Chapter 353 Account Books
The Tu family has been doing business in Nanhai for more than a hundred years. Unlike some aristocratic families, they do not have a morbid pursuit of land annexation and "farming and studying to pass on the family tradition". They have only bought some land and real estate on the outskirts of Huangjiang Prefecture near the sea.

The huge amount of money accumulated was stored in the warehouse, except for necessary items such as winning over officials, making friends with all kinds of people, purchasing shops, and building ships.

Therefore, the warehouse located on the east side of the mansion was also managed extremely strictly. There was not a single window on the four brick and stone walls. Six warehouse guards sat outside the only door, and there were two groups of four people who took turns patrolling with lanterns and hunting dogs.

From their body shape, breathing rate, and gait, it can be seen that these Ku Dings are all warriors, and each of them carries a flintlock rifle with the most advanced craftsmanship of this era.

The gangsters know martial arts, and no one can stop them. The masters are equipped with guns, and all the enemies are killed.

Warrior + gun, can play a 1+1>2 effect. Moreover, this is a modified version of the martial arts Ming Dynasty, there may be a magical setting [the warrior attaches his internal force to the projectile to increase the power of the gun].

Li Sheng thought about it for a moment, then crawled on the roof and drew a stroke with the balloon-shaped gray rain pen.

When she first arrived on the island, she used a small amount of liquid metal to forge a bronze invitation plate.

At this time, the copper plate placed on the shelf received the signal, melted silently, and turned into small gray rain, which climbed up the shelf with a "hey whoosh" sound. It listened carefully and confirmed that there was no one in the warehouse.

Then jump off the shelf and transmit the message back to the roof through the induction between the main body and the branch.

After confirming that there was no one below, Li Sheng took out the electronic pet egg, put Huiyu in it, then activated the familiar position exchange, swapped positions with the little Huiyu below, and appeared directly inside the warehouse.

Complete landing.

Li Sheng slowly stood up from the ground, released Huiyu, activated the [Assembly Puppet] special effect, and installed monocular night vision goggles on the eye sockets of her and himself.

"hiss"

Hui Yu held onto the monocular night vision goggles and looked around the huge warehouse. He couldn't help but take a breath, "Do you really have to be so exaggerated?"

After operating in the South China Sea for a hundred years, the shelves of the Tu family's treasure house are filled with various pearls, corals, tortoise shells, precious woods, calligraphy and paintings, and utensils salvaged from ancient shipwrecks. In the corner, there is also a large pile of silver oval spheres.

These things are called "Mei Nai He" and are essentially silver ingots.

Because of its heavy weight and oval shape, it is difficult to carry. Ordinary thieves cannot steal it at all and can only cry out "there is nothing they can do".

Hui Yu had seen the world after all. Just Li Sheng had spent more than 40,000 game coins to buy the [Star Forging Anvil], which was equivalent to enough cash to fill a small room.

However, the game coins are invisible and intangible. Every day, I sit in a store worth 40,000 game coins and use my phone to buy them.
It's completely different from the feeling of standing in the middle of a treasury, surrounded by shelves filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

"Huh, huh."

Huiyu's breathing unconsciously became heavier, and his hand involuntarily reached out for an orange conch pearl that was larger than a ping-pong ball.

"Little hands aren't very clean."

Li Sheng slapped Hui Yu's hand away and said helplessly, "Business is more important. Help me find the account books in the warehouse. There should be several thick piles of books put together. It shouldn't be hard to find."

"I didn't steal it, I picked it up."

Huiyu bit her lip reluctantly, and went through the boxes and cabinets with Li Sheng to search the warehouse list.

Soon the account book was found in a large box in the corner.

"Let me see"

Li Sheng took out a high-power battery, a handheld scanner, and a workstation computer, connected these devices to himself, and quickly browsed through the list of the past twenty or thirty years, ten pages at a glance.

The Tu family has been passed down for almost six or seven generations. From Old Lady Tu onwards, every generation has a genetic disease.

