Without money, what is the point of being a traitor?

Chapter 160 lingering fears
Pei Yuan opened the creditor map and checked Liu Qi's trajectory again.

After watching for a while, Pei Yuan himself became confused.

Liu Qi's movements are now very erratic, making it impossible to guess his intentions.

Pei Yuan really wanted to find the Bazhou rebels to ask them at this moment.

——Do you have any difficulties? Tell us and we can solve them together.

——What’s the point of keeping it in your heart?

Pei Yuan sighed helplessly and wanted to close the "debt settlement system", but unexpectedly found that his credit value had reached 27 points.

I looked through the records.

It turned out that Wang Chang, Sikong Sui and Tantai Fangtu each contributed two points.

According to Pei Yuan's previous experience, each person seemed to contribute two points at most.

This thing...

Well, it's optional.

Pei Yuan weighed the pros and cons and said, "Stay at the post station and rest for now."

Pei Yuan looked at his men and said, "Wash the blood off your bodies."

Pei Yuan has been very busy these past two days and doesn't want to get into any new trouble for the time being.

However, we should despise the enemy strategically but take him seriously tactically.

Pei Yuan is not afraid of encountering an old and sinister type of enemy, but he is afraid of encountering someone who rushes in recklessly.

Necessary vigilance is still necessary.

He looked around and found that Ji Xin, who was guarding the house, and his musketeers were in good spirits.

So Pei Yuan called Ji Xin and ordered him, "Take two people to Jiangdu City to inquire about the situation and see how it is developing and whether there are any changes."

Ji Xin quickly responded, "I obey your command."

Pei Yuan also instructed, "Sun Keding is well-informed, you can find out something from him."

After Ji Xin selected two people to go into the city to gather information, Pei Yuan instructed Song Chunniang, "You should take care of the silver carriage first, and you should take care of the people left by Ji Xin for the time being. As for the others, we will talk about it later."

Song Chunniang was not vague and agreed directly.

Then he asked, "What about your little beauty? How should we arrange it properly?"

Pei Yuan was stunned for a moment before he remembered that Qin Lingbo was still in Song Chunniang's hands.

But at this moment, he really didn't have the heart to do anything else.

Pei Yuan waved his hand, "Don't ask me."

Song Chunniang chuckled and said, "How about sending me off?"

Pei Yuan couldn't let this guy get away with it, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Let's wait until Captain Han arrives."

After saying that, he went to his own courtyard in the post station.

When he killed Yang Lin, the commander of the Left Guard of the Huben Army, a lot of dirt got on his body.

It didn’t matter at the time, but now that I have some free time I feel a little overwhelmed.

Pei Yuan asked someone to bring a wooden barrel of hot water, and then he took off all his clothes and took a good bath.

His physical fatigue was nothing, it was mainly because his mind had been tense. Now that he had relaxed and soaked in the hot water, he actually fell asleep in a daze.

Half asleep and half awake, Pei Yuan seemed to get up to check something.

Then I heard some noise in the yard next door.

Pei Yuan quickly followed the sound.

In another side yard, rows of silver boxes were opened, and the silver inside seemed to have grown legs and was happily lining up to run out.

？ ！！

Pei Yuan suddenly woke up.

Then, he suddenly realized that he was still soaking in the bucket.

But the water was already cold.

Pei Yuan thought about the dream he had just had, got up hurriedly and wiped it, then put on a clean cotton armor, took the Bazhou sword in his hand, opened the door and walked out.

Only then did Pei Yuan notice that it was already night outside. There was no moon tonight, and there were a few small snowflakes falling sporadically.

The person guarding the door is Cheng Leixiang.

He was also dozing off, and when he heard the noise he quickly stood up, "My lord, what's wrong?"

Pei Yuan said directly, "I'm a little worried about the silver. Come with me and take a look."

"Okay." Cheng Leixiang waved his hand to call out two secret sentries, then blew the fire stick and lit an oil-soaked torch next to him.

Cheng Leixiang handed the torch to a Jinyiwei, while he himself held the Embroidered Spring Sword in his hand and stood guard beside Pei Yuan.

The group of four knocked on the door of the side yard, exchanged the secret code, and waited for the vigilant Jinyiwei inside to come out and carefully confirm it before they opened the door completely and let Pei Yuan, Cheng Leixiang and others enter the side yard.

The defense here is even tighter than that in Pei Yuan's yard.

There are eight people on the visible sentry post alone.

Pei Yuan was still worried, and said to a lieutenant of the Jinyiwei, "Open the door of the wing where the money is kept. I want to take a look myself."

The Jinyi captain hurriedly saluted, then took out the key and opened the room where the tax silver was kept.

Pei Yuan felt a little relieved when he saw the rows of boxes were sealed tightly.

At this time Song Chunniang also rushed over.

She asked Pei Yuan nervously, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Song Chunniang couldn't help but be nervous.

Today, Pei Yuan finally arranged something for her to do, giving her the opportunity to prove her abilities.

If she messes up the tax and banking issues, it will be a big trouble.

Pei Yuan saw that the silver box was firmly nailed and shook his head, "It's okay."

Seeing that all this fuss was purely due to his own overthinking, Pei Yuan could only explain awkwardly, "It might be because of the matter of the Tiger Guard Left Guard that I have been under a lot of pressure these past two days. No matter what I do today, I feel upset."

This was of course an excuse. What really worried Pei Yuan was the matter of the rebels in Bazhou.

Pei Yuan said here.

Suddenly, I miss my passive attitude of "not worrying about debts".

When I was in this passive state, I was as steady and timid as an old dog, and it was not easy for me to be kidnapped by emotions.

Those messy thoughts cannot affect my judgment at all.

Well, should you consider brushing off a few debts and changing to a passive one?
Pei Yuan thought about it and was quite interested.

Seeing that it was not her responsibility, Song Chunniang immediately said to Pei Yuan in a bad mood, "If you are under a lot of pressure, you can go find Qin Lingbo instead of trying to make fun of us."

"Such an important mission, do you think we won't be under too much pressure?"

"Old, I heard that you came to check the money. I was almost scared to death. I thought something was wrong."

Pei Yuan's dream just now was too real, and he was still frightened.

He really didn't have any thoughts about Qin Lingbo at the moment, so he scolded him dissatisfiedly, "What are you thinking about? This is a big deal, don't play around."

Song Chunniang was quite dissatisfied with the reprimand, and said stubbornly with a double meaning, "It won't take much time."

Nima!

Pei Yuan was a little angry.

At this moment, he quickly changed his mind. If he really met such a stubborn woman, there would be nothing wrong with the state of "being poor but stronger".

He was too lazy to talk to Song Chunniang anymore, so he turned around and went back to his room.

Before leaving.

Suddenly, he kicked a silver box as if possessed by a ghost.

The silver box was kicked by Pei Yuan, making a sharp moving sound and moving a few inches.

Pei Yuan's expression changed immediately.

Even people like Song Chunniang and Cheng Leixiang widened their eyes in horror.

The silver boxes on the silver transport vehicle were all built according to the specifications of coffins. They could withstand being cut by knives or swords. Even without silver in them, they were still extremely heavy.

After putting the silver on it, even if he pushed it hard, it still felt strenuous. How could it be possible that Pei Yuan could kick it several inches away with just one kick?
