Gu Chi is the one who knows best whether there will be an enemy attack.
Therefore, he calmly held down his master who was about to jump up, and asked Lin Feng in a calm voice: "Lingde, what happened?"
Lin Feng pointed behind him: "My lord, you will know it at a glance."
She was well-informed despite her young age, but she had never seen such a strange scene. Lin Feng led the way, his steps were brisk, and he even used his only literary energy to chase the wind and follow the scenery, while explaining: "The gold has melted!"
Shen Tang followed closely and was confused by what he heard.
His eyes widened: "What do you mean the gold melted? Turned into golden water? Or - Dogcoin Ten Crow used fake gold to deceive us?"
If it was the latter, she would immediately gather her troops and fight back, plowing the capital's land back and forth!"
As soon as the words fell, they arrived at their destination.
Shen Tang was completely stunned.
Several officials assigned to Lin Feng to sort out the accounts were also looking at it helplessly. Not far away there were several open boxes, and pieces of golden bricks were shattered into golden mist, which connected together and turned into water mist that flowed back and sublimated into the sky, which was dazzlingly beautiful.
This is what Lin Feng meant by “turned into gold”!
“What the hell? What the hell is going on? These little bastards, Shi Wu, actually used fake gold to cheat me? They actually cheated me!” Shen Tang was dumbfounded, and then a strong anger rushed to his heart, and he clenched his fists.
The knuckles cracked.
Rub your back molars hard and tighten your cheeks.
No one knew what was going on and no one dared to step forward to help. However, everyone felt the same: their hearts were broken and bleeding.
This scene did not last long.
It took only a dozen breaths of time for Shen Tang and others to come over.
only-
"How come there is still fake gold left?" The boxes were open, and a part of them were taken out, but there was still a lot of fake gold left inside. She waited for a long time, suppressing her anger. When she saw that the gold did not move anymore, she stepped forward and picked up one of the pieces.
The weight of the purchase is extremely heavy.
Except for the fact that the smelting and purification technology was not up to standard, resulting in insufficient color and not so pure color on the surface, everything else was no different from real gold. Shen Tang looked gloomy, weighed it, and squeezed it with his fingers, leaving a few shallow fingerprints in a short while.
It doesn't look like a fake.
Even if she admitted her mistake, it was impossible for everyone to admit it, or did Shiwu use some magical secret language skills to protect the gold, and some means were needed to successfully take the gold out, otherwise the gold would go back after leaving the vault
If so, this time we will suffer a huge loss!
Shen Tang was in a heavy mood, and several conjectures that sounded quite reliable flashed through her mind in an instant. Gu Chi, who was forced to listen to her thoughts, twitched his lips and stepped forward and whispered, "My Lord..."
Hearing Gu Chi's voice, the grievance that had been suppressed finally burst out. She tried hard to purse her lips, suppressing the urge to purse her lips to stop the tears, and tried to use a joking and teasing tone as much as possible.
"Alas... It seems that I am not so lucky. I wanted to bring this money back to repair Longwu County and give everyone some benefits... Especially you, you have been with me for so long, except for the second year of He Yin, your salary has always been short... I can only let you be poor for a while..."
The more I talk about it, the harder it becomes, and I even feel a little frustrated.
Patting Gu Chi on the shoulder, he said, "There will be bread! We will get rich after we get through the most difficult times in the early stages of our business!"
Gu Chi: “…”
Jiang Sheng: “…”
I don't quite understand some of the words, but I can get the general meaning. But - did my lord misunderstand something? ?
Gu Chi took a deep breath.
Interrupting Shen Tang who was about to talk.
"My Lord, do you know what just happened?"
Shen Tang's reaction was to droop his shoulders, snort listlessly, and turn his head away without wanting to answer the question.
She is not in the mood.
Gu Chi explained: "First, this is not some secret technique to protect the vault and recover the gold and silver, you can rest assured about this."
Shen Tang forced himself to cheer up: "What is that?"
Jiang Sheng said: "Even if I spend all my money, I can still get it back."
Gu Chi nodded.
Shen Tang: "This... sounds familiar???"
She relied on her amazing memory to remember where she had heard of it. Jiang Sheng had mentioned it before, saying that there were scholars with special literary talents, with a defect in their reserve of words, who relied on the krypton gold method to obtain unlimited literary energy and swept the whole place.
As long as you have enough gold and silver, you can become a god.
"No! What does this have to do with our gold? There is no such weird scholar among us! If you spend 999 gold for a sword, shouldn't you spend your own gold? What I mean is, you should spend the scholar's own money, right?" Shen Tang stomped his feet and turned around. "Does it mean you can spend whoever's money you want? There's no name written on the gold... I'm confused!"
"This point is beyond my comprehension, but the disappearance of the gold bricks just now is indeed a unique situation of the strange words and spirits, such as 'spending all the money and returning it'." Gu Chi paused, looked at Lin Feng, and ordered, "Lingde, check how much is missing."
Lin Feng nodded and accepted the order.
Because she had already counted these boxes, she was able to count them in a short while and reported back: "Five thousand taels of gold."
Shen Tang: “???”
Gu Chi: “…”
Jiang Sheng: “…”
The three of them all recalled the five thousand taels of gold that Shen Tang had asked for with a smug grin on his pinky finger not long ago. Is there any connection between the two? It can't be a coincidence that the amount that the lord asked for disappeared
Shen Tang was the first to react. He felt dizzy and shouted, "Wait, wait a minute—is Kang Jishou trying to trick me?"
