Because Shopkeeper Liang and his team joined in, Zhou Yunshu took six people with her when she left the team.

Among them, Du Mazi, Wei Zhong and Qingfeng are indispensable. Another one is shopkeeper Liang's third brother, and there are two stronger ones among his own.

When Du Mazi took two strong men to pull the cart, Liang Laosan took Zhou Yunshu and others to the yard diagonally behind the inn, spoke to the people in the yard, and pulled out a mule from the yard. car.

"This yard is rented by my second brother, and the mule cart is used by my second brother to buy vegetables for the inn." Liang Laosan patted the mule and said with a smile: "I originally thought that the mule cart would be cheaper for Lao Huang. , now it’s my family’s that belongs to my family.”

Everyone went to meet Du Mazi and the others in Liang Laosan's slightly proud voice.

The meeting place was where Zhou Yunshu and Du Mazi saw the Red Lotus Envoy last night. After everyone gathered, everyone immediately ran to Nancheng.

In the capital, there are sayings that the west city is rich, the east city is rich, the north city is poor, and the south city is cheap. Although Anshan County is not so clear-cut, the south city is also mostly a place for brothels, music halls, and gambling houses.

The county magistrate's private treasury was behind the brothel where Du Mazi went. If Du Mazi hadn't asked more about it because he was curious, he would never have thought that the official would put his private treasury near the brothel.

In order not to attract attention, this private treasury usually only has thugs in the yard. Anyway, not far away is Fengyue Tower, which is a local snake in Anshan County. No one would think of causing trouble on his territory.

But Du Mazi heard from the little errand boy that although no one was making trouble, the thugs were doing a lot of stealing.

In their words, there are so many things in the private treasury anyway, even if there is less, you can't tell. Moreover, they did not patrol diligently. They just pretended to be in their own territory and spent their nights gambling and gambling.

When Zhou Yunshu and others arrived at Nancheng, there were gradually more pedestrians on the road.

Of course, this is mostly a relative term. You can occasionally see people in a hurry on the road, but there won't be anyone at all.

Because it was early in the morning, and the Nancheng side was a bit far away from the county government office and the city gate, there was almost no noise or smashing sound except for the faint light of fire.

Even if you hear a little bit, you will think that someone is drunk and acting crazy. This is a common thing in Nancheng and is not uncommon.

It was under this circumstance that Zhou Yunshu and others knocked on the door of the county magistrate's private treasury.

Yes, just knock on the door.

Du Mazi felt very unsure when he knocked on the door. He originally wanted to bring a few more people to rush in, carry the food, and then leave. What would happen if he knocked on the door now?

Aren't they here to rob food?

Who would be so polite to someone who robs food, but still knocks on the door to get in?

Du Mazi was puzzled, but thinking of the knife that Zhou Yunshu had dropped on his neck before, he still knocked on the door of the treasury resignedly.

It is said that there are only four people guarding the private treasury, and the six of them should be opponents.

Thinking of this, Du Mazi knocked on the door harder and harder.

"Who is knocking ghosts in the middle of the night!" An impatient roar came from behind the door.

The door was pushed open with a bang, and when the burly and shirtless man appeared in front of Zhou Yunshu and others, Wei Zhong rushed in front of Zhou Yunshu almost immediately.

Oh my god, this stinky man almost stained the eyes of their princess!

Zhou Yunshu's eyes darkened: "..."

Zhou Yunshu stretched out her hand to pull Wei Zhong, but Wei Zhong remained unmoved.

"Step aside."

"This man has no clothes on." Wei Zhong explained.

"I'm not blind."

Zhou Yunshu guessed from Wei Zhong's subconscious abnormality that he did know her identity and that she was a woman.

Seeing the aura of military service all over his body, Zhou Yunshu already doubted whether he was his grandfather's son.

The reason why there was no doubt whether it was Ji Sheng's person was because in Zhou Yunshu's eyes, she and Ji Sheng were just a respectable couple, and he would not bother with it after he asked himself to leave the court.

"Who are you!"

When the thugs came out and saw so many people in front of the door, they suddenly woke up, especially when they saw that each of them had a knife in their hand.

"Do you know whose territory this is! Believe it or not, if I shout, my brothers will..."

Wei Zhong refused to get out of the way, so Zhou Yunshu had no choice but to walk out on her own.

She took out a token from her arms and handed it to the thug, "We are here to carry food to the Red Lotus Envoy on your orders."

She took a step forward, looked at the silent thug and said, "You don't recognize my token, do you?"

She picked up this token when she went to deliver water to the government office. She originally thought she wouldn't use it, but she didn't expect to use it so quickly.

The thug swallowed. He did know him, and because he knew him, his originally arrogant expression changed instantly after seeing the token.

"Look, the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family no longer knows each other!"

The thug opened the courtyard door and said to Zhou Yunshu diligently: "Sir, he looks like a scholar. Could it be that he is the new master in the county government office?"

"Don't talk too much when you're not supposed to ask." Zhou Yunshu said, casting a sidelong glance at his upper body and saying disgustedly: "It's an insult to politeness."

Zhou Yunshu spoke very rudely, but just because she spoke rudely, the thugs felt that Zhou Yunshu and others were really sent by the county magistrate. After all, those scholars had never looked down upon them.

"Young man, go get dressed now!"

"No need, it's important to do something important." Zhou Yunshu glanced around and asked, "Why is it just you?"

The thug quickly said: "Also, also, go to the latrine, I will call you right now!"

Zhou Yunshu waved her hands impatiently and said, "No, it's important to do something important."

She looked at the thug, "If it's done well, there will be no reward."

The thug's eyes widened when he heard this, "If you have anything to do, just give me your orders!"

"Envoy Honglian is in a hurry, otherwise you wouldn't let me come to this private treasury. I don't even have a decent car." Zhou Yunshu answered the thug's last question smoothly.

Just now he was wondering why it wasn't pulled by a horse-drawn carriage or a mule cart.

The thug immediately said: "I'll go find it for you. There are three mule carts and a carriage in the Fengyue Building ahead. I'll get them for you!"

Zhou Yunshu stood there, looked at the thugs and said, "Okay."

Zhou Yunshu pointed at Wei Zhong and his two men and said: "Ask your people to take my people to drive, and we will check the private treasury ourselves."

The thugs didn't think there was anything wrong. Although they were stealing a little, they didn't take much. Even if they checked, they couldn't find anything, so they left with Wei Zhong and the two of them very relieved.

When there were only four people left in the yard, Zhou Yunshu and Du Mazi, Zhou Yunshu said to Du Mazi, "Can you open locks?"

Du Mazi looked at Zhou Yunshu with as much admiration as he wanted!

How could someone be able to read, kill, and lie to others at the same time?
