I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 33 Disappointment

Ling Chu shook his head, "I don't know..."

Even if she knew what Manager Lu was asking, she wouldn't say it.

Before Ling Chu finished speaking, Manager Lu's face darkened, "Whose girl are you from? You are very brave. You dare to come here to entertain me, Lu."

Ling Chu twitched the corner of his mouth. Before she could finish her words, Manager Lu impatiently interrupted her.

Facing the anger of Manager Lu, Ling Chu was not afraid, "Please listen to me, Manager Lu. Although I don't know where Liu Dong's money is hidden, I can calculate it."

"How to calculate it?" Seeing that she looked serious and not joking, Manager Lu frowned.

 “I can use hexagrams to measure the approximate direction.”

Ling Chu knew exactly where the silver was hidden, but naturally she would not tell it directly.

 It is unheard of to search directly using hexagram techniques, and Guanshi Lu does not believe it.

This manager, Lu, had been out of the capital for business and had only returned in the past two days. He had not yet heard about the raids on the House of the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue.

But Hu Batian listened to Ling Chu's words, looked her over for a while, took a few steps closer to Manager Lu, and whispered, "Manager Lu, I heard that when the House of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance was raided, the stolen silver was Calculated using hexagram techniques.”

After listening to Hu Batian's words, Manager Lu thought for a moment and thought it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

“As long as the silver you find is enough to pay off Liu Dongluo’s debts, I will not embarrass his family.”

 The last thing you can find is the best. If you can't find it, then use Liu Dongluo's wife and daughter to pay off the debt.

“Well, when I find the money, I’ll ask Manager Lu to remember to keep his promise.”

After Ling Chu finished speaking, he raised his feet and left.

Ge Shi looked at Ling Chu helplessly. She didn't know why she asked for help from a girl she didn't know. She only knew that this girl gave her a sense of peace of mind.

 Her husband was ruthless, and although many people in the neighborhood had received her kindness, those people had a natural fear of Hu Batian.

This girl was the only one who behaved calmly and calmly from beginning to end, making her feel reliable for no reason.

But Ge Shi didn't expect that Miss Ling suddenly stopped after taking a few steps, which made her heart skip a beat.

Ling Chu found that Zhou Wu didn't follow him, so he turned around and said, "Aren't you looking for silver to get the reward? Why don't you leave?"

Zhou Wu was stunned. He didn't expect that Miss Ling would call him. Seeing that Manager Lu and Hu Batian didn't stop him, he hurriedly followed her.

The reason Ling Chu called Zhou Wu was because he wanted her to be his witness, so that when the money was found, Manager Lu and Hu Batian would worry about her taking advantage of others and search her body.

"Let them all go down and continue searching." Manager Lu didn't quite believe that Miss Ling could use hexagrams to calculate the silver.

Seeing that the person Hu Batian had asked to help with the search was standing nearby, he spoke to Hu Batian.

Hu Batian also had this intention, so he couldn't place all his hopes on Miss Na Ling.

 The more people look for it, the greater the hope of finding it.

The men were a little disappointed when they saw that Manager Lu only asked Miss Ling to look for the silver, thinking that they would not be able to get the silver reward.

Unexpectedly, they took a turn for the worse, and in order to get the silver reward, they searched even harder.

Zhou Wu followed Ling Chu for a while and frowned when he saw her heading straight to the Liu family's kitchen.

“Miss Ling, what are you doing in the kitchen?”

Lingchu glanced at him but didn't stop walking, "If you're thirsty, go to the kitchen to find some water first."

Zhou Wu was stunned for a while. He thought Miss Ling was going to find some money, but he didn't know that she was going to the kitchen to drink water.

 When it came to drinking water, Zhou Wu licked his lips subconsciously, and suddenly felt that his mouth was dry too.

 Forget it, we’ve come this far anyway, and he happens to be thirsty too. Let’s look for money after his thirst is quenched.

Seeing that Miss Ling was almost at the kitchen door, Zhou Wu quickly followed her in. Ling Chu entered the kitchen and did not go to drink water immediately. Instead, he looked around inside.

Zhou Wu didn't feel how thirsty he was at first, but when he saw the water tank in the kitchen, he felt that smoke was coming out of his throat.

Seeing that Miss Ling was looking through the wooden cabinet containing the dishes and chopsticks, he hesitated for a moment and then walked towards the water tank.

Seeing that the water in the tank was quite clean, he picked up the water ladle beside him, scooped up a ladle of water, and drank it.

Steward Lu thought that he had never seen the ability to use hexagrams to find things, so he became curious and followed him with the two boys around him.

Upon seeing this, Hu Batian quickly chased after him with his two followers.

Steward Na Lu and his people followed all the way to find it, but what they didn’t expect to see was Zhou Wu holding a water ladle and drinking enthusiastically.

Immediately frowned in displeasure, "Miss Ling, aren't you looking for money? What are you...

Ling Chu turned his head and said seriously, "I'm looking for it right now."

 Manager Lu looked suspicious, "Then why did you come to the kitchen?"

“Oh, I just calculated it using the hexagram. The direction shown by the hexagram is here in the kitchen.”

Zhou Wu stood aside stupidly with a water ladle in his hand. He had been following Miss Ling. How come he didn't know when she had her fortune telling?

Also, aren’t they coming to the kitchen to drink water because they are thirsty?

Even though he was confused, Zhou Wu wisely did not ask the question when he saw Manager Lu and Hu Batian standing next to him.

 Manager Lu and Hu Batian frowned and glanced around the kitchen suspiciously, but found nothing unusual.

Lingchu ignored them and rummaged around in the kitchen for a while, then suddenly pointed at a dark brown clay pot in the west corner and said to Zhou Wu, "Bring that big pot over here and take a look."

Zhou Wu followed her fingers and saw the clay pot. Without saying a word, he walked over and hugged it with both hands.

Guanshi Lu and Hu Batian stared closely at the big clay pot. They could not help but be disappointed when they saw that the open clay pot was filled with white grains of salt.

“Miss Ling, are your hexagram calculations accurate?”

Lingchu was silent when he saw the salt grains, and suddenly said to Zhou Wu, "Bring a big pot over here and pour out all the salt."

Zhou Wu was confused, not knowing what medicine was in Miss Ling's gourd, but seeing that Manager Lu and Hu Batian seemed unhappy, he could only swallow his doubts.

Manager Lu said impatiently, "Miss Ling, it's just a jar of salt. Liu Dongluo's family runs a restaurant, so it wouldn't be surprising if there was more salt, and it's not silver..."

The words in Steward Lu's mouth suddenly stopped when he saw that the salt in the clay pot was halfway poured.

The disbelieving eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

 Hu Batian and Zhou Wu also looked surprised.

Lingchu ignored them and poured out all the salt in the clay pot with quick movements.

With the sound of crashing, Hu Batian and the others' eyes became brighter and brighter.

Steward Lu reached out and pulled out a gold leaf from the salt pile, muttering to himself, "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that Liu Dongluo actually hid a gold leaf in the salt jar."

 Zhou Wu on the side couldn't help but blurt out, "Miss Ling, you are so powerful."

What Zhou Wu didn't expect was that as soon as he finished his words of admiration, he suddenly saw Miss Ling putting her hand on her abdomen and saying, "I'm so hungry... Hey, do you smell anything...?"
