The Peerless Demon of Martial Arts

Chapter 870

"Have you finished reading?" Cat's Claw sat down: "Is it time to pay?"

The auctioneer said: "Not busy. We don't ask how you got these things, but I have to remind you that more than half of them are fakes."

"What did you say?!" Puppet was in a hurry.

Cat's Claw calmed him down: "My friend, I can't tell you the origin of things. This is a rule. But things will never be fake. You say that to blackmail our baby."

The appraiser was very helpless, put the things on the table, and laid them flat: "My lords, you can inquire about our business, it's fair. There are really many fakes here, you may not know it yourself, but we I'm not lying. Take a look at this jade pendant. Although there are traces of blood in it, it is an imitation. The craftsman's skills are good, and there are also flaws. Look at the gap in the corner, this is a man-made jade..."

"I don't listen to this." Maozhuo said: "One night's work, who knows what you have done. Just give me 1000 million taels, and the remaining 300 million taels, I know you can't get it, I won't force it. Just a few people, just follow me and bring the money back."

These words were frightening, as if their conspiracy was clearly heard by the cat master.

That's right, Maopao didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and went to eavesdrop.He didn't want to show up, and he didn't have any interest in it. It would be easier to just ask for money.

"How is it? Will you give me money?"

The other party smiled and said, "Master, are you kidding, what are you talking about? Three million taels? We are not short of money, but your item is indeed flawed. If you disagree, you can leave with the goods, and we will never make things difficult."

Then you have to be embarrassed.

Puppet Sha put the sword on the table: "Let's be honest, we are Li Tianxing's brothers, and we came out this time for the silver. If you are sensible, prepare the silver and send it back with us. If you don't agree, I will kill you!" The government is gone, killing a few people is not a big deal."

In the end, of course force prevailed, and with Li Tianxing's name, these people did not dare to play tricks.

1000 million taels was not enough, because part of it had to be spent by the army, so Maoclaw and Puppet had to go out again.This time it was more difficult. Most of the rich people in Tai'an Mansion knew about it.Several other places have long been squeezed dry by bandits and rebels.

"Where are we going now?" Puppet Sha was very depressed.

"Brother, don't worry, there is no bridge that cannot be crossed, there will always be a way."

"How? What way? Tell me."

Cat's Claw said: "When the imperial court was still in existence, there were many wealthy businessmen in the capital. After the imperial court disappeared, many people robbed wealthy merchants everywhere, but there was still a lot of money in the area of ​​the capital. The richest people were Fallen dignitaries, they hid all their money."

"Do you have a list?"

Maozhuo took out a note: "Master gave it to me when I left home. It's full of corrupt officials. If you find people who haven't been robbed by bandits, that's where we go to find money."

…………

A few hundred miles away, the streets of the capital are neither deserted nor lively. Some people set up street stalls to do business, and restaurants and inns are still open.If it is said that the whole country has been divided into large and small pieces of power, then the capital is a piece of cake, divided into miscellaneous territories by wealthy businessmen.Every street is being guarded, the soldiers are gone, and some are just thugs.

They quickly found out that the owner of a restaurant used to be in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the imperial court. On the surface, he was just an ordinary businessman, but would the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs have no money?Who can believe it.

This boss is very good at hiding himself, and his usual clothes are also very ordinary, like a small shopkeeper.

"Are you Boss He?" Maozhuo saw him at the door of the restaurant.

Boss He looked at the visitor: "Yes, it's me, who are you?"

"You don't care who I am, I'm here to ask you for money."

Boss He smirked and said, "Are you robbing? That's worth it. Take a look at my whole body and see where there are valuable things. If you want, you can sell my clothes."

Maozhuo blocked his way with one hand: "Master He, the former head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You have been in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for four months, and the national treasury has lost tens of millions of taels of silver. Am I right?"

"You... who are you?!" A little nervous, Boss He quickly smiled: "It's all rumors, and the accounts issued by the court are all recorded. I have only been the manager for four months, and now Isn't it the same as opening a restaurant? Sigh... life is hard."

Puppet Sha has no such patience: "Give us 1000 million taels, or I will make you spit it all out. You can choose the two ways."

"Aren't you Ming Qiang? Is there any king's law?!"

"The king's law was eaten by dogs, now the fist has the final say." Puppet punched him.

The guy fell into a coma on the spot.

They loaded the man into a carriage and took them to an empty house in the west of the city.At night, Boss He woke up.

"Finally woke up."

Boss He was very scared: "What on earth are you planning to do? I really don't have that much money. I opened a restaurant, and I have only caught less than 5000 taels of silver so far. It's a small profit. Where can I get so much money? You really found the wrong person. I beg you, let me go. "

Cat's Claw lowered his head and looked at the situation in his eyes: "Why bother? We don't want to hurt your life, we only want money."

"Bandits, you are out-and-out bandits!"

"Well said, we have already written to your family, saying that if you don't get the money, your life will be gone."

Boss He shook his head: "It's useless at all, because my family has no money. Even if they want to save me, they can't afford the 1000 million taels you said. Why don't you let me out now, and I'll raise money for you right away. 1 Wanliang, even if I lose everything, I will give it to you, will it work?"

"I know where your silver is hidden. Our brother is going to your house soon. Please come here. I just want to ask you if you want to join us?"

Puppet was a little confused: "Brother Cat, are you talking about..."

"Don't talk." Cat's Claw gave him a look and untied Boss He's rope: "You can go home now."

The meaning is very simple. Cat's Claw and Puppet follow him secretly, and they can find out where the silver is.

night road.

Boss He turned his head every three steps, for fear of being followed.Returning home in a daze, he quickly closed the door: "Old butler!"

The butler came: "Master, what's the matter with you?"

"Has anyone been here?"

"No."

"Don't wait, hurry up!" Boss He rushed straight to the backyard: "Transfer all the money immediately, and move quickly. I am being watched by someone, and all the servants are asked to move the money, hurry up!! "

"Oh... yes yes yes."

Puppet Sha and Cat Claw flew up to the roof and saw that they were behind the rockery in the back garden. The crowd came in and out one after another, with an average of two people carrying a box, and there was someone calling out to them to move faster.

Puppet is happy: "I really have you, no wonder the elder brother will find you as an apprentice."
