Chapter One Thousand and Ninety-One

That night, the dinner carefully prepared by the kitchen of Wulana Laruixi could not wait for Honghui to enjoy, but she waited for the thief in the open Yucai Fang.

According to Erfu, if the opening of the rouge shop opposite is a healthy competition with the dazzling color fang, she welcomes it, but since the opposite side of the color shop does not follow the rules first, she does not need to abide by the laws of etiquette, and a fire is enough to destroy the hard work of Ulana Laruixi.

Of course, setting fire or something is too yin and damaging, and the risk is too great, after all, the streets are all wooden buildings, when the fire borrows the wind, once it can't be controlled, the shops on this street will be unlucky, and maybe there will be a lot of life, she is not so ruthless, but she will not let Yu Caifang continue to be so cottage, she is not good at doing bad things, but she has a good assistant Bai Jiao children's shoes that eat both black and white, she casually ordered, Bai Jiao will naturally arrange this matter well, such as the two thieves who came to Yu Caifang at this time.

I saw that the two of them were as light as swallows, and I didn't see any big movements between the two, and the thick warehouse door made of pig iron in the warehouse of Yucaifang had already opened a thin crack......

Under the subtle candlelight, silver and yellow gold bars and silver ingots fill the iron shelves, and there are several finely carved brocade boxes next to them, which contain brilliant and dazzling pearls and gemstones, and there are pieces of uncut rough stones stacked in the corner of the wall to form a rockery

......

There were only two thieves, and they were weak and weak, and they gave up the rough stones that seemed to be heavy and crushed people, and they didn't have the idea of moving those gold bars and silver ingots, and according to Bai Jiao's instructions, they went directly to those exquisite brocade boxes, because the value of these brocade boxes alone had exceeded the value of all the other things in the treasury combined.

One box is a polished angular red sapphire, which is an imported thing from abroad and is not of high value.

A box of Nanzhu the size of a dragon's eye, this is an expensive item, and each of them is priceless.

A box of pink, blue, and purple tourmaline blocks, transparent and flawless, brilliant and colorful, although not as valuable as pearls, but also valuable, in the bag.

Look at the side, there are two relatively small brocade boxes, containing such clotted butter and jade, the two thieves have recognized, this is the jade carving bonsai of the two treasures of the town store in the hall of the Yancai Fang, a slightly smaller one is the ornament of the carved five blessings of longevity, and the other is a slightly larger one is the carved butterfly flower incense burner, don't look at these two things, the small one is only the size of the palm, and the big one is only a foot square, but the value is the most valuable in this warehouse, even if the two small thieves do this without a business when they put these two things into the baggage bag, they can't help but feel a little more cautious。

In addition to these, the brocade box containing agate, clams, jade, glass and other precious stones, they did not let go, after putting it into a thick cloth pocket deep for one person, and then stuffed two golden gold bars into the inner pocket of the placket, turned around and scavenged all the finished jewelry, and then with a blackened fire fold left a few crooked characters on the white wall - the monk came here to visit.

After doing these things, the two put the bag full of treasures at the door of the warehouse, turned back to the warehouse, wiped the footprints left by themselves, and spilled the spirits they brought all over every corner of the warehouse, especially in front of the iron shelf where the two of them stayed the most, the two looked at each other and smiled, and deftly drilled out of the warehouse door, carrying a heavy big bag, and swaggered away from the main entrance of the storehouse.

At the corner of the street, there is a small sedan chair that has been parked there for a long time.

This is also one of the tools of the two of them, specially asked the old carpenter to carefully build, looking at the same as the ordinary sedan chair, but the weight is much lighter, they put the big bag on their back into the sedan chair, and lifted the sedan chair neatly and walked to the outer city.

Don't think it's easy to be a thief, but if you can't plan it, Thoughtful, in the capital of the first good area of the crime, not waiting for them to get out of danger has been caught by the street of those patrolling the city soldiers, not to say, only to say that the two of them carried the sedan chair work is enough to practice for half a year, in addition, they are dressed and those sedan chair men are the same, only the color is slightly darker, the old sedan chair men over the years will recognize them as peers, the two of them carried a small sedan chair full of treasures from the most lively eight alleys in the outer city for a circle, and deliberately turned a few more times on the road, then dragged the tired body back to their temporary rented courtyard。

Back in the courtyard, the two of them carried their heavy big bags back to the Great North House and sat down, and they didn't say much, they didn't even light the candlestick on the table, but they carefully counted the things in their pockets by the moonlight outside the window, until the two of them counted the number of these things, and all of them were stuffed into the kang hole in the West House, where no one lived, and one of them went back to the east room to light the candlestick, and the other went outside to fetch clean water and began to wash off the disguise on his face.

