My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.

Old Wei looked at Xu Wuyan with disdain as soon as he saw him.

He took a sip of his drink and shook his head.

"Get lost, and hurry up, I don't want to see you."

Seeing him reminds him of all the trouble he's caused him, and he just wants to punch him.

Xu Wuyan, "..."

Is he really that annoying?

He shook his head and looked at Lao Wei with a serious expression:

"I came to ask you where we will be in three days? Where will we stay?"

Three days later?

Old Wei glanced at him. "You really believe what your wife said?"

snowstorm?

How could there possibly be a blizzard here?

If you continue walking for another month, and you say there will be a blizzard, he believes you.

But he didn't believe it about the area around Luyang City.

"I believe you." Xu Wuyan nodded.

He knew the news had reached Lao Wei, but he didn't explain much, his expression serious.

"My wife wouldn't joke about something like this."

So I'd like to know, where will we be in three days? Is there anywhere we can find shelter from the wind and snow?

Old Wei glanced at him, stuffed the cork into the wine flask, hung it back on his waist, and then took out a map from his pocket.

He squinted and looked through the faint firelight behind him.

"Three days later, we arrived at that mountain village."

There was no post station there, only a dilapidated warehouse that used to store grain.

But several nearby villages moved away for various reasons, and the area became deserted.

Later, the imperial court sent people to make some minor repairs, and it was used as a place for travelers to rest and stay.

After Lao Wei finished speaking, he put away the map.

Xu Wuyan frowned, finding the idea rather unreliable.

When was the last time you passed through that mountain village? What were the houses like then?

"Last time!" Old Wei thought for a moment:

"About two years ago, the roof seemed to be drafty everywhere."

Xu Wuyan, "..."

A house that leaks air from all sides, how dilapidated must it be?

And after two more years of weathering, they have no idea how dilapidated it is now.

If a blizzard really strikes, it's normal for several people to freeze to death in one night living in a house like this.

He shook his head, turned around, and walked into the house.

Old Wei raised an eyebrow. They're leaving already?

He shrugged, picked up the wine flask, and continued drinking.

In the dead of winter, a couple of sips of wine will warm you up.

Old Wei sipped his wine slowly, his eyes fixed on the distance, and no one knew what he was thinking.

When Xu Wuyan returned, Qin Mama and the other woman had already prepared the meal.

Lin Mo handed him a copy:

"You went to see Master Wei?"

Xu Wuyan nodded, "Yes, I asked where we'll be in three days."

The result wasn't ideal. A dilapidated house that let in drafts from all sides.

As soon as he mentioned it, Lin Mo immediately remembered.

She twitched her lips. "Air leaks everywhere? Mr. Wei flatters me."

That building has long since collapsed, hasn't it?

According to the timeline, in their past lives, it would have been tomorrow for them.

At that time, the blizzard had not yet arrived, and they were already freezing in that dilapidated house.

If we were to actually stay there to withstand the storm, we probably wouldn't even be able to light a fire. How would we possibly withstand a blizzard like that?

Xu Wuyan, "..."

Mr. Wei, you're misleading people.

Lin Mo shook her head. "Let's eat and go to bed early. There's no show to watch anyway."

Go to bed early and get plenty of rest. We can continue our journey tomorrow, and we can worry about this issue on the road.

A hint of regret flashed across Lin Mo's face.

It's such a shame we can't watch Su Weiming and his gang's good show.

Xu Wuyan was curious.

His wife's expression seemed to be one of regret.

What is she regretting?

……

It's quiet at night.

The wind was howling loudly in the north.

Wearing a thick cloak, Marquis Luyang glanced at Su Weiming, then turned to look in the direction of the warehouse:

"I'll get the people out of here in a bit. You need to lock the gate again before dawn, so no one notices anything amiss."

Su Weiming nodded, "Don't worry, I've already made arrangements."

I will transport it out by horse-drawn carriage tonight; no one will find out.

Marquis Luyang nodded, turned and walked in another direction, while his confidants walked towards the granary.

Seeing that the guards at the warehouse had been called away, Su Weiming immediately led his men toward the granary.

He lowered his voice:

"We need to finish this quickly, load all the grain onto the carts and haul it away. We need to be fast, understand?"

"Yes!"

……

The granaries of Luyang City were pushed open.

The men Su Weiming brought immediately rushed to the granary, picked up bags of grain, and headed out.

Outside the granary, horse-drawn carriages were already parked.

In the darkness, these people were like rats that couldn't stand the light, secretly transporting things onto the carriage.

Su Weiming was busy until dawn broke before he finally closed the door and left with his men.

As the last carriage drove away, Su Weiming's face lit up with joy.

It became.

May God bless the Su family.

Even if your house is burgled and everything is lost.

