Volume 16 Han and Tang Dynasty Chapter 1493 There is a treasure in the leather jacket

In order to build an artificial river, Hu Wei can be said to have exhausted all his efforts and means, so that the artificial river project can finally be started. Starting work does not mean the end of things, it is just the beginning, and the next thing is still a headache.

Speaking of which, the first thing that needs to be a headache is money. Money is not everything, but no money is everything. Artificial rivers need money, workers need food, these all need money, who will do it for you without money?

Huang Jinfeng didn't deceive Hu Wei, she really has no money now. She is responsible for the food and clothing of more than 20,000 people in a large family, and the disaster of Langtian is very strict about the damage to financial resources.

Strictly speaking, the current Hu Wei has a bit of a little white face. Over the years, Huang Jinfeng has been in charge of all his financial problems, and he has hardly earned a penny for himself or his family.

Of course, this is also because of the different division of labor of several people. If Hu Wei also ran to make money, how could he lay down the Han and Tang dynasties.

Now the country is still there, but Hu Wei can't control this super big country for the time being, what is the matter of governing the country, you can put it aside for the time being, and now the artificial river project is Hu Wei's top priority.

If the first phase of the artificial river project cannot be completed within a year, then the whole city will be short of water, the people are unstable and unstable, and the lack of water is even more fatal, so this kind of thing must not happen.

"How do I find the money?" muttered to himself. Huang Jinfeng's side has already taken out all the funds that can be withdrawn. Now she is barely able to maintain the minimum consumption of idling. And Hongye and they have even sold their jewelry to support Hu Wei, they have already done everything they can, and if they want to find money, Hu Wei can only rely on himself now.

The last time in Langtian City, Hu Wei made a lot of money by changing the intelligence unit into a courier department in order to build Times Square, but that has proven to be a very stupid method, and Hu Wei will no longer use the army to make money.

It doesn't matter if you make a mistake once, the most feared thing is not to learn a lesson, and make the same mistake a second time. You can't fall into the same river twice.

If you don't use the army, it's impossible to let Momiji go out to work and make money, so the only person who can use Hu Wei is himself. Hu Wei thought about it, but he didn't think of a good way.

"Is it possible to ask the merchant for help?" Also help with ideas. When the Golden Phoenix had no money when he was in the five acropolis, he later used the help of the merchants to successfully build the five acropolis, and Jebel thought that maybe he could do it step by step.

Hu Wei shook his head and said: "The situation now is different from that time, and the merchants will not give us money." ”

The current situation is indeed different from that time, the Immortal Bird Legion at that time was the absolute speaker of Langtian, and it was the merchants who rushed to send money to the Golden Phoenix in order to get more benefits. But in Greentown, Hu Wei even needs to do tricks for a small matter of recruiting workers. How is it possible to get money from merchants.

As the saying goes, if you don't get up early, merchants are not stupid, they will not throw money into the black pit.

"What are you thinking?"

Hou Baowu couldn't help but ask when he looked at Tang Hun with a worried face.

"I'm thinking about how I can get the money. Tang Hun replied to Hou Baowu casually. The singers on the stage were performing, and there were applause from the side from time to time, Tang Hun really didn't hear those at all, his mind was no longer in this place of red wine and green lights.

Hou Bao Wuqi said: "Are you short of money, I still have a little, you can use it first." ”

Hou Baowu was born in Jiangmen, and he has not been short of money to spend since he was a child, and he looks down on this aspect of things. The shot is also generous. ...,

Tang Hun waved his hand and said, "It's not that I'm short of money, it's the artificial river." ”

Hou Baowu shrank his neck and said, "Then I can't help it, all my net worth is not enough to spend half a day there." ”

"So. Tang Hun took a sip of wine. Said: "The cost of the artificial river is sky-high, with His Majesty's current financial resources. There must be a big gap, and we have to help him. ”

Hou Baowu agreed: "You're right, but what can we do to help?"

If it is a minority, Hou Baowu can still have some methods, but the total cost of the artificial river project is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and many people don't know how to read that number in their lives, let alone find so much money.

Tang Hun said: "I can't do anything for the time being, but this matter must be taken to heart." By the way, pay more attention to the movements of those sons, these people are rich people, and they have far more methods than us, maybe they can give us some inspiration. ”

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it. I'll talk to you about what I find. ”

On the other side, Yaya and Ouyang Shuixian were also worried about the lack of money in the artificial river. Hu Wei's difficulties, they are more aware than Tang Hun, when the artificial river project was proposed, Yaya and Ouyang Shuixian had already realized that this project must be short of money. They have been thinking of a way first, but so far, they still have no countermeasures.

"Sister Narcissus, don't you have any treasure troves or anything like that, maybe you can get a sum of money. The girl crossed her head with her hands and pouted slightly.

