Chu Huan thoughtfully and asked softly: "Since the Lu family is involved with the Huang family and the Huang family rebelled, will the Lu family also be involved?" He touched his chin and said: "Since the Lu family manages grain, the family must have stored grains like a mountain. If all the grains are filled into the warehouse of the Ministry of Revenue, the problem of tight food in our Ministry of Revenue will be greatly solved!"

Lang Wuxu shook his head and said, "Although the Lu family once made a fuss for tigers, it is probably difficult to get involved. On the ground of Anyi, the Huang family is the leader of the leader, and the Lu family has also made the second deal. Although the Lu family has surrendered to the Huang family, they are afraid that they have never been convinced. Now that the Huang family has fallen, the Lu family is the leader of the wealthy family in Anyi. If even the Lu family is involved, the entire Anyi will be in chaos. Moreover, there are many large and small families in Anyi who are attached to the Huang family. Among them, 80% of them are probably involved in the Huang family. If they are involved, the wealthy family in Anyi will be killed...!" Fuxu said, "If the Huang family falls, and Anyi will naturally be in chaos for a while. The court will rely on the large families of the Lu family and the other major families, and they should not kill."

Chu Huan said "Oh" and asked, "Have the imperial court sent people to Anyi?"

Lang Wuxu shook his head, "It's really not clear. Logically speaking, such a big thing happened in the capital, and on Anyi, the emperor would naturally send someone to arrest the Huang clan. It is inevitable that he would confiscate the property. However, the court has not sent people from our Ministry of Revenue to Anyi, and it is naturally impossible to confiscate the house without our Ministry of Revenue...!" He also showed a suspicious expression on his face, "I really don't know what the situation in Anyi is now. Lord Chu, if you want to know, I will ask back."

Chu Huan waved his hand and smiled, "I'm just asking casually."

Lang Wuxu smiled, came closer, and lowered his voice, "But the past two days, our lords are very happy. A while ago, we were worried about money and food. Now the Huang family is treason. This time, there will be many items to be included in the search of the house. If all the Huang family's Taoist property in Anyi is confiscated and included in the Ministry of Revenue, our lords will probably never worry about money and food again in the past or two years."

Chu Huan said: "Can the Huang family's wealth last for one or two years?"

"I'm afraid there will be more," Lang Wuxu said: "In recent years, the biggest expenditure of the Ministry of Revenue is mainly to build the Tongtian Hall. Now that the Tongtian Hall has been completed, the court no longer has to spend money on it, and it will save a lot of expenses every year. The Huang family's wealth is astronomical, and there are many officials involved in this time, all of which are rich. They are all included in the Ministry of Revenue. Lord Chu, think about how much money and grain there is?"

Chu Huan nodded and said, "If that were the case, the master of the tribe would really not worry. With money and food, the war in the southeast would be much smoother, and the reconstruction of the northwest would be just around the corner."

Lang Wuxu picked up the teacup and tasted it. Chu Huan then asked, "By the way, Lord Lang, I have something to ask you for advice!"

Lang Wuxu hurriedly said, "Please speak with Master Chu!"

"I heard that Huang Ju has many shops on Jinyu Street? I don't know if it's true or false!"

"Yes, yes!" Lang Wuxu nodded hurriedly, "There are still quite a few, there should be more than a dozen!"

"All those shops have been sealed?"

Lang Wuxu smiled and said, "That is the most valuable shop in the Huang family in Beijing. Except for the Huang family's mansion, they went to those shops yesterday afternoon, and they have been sealed off." Lang Wuxu was not a stupid person after all, and he was very cunning. Chu Huan suddenly asked about the shops on Jinyu Street. He felt something was in his words and asked carefully: "Mr. Chu... are you interested in the shops on Jinyu Street?"

Chu Huan just smiled and didn't speak. He didn't speak, which was equivalent to acquiescence. Who knew that Lang Wuxu was excited and clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Chu has good eyesight. Every shop on Jinyu Street is making a fortune every day..." Feeling that he lost his composure, he lowered his voice and said, "What business does Lord Chu want to do?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Chu Huan knew that officials were operating behind the scenes, which was common in the Qin court. There were probably many shops running behind the scenes of Lang Wuxu's servants in front of him, and he did not hide them. "When the shop is put down, I will ask Lord Lang to discuss what business it is."

Lang Wuxu smiled and said, "You should serve me." He seemed very enthusiastic about this matter, "Mr. Chu, please wait for a moment, and I will check it out. Such a small matter is in my hands."

After Lang Wuxu left, he frowned and said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Chu, things are a little bad."

