Volume 4: The Rise of Wuji Dao Chapter 16: Spending money is such a joy!
The vanity and extravagance of summer helped Min Xuelou.
This is because not only do the members of the Green Wolf Gang wear "uniforms", but the small leaders, big leaders and even hall masters all have obvious differences in clothing.
Min Xuelou didn't realize it at first, but after killing for a while, he understood it, so he specifically targeted the core members of the Green Wolf Gang.
She killed her way from the second entrance all the way to the outside of the stone archway.
Then they chased him along the streets, from the south to the north of the city.
It was just getting dark and there were still some shops open and some pedestrians on the streets of Taishan County.
But when Min Xuelou fought his way from the south to the north of the city, every household closed their doors, and there was no one on the streets except the corpses of the Green Wolf Gang members.
Min Xuelou thought that he could seize some money from the Green Wolf Gang, so he quickly rushed back to the Green Wolf Gang's mansion.
As the saying goes, money can make people move. Although they had seen how powerful Min Xuelou was, some gang members still took advantage of Min Xuelou's escape to plunder the wealth accumulated by Xia Tian.
However, there were still some families in the summer, and the remaining members of the Green Wolf Gang were not of one mind. They scrambled and fought everywhere in the mansion for some gold, silver, treasures and even valuable furniture and porcelain.
Min Xuelou rushed back and killed these greedy people together.
Finally, she caught a middle-aged man who was trying to escape from the back door of the mansion with two young women and a wooden box.
Upon further questioning, it turned out to be Xia Ji's butler, who was also the butler of the Green Wolf Gang.
So, Min Xuelou directly asked this man to take her to find the money she had accumulated in the summer.
The housekeeper brought Min Xuelou to a stone house in the backyard and said, "Lady, all the money our boss has plundered over the years is in here, but I don't have the key."
"Then where did the wooden box you are holding come from?" Min Xuelou asked, and then put his sword on the butler's neck, "Where is Xia Tianzhong's money hidden? You'd better tell the truth, or I will kill you immediately."
The housekeeper would not doubt what Min Xuelou said.
Because the backbone members of the Green Wolf Gang were almost killed by Min Xuelou, and the front yard was a river of blood, so in his eyes, Min Xuelou was a female devil who would kill people at will.
So he trembled and said, "This is a little savings that I have hidden away. As for the gang leader's money, besides this vault, he may have more hidden in his bedroom. I am willing to look for it for you, the heroine."
So Min Xuelou followed the housekeeper to the bedroom to look for it.
As a result, the butler searched everywhere but only found another small wooden box.
When he opened it, he found that there were only 30,000 taels of silver notes and 100 taels of gold inside. There were no martial arts secrets, account books or anything else.
Then, Min Xuelou opened the housekeeper's wooden box and found that in addition to several hundred taels of silver and ten thousand taels of silver notes, there was also an account book, which was the record of the transactions with Jinyun Trading Company.
After coming out, Min Xuelou circulated his true energy and cut off the brass lock of the silver vault with one sword.
She asked the housekeeper to open the door, only to see more than a dozen large wooden boxes inside.
However, when all the wooden boxes were opened, only three of them were filled with silver, about three thousand taels, and the rest were filled with copper coins.
Min Xuelou knew that the key person was a core figure of the Green Wolf Gang, who must have done a lot of bad things for Xia Jizhong and had a deep connection with the Jinyun Commercial Bank. He could not keep him, so he killed him with a sword.
Then she stood in the silver vault, looking at the three boxes of silver and more than a dozen boxes of copper coins, and asked worriedly: "Master, what should we do with all this money?"
Su Yan transmitted his voice: "I'm afraid the total amount of silver and copper coins is less than 5,000 taels, so distribute it to the people of this county and the refugees in and outside the city. We only need to take the silver notes and gold, which will be enough."
Min Xuelou said in embarrassment: "But I am the only disciple, and there is so much money here, how can I take it all? If I leave, I am afraid that someone bold enough will come and steal it."
In fact, even if someone really comes to steal, they may not be able to steal much.
But Su Yan did not discuss this with Min Xuelou. Instead, he said, "Aren't the two women that the housekeeper brought still outside? Ask them if there is a carriage in the mansion. Get the carriage, put the money on the carriage, and scatter it along the street."
