Chapter 1312 You are provoking me
"Mr. Jin is so concerned about this matter. Could it be that the 500,000 jin of silver coins were really stolen by Mr. Jin?" Zhao Chen did not answer Jin Chun, but asked him back.
Jin Chun sneered and showed a mocking look on his face: "Shu Zhao's temptation is too obvious."
"Is it done by the officials? Zhao Shangshu will check it out by himself."
"Brother Ma, take advantage of the day left, hurry back and settle down. After all, this is the last time Brother Ma has been home."
"Ha ha--"
Jin Chun left with a smile, his face full of complacent expressions.
Mahu's face looked very ugly.
The whole person looks depressed.
"Sir Shangshu, my subordinates want to ask for leave to go home." Ma Hu looked up and said to Zhao Chen.
Ma Hu knew that if he recovered 500,000 jin of silver, he would probably be scolded by the emperor.
Then he stopped at the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue in this life.
This is also quite good.
But within one day, they wanted to recover 500,000 jin of silver coins, but they had no idea.
This is completely impossible.
Even if Zhao Chen paid for the money himself, he filled the hole of 500,000.
It's useless.
Sooner or later the emperor will know about this. Zhao Chen will use money to fill it out. Not only will he die in Mahu, but even Zhao Chen will be implicated.
Therefore, Ma Hu felt that he still listened to Jin Chun and asked his family to set up a mourning hall in advance so as not to be hasty in the future.
"I can't find 500,000 jin of silver coins, Mr. Ma thinks your family will not be implicated?"
"It is better to die directly than to be free."
"Let's go and check the scene with me." Zhao Chen said a few words, then went to the scene of the accident.
...
Miss Xue helped Zhao Chen to calculate the account book of the Ministry of Revenue.
But I also heard that 500,000 jin of silver was stolen overnight.
Thinking that if this matter is not handled properly, it will definitely involve Zhao Chen, and Miss Xue’s family has no intention of dealing with the matter at her hands.
Put down the account book and come out of the government office.
I happened to meet Zhao Chen who was about to go to the crime scene.
"Mr. Zhao, I'll go with you." Miss Xue and Zhao Chen shouted and trotted over.
"The 500,000 jin of silver coins cannot be easily transported out of the Ministry of Revenue, and it is impossible to have at least one day."
"So I think that the money must still be in the Ministry of Revenue." Miss Xue's family walked to Zhao Chen and said.
"Miss Xue has the same idea as me." Zhao Chen nodded and smiled.
Five hundred thousand jin of silver can hold dozens of ox carts.
Such a big noise cannot be discovered by people on the street.
Moreover, there were soldiers on duty yesterday at the entrance of the Ministry of Revenue.
They were always at the door, but they didn't see anything, so the money must be still in the government office.
"Sir Shangshu, the key is that we have reviewed the entire yamen office now, but we have not found anything."
"Where can this money be hidden?" Ma Hu and Zhao Chen shook their heads.
When they found that the money was gone, they turned over the entire government office and searched for it.
But what is disappointing is that nothing is seen.
"Look for it slowly, there is still a day left." Zhao Chen said.
As long as this thing is still under the Ministry of Revenue, they can always find it.
The three of them came to the warehouse.
The yamen runners of Jingzhao Mansion have surrounded this place.
It's funny to say that dozens of people are guarding an empty warehouse.
When I opened the warehouse door, a musty smell came from inside.
Even if I come in and calculate the money every day, there is still a strong smell of rottenness.
In many places, you can even see water stains after rotting.
"Sir Shangshu, the 500,000 jin of silver coins were originally stored here, but now..." Ma Hu pointed to the open space in front of him and said to Zhao Chen.
Mahu has no hope at all at this moment.
Although the money is likely to be still under the Ministry of Revenue, they can't find it.
This is no different from being stolen from money.
When the emperor knew about it, he would definitely use his Mahu's head to wash the chamber pot.
"There are so many footprints here, you all step on them?" asked Miss Xue and Ma Hu.
There are countless footprints on the open space.
The footprints are complicated, but they are all the same soles.
"I don't know either." Ma Hu shook his head.
"Young Master Zhao, all the same sole prints, it should be done by your Ministry of Revenue."
"Although the steps are complicated, they only have a difference in size."
"But it's useless. We can't interrogate everyone one by one." Miss Xue's judgment was made and shook her head on her own.
The same shoe prints can only mean that this matter was robbed by the Ministry of Revenue.
It won't help them determine who did it.
I can't find where the money goes.
If one interrogates one by one, it will not only be too late for a day.
It doesn't make any sense either.
If there is no evidence, the real murderer will not be able to attack.
Seeing Miss Xue’s family so meticulous, Zhao Chen felt much more relieved.
He asked Miss Xue's family to calculate the account book, of course he hoped that she would be fine.
Zhao Chen was still very satisfied with her observation so carefully.
"I haven't discovered before that Miss Xue's family actually has the potential to be a detective." Zhao Chen said with a smile.
"Detective?" Miss Xue's family was puzzled.
"that is……"
"Shangshu Zhao, what did you find?" Jin Chun suddenly came out from somewhere, with a sarcastic look on his face.
Zhao Chen felt that his temper might have been much more restrained recently.
Otherwise, the old guy in front of him would have been kicked away by him.
"Mr. Jin, are you provoking me?" Zhao Chen asked in a cold look.
Jin Chun's face changed suddenly.
He suddenly remembered the guy in front of him who seemed harmless, but he was actually the crazyest guy in the Tang Dynasty.
If he annoyed him, he might have met the King of Hell before Mahu.
"If you don't dare, how dare you, the subordinates dare to provoke Shangshu Zhao."
"Just come over and ask, there is no other meaning."
"Don't take Zhao Shangshu to heart!" Although he hated Zhao Chen in his heart, Jin Chun dared not offend Zhao Chen again for his face.
Otherwise, if he was killed by Zhao Chen with one punch, he would be stealing the chicken and losing rice.
"I don't dare to watch it."
"Don't fart in front of me." Zhao Chen said two words, Jin Chun's face turned red.
The lady of the Xue family quietly curled her lips and thought to herself that Zhao Chen didn't want to be as arrogant as before.
These arrogant words are like hooligans who are cursing on the streets.
"Mr. Ma, come and take a look at other places." Zhao Chen turned around and said to Ma Hu.
I glanced at the corner of my eyes at Miss Xue's family and saw her staring at her.
Zhao Chen subconsciously thought there was something dirty on his face, so he wiped his face with his hands.
When the lady of Xue's family saw Zhao Chen's actions, she knew that she had been staring at Zhao Chen for too long, and she felt a little embarrassed.
He lowered his head and his face turned red.
The Ministry of Revenue Affairs Office is not too big or too small.
In Zhao Chen's opinion, there are only about twenty football fields.
But all the officials of the Ministry of Revenue put down their work. If they didn't find the lost 500,000 yuan, they would not have any good results.
Along the way, there were all the officials of the Ministry of Revenue who were knocking and striking everywhere.
