However, something happened soon. This incident answered Sun and Wei's doubts and added some more questions. The incident happened on the seventh day after Sun Zhaoyang and Wei Meng sneaked into Hepei Wufu Tower in the names of Sun San and Wei Wu.

The day before that day, Wufu Tower suddenly became busy, and even the old fritters were dragged out to do some work. Several stewards and about 20 or 30 people were cleaning the elegant rooms in the other courtyard, decorating the banquet hall and guest rooms, and picking up and transporting goods. A large number of expensive ingredients and drinks were transported into the back kitchen, and even the back kitchen and warehouse could not be accommodated, and they were piled in the corner of the backyard. Sun Zhaoyang and Wei Meng learned from the spotted face that there was going to be a banquet. It turns out that Wufu Tower holds a banquet every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, and every time nearby dignitaries gather here and spend a lot of money at the banquet. This is the reason why this branch of Wufu Building is not open on weekdays, but it can still have a foothold in the most affluent neighborhood in Hepei.

This dinner party is mysterious and strange, but the most strange thing is not the banquet of Fulou's daughter, but the person who serves the banquet. Originally, Sun Zhaoyang and Wei Meng should have been the best candidates to serve the banquet in every aspect, based on their looks, temperament, abilities, and how highly they were used by the stewards. However, Steward Niu took away the crooked-faced ones. Old fried dough sticks. When several people were called away by Steward Niu, they turned to Sun and Wei with crooked faces.

After Crooked Face and the others went out, Banlian kicked out everyone else in the row house, leaving Sun Zhaoyang and Wei Meng alone. No way, Bian Lian is the most senior person in the entire backyard, and Sun and Wei, who are currently the most important, can't be dispatched. Everyone else has to listen to him.

Sun and Wei didn't notice anything wrong at first, until they saw the spotted-faced man starting to go through the packages of the banquet servants one by one.

"What are you doing"Wei Meng grabbed Ban Lian's hand and stopped him.

Sun Zhaoyang saw Ban Lian's unkind expression and wondered what he was doing. While trying to smooth things over, he asked:"Brother Ban Lian, what are you doing? What are you looking for? Just tell me and we will help you."

The spot-faced expression not only did not soften, but became even more ugly. He lowered his head and whispered softly:"……You made a crooked face, and here come two more hypocritical ones... Don't think I don't know what you are planning.……"

"What did you say?"

Ban Lian quickly broke away from Wei Meng's hand and stuffed the thing in his hand to Wei Meng."Here you go, go, go, don't get in the way.""As he said that, he quickly walked to the other side to pick up another person's package.

"you……"Wei Meng took the things Ban Lian forced on him, and looked at Ban Lian who was busy rummaging through boxes not far away, feeling confused.

Sun Zhaoyang grabbed his junior brother, took the thing from his hand and took a look, and found that the thing was actually a hairpin for women. The hairpin is made of ice silk flowers. The craftsmanship is very fine. You can see that ordinary women cannot afford to wear it. However, the handle of the hairpin with such a delicate hairpin is made of Asparagus bamboo. Not to mention polished, it looks like it was folded casually. I just picked up a piece of Asparagus bamboo and used it directly. It was extremely incompatible with the exquisite and gorgeous hairpin. Moreover, that crooked face is an old bachelor, and the prostitutes who usually don’t get on the stage ignore him. How can there be such exquisite women’s hair accessories?

"Brother, is this? Where did this come from? The spotted-faced man was burying his head in flipping through several people's packages, and replied without raising his head:"Who knows where he came from? He must have been left behind by some noble person, and that guy took advantage of him." If I give it to you, just keep it."After saying that, the spotted face raised his head, stared at Sun and Wei fiercely, lowered his voice and threatened:"I think that thing is worth a lot of money. Such a big benefit is cheap for you two boys. Don't even think about anything else. Think about it, I have to keep my mouth shut!"

"this……"When Wei Meng heard that this thing was actually stolen goods, she wanted to take the hairpin and throw it back into the crooked package.

Sun Zhaoyang pressed Wei Meng's hand, put the hairpin away, and said,"Crooked Face and the others will be back soon. What if we are found out after taking their things?" The spotted-faced man saw Sun Zhaoyang put the hairpin into his arms. When Zhong said this again, he felt that these two young people were fake, and said scornfully:"They will not come back. Every time the people who go to the banquet never come back. If I don't take it, others will take it. You guys will take it." Stop pretending, or get out of here."

Sun and Wei were shocked when they first heard the words"I won't come back." Then they saw that the spotted face suddenly became fierce, they exchanged a look, and left with fists in their hands.

There was a big banquet in the Wufu Building today. The stewards and guards in the building accompanied the guests to the west courtyard. The other servants were sent to kill the other servants. Even the thugs guarding the corridor bridge mostly went to the outside to fill in the guards. This was a good opportunity for the two of them to sneak into the building and look for the ledger.

The two of them walked out of the row house, walked to the hut, turned around and disappeared behind a tree, then flew out. The two thugs in front of the covered bridge were just ordinary people with a rough mind. They had never seen this kind of light skill, which was high and high and came and went without leaving a trace. Besides, they were already used to their leisurely lives, and they didn't pay attention to the appearance of these two people. The frail young man walked around the courtyard without noticing that one or two people were missing.

The two of them walked out of the backyard and walked up to the east building, stepping on the tiles.

Sun Zhaoyang and Wei Meng usually help with accounting and do some clerical work, and they are familiar with the accounting office. However, they both know that the accounts they do are all on the surface. There must be some truth in Wufulou. secret account, and it should be in this accounting room. Sun Zhaoyang and Wei Meng were good at Qinggong, and with the blessing of spiritual power, they could see clearly even without lighting a lamp. The two quietly broke the window bolt, pushed the window open and climbed in, entering the inner room of the accounting room where the supervisor usually stayed, and searched for him.

After a while, I heard a gentle"click". Wei Meng flipped a hook under the supervisor's desk, but heard something coming loose on the ground against the wall. Sun Zhaoyang immediately ducked over, saw that it was a secret door, and gave a"squeak" sound to Wei Meng. The two men gently opened the secret door on the floor, and there was a ladder going down below.

Sun Zhaoyang looked at the dark room below and said softly:"I'll go down and you can look out.""

"Brother, be careful."

Sun Zhaoyang nodded, patted Wei Meng's shoulder to reassure him, and then jumped off the escalator.

Below is a square inch of only one or two square meters, with no windows around, and half of the top is slanted, looking like an inverted staircase. It should be the darkroom vacated by using the space under the stairs downstairs. There are shelves on the three sides of the wall, and there are many books stacked on the shelves. Sun Zhaoyang took out the fluorite from his arms and looked at it. It was indeed all account books. They wanted The account books from the 10th to 15th years of Heguang were found among them.

Sun Zhaoyang leaned in front of the ladder, made a"squeak" sound and gestured towards it.