Removing the disguise on their faces, the age of the two is no more than twenty years old.

The person who went outside to fetch water before sat cross-legged on the kang tip, leaning on the paint-colored mottled kang cabinet relaxedly, and said with a bit of longing: "Big brother, after we finish this ticket, we should also collect the mountain and live a good life!"

"Wait, second, you have also inquired, the owner of the Cai Fang is a big man we can't afford to provoke, although we are not emptying the Cai Fang, but it is enough to make the big man hurt his bones, the big man can be so good at giving up, he must work hard to find, for the sake of insurance, let's still be a sedan chair man for a few days, and after this time, we can take these treasures to the employer to pay off!" The eldest brother, who was lying on the kang head and pillowing the futon and lying in his clothes, heard this, sat up straight, and said with a bitter face.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.

The biggest advantage of the two brothers being able to get to where they are today without being caught is that they are cautious.

The second child also knew that his eldest brother's worries were not unreasonable, nodded slightly, and said softly: "Guarding Baoshan and doing hard labor, this taste is really uncomfortable, but fortunately, if you stay up for another ten days and half a month, it will be completely boiled out!"

"Second brother, the eldest brother knows that you are working hard, and I also know that you are worried about the old lady at home, and you are in a hurry to take the silver back to treat the old lady, but you must always remember how our grandfather was caught by the government, and how he was cut off in the head with a knife, if it wasn't for our mother waiting for money to treat the disease, I would be crazy, and I wouldn't do this with you. The eldest was afraid that the second child would not be willing to live a hard life in Baoshan, so he hurriedly rubbed to the second child, pulled the second child who was leaning on the kang cabinet to close his eyes and recuperate, and said solemnly.

The two of them are two brothers from a small ravine in the northwest border, surnamed Qu, the eldest is called Qu Da, the second is called Qu Er, the ancestral home is Xichuan, it is because their grandfather is a Jiangyang thief captured by the government, their family can not stay in their hometown, they will follow their father and mother to leave their hometown at a young age and come to the most bitter border town, they lived a good life when they were children, ate bird's nest bear's paws that ordinary people have never even seen, and passed through the silk and satin that ordinary people don't even think about, but they have suffered and eaten bran vegetables, ragged clothes, compared to the street begging for a living called Hanako is a little more miserable, fortunately, their father is willing to endure hardships, can also endure hardships, plus there is still a gold ingot left by their short-lived grandfather in his hand, this finally survived the most difficult period, led them to buy a house and land in a small town in the northwest border, and finally lived a plain but comfortable life.

But the good times didn't last long, the father passed away, the old lady was sick, a pair of medicine cost more than a dozen taels of silver, they sold the family's land was not enough, the two boys couldn't bear to wait for the old lady to stay up like this, and sold the family's big house, exchanged for some silver taels, and rented a small room, leaving enough silver taels in the hospital, and asked the aunt next door to help take care of the old lady, so they came to Beijing from the northwest border with the burden.

When their grandfather was still alive, they often told them how chic the snitch was to spend a lot of money, they were all bankers with no long skills, and only those who learned from their grandfather back then were able to pick the locks, they thought that even if they stole things, they couldn't do crimes in front of their own homes, and they had to find the kind of fat sheep that was so rich that they had to find the kind of fat sheep that were so rich that they would be waiting for them, and what was waiting for them was the same fate as their grandfather, and the two discussed, so they came to the capital that they thought was the richest place in their hearts.