Jiang Sheng asked back: "What does it have to do with him?"
In times of prosperity, there is no need to “spend all your money and make it back again”.
Shen Tang was so angry that he jumped up and down, biting his fingers and pacing back and forth. His brain CPU was overloaded: "He always loses when he gambles, which ruins my luck. Think about it, wealth is also a kind of luck, right? Since I met this guy, I have never been rich!"
In the past, he was possessed by the god of misfortune.
Now the poor ghost is possessed!
Gu Chi couldn't help but say something fair: "Before he met Kang Jishou, wasn't the lord also not rich?"
Shen Tang opened his dead fish eyes and warned faintly.
“…Gu Wangchao!”
Gu Chi knew the situation and tactfully shut up, which made his lord angry.
Jiang Sheng looked thoughtful.
Just when he suspected someone, he had a vague premonition. He looked up and saw a golden light falling from the sky, hitting Shen Tang's head. Fortunately, her long hair was tied up, so she didn't feel the pain. She raised her hand and wiped it, and it was warm.
Shit, is that bird poop
But it feels round and hard to the touch.
When he took it down, it turned out to be a triangular piece of gold.
She said: "This gold shape looks familiar..."
Weigh it, it's about five grams.
Gu Chi: “…”
He thought of something.
Jiang Sheng: “…”
He suspected something.
Shen Tang suddenly remembered and said, "The last time the wounded soldier was hit by gold fragments of this shape..."
Pat on the head, it's a rare occasion to be favored by the goddess of luck.
This made Shen Tang feel better.
Gu Chi added: "The gold and silver scattered by these scholars will eventually carry their own unique personal traces."
Shen Tang smiled bitterly: "I have to thank this 'Giveaway Boy' for giving away five thousand gold coins and getting only a dime for nothing... I am not a pauper. Oh, forget it, let's just leave it at that..."
No matter how angry he was, he would never sacrifice to Kang Jishou.
She was both helpless and relieved: "I can roughly guess something. I remember that Ji Shou's way of scholars is to 'lose every time you gamble'. If you want to 'win every time you gamble', you must have enough luck. His luck is not enough, so naturally I, the lord, will pay for it. He should be in Yonggu Pass now, and I don't know what the situation is. If you spend five thousand taels to defend Yonggu Pass and protect the people in the pass, five thousand taels -"
She tilted her head and spread her hands indifferently.
"Let it go if it's over."
Compared with the lives of her subordinates and the common people under her rule, she would spend even 50,000 taels of gold, let alone five thousand taels!
After saying this, the gloomy look on his face disappeared.
There is no false open-mindedness at all.
Jiang Sheng: “…”
This made him completely speechless as he wanted to say something speculative. The content that was so close to the truth was stuck in his throat and churned.
"My Lord, actually..."
Shen Tang put the three-cornered gold pieces into his purse.
I pulled the tether tight, fearing that it would melt away too.
I was secretly grateful to the boy who gave away money.
So that you don't become penniless.
"Let's get it sorted out and go back." Shen Tang interrupted Jiang Sheng. She didn't want to hear the rest of the story. She said she was open-minded, but her heart was still bleeding. She needed time to slowly lick her wounds and wait for time to heal this injury.
Thanks to her own way of being a prince, she was not so poor that she starved to death. This was a blessing in disguise.
"As a human being, you need food to eat, a roof over your head, a job, ideals, and a future... Even if you don't have money, you can still endure it!"
Shen Tang patted Jiang Sheng on the shoulder and calmly instructed Lin Feng to record all the remaining gold, silver and jewelry into the account.
To facilitate subsequent arrangements.
The soldiers shed blood and died for her, but their families should not be allowed to shed tears. Post-war pensions, compensation and rewards are the top priority, and it is good that the remaining money does not disappear.
Lin Feng bowed and replied “Yes”.
Jiang Sheng opened his mouth but swallowed it back.
Gu Chi heard the door and asked, "What's going on?"
Jiang Sheng whispered: "Ah, we'll know when we get back..."
Shen Tang's logical thinking put a huge blame on Kang Shi who was far away in Yonggu Pass.
but-
He was willing to take the blame.
Yonggu Pass, on the battlefield.
The wind is rising and the clouds are surging, and the drums of war are deafening.
The king in the main tent of the Ten Crows Central Army had a sullen face, so gloomy that water could almost drip out of it. He angrily grasped the golden armrests of the throne, and his strength was out of control, leaving twisted finger marks. Others dared not speak, and each of them seemed to be under a silence ban.
They could understand the king's anger.
In the three battles between the two armies, they were full of confidence at first, and they were sure that they could win all three and inflict a heavy blow on the enemy. However, in the first battle, Su Shiyilu was careless and was unfortunately defeated by Chu Jie.
In the second battle, the special killer weapon was intended to target Chu Jie. If he could be killed in front of the battle, the morale loss in the first battle could be doubled, because Chu Jie was the commander of Yonggu Pass, and the blow to the morale of the soldiers guarding Yonggu Pass would be doubled.
result-
An unknown brave warrior jumped out halfway.
They watched helplessly as Chu Jie rode his horse back to Yonggu Pass, disrupting the established plan. It would have been fine if they could have won the second battle and killed this unknown person, but who knew that this brave warrior was so powerful!
