After being reborn with Sister Zha, I was stunned!

The ship has carved beams and painted buildings, and looks very luxurious and eye-catching.

On the deck, an old man in a brocade robe looked around, stroked his beard, and praised loudly: "Not bad, not bad, the scenery here is really picturesque, it's a good place."

After saying this, he turned around and told the boatman: "Just dock the boat here."

As soon as the boat reached the shore and stopped, several gorgeously dressed women came off the boat laughing and joking.

These women all had picturesque features and graceful figures. The gold hairpins on their heads and jade bracelets on their wrists sparkled brightly under the sunlight, attracting the attention of everyone by the lake.

"Wow, this ship is really majestic. I wonder who is on it?" someone asked curiously.

Someone answered, "Who are they? Look at these women, all of them are making faces and smiling at the old man on the boat. Needless to say, they must be a rich man and his wives and concubines."

"Oh, he is already old, but still has so many wives and concubines. How much money must it cost?" someone else sighed.

"You don't know this, right? The old man on this boat is Mr. Wang, a famous wealthy businessman in Jinling. He is extremely wealthy. Have you heard of the famous Hongbao Silver Bank? It belongs to them! For a family like this, having a few wives and concubines is nothing. Even if they have dozens, that's not a problem."

The young man who spoke, who looked like a servant, was obviously an insider.

"Hey, how did you know this?" Seeing that the boy's words sounded so convincing, several people who were watching the fun came up to ask.

"To be honest, my master is also a businessman. He received a message a few days ago saying that Master Wang brought his wives and concubines out for fun, heading north along the canal. He has stopped at many places along the way and will arrive at Yu Lake in the next few days, so he sent me to keep an eye on the lake. I won't say any more, I have to hurry back to inform my master!"

The servant turned around and trotted away.

Everyone nodded their heads: "So he is a wealthy businessman, no wonder he is so extravagant."

Among the crowd, a few men with shifty eyes who looked like boatmen would steal glances at the people on the big boat from time to time.

At dusk, people on the lakeshore gradually dispersed, and the women who had got off the boat to go shopping and have fun returned to the big boat one after another.

The boat was brightly lit, with music and laughter ringing out.

In the darkness, several pairs of eyes were staring at the movements on the boat.

It was not until midnight that the boat finally became quiet and the candles gradually went out.

After another half hour, everyone on the ship seemed to have fallen asleep, and their eyes in the darkness became brighter and brighter.

Finally, the leader waved his hand, and dozens of people immediately appeared behind him.

"You guys, stand guard on the shore. If you find anyone running off the boat, catch them immediately and tie them up with ropes to block their mouths."

"You guys, take a small boat to the big ship and keep an eye on it to prevent anyone from jumping into the water and escaping."

"The rest of you, follow me aboard. Remember, use the incense first to prevent them from making noise and resisting. After we finish this job, we'll go and enjoy ourselves!"

"Yes, boss."

Several groups of people received orders and went to their respective positions.

The leader and more than twenty people quietly went onto the deck, but there was no one on the deck.

The leader was stunned.

This Mr. Wang is really brave.

Such a large ship was docked at the shore, but there was not even a single person on duty on the deck!

The group tiptoed into the cabin, and it was quiet inside, obviously everyone was asleep.

The leader was secretly delighted, as it seemed that today would be more successful than he had imagined.

He waved his hand again, signaling everyone to act separately.

Several of them took the incense and blew it gently a few times at the door of each room, then pushed the door open carefully.

However, when they walked into the room, they found that there was no one inside.

The leader frowned, a bad premonition coming to his mind.

He ordered people to check other rooms and found that they were also empty.

The leader came to his senses and said, "Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!"

He ordered everyone to retreat, but it was too late.

There was already a sound of fierce fighting outside.

The leader's face suddenly changed, and he led his men to rush out, but saw that his accomplices who stayed on the shore had been subdued by a group of soldiers holding torches.

"Retreat." The leader ordered his men.

When he retreated step by step to the deck, he whispered to everyone, "Jump down. Our brothers are on the boat below."

Everyone obeyed the leader's orders and jumped into the water.

There are so many officers and soldiers on the shore that it is difficult to escape, not to mention that there are brothers below. Even if there are not, the only way to escape at this moment is to escape from the water.

However, what they did not expect was that a huge fishing net had been laid around the ship at some point.

Everyone struggled desperately in the fishing net, unable to escape. The fishing net became tighter and tighter, and finally trapped everyone in the net...

Shen family.

Shen Zhinian and the old lady had someone dig up the floor of Mrs. Du's room overnight, but there was no trace of the thing.

"Where on earth would this damn Mrs. Du hide the things?" The old lady was so angry that she started cursing again.

"This room is so small, I don't believe we can't find it." Shen Zhinian said gritting his teeth as he looked at the mess in the room.

According to their speculation, Mrs. Du could only have hidden the things in her own room.

After all, who would leave a priceless treasure out of sight?

Wasn’t Mrs. Du’s five thousand taels of private money also hidden in her quilt, and was she sleeping on it every day?

"Keep looking. If there's nothing underground, look inside the walls and on the roof." Shen Zhinian ordered a few servants who were still digging.

"Yes, sir."

Reluctantly, a few people leveled the ground bit by bit, brought a ladder to the beam, and began to carefully check the roof.

However, on the roof, apart from finding two hibernating flower snakes, there was no palm-sized brocade box, nor any other hidden items.

Seeing that they still found nothing, the old lady and Shen Zhinian's faces became increasingly gloomy.

"Go, search the roof outside as well." Shen Zhinian ordered again.

Several servants who had not rested all night had to carry a ladder and climb onto the roof outside.

Fortunately, it was already daybreak, and the roof outside was still visible...

In prison.

The morning sun once again shone through the tall window, and Mrs. Du once again survived the difficult night.

The crazy woman next door left, and a witch who was said to have killed someone was locked up again.

The witch kept talking in a mysterious way, and she could sleep no matter how noisy the prison was during the day.

At night, he started mumbling like a spell.

Just keep nagging, and why do you have to nag at her?

How could she sleep?

Well, now it’s daybreak, she woke up and couldn’t fall asleep again, but that damn witch started snoring.

"Get up, don't sleep anymore!" Mrs. Du yelled irritably at the witch who was standing next to the fence.
