Siheyuan: Traveling through Cai Quanwu, pretending to be Uncle Shazhu

Cai Quanwu took a few puffs of his cigarette, played with the jade token in his hand for a while, thought for a while, put the jade token on the table, and said to the master in a joking tone:

"Master, you are really bold. Tell me this. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you for your money?"

When the master heard what Cai Quanwu said, he was stunned. He was so excited that he didn't think of this.

After getting these things, he was very excited and urgently needed to find someone to share his joy.

Because it was Cai Quanwu who reminded him to find a partner, he got these things indirectly and came to Cai Quanwu unconsciously.

"You can't." The master blurted out.

He was not stupid and could tell that there was no joking in Cai's words.

But when the master realized the hidden meaning of Cai Quanwu's words, his face changed drastically and he suddenly felt a little scared.

The master is not stupid, as he could survive that chaotic era.

He was just confused by the peaceful life in the past few years and lost his vigilance for a while.

Now, after Cai Quanwu's reminder, he instantly understood the interests involved.

Seeing the master's face change drastically, Cai Quanwu became serious and reminded him in a serious tone:

"Then Master, it's best not to tell anyone about this after this."

"When you came here, I thought you were asking me about finding a partner. I never thought you came here to talk about this."

"As the old saying goes, don't show off your wealth. If you tell everyone about this, I don't know how many people will want to get your things."

"Haha, if someone sneaks into your house during a dark night with strong winds and heavy rain and pushes you down on the bed, do you think you can keep your things?"

"If you are lucky, you will only lose money, but if you are unlucky, you will lose both your money and your life."

When Cai Quanwu said this, he recalled several things that happened in his village in his previous life.

One incident happened in the 1990s, when a group of people tied the owner of a fish pond to the bed, gagged him, and locked the door.

In one night, all the fish in the pond were stolen.

It was not until noon the next day when the pond owner's wife went to deliver food that she discovered that the pond owner had been tied to the bed and locked in the room.

But there was no surveillance at that time, so there was no way to catch the fish thieves.

In the end, I can only admit that I am unlucky.

This is still good, at least my life is saved.

There is another thing. When the credit union was about to close, someone came to deposit 30,000 yuan, and the teller took the 30,000 yuan home without having time to put it into the safe.

A whole family was brutally murdered at night, and the criminals burned down the house before leaving.

Everyone knew that there was an insider involved, but the case has never been solved.

It remained an unsolved case until Cai Quanwu traveled through time.

Such things were common in that era, let alone now.

When the master heard what Cai Quanwu said, he knew it was for his own good, so he showed no dissatisfaction, but just smiled and said:

"I was so excited that I didn't think too much about it."

After the master explained it, he felt very fortunate:

"But luckily, Xiao Cai, I didn't look for anyone else. You were the first one I came to."

"Just based on what you just reminded me, Xiao Cai, I know that you are not the kind of person who would kill for money."

"If you were that kind of person, you would definitely try to find out what's in the box."

After the master reacted, his mind gradually became clear and he realized that he was indeed too reckless.

He felt lucky that he met Cai Quanwu. If he had met someone with ulterior motives, his fate would have been hard to predict.

When Cai Quanwu heard what the master said, he didn't take it seriously and threatened:

"Then Master, you can only know a person's face but not his heart. How do you know that I didn't say those words on purpose to gain your trust so that I could find an opportunity to attack you?"

"You are not young anymore, don't be so naive."

"People who want to harm you usually do so without making a sound, and strike when you are least prepared."

"Don't trust others too easily in the future."

You can guard against strangers, but how do you guard against acquaintances around you?

For cases like murder for money, apart from roving criminal gangs, most of the others are committed by acquaintances or people with knowledge of the crime in collusion with outsiders.

After Cai Quanwu's ridicule and threats, the master's face turned serious:

"Xiao Cai, thank you."

"Hey, I'm really going backwards as I grow older. I still need you to remind me."

"I've seen this kind of thing before, and I was always very cautious back then."

“I didn’t expect that as I got older, I would lose my vigilance.”

"It may be because the past few years have been peaceful, so we are no longer on guard against people."

At this point, the master suddenly laughed and said:

"Luckily, I got to you first."

"If you hadn't reminded me, I might have told others about this after drinking."

"I'm old, I talk a lot, and when I drink, I can't control my mouth sometimes."

Knowing that the master had listened, Cai Quanwu breathed a sigh of relief.

To put it bluntly, this matter was caused by him.

If he had not instigated the master to find a partner, he might not have discovered these unexpected fortunes.

If the master really got into trouble because of this unexpected wealth, he would be somewhat responsible.

"Then it's good that you know, Master."

"You have to hide these things. Even if you find a partner, don't tell them."

"The tiger has no intention to hurt people, but people have the intention to hurt the tiger."

"After all, the more people who know, the more danger there is."

"Unless you really have a child, you can tell him when the child grows up."

Cai Quanwu reminded the master again.

"I got it. I won't tell anyone even if you kill me." After hearing Cai Quanwu's instructions, the master made a solemn promise.

Seeing that the master was so determined, Cai Quanwu did not continue the topic, but talked about Jia Zhang's matter:

"Okay, Master, it's good that you know it, and we won't talk about it anymore."

"You came today, and I just wanted to tell you something."

"Xiao Cai, you talk. I'm listening." When the master heard Cai Quanwu talking to him about something, he could probably guess what it was about. A smile appeared on his face, and he thought, it won't be a double happiness today.

Cai Quanwu thought about it for a moment and started talking nonsense with Master Ma:

"Is such that."

"Didn't you ask me to find out for you over there?"

"I found a few women in the courtyard and asked them to find out."

"Unexpectedly, a widow in our courtyard came to me after hearing about this, saying that her family was in financial difficulty and she wanted me to help her with some connections to see if it would work out."

Cai Quanwu paused here and looked at the master, wanting to hear what the master had to say first.

He wanted to see if the master would become arrogant after receiving this unexpected fortune.

Seeing Cai Quanwu looking at him, the master thought for a moment and asked:

"Xiao Cai, how old is the widow in your yard? What's the situation at home?"