Ouyang Narcissus said: "There must be a treasure house, but it's all empty, what's the use of coming." ”

For more than ten years, Ouyang Hanbing has not only supported Hu Wei politically, but also given Hu Wei the greatest support in terms of financial talent. Almost all of the money that Ning Nan has accumulated over the past hundred years, Ouyang Hanbing has invested it in Hu Wei, just as Ouyang Narcissus said, there is a treasure trove in the palace of Greentown, but there is nothing in it.

"It's disgusting. The girl stomped her feet and said, "Are we just looking at it and doing nothing?"

Ouyang Shuixian persuaded Yaya: "For the time being, we really don't have anything to do. It's a matter of making money for us. It's so difficult. ”

Yaya was a little unconvinced, but many times there were many things, and she couldn't help but be unconvinced. Everyone's ability is limited, and Yaya's ability is not in making money, speaking of which is so big, she hasn't earned a penny.

"Tang Hun, I received a message. Hou Baowu came to see Tang Hun overnight, and looking at his excited face, it seemed that he had gained something.

"What's the news?" Tang Hun played with a group of sons for a day today, which would be really tiring. Don't think you won't get tired when you play. It's also tiring to play a lot of times, especially when you don't want to.

Hou Baowu glanced around, and said to Tang Hun mysteriously: "Do you remember Chow Tai Fook?"

Tang Hun thought for a while before frowning and said, "Chow Tai Fook is not at home. Did you leave Greentown? That was a few months ago, so what are you talking about him for?"

Chow Tai Fook is a son that Tang Hun and the two just met in the circle of sons. That guy is a loser, he has eaten up all the wealth left by the family, and he owes a lot of money, and he can't stay in Greentown, and he has already run away a few months ago. When he was about to run, it was Tang Hun and Hou Baowu who helped him.

Hou Baowu said: "I saw him again today." ”

Tang Hun didn't care and said, "So what?"

Hou Baowu hurriedly said: "It's not a problem, when I was chatting with him, I overheard him leaking his mouth." He said that his family had left him a treasure map, and that he could just follow the map to find the money. It's enough for him to spend for ten lifetimes. ”...,

Tang Hun laughed and said, "What age is this, you still believe in this." My old man left me a treasure map, and if I could find it, it would take me a hundred years. ”

Tang Hun has been in the market for so many years, and he doesn't know how much he has heard such words, and he will not believe that there is such a thing.

Hou Baowu hurriedly said: "I don't look like I'm telling a lie, he owes so much money to people, and he finally ran away from Greentown, if it wasn't something, how could he come back?"

"Then did he tell you where the treasure map is?" Tang Hun still didn't believe in any treasure. Where in the world are there so many treasures. And you can touch it casually.

Hou Baowu said: "He didn't say it, but I secretly followed him for a long time and found that he seemed to be looking for something." ”

"Looking for something?" Tang Hun saw that Hou Baowu was getting more and more serious, and he was embarrassed to always talk about water.

"Yes, he should be looking for something. I saw him go to a few pawnshops. I'm asking people something, and I look like I'm in a hurry. Hou Baowu recalled today's discovery.

Tang Hun thought for a while and said, "Okay then." Anyway, if you're idle, we'll take a look with him for a few days, and we'll find out what we really find. ”

Early the next morning, Tang Hun and Hou Baowu hung Chow Tai Fook from afar. From morning to night, throughout the day, Chow Tai Fook was running shops or places like exchanging things for money.

Tang Hun Qi said: "What is he suddenly looking for, didn't he say that there is a treasure, why does he always run to the pawnshop?"

Hou Baowu guessed: "Could it be that there is some clue that he inadvertently took away." Of course, I didn't want to redeem it back then, so I forgot where it was. ”

"It makes sense, tomorrow we have to look into this matter. ”

After another two days, Tang Hun used some means and finally found out that Chow Tai Fook was looking for a sheepskin jacket. Although I can't be sure of what is in the leather jacket, looking at Chow Tai Fook's nervous appearance, there is a chance that it will be weird.

"We've got to get the jacket before he does. Hou Baowu's gaze was a little hideous.

Tang Hun smiled bitterly: "I want to too, but unfortunately we haven't seen that leather jacket, and we don't know where he went." ”

Chow Tai Fook is dying in a hurry these days. He never imagined that his family still had a huge amount of money hidden somewhere. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't stay in Greentown and had no choice but to go back to his hometown, he would probably never know that there was such a thing for the rest of his life.

Speaking of which, it is also to blame Chow Tai Fook himself, his father once left him a letter before he died. But he put it in his pocket. I've forgotten about it for so many years. If he hadn't accidentally dug out the letter that day, he wouldn't have known that there was a treasure hidden in a leather jacket left by his father.

In fact, it can't be said that it is a treasure map, because the money originally belonged to his Zhou family, but it was not placed at home, but found a place to hide it and put it away.

After reading the letter, Chow Tai Fook was stupid for a while before remembering that the leather jacket had been taken away by him. In the last days of Greentown, Chow Tai Fook's life was very unsatisfactory. Every day lives on what is left at home.

