Chapter 137 Lake Bandits Stolen Possessions
The bushes on the left are particularly lush.
If you look closely, you will find that the soil quality under the bushes is also different from other places.
Someone once fertilized here.
Which person who is full and has nothing to do would go to such a small island to fertilize it?
Unless he wants to hide something deliberately.
For example... stolen goods or something.
Also, bushes grow differently, and many of them grow back slowly after being broken.
Why is this happening?
Someone has passed through it.
When Mi Zilang pushed aside the bushes, there was a rock blocking the road in front of him.
Under the inspiration of Chief Meng, he also began to learn to think and observe.
Not long after, he discovered a cave that was carefully covered with stones and weeds.
He bent down and got into the cave, and soon came out with the first box.
No wonder, that time, I and Xue Sanqiang came here and waited on the boat for a long time before Xue Sanqiang came back, looking exhausted.
Because he had to walk a long way with that box, and then he had to cover all traces before he could come back.
With his small stature, he was able to accomplish these things that were far beyond his physical strength solely due to his perseverance and the potential inspired by his extreme greed.
But Yoneziro was not surprised. If it were him, he would have done the same thing.
What shocked him was that Chief Meng really let the dead "speak"!
Terrible powers of observation and precise judgment and analysis.
Mi Zilang no longer knows what words to use to describe it.
There are a total of twelve boxes hidden in the cave.
This is the wealth accumulated by the Xue family as bandits for generations.
One box after another was opened.
Gold, silver, ocean, exquisite utensils, jade pendants for men, jewelry for women, Western watches, green and transparent emeralds, crystal clear gems...
There is a dazzling array of items, just like a department store.
When the Xue family is a lake bandit, they really can rob anything and want everything.
"I have long heard that after Xue Sanqiang hijacked a merchant ship, he would immediately sell the goods on the ship and exchange them for gold, silver, ocean or any other valuable things. After giving some to his men, the rest would be his own."
Mi Zilang stared blankly at the twelve boxes: "It's a pity that his family has been bandits for three generations, but they still work for Chief Meng."
Meng Shaoyuan smiled.
This guy can talk.
Three generations of the Xue family are my own wage earners.
A greedy person ends up losing what he values most.
Including his life.
Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "A bandit is a bandit. Alas, how do we get these ten boxes back? That is the real troublesome thing."
Ten mouths?
Isn't it twelve mouths?
Mi Zilang was startled for a moment, then realized: "Mr. Meng, I really admire you, but your arithmetic is not very good. There are only five boxes here. Zi Lang really doesn't know why you counted them successfully."
Ten mouthfuls.”
A subordinate who is smart and good at observing what is happening is what any leader likes.
Meng Shaoyuan hesitated.
Most of it turned dark at once. It seemed a little too dark, right?
But if you think about it more carefully, you have to pay for this with your own life.
do not care.
"Oh, sir, I'm really not good at arithmetic. There are really only five people."
Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "Zi Lang, we will take these things back later. If you take a bite, it will count as a hard work for you and me."
This is a reward for him and also a hush money.
Mi Zilang said without thinking: "Even if Chief Meng doesn't ask, Zilang still wants to ask Chief Meng for what he wants. Xue Sanqiang's men are mixed, good and bad. Zilang plans to eliminate the old and weak, leaving the strong and strong to form the main backbone of the Taihu Militia.
Chief Meng, Zilang thought, I'm afraid the higher-ups of the Taihu Vigilante Group will not allocate funds. They have to think of their own solutions. They can't plunder anymore, right?
So I want to convert all the boxes given by the commander into cash, part of which will be used to reward the members of the vigilante group and improve their morale, and the other part will be reserved for future funding, and maybe it can be invested in business for a long-term plan."
Meng Shaoyuan's previous appointment of Mi Zilang as the leader of the vigilante group was just a temporary measure. He didn't expect that this guy actually had some ability and had such a long-term vision.
Mi Zilang came from an innocent family, was educated and educated, but was just forced to become a bandit.
Now that I can have a good family background, I must be thinking very hard about how to serve Commander Meng.
Meng Shaoyuan also decided that when he returned to Nanjing this time, he would plead desperately in front of Dai Li to see if he could turn the Taihu Militia into a real armed force.
Then give Yonzilang a serious appointment.
In this way, it is equivalent to making up for one of its shortcomings, and it will be able to have a paramilitary force that can be called upon at any time in the future.
"Sir Meng, Zilang also has a bold suggestion. Sir, there is no harm in taking these golden oceans back, but the other things seem to be inconvenient to carry. It is better to stay in Jiangyin for the time being, and Zilang will find a way to help you cash them out slowly.
"
Meng Shaoyuan was thinking about how to tell Dai Li when he went back, and casually said "Oh".
However, Mi Zilang misunderstood: "Also, Zilang's wife has long wanted to visit a big city, so this time Zilang took the liberty to ask Chief Meng to take her to Nanjing for a while. My wife's belly has already
She is three months pregnant and is Zilang’s only offspring..."
Only then did Meng Shaoyuan suddenly wake up.
Emotional Yoneziro is worried that he won't trust him and will hack these things, so he uses his wife and future children as hostages?
"Your wife, why are you following me?" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "And your child, do you want me to help you raise your child? The whole family eats and uses mine? How can there be such a good thing in the world?
matter?
Please help me deal with the things. It doesn’t matter if it takes a little longer. My wife and children should stay with you and you can take care of them yourself. I will never raise other people’s wives and children."
Seeing that Chief Meng trusted him so much, Mi Zilang felt so grateful that even his voice became choked up:
"Zi Lang lost his life as a bandit. Today he has to start a new life and gain the trust and respect of the superior. From now on, he must do his best and break his bones to repay the kindness of the superior. If Zi Lang steals a dollar, the sky will thunder and his wife will die and his children will die!"
This poison was sworn by.
"Zi Lang, you don't have to swear like that, you can't run away even if you want to. Although the world is big, if I want to find someone, even a dead person will talk to me."
Meng Shaoyuan was extremely skillful in combining kindness and power:
"Do your best to help me, and I will never treat you badly. I will always give you a good background in the future."
…
It is not an easy task for just two people to transport all twelve boxes back and hide them from others.
Meng Shaoyuan and Mi Zilang were careful, and it took them two days to transport them all. They were both exhausted.
I found a safe place and hid seven boxes.
