"Guilty?" Shen Cha shook her head gently, "Yes, but not all of them. He was so eager to sell the shop in his hand, probably because he wanted to do something." She looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "Have you found out? What did he do with the money later, or did he do anything unusual?"
"No." His Highness Prince Ning raised his head and thought for a moment, "He deposited the money from selling the shop in Changsheng Bank, and the boss behind Changsheng is..." He looked at Shen Haolin, "It's your master, you know that ,Right?"
Shen Haolin nodded slightly, "I know, the shopkeeper of the border bank is directly responsible to me, and will send the account books to the town government every month."
"No wonder!" Shen Cha raised his eyebrows slightly, "The shopkeeper in Jiaping Pass said that he received news from the capital that he wanted them to keep an eye on people who cashed large amounts of money at once. But they kept an eye on them. After months of waiting, I still haven't found such a person. This is..." She looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "Uncle, did you find out in advance?"
"It doesn't count as having been found out in advance. While Shopkeeper Weng was receiving Chi Er's master, he had already sent someone to notify Brother Qingruo. Although Chi Er didn't show up, the people around him and the people in the bank all looked familiar. After all, Changsheng is the oldest bank in Xijing, and anyone with a little money is willing to choose Changsheng."
"Moreover, the amount they deposited is relatively large, so they will naturally be more cautious." Qing Yuanhui nodded and looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "This money has not been touched, has it not been paid?"
"Well, they saved an integer. Let me think about it..." His Highness Prince Ning recalled, "It looked like a million taels of silver, and it was completely untouched."
"One million taels..." Shen Cha frowned slightly, "Hmm...all on the same banknote?"
"Larger banknotes are allowed." Bai Meng explained to Shen Cha, "However, if you want to cash this kind of banknote, you must notify the bank three days in advance to give them time to raise money. .”
"That's it, I understand." Shen Cha nodded and looked at Qing Yuanhui, "Eldest Master, have you asked how many shops Mr. Chi Er has sold and what business each shop does?"
"Ever since I knew that the shop I bought was Chi Er's, I began to investigate the shops he owned. After my inquiries, I found out that he owned eleven shops, including silk shops, teahouses, restaurants, calligraphy and painting shops, and gold and silver shops. Shop and so on, everything else is fine, the gold shop is the most profitable of all the shops, so it is very strange to abandon it like this."
"Who did the gold shop sell to?" Shen Cha looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "Is he a serious businessman?"
"A serious businessman, our famous Jin boss in Xijing City." His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "Actually, even if Chi Er is not sold now, he will sell it sooner or later. Although the gold shop is profitable, people in the capital still recognize wisdom. Jing." He looked at Shen Cha, "What did you think of?"
"This is very strange." Shen Haolin said, "He sold all the shops and held one million in his hand. For half a year, there was no movement at all. This... is too abnormal. Bar? "
"Commander..." Shen Cha turned to look at Bai Meng, "When the house was ransacked, was there such a large silver note in the gold and silver collection?"
"No."
"Are you sure?" Several people looked at each other and immediately felt that something was wrong.
"I'm pretty sure that if there is a banknote with such a large amount, I will definitely have an impression." Bai Meng nodded very firmly, "I really didn't see it, otherwise, I would search again, maybe We didn’t find the place where the banknotes were hidden?”
"Okay." Shen Haolin nodded, "But...it's very likely that the bank note is no longer in their hands."
"Haolin is right." His Highness Prince Ning agreed with Shen Haolin's statement, "It is very likely that the banknotes have been sent out. I guess they also knew that they would be targeted, so they did not use them rashly. , thinking that we would wait until we relaxed our guard before taking out the money. However, we didn’t expect that Chi Er’s brother would be implicated and let us follow the clues to find out the money. As long as they want to touch it, they will be beaten by us. Caught."
"That's right." Shen Cha nodded, "But, where did this money go? Who has that banknote in the end?" She looked at His Highness Prince Ning, "Has Changsheng's business not developed to the Jin Kingdom?" Going with the Liao Kingdom?"
"No." His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "There is no rush for this bank note. We can look for it slowly. As long as it is within our territory, it is impossible to find it. What you have to do now is to pry open Chi Er. He opened his mouth and asked him to tell the ownership and purpose of the banknote." He looked at the children in front of him and asked, "How are you doing? Are you confident?"
Several children looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