Fortunately, he left a lot of things at home, even if he relied on pawns, he could support him for a while, but because there were too many things left at home. He had forgotten when the leather jacket was used in a pawnshop.

Now the only way is to go and ask one by one. No matter how he says it, he can be regarded as a celebrity in Greentown, and the people in the field basically know him, and the things he produces are generally recorded. As long as you find the right pawnshop, you should be able to get that leather jacket back.

"The pawnshops I frequented have already asked. How could there be none?"

Chow Tai Fook was so anxious that he scratched his head, since the day he knew that there was a treasure, he had not had a good night's sleep, and that was the last chance to change the fate of his life. As long as he finds that leather jacket, he can go back to his old life of glory and wine again. ...,

"By the way, how did I forget that pawnshop!"

The words 'Four Seas Pawnshop' flashed in Chow Tai Fook's mind. It was a very small pawnshop, and they took all kinds of messy things, but the price was very low. Chow Tai Fook remembered that his leather jacket had been around for a long time, and if it could be used as a pawnshop, it should be collected by the pawnshop all over the world.

Thinking of this, Chow Tai Fook couldn't sit still. Turn around and run to the four pawnshops.

"Zhou Gongzi is here. The people at the pawnshop from all over the world really remembered Chow Tai Fook and greeted him very warmly: "What are you going to do today? It's okay, we'll take everything." ”

Chow Tai Fook was so angry in his heart, so look at him. Could he not have come to redeem something?

Chow Tai Fook snorted: "I'm not here to be a thing today, I'm here to redeem something." ”

The pawnshop guy was even happier, and said with a smile: "That's better, for knowing what Gongzi Zhou wants to ransom?"

The talent of the pawnshop is divided into two lines, whether the guests come to make things or to redeem things, they all have money to earn.

Chow Tai Fook stiffened his stomach and said, "Are all the things I was supposed to be still there?"

The guy smiled: "Look at what you said, we can't keep everything." Whether the thing is still there depends on what it is. ”

Chow Tai Fook was suddenly a little nervous, if the leather jacket was resold again, then he really had no way to get it back.

Chow Tai Fook cautiously probed: "I remember that I used to be a leather jacket......"

"Found it, it turned out to be in the four seas!" Hou Baowu exclaimed excitedly.

Tang Hun bumped into Hou Baowu. "Calm down, the things haven't reached us yet." How happy are you? ”

Hou Baowu said embarrassedly: "I saw that Zhou Tai Fook was so unlucky, and I was a little too happy for a while." ”

Chow Tai Fook was really unlucky, it was not easy for him to find the leather jacket, and when he wanted to redeem it, he was opened by a lion from the pawnshop, and the asking price was very high, and he didn't have so much money on him.

The pawnshops are all smart people, they see Chow Tai Fu Baba running back, they don't want anything, they just want the leather jacket, and they don't let go of the bite.

When the leather jacket was first collected, it was a worm eating rat's mouth in the pawnshop's mouth, and the bare board was hairless. And now it has become a rare and peerless treasure.

Chow Tai Fook found the leather jacket but didn't have enough money to get it back, and he almost died of anger. He told him that no matter what happened to the pawnshop, he would keep it for him, and he was in a hurry to find money. So the leather jacket is still in the pawnshop all over the world.

Hou Baowu saw that Zhou Taifu had gone away, and hurriedly said to Tang Hun: "Let's go and redeem the leather jacket." ”

Hou Baowu was afraid that Chow Tai Fook would find the money to come back and redeem things, so it had nothing to do with them.

Tang Hun grabbed Hou Baowu and said, "Don't worry, the people who run pawnshops are smart people." Chow Tai Fook went to redeem, and we rushed to redeem it, the flaw was too big. It's okay if they don't let me redeem it, then we can't find a place to cry.

After all, Tang Hun has been in the market for so many years, and his experience in this area is far higher than Hou Baowu, and he is more calm than Hou Baowu at this time.

Hou Baowu chewed Tang Hun's words, feeling that he had a point. The leather jacket is now in the pawnshop, people are a strong seller's market, whether to sell it, how to sell it, all by the people, if people suddenly don't sell, they really can't bite people.

Hou Baowu asked: "Then when will we redeem it, we must be fast in time, otherwise Chow Tai Fook will redeem it, and we won't have to think about anything." ”

Tang Hun smiled and said, "We don't redeem." ”

A torn leather jacket with continuous redemption in a short period of time will arouse suspicion. It doesn't matter if you go today or in a few days. Besides, the leather jacket is not their own, so what reason is there to redeem it?

Tang Hun didn't plan to redeem it from the beginning, but was ready to steal it. Anyway, the pawnshop has also sucked a lot of people's blood and sweat over the years, so let them lose some this time, and it should be a good deed for the people.

Anyway, if there is really a treasure hidden in that leather jacket, they will definitely hand it over to Hu Wei, and it will still be used on the people of Greentown when the time comes. What kind of justice and injustice, Tang Hun doesn't want to add it to himself, he only knows that doing so is worthy of his conscience. (To be continued.)
