"Master, there is nothing unusual here."

"Master! There is a box here." One of the guards handed a wooden box to Du Jiu. After a long and careful scrutiny Du Jiu thought it was just an ordinary box, then he opened it.

Glorious gold bars were neatly filed in a thick row, various gems scattered in the corners and in the gaps between the bars, the scorching brightness made Du Jiu blinked a few times.

"Mast... Master, they really buried treasures here." Du Jiu had never felt this absurd before. Jingting Mansion people were too idle?!

They had too much money and didn't know how to spend, so they came to the deep forest to bury treasures for fun?

Rong Xia looked at the box of gold and gems, at that moment he was so lost that his jade-like face looked dumbfounded.

"Master, they didn't lie. Maybe they were here by mistake....." Du Jiu thought about it, "Probably Ban Shizi has failed to bury the treasures because you ran into them last time, so they changed the place."

And unexpectedly ran into them again.
It was said that when the Grand Princess got married, her wedding procession was so grand 1 that it attracted the attention of the whole city.

With such a wealthy mother, it's not unexpected that Marquis Jingting also lived an extravagant life, but being too idle that they could run to the forest to bury treasures, this family was really a family of losers.

He heard in the Southern wealthy businessmen liked to show off by throwing gold and silver leaves into water at high tide, many commoners had drowned trying to fish out the leaves. Compared to those merchants, Marquis Jingting could be considered observing karma, his activity was victimless.

But no matter how he thought, he still couldn't understand the way of the nobility.

"Take it back," Rong Xia put his hands behind his back, "Since they said it's for the destined person, then I can also be considered the destined person."

Du Jiu glanced at the Count's expression, his expression turned complex when he was sure that Master wasn't joking,
"Master, it seems some other places have also been dug." The guard looked around, the stealth skill of the diggers was quite low, it's very obvious which spots had been stirred.

"No need to look again," Rong Xia took a gold bar out of the box, it was of very good quality, just one bar was enough to clothe and feed a commoner for ten years, "Clean it up, cover the dug up spots."

"Yes."

Rong Xia put the gold bar back into the wooden box, then he took the box from Du Jiu. It did not look big but quite heavy.

Looking at the Count who was in a very good mood, Du Jiu felt it was a bit dishonest, but when he thought about it again, Ban family's gold was waiting for the destined person anyway, and now that they were found by Master..... then Master was the destined person.

That's right, no problem here, their family Master wasn't shameless!

In Ban family's villa, the three members of Ban family were sitting on a round table drinking tea in large gulps.

"I was really scared to death just now," Ban Heng clutched his tea cup looking woeful, "Sister, you used my name to lie again."

"Sorry." She felt quite guilty for using her brother as the scapegoat every time. She put her palms together and looked at him apologetically, "I was very nervous and it was all I could think of. Please don't be angry with me, will you?"

"It's fine, forget it, I am known as a wastrel anyway, a bit more is nothing." Ban Heng was most afraid of his sister looking at him so pitifully like this, she just needed to give him one eyeful and he would lose his stand.
