: The Thief

Although Zhou Dexing was very distressed when he spent 100 taels of gold, Zhou Dexing quickly felt relieved when he thought that he had contributed to Zhu Yunwen's journey to ascend the throne.

Next, what he had to consider was how to let Zhu Yuanzhang know about this...

Zhu Ye has been busy garrisoning grain recently.

Although prices have risen due to the snow, and food has risen a lot, because he has a steady stream of salt in his hands, he doesn't have to worry about money.

Zhu Ye stocked up a lot of not only grain, but also charcoal.

The Zeng brothers have now separated from the industry that produces fine salt and handed over the specific matters to Ma Sanbao. The two of them are temporarily responsible for the purchase and storage of grain.

Zhu Ye, who had just returned home from outside, informed the Zeng brothers to go to the grain warehouse to transport grain, but they were told that someone at home seemed to have come.

"thief?"

Zhu Ye was surprised. Has he spent too generously when selling grain recently and was targeted by someone?

A big tree attracts wind, and it is indeed easy to cause trouble.

"I don't know, but some of the seals on the doors placed by the two of me at home were obviously touched."

After all, the Zeng brothers were people who had been with the Jinyiwei. Some habits were still preserved even if they left the Jinyiwei.

"But what have you lost?"

Zhu Ye asked Zeng Yi.

"Nothing was lost. The thief came and went quickly, and we couldn't find it.

If I hadn't found the seal had moved when I entered the house, I wouldn't have been sure that anyone had come."

Before Zeng Yi could speak, Zeng Fan said, secretly hating that he was slowing down and was actually escaped from his nose.

Because the Zeng brothers once told Zhu Ye about the seal in the door, Zhu Ye knew about this and also made accusation, after all, he was prepared for it.

Therefore, even Ma Sanbao knew that he would pay special attention to the integrity of these seals when entering and leaving on weekdays.

"Just in case, you still have to check it out carefully."

Zeng Yi took Zeng Fan's words and said.

“It’s right.”

Zhu Ye walked to the place where he specially stored the silver notes and found that the seal here had not been passive.

I searched at home and looked at all the places where the seals had been moved. I was sure that there was nothing missing, but there was one more thing.

"What's this?"

Zeng Fan asked as he looked at the package in front of him.

"have no idea."

Zhu Ye frowned. If something goes wrong, there must be something evil.

Whose thieves don’t steal things, but instead give things to others?

"You'll know if you look!"

Zhu Ye opened the thing readily and a golden seal appeared in front of everyone.

"Damn it, it's a thief.

This thief is so smart that he actually put the thief in someone else's home."

Zhu Ye sighed.

Zhu Ye didn't know that this was the Golden Seal of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. In his opinion, this thief might be being chased by the owner, so he hid it in his home.

After all, as long as there is no one to get all the stolen goods, we cannot force ourselves to say that they are thieves.

But both of the Zeng brothers changed their faces when they saw the golden seal.

Zhu Ye doesn't know him, but they know him.

After all, when he was in the Jinyiwei, Zhu Yuanzhang looked for the golden seal and gave everyone the Jinyiwei a portrait of the golden seal.

The two looked at each other, not knowing whether to change or not to tell Zhu Ye the details of this thing.

"Hey, it's such a good thing that comes to your door.

If you know I'm short of money, you'll give me money."

Zhu Ye was secretly happy.

After all, gold can be exchanged for a lot of silver and can also store a lot of food and grass.

"Uncle..." Zeng Yi was about to persuade Zhu Ye, but was startled by the gold that Zhu Ye threw over.

"I took it and melted it, and bought it all for silver and all for food and charcoal."

Zhu Ye ordered happily.

Anyway, it’s a stolen person and I don’t know who the owner is. Just treating the owner as the owner and doing good deeds can be regarded as accumulating virtue for the owner.

Zeng Yi was so scared that his face turned pale. This... this is a golden seal. It seems that his uncle really doesn't know what this is, so he actually let him melt it.

"Uncle, this... this is a seal!"

Zeng Yi was so scared that he was stuttering.

"print?

I know! Isn’t this just a golden seal? I can’t melt it even if it’s not a golden seal.”

Zhu Ye looked disdainful.

After all, the shape of the Northern Yuan Dynasty's golden seal is not as square as the jade seal in Zhu Ye's impression, so Zhu Ye thought it was just a personal seal and did not take it seriously.

I still complain in my heart, how can I carve a big seal if I have nothing to do?

Zeng Yi was stunned when he heard this. It turned out that Zhu Ye knew it was a golden seal.

But after thinking about it, Zhu Ye could actually melt the gold seal and replace it with food even though he knew it was a golden seal. It was indeed a great thing.

Especially when the two brothers of the Zeng family knew that Zhu Ye was buying and hoarding food, grass and charcoal, Zhu Ye's actions had gradually sublimated in their minds.

It is the one who judges a gentleman with his own villain's heart.

Zhu Ye’s noble act of treating fame, wealth and money as dung is indeed not something that the servants like them can understand.

"Then I'll go and melt."

Zeng Yi was already at this time without doubt and full of respect.

"Go and go."

Zhu Ye waved his hand and said calmly.

"It's true that he is the emperor's grandson. His courage is incomparable to ordinary people."

Zeng Yi and Zeng Fan looked at each other except for the family.

At this time, Zhou Dexing had already sent the news about the Golden Seal to Jiang Yin.

Although it was not clear that the golden seal was in Zhu Ye's hands, it still revealed some information, allowing Jiang Yan to know the appearance of the golden seal.

When Jiang Yan knew about it, Zhu Yuanzhang knew about it.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who knew the news, ordered the Jinyiwei people to go to Huamanlou to investigate.

Because Zhou Dexing's people deliberately left the golden seal bought by Zhu Ye's name, Jiang Yan tortured the boss of Hua Manlou, the result was that the golden seal was bought by a young man named Zhu Mingye.

Jiang Yan told Zhu Yuanzhang the news with a heavy expression.
