Chapter 1562: Find A Place
The coachman of the carriage was like their guide. He brought both of them to the East side of the city.
At the entrance of the East City, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan alighted from the carriage. Xue Yan paid the coachman before the two of them carried on with their journey.
It was getting late.
After walking a few steps, he saw a large signboard in front of him with the words Treasure Bank written on it. From time to time, people would enter and exit the bank.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not in a hurry to enter Treasure Bank. Instead, they observed the surroundings of Treasure Bank. It seemed that there was a small alley next to Treasure Bank, so they looked at each other.
They were planning to exchange for 50,000 pieces of silver. Ten pieces of silver were equivalent to one gold. In other words, that amount would give them 5,000 pieces of gold. Just putting it in the space had taken several wooden boxes. They couldn’t just take it out of the space on the street in front of the pedestrians, nor could they take it out of the space in front of the people from the bank. They had to find a place to take them out.
They both quietly agreed that the alley was the first place they planned to take out the gold.
They hadn’t even entered the bank yet. Of course, they weren’t in a hurry to take out the gold and put it in the alley. Otherwise, when they entered the bank and someone passed by the alley and saw them, the gold would be gone!
Jiang Yue lowered her voice and said, “I’ll take out a gold bar later and ask the bank what they can offer to us first. If we agree, I’ll come out first and take out the gold from the space in the alley. After a while, we can ask the people from the bank to come to the alley before moving the gold into the bank.”
“Okay.” Xue Yan nodded, having no objections.
“We have such a large amount of gold, and we aren’t locals here. I think the bank will definitely pay attention to us. Our missing person notice has the words Xue family on it. It will be posted in town tomorrow to prevent the people of the bank from connecting us with the Xue family of Stone Village. You’d better not say your surname is Xue. If the people of the bank ask what our surname is, you can say your surname is Xuanyuan and I’m your wife. There’s no need to say my surname.”
“That makes sense.” Xue Yan nodded again.
Then, the two of them walked to the entrance of Treasure Bank.
When she reached the door, Jiang Yue had a gold bar under her sleeve. It was taken out from her space.
No matter which bank they were from, they were all very discerning. When they saw Jiang Yue and Xue Yan dressed in noble clothes and had extraordinary auras, someone immediately came out with a smile and invited them in.
In front of the counter of the bank, a few workers were exchanging silver notes for people. The shopkeeper was also behind the counter. When the shopkeeper saw Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, he immediately walked out from behind the counter and invited Jiang Yue and Xue Yan to sit at the side. He also asked someone to serve him good tea.
“May I ask your name, Sir?” The shopkeeper asked with a smile.
“You may address me as Xuanyuan, this is my wife.” Xue Yan smiled.
“Hello Sir Xuanyuan.” The shopkeeper hurriedly smiled. Then, he quickly greeted Jiang Yue, “Hello, Madam. May I know the purpose of your visit?”
“We want to exchange for some banknotes and silver,” said Jiang Yue. As she spoke, she took out the gold bar from her sleeve and placed it on the table. “Do you want to exchange gold like this?”
Although there was only one gold bar, it was enough to make the shopkeeper smile. He felt that there must be more than one gold bar in front of the two people in front of him, so he was sure that he would win.
