Chapter 61 Two Big Copper Boxes

 Laoshi Alley is in full swing.

After the cartloads of earth and materials were brought out, Gao An stood at the entrance of the alley, directing his men.

"Be careful, be careful, don't block other people's business."

"The wind is strong today, so the cloth on the cart should be covered more tightly to prevent dust from blowing everywhere."

At the corner, an old man leaned on a cane and asked: "Dong Gao's house, didn't you say that it was almost cleaned up a few days ago? Why are there still so many? Please be careful, the old man has a bad throat and coughs."

"Originally, it's almost done," Gao An shielded the old man from the wind. "There are several houses with poor foundations. I thought it would be better to strengthen one of them. I might as well do it all, so I can build a house with peace of mind."

"That's right," the old man nodded, "then hurry up, and if it doesn't work, just sprinkle some water on it, so that the gray old man can't bear it."

Gao An was in a hurry to respond.

After seeing the old man off, his eyes glanced at the corner not far away.

He had already discovered those two familiar faces.

What I just said was meant not only for the people nearby, but also for those two people.

Regardless of whether the two owners are looking for treasures or not, they have to strengthen the foundation. Then the people must know that if they rent a house in the coming year, the feng shui will be good, and the quality will not be picky.

At the same time, create a fascination array for those two scoundrel-eyed things to make them think that reinforcement is the purpose.

After the news was released, Gao An took action.

A few strong men received the order and blocked the corner in an instant. The people inside had no time to react before they were lifted in front of Gao An.

"What are you doing? What have we done? Why are you still arresting us?"

Gao An glared and put on a fierce look: "I've been staring at you for several days, and it turns out you are not a good person."

"Hey? How did you say that? Did I choose what I look like?"

"Stop talking nonsense," Gao An waved his hand, "If you have anything to say, go to the Yamen and tell it."

The two people were dumbfounded.

Why do you still need to go to the Yamen?

They haven't done anything yet!

Seeing that the two of them were struggling, Gao An said again: "Come to the Yamen with me, tie them up and throw them on the cart and push them to the Yamen. Choose one by yourself."

Knowing they couldn't escape, the two exchanged glances and chose the first one.

As for the latter one, just think about it and you will know how embarrassing it is.

Shuntianfuli.

Hao Tongpan had been busy for almost a day, and after beating his sore arm, he hurriedly ran out when the clerk said that Gao An had escorted two people.

"What's going on? Are you stealing things or robbing things? Is there anything else that a thief can like in Lao Shi Alley?"

Gao An saluted: "The villains don't know what they are looking at. They poke their heads at the entrance of the alley every day, but at first glance they are not at ease. They don't know what they are planning."

Hao Tongpan said "ah".

He was taken into custody just because of this. Should he say that Gao's security measures were very thorough?

"Brother Gao," he patted Gao An on the shoulder and whispered, "It's not that I'm passing the blame. It's really because they didn't take action. Even when Master Shan came to see them, they couldn't be taken into custody."

Gao An took Hao Tongpan another two steps to the side.

He was originally a businessman and had a sharp tongue. Although Liao Zi only said to send him to the Yamen when conveying the opinions of his masters, he still thought of some words.

"In Laoshi Lane, the Jingdong family is the main one, and the villain is the assistant. Now that the Jingdong family is not in the capital, the villain can't keep up his spirits? If something happens, there is no way to explain it to the Jingdong family," Gao An said with a sad face.

, "As the saying goes, you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid that thieves will miss you. What if they really want to cause damage in Lao Shi Alley?

The previous fire caused a lot of criticism in Shuntian Mansion. Seeing that the Jingdong family took over, the Yamen also compensated the people who were affected by the disaster. As long as the new alley is repaired, you will not only feel proud, but at least you will not have to worry about it anymore.

Worry about that mess.

But if something goes wrong because of these two guys with ulterior motives..."

Hao Tongpan listened.

A few days ago, he sent out the last payment of compensation, bound the received documents into a volume, and gave them to Shan Fuyin for review.

Mr. Shan was really happy at the time and said, "At least it will give them money to spend a good Mid-Autumn Festival" and "I will go and have a look when Laoshi Lane is repaired"...

Hao Tongpan turned his head and squinted his eyes to look at the two people carefully.

With his ghostly head and grimace, you can tell he has seen rats and dogs stealing things!

Hao Tongpan went to find Shan Shen.

Shan Shen brought his master here.

The killing stick and the gavel will definitely not be used, but without asking a few questions, Shan Shen himself would not be at ease.

"What's your name, where are you from, and what are you doing outside Lao Shi Alley?"

Although he did not kneel in the court, Shan Shen's official uniform still gave the two people a great intimidation.

"Little Wang Si, this is Wang San, we are brothers."

"They are all from Beijing. I used to live in Laoshi Lane. I just went to see them clean it up. I really didn't do anything bad."

Shan Shen snorted coldly: "You despise me and regard me as a faint-hearted official? What were the names of every household in Laoshi Lane at that time? Who escaped and who was killed? I know it all by heart! It has nothing to do with you two!"



"Live, live in Liuli Hutong," Wang San shrank his neck, "I wanted to find a job in Laoshi Alley to earn some money, so I hung out there..."

"Bah! Which boss would dare to recruit you to work after wandering around all day?" Shan Shen cursed and let it go.

After all, these two people have not committed any crime yet.

Before releasing them, Shan Shen threatened: "If anything happens in Lao Shi Alley in the future, I will ask you only!"

With this on the surface, Shan Fuyin returned to the inner hall, found an astute government official, and said: "Follow me and find out what they are going to do in Lao Shi Alley!"

As for Wang San and Wang Si, they ran for three streets before stopping after leaving the Yamen.

The two brothers supported each other, panting heavily, and scolded Gao An so hard that their trip to the Yamen was in vain.

Even if you don't have to face a ban, it's not a good thing to see an official.

Tough luck!

Bad luck!

The two people who were cursing did not notice that there were two officials in civilian clothes staring at them not far behind them.

Of course, none of these four people knew that the person across the street who was watching expressionlessly while biting a candied haws on a stick was none other than Xuan Su.

The sugar coating crunched in his mouth. Xuan Su looked at the Wang brothers and then at the officer.

It seems that the Duke of Guo really expected it.

As long as the Gao Dong family takes someone to the Yamen, Master Shan will definitely remember it in his heart.

This is the "life of hard work".

If all the officials were such people, then the common people would be much more at ease.

On the other side, Gao An returns to Lao Shi Lane.

Knowing that something would be excavated, he personally supervised the work and selected three groups of trustworthy people to start digging three houses at a time. The remaining people would load the trucks, carry them, and fill in the soil to consolidate the previously dug foundations.

After all, I’m not idle either.

Gao An agreed to pay more for the temporarily added process and worked on it overnight.

At half past midnight, Gao An, who was so busy after drinking strong tea to wake up from fatigue, was called to a place. He looked at the foundation where a hole had been dug, and his throat rolled.

In the cave, there are two large copper boxes.

This must be the treasure the princess wants!

The big baby was dug out~

Thanks to book friend Xu Bicheng’s official girlfriend, Trina, for updating the devil’s reward.
