Zhang Linpu and the other Jiangnan students who lost their money were yelling loudly, a middle-aged man wearing a triangular hat was trying to explain something to them, but they simply did not listen, they pulled the middle-aged man's arm and asked the boatman to compensate for the loss.
"The ship sailed all the way, it did not dock anywhere. So, I'm sure that the damn thief is still on the ship. Everyone, please have some time, we will organise people to search the cabins. The stolen money is not a small amount, even if the thief wanted to hide it, it would not be an easy task. Once we find the money, we can find the thief, right? At that time, we can give everyone an explanation. "
From one of the cabins, there was a squeal like a pig being slaughtered.
Li Muyang opened his eyes, after hearing the shouting outside, the first thing he did was to touch his crotch.
The manager of the ship is called Chen Tao, he gathered all the crew members and the first and second floor residents on the deck, and then organised a group of guards to enter each cabin one by one to search.
Unfortunately, to everyone's disappointment, after all the cabins were searched, there was not a large pile of gold coins in a hidden corner that everyone was looking forward to.
"I'm Li Muyang." Li Muyang said with a smile.
Nothing was found.
Chen Tao still refused, saying: "This can't be done, this can't be done. Besides, I can't make the decision — — When the third floor was booked by these distinguished guests, we promised that we would not disturb their rest."
The sky outside was still dark, the moon still had a faint shadow hanging on the horizon, but they were already woken up?
"Li Muyang is not a thing, he is a living person." Li Muyang said with a sincere smile: "Jiangnan city lord Yan Bolai is my uncle, the son of the city lord Yan Xiangma is my life and death brother — — Yan Xiangma is the most famous hedonistic young master in Jiangnan city, he can do any kind of bad things. So, please be careful young master. "
Li Muyang played a trick here. He thought, since these people all boarded the ship from Maple Forest Ferry, then most of them are Jiangnan people. Which Jiangnan people did not know the power of the City Lord Yan Bolai? Who in Jiangnan did not know the name of the wastrel Yan Xiangma?
"What are you yelling about?" An arrogant voice came from above.
As for Yan Xiangma — -Since he often said that he can do any kind of bad things, as his life and death brother and close friend, Li Muyang would not be stingy to make him famous.
"There's a thief on the ship, quickly report to the authorities — –"
Yan Bolai had just rushed over to see him off, these people on the ship should have seen it. No matter who they were, they should at least care about the City Lord's Mansion's face, right?
"Even if there's someone important on the third floor, are those servants and guards more important than us? Who can guarantee that there are no dirty hands among them? "
"Who is Li Muyang?"
As the crowd dispersed, Li Muyang, who had been following the crowd through cabin after cabin with a carefree expression, was pushed in front of Cui Zhaoren like he was the moon surrounded by stars.
As Li Muyang pushed open the door, the outside was already in a mess.
Everyone stared at Li Muyang and thought to themselves: why is this bastard first in the kingdom's exams?
"My one hundred and twenty — –"
"This time I was lucky to be first in the exam, the City Lord rewarded me with two thousand gold coins. Originally mother wanted me to bring half of it out, so I don't have to suffer outside. I don't think I need that much, so I only brought two hundred and ten. "Li Muyang explained. No matter what, he couldn't let anyone know that he had a small bag in his crotch. That was his life-saving measure.
"The thief must have hidden the gold coins — –"
Zhang Linpu, who was standing at the front, hurriedly moved away to show the group of black-clad men that he was not the one who spoke. This matter has nothing to do with him.
"Two hundred and ten gold coins were stolen." Li Muyang said aloud.
"What can we do without money? Do we have to wait for death at Tiandu? "
"Let's go up and have a look." A light voice sounded.
"So it's this idiot." Everyone thought to themselves.
Luo Chi divided the gold coins into several small portions and hid them in her clothes or some food and books, but unexpectedly they were all found. And the packages were left in the same place, as if no one had moved them at all.
----
"Gentlemen, gentlemen — – please listen to me, please listen to me." The man in the triangular hat kept bowing with his hands clasped in front and said: "Now that the ship has entered Fowl Crying Lake, it is the most dangerous and most likely place for thieves. Even if the thief stole your money, he will not get off the ship here. "
This voice pierced through the tranquility of the ship, causing countless guests to wake up from their sleep.
Zhang Linpu pointed to the staircase on the third floor and said: "Manager Chen, it seems the third floor has not been searched yet?"
----
"Yes, and my fifty gold coins — –"
It's a godly thief!
"Search. We must search. "Everyone shouted with a face full of grief and indignation. Although money is just a worldly possession, it is also a life-saving item. They had just left the house and all their belongings were stolen by thieves. Are they going to starve to death in Tiandu?
"Really?" Zhang Linpu did not believe it.
So, he closed his eyes and prepared to sleep for a while. This was the first time he left home, the first time he left his parents and family. Last night when he was lying in bed thinking about all kinds of things, he only slept for a short while in the second half of the night.
The gold coins hidden in the package were all gone.
Everyone was speechless, they did not expect Li Muyang to bring such a huge sum of money when he went out to study.
"That's right, when a prince breaks the law, he should be punished the same as a commoner. Why is the person living on the third floor superior to others? "
----
"You — –" Zhang Linpu still wanted to put up a strong front, but seeing the men in black pressing their hands on the hilt of their swords, their eyes were fierce and ready to pull out their swords at any time, the words that were on the tip of his tongue could not come out.
"What are you?" The corner of Cui Zhaoren's mouth curved up, he said rudely.
“----”
"No, our money was lost on the ship, the ship company has to pay for our losses — –"
"Yes, we just want to break in and take a look — –" The crowd was furious, one after another echoed.
Chen Tao anxiously waved his hand and said: "You can't search the third floor. The people on the third floor are important people, it's impossible for them to steal the meager money of you students. "
Fortunately, the gold coins and the treasury are still there.
The sound of the cabin door being pushed open was heard, the students with disheveled clothes were angrily shouting something.
Zhang Linpu thought this was reasonable, he loosened the collar of the ship's steward, turned around and looked at the students from the same hometown and asked: "What do you think?"
"Me too, my money bag is also gone — –"
All the scholars followed behind to supervise, and no one could fake it under everyone's eyes.
Zhang Linpu's Xiaoxin couldn't stand the filth anymore, she pointed at Chen Tao and shouted: "Steward Chen, what do you mean? The people upstairs are important people, we are grass roots and dust? Now the entire first and second floor including the crew cabin has been searched, we did not find the thief or the gold coins we lost, we obviously have to search the third floor — – "
Suddenly, he jumped up from the bed. He pulled out the luggage from under the cabin board and rummaged through it.
"Boatman, Boatman, quickly tell the person in charge to come over — –" Zhang Linpu tied his belt around his waist as he staggered out and shouted: "The one hundred gold coins in my bag were all stolen, hurry and find it for me. Otherwise — – otherwise we won't let you off. "
Cui Zhaoren, who was draped in a black cloak and accompanied by several subordinates of the Monitoring Division, appeared at the cabin door with an impatient look on his face. His beautiful dream was disturbed, it really was a depressing matter. He snorted coldly and said: "Your few hundred gold coins, we don't care about them at all. If you dare to slander us again, I'll slap your mouth — – get lost. "
"Then our money was stolen for nothing?" Zhang Linpu's face was filled with anger as he said: "If your ship company pays for all the money stolen from us, we won't search the third floor. Otherwise, even if it's the Emperor, we will still go up and take a look — – "
“----”
"Ah, my money bag — – My money bag is gone — –"
Zhang Linpu saw Li Muyang coming out of the cabin and asked: "Li Muyang, was your money stolen?"
