There was an experienced young man who packed the food, and Cui Liu helped collect the money.

In less than half an hour, the cakes that might not be sold out in a whole day were sold out in an instant.

The people were not in a hurry to leave after buying the cakes. Some of them went straight to a small stall opposite the cake shop and waited quietly to eat the melons.

Some people are more direct and just wait outside the pastry shop with their bags of pastries to watch the show.

At this time, the three brothers of the Wang family, after receiving Wang Wanzhi's instructions

He also worked very hard and was unwilling to give up any clues during the search.

They first went to the inner room on the first floor where guests were received, and after searching, they found a locked cash box in a locked cabinet.

Wang Dashun didn't care about anything and just grabbed the money box and put it in his pocket.

After a thorough search to make sure there were no omissions, the three brothers rushed to the backyard where the shopkeeper usually rested.

The three brothers searched the cabinets, bedside tables, under the bed, and even the beams in the room, wherever they could think of to hide money.

He actually found the deed to the mansion that the waiter had just mentioned, as well as the indentures of more than ten servants.

The three brothers happily took the things they had found and presented them to Wang Wanzhi, "Miss, these are the things we just found."

Wang Wanzhi first took the land deed and the indenture and looked at them. The location of the house on the land deed was indeed in the east of the city, only two streets away from their house.

Afterwards, he flipped through a set of indentures and handed them to the captain of the guards, saying, "Take these indentures and go to the back to check the number of people."

The captain of the guards took the indenture, bowed and left.

After giving instructions to the captain of the guards, Wang Wanzhi signaled Wang Dashun to open the money box.

Wang Dashun didn't have the key, so just like last time, he opened the door with force and handed the money box to Cui Liu.

Cui Liu walked up to Wang Wanzhi holding the money box, and what caught her eyes was a pile of loose silver. Wang Wanzhi's expression became even colder when she saw this.

It would be fine if the shopkeeper earned it himself, but it was earned by the shopkeeper Wang as a debt collector.

Wang Wanzhi only felt a surge of anger accumulating in her heart.

She suppressed her anger for the moment and rummaged through the money box. There were a few banknotes underneath the silver.

Wang Wanzhi took it out and took a look. It turned out to be a silver note worth one hundred taels.

Looking at the money in this box, there are at least more than five hundred taels, so why is it that the profits recorded in the book are in the red every month?

This shopkeeper is really good at replacing one thing with another.

Wang Wanzhi put the banknotes back into the box and continued to ask Wang Dashun, "Have you found the other account books?"

Wang Dashun shook his head and said, "Miss, I've searched the entire shop and found no other account books!"

Song Zhi reminded him at the right moment, "Have you searched the beams and the bed frame?"

Wang Dashun nodded and said, "Miss, we have searched everywhere where we can hide things!"

Without finding the real account book, the whereabouts of the money will be unknown.

Wang Wanzhi frowned and pondered for a moment before deciding, "Get ready. We'll take everyone to Manager Wang's house!"

Just as Wang Wanzhi was giving her orders, the captain of the guards who had just gone to confirm the indentures came to report, "Miss, the eight people we arrested are all included in the indentures, and there are two others who are not!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Wanzhi reached out to take the two indentures and took a look. They were the indentures of an eight-year-old and a twelve-year-old child.

She handed the indenture to Cui Liu who was standing beside her, and then ordered, "Bring all the people here, and let's go meet the lady in charge!"

After saying that, the guards immediately took action, going to the backyard to pick up the people, and some of them stayed behind to escort the young lady out.

Even the young man who had been shrinking his neck and deliberately keeping a low profile was taken on the road.

The reason why Manager Wang bought this house in the east of the city was that it was close to Wang's residence and he could do things for his master at any time.

Another reason is that the house here is not far from the pastry shop.

Song Zhi and the little beggar who came to watch the fun walked at the front of the team. After walking for only half a quarter of an hour, they saw the new house of Manager Wang.

The monkey, who had eaten most of the sun-melon, pointed at the first house at the entrance of the alley with great interest and said to Song Zhi, "Good man, that's the house we've arrived at!"

At this time, two little beggars who had been squatting on the street and watching saw a large group of people walking towards them.

Looking again, he saw that the person in the lead was his own boss.

Big Head poked his companion and said, "Is that Brother Monkey?"

Xiaomi rubbed his eyes, confirmed that he saw it correctly, and nodded heavily, "Yes, that's right, I also saw Xiao Tao and Xiao Tou."

The two of them hurriedly stood up from the ground and trotted over to meet him.

When Monkey saw the two, he first introduced them to Song Zhi, then asked, "Is everyone inside home?"

"They're all here! Brother Monkey, why did you bring so many people here?"

This was not the time to explain, so he just pulled the two of them and said, "Come on, there's going to be something interesting to watch soon!"

Because there were people escorting behind the carriage, the carriage was not moving very fast.

Song Zhi looked back and saw that someone was following her, so she didn't linger any longer and walked towards the entrance of the alley.

As soon as Song Zhi walked into the Wang family's door, she heard a wailing voice, "Mother, mother, Xiao Shitou fell down on purpose and made me fall."

Then came a loud shout, "I'll beat you to death, you little bastard! How dare you let my son fall? I'll beat you to death!"

After saying that, he got angry and slapped the boy several times. The boy's mouth was bleeding, his eyes were full of stars, and he fell to the ground.

The shopkeeper's wife was still not satisfied. Seeing that he dared to hide, she directly ordered the maid beside her to bring the washing mallet by the wall.

He snatched it away and started beating the boy.

But he was blocked by the girl who came over. The girl screamed and begged for mercy, "Madam, madam, please forgive Xiao Niu. He is too small and can't support the young master. I didn't mean to make the young master fall!"

"I'll carry the young master on my back. I'll carry the young master on my back. Madam, please be merciful and spare the calf!"

Xiao Niu hugged his sister tightly and cried out in pain, "Don't hit my sister, don't hit my sister..."

The fat boy at the side saw the brother and sister huddled together in pain, and he seemed to find it very interesting. He clapped his hands and shouted happily, "Mother, hit him... hit him!"

When the shopkeeper's wife saw that her son was happy, she swung the mallet and was about to hit him again.

With a loud "bang", the door of his house was kicked open from the outside by Song Zhi.

The huge impact force caused the wooden door, which was not very strong to begin with, to shake twice and then fell to the ground with a "bang".

The monkey looked at Song Zhi in surprise, thinking that he had never expected that a kind person could be so strong that he could kick the door apart with just one kick.

Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance.
