"We found a secret room, maybe that's where the silver vault is!" Bai Rui said straight to the point.
Fang Zhengyi and Wang Qian stood up at the same time: "Where is it?"
"It's under a rockery in the southwest of the outer house. Someone is guarding outside now."
"Pack up and take people there immediately! Lord Wang, you stay here. Someone still needs to look after the South Tower. If there is any harvest there, I will come to you the first time!" Fang Zhengyi spoke first.
Wang Qian originally wanted to go, but he didn't expect Fang Zheng to stop him so quickly.
I could only nod and say, "Okay, Master Fang, I'm not in a hurry here, your safety is more important! I have to allocate a group of people to accompany you!"
"Yu Hai! Yu Hai! Escort Master Fang to the silver vault!"
Soon, Yu Hai led more than 200 people to gather in front of Fang Zhengyi.
It is estimated that most of the people guarding the South Tower are here.
Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and said, "Master Wang...even if someone has entered the treasury, there is no need to send so many people to escort me."
Before Wang Qian could speak, Yu Hai said, "Master Fang! The thief is very skilled in martial arts. If there are not enough people to protect you in case of a surprise attack, don't worry. This is an open area and the remaining people are enough to guard the South Tower."
Fang Zheng looked Yu Hai up and down and said, "Well, that makes sense. Then follow me."
The group immediately went to the location of the silver vault.
The location of the silver vault is inconspicuous, and the rockery is even more inconspicuous.
A stone gate disguised as a rockery, mixed with other stones and some flowers and plants, makes it impossible to distinguish.
I don’t know what method Bai Rui used to find this secret room.
Fang Zhengyi was actually very envious of this craft.
When they got to the door, they didn't have the key, so they naturally broke in violently.
A few people found a few hammers and took turns chiseling at the stone door. After a long time, the stone door broke into pieces, revealing a crack that one person could pass through.
Fang Zheng pointed at Yu Hai and said, "You, go in first!"
Perhaps it was because the TV series had a profound influence on him, Fang Zhengyi always felt that there must be some tricks in it.
However, Yu Hai had no objection and went straight in.
The rest of the people followed closely and began to enter the secret room one by one.
After passing through a long and narrow passage, we encountered a stone door and continued to break it down violently!
After passing three levels, the secret room suddenly became clear!
Holding torches, the crowd continued to walk inside and soon reached the end.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fang Zheng was dumbfounded.
Not only was he dumbfounded, everyone was dumbfounded!
There is a lot of space in here, and people are still coming in one after another.
Every time someone entered, another person was petrified on the spot.
The view before us is absolutely dreamy!
Densely packed silver bricks and gold bricks stacked together formed small mountains of gold and silver.
Jade, coral, porcelain, jewelry, and other items are placed everywhere.
Fang Zhengyi even saw something very familiar in the corner, a box full of "diamonds"!
Each one is as big as the glass beads on a modern crystal chandelier!
This is no longer a silver vault, it is simply a giant treasure trove!
The Lu family has accumulated wealth for who knows how many generations, and it is gathered here!
Fang Zheng felt his scalp tingling when he saw it. With so much gold and silver plus the small pieces on the ground, according to his experience, the amount should be more than 10 million taels!
Ten million! This level of numbers can only be heard in the summary accounts of the Dajing Treasury!
And just hear it!
The money in the national treasury goes out faster than it goes in. Natural disasters and man-made disasters continue, and the country still needs to develop, so the treasury is always in a deficit state.
This kind of thing has happened throughout history.
Fang Zhengyi was truly enlightened today! Although Taoyuan County was rich, the entire county combined could never reach this level!
The salt merchants are indeed extremely wealthy!
While others were still immersed in the world of gold and silver, Fang Zhengyi had already recovered.
Now the account book is the key, money is secondary.
While everyone was stunned, Fang Zheng held up a torch and began to search around.
While searching, he was also keeping an eye on Yu Hai.
I saw Yu Hai holding a torch and searching for something.
Fang Zheng searched around but couldn't find the account book.
But halfway through, I found that Yu Hai had already stopped searching, perhaps he had made some discovery.
Seeing that everyone had entered the secret room, Fang Zheng called Bai Rui over and whispered, "Tell the brothers to guard the exit of the secret room. No one is allowed to leave without my order!"
Bai Rui turned around to make arrangements.
Fang Zheng faced everyone and shouted, "Everyone! Line up! Line up!"
The officers and soldiers led by Yu Hai began to line up following Fang Zhengyi's slogan.
Fang Zheng took a gold brick from the "gold mountain" beside him and kept weighing it in his hand.
Seeing the formation completed, he smiled and said, "Everyone, today is an eye-opener, right? Have you ever seen so much gold and silver?"
"No..." Several responses came.
"So do you like these gold and silver?" Fang Zhengyi's voice sounded a little low.
When I asked this question, no one answered.
Who dares to say that they like me? If something is lost, I will be the first person to be suspected.
"Tell me, do you like these gold and silver?" the devil's whisper sounded again.
"I like..." Someone in the crowd responded instinctively, but the voice was very small.
But in this quiet and enclosed space, Fang Zhengyi keenly caught it.
He pointed at the crowd and said, "You! Get out of line! I just heard you talking."