Through the catalog of medicinal materials purchased and distributed every month, we can know the specific names of the people in each room and what diseases they suffer from;

Through the money sent out from the palace, we can know the business scope of the Tu family and their social relationships with various people on the shore;

"suspicious,"

Li Sheng frowned and slowly put down the scanner. "100% or even 90% suspicious."

"What's wrong?" Hui Yu asked in confusion, playing with top-quality pearls of different colors in her hands - she was not allowed to pick them up, nor was she allowed to touch them. "There are too many suspicious points in the Tu family. Just looking at the wedding and funeral matters, all the women brought back from outside and the sons-in-law recruited in have a monthly lifelong settlement fee.

Every few years, they would send a boat to bring the daughter-in-law and son-in-law’s family from the mainland to the island, invite them to stay for a few days, and then send them back to relieve their homesickness.”

Li Sheng said: "It is equivalent to that every generation of daughters-in-law and sons-in-law of the Tu family, after coming here, are all kept on the island and cannot leave until they die."

"Keep him in captivity?" Hui Yu looked confused. "Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. From then on, you'll be separated from the secular world by high walls. Is the Tu family setting up a palace? Well, although their walls are indeed very high."

From the bird's-eye view of a high-altitude drone, the residential area allocated to the core members of the Tu family is indeed large enough, and the courtyard wall is extremely high.

"Not only that, this closed nature also extends to the servants of the Tu family. All servants are hired for life, and they intermarry with each other. They rarely recruit people from outside. The children of servants also go to private schools to study."

Li Sheng pointed to the monthly interest on the list and said, "After the Tu family members died of genetic diseases, their spouses would also die for various reasons within a few months to a year."

"The Tu family is hiding a secret, and all these arrangements are to cover up a shameful secret."

Hui Yu reacted, "Could it be that the story about the Dragon Palace is true? Do they really have dragon balls?"

"Hard to say."

Li Sheng shook his head and said, "From the perspective of the medicinal materials procurement project, the member of the Tu family's eldest branch who has not appeared may suffer from a serious skin disease.

The second branch of the Tu family, that is, the family of Tu Qiaohua and Tu Qiaoru who appeared at dinner today, may suffer from delirium and mania.

The third son of the Tu family, Tu Dongcong, may suffer from fertility problems.

The fourth branch of the Tu family, Tu Wangmo and his daughter Tu Wangjuan, who cosplay Yan Shuangying wearing sunglasses, may suffer from eye diseases.

The fifth branch of the Tu family had no known illness, but the people in this branch had a shorter life span than those in other branches, often not living past the age of thirty.

The strange thing is that they seemed to have accepted their fate a long time ago and did not even take the usual medicine to regulate their body. "

"."

Huiyu scratched his little head, thinking of the sudden rise to wealth, the isolated Tanka family, the high walls that concealed the scandal, and the strange genetic disease.

All these factors combined make it hard to see through.

Beep!

The watch on Li Sheng's hand vibrated. The high-altitude drone clearly saw a figure wearing a nightgown moving silently along the roof and approaching the warehouse.

"Sure enough, these gangsters are also going to take action tonight."

Having anticipated this, Li Sheng showed no panic and quickly put away all his equipment. Within a dozen breaths, he had put all the account books, boxes, and the conch pearls that Hui Yu had picked up back in their original places.

As for himself, he and Huiyu hid in the corner of the warehouse, hiding behind the shelves.

The new man in black was obviously prepared. He took out a metal tool similar to an oven clamp from his waist, clamped the heavy tile, lifted it steadily, and put it aside.

After repeating this several times, he took out a rough metal wire from his arms.

Under the influence of internal force, the metal wire was like a wire saw. With the sound of the wind covering it, it quickly sawed through the rafters and created a small skylight.

The man in black stretched his body for a while, performed the bone-shrinking technique, and slid smoothly through the skylight that only a child could pass through, and landed lightly on the ground.

Then, at first glance, I saw the round and flawless orange conch pearl that was larger than a ping-pong ball.

"I didn't steal it, I picked it up."

The man in black muttered this and put the conch pearl directly into his pocket.
