"So what if it is, Big Brother? Aren't we all doing this for the sake of endless food?" Liu Ban said anxiously.
Guan Dahu shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with using up endless food. It's just that the situation has changed. Zhong Yibo is here, and so is that guy surnamed Yun. These people aren't easy to deal with. If even the slightest bit of information about the treasure gets out and they find out about it, tell me, with our strength, even if we get the treasure, do you think we'll be able to live to use it? "
When Zhong Yibo was mentioned, their fear was actually limited. After all, the Lu Family was a powerful family with complicated roots and connections. To the noble families, it was a colossus. But to the ignorant bumpkins, they might not have a deep understanding of the Lu Family's power.
But when Pang Xiao was mentioned, Guan Dahu was really afraid.
That was a fiend embryo! If they really touched his lungs, they wouldn't even know how they died. At that time, even if they got the treasure, they wouldn't be able to live to use it!
Just as Guan Dahu thought, when this topic was brought up, everyone fell silent. Even Liu Ban, who was the most straightforward among them, shuddered when he heard Pang Xiao's name.
Guan Dahu continued, "That guy surnamed Yun is the imperial envoy in charge of supervising the imperial mausoleum. Say, if the stone used to build the imperial mausoleum is stolen, what will he do? Won't he be labeled as incompetent? Will he be willing to take the blame? He'll definitely investigate to the end. When the time comes, we brothers won't be able to find a place to dispose of the stolen goods in a short time. What do you think we should do? "
Guan Dahu's description of the future was too terrifying. Liu Ban and the others all shivered.
"Big Brother, are you saying that we should just give up?"
"Give up? Since we know that we won't be able to keep our lives, there's no need for us to throw our lives away." Guan Dahu raised his eyebrows, and his hoarse voice carried a hint of interest. "However, I have thought of another way to make money. It can also allow us to live a good life for the rest of our lives. At the same time, we can also protect the secret of the treasure and prevent others from talking about it."
"What do you mean?" The others looked at Guan Dahu with shining eyes.
Guan Dahu smiled. "It's very simple. Boss Qiu is now coming to our place without any precaution. Their Four Links Shop is a big family with a big business. As long as we help her, we can extort as much as we want. Once we get what we want, we'll bring her to bed and kill her after we've had enough fun. Won't the secret never be exposed?
"Although the gains won't be as impressive as the treasures, brothers, think about it. This way, we won't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of our lives. At the very least, our lives won't be threatened, and we won't have to be hunted down by others."
These words seemed to have opened the door to a new world for Liu Ban and the others. Everyone felt a sense of relief.
"Big Brother, you're still the smart one!"
"That's right. Big Brother, what's wrong with your brain? How can you be so resourceful? Why can't I think of such a good idea?"
"We're all so stubborn. We're all trying to make a fortune. Why do we have to choose a way that will cost us our lives?"
The few of them excitedly whispered to each other and sketched out their beautiful future.
Guan Dahu saw that his idea was successfully accepted and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as the brothers were of one mind and didn't have any other thoughts midway, the matter wouldn't be easily exposed and it would be easy to handle. If they were the slightest bit unwilling and delayed his fortune, Guan Dahu wouldn't care if his hands were stained with the blood of others. Even if they were sworn brothers, they should be killed without delay.
The few of them excitedly discussed and imagined a beautiful future. No one noticed that a black shadow flashed by outside the window. Then, a black wind seemed to blow over the wall. Under the gloomy night, all movements and footsteps were covered by the sound of rain.

In the parlor of the prince's residence, Pang Xiao heard Jinghu Wei's report and was so angry that his face turned ashen. His large hand slammed fiercely on the square table. The square table couldn't bear the weight and broke a leg. It fell to the ground with a crash. The bowls and plates on the table were smashed to the ground, making a sharp sound of porcelain breaking.
"They dare! How dare they plot against This King's people! "
Qin Yining stroked his wildly beating chest and waved his hand at Jinghu Wei and Ji Yun who were already stunned.
The few of them hurriedly bowed and retreated.
Qin Yining walked in front of Pang Xiao and tugged at his sleeve. "Alright, don't bully us. Others have bad intentions, but you smashed our square table. Don't you think I'm at a disadvantage? "
Pang Xiao was still angry. He suddenly turned to look at Qin Yining, his phoenix eyes seemed to be burning with two clusters of flames.
"This is what you mean by safety? Nothing? Look at these rascals, what are they planning behind the scenes? If we don't take precautions, what will happen to you? Maybe the next time you meet them, you'll only be kidnapped! "
Qin Yining looked at Pang Xiao's furious appearance. His ears and nostrils were about to snort. He softened his voice and hugged Pang Xiao's waist, saying, "Alright, don't be angry. Didn't I successfully find out what they were up to? Moreover, we've been through so many dangers before. Which one of them didn't pass smoothly? I'm smart, I won't put myself in danger. "
If it was in the past, Qin Yining would have coaxed Pang Xiao in such a gentle manner. However, when Jinghu Wei replied just now, although he deliberately didn't use any obscenities, Pang Xiao understood how Guan Dahu and the others were going to treat Qin Yining.
In this world, only he could bully his darling. If anyone else had bad intentions, he would kill them!
"You're smart, but when have you ever made a risky move that I agreed to? Which one of them didn't involve some element of luck? No, Guan Dahu has eaten people before. That kind of person can't even be called a person. To say that he's crazy is an insult to the word crazy. You have to listen to me on this matter! In the future, you're not allowed to go out without my permission! "
After Pang Xiao shouted angrily, he pulled Qin Yining's hand and walked into the inner residence. Once they were on the walkway, he was afraid that the wind and rain would wet her skirt, so he simply picked her up and angrily strode towards the bedroom.
Qin Yining was restrained by his strong arms. He said helplessly, "Zhixi, you can't be so unreasonable. You're not allowing me to go out without your permission? Aren't you going to lock me up? I still have a lot of things to do! Moreover, I've already taken precautions against this matter. Nothing will happen. I didn't do it. Why do you have to lock me up! "
