Jiang Chaoge paused briefly and said, "It's still the assumption just now!"
"Suppose I am a silver thief. In addition to considering where to hide the money, I will also consider one thing, which is how to hide the money as quickly and conveniently as possible after I get it."
After speaking, he pointed to the cliff: "Although the cliff is good, it is very troublesome to carry three hundred thousand taels of silver. You may even need to use some ropes and other tools."
"And once tools are used, they will definitely leave some marks on the cliff. As a result, the cliff is not the best choice."
Jiang Chaoge pointed to the boulder again: "This stone was originally on the cliff. Digging a hole under the stone will not only make it easier to transport, but in a sense it will be safer."
"Because no one would think that the silver is hidden under the stone. The most important thing is that it will not leave any traces. After the silver is successfully transferred, the hole can be filled up!"
Everyone was silent.
There was no sound except the sound of rain.
Liang Wan'er waited for a while before speaking leisurely: "So, you guessed... that the silver would be hidden under the stone? And then, it was found like this?"
Liang Wan'er actually wanted to say that this was not something that a normal person could guess at all, right?
But this is how Captain Jiang guessed it.
What else could she say?
"Wonderful, Capt. Jiang's reasoning and speculation may seem too bold at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it is perfectly coherent, well-founded and admirable." Ji Ruxue did not hide her admiration for Capt. Jiang in front of her.
.
"It's just a small trick. If Miss Ji were in my position, she would definitely guess it faster than me." Jiang Chaoge wanted to enter the Night Detective Division, and Ji Ruxue was the key, so he was not stingy about patting her on the butt.
Ji Ruxue had no intention of evading, and allowed Jiang to slap her: "I heard that the Liang family once promised Jiang Baotou the position of Chief Thousand President of the River Governance Office, but was rejected by Jiang Baotou. I wonder if this is the case?"
"What? Mr. Qian of the River Management Office?"
Zhang Shitou and others were shocked again. This was a huge mistake.
Jiang Touer actually refused?
"That's right." Jiang Chaoge nodded. Wasn't this asking questions knowingly? You were in Liang Mansion that day, right?
"Just because you want to save Magistrate Zhou?" Ji Ruxue asked again.
"Yes, Magistrate Zhou has been kind to me, and I should repay him. What's the point of a little future?" Jiang Chaoge said this without blushing or heartbeat.
But when Zhang Shitou and others heard it, their feelings were different. When they looked at Jiang Chaoge, they seemed to see a ray of light.
Jiang Touer is truly a hero!
"Captain Jiang really values love and righteousness." Ji Ruxue's lips raised slightly: "Now that the money has been recovered, Magistrate Zhou is expected to be released soon. Has Captou Jiang had any new considerations?"
Are you planning to recruit me? Jiang Chaoge's eyes lit up, "Come on, I, Mr. Jiang, are ready."
"Miss Ji, you mean the Night Detective Division?"
"Exactly. I wonder if Mr. Jiang would be willing to join?"
"Can you allow me to think about it for some time..." Jiang Chaoge felt happy in his heart.
But he still had to pretend to be calm on the surface. After all, he had just rejected Mr. Qian, so if he agreed to join the Night Detective Division so easily, it would look a bit "impure".
"Bronze Banner, if Capt. Jiang is willing to join the Night Reconnaissance Division, I will promise Capt. Jiang a position in the Bronze Banner." Ji Ruxue had obviously made up her mind to eat Jiang Chaoge.
"Bronze flag?!"
Zhang Shitou was shocked immediately.
Oh my god!
Jiang Touer is going to soar into the sky!
It's true that the Hedao Administration Office is a rich job, but the Night Investigation Department is the real center of power. It is directly under the imperial power and supervises hundreds of officials. Which one is not better than a Hedao?
What's more, it's still a Bronze Flag, which is much better than a Qian Zong.
Jiang Chaoge was actually stunned for a moment. He thought it would be good to join the Night Detective Division, but as a result, Ji Ruxue threw a bronze flag when she came up?
Good guy, are you going to hit me with your high position?
How can I, a tall and dignified man named Jiang, be allowed to eat such soft food as you?
"In this case, it would be disrespectful for Erlang to refuse any more." Jiang Chaoge immediately agreed. In order to catch ghosts and subjugate demons, help the country, and save the people from the fire and water, he decided to endure the humiliation and bear the heavy burden.
What's there to fear about eating soft food?
Mr. Jiang is dedicated to cultivating immortality and is capable of both bending and stretching!
"Okay, but if you want to truly become a member of the Night Detective Division, you still have to go through the required procedures. I hope Captain Jiang doesn't mind." Ji Ruxue raised the corners of her mouth a little higher.
"That's natural."
As for the assessment, Jiang Chaoge had already predicted it: "Since Miss Ji is my guide, there is no need to be polite and call me Jiang Baotou. You can just call me Erlang."
"Er... Erlang?" Liang Waner looked at Jiang Chaoge with a strange look.
Ji Ruxue looked indifferent: "Okay, the assessment I gave Erlang is very simple. Just ask Erlang to guess what happened in Lingzhu Temple a year ago?"
"???" Jiang Chaoge.
"If Erlang can guess it, the position of the bronze flag belongs to Erlang. If he can't guess it, it doesn't matter. We just need to start as a night watchman. Time...it's limited to seven days, how about it?" Ji Ruxue
Smile sweetly.
Good guy, are you testing yourself?
Jiang Chaoge finally understood why Ji Ruxue was so generous in granting him a bronze flag. It turned out that Ji Ruxue never believed that he could guess where the disaster relief money was hidden.
This woman is unfathomable!
Of course, Jiang Chaoge also has his own strengths and is not afraid: "One word is a deal!"
"Haha, it's a deal!"
Ji Ruxue smiled, and then led Liang Wan'er back to the sedan.
Kuroko and Baizi lifted up the wooden sedan and walked towards the way they came.
When the sedan chair disappeared, Jiang Chaoge turned his attention to Zhang Shitou and others: "You guys go find some wooden carts nearby and transport the silver back to Huai'an. I have some things to do here."
"Jiang Tou'er is going to Lingzhu Temple?" Zhang Shitou came over.
"Asking even though you know it."
"Yes, yes, brother, you are too talkative. When Jiang Tou'er enters the Night Detective Department, he must take more care of his brothers!"
"Well, when you get back, don't peek at your sister-in-law's milk baby again, it will hurt your health!" Jiang Chao said in a serious tone.
"???" Zhang Shitou.
All the arresters were shocked, and their eyes brightened when they looked at Zhang Shitou.
…
The rain is gradually falling.
There was only one person left on the cliff, Jiang Chaoge.
He did not go to Lingzhu Temple because he was already there.
It's almost dawn.
Tonight is coming to an end.
He wanted to try his luck one last time to see if Zhou Jiaoer would show up. If he couldn't wait for Zhou Jiaoer tonight, he would have to come again tomorrow.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a figure appearing on the cliff.
It was a girl wearing an ancient blue dress. A yellow and white belt tied the girl's slender waist, and her disheveled hair covered her face.
