Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

Shen Yuanjing's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he said calmly, "I heard that Dongchuan is covered in ice and snow for half of the year, and my elder brother has used all his money to buy a boat. If we don't earn some money now, how will we live when we get to Dongchuan?"

"I still owe ten taels of silver, and I have to kill ten pirates to pay it off. I'm not very old, and I've only learned martial arts for a few days. Even if I survive, how many pirates do you think I can kill? By then, I may not even be able to pay off my debts!" ​​How could he possibly give the money to his family?

Even if he was lucky enough to have some money left, he would not give it to his family!

The Shen family had forgotten that Shen Yuanjing still had a huge debt of ten taels of silver. Just now they were thinking that he could go out and earn money for the family, but now they were left with only resentment.

Madam Shen looked at her three sons and the grandsons behind them, and asked, "What do you think?"

Shen Conglian curled his lips and said, "Mother, let's just forget it. The cabin is pretty good!"

"Yes, mother. Right now, the most important thing for our Shen family is the safety of our offspring. Everything else is secondary. After we dock, we can sell this ship. Won't we have money?"

"We are all seasick and we are all seasick. How can we fight the pirates?"

When Mrs. Shen heard this, her brows relaxed.

It’s not that they don’t want to send people out, it’s that they can’t swim and they get seasick. Seasickness is so uncomfortable that there’s even a smell of vomit in the cabin.

"What you said makes sense. Don't let me fail to help when the time comes and become a burden instead!" Old Madam Shen pondered.

Shen Yuanjing's eyes darkened, and he silently took his brother to the registration place.

There were quite a lot of people queuing, and when it was Shen Yuanjing's turn, someone patted him on the shoulder.

"Yuan Tang, Yuan Xin, Yuan Qing, Yuan Zhao, why are you here?" Shen Yuanjing looked surprised.

Shen Yuantang snorted arrogantly: "Only you, my brother, are allowed to come, but not us? We are also descendants of the Shen family!"

"Yes, we also want to kill pirates to make money!"

"It's a pity that Yuanqing originally wanted to come, but was stopped by my father." Shen Yuanzhao looked disappointed.

Shen Yuanjing was surprised: "Father knows you are here?"

Shen Yuanqing nodded and said with some disappointment: "I know, my father said he wanted to come too, and my grandmother is watching him."

Several people showed helpless expressions and signed one by one.

Just as I was about to leave, four more people came.

"You signed up, why didn't you call us?"

They are Shen Yuanxu and Shen Yuankun from the second house, and Shen Yuanpeng and Shen Yuanhao from the third house.

Shen Yuanjing smiled embarrassedly and said, "Aren't you afraid that the uncles won't let you come?"

Shen Yuanxu rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "Our legs are on our bodies, so you are allowed to come secretly, but we are not allowed to come?"

Shen Yuanjing laughed and punched him: "It was so fun to kill bandits together last time. Let's do it together again this time!"

Shen Yuanxu smiled and raised his chin: "That's more like it!"

Shen Yuanjing smiled and put his shoulder on his shoulder, and the few of them walked towards the martial arts practice area on the second floor while talking!

Time is running out, they need to practice hard!

With an eagle's cry, Xiaoxue came again with information.

After reading the note, Shen Lanxi asked someone to call Liu Yanhui and Wei Dongzhu back.

"The Liu family has sent a navy to pursue us. Tell the boatmen not to rest tonight and to move forward at full speed!"

After reading the information, Liu Yanhui hurried to find the ship owner.

"Tomorrow afternoon, you take Liu Yan back and take a small boat to Tongluo Island!"

Wei Dongzhu: “Yes!”

In addition to the news about the Liu family's deployment, there was also information that Zhou Qiwu was colluding with pirates.

She needs to think carefully about how to use this information.

Jinmen

Zhou Ru'an rested for two days and originally planned to set off early the next morning, but he suddenly received an urgent report from his subordinates and had to leave in a hurry!

"Carry all the boxes aboard, and be careful!"

For safety reasons, all the relief money Zhou Ru'an brought was stored at the dock on the shore, and a heavy force was sent to guard it.

This time they left in a hurry. The soldiers were in a hurry when carrying the box. When they walked onto the deck, they tripped over the deck, and their hands loosened, causing the box to fall to the ground.

With a crash, a handful of stones fell out from the open mouth of the box.

Zhou Ruan watched the whole time, and when he saw the box fall to the ground, he walked forward with a dark face. He wanted to teach the soldier a lesson, but he never expected to see this scene.

How could a stone fall out of the box containing disaster relief silver?

"Open the box!" Zhou Ru'an suddenly had a bad feeling. He thought the guards were too slow, so he opened the box himself.

After seeing clearly what was in the box, Zhou Ru'an turned pale and looked horrified, as if he had seen a ghost!

"Stones, how could there be stones inside?"

Is this just for this box?

What about the other boxes?

Zhou Ru'an's heart beat faster when he thought of the stolen military pay of Wei's army.

"Quick, open all the boxes."

The soldiers stopped and opened the box in a few moves.

Stones. All the boxes are filled with stones!

Zhou Ru'an felt a chill all over his body and his vision went dark.

The soldiers were equally horrified.

"Second Prince, we swear that we have been guarding the warehouse every step of the way, eating, drinking, and sleeping. The coolies who moved goods at the dock during the day and the coolies who unloaded goods at night testified to this. We kept a close eye on the warehouse, and not even a rat entered!" The soldier commander knelt on the ground in panic and explained.

Zhou Ru'an's face turned as pale as a dead person. This was disaster relief silver. The information he just received was that there was a refugee riot in the north. He was setting out now to rush to provide disaster relief.

Now that all the silver had turned to stone, what was he going to use to provide relief? The soldiers' heads?

"Second Prince, I can also testify. Ever since the relief silver was moved to the warehouse, the guards have not left the place, and outsiders are not allowed to get within a hundred meters." The second prince's adviser hurriedly testified for the guards. Testifying for the guards was also testifying for himself.

Zhou Ru'an came back to his senses and roared in frustration: "Then how do you explain that all the silver in the box turned into stone?"

The first thing the strategist thought of when he saw the stone was the Wei family army's food and pay case.

"I dare to speculate that there was a problem with the relief money before it was handed over to us, or there was a problem on the way after it was handed over to us. After we left the capital, we took a boat all the way, and there was no chance to exchange it on the boat!"

This sentence was like a bucket of cold water poured over Zhou Ru'an's head, instantly waking him up.

Could it be that the food and wages allocated by the national treasury to the Wei family army were made of stones from the beginning to the end?

It's impossible, absolutely impossible. If the treasury of the Great Zhou was so huge, how could it be so poor that it would resort to exchanging stones for silver?

But what if, what if it's true?

Zhou Ru'an's heart beat faster because of his own guess.

"Second Prince, I think now is not the time to investigate who replaced the silver. The most urgent task is to quickly raise money for disaster relief."
