Chapter 15, Search for property

After coming out of Baicao Hall, Jiang Yan carried the purchased herbs directly back to the courtyard and began to prepare medicine for Grandma Lu to treat her illness.

I had inquired in Baicao Hall before and found out that the shopkeeper of Baicao Hall was not named Bai, so I felt a little relieved. However, I was also a little disappointed, and I couldn't express my disappointment in any specific way.

It was already late at night, and Jiang Yan tiptoed to Grandma Lu's house. Seeing that Grandma Lu had taken medicine and fell asleep, he packed up his things and got up quietly, climbed over the wall of the courtyard and walked outside.

At this time, there were only a few dim street lights on Sijiucheng Road, and there were many people on the street, but Jiang Yan still walked cautiously.

Yandian Alley was the destination of Jiang Yan's trip. As for shopkeeper Liu's whereabouts, Jiang Yan specifically visited Tian Zao in the afternoon and asked his men to help inquire. He also learned about Tian Zao's harvest on the first day of construction.

After getting to know Jiang Yan, she realized that she had really underestimated Tian Zao. In just one day, she contacted the leaders of street children in more than a dozen nearby alleys such as Maoer Hutong, Yandian Hutong, Jinyu Hutong, and Chaodou Hutong.

, and initially established an offensive and defensive alliance. It can be said that Tian Zao's tentacles at this time have penetrated deep into the entire western part of Sijiu City.

After a day of trial operation, Tian Zao told Jiang Yan that they earned almost more than five million French currency and some food and other things in one day. This still saved some people who were lonely and inconvenient. These things were enough for these children for a day.

Used for satiety.

Tian Zao also told himself that they, a group of children, were extremely grateful to Jiang Yan, a person who paid no attention to them. No matter which alley Jiang Yan took to find these wandering children, as long as he reported his name, they would do their best to help him.

Jiang Yan thought of the house named Liu in Yandai Hutong, so he climbed over the wall and climbed to the roof, where he climbed on the roof to listen to what was going on inside.

There were quite a few people on the roof, and they were all reporting today's harvest to Liu. Jiang Yan had been wondering before, seeing how the French currency was worthless, how could anyone be stupid enough to exchange silver dollars for French currency.

Well, after hearing this, I realized that the official quotation was six million to be exchanged for one silver dollar, but they lacked at least six and a half million to exchange for one silver dollar. There was actually a gap of half a million between this round trip.

Of course, this is not the big head. The big head is the legal currency they get and go to the countryside to exchange for various materials. At this time, communication is not developed. They just use this time difference to exchange for a large amount of materials and then sell them in the city. This time, they go back and forth.

The price difference is overwhelming.

Hearing these things, Jiang Yan couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. He was really a profiteer, and he felt even less guilty about what he was doing today.

The shopkeeper just sent news that Liu San and Wang Wu were unconscious and had been sent to the hospital.

Sent to the hospital, what's going on? Didn't I ask them to monitor a teenage child? Maybe they can't even beat a child. What a waste.

But shopkeeper, I looked at their wounds and it looked like they were gunshot wounds. It should be a practitioner. Maybe there is someone behind this kid.

Are you sure? Shopkeeper Liu's words became urgent.

It is certain that the two of them will not be defeated by a teenage boy, and this person is still a practitioner.

But don’t worry, shopkeeper. There are so many of us, so we will be afraid of him. Besides, nowadays, anyone who has a gun will be tough with his words, even if he is good at martial arts, he can be knocked down with one shot.

You're right. Don't ship anything for the next few days. Be alert and bring your pistols.

Jiang Yan was shocked when he heard they said they had guns. Fortunately, he didn't go in rashly, otherwise he might have suffered a big loss.

Jiang Yan lay on the roof for more than an hour, seeing people leaving the house one after another. When the room became quiet, Jiang Yan ran down the wall.

Jiang Yan tiptoed to the window and heard the snoring inside. Jiang Yan took out a pill from his arms and put it in his mouth. Then he took out a hollow tube and blew the smoke in through the gap in the window.

This mist is a recipe given to me by my master. Although my master treats diseases and saves people, he also has a lot of low-level things. These are all passed on to me. I also gave them to Lu in the Baicao Hall in the afternoon.

When grandma bought medicine, she bought a lot of extra medicinal materials. The effect of these medicines is extremely strong, and just one medicine can make people unconscious after being smoked.

Then Jiang Yan followed the same method and blew smoke into every room. Fortunately, there was more smoke in the afternoon, otherwise it would not be enough.

Returning to his own space, he took out a gas mask and put it on, then put on disposable gloves and even put bags on his shoes. Then he used a dagger to pry off the door bolt and entered directly into the room of shopkeeper Liu.

.

On the fire bed, the shopkeeper named Liu was sleeping with a woman who was about twenty years old. Jiang Yan pushed and saw that there was no movement between the two people, so he took out a strong flashlight and rummaged around the room.

stand up.

Jiang Yan used a dagger to break the copper lock on the bedside table. After opening the cabinet, Jiang Yan's eyes widened. There were a lot of French currency densely packed inside. Each French currency had a denomination of one hundred thousand yuan. Next to the legal currency, there was an envelope.

There were one hundred silver coins wrapped in paper, and there were a hundred silver coins in them. So Jiang Yan put all the money in his own space.

There were two drawers in the bedside table. Jiang Yan opened the drawer on the right. It was filled with all kinds of watches and pocket watches. The watches were almost all national brands. There were many kinds of pocket watches, and almost all of them were inlaid with various kinds of inlays.

The gems or diamonds look much more expensive than ordinary items.

There are three pistols in another drawer, one is a Browning M1900 pistol known as a one-shot gun, and the second one is a Browning M1910 known as a three-flower gun.

Pistol. The other one is the German P08 pistol, known as the noble among guns, but it is a common version for foreign trade.

Among them, Jiang Yan's favorite was the German P08 pistol. When Jiang Yan saw this gun, he couldn't help but take it out and play with it for a while. Not only did the gun come with the matching magazine and bullets, but there was also a gun maintenance set.

tools and holsters, but these three guns look like they have hardly been shot new.

Whether in his past life or this life, guns have always been every man's favorite. He had never had the opportunity to touch them before, but now that Jiang Yan saw these three guns, he naturally felt a little elated.

After putting away the things in the cabinet, Jiang Yan rummaged through the room and put away almost all the things that could be used, but Jiang Yan felt that something was missing.

After thinking quietly for a moment, Jiang Yan patted his head. He had just been busy collecting things, and had forgotten that there were so many things. However, Boss Liu's identity was seriously inconsistent with his identity. He had collected so many things, but why was none of the gold missing?

Gold is a hard currency these days, and anyone with a little bit of ability in these forty-nine cities will collect some. I haven't seen anyone today, so it shows that there must be a hidden compartment in this room.

So Jiang Yan took the dagger and started knocking in the room. However, Jiang Yan actually found a hidden compartment behind a landscape painting hanging on the wall. Although the hidden compartment was not big, the things inside were not big.

There were more than a dozen large goldfish and hundreds of small goldfish. I also found a box full of various gold and silver jewelry.

After rummaging through Boss Liu's house, Jiang Yan went to several other houses. Although the harvest in other houses was not as much as Boss Liu's, it was still quite a lot. He got a dozen small yellow croakers, and Dayang also got some.

More than a thousand yuan.

Jiang Yan also obtained a lot of legal currency of other denominations as well as sacks of silver and copper coins in a room that looked like a counting room.

These are estimated to be worth no less than one hundred thousand silver dollars.

This shows how wealthy Boss Liu is.
