Jinyiwei has nine thousand households, with a total of nine chief officials and eighteen deputy thousand households. In addition, there are nearly fifty-four hundred households.

After that, there are the general flag, the small flag, and the strongman...

As for the lowest-level warriors, their annual salary was only thirty-two taels of silver. Adding in a few stones of rice and grain, the salary would not exceed forty taels at most.

But now, as long as he digs down, no matter whether he can dig something out or not, the silver reward given by Zhao Yu will exceed the salary of the strongmen for a year!

But looking at the cesspit exposed to the air in front of them, everyone subconsciously took a step back.

This fifty taels of silver... is not easy to earn!

"Liu Er, I heard that you owed dozens of taels of famine at Yongchang Gambling House. Isn't this an opportunity right now?"

"Uh... No, no need. I'm going to pay off the debt with the house deed after I leave the office tonight."

Liu Er glanced at the cesspit, waved his hand quickly, then turned to look at his colleagues beside him and said: "Yu Laosan, I remember that your mother is ill in bed, and the money that Master Qianhu has rewarded... you should take it!!"

Among the Jin Yiwei, Yu Laosan, who is famous for his filial piety, immediately shook his head: "Well... I think my mother can hold on for a while longer..."

…

From far away, you can feel a fishy smell going straight to the top of your head, and even from a little closer, you can feel it irritating your eyes.

If we jump down directly, it's unclear whether we can come back up.

"One hundred taels, if anyone goes down, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver!!"

Seeing that everyone was motionless, Zhao Yu increased the stakes again.

In fact, although Zhao Yu has integrated memories, he came from a relatively peaceful era after all.

Subconsciously, he was still influenced by the rules of his previous life.

Otherwise, if it were another Qianhu today, even if there was an endless purgatory in front of them, at the given order, those strong men would grit their teeth and jump in!

Daqian Factory Guard has never been an unreasonable place!

Reward a hundred taels of silver!

After Zhao Yu said these words, many strong men were still moved.

But if you move forward a little bit, you will shed tears because of the spicy taste. The taste... is so overbearing!

thump!

Just when everyone was hesitating, a figure walked out of the crowd, his face wrapped in several layers of cloth, and he jumped directly into the manure pit with a shovel in his hand.

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward. In front of money, no matter how domineering the smell is, it is not as attractive as the white money.

There is the first one, there is the second one, there is the third one...

This toilet was not big. Before the three walls were dismantled, it could only accommodate two people. After being dismantled, five strong men began to wield shovels in the pit.

"How can you be sure that there must be something fishy under this pit?"

Erha pinched his nose, looked at the ruthless man digging a hole, and asked doubtfully.

Zhao Yu, who was far away, pointed to the door panel that Lu Jianxing had removed and said, "Have you ever seen a manhole in any mansion that was locked?!"

"Sir, although locked latrines are rare, many mansions still have rules. In order to prevent servants from using them, it is not uncommon for the latrines in the inner hall to be locked!"

When Lu Jianxing heard Zhao Yu's words, he frowned and explained.

Zhao Yu smiled faintly, then pointed to the lock and said: "It is not unusual for a latrine to be locked, but this latrine is used to solve the cycle of grains and is not a place to place gold, jewelry, and shells. Do you need this eight-treasure wishful lock?

?”

Eight treasures wishful lock?

Upon hearing this, Lu Jianxing stepped forward, covering his mouth and nose, and picked up the lock on the door panel.

After observing carefully for a moment, I discovered that this seemingly ordinary copper lock had an octagonal keyhole!

"What does this mean?"

When I looked at the lock in Lu Jianxing's hand, I was still confused.

Zhao Yu rolled his eyes, then turned around and took out something from the treasure box.

This thing is called Qianji Gucuo, and it is made of more than a dozen extremely soft copper wires wrapped with countless small and hard copper quinoas.

This thing claims that there is no ingenious lock in the world that it cannot open.

Then Zhao Yu took out another brocade handkerchief, placed the Eight Treasures Ruyi Lock on the brocade handkerchief, and then carefully inserted the Qianji Gucuo in his hand into the keyhole.

After groping for a long time, the Thousand Machine Bone in Zhao Yu's hand turned four times to the left and right.

Click...

The seemingly ordinary copper lock was finally unlocked.

"This Eight Treasures Ruyi Lock has sixteen lock slots inside, distributed in eight different directions. If you want to open it, even if you have a key, you need to twist every step correctly..."

Zhao Yu threw the Eight Treasures Ruyi Lock to Lu Jianxing, then turned to Erha and said: "Who has eaten so much that he just needs to go to the toilet, so why does it take so much effort?

If there is leakage one day, this lock alone can stop the shit in the crotch!!"

vomit……

After Erha heard Zhao Yu's explanation, he turned around and retched.

Listening to this guy's explanation, why does it feel more disgusting than that smelly latrine?

"Sir! Something was discovered!!"

At this moment, there was a sound from the pit.

Zhao Yu signaled Lu Jianxing to come forward to check, but he said to Erha beside him: "Take a few people and go to the well in the front yard to get some water!"

Erha was eager to leave this place where the stench was so high, so he immediately turned around and ran towards the front yard with four or five strong men.

"Sir, there is a layer of wooden boards under the latrine, and there are four wooden boxes hidden underneath!"

Lu Jianxing returned to Zhao Yu, with a hint of admiration in his tone and expression.

As expected of a hereditary inspector, they just wandered around the courtyard and discovered this place that they had neglected to search.

"Lift the box up and rinse the surface with well water."

Zhao Yu stood far away. Although he knew that those boxes contained real gold and silver, he did not want to get close at all.

The taste is too strong...

After a while, Erha led people to fetch more than a dozen barrels of well water and rinsed the surfaces of the four boxes cleanly.

Zhao Yu then signaled Lu Jianxing to carry the box in front of him.

"Open!"

Looking at the four wooden boxes placed in front of him, Zhao Yu waved his hands and said.

Behind them, Shen Lian and Jin Xiaochuan drew out their Xiuchun knives, stepped forward, cut off the back of the box, and opened the lid of the wooden box.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!!

The moment the box was opened, there was a gasp of air from all around.

Among the four boxes, three of them were filled with silver, roughly estimated to be tens of thousands of taels.

Zhao Yu's eyes were focused on the last slightly smaller wooden box.

Half of this box contained fifty taels of gold coins, but what really caught Zhao Yu's attention was the pile of letters next to these gold coins.

Zhao Yu stepped forward, picked up one of the letters, and after opening the sealing wax, he just glanced at it twice, and Zhao Yu's expression changed in shock.

this……

This is a secret letter from Zhao Jingzhong’s affair with the Jin Dynasty!!

Why would Zhao Jingzhong put such a fatal thing here with Zhang Ying?

Zhao Yu, who was holding the letter, was thinking rapidly. After a while, he gradually understood.

Zhang Ying also knew about Zhao Jingzhong's affair with the Jin people and even participated in it.

These letters should have been kept by Zhang Ying without telling Zhao Jingzhong.

Otherwise, when An Jianqing killed Zhang Ying and asked Zhao Yu to ransack his house today, Zhao Jingzhong would definitely try his best to stop it!

As for the purpose of Zhang Ying leaving these things... naturally they are used to save lives at critical moments!