"Oh?" Chu Huan thought this kind of thing was the easiest little thing, so he couldn't help but frown and said, "Can the shop not be sealed yet?"

"It was sealed yesterday." Lang Wuxu sat down, "This is absolutely true, but... it was just that those shops were just sealed yesterday and were already taken away from the Ministry of Revenue!"

"So fast?" Chu Huan was a little surprised.

Lang Wuxu sighed, "That's all fat, no one wants to take a bite. I checked it. Huang Ju was in Jinyu Street, and there were eleven shops in total, and the decorations were all very beautiful. The decorations inside were not even dismantled. You can do business by just putting the shop down...!"

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Does Lord Lang know who was stripped away by them?"

Lang Wuxu sighed, "There are some merchants on the name, but there must be someone behind this..." After thinking about it, a strange look appeared in his eyes and he whispered: "Mr. Chu, it seems that if you want to get the shop on Jinyu Street, you have to ask Master Jun Tang for advice!"

Chu Huan pondered slightly, and a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He actually stood up and said, "Since that's the case, I really want to ask the master of the department."

"Not now." Lang Wuxu waved his hand and said, "Justice Minister Qiu Jungao came to our Ministry of Revenue Hospital in person and was talking to Mabutang, so that people would not disturb you!"

"Qu Jungao?" Chu Huan thought to myself that if I didn't look for you, you came to the door in person, and said with a smile: "I really want to look for this Qiubutang, but I didn't expect that he would come here."

Lang Wu thought humbly, what is there to find for King Yama, but it is inconvenient to say more.

Chu Huan came to the courtyard of the ministry. It was a coincidence that before he entered the door, he saw Ma Hong and Qiu Jungao talking and laughing. Chu Huan came to Beijing for a long time. Although he had never had any contact with Qiu Jungao, he had seen him. Ma Hong smiled with his face and his thin triangle eyes, and Qiu Jungao's pair of triangular eyes were also bright. While he was joking, he didn't see Chu Huan when he left the courtyard. Qiu Jungao almost hit Chu Huan. Fortunately, he stopped quickly. His temper was vicious and arrogant. He almost hit someone, but he got angry first and said coldly: "Which thing with no eyes blocks the door?" As soon as he saw Chu Huan, he immediately met, and his gloomy face immediately smiled a little, "Isn't this Zhongyong Uncle? Don't blame him for being rude and rude!" In an instant, he turned into a humble and polite person.

Chu Huan clasped his fists and said with a smile: "I almost ran into Qiubutang, but the official was rude."

"What are you talking about?" Qiu Jungao said intimately: "I have wanted to talk to Uncle Zhongyong for a long time, but I have been worried about disturbing Uncle Zhongyong. It is better to go to the day to choose a day. Uncle Zhongyong, I will be here at noon this time and have a simple meal together. What do you think?"

Chu Huan laughed and said, "Xiaoguan knows that Qiubutang is busy with official business recently, so how dare you disturb me." He seemed to suddenly think of something, and said, "Yes, Qiubutang, Xiaguan really has something to bother you, I don't know..."

Before Chu Huan finished speaking, Qiu Jungao had already patted his chest and said, "What's wrong with Uncle Zhongyong? Even if I can help, I will do my best. If I don't bother with these words, I won't mention them again in the future. If I say something like this, I will look down on me, Mr. Qiu."

"In fact, it's just a small matter." Chu Huan sighed: "Two days ago, a villager came to me. He had a friend who was doing business in the capital. The two of them often communicated, but now more than half a year has passed, his friend in Beijing has no information. He came to Beijing to search and found that the shop had changed hands... According to inquiries, the friend seemed to have been invited by several officials from the Ministry of Justice to have tea, but he has never seen any trace since then...!"

"Oh?" Qiu Jungao asked immediately, "What's that person's name?"

"Shen Wansi!"

"Shen Wansi?" Qiu Jungao thought for a while and finally said, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhongyong, I will send someone to check Shen Wansi's whereabouts. If there is his whereabouts, I will notify Uncle Zhongyong as soon as possible."

Chu Huan bowed and smiled, "I'll trouble Qiubutang like this."

"Look." Qiu Jungao pretended to be unhappy, "I just said this. Don't say such disgusting words. Uncle Zhongyong, if you say such kind words, I'm really angry!"

Chu Huan laughed loudly, and Qiu Jungao also laughed loudly. Ma Hong was there, smiling and not laughing. When Qiu Jungao said goodbye, Ma Hong then smiled and said, "Sir Chu, since Qiu Butang agreed, that Shen Wansi will definitely appear within three days, so you don't have to worry too much." Everyone knew that Shen Wansi must be in the Ministry of Justice's prison now. Chu Huan said this to let Qiu Jungao find an opportunity and reason to release him.

