A few of them nodded. Then, they heard the leader say, “Find her a prison carriage.”
The officers present were speechless. Boss, are you mad? What exactly is the reason for your thoughts to be so scattered and directly consider the prison carriage?
“Boss, the Shu family doesn’t need a prison carriage.”
“Yeah, and where are we going to get a prison carriage? The local government won’t give it to us either.”
“Boss, this is against the rules.”
The leading officer rubbed his head and said, “Then we don’t need a proper prison carriage. It’s just a token of our appreciation. We won’t go through the government. We’ll get it ourselves.”
Everyone’s expression became even more frightened. Could Boss have gone crazy too?
Sensing everyone’s gazes, the leader raised his hand and slapped them one by one. “What kind of expression is that? Can you hear me out?”
“Please speak.”
“I think that girl should still have money on her. I reckon that because the Dongan Province has other silver buried there, she probably won’t give us this silver. It’s not good for us to ask for more, right?”
Everyone nodded. Indeed, with the money from the Dongan Province, they naturally could not force him to do anything.
The leader of the officers continued, “But I’m not willing to give up. I don’t want to let go of this silver. I think she has quite a bit of silver on her, and she plans to use it when she reaches the southwest. We can use this opportunity to make her hand over the silver. Let’s use this money to buy a mule, a carriage, and a cage to confine people inside.”
Everyone looked at each other and began to ponder silently.
The leading officer said, “If anyone asks, just say that this girl’s leg is injured and her slow walking will affect the progress. That’s why her family bought her a mule carriage. It was not like no one had done such a thing before. Since we’re outside, some rules aren’t that strict. When we were almost in the southwest, we would put her down and walk. At that time, her emotions would have calmed down and she wouldn’t shout and kill for no reason, right? At that time, that mule carriage…It’s ours.”
The officers were shocked. “That’s not a bad idea.”
“Besides, we walk every day and are very tired. With the mule carriage, we can also take turns driving the cart and rest. All these things can be put on the mule cart.”
The more they talked, the more they felt that this idea was not bad. It did not take long for them to be convinced.
The leader said, “Then it’s decided. Let’s go and find Miss Shu San now and ask her to take out the silver to buy a car.”
After he finished speaking, he left. Another official immediately followed.
Standing at the door of Shu Yu’s room, they could still hear her cursing the Shu family angrily. “Just you wait, I’ll find a chance to kill you all.”
The two officers looked at each other and pushed the door open.
Shu Yu immediately sat up. In front of the officer, she does not like how she treated the Shu family. She was even a little afraid. She shrank back and asked, “You, what are you doing?”
The leader of the officers walked over and said expressionlessly, “What you did today put us in a difficult position.”
“I’m sorry. I won’t dare to do it again.”
The other officer looked at the biscuit on the ground. It was the biscuit that Shu Yu had s.n.a.t.c.hed from the Second Madam during dinner. It had been trampled to pieces.
Just like that, she still dared not to?