Along the way, they spent all the money, then found some small businessmen to practice, but really found their own strengths, and when they came to Beijing, they had accumulated more than 100 taels of silver, they used this more than 100 taels of silver to make this book, and it was to lease the yard, and to buy a soft sedan chair, tossing for more than half a year, and then began to act, because one is that they need a living that can see the light, the second is that they need to be familiar with the streets and alleys of Beijing by carrying the sedan chair, and the third is that they can use the work of carrying the sedan chair to find opportunities to approach the fat sheep they selected。

It's just that they were unlucky, and they chose a dazzling shop that seemed easy to do for the first time.

In the dazzling color workshop, looking at the crystal clear glass floor door is not safe, as if a brick can let people enter and exit freely, but the vault inside is extremely anti-theft mechanism lock and steel plate masonry structure, the two of them looked at the door made of rectangular carvings and pieces of carvings are going crazy, because they didn't find that the lock can be pried at all, and they should be unlucky, they tentatively knocked on the door with a hammer to say that the door is not a door, that the wall is not a wall, and they were found by Bai Jiao, who lived upstairs.

The cage that rose from the ground directly locked the two of them.

The only thing that makes the two of them feel fortunate is that Bai Jiao is not the kind of person who is not close to people, knowing that the two of them are thieves who pick the locks at the door, but they don't have to send them to the government for punishment, after listening to them talk about their miserable life experience, they tossed them hard, and then they were released, they still don't know why Bai Jiao let them go, just because they said: only steal the official's house, not the poor people.

I have to say that to a certain extent, Erf's influence on Bai Jiao is great.

A few of these thieves are specifically staring at the pockets of those poor people, not picking up big thieves, but because Erfu once told Bai Jiao the story of my coming, Bai Jiao actually believed the two brothers, and the brothers were lucky, anyway, they didn't end up like their grandfather, but they were caught once, and they were a lot more cautious, if it weren't for Bai Jiao, the person who came to the door to ask them for help this time was Bai Jiao, they would definitely not attack Yu Caifang, God knows what kind of anti-theft measures have been used in the shops that have been making money these days！

Of course, Bai Jiao also gave them a huge sum of money that they had no way to refuse.

There are two thousand taels of silver tickets, and silver is taken from the ticket, even in the remote places in the northwest, there are silver numbers to take silver, and this is a huge amount of money that can see the light, because Bai Jiao left them a receipt, it is clearly written that it is the payment for the purchase of bloodstone, bloodstone is a kind of ore that can be seen on the mountain if you are lucky, and the price of the best bloodstone is about the same as that of mutton fat jade, the two of them can take this silver ticket home to treat the old lady openly, and they don't need to worry about how to deal with their mother's various interrogations, because of this, the two of them will take over this business。

In addition, Bai Jiao also promised them that if they felt unsafe, they could not do it.

The two brothers felt that they were collecting money from people and eliminating disasters, and they found that the defense work of the Rainbow Workshop was not as strict as that of the Dazzling Fortune Workshop, so they would act so decisively.

"Go to bed early, I'm going to go outside the front door tomorrow to make money and eat!" The second child recalled the tragic childhood experience of those years, and no longer lived a good life for going home, nodded solemnly, pulled the bedding stacked on the kang cabinet indiscriminately, answered the sentence, took off the robe and got into the quilt, and at the same time did not forget to put the cotton robe thrown next to it on the quilt, this north wind together, the sky in the capital is getting colder and colder, in order to make their own life the same as the ordinary sedan chair man who lifts his feet, they can not burn the charcoal pot in the room all day long to keep warm, at night, the house is as cold as an ice cellar。

Seeing that the second child heard all the words in his heart, Qu Da didn't say anything more, blew out the candlestick, and also pulled the quilt and lay down.

This night, they lay on the kang with some residual warmth, slept very steadily, and stayed until dawn, the daily sound of pots and pans colliding sounded outside, and then they stretched their waists and sat up from the quilt, the two brothers wrapped in a thick quilt, looked at each other and smiled, turned over and got off the kang neatly, and each put on their own thick cotton robes full of patches, and pulled their shoes to the well outside to wash.

"Back pain and leg cramps, big brother, we haven't seen meat for half a month!" There are other people washing by the well platform, and the second child washes his hands and face with the well water that has just been hit, and while wiping his face with a dry cloth and handkerchief, he pushes it to the shelter at the root of the wall.

When the boss who was still washing his face heard this, he responded vaguely, and scolded with a smile: "I have a heart-eating eye." ”
