On the land in the west of Beijing, a pair of fast horses are galloping from west to east. A thin layer of winter snow remains on the withered yellow land. The cold light of ice flashes in the small river ditch. The northwest wind rolls the withered yellow grass blades in the wind. Zhong Feiwu chased the war horse closely from behind.
Sitting on the horse were Yang Zhi and his newly recruited bodyguards. The two of them ran towards the capital with serious and silent faces. Just now, the Xishan Camp received an urgent telegram from the court, asking him to rush to the Forbidden City immediately.
There are rolling fields and villages on both sides of the post road. The tall Wanshou Mountain behind a tiger skin wall in the south is covered with snow. Qingyi Garden, which was burned down by the British and French allied forces, is still in semi-ruins. The empire of the boss and so on Nian Guang was at war, not to mention that there was no money to rebuild this place. Even the Old Summer Palace, the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens, was in ruins.
Yang Zhi once visited the ruins of Old Summer Palace and Qingyi Garden, which are now guarded by the Eight Banners soldiers. In the past few years, local people destroyed the buildings here. Food, bricks, wood, and treasures occasionally found in the ruins, All attracted many people to flock here.
If the first looting by the British and French allied forces only opened a wound on healthy skin, then the long period of "treasure hunting" of the Qing people was the re-erosion of the wound by bacteria and viruses. The damage they caused was no less fatal than that of the allied forces. That knife.
Yang Zhi tilted his head and looked at the ruins of palaces on Wanshou Mountain and the centuries-old trees transplanted from all over the country. He thought about the beautiful scenery of Kunming Lake's rippling blue waves. Although it was dilapidated, it still could not conceal the beauty of the past.
Not to mention the Old Summer Palace in the northeast. The ruins alone shocked Yang Zhi. He really couldn't imagine what a beautiful fairyland it would be when the Old Summer Palace was intact.
The horse was going very fast, and Yang Zhi was distracted. He thought about the splendor of the royal gardens, and then turned around and thought about what had happened in the past few days. He could probably guess what the urgent call from the Forbidden City was about today. It should be about the same. A letter came from Hong Kong.
Yang Zhi's new life started after meeting Li Tuo. Since his response in Yangxin Hall was praised by Cixi and others, Yang Zhi's luck suddenly exploded.
Since Yang Zhi has deeply revealed Xiao Letian's background, the court's understanding of Xiao Letian has deepened, so now no one doubts Yang Zhi's loyalty. Cixi and others have regarded Yang Zhi as a trustworthy confidant. .
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Cixi even rewarded him with two beautiful palace maids, which made Yang Zhi extremely beautiful. This boy would only like this in his life.
Not only was Yang Zhi valued highly by the royal family, but his new friend Li Tuo also brought him unexpected gains.
When the gray official class represented by Li Tuo officially integrated with Yang Zhi, Yang Zhi suddenly found that the world in front of him suddenly became brighter.
Before he could return to work at Xishan Camp, a handyman from the printing factory who had not noticed much before came to Yang Zhi with a gift to congratulate Yang Zhi on the new two stars.
Moreover, the gift given was not too much or too little, which was exactly forty-four taels. Normally, this number should not appear on the gift list. It was very unlucky.
But Yang Zhi knew that this was an agreement Li Tuo had made with him before. As long as he found the amount of forty-four taels of gift money, it would mean that the person coming was a subordinate that Yang Zhi could trust.
With Li Tuo's help, Yang Zhi never expected that there would be so many petty officials in his Xishan Camp and the internal banknote printing factory who were working with Li Tuo.
After paying homage to him, these subordinates who seemed to be respectful before have officially become his direct descendants that Yang Zhi can trust.
In just ten days, Yang Zhi, together with twelve petty officials at the banknote printing factory, stole 60,000 yuan in household bonds in one go.
It is said to be stealing, but Yang Zhi believes that no one can detect this money stealing game at all, because it is a system from top to bottom working together to create a big fake account, and there are even officials from the Ministry of Accounts to help. .
The money was stolen seamlessly. Several departments worked together to cover it up. I believe that with the IQ of the senior Manchu officials, it would not have been discovered at all.
Stealing 60,000 yuan in ten days is just the beginning. Yang Zhi believes that as more and more petty officials join him, this game of poaching people from the Qing financial system will continue for a long time, unless This country has changed its color, otherwise no one can do anything to them.
Only today did Yang Zhi understand the benefits of being in the Qing Dynasty. It turns out that relying on your skills to crush those arrogant idiots is so interesting. As long as you act very submissive on the surface, kowtow beautifully, and show a little bit of your skills. . You can do very well here.
I believe that with Yang Zhi's ability, it is definitely not a fantasy to become a wealthy country.
"Only now does Yang Zhi realize that the first half of his life was in vain. What are you doing with the Kingdom of Heaven, what are you doing with Xiao Letian, it's all bullshit... I don't care if the world is unified or not, I have to ask for tens of millions. Wealth, billions of net worth, everything else is nonsense..."
Just when he was thinking wildly, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. He was so fast that he almost frightened the horse. The servant next to him quickly reached out and grabbed the horse's reins, and shouted repeatedly before he stabilized the horse. .
"Damn it, that blind guy who bumped into me... Oops! Well... Li Tuo, Brother Li? Why are you here? Look at your sweaty head, where are you going?"
It was Li Tuo who was galloping towards me on horseback. He turned over and dismounted panting, grabbed Yang Zhi's hand and whispered, "Master, follow me, I have something to ask you!"
"What are you doing? The palace called me urgently to summon me to the palace. If you have anything to say, why don't you go back to the house at night and tell me?" In the meantime, Li Tuo and Yang Zhi got into the locust tree forest on the roadside. The servant Guard the horses outside.
Li Tuo looked at the people around him and said nervously, "Brother Yang! The palace just received a telegram from Hong Kong. The brother from the Prime Minister's Office sent me a message in a riddle, saying that a big fisherman in Hong Kong sold Xiao Letian. He said that he sold a huge gold mountain!"
"My lord? Is there anything you need to do here? You have to tell me the truth so that I can give you some advice!"
Yang Zhi smiled. Of course he had a clear mind. How could it be possible that there was nothing to do with him? How could he go around him? Although Yang Zhi didn't know where the treasure island in the Pacific was, but as Yang Zhi, he definitely knew it. Islands are real.
And he also knew that there was more than one such treasure island, which was all prepared by Xiao Letian in advance for military refuge, as if it would be used for some big plans in the future.
The Fuso Bureau of the CIA is responsible for where the gold seized from Japan is located, and Ryoma Sakamoto is the head of the Fuso Bureau.
