Treasure? There seems to be nothing more touching than this. Qiao Yu has also heard that Shi Dakai had hidden a lot of treasures before his death, but he didn't expect this to be true?

"My father discovered a dilapidated temple not far from the Dadu River. Unexpectedly, there was a basement under the dilapidated temple, but it was empty. My father simply hid all the gold, silver and treasures he brought around, as well as some precious calligraphy and paintings. It would be worth about hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in total, but it was a bit far from Chongqing. If the young master was short of money, he might as well find this treasure!"

When Qiao Yu heard that it was only a few hundred thousand taels, and there were many calligraphy and paintings, he suddenly became less interested. Although this money was a lot, it would not be difficult for him. Moreover, the treasure was too far from Chongqing, so he would stay there. When Sichuan was cast down in the future and then take it out, it might become a tourist attraction in the future. Moreover, the cultural relics of these things are far more valuable than economic value, which is proof of a period of history of China.

Qiao Yu asked with a smile: "Shishubao's treasure is of great value. This is your family's wealth. Why do you want to give it to me?"

"It's all external things. My father's hero has died tragically at the hands of the Qing court. Now that I'm at this age, I can see everything clearly. Being able to live is the greatest blessing!"

"In my opinion, I will keep it. If you take out the treasure in the future, maybe you can build a museum of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to record that period of history so that future generations can remember history!"

Shi Dingzhong still cared about his father very much. When he heard that he could build a museum, he was very happy. After dealing with Shi Dingzhong's affairs, Qiao Yu had another helper around him. Although Shi Dingzhong was in the officialdom for a long time, he was very clear about various rules and regulations, was very alert, and was mature and reliable in his work. He immediately helped Qiao Yu handle miscellaneous matters.

Moreover, Niu Chuanshan sent Shi Dingzhong to assist Qiao Yu, but in fact he planned to let him monitor Qiao Yu. However, these families became a family, and Niu Chuanshan was still kept in the dark and knew nothing.

With the completion of the second phase of the textile factory project, the output of the textile factory quadrupled. Soon, the products of Limin Textile Factory occupied most of the market in Dongchuan, and sales were very prosperous. Even Chengdu, southern Sichuan, some cloth shops selling Limin products appeared one after another, and this brand has been launched.

The match factory that cooperated with the British has also started production, and the high-quality and low-priced safety matches are also very prosperous. In addition, Wang Dongcheng, Wang Gui, Xue Shan and others either built factories alone or cooperated with Sichuan Investment Company to build flour mills, grey factories, brick factories, and furniture factories one after another. Xu Hua also set up a noodle factory ingeniously.

The history of Sichuan Zhongjiang noodle noodles has been around for more than a thousand years. The noodles are as thin as hair, white and hollow, smooth and flexible, with a unique flavor. They are like new when they are served, and they are very popular, but they are all produced in handicraft workshops. Of course, manual production is beneficial, but the output is limited and the price is also high.

Businessman Xu Hua ordered a batch of machines in Germany through cooperation with Sichuan Investment Company. The production was very large. Now, with the development of Chongqing's industry, a large number of working classes have emerged, and the pace of people's lives has also accelerated a lot. Therefore, many people are accustomed to buying this convenient and cheap food, which really made Xu Hua make a big profit and quickly recover his capital, and is preparing to expand the scale.

Time flies, and it is already April. Qiao Yu has recruited another thousand patrol officers. The first batch of 1,000 patrol officers have been able to perform tasks independently and firmly control the ground in Chongqing. The revolutionary party members can only retreat to the concession. However, these party members have been making small moves recently. Qiao Yu knows very well that this is the impending Huanghuagang Uprising, and the revolutionary party in Sichuan is also ready to respond, but its strength is limited and it has not been launched yet...

Thinking of the Huanghuagang Uprising, Qiao Yu unconsciously thought of Yu Peilun and others. This was the first person he met since he was reborn. In a trance, Qiao Yu seemed to have seen Yu Peilun. Qin Bing and the others were covered in blood and died. Just when Qiao Yu was in a mess, he suddenly heard the door being knocked open and ran in stumbled.

Qiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes and saw that he was his elder brother Qiao Cheng. In the past, Qiao Cheng was calm and steady, and had never lost his composure. But now Qiao Cheng had a purple-green face and a look of sadness and anger were shrouded in his eyebrows.

