Chapter 149 Poor Man (First update, please subscribe, please support)
"Hey, have you heard that the Fan family was ransacked a few days ago!"

At the tea stand beside the road, when Shi Yiwen and his party asked for tea to quench their thirst, the people at the tea stand began to talk about what happened recently.

Hearing this, Shi Yiwen knew it clearly, it seems that this place has already copied the house by hand.

However, I don't know if the silver cellar she said has been discovered. If it is discovered, then this trip will be in vain.

Sitting at the side, the corners of Li Wanqing's lips, who was dressed in men's attire, slowly lifted up, and did not speak.

"Why haven't you heard of it? Of course I've heard of it. This matter is such a big deal in Shanxi. Who hasn't heard of it? It's not just the Fan family who was ransacked. I heard that there are Wang family and Tian family. It's good enough." Dozens of houses were ransacked!"

"My God, what a big case this must be."

"How big is the case? Maybe that eunuch Wei Zhongxian took a fancy to someone else's money!"

"How come, I heard that those people colluded with the Tartars and sold weapons to the Tartars."

"How is this possible, they will lose the money?"

"How can it be impossible? No one in business thinks there is too much money. Besides, the mansion newspaper also said that they want to plot rebellion and assassinate the emperor!"

"What? They are so courageous, they are just a group of businessmen!"

"Businessman? A businessman who does business with Tartars."

"If you don't tell me, I still can't remember. In the early days, there was a lot of rumors in Zhangjiakou that someone was selling things to the Tartars. I thought it was a small business peddler earning a little money. Everyone who has a big career and a few generations of merchants actually does this kind of business with no conscience, and they usually look like good people!"

"What is a good family? It is clear that black eyes can't see silver. If there is silver to earn, who doesn't earn it?"

"A businessman! It should be copied!"

"A profiteer is hateful, but it's just a pain for the eldest lady of the Li family."

"What do you say?"

Listening to the man discussing what the Li family said, Shi Yiwen glanced at Li Wanqing.

"Haven't you heard, four days ago, Miss Li's family died of an emergency, and she was buried hastily that day."

In an instant, Li Wanqing's eyes widened, and the tears almost didn't flow down.

"How is this going?"

"Miss the Li family, you and the eldest son of the Fan family are baby kisses! Think about it, the Fan family's treason has been copied, and the Li family is afraid of getting involved, so Miss Li must die!"

"You mean, she, she's..."

"Emergency, emergency, don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense, don't hurt others!"

"That's right, just don't harm the Li family, they are kind people."

With tears in her eyes, Li Wanqing said softly.

"Brother Shi, I'm a little tired, let's go to the car and rest for a while."

Seeing her like this, Shi Yiwen smiled helplessly, and then said:

"Okay, everyone will get up after drinking, it's time for us to set off."

Along the way, none of them said a word. Although everyone could understand why the Li family did this, it didn't feel good to anyone.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Wanqing remained silent the entire time. It was not until near noon that she looked into the distance and said:

"Master Shi, do you know? I was always afraid that you would kill me after you got the money."

Shi Yiwen laughed and said:
"It's normal to worry about these things, but I don't need to silence it. When I arrive at Beigang, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the court can't ask about it, why should I silence it?"

"Master Shi, I know you are a good person, otherwise, otherwise... how could you say let me go home?"

Looking at the man in front of her, she couldn't help thinking secretly that in the few days when he was rescued by this man, she was worried that he would, would...

Thinking of this, she couldn't help thinking:

"Whether he is a villain or not, I can only rely on him in the future, after all..."

Although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, Li Wanqing was still a little disappointed when she thought that her parents had given her a "funeral", she sighed.

"From now on, the concubine will no longer have a home, and can only follow the lord, and only ask the lord to take pity on the concubine for being a miserable person."

The sadness in the soft voice made people feel pity, Shi Yiwen nodded.

"Don't worry, Beigang will be your home in the future."

"It doesn't matter, as long as there are adults around."

With a slight smile, Li Wanqing raised her beautiful eyes and saw Shi Yiwen looking at her thoughtfully. She couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat. She blushed and changed her words when she realized that she was disrespectful:
"My lord laughed at the concubine's disrespect. By the way, my lord seemed a little worried when she was at the tea stall just now."

Shi Yiwen laughed and said:

"You mean the Fan family's house was ransacked. It's nothing to worry about. It's only arrived here after ten days of driving. It's inevitable that you will feel a little bit disappointed."

Lost, that is a must.But it is also understandable, after all, the old house of the Fan family has been ransacked, and it is understandable that the silver cellar was robbed first.

People die for money, birds die for food, Shi Yiwen doesn't even know how he is so obsessed, but what is certain is that he really doesn't want to miss this wealth.

"My lord, don't worry, if there is no guidance, no one will find out!"

A pair of phoenix eyes widened suddenly, and after glancing at him, Li Qingwan shook her head and said.

"My lord doesn't know, but every Shanxi merchant's family will build several silver cellars in the old house, and put silver in them every year. If they are not needed, they will bury the exit after the silver cellars are full. In case of emergencies. Except for the owner, no one knows its location. Over the years, the Fan family’s business has been getting better and better every day. They will definitely not use the cellar silver. If my expectations are not bad, the cellar silver must be in good condition. in the silver cellar."

She glanced at Shi Yiwen with her beautiful eyes, and seeing that he was engrossed in listening, she continued:
"For adults, the most important thing is how to bring out the silver. Although the concubine doesn't know how much silver there is, it must not be less than several million taels. With so much silver taels, at least a hundred carts must be loaded. If the convoy passes by, it will inevitably attract suspicion, your foundation is not stable, if someone with a heart finds out, there will inevitably be people who are dissatisfied with you, and I am afraid they will take the opportunity to impeach you."

If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid he would really be worried about this kind of thing, but when it comes to Shi Yiwen, it's not a problem at all, he couldn't help laughing:
"You don't have to worry about Miss Wanqing. I will make arrangements for the money when the time comes. As for those who are dissatisfied with me..."

Grinning, Shi Yiwen didn't take it seriously at all, after all, Wei Zhongxian is blocking it now.

"Now the imperial court doesn't have the energy to pay attention to this at all. We just need to get this matter done right now."
