shiyan flew over and protected her.
This time, there was quite a commotion.
The guards around the study who were knocked unconscious by Jiang Tangtang's smoke screen were not alarmed, but the guards patrolling at night were alarmed.
"Is there any sound?"
Listening to the guards' voices outside and looking at the long arrow stuck in Lu Shiyan's back, Jiang Tangtang became extremely anxious.
"Don't cry, I'm fine." Lu Shiyan was still in the same posture as before, using his body to protect her.
"I didn't cry." Jiang Tangtang raised her hand and touched the tears on her face, only then did she realize that she had been crying without knowing when.
"Okay, you didn't cry. My Tangtang is the strongest." Lu Shiyan tried to open his eyes, but his eyelids drooped uncontrollably as if they weighed a thousand pounds. In the end, he couldn't resist the exhaustion and fainted.
Jiang Tangtang felt a sudden weight on her shoulder, and no matter how much she called out to Lu Shiyan, there was no response.
Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Jiang Tangtang could no longer care about anything else and took Lu Shiyan into the space.
Almost at the moment she brought Lu Shiyan into the space, Shan Yun and a group of guards walked in.
Shan Yun was interrupted just before his ascension to immortality and was called to the study. He was barely dressed, and his whole body was so gloomy that it looked like water could drip out of it.
The guards following behind him secretly groaned in their hearts.
But the study was making such a loud noise that the guard who was guarding the study alone and the secret guard hiding in the dark were all knocked unconscious. Besides, Shan Yun was the only one who had the key to the study, so he had to be called in!
"After being hit by my poisoned arrow, he definitely can't get far. He must be in the mansion." Looking at the chaotic arrows and bloodstains in the study, Shan Yun gritted his teeth and said, "Surround the mansion and search carefully. If I find him, I will skin and bone him."
The guards shuddered, not daring to make a sound, and cautiously left the study.
After everyone left, Shan Yun pushed open the drawer, but was stopped by the accompanying butler, "Master! No, what if the thief is hiding down there? It's better to wake up the secret guards before going down."
"What's the use of them? So many people, and they were taken down by a little thief. It's really embarrassing for me." Although Shan Yun cursed, he didn't move. Obviously, he listened to the butler's advice and planned to wait until the secret guards woke up before taking action.
In the space, Jiang Tangtang was looking at the drawer.
She had already fed Lu Shiyan an antidote pill, removed the arrow from his back, and bandaged the wound with the best medicine.
But the person is still dizzy at this moment.
Jiang Tangtang couldn't get out, and had no other choice but to sit by and watch over Lu Shiyan, while also looking through the space to see what was happening in the study.
About a quarter of an hour later, the butler came in with a group of guards in black.
When the guard saw Shan Yun, he knelt on the ground and confessed his crime.
"You can receive your punishment after this is over. Now follow me to the basement."
Shan Yun reached into the drawer and pressed a button. The bookcase on the wall opened to the sides, revealing a staircase.
Immediately afterwards, the guards walked down in an orderly manner.
Jiang Tangtang had long thought that this study was unusually large. Now, looking at the large staircase that could accommodate two people walking simultaneously, she finally understood what was going on.
I'm afraid the study was built so big just to make it easier to transport things to the basement.
Shan Yun’s money must be hidden in the basement.
However, Jiang Tangtang did not move for the time being.
Firstly, Lu Shiyan was still asleep, so she didn't have the mood to think about anything else. Secondly, the things in the basement wouldn't run away.
As long as she knows the mechanism to open the basement, she can take it away at any time.
