Chapter 205 Silver Notes and Gold Leaf
Why did it go up directly?
Ji Liangqing was a little confused.
Obviously, Li Jiang's operation relies on technical skills.
Shangguan Wai and Young Master Shangguan felt the carriage shaking, but they didn't feel anything was wrong at all, so they asked from behind the curtain:
"Guanshi Ma, what happened to the boy you were looking for?"
After searching for so long and it being so noisy outside, there must be quite a few qualified candidates.
Thinking of this, the expression on Shangguan Wai's face became increasingly greasy, as if he couldn't wait to have a taste.
Li Jiang obviously didn't reply. Ji Liangqing only saw him pull out the machete from his body, as if he was thinking about how to get it in to kill him with one blow.
Is it so powerful?
Ji Liangqing was confused by the operation in front of him.
The superior officer inside did not hear the reply, and for a moment he felt that something was wrong. He frowned and wanted to open the curtain to check, but was stopped by his son.
"Dad, I'm going to see what's going on, and by the way, see who are the good-looking people I'm looking for." Young Master Shangguan has a big belly at a young age, and his small, twinkling eyes are full of lust.
He simply wanted to see what good-looking people were out there.
Shangguan knew his son very well and had a knowing smile on his face.
He smiled and said: "Okay, Lei'er, be careful and don't let those untouchables rush you."
Shangguan Guanwai felt very sorry for his only son and indulged him in everything.
Young Master Shangguan nodded, responded to his father's words, and opened the curtain.
Before he even had time to see what was outside, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
He lowered his head and saw that a knife had just been pulled out of his body.
He made two "ho ho" sounds in his throat, a little blood foam came out of the corner of his mouth, and fell from the carriage to the ground with a bang.
"Lei'er!"
All this happened in an instant. Before Shangguan could even realize what was going on, he saw his son fall down.
Master Shangguan was obese and blocked all the space when he went out. It was the officials above who did not see Li Jiang.
Now that he was extremely worried about his son's condition, he subconsciously raised his legs and went out, and met Li Jiang's eyes.
The machete in Li Jiang's hand was stained with blood even in the dark night. The two of them were caught off guard and looked at each other. Li Jiang was like an evil ghost crawling out of hell.
The superior officer screamed in surprise, rolled his eyes in fright, and fell to the other side of the carriage like his son.
Both of them were obese, and they stirred up dust the moment they fell.
The moment Li Jiang saw Shangguan outside, a flash of hatred flashed in his eyes. He picked up the knife and jumped out of the car to kill him, but was stopped by Ji Liangqing.
"Don't stop me, he has a grudge against me!" Li Jiang tilted his head slightly and motioned for Ji Liangqing to let go.
Ji Liangqing was a little surprised.
It turns out that Shangguanwai actually had a grudge against Li Jiang!
But then again, this kind of evil person has made so many enemies that he probably doesn't even know how much hatred he has incurred.
But now we have to focus on the overall situation, Ji Liangqing still had to advise:
"We will leave him alive, and we will come back to take him back later. If he loses his protection, he may suffer a lot of torture on the road. You understand him so easily. Are you giving this thief an advantage?"
Also, if there are subordinates waiting for help on the road besides the superior officer, the superior officer can also drag him away for a while. Otherwise, if they all die, wouldn't those subordinates be focused on seeking revenge?
Li Jiang was finally persuaded. He gritted his teeth and put down the machete in his hand, turned around and jumped out of the car, and took out a large amount of banknotes from the two of them.
There is also a bag of gold leaves and a jade pendant.
Silver notes and gold leaves were hard currency, so Ji Liangqing thought that the jade pendant might be some kind of token.
But what the heck, take it first and talk about it later!
After the two of them dealt with this person, they turned to look at the side of the fight.
That group of officers and soldiers is not a vegetarian either. They are still struggling to deal with this group of unruly people. They are in the fiercest stage of the struggle.
Even Manager Ma joined the battlefield to help.
This stage was so intense that no one noticed.
Now was the best time. The two of them pulled their horses and carefully passed around the side where the cart was parked.
Wang Goudan noticed it keenly and immediately looked at this group of people more vigilantly.
Seeing someone turning his head as if he noticed something, he immediately rushed forward excitedly and said to the person:
"Be careful, someone is going to hit you from behind!"
When the person who wanted to turn around heard this, he turned around and punched the officers and soldiers on the side again.
Son of a bitch, you still want to hit him?
Now is not the time for these people to ride on their heads!
The angry refugees beat the officers and soldiers until they wailed repeatedly.
The wailing officers and soldiers did not notice that their master's carriage had slowly left their sight.
The excited refugees did not notice this.
Wang Goudan carefully paid attention to the refugees in front of him, and at the same time, he paid attention to the brothers who were preparing to sneak across.
After seeing that his brothers had succeeded, he followed the refugees to attack the officers and soldiers, while slowly retreating without leaving a trace.
After retreating to a relatively safe distance, he turned around and ran quickly to his previous location.
At that time, there was not only an ox cart parked, but also a carriage with more space.
Shangguan Wai and his son were both paunchy and covered in flesh. The carriage they were riding in was specially built, so the space was extra spacious and comfortable.
For the Ji family, who had so many people crowded into a bullock cart, this carriage was a life-saver. Even Mrs. Ji, who was originally very worried, now had a smile on her face.
Brother Ji Er and Brother Ji also have smiles on their faces.
The two of them had just secretly moved two bags of rice on the cart.
The bags containing rice are all huge bags, so it would not be a problem for so many of them to eat two bags of rice in Jiangnan.
And they themselves didn't dare to take too much. They could only succeed if the refugees' attention was not on them. If they took too much and were discovered, they might not be able to eat and carry around.
Seeing that his mother was so happy, Ji Liangqing called Mrs. Ji aside and gave Mrs. Ji all the gold and silver she had just obtained from Shangguan and his son.
Mrs. Ji opened it and saw a bag of gold leaves, and her breath paused for a moment.
Their family has been in business for so long, and they only have five hundred taels of silver on them, which was sewn tightly into the middle of clothes by Mrs. Ji.
Now, the value of this small pocket of gold leaves and a stack of silver notes has exceeded all their family's savings.
"Where did you get this from?"
Mrs. Ji asked in a low voice.
Ji Liangqing nodded: "All of them."
Shangguan was just a small official, but he was able to accumulate such a large fortune, which shows that he had a lot of shady income on weekdays.
This money comes from the people, and there is nothing wrong with them taking it.
