Manager Li was eager to sell Jiguana Mountain and agreed immediately.
In the afternoon, General Manager Li came to the gate of the County Office with a few servants and said to Kang Yueran with a smile: "Miss, let's go and transfer the property."
This smile was a bit creepy, and Kang Yueran felt uneasy, and was very sure that this General Manager Li was going to do something bad.
After entering the yamen, the yamen runners were very polite because of the face of General Manager Li. They wrote a contract and asked both parties to sign it.
Manager Li signed his name, pressed his fingerprint, and took out Wang Quanfu's seal and pressed it on.
So easy? Kang Yueran took the contract and took a look at it, and immediately lost his composure. "Li Dazhang, we agreed on eight thousand taels of silver this morning, why is it that the contract says fifteen thousand taels of silver?"
Chief Steward Li began to play dumb, "Miss Kang, what do you mean? Didn't we agree on 15,000 taels this morning? When did you mention 8,000 taels?"
"Are you clearly trying to trick me?"
Li Dazongguan sneered repeatedly, "I advise you to admit it. I have people outside, and you can't escape from this county yamen. Even if you can get out of the yamen, Mingzhou still has the city defense army, and I can still catch you back.
Miss Kang, you will have to accept it sooner or later, so why do you have to endure this pain? I am doing this for your own good."
For her own good? Ha! "Alright! Go get me a red deed now!" She'll steal back what she lost tonight.
Seeing her straightforwardness, Chief Steward Li felt that the price was too low. "Of course I can process the red deed, but I'll need five hundred taels of silver for tea and water."
Did he really think she was a pushover? Would he keep on pushing her? Kang Yueran picked up the contract and slammed the desk in his hand, breaking it.
"Hurry up and get the red deed ready and hand it over to me. Otherwise, you'd better be careful when you sleep at night. It's much easier to break your neck than to smash a desk."
Li Dazongguan was sweating coldly, "Who are you?"
Kang Yueran showed her true face and did not intend to hide it. "Okay, I am the headmaster of Qingping Village in Anzhou."
Mingzhou and Anzhou are not far apart, and the people of Mingzhou have also heard about what happened in Qingpingzhuang.
The bailiff pointed at Kang Yueran and shouted in horror: "Are you the female bandit leader of Qingping Mountain?" Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, the bailiff quickly covered his mouth.
Kang Yueran didn't explain. She asked Li Dachang, "What price did we negotiate this morning? Does Li Dachang still remember?"
In order to please Wang Quanfu, General Manager Li has already told him that Jiguana Mountain was sold for 15,000 taels of silver. What should he do with the difference of 7,000 taels?
He was so anxious that his forehead was sweating. "Ten thousand, ten thousand..."
Kang Yueran interrupted him, "I know that Mingzhou Bingcao Yu Qiu Zhi is your master's son-in-law. Why don't you go and invite Mr. Qiu over now? I'll ask him in person if he's willing to fight against Qingping Manor for your master."
Qiu Zhi had many wives and concubines, and although Miss Wang was his legal wife, she wasn't favored. Li Dazonghe knew without asking that Qiu Zhi would definitely refuse. "I remember, we were talking about eight thousand taels this morning."
Hu Dacheng threw the bag he was carrying at the feet of Li Dazongguan, "Eight hundred taels of gold."
Kang Yueran looked at the yamen runner and said, "Rewrite the contract and make a red deed!"
She handed Hu Dacheng the contract with a transaction price of fifteen thousand taels and said, "Burn it!"
The bailiff quickly searched through the documents that had fallen on the ground, knelt on the ground and rewrote the contract, asked both parties to sign and seal it, and quickly completed the red deed, handing it to Kang Yueran with both hands.
How could Chief Steward Li dare to stop her? He just hoped that the female bandit would not cause him trouble.
Kang Yueran took the contract and the red deed and left the yamen with Hu Dacheng.
Back at the inn, Hu Dacheng told Chai Shijing what had happened, "That Wang family is so shameless!"
Chai Shijing comforted Kang Yueran, "Don't be angry yet, I will take care of it for you later."
Kang Yueran smiled and said, "I'm not angry. I believe you will help me vent my anger. Besides, I still made a profit by buying a coal mine for 8,000 taels."
She didn't want to make Chai Shijing worry so she didn't say anything. She planned to go to the Wang family's warehouse at night. If anyone dared to cheat her, there was no way!
As night fell, everyone went to bed.
Kang Yueran changed into black clothes, swung the Flying Tiger Claw, and jumped out of the inn.
Dayong was not in turmoil, and Mingzhou was not on the border, so leaving the city at night was strictly prohibited. The curfew was not strict, and people were allowed to go out at night for weddings, funerals, or medical emergencies. If they encountered the city guards patrolling the city, they could give them some money and find a reason to let them go.
There were few people on the street, so Kang Yueran ran all the way to the Wang family.
She flung out her Flying Tiger Claw and easily stood on the wall of the Wang family's house. The Wang family's house was large, but the main courtyard was not difficult to find. The most luxurious and brightest courtyard was most likely the right one.
She stood on a high wall, spotted a yard, memorized the direction, then jumped off the wall and ran over.
Hiding near the yard, Kang Yueran saw two patrolling guards coming over. She quickly knocked them unconscious and dragged them to the corner.
After waking one person up, he put the dagger to the man's neck and asked, "Tell me, where is your master's storehouse?"
The man was terrified and stretched out his hand, trembling, to point out three places. "Brave man, I've told you everything. Please spare my life. I will never betray you."
Kang Yueran used a voice changer, so his voice was male.
She knocked the man unconscious with a knife and then headed towards the warehouse.
The more valuable the items stored in the warehouse, the thicker the walls should be and the easier it will be to identify them.
Kang Yueran stood on the roof of the warehouse, entered the space, and when he came out, he was already standing inside the warehouse. The space did not have a teleportation function, so he could only move a few steps at most.
