Watching Qingwen and Wangcai go to the penthouse to pack things, Jia Cong had time to look at the furnishings in the room carefully.
This sight really shocked him. Aunt Lai's room was really luxurious. The layout of the room was almost exactly the same as that of the old lady in the Jia family.
The tables, chairs and furniture in the room are all made of huanghuali wood, and all kinds of furnishings and hangings are all high-quality and genuine. It is so luxurious, no worse than the ones in the old lady's room. This slave's dignity is better than that of the master. Even bigger.
This Aunt Lai is also unlucky. If she hadn't offended Jia Cong, she could have continued to enjoy herself and even spent her old age peacefully. It's a pity that one wrong thought ruined the entire Lai family, but it was too late to regret it.
At this time, the other women and maids in the house had been controlled and locked in a room alone.
Jia Cong waved his little hand and said loudly: "First, search for all the valuable items such as gold, silver, and jewelry for me. Try to be careful not to damage them. These are all money."
Everyone agreed, rushed forward, and began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets, searching for money and treasures.
Grandma Lai's collection alone included five or six large boxes. In addition to clothes, other valuable things such as gold, silver, jewelry, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings were all displayed.
There are 130,000 taels of silver alone, more than 20,000 taels of silver notes, and other antiques, calligraphy and paintings. There are also about two hundred pieces of jewelry and other items.
Jia Cong called for the maid in charge of Grandma Lai again and wanted to ask if there were any secret rooms or other secrets.
Looking at the woman in front of him, she seemed to be fifteen or sixteen years old, quite pretty, and she stood in front of Jia Cong with an uneasy look on her face.
"Third Master, what are your orders when you come to this slave?"
Jia Cong nodded slightly and said: "You are Yan Hong, you must have seen that the Lai family is finished. Your fate is also in my hands. Whether the future will be good or bad depends entirely on your own performance. Now I want to know, are there any secret rooms or secret compartments in Grandma Lai’s house? Is there any place to hide belongings privately?”
Yan Hong's eyes flickered, and after hesitating for a while, she raised her head and glanced at Jia Cong before making up her mind and saying, "Third Master, I can tell you everything I know. I hope Third Master can protect me."
This Yan Hong can be favored by Aunt Lai, and she probably has some abilities. Judging from her current performance, she is also a smart person.
When I do business in the future, there will be too many places to employ people, but it is not easy to find truly capable people. It is good to have such a person, not to mention that the contract of sale is in my hands, so I am not afraid that she has other thoughts.
Jia Cong took a serious look at the girl, nodded and said: "There's no problem with that. I'm older now, and it's time for me to have my own business. If you're willing, you can be a manager by my side and help me take care of some things." industry."
Hearing this, Yan Hong had a hint of joy on her face and said respectfully: "Thank you, Third Master. I only know that Grandma Lai hid a box of gold under the bed, and there is a secret compartment inside the bed. I don't know what's in it. I just saw Grandma Lai open it by chance."
Jia Cong didn't expect it to exist. It's really hard to find this thing. It's almost impossible for non-professionals to find it. Fortunately, he asked Yan Hong to ask, otherwise he would have really lost a lot of money.
"Okay, you did a good job. Go and pack your things. You and Qingwen will come back with me later."
Seeing that Jia Cong kept his word, Yan Hong breathed a sigh of relief, finally let go of her worries, and bowed to Jia Cong.
"Yes, Third Master."
After Yan Hong finished speaking, she went to the side room and packed her things.
Jia Cong directed everyone to dig out the box under the bed. The box was only one foot square. When he opened it, he saw a gleaming golden light, filled with gold bars, neatly stacked in the box.
I asked someone to click on it and found that there were three thousand taels of gold, equivalent to about thirty thousand taels of silver. The ratio of gold to silver was about 1:10.
He is really rich. This place alone is close to 200,000 taels of silver. If you include furniture, antiques, and jewelry, it must be more than 200,000 taels of silver.
He is so rich, no wonder people say: "Kill people and set fire to gold belts, build bridges and pave roads without corpses." 'It really makes sense. I'll make a lot of money this time by searching the house, but it's a pity that it's not my own.
Although he is a little jealous, he can't hold it now. He can only use this to get something from Jia She that he needs most at the moment and that is not jealous.
As for wealth, I believe that after I have a foundation, I can earn back it quickly, even more than this. Jia Cong has this confidence.
By the way, there is a hidden compartment. This time Jia Cong climbed up on the bed in person. He fumbled and studied carefully for a while at the position Yan Hong mentioned, and then opened the hidden compartment.
The design of this hidden compartment is quite exquisite. You can also make one yourself in the future to store some of your valuables.
The space in the secret compartment is not large, and there are only five things stored in it, a mutton-fat jade pure vase, a celadon elephant head vase, an emerald jade horse, a bronze tripod, and a jade Ruyi handle.
Although Jia Cong didn't know much about these things, he could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary things. If they could be collected carefully by Grandma Lai, they must be good things.
Ask people to carefully put away these five treasures, and let Jia She see it for himself. This old guy is an antique player, so he must know his stuff.
At this time, Qingwen had already packed her things and came to the lobby with Wangcai. When she saw the gold and silver jewelry in the room, her mouth opened instantly, and her face was full of joy.
"Third Master, will these gold, silver and jewelry belong to us from now on?"
Seeing her like that, Jia Cong couldn't help but chuckle and said teasingly: "Qingwen, you are pretty, so don't think too much about it. This time I come forward, these things all belong to me, but neither does grandpa." We will be treated badly.”
Qingwen was embarrassed, so she snorted and turned away and ignored the person.
Jia Cong looked at the jewelry in front of him and picked out a jade bracelet, a gold bracelet, a pearl necklace, and a gold hairpin. He pulled Qingwen over and equipped her. Every girl doesn't like jewelry.
Qingwen touched the bracelet on her hand and the necklace around her neck, as if she was in a dream. This happiness came too quickly.
"Third Master, did you give all of these to me?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Well, I've given it to you. I can still take charge of a few pieces of jewelry."
Qingwen said happily: "Thank you, Third Master."
"You also know Yan Hong. She has made a great contribution today. I promised her to follow us. She went to pack her things. When she comes later, let her wait here while I go to other places to take a look."
Jia Cong saw that everything had been sorted here, so he left five people to guard here, and asked Qingwen and Wangcai to stay and take care of them. He took the remaining four people to Lai Da's yard.
