ne to actually stand up.When the guards saw that someone dared to scold their county magistrate, they were surprised to find it was just a young girl. They rolled up their sleeves and prepared to beat...This place is also a cave. The entrance isn't deep, but there's a large stone blocking the opening outside. It's surrounded by waist-high weeds, making it very hidden.

As he quickly approached, Yang Lin was once again astonished.

At this moment, the guards are struggling to carry a large wooden chest out of the cave!

From the effort they were putting in, it could be seen that this crate was extremely heavy.

And outside the cave opening, they had already opened the chest that they had taken out before.

Inside, it was filled with a whole box of gleaming silver!

Upon seeing Yang Lin, the guards exclaimed excitedly, “Brother Lin, we found them! These must be the silver coins the bandits hid. There are plenty of chests inside!”

Yang Lin hurriedly led people into the cave.

The cave wasn't deep. After walking ten or so meters and taking a turn, you reached the end.

At the end of the stone wall, there were large wooden chests lined up.

Yang Lin counted, including those already taken out, a total of twelve mouths!

He went forward and randomly opened one of them. Inside, there was silver!

"That's great!"

Yang Lin let out a long sigh.

If we can't find this silver, it won't be a great loss, but it would be a pity nonetheless.

And now, finding this silver, the Black Wind Mountain battle will be perfect!

Immediately, Yang Lin led his men to carry all the boxes outside and opened them one by one, inspecting the contents.

These twelve chests, mostly filled with silver, contained some gold, jewelry, jade, antiques, emeralds, and pearls.

I guess these treasures must have been robbed by bandits.

At this moment, under the sunlight, the piles of gold and silver shine so brilliantly that even the guards' eyes are wide with astonishment.

We are all poor peasants. Don't even talk about seeing it, even in a dream, we wouldn't dare to have such an extravagant dream!

At this moment, everyone's eyes were shining, their gaze lingering on the overflowing gold and silver.

However, despite being dazzled by the gold and silver, everyone's eyes eventually focused on Yang Lin.

"Brother Lin, this silver..."

The little bodyguard had just opened his mouth when Kong Liang slapped him on the back of the head before he could finish his sentence.

What are you thinking about! These silver coins all belong to Brother Lin!

Kong Liang glared at the young man and then scanned the rest of the group. "We're all members of the security detail, and the security detail belongs to Brother Lin! Brother Lin pays us, but besides that, we can't have any ulterior motives! No matter how much we harvest, we must never forget our principles!"

The guards all shook their heads.

"No, no."

"Brother Lin has already been very good to us, why would we be greedy"

"I swear, I definitely haven't coveted this silver!"

"Liang Ge, rest assured, we all understand."

The young man who had just been slapped by Kong Liang also complained, "Liang Ge, you're wronging me! I didn't have any thoughts about the silver. With so much silver, how dare I even think about it I was just joking with Lin Ge, wanting to ask if we would get a bonus since he made so much money."

"Oh, is that so Well, that's good then."

Kong Liang's face turned red, he scratched his head and continued, "As for the bonus, when has Brother Lin ever treated us poorly We just joined the security team not long ago, we haven't accomplished much, and we already received a bonus once. So you kid, just put your heart at ease. Right, Brother Lin"

Kong Liang looked at Yang Lin.

The rest also looked at Yang Lin and giggled. Yang Lin also smiled: "As the old saying goes, wealth moves people's hearts! The ancients also said, shared hardships, shared prosperity is hard! So just now I was really worried that when you saw this silver, you would fight."

"Such a large sum of money, if mishandled, could easily lead to us turning against each other! That would be a terrible loss."

"But now I'm relieved. Since none of you object, I'll handle this silver."

Everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that they had no objections.

Yang Lin continued, "I'm not a greedy person. Money isn't about having a lot for me, as long as it's enough!"

"These silver coins were plundered from the people's hard-earned money by bandits. If I used this money for enjoyment, I would feel uneasy."

The bandits' loot, some of which was distributed and some squandered, left a remainder that, while seemingly substantial, would barely be enough to provide any real relief to the surrounding populace.

"As the saying goes, 'take from the people, use for the people', I intend to use this money to develop industries and employ more people. It is better to teach people to fish than to give them fish. Only when everyone has a stable and well-paying job can their lives get better and better!"

Upon hearing Yang Lin's words, even the members of the bodyguard squad couldn't help but feel invigorated.

"Listen to what Lin Ge is saying! That's what it means to have a big picture!"

Kǒng Liàng raised his thumb: "We only think about living a good life ourselves, but what Lín gē wants to do is to let everyone live a good life!"

In everyone's eyes, there was a glimmer of light, and the admiration for Yang Lin added a few more points.

Yang Lin also couldn't help but feel emotional.

They are so simple and kind. If they were in a previous life and encountered such a situation, it would be a miracle if their host could have survived!

Who cares if you benefit the people!

"As for this time, I remember everyone's contributions. After we return, I will reward you all. Each person will have a bonus!" Yang Lin announced.

The crowd cheered again.

Under normal circumstances, this silver would be confiscated by the government.

But everyone understands that what's called confiscation doesn't go into the Grand Yan treasury. Instead, it goes straight into the pockets of these petty officials in the county.

In Jianghe County, the Zhou and Zhao families were at the forefront!

So, unless Yang Lin is out of his mind, there's no way he would hand over this money.

"By the way, Liang Ge, you shouted "found it" before. Was it a little girl that you found" someone asked.

Hearing these three words from the little girl, Yang Lin and Kong Liang's faces changed instantly.

"What's wrong"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

"We found two skeletons! Right over there," Kong Liang pointed in that direction. "One of them, a child's wrist, has the red rope that Lin Ge talked about!"

When Kong Liang explained it like this, the rest of the people also became serious. It was a hot summer day, and they all felt a chill run down their spines.

Qin Shuang was stunned for a moment and said, "Perhaps this is the will of heaven!"

"How do you say that" Yang Lin asked.

"Brother Lin, think about it, if it weren't for that little girl, we wouldn't have been able to find the silver hidden by the bandits; and if it weren't for us, the people who were killed by the bandits, their revenge wouldn't have been avenged."

When Qin Shuang said this, the rest of the people also came to their senses.

Yes, the mountain is so big, and the cave is hidden deep in the woods. If they hadn't been looking for the little girl, they would never have stumbled upon it!

At this thought, everyone unconsciously shivered again.

Qin Shuang continued, "Perhaps we avenged them, and they are grateful to us, so they guided us and led us to this silver."

Yang Lin also sighed.

He doesn't believe in ghosts and spirits; he thinks that everything might just be his own illusion.

But he believes that all wrongdoing will eventually be punished, it just takes time.e county magistrate"Zhao Fu Gui stumbled, almost losing his balance. He widened his eyes in terror and stared at Yang Lin."We can't be reckless!"Yang Lin nodded and said the same thing: “Don't worry,...
