"Brother Lin, I've waited for you to come back. You left in a hurry just now and haven't given you the things yet.”
The young marshal was waiting at the entrance of the inner courtyard of the Zhang Manor. According to the custom of the marshal's manor, soldiers were not allowed to enter. After Shi Hai left, Lin Ling glanced at his back indifferently and said,
"Liu Zi, when your father was in trouble, where was Shi Hai?”
The young commander was startled. He immediately frowned and said thoughtfully,
"I remember that before my father's accident, Captain Shi took three days off because of family matters.”
"In other words, Shi Hai wasn't present on the train where your father had an accident?”
"Yes."
The young commander nodded. Suddenly, he was stunned.
"What's wrong, Brother Lin?"
"It's nothing. I'm just asking."
Lin Ling didn't tell the young marshal that Shi Hai was the traitor who betrayed the marshal.
He knew that if the young marshal knew that his father's personal guard captain was a traitor, he would definitely be furious and kill Shi Hai.
To Lin Ling, Shi Hai was already on the death list. It was just a matter of whether he died early or late.
Because he wanted to use Shi Hai to find the whereabouts of the Special Higher Police.
"Brother Lin, you're not a talkative person. Is there something wrong with Shi Hai?”
The commander was not a fool. If he did not have some schemes, he would not have been able to control 300,000 soldiers after the commander died.
Lin Ling's sudden words also raised his guard.
"Liu Zi, did you forget what I said again?”
The young commander was stunned and immediately blurted out,
"Outsiders should avoid jellyfish when they do things.”
"But Brother Lin, this is related to my father being betrayed. I..."
"Alright."
Lin Ling interrupted,
"In the end, I will give you an answer.”
"Now, just pretend that nothing happened and prepare for your wedding.”
"Alright, Brother Lin."
The young commander pursed his lips, still a little conflicted.
"Then, Brother Lin, can I join your Jellyfish Assassination Team? That way, I can avenge my father.”
After saying this, Lin Ling was stunned for a moment and immediately became a little angry.
"Liu Zi, are you done yet?"
"You shouldn't be the military governor of the three eastern provinces, but you came here to be an assassin? Even if you are willing, will your father's spirit in heaven agree?”
"Let's not talk about your identity first. You're really not qualified to join the jellyfish.”
The young commander's face turned red from Lin Ling's words. He really wanted to know how his father got into trouble, and he realized that there was something wrong with what he said.
No matter how high his status was, he was always Lin Ling's back. After all, the latter was an ambitious man who called his father brother.
As for the Jellyfish Assassination Group, he knew a little about it.
"Alright, Liu Zi, why are you looking for me?”
The major slapped his forehead.
"I almost forgot about the important matter."
As he spoke, the young commander brought Lin Ling and his two disciples to an extremely hidden place in the Zhang Manor's inner courtyard.
The four of them stopped in front of a sealed house.
"Hmm?"
Lin Ling was stunned. Looking at the seal, he suddenly remembered the gift that the marshal had left for him before he died.
"Brother Lin, this is what my father told me before he died. Everything in here is yours.”
"Even I don't know what's inside. When my father was alive, he didn't allow anyone from the Zhang family to set foot here. Those who disobeyed the military order would be served.”
As he spoke, the young commander tore off the seal. With a creak, the two doors were pushed open.
What greeted his eyes were large black boxes. Lin Ling looked around and saw exactly ten of them.
The lock on it was a little rusty. The young commander was fumbling around with the key that the commander had given him before he died. Lin Ling frowned and had already guessed what was inside.
The moment the box was opened, a yellow light shone on the young commander's face. The young commander's pupils immediately constricted!
Gold!
It was gold!
The young commander was stunned. He opened the remaining nine chests one by one and found that they were also neatly piled with gold!
The young commander was dumbfounded. His father was quite thrifty when he was alive, especially when it came to military expenses. When the local army reported their year-end expenses, he would always examine them extremely carefully, afraid that someone would take bribes. And right here, there were actually ten chests of gold piled up…
The young commander tried to lift the box but found that he could not lift it at all. This box was at least 200 pounds.
One chest weighed 200 pounds, so ten chests would weigh 2000 pounds. That was a ton of gold.
If converted to purchasing power, it would be around 500 million today.
"Master, the quality of this gold is very pure. It doesn't look like the gold that is exiled on the market.”
Su Wenqian said in a mature manner. He immediately noticed that something was wrong.
When the young commander heard this, he immediately took out a heavy gold ingot suspiciously. When he saw the words below, he was instantly shocked again!
On it was written,"Year of the Great Qing Dynasty."
Official silver!
These 10 boxes of Gold Fighters were all official silver!
Gulp.
The young commander couldn't help but swallow his saliva. This was the first time Su Wenqian and Chi Tiecheng had seen official silver. They had never seen so much money before, and their faces were filled with shock.
"I remember now. When the Qing Dynasty was about to be overthrown, a group of Eight Banners descendants wearing yellow mandarin jackets rushed here from Beiping overnight and gave my father a lot of wealth, begging my father to keep them safe.”
"I think that this gold is the annual silver that was transported from the Qing Dynasty's national treasury at that time.”
The young commander touched the chest full of gold. The texture was indeed very good.
"Wow! Master, we're rich now!"
"Master, with so much money, can you give me a set of equipment to make Western pastry?”
The two young men opened their mouths wide and said in shock.
"Hmm?"
Lin Ling raised his eyebrows, and the two teenagers immediately shut their mouths.
"Brother Lin, I didn't expect my father to prepare such a big gift for you.”
The major laughed loudly.
Lin Ling nodded, his face emotionless.
"What's wrong, Brother Lin? You don't like it?"
When the young commander saw Lin Ling's expressionless face and how he treated money like dirt, he thought that an expert like Lin Ling had already seen through money and did not need it at all. He immediately asked with some doubt.
The young commander was also secretly thinking,'If this ton of gold is not as good as the other party's eyes, then I can't even give him a decent gift…'
The young commander's questioning gaze met with Lin Ling, who had a calm expression and crossed his arms. The latter's lips opened slightly.
"No."
"I was thinking."
"How do we transport these ten chests of gold back?”
