When Gu Yundong entered the storeroom, he realized that many people were registering the things in the storeroom. They were stunned when they saw her enter.
It was Mo Xulin who came in later and asked everyone to leave first. Only then did everyone leave the storeroom with a puzzled expression.
Mo Xulin said, “Miss Gu, take a look. What do you like?” As he spoke, he pointed at two large boxes not far away. “You can’t touch the things inside.”
Gu Yundong expressed that she understood. That was what the emperor wanted. She understood.
She walked forward. There was a lot of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy, and expensive jade artifacts in the warehouse of the Xin family. These things were all placed in large boxes that were piled up in the huge warehouse.
Gu Yundong’s eyes lit up when she walked closer. Her eyes were sparkling, and she wished she could throw herself at the glittering money.
The Xin family was simply too rich. They were simply… so rich that it made people want to scream.
Mo Xulin was so stingy that he only gave her a small box even though there were so many things.
Her contributions were only worth the price of a small box?
Gu Yundong turned around and glared at him.
Mo Xulin touched his nose and said uncomfortably, “Miss Gu, you know that the imperial court is in urgent need of money. Although this box is small, some things are worth a lot of money.”
As he spoke, he picked up a piece of calligraphy. “This is a masterpiece from the previous dynasty. It’s worth ten thousand taels.”
Then, he picked up another book. “This is the only book. Many scholars would die for it.”
Gu Yundong thought that Mo Xulin was indeed the leader of this group of people. His positioning was very precise. He knew that she knew how to draw, so he recommended calligraphy and painting. He knew that her brother was studying, so he recommended the only book.
She snorted twice, took the two items, and placed them in the small box in Xue Rong’shand.
Although the calligraphy was too long to be kept inside, it didn’t matter. It was the same outside.
Seeing this, Mo Xulin secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
He did not leave. He watched as Gu Yundong walked over one box after another.
She looked very carefully. Sometimes half of her body was in the box.
Mo Xulin stood at the back and could not see clearly. He did not know that when Gu Yundong was searching, she took the opportunity to… put the silver ingots into her interspace.
After finding two boxes, Gu Yundong placed a few jade pendants and accessories into a small box.
Mo Xulin glanced at it and the corner of his mouth twitched. Miss Gu really did not know what was valuable. Why did she choose jade pendants and jewelry?
Then, Gu Yundong chose agate jade and pearl jade.
She also saw two medical books that seemed to be very rare. Yes, she would bring them back to Shao Qingyuan.
The brush and inkstone looked very valuable. She would bring them back for Yunshu, Yuanzhi, and her father.
There was also a chessboard made of jade. It was simply extravagant.
There was a huge pile of things. Gu Yundong felt that anything that was rare enough could be stuffed into the small box. If it could not be stuffed, she would put it into her spatial storage when Mo Xulin was not paying attention.
After going through all the boxes, Gu Yundong finally rubbed her back and stood up.
She looked at the small box with satisfaction. ‘Yes, it’s full.’
Xue Rong looked at the things inside and did not know what to say.
When Mo Xulin realized that she did not find a single tael of silver, he could not help but look at her in a new light.
