There were so many assets in Obai's family that even counting them would take a long time. Qin Ran squinted on his chair for a while and felt too bored. He simply called Obai's housekeeper and came to Obai's treasure house.
"Is this the treasure house of Obai?"
Qin Ran looked at Butler Obai calmly.
"Your Excellency, this is the treasure house of the traitor Obai. Most of Obai's treasures are placed here!"
"Um!"
Qin Ran nodded.
He turned around and looked at the things in the treasure house. Most of them were gold and silver treasures, but these things couldn't escape, so Qin Ran didn't take it to heart.
"Does Obai have any treasures?"
Obai's housekeeper hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Yes!"
He walked to the wall, stretched out his hand and turned a switch. Suddenly, a hidden compartment opened, containing a dagger and a white-gold coat.
The housekeeper handed these two items to Qin Ran respectfully, "Sir, these are the cold light dagger and the soft hedgehog armor. One is as sharp as clay and the other is invulnerable. They are the most cherished treasures of the traitor Obai!"
"oh?"
Qin Ran pulled the dagger out of the scabbard out of curiosity, and suddenly felt a chill coming from the dagger.
This frightened Qin Ran, and he curiously picked up the dagger and stabbed it at the wall next to him.
Phew!
As if being stabbed into mud, the wall paved with hard blue bricks barely blocked the dagger for a moment before the dagger was inserted easily.
"Good knife!"
Qin Ran's eyes were full of amazement, such a powerful dagger, I don't know what material it is made of, but it is so sharp, but now it's easier for me!
A smile appeared in Qin Ran's eyes. He calmly put the dagger into his sleeve, and then looked at the soft hedgehog armor.
This soft hedgehog armor is cold to the touch. Although the texture is a bit rough to the touch, it is still soft and can be worn easily on the body.
Similarly, Qin Ran also put away his soft hedgehog armor, which was a good thing that could save his life in critical moments.
After getting these two treasures, Qin Ran walked out refreshed and came to the front of the living room of Obai's mansion.
At this time, Duolong came over holding the account book.
"Sir, after our preliminary calculation, Obai's total family property is a total of 380,000 taels."
There was a hint of flattery in Duolong's expression, but Qin Ran didn't accept this trick.
He knew that Obai's total family property could reach 13.8 million taels, but Duolong told himself that it was only 380,000 taels. It was clear that he wanted to swallow up the rest of the property!
What a greedy guy! He’s not afraid of dying!
Qin Ran glanced at Duolong strangely, then gritted his teeth and said: "Obai, this traitor, has actually made so much money out of the people. What I hate most in my life is corruption!"
As he said that, Qin Ran pointed his finger at Duolong deliberately, "I must tell the emperor to cut the corrupt people into quarters!"
Hearing Qin Ran's threatening words, Duolong was shocked and secretly thought that it was not good. He could only rub his eyes and said with a smile: "Sir, I was wrong. Obai's family property should be three hundred and eighty-eight dollars."
One hundred thousand taels is right."
"Hmph! It's already here, and you still want to take the big head?"
Qin Ran sneered in his heart, but on the surface he was furious. He grabbed Duolong and glared at him and said: "Obai, this corrupt official! He has stolen so much money! I must appeal to the emperor again and let him
What do you think about the emperor restarting the Ming Dynasty’s skinning method to deal with corrupt officials?”
Cold sweat flowed from Duolong's forehead, and he swallowed, knowing that Qin Ran must have seen through his thoughts, so he could only reply tremblingly:
"Sir...Sir, I can see clearly now that Obai's total assets are 13.8 million taels, and there are still many that have not been recorded. I suggest that you move them all to your residence and wait for your Majesty."
Count them carefully before submitting them."
After being threatened many times by Qin Ran, Duolong was a little scared.
Qin Ran nodded with satisfaction, "That's right. Don't worry, as long as I can eat enough, I won't be short of your big brother's meat!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Duolong cursed greed in his heart, but he could only acquiesce to the fact that Qin Ran was the leader of this house raid.
This property raid lasted for several days and was mainly used to inventory Obai's fields and some other fixed assets.
Qin Ran used secret operations to buy these properties at low prices and sell them at high prices, and successfully cashed out a large part of them.
In the end, he probably took away more than eight million taels of silver, and then distributed two million silver to Duolong and the soldiers who were responsible for ransacking the house.
This move actually won over the hearts and minds of many guards.
What was finally handed over to Kangxi was only 3.8 million taels of silver, and the rest of the money was basically divided up!
After receiving more than eight million taels of cash, Kieran breathed a sigh of relief. This money was his real purpose, and it was also the real purpose of him blindly following the plot in the early stage!
Recruiting troops and buying horses to overthrow the rule of the Qing Dynasty all depends on this money.
In addition, Qin Ran also found a forty-two chapter scripture from Obai's collection.
These forty-two chapters clearly record the locations of the treasures that were burned, killed, and looted when the Qing army entered the Pass.
Of course, this is of no use to him. He knows the plot well and already knows where the treasure is!
It’s just that it’s not convenient to pick it up now!
During this period, Qin Ran bought a large house in the capital. After all, he no longer had the status of a eunuch and could no longer live in the palace permanently. He had to have a place to stay outside.
After the confiscation of Aobai's home was completely over, Qin Ran returned to the palace and returned to Kangxi.
Although he and Duolong deducted 70% of Obai's family property, the remaining 3.8 million yuan also made Kangxi furious.
However, Qin Ran didn't care about this. After he was restored to life, he didn't leave the palace in a hurry. He first played with Jianning for a while, and then, with Jianning's handwriting, he came to the palace, where the eunuchs lived together.
After twisting and turning, Qin Ran came to a remote courtyard, which was the training ground for all the eunuchs who had just completed their purification.
And here, he successfully found the original protagonist of the plot, Wei Xiaobao.
The eunuch who had just finished cutting would not be able to get off the ground for a few months, so at this time, Wei Xiaobao was lying on the bed weakly with his head hanging down.
After dismissing the rest, Qin Ran came to Wei Xiaobao and asked: "Little eunuch, what is your name?"
Wei Xiaobao glanced at Qin Ran feebly. He thought it was the eunuch delivering food, and cursed: "It's none of your business! Where is the food you brought? Put it down and get out!"
After becoming an eunuch, Wei Xiaobao was very unhappy. He mostly cursed when talking to others, just to vent his anger.
"Haha!" Qin Ran did not scold him back, but smiled and whispered in Wei Xiaobao's ear: "Brother Wei, I am a member of the Tiandihui, and I am the internal support of Mr. Chen in the palace. I spent a lot of time
I just found you, why did you come here to be a eunuch?"