"Brother, what happened? You are more anxious, let's find a way to solve it."

"San, look at this!"

Qiao Yu took the telegram from his elder brother in confusion. After glanced at him, he suddenly became a little overwhelmed. No wonder Qiao Cheng was so incompetent. It turned out that Qiao Cheng's wife and daughter were all robbed by a group of robbers. These robbers asked to redeem people with 300,000 taels of silver. I'm afraid anyone who has done this kind of thing would lose their composure. Qiao Yu's mind was turning quickly while holding his elder brother.

"Brother, don't worry, your sister-in-law and niece will be safe. Let's calm down first and think about why the other party kidnapped her sister-in-law. We can prescribe the right medicine!"

Qiao Cheng also recovered a little, his face looked a little better: "Third brother, your sister-in-law and I have been with me for more than ten years. She is filial to my parents and has children for me. It's not easy for her to do so. Now she is in a thief's nest. I'm afraid she can't stand it!"

Qiao Yu nodded repeatedly, knowing his elder brother's concerns in his heart, and comforted him: "Since the elder brother wants money, in my opinion, my sister-in-law and niece must have nothing to do. Why not bring everyone here and let's discuss it together and think of a countermeasure!"

Qiao Cheng nodded in agreement. After a while, Bai Kuan, Han Yong, Wang Tianhe, Qian Tai, Shi Dingzhong, Wang Huai, Liu Yunhong and others all arrived at Qiao Yu's office. Qiao Yu handed the telegram to everyone. Everyone was very angry when they saw it. Isn't this a tide on Tai Sui's head?

Han Yong was deeply cared for by the Qiao family and had a very good impression of Qiao Cheng's wife. He was an extremely virtuous woman. If this kind of misfortune was bad, how could it not make people angry: "Young Master, don't worry, our subordinates need soldiers and money, and we can definitely save our grandma!"

"Brother Han, the person must be rescued, but now we need to discuss countermeasures. Do you have any knowledge about the Tiangang Village where you robbed your sister-in-law? Do they have any collusion with your elder brother?" Qiao Yu has calmed down now, and his thoughts are particularly clear.

"The General Office was worried that this time the people from Ge Laohui were in revenge and contacted the bandits to rob the big grandma. I don't think there was any need to worry like this. I still have some understanding of Tiangang Village. At first, a few big thieves and some rioters who were making trouble. There were thirty-six people in total, so they called Tiangang Village. They moved around Fengdu and made a living by robbing merchants. The government also cleared several times. However, due to the special terrain, these thieves were too fierce and failed. I think these thieves were probably crazy and wanted to blackmail us. But they must rescue the big grandma quickly, otherwise it would be difficult to guarantee that the well-informed brother would take any action!"

Shi Dingzhong is worthy of being a worldly person. He quickly explained the matter clearly. Most of the big stones in Qiao Yu's heart fell down. It was much easier to deal with simply robbery. Whether it was hard or soft, it was easier to deal with.

"San Young Master, do you want to agree to this group of thieves? We still have more than 100,000 taels of silver on the books. If we raise some more, it is not difficult to raise 300,000 taels!" This time, the person who spoke was Qian Tai. He is the old man of the Qiao family. He now has the accounts. Although Qiao Yu is selling very much now, the real funds are not sufficient. After all, a large number of factories have just started production and have not yet recovered their capital.

"It must not be like this. If we withdraw 300,000 taels of silver now, most of our plans will be put aside. I will never agree!" Qiao Cheng felt sorry for his wife and daughter, but he also knew how difficult it was for Chongqing's foundation. If it was delayed, the losses would be too great, so he was in a dilemma!

At this time, Wang Huai suddenly stood up: "Young Master, I have heard of Tiangang Village. They were despicable and had once washed away the family of Wang Caizhu in our village. Five years ago, Chen Heihu, the leader of Tiangang Village, kidnapped Wang Caizhu's daughter and blackmailed 30,000 silver. Wang Caizhu spent all his family property and collected all the money. Unexpectedly, Chen Heihu had already ravaged his daughter to death, and killed all their family and looted them all. My family escaped to Wanxian after that! This group of evil thieves are the most vicious!"