Chu Huan looked at Ma Hong and smiled and said, "Mr. Master, the lower lord, have something to ask you for advice!"

"oh?"

"I heard that Huang Ju had more than a dozen shops on Jinyu Street were sealed. I wonder if this is the case?"

"This is indeed the case." Ma Hong nodded and said, "Huang Ju rebelled, and the entire Huang clan should be punished for his crimes. The emperor also issued an order to search all their property. Qiu Butang came here for this matter." He smiled and said, "This kind of thing is too exhausted, so Lord Chu did not let him go. I sent the head of the Cang Ministry to be responsible for the family search."

Chu Huan nodded with a smile and said straight to the point: "I heard that all the shops are going to be included. It just so happened that Xiaguan had a friend who also wanted to do some business in the capital. He asked Xiaguan to buy two shops on Jinyu Street, but he didn't know what procedures should be done?"

Ma Hong frowned and said, "Mr. Chu, you should have said this earlier. The Huang family is a shop on Jinyu Street. All of them have been sold away. Even the money has been put into the warehouse...!"

"Take off?" Chu Huan pretended not to know, "Didn't it say that it was sealed off yesterday, why was it stripped off so quickly?"

Ma Hong sighed: "Mr. Chu, you don't know that every storefront on Jinyu Street is a golden storefront. Doing business on Jinyu Street will make money or lose money. Who wouldn't want to buy the storefront there? There are so many wealthy merchants in this capital, and they are all smart people. After Huang Ju rebelled, they all knew that the Huang family's storefront must have been circulated. Someone has been staring at Jinyu Street for a long time. Just confiscated yesterday, and they all came to rush to buy the store. Now the war in the southeast is tight, and the northwest is also turbulent. The place where the Ministry of Revenue spends money is too big. If it is not in charge, it is difficult to be the head of the company. At this time, everything else is false. The silver is real. They take out the silver and the store will be sold to them."

Chu Huan laughed and said, "It's good. I heard that every storefront in Jinyu Street is a golden storefront. After a storefront is sold, it will cost at least a few thousand taels of silver. So many merchants are competing for it. If an auction can be held, it will probably add a lot of investment to the Ministry of Revenue."

"Auction?" Ma Hong was stunned, a little suspicious.

Chu Huan waved his hand and smiled, "It's the official who is wrong. But so many businesses are competing for storefronts, and it should be no problem for this store to have two or three thousand taels of silver!" He looked like asking for advice, "Mr. Master, I wonder how much silver we have sold each storefront when we sell it out?"

Ma Hong frowned and his face suddenly looked ugly.

Seeing that Ma Hong's face was not good, Chu Huan asked with concern: "Master Budang, you have a bad face, but you have been overworking recently, so you have to take care of yourself!"

Ma Hong forced a smile and said, "I don't know much about how much money I have."

"The official is going to take a look right away." Chu Huan laughed and said, "I don't trust the officials below, but the masters of the ministry don't know how much money they have been sold. It's really damn if you have done it poorly. Masters of the ministry, you should rest first, I'll check it first to see how many inputs there are, and wait until it is clear, and then report it to the master."

He bowed his hand, turned around and left, muttering, "On average, a store should have 2,500 taels of silver. 11 stores, that's about 30,000 taels. Well, plus the things that were copied from it, there are quite a few. Five or sixty thousand taels of silver are naturally indispensable...!"

Although his voice was not loud, it was enough for Ma Hong to hear it. When Ma Hong heard his muttering, his face looked even more ugly, and his eyes twitched. Seeing that Chu Huan had walked more than ten steps away, Ma Hong finally gritted his teeth and raised his hand and said, "Sir Chu, wait!"

Chu Huan stopped, turned around, and asked, "What are the instructions of sir?"

Ma Hong's ugly face had already smiled, and he went over to pull Chu Huan's arm and said kindly: "Mr. Chu, although you and I are in the same courtyard, we really haven't tasted tea together alone. Come on, I have good tea here, so Lord Chu must try it!"

Chu Huan immediately said: "You are polite to the master of the Ministry. This tea tastes time and official duties are important. Why not wait until the officials go to check the number and report to the master of the Ministry, and ask the master to give him a cup of tea?"

Ma Hong smiled and said, "You can't run away even if you can't hurry up. Come and talk first." As if Chu Huan ran away, he pulled Chu Huan into the courtyard of the ministry.
