Nan Zhi and Song Hanyan hid behind the window.
"Why is Your Highness going to the east of the city at this time?" the younger boy asked, puzzled.
The elderly man in the long robe frowned slightly. "This is not something you should be asking about."
"Oh, shopkeeper, how much silver does His Highness need?" the young master asked.
"Thirty thousand taels of silver."
"Wouldn't that mean we'd have to open the warehouse?"
Song Hanyan and Nan Zhi, who were inside the warehouse, were filled with anxiety.
If they come in, Nanzhi can simply hide in the spatial dimension.
But whether Song Hanyan can go in with her is uncertain.
"Cherry, what are the chances that we'll go into the space together?"
Cherry coldly replied, "One percent, zero."
"Is there no other way?"
The answer she received was still a completely emotionless voice: "No."
Nanzhi looked around; all she saw were chests filled with gold and silver, and nowhere to hide.
Outside, the old man stopped at the entrance of the warehouse.
The sound of the lock being opened reached their ears.
The two looked at each other.
The door slowly opened, and the boy glanced inside.
"Shopkeeper, did the prince say whether he wanted silver notes or silver in advance?"
The shopkeeper thought for a moment, then said, "Silver notes."
Not long after, the boy came out carrying silver notes.
Hiding in the shadows, Nanzhi was surprised to find that there was not only real gold and silver, but also silver notes hidden in a secret room.
The shopkeeper took the silver note and looked around.
"Keep a close eye on things these days. The thieves are causing trouble. If they find out about this place, we'll be in big trouble."
The young man smiled obsequiously and readily agreed, "Don't worry, manager, we have people all over our gambling den, inside and out. Nobody knows about this place."
The old man took the silver note and left with peace of mind.
After the boy left, he locked the door.
"There seem to be a few boxes of gold, something's not right," the boy whispered.
The old man in front turned around. "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
The boy waved his hand, "No, no."
He probably misread it.
With such tight security, how could anyone get in?
Nanzhi, who was hiding in the box, let out a sigh of relief and pushed open the box lid.
Thank goodness, we emptied the boxes in the alley and crawled in.
The two hurriedly packed up all the gold and silver and took it away, along with the silver notes hidden in the secret room.
"etc."
Song Hanyan suddenly stopped.
Following her direction, Nanzhi saw a stone handrail.
Song Hanyan stretched out his hand and gently turned it.
The stone lions on the handrail actually moved.
Immediately afterwards, a stone gate slowly rose up behind them.
Nanzhi ran over and was almost blinded by the light.
Silks and satins, pearls and jade, everything imaginable was available.
Even the cherries hidden in the space couldn't sit still any longer.
"Master, Master, shall we talk?"
There are countless treasures; I'll collect them myself, and it will take some time.
The boy from before might return at any time; for now, we must act quickly.
Nanzhi agreed to cooperate with it on the condition that it give him one-tenth of the treasures.
Watching the jewelry vanish in the blink of an eye, Song Hanyan remained calm and composed.
This is just one of my wife's little tricks; we're used to it, so it's fine.
"Let's go," Song Hanyan said.
Nanzhi had an idea. "Wait, after taking so many things, we should leave something for the King of Qi."
......
Not long after, the boy, still feeling uneasy, hurried to the entrance of the vault.
The door opened, and the warehouse was empty.
"Good heavens!"
The boy's legs buckled, and he knelt on the ground.
The guards who rushed to the scene were even more alarmed.
"this."
"what happen!"
The shopkeeper ran over.
The boy pointed to the empty room, "Shopkeeper, it's all gone."
The shopkeeper pushed the boy aside and went into the storeroom.
The gold and silver were gone, the banknotes were gone, the treasures were gone, and even the box containing the gold and silver was gone.
The warehouse was so clean that even rats wouldn't bother with it.
"Shopkeeper, what is that?"
In the center of the warehouse, there was a piece of paper pasted on it.
The guard leaped and took it down.
In the middle of the large white paper, five large characters were written in a flowing style.
"I was here!"
The shopkeeper was furious.
She turned to the boy, "Didn't you say it was foolproof?"
The boy was also innocent. "Shopkeeper, our people have been watching here the whole time, and no one has ever gone out."
The guards nodded repeatedly.
The boy continued, "Besides, the shopkeeper had just taken the money. It's impossible for him to have moved these things in such a short time."
Shopkeeper: "There's no hole, no footprints, so tell me, how did this silver go missing!"
The boy trembled as he slowly raised his head.
"Shopkeeper, could it be... done by a ghost?"
After all, it must be superhuman to be able to move all these things in such a short time.
On the street, Nanzhi happily stood with her hands behind her back.
Song Hanyan: "Zhizhi, are you tired? I'll carry you."
Nanzhi waved her hand, "No need."
I had a very fruitful day, and I feel full of energy as I walk.
I could walk another ten or eight miles without getting tired.
"Let's go to the next location, and leave some for Qi Yu."
Song Hanyan noticed that Nanzhi mentioned a person's name.
"Qi Yu?"
Nan Zhi replied without hesitation, "A new friend I recently made. He's a nice person, but he's a bit weak."
As Nanzhi walked, she suddenly felt the chill of frost behind her.
She slapped her forehead suddenly.
Oh, I forgot, this guy is incredibly jealous.
Nanzhi jogged over to Song Hanyan.
"Brother Song, you must remember, you are my precious treasure, I only love you."
Nanzhi flirted wildly, but inwardly she felt utterly disgusted with her own actions.
