The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife Chapter 2589 - 73: Recommendation Not to Hand Over Wealth

"Found it!" Ye Haoyang thought for a mont and said, "There are a lot of things inside, but I haven’t decided what to do with them yet?"

Ye Haoxuan, who understood him well, asked, "Are you thinking of turning those over?"

Ye Haoyang was silent for a mont.

Seeing this, Ye Haoxuan said, "I advise you not to do that."

"A person who wields significant power must show so flaws in the eyes of those above. If soone is too perfect, appearing without desire and yet caring for the world, those above will start to worry. Not loving money, beauty, not forming cliques... such a person is seen as more than human, a saint. Besides, you are so keen on maintaining your reputation that it makes people wonder whether you aspire to higher power... the ultimate power... To the average person, that is a sin. Moreover, historically, those who are greedy for money are considered more trustworthy than those who are greedy for power."

People who are greedy for money can be satisfied with wealth, but those who crave power might resort to rebellion in the end.

"Facing so much wealth, few would remain unmoved. Besides, the authorities are not aware of this matter yet. If you were to turn them in, it would arouse suspicion." Ye Haoxuan patted his shoulder, "Don’t do sothing so foolish."

"Exactly!" Ye Rongqing agreed, "Second Brother, you are aware of how those people above operate. Even if you hand everything over, they might think you only gave up a small portion and still have plenty left. This would draw unwanted attention and they might plot against you for the wealth."

"Yes, you’re right. I was just considering options, but after hearing you, I won’t submit them." After a pause, Ye Haoyang added, "However, that place can’t remain as it is; it needs to be relocated."

He recounted to Ye Haoxuan his encounter with the elderly man on the mountain.

"That man is likely soone the authorities sent to investigate the gold mine," Ye Haoxuan said. "According to you, the direction he went aligns with where the treasure is. In that case, he seems quite capable. If so, it’s best to move the items out quickly. If he reports his doubts to the authorities, and they investigate, it would be quite troubling."

"Yes, but my manpower is insufficient; I might need to borrow a few n from you, brother."

"That’s manageable," Ye Haoxuan waved his hand and smiled, "as long as you reward them afterward."

"Of course."

"Brother, the authorities are still looking for that Situ Er."

Ye Haoxuan chuckled, "Naturally, they have to. If they don’t, and the Situ Family blas them, they would be implicated."

Thinking about this, he spoke into the air, "Send a letter to Tu Niu, tell him to lay low for a few days, and have the brothers disperse for now to avoid being caught by the authorities. As for their gold, they should divide it; if not, hide it well. Otherwise, if the authorities seize it, I won’t compensate him."

"Yes!"

A gust of wind seed to blow, and soone left the room.

Ye Haoyang secretly thought his brother’s secret guards were well-trained!

"If we’re going to move what’s inside, additional preparation is needed; there’s poison there."

"Bring a doctor along, let him examine what kind of poison it is and prepare so antidotes." As Ye Haoxuan continued to pour him tea, he said, "Handle this matter quickly."

"Yes!"

Again at night, Ye Haoxuan left the Liu Residence quietly, following his subordinates to a small farr’s courtyard.
