The clothes, gold and silver, and chests she had just brought in were now neatly stacked in the corner directly opposite the main gate.
From a normal perspective, there are quite a lot of these things.
However, placed in such a large warehouse environment, these few boxes are simply insignificant, and by appearances they take up less than one-thousandth of the entire warehouse area.
It's like a large rice jar that currently only contains one grain of rice.
Shu Ying stood at the doorway, feeling as if she had stumbled into a land of giants, and felt herself become much smaller.
The storage space in this warehouse is far too much.
It seems that even if the estate left by Grandpa were as big as a mountain, this warehouse could easily hold it all.
but……
Shu Ying gave a self-deprecating laugh.
She's being far too idealistic. Although Grandpa left behind some property, it's not as much as a mountain, is it?
At most, only a few dozen pieces?
When the quantifier "dozens of items" popped into her head, Shu Ying felt inexplicably guilty, thinking that she had been too daring in her thinking.
With Grandpa's discerning eye for collecting, even one or two pieces are valuable enough. If she had dozens of pieces, she could probably open a museum!
Shu Ying smiled and shook her head.
That's far too far-fetched.
However, this large warehouse is quite good. With such a large capacity, it seems that anything can be stored here freely in the future. There's no need to worry about not being able to carry it with me, nor about having any valuables discovered or coveted by others.
These boxes, even if you beat Shu Yan and Shu Jie to death, they probably would never have imagined that she would keep them here.
Shu Ying smiled and stepped forward to examine the boxes carefully.
Shu Jie was surprisingly cautious this time. Each box was made of extremely sturdy materials, and it was secured with iron rings and two locks.
If there's a lock, there should be a key.
Shu Ying thought about it carefully.
To make sure nothing was missed, she stripped almost all of Shu Jie's clothes with pockets that could hide things, and even grabbed the key hanging from his waist.
Shu Ying quickly found the pile of clothes that had been automatically folded and placed in the corner, and turned Shu Jie's coat upside down and shook it—
"Splash—"
A bunch of keys fell out of Shu Jie's shirt pocket.
Just as Shu Ying was about to put down her coat, her hand holding it moved, and she heard another muffled "rustling" sound.
Shu Ying reached out and touched it, only to find that there was an inner pocket sewn inside the coat, and the inner pocket was sealed with thread.
Shu Ying gave a cold laugh.
Luckily, she was careful and also looted the clothes.
Shu Ying tore open the fabric, took out the key, and then found the bunch of keys that had been hanging on Shu Jie's waist.
Just as she was about to test each box, Shu Ying glanced at it and suddenly noticed a key that looked somewhat familiar.
Shu Ying frowned, extended her slender white fingers, and directly picked out the key. Upon closer inspection—
Isn't this her house key?
The lock in her house is an old-fashioned Guang lock, which was specially made by an old locksmith with ancestral skills when her grandfather was still alive. It is very sturdy and difficult to pry open.
Even the padlocks used today are not as secure as it.
Correspondingly, the key's shape is also different from the keys currently in use, making it quite unique and easy to recognize.
But there were only two keys to this lock, and after her grandfather passed away, they both ended up in her possession.
