Chapter 381 What Qin Zhao Left for He Xu
Shen Tang couldn't get involved in such a big matter.
Because Shen's father injured his forehead and arm, Shen Tangmei simply stayed at Shen's house to take care of his parents.
It was still winter vacation at that time, and the little guy He Zhi was having a lot of fun with a few of his friends.
That day, Shen Tang had just returned from the vegetable market after buying vegetables when suddenly a child stuffed a note and a key into her hand.
Chen Tang subconsciously looked in the direction where the child left.
This is the vegetable market near the military compound. If you have something to ask her, why don't you just go to her directly? It's not shameful, right?
Shen Tang opened the note in his hand and took a look.
There was only a place and a name on the letter.
The name left was Qin Zhao.
Chen Tang immediately went to the military district and gave the letter to He Xu.
"What happened? Why did Master Qin suddenly come to you?"
He Xu was silent for a moment before he told Chen Tang, "Guo Jizu was suspended from his post and investigated. He told Qin Zhao about speculation in the black market. I guess he received the news in advance. I don't know what this location is for."
Although speculation can make money, many people think that if they travel through time and space to this era, they can make their first pot of gold in the black market. But in fact, most people cannot find the black market, and the black market is not suitable for the timid, inexperienced, and unacquainted people.
If you don't catch it, the consequences will be disastrous.
This kind of thing is addictive.
Many people are arrested every year.
Shen Tang knew that someone around him had been there, such as the memorial book.
But she herself didn't dare.
The crime of speculation and profiteering is too serious. As a latecomer, she understands that such a policy is indeed problematic, but you cannot openly confront it just because it is problematic.
Laws and regulations constrain behavior, and if they are wrong, they still apply to the current environment.
Chen Tang had thought about it before, but after marrying He Xu and becoming a soldier's family member, she no longer dared to have those illegal thoughts.
Chen Tang was not surprised at all when Qin Zhao was betrayed.
But she didn't want He Xu to help him.
"Have you ever thought about why Guo Jizu betrayed Qin Zhao? Their target is not Qin Zhao at all, but you. Once you help them, you will have a handle on them."
Chen Tang's mind worked quickly. How could Qin Zhao be noticed by Guo Jizu for no reason?
There is only one possibility, that is, He Tingfeng, the aunt who had been keeping an eye on them, misled Guo Jizu.
He Xu also thought about this. He pondered for a moment. Qin Zhao established a black market. Once he was caught, he would definitely be shot.
But the problem is that he not only set up a black market, he also sold antiques privately.
At this time, private transactions of antiques are prohibited!
Once caught, many people will be implicated.
Not only the He family was in trouble, but those who had bought things from him were even more terrified.
"I know."
He Xu couldn't save him.
It's not just because he's engaged in speculation, but also because the buyers probably don't want him to survive.
If Qin Zhao had retired earlier and stayed away from Kyoto, he might have survived.
But now, he has been targeted, and now he has no way to survive.
"You're going to see him?" Chen Tang was a little worried.
He Xu shook his head: "The letter didn't tell me to go see him."
"So what's with this location and key?"
He Xu didn't understand what Qin Zhao meant either.
But he decided to go and have a look anyway.
With his current skills, even if it is a trap, he is capable of protecting himself from being discovered.
Chen Tang did not go with them, and went to bed early holding He Zhi.
In the evening, He Xu rode his bicycle to the place alone.
The place was a bit remote, in the suburbs, and it was an abandoned house.
He Xu looked around with a flashlight and suddenly found a cellar under some straw.
There was a layer of dust on it and the lock was rusted. He Xu bit the flashlight and opened the cellar.
The wooden stairs creaked as he stepped on them.
Walking inside, you will see more than a dozen extra-large cabinets.
There are also some antiques on it.
He Xu opened the other cabinets and saw that there were not only precious antiques, but also some famous ancient paintings and jewelry!
There was also a letter on the box.
He Xu opened it and saw that it was indeed left for him.
[From He Xu:
When you received this letter, I thought I had no chance of survival.
Money and trade move people's hearts, and people are greedy. Among all my brothers, you are the only one I trust.
Here is my life savings. If possible, you can give half of it, and the remaining half will be given to my daughter when the time is right.
After so many years of friendship, you are the only one I trust.
I hope Brother He will take good care of my daughter after I leave.
Qin Zhaoliu. "
After reading the letter, He Xu put it away.
He sighed silently.
After Qin Zhao was arrested, the investigation team searched Qin Zhao's courtyard inside and out.
The forces in his hands were uprooted.
Not to mention that Qin Zhao’s brother-in-law and his family were all taken away for investigation.
He Xu went to inquire about where Qin Zhao's daughter was, and the news he got was that the little girl, who was about ten years old, was sent out of Kyoto when the Qin family fell.
He should be raised by someone Qin Zhao trusts.
The main reason why Qin Zhao didn't give the child to He Xu was because he was afraid that his daughter would be targeted by someone.
He Xu has just come to Kyoto and does not have much power. Even with the protection of the He family, everyone can guess that he will leave something for his daughter, so he cannot let his daughter stay in Kyoto forever.
Even He Xu couldn’t find where his daughter was, let alone those who were staring at him.
After Qin Zhao and those who helped him in the black market were arrested, they were executed by firing squad on charges of speculation.
Even his own brother-in-law was sent to the Northwest for reform.
He Xu wanted to use some connections to see if he could mitigate his guilt, but he didn't have enough connections. As soon as he used some of the old man's people, he was called back and scolded by the old man.
Qin Zhao did not reveal the officials involved in the private transaction, and being shot was already the best outcome. If He Xu dared to interfere, he would be the next target!
Where did Qin Zhao get those antiques?
Mr. He will understand if he thinks about it.
Now, Qin Zhao chose to make friends with Shen Guang, a key tomb robber in the country. He dared to contact such a person. If Qin Zhao had not been prepared and did not put those things in front of him, once they were searched out, He Xu would definitely be implicated because he made friends with such a person.
Even if Qin Zhao was shot, there were still many people keeping an eye on him.
He Xu vaguely felt that someone was looking for the things Qin Zhao left behind.
Unable to take care of Qin Zhao's affairs anymore, He Xu had to find an opportunity to transport the antiques back to where the old man kept them.
The origins of the old man’s antiques are quite bright.
There are quite a few left over from the He family’s ancestors alone.
The things placed here were all given by others.
The old man also gave him the antiques, and now the hidden basement was his.
He didn't touch the things in Qin Zhao's box.
He Xu didn't know much about antiques. He just thought that they were rare and precious, but they couldn't be seen in public and couldn't be sold, so they were not worth much money. Qin Zhao probably collected so many things just because he had a hobby.
Besides, his grandfather's savings were much more than Qin Yue's few cents.
He thought that there was no gold left in Qin Zhao's box, and guessed that Qin Zhao should have exchanged it for money and gave it to her daughter.
Qin Zhao was smart, and he probably knew that He Xu wouldn't think highly of his stuff, so he felt comfortable handing it over to him.
He Xu didn't care about or understand this aspect, but he knew that sooner or later, those antiques would become his daughter's greatest reliance.
Those antiques won't make my daughter rich and powerful for the rest of her life, but at least they can ensure that she has enough food and clothing.
