"It turns out to be Mr. Xie." The leader hugged his fist.
Then he said: "It's not something strange, just some finer sand."
Although Xie Xian's mother's family, the Lu family, had nothing to do with the county magistrate, they were selling a large amount of illicit salt. If they were recognized and a commotion broke out, it would be difficult to deal with.
Then he avoided Xie Xian's gaze and walked up to those people: "Hurry up, load the carriage and set off overnight. We've already been delayed for a day."
Xie Xian is also here, just afraid that he will cause some damage.
This man has a lot on his mind.
I originally planned to rest for a night before leaving, but I saw this person was about to leave early.
"Sand? I think you think I'm a fool. This is the first time I've traveled thousands of miles to transport sand."
Xie Xian's tone became colder.
"It's just sand, a new type of sand. I don't know what it's used for. Mr. Xie is investigating a case. Do you want to break the casserole and get to the bottom of it?"
The leader was a rough man with a straightforward personality. He knew that Xie Xian was not easy to mess with, but he was not very afraid of him.
This is what the Sheriff wants, and Sichuan County is the Sheriff's territory.
"It's just curiosity. You don't have to be nervous." Xie Xian smiled helplessly.
When Meng Li and Lu Mu came back, they saw Xie Xian walking away, and the leader also had a bad luck look on his face.
I knew this guy named Xie was restless.
Today, more than four thousand taels of silver were collected, and Meng Li gave one hundred taels to everyone.
She is mainly in charge of the money in this family. She will buy whatever the family needs, and she will buy it as good as possible.
But the feeling of having money in your own hands and at your own disposal is completely different.
This was the first time that so many people had been posted, and everyone in the second room was surprised.
"Sister, what are you giving us so much money for? A few taels is enough for daily use." Meng Wu felt heavy even with the money.
I didn't pay attention to the face value just now and thought it was ten taels. When I took it over and looked at it, I realized it was one hundred taels.
Meng Ning also felt that it was too hot: "It is safe to have such a large amount of money in the public hands, in case it is lost accidentally."
"Sister, I don't want this money, I haven't used up the money yet." Meng Yao shook her head like a rattle.
Meng Li looked solemn: "Keep them all for me. I can't fully take care of your needs and preferences. It's easy for the two brothers to spend money on the girl they like. The younger sister will keep it for future dowry. When you grow up, it’s a big deal.”
"So, you can't just leave everything to me. Then I'll be very tired."
"No matter how much money I give you, you just keep it. I don't usually use it for my own personal use."
Meng Li said this, and the people in the second room had no choice but to accept it.
"I don't want to get married. I want to stay with my two brothers and eldest sister forever." Meng Yao pouted and said.
"Okay, okay, our family is rich, and my little sister can do whatever she wants." Meng Li smiled softly.
She was still afraid that her younger sister would be wronged when she got married. Although her younger sister would probably meet someone she liked and was very good to her in the future, she would marry someone. But when her younger sister said this, she would accommodate her younger sister so as not to let her younger sister get married. My sister feels insecure.
Meng Yao hugged Meng Li's arm, tilted her head, and leaned against it affectionately.
Lu Mu accepted the one hundred taels offered in person.
The night is getting darker.
Lu Mu now sleeps as close as possible to avoid touching Meng Li.
This situation has been going on for several days.
Sometimes when Meng Li had nightmares, she would reach out to hug her as she did before, but she would be in vain.
Tonight she leaned on the bed and sighed slightly.
When Lu Mu heard this voice, he felt an indescribable emotion in his heart. He turned to look at her and saw that she had made a big doll out of nowhere.
"Well, it's safe to sleep with this thing in your arms." Meng Li placed the doll between the two of them and put one foot on the doll's body.
Didn't he even let her touch the corners of his clothes? Well, she won't disturb him, so as not to annoy others.
Then Meng Li buried her head on the doll's room, closed her eyes and slept.
In a daze, it seemed that there was movement around me, but the last light in the room had not been extinguished.
Meng Li opened her eyes drowsily and saw the man who had gotten up at some point and stood in front of the window, facing the long dark night outside.
The room was very large. When the light reached the window, there was only a little residual light left. Coupled with the penetration of night, the man's whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of light ink, bringing coolness and isolation.
Meng Li looked at such a figure, and inexplicably felt a touch of distress.
"Lu Mu." Called him softly.
Lu Mu's fingers moved, but he didn't look back.
"Aren't you sleeping yet?"
"You go to bed first." The man's voice was a little hoarse.
Meng Li knew that he was in a bad mood.
"If you have anything, you can tell me. Although there are some aspects that I can't touch, I am willing to contribute."
Meng Li was sincere, and Lu Mu really paid a lot for this family.
If it weren't for him, she didn't know when she would be able to come into contact with these people who came to transport salt. It would definitely be more risky to find other people.
"It's none of your business." Lu Mu said.
Meng Li seemed to have a vague feeling of anger when he heard these words.
"Okay, okay, it's none of my business. Then I'll go to sleep. I won't go to the mountains for the next half month. You can sleep anytime."
Meng Li turned her back on the man and pulled off the quilt. Sleeping was her top priority and she ignored other things.
Lu Mu looked at the big doll, as tall as a person, lying between the two of them.
The more he looked, the more dazzling he felt.
When Meng Li was about to fall asleep, she vaguely seemed to hear the space steward making an announcement.
Like, if the space is upgraded to another five levels, Meng Li thinks there may be a bug in the housekeeper, and now that there is no sales, where will the money come from to upgrade?
Lu Mu didn't know how long he stood there before finally returning to bed.
The last light went out.
He closed his eyes, but his mind was very clear.
This doll is like a thousand mountains that lie between them, making it difficult to overstep.
Lu Mu's hand silently grasped the doll's furry hand and slowly tightened it.
He wanted to tear this thing apart.
After the lights in the last room went out, a figure sneaked into the warehouse.
The salt had been removed long ago, and the house was empty. The guards responsible for carrying it had also cleaned the floor, leaving nothing behind.
Tonight it was dark and windy, with no moonlight at all. This man lit the fire.
So many things will definitely leave clues.
The light of the fire passes through every piece of ground and every corner without any mistakes.
At this time, Lu Mu slowly opened his eyes.
Those eyes were bottomless than the night.
The man found two warehouses and entered the third one.
The man's handsome eyebrows had a hint of coolness.
If what he was selling was something shady, and Lu Mu was involved, it would be an excellent opportunity for him.
But as he searched, his brows gradually furrowed, and he was afraid that he would find nothing tonight.
After walking for most of the time, he finally saw white dots of light flashing on the ground.