Next, Min Xuelou did as Su Yan said, and actually found a carriage for passengers and two large vans for transporting goods in the mansion.
In addition, a driver was found hiding in the carriage, shivering...
Taishan County Government Office.
The county magistrate was also hiding in the backyard of his house, trembling with fear.
He called the county police chief and a group of detectives to guard the door and not allow them to leave.
"Sir, how about I take some people out to take a look?" the captain asked through the door.
"What are you looking at?" The county magistrate spoke to the head of the police force with great momentum, "Didn't you say that the female devil killed everyone she saw, even Xia Jizhong was killed? Are you looking for death?"
The captain smiled bitterly, "Sir, how could I possibly seek death? Listen carefully, the screams outside seem to have stopped, and many people are cheering and shouting instead."
"Cheers and shouts?"
The county magistrate was stunned and thought: Did the people of Taishan hate Xia Jizhong so much? Why did they cheer for joy after knowing that Xia Jizhong was killed?
He listened carefully and saw that there were indeed many people cheering, but he couldn't hear what they were shouting.
At this time, the head of the police said, "Sir, they seem to be shouting for money to be scattered."
"Spreading money?"
When he heard the word "money", the county magistrate's eyes immediately lit up and he became bolder.
He opened the door and said to the captain, "Hurry up and protect this county and go to the street to have a look!"
The county magistrate, accompanied by the chief constable, a group of constables and yamen runners, walked out of the gate of the county yamen cautiously, and happened to see three horse-drawn carriages approaching from the south of the city.
A graceful woman in black, wearing a black veil and a conical hat, jumped back and forth on the two carriages at the back, grabbing handfuls of copper coins from the wooden boxes on the carriages and throwing them out.
If it were an ordinary woman, she would probably just scatter the copper coins behind the car, not too far away.
But this woman was obviously very skilled in martial arts. Every handful of copper coins she threw were thrown dozens of feet away, or even hundreds of steps away, landing in the alleys and houses on both sides of the street.
Therefore, although there were some common people following the carriage, they were not many.
However, the people along the street became agitated.
The doors that were originally tightly closed opened one after another, and people rushed out to pick up the money. Many people, perhaps stimulated, cheered and shouted while picking up the money.
“Spread the money!”
"Erbao, come out and pick up the money!"
"Oh my god, that's a lot of small change!"
"Silver! I found some silver!"
“…”
The carriage was not moving fast. When it slowly passed in front of the county government office, the county magistrate almost couldn't hold back.
Because the woman in black didn't even throw a penny towards the county government.
Seeing this, the county magistrate almost wanted to ask the captain of the police to take his men to capture the female devil.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he was looked at by the female devil, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and his courage was completely gone.
When the carriage had gone a little further, the county magistrate could not help but beat his chest and stamp his feet, saying: "This devil woman is really sinful. How can she just scatter money in the streets like this? What if the people fight over the money and get hurt? The money should be handed over to me, the father and mother official, to distribute!"
After hearing the above words, the constables and yamen runners were quite surprised. They didn't expect that the county magistrate cared so much about the people.
But after hearing the last sentence, they realized that what the county magistrate actually cared about was money.
The head of the police even laughed secretly : "Is it left to you to distribute? I'm afraid that in the end, all of it will be distributed to you, and the others won't even get a sip of the leftover soup. Now, at least our family members may also pick up some money."
…
Min Xuelou asked the coachman to drive the first carriage and the other two large carriages from the south of the city to the north of the city. Along the way, he threw copper coins on the other two carriages as much as he could.
Only when passing through some poor alleys would he throw some silver.
When they reached the city wall, where the refugees gathered, they scattered a mixture of silver and copper coins.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to spend all the silver, but there are too many copper coins and too little silver.
After scattering the money along the city wall, he returned to the south of the city. Looking at the dozen or so empty boxes, Min Xuelou felt his heart pounding, his cheeks flushed, and he felt unprecedented joy in his heart.
"Master, I didn't expect that giving away money would be so joyful. I even feel like I'm about to realize the mystical gate of heaven and man!"
