Travel through ancient times and become a great hero
Chapter 116 The Rich Old Man Luo
"I just remembered who I am...I'll tell you when I have time to think about it." Situ Jin frowned and thought for a while.
"No hurry, no hurry. Don't think about it! Take some time to recover." Charlotte quickly stopped him from thinking too much.
"Let's go pick some fruits and send them to Brother Xia and the others, then we'll go find a house."
"Well. Lolo, don't be angry. I will tell you when I remember it." Situ Jin thought Xia Luo was unhappy.
"I'm afraid you'll damage your brain. I'm not unhappy."
"That's good." Situ Jin breathed a sigh of relief. Why did he feel a little nervous when he saw Charlotte?
The two of them left the space and gave the memorial to Zhang Jierui, asking him to leave immediately and come back quickly.
Let Tiandong lead the warhorse over, and tell Tiandong and Shizhu to follow them. Because they will release the people from the space soon, safety will be a problem.
They don’t know who the people who are put into the space are, so if there is a powerful killer, they will be caught off guard.
She did have cartilage powder pills in her space, but she couldn't make everyone weak. This was too obvious. She still didn't want to expose her space.
While she was thinking about this and that, Situ Jin spoke.
"Lolo, what if there are powerful people in the space? Meizhou Pu can't have detained useless people in the underground castle for so many years. He must be planning to get a high position himself or support others to get a high position."
"It's not a fantasy that more than 3,000 people are his assassins. The people are here. It's easier to deal with the women. If it doesn't work, let some of them go first. Let's get some information first." Xia Luo agreed with Situ Jin's analysis.
"I think it's okay, it's safer this way." Situ Jin thought it was better to be safe. Otherwise, they were few in number, and it would be more trouble than gain if they caused unrest.
There are still Meizhou Pu's cronies on the city wall that have not been cleared. If they unite, the situation in Xijiang will be uncontrollable. Far water cannot quench near thirst. Xiang Rong can help, but he has just taken office and has only about fifty people under him.
From a human resources perspective, we dare not act rashly.
Zhang Jierui is probably on his way to Beijing. Even if he is here, it won't solve the problem.
"I forgot. I should ask Dad just now. He has been in there for more than ten years. He must know some clues."
"Then go back and ask Dad." Situ Jin led the horse back.
Tiandong and Shizhu were confused.
"Ah. You guys go to the prefect and wait for us first. We'll be right back."
Tiandong and Shizhu didn't know what their two masters were doing, so they had no choice but to go to the prefect and wait.
They arrived at Meizhou Pu's house and went straight to the house where the old man lived.
Four guards came over and saluted at the same time.
"You guys go about your business. I just want to ask my father something." The four guards walked away tactfully.
"Dad, Situ Jin and I are here to see you."
"You just left, why are you back again? Is there something wrong?" The old man was also very sensitive.
"Dad, can you tell us how you lived in the underground castle for more than ten years?"
"You want to know who those people in the underground castle are?" The old man hit the nail on the head.
"Look at my dad. He's been in the underground castle for so many years, but his mind is still so sharp."
"I have to pretend to be stupid to stay alive, otherwise the grass on my grave would have grown to a foot high."
There was shrewdness and wisdom in the old man's eyes.
That story begins with the time I was robbed by Meizhou Pu.
That year I was selling raisins and melons in Xinjiang, and many people looked down on me.
Grapes are produced in abundance here, but many farmers who grow grapes cannot sell them, so they have to dry them and store them.
I went to the town in the Western Regions by going around Nanyang. I saw that the products there were different from ours, and there was a shortage of fruit.
I got some various fish, pearls, agates, and spices from the small town and brought them back to Xinjiang to sell.
Because I have to go through the border gate to enter the country, I have to build a good relationship with the gatekeepers here.
Meizhou Pu didn't notice me at first because there were so many merchants walking around, and I was alone.
Later, I saw that they were too greedy, so I had to give them one-third of the silver every time. So I built an underground warehouse so that money could be transported in from outside, which reduced my contact with them.
Later, someone leaked the news that I had made a lot of money doing business in Nanyang. Meizhou Pu started to investigate me. At first, he threatened me that if I didn't hand over the money, he would kill the entire Lihua family. Later, he sent people to follow me to Nanyang to get in touch with all my regular customers.
When I saw that this business was going to fail, I moved all the assets to the underground warehouse. I gave him the raisins and melons and let them sell them themselves. I pretended to be stupid. I have seen too many things in this over the past decade.
They took those who had money to the underground castle and robbed them of all their assets.
Bring in people with strong martial arts skills to help them. As for what they want to do, I don’t know.
I couldn't go out and I didn't dare walk around.
Once a gang of killers lived in the corridor next to mine, and I could hear them talking.
They said that General Mei asked them to transport gold ore, and everyone was blindfolded, but this man was very powerful and could tell that it was a canyon even with his eyes closed.
There are some prisoners mining there.
Because all of them had been poisoned by Meizhou Pu, they dared not disobey.
Come back and stay here obediently.
I found out that all the people with martial arts skills were controlled by Meizhou Pu. The person who poisoned was a woman sent from the Western Regions. She was said to be a master of poisoning.
The man was among those women.
Situ Jin looked at Charlotte, which meant that they had discovered two Western women, one was Tasha and the other was her servant Naza. Could it be her?
"Got it, Dad. Then let's get busy. We will return to the capital in a week. I have already informed my uncle Tiebushan. Ask him to take my mother to the capital."
"Dad, Luo Luo will be coming of age next year, and you and mom will have to come over. Why don't you go to the capital to meet mom first? If you want to go back, it won't be too late to go back together later."
Situ Jin was afraid that the old man would not go to the capital with them. He quickly explained that it was Xia Luo's coming-of-age ceremony and both parents had to be present.
"I will definitely go to my daughter's coming-of-age ceremony. Daddy will give you a great gift then."
Oh my god. This father is so rich. The assets here are enough to make him rich. And there is a big gift?
"Dad, I just hope you and mom can live the second half of your life in good health and happiness. It's not easy to work hard in the first half of your life, so you should learn to enjoy life in the second half."
"Dad, I can give Luo Luo a good life and make her happy. You and mom can enjoy the rest of your life."
"My property in Nanyang is no worse than here. Thanks to Dad's foresight, he turned all the money there into fixed assets. Otherwise, it would have all been taken away by Meizhou Pu. It would have been difficult for Dad to pretend to be stupid. He was really stupid."
"When we return to the capital, you can testify against Meizhou Pu's evil deeds and give justice to those merchants in the underground castle." Situ Jin thought that if this testimony was feasible, those merchants would probably be grateful to them and work for them.
"Oh, by the way, there is also an official appointed by the imperial court in here, an exiled prisoner, who has offered many strategies to Meizhou Pu Ke. But it seems that this person has not lived in here for more than two years."
