Chapter 107: Five Forms
After a thorough search, the harvest far exceeded expectations!
Drawing on his past experience of struggling at the bottom, Chen Qing was intimately familiar with the ways of hiding money.
He precisely pried open bedroom secret compartments, lifted up bed board interlayers... thick stacks of bank notes appeared before his eyes, totaling an enormous seven to eight hundred thousand taels!
This was undoubtedly the dirty money from the two men's embezzlement of fishing ground profit shares that hadn't yet been transferred or turned over to superiors.
And in the depths of Wang Hai's bedroom, in a secret interlayer contained within a cold jade box, Chen Qing found the greatest surprise of this trip.
A half-foot long section of lotus root, completely crystalline white like jade!
It emanated a warm and moist aura, with faint milky white halos flowing through the lotus holes, as if containing inner spiritual light.
Jade Marrow Lotus Root!
Chen Qing instantly recognized it. This was exactly one of the precious medicines recorded in miscellaneous texts that could gently enhance root bone!