But once the grain is sold, it will bring him a continuous stream of wealth, and the Su family will not fall.

The servant of the Su family following behind him was painfully rubbing his shoulder.

"Don't you guys feel that tonight's bag of food is heavier than before?"

"Yes, I feel the same way. It really feels much heavier."

"I think so too."

……

"Shut up, everyone."

Su Weiming's face darkened. "I told you not to discuss this, but you all ignored me, didn't you?"

Everyone was startled and quickly lowered their heads, not daring to speak again.

Now, even if they have doubts, they dare not speak them aloud.

"Remember this, keep this to yourself. Don't discuss it, and don't mention it to anyone else." Su Weiming said coldly.

“You are all servants of the Su family. If anything happens to the Su family, I will deal with you first. Don’t forget about you, including your wives, children, and parents. Your indentures are in my hands, and I can control your life and death.”

Seeing the fear creeping onto their faces, Su Weiming was satisfied:

"Alright, as long as you work with me without worry, I won't treat you unfairly."

"walk home."

"You all worked hard last night, so I had someone prepare a big meal for you."

After saying that, he led his men toward his home.

But as soon as they arrived at their doorstep, they encountered Butler Su, who looked anxious and was rushing over.

Upon seeing Butler Su, Su Weiming frowned.

Why is he back?

Wasn't the plan to have him go along and transport all the grain to Qingzhou?

But before he could speak, Butler Su pulled him aside.

"Something has happened to the master."

A carriage was overloaded and overturned.

"But the bags in the truck were full of sand, not grain at all," Butler Su said anxiously.

"What?!" Su Weiming exclaimed in shock.

"This, this is impossible."

"This was all pulled from the granary, how could it be sand?"

"Master, it's really big." Butler Su's face was very grim.

"I initially suspected the same thing, thinking it was one of our people who had tampered with it. So I called out to the other carriages, went up, untied the bags to check, and then I discovered..."

"What are you stammering about at a time like this? Speak up!" Su Weiming urged.

Butler Su gritted his teeth and said, "Sand, it's all sand, not a single grain of food!"

The news startled Su Weiming so much that he staggered back a few steps.

It took him a while to recover.

With a trembling voice:

"Where are the carriages? Quick, take me to see them."

……

Su Weiming hurriedly left the city.

He went up to each carriage and took a look, and the more he looked, the colder his heart became.

Finally, my heart sank to the bottom.

At the same time, she remembered what the servants had said when she left.

A hint of hostility appeared on Su Weiming's face.

That damned Marquis of Luyang, he ruined himself.

"Come, follow me to the Marquis of Luyang's residence!"

……

When Su Weiming arrived at the Marquis of Luyang's residence, the Marquis of Luyang was having breakfast.

Seeing Su Weiming storm in angrily, and the people following behind him, Marquis Luyang looked puzzled:

"Brother Su, what is the meaning of bringing so many people to my residence?"

But soon, my heart skipped a beat.

He lowered his voice, "Don't tell me something happened at the grain depot."

Damn it, I hope we haven't been exposed so soon.

I should have known better than to be greedy. That wretched Su Weiming, how could he be so careless?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Su Weiming with reproachful eyes.

Su Weiming sneered:

"You're still afraid of something going wrong? Isn't all of this part of your plan?"

Marquis Luyang's face darkened, and he stared at Su Weiming with a serious expression:

"Su Weiming, what do you mean by that? What have I planned?"

"What do I mean?" Su Weiming was filled with rage.

He shoved Lu Yanghou away, "Are you still pretending with me?"

Marquis of Luyang, Li Mingzhi, let me tell you, your good deeds have been exposed.

You probably didn't expect things to come to light so quickly.

Su Weiming was filled with hatred.

Marquis Luyang was so ruthless, actually plotting against me like this.

Even if his own property is still intact, once these so-called grains are transported out of the territory of Luyang City, it will be discovered that they are filled with sand. He will then be unable to defend himself no matter what.

I'll have to compensate him for all the food, since he won't admit it and will only say that I'm trying to scam him.

Marquis Luyang staggered slightly as he was pushed.

After regaining his footing, his eyes flashed with displeasure. "Su Weiming, what's wrong with you here?"

"What's wrong with me?" Su Weiming roared angrily, throwing a punch at Marquis Luyang.

"You tricked me, and then you ask me what's wrong with me."

"It's all gone. I have nothing left!"

……

After taking that punch, the Marquis of Luyang was enraged when he saw him coming at him again.

No one in the entire city of Luyang dared to treat him like this.

Su Weiming dared to treat me like this; he's courting death.

He roared angrily:

"Guards, hold Su Weiming down and beat him severely."

As Lu Yanghou's men rushed towards Su Weiming, Su Weiming led his family to meet them.

The situation is completely out of control!
