As long as it can be opened.

Han Du didn't ask further questions. Anyway, he only needed to pay for the shares.

I just don’t know how many shares Tang He gave to Lao Zhu to make him work so hard for seafood. Judging from Lao Zhu's attitude towards the officials, I'm afraid it won't be low.

Han Du and Tang He chatted for a while and then stood up to leave.

A few days later, Han Du was told by Xiong Ting that the backyard of the shop had been cleaned.

Han Du couldn't wait to pack his bags and prepare to move there.

Uncle Mu followed Han Du carrying the package.

Han Du was about to say goodbye to his parents when he saw his parents, sisters, and maidservants all coming here.

Han Du came forward with a smile and said, "Father, mother, the child is just about to say goodbye to the two elders."

There seemed to be tears flashing in Mrs. Liu's eyes, and she picked up a handkerchief to wipe them from time to time.

After hearing Han Du's words, Han De's face darkened and he said, "What farewell? It's just a few days in the inner city. What nonsense are you talking about?"

Han Du immediately knew that he had just made a mistake, and quickly corrected himself: "Yes, yes, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue."

Sister Jingyun didn't feel sad at all, it was just that she looked a little unhappy because she didn't live in the inner city.

Suddenly, Han Du glanced and saw Qing Lian also holding a package.

He asked in surprise: "What are you doing?"

Qinglian lowered her head shyly, not daring to answer Han Du's words.

Dad intervened and explained: "Of course I'm going with you. Not only your mother, but also my husband are worried about you being alone outside. Let Qinglian follow you so that I can take care of you."

If I really moved into the inner city for the convenience of going to court, then it would be nothing for Qinglian to follow me.

But......

Before Han Du could refuse, his father waved his hand to interrupt what Han Du wanted to say.

He said straightly: "If you don't want Qinglian to follow you, then don't go either, your mother said so."

Han Du was choked and turned to look at his mother. Seeing her tearful eyes and looking reluctant to leave, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Okay." Han Du said with a smile.

In fact, I felt bitter in my heart. Qinglian went with me. What should I do if I encounter danger? Now Han Du has no choice but to hope that Lao Zhu can do more to protect him and Qing Lian.

In this way, Han Du took Qing Lian all the way to the backyard of the shop. Since there was a front door in front, Han Du entered through the back door.

As soon as he entered, he was greeted by Xiong Ting, who had received the news early.

"Sir, please come with me."

Xiong Ting took Han Du to the backyard and took Han Du to look around. As he walked, he explained: "This backyard is very big. You can choose where you want to live. Moreover, this backyard has always been taken care of, and my subordinates cleaned it up without much effort."

Han Du looked around and decided to live in the house in the middle. First of all, this house is the largest and should be the main house of this courtyard. I don’t know if the place he lived in in his previous life was too small, but now Han Du likes to live in a spacious place, the more spacious the better.

It was the same when he was in the Han family. The house Han Du originally lived in was also very large. Later, if it weren't for someone pretending to be a ghost, Han Du would never have stayed in those small rooms.

Secondly, there is a huge dam in front of this house, which is spacious and open. You must know that Han Du lives here now to avoid danger. If there is any movement, Han Du can run to the dam as quickly as possible. Only in this way can Lao Zhu's people easily notice the abnormality and take action to protect themselves.

When avoiding danger, the most taboo thing is to run into some hidden places with nooks and crannies. Whether such a place can avoid the murderer's search is still unknown. The most important thing is that once the murderer catches him in such a place, he will be killed without even making a sound.

Although there are not many furnishings in this room, it has everything it should have. For people like Han Du, who have low requirements, this is enough.

When Qinglian saw that Han Du decided to live here, she put down her package and went to tidy up the house. She was Han Du's maid, and when she went out, Madam Qian Ding Ling asked her to look at Han Du.

Naturally, she lives in the same place as the Han family, living in the same house as Han Du.

Seeing that Han Du had settled down, Xiong Ting rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Sir, I wonder if I can lend a moment to speak?"

Um?

Seeing the deep meaning in Xiong Ting's eyes, Han Du pondered for a while, left Qinglian to clean up the house alone, and followed Xiong Ting out.

"What's the matter?" Han Du asked in a low voice with a serious tone.

Xiong Ting made a gesture of attaching his ears, and Han Du lowered his head.

After a while, Han Du whispered: "Let's go and have a look."

Xiong Ting took Han Du to a remote house, pushed the door open, came to a dilapidated wall, and twisted on the holder of an oil lamp.

Following the clattering sound, a passage gradually appeared on the ground.

It turns out that what Xiong Ting wanted to tell Han Du just now was that he discovered a secret room here.

Xiong Ting held an oil lamp and went down the steps.

Han Du followed and walked into the passage.

The passage is not deep, it only takes about twenty steps to reach the end.

Xiong Ting turned on the oil lamp a little brighter so that it could illuminate the secret room as much as possible.

"Sir, this secret room is quite big, almost the size of two rooms. When my subordinates discovered it, not only was it empty and empty, but it was also quite dirty. It seemed that it had not been used for a long time, and I didn't know it. What is the secret room used for?"

What else can be done? After spending so much effort to build such a secret room, it can't be used to store debris, right?

People at this time had the habit of hiding money in cellars.

According to Han Du's guess, this secret room was either used to store gold and silver or to store something important.

It's a pity that when they left, they were obviously in an orderly manner. This secret room was cleaned up, not even a hair was left for Han Du.

But even so, Han Du was very happy. Just from the secret room itself, Han Du made money.

How should I use this secret room? Han Du rubbed his chin and thought.

Forget about hoarding gold and silver. With my current financial situation, there is no need for it. It's good to use it as a laboratory. I have too many secrets. In the past, I kept them in the banknote bureau. If it is placed in this secret room, it can be more hidden.

"Don't tell anyone else about this secret room." Han Du ordered and left with Xiong Ting.

...

The Banknote Bureau and the Banknote Printing Bureau are very busy right now. They need to print new banknotes, bake glass, and make mirrors.

In this way, Han Du can't even go to the Baochao Office every day, let alone the Shanzi Camp.
