Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Searching

"Forget about that extremely jealous second miss, no matter how much money she offers, I don’t want it," Yang Yu snorted. "Open the door, let me take a look..."

"Wait a moment," a middle-aged man, who bore a slight resemblance to Tong Lizhou, sneered, "Mr. Yang, right? Our Tong Family’s vault isn’t just open to anyone. If you manage to retrieve the Tear of the Sea God, we would indeed be grateful. But what if you can’t find it? Then what?"

"Interesting, still thinking about infighting at a time like this, your Tong Family really is united!" Yang Yu gave the middle-aged man a cold glance, "If I’m not mistaken, you must be Tong Lizhou’s younger brother, right? Don’t you just hope that the Tear of the Sea God remains lost so your brother faces ruin, and you can take his place as the heir?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" the middle-aged man was infuriated, "Dad, look at the person big brother has brought, all sharp-tongued, clearly no good at anything, just knows how to run his mouth..."

"Lipin, shut your mouth!" Mr. Tong Sr. barked, and Tong Lipin, not daring to defy his father, immediately closed his mouth.

Mr. Tong Sr. turned around, his gaze intense as he looked at Yang Yu, "Although Lipin’s intentions aren’t pure, his words aren’t without reason. Our Tong Family’s vault isn’t open to just anyone. If you can’t make a promise or show us a thing or two to prove your ability to retrieve the Tear of the Sea God, even if you can’t find it, I won’t allow you to enter our vault."

"Fine, then I won’t search," Yang Yu spread his hands, full of mockery, "It’s not my loss anyway. Your Tong Family, on the other hand, stands to lose not just US$120 billion but also your reputation in the market. Find it or not, it’s up to you."

Having said that, Yang Yu turned and walked away.

Tong Lizhou’s eyes nearly bulged out in desperation, "Dad, he’s the one who found the Tear of the Sea God in scraps, how can he be incompetent?"

"What? He is that young man who sold you the Tear of the Sea God?" Mr. Tong Sr. was also shocked, "Why didn’t you say so earlier! Brother Yang, wait a moment."

Mr. Tong Sr. immediately stopped Yang Yu, smiling widely, "I was blind earlier; please don’t hold it against this old man. I will let Brother Yang into the vault right now."

"Haha." Seeing Mr. Tong Sr.’s obsequious demeanor, Yang Yu couldn’t help but scoff twice, "You just offended me, and I’m not one to easily let go. I remember this. This is how it will be: I promise to help you retrieve the Tear of the Sea God, but besides letting Li’er come with me, you also need to pay me ten billion Xia Dollars as a fee."

The faces of the Tong Family members all twitched at once, but hearing that Yang Yu guaranteed the retrieval of the Tear of the Sea God, Mr. Tong Sr. did not hesitate to agree, "Alright, no problem."

Yang Yu said, "Good, either pay me now or sign a contract, to prevent any second thoughts."

Tong Family members: "......"

The contract was swiftly signed, Mr. Tong Sr. entered the vault’s code, then aligned his eye with a small hole on the vault, after which the vault door slowly began to open.

From the way the vault door opened, it must weigh at least three hundred pounds.

Yang Yu was more convinced that, with such a heavy door and no windows, the only way to steal something from inside it would be through this door.

Inside the Tong Family vault were many fine jade carvings and jade, priceless treasures, no wonder they did not allow outsiders in easily.

All these treasures put together were worth at least several hundred billion, what if outsiders saw them and harbored evil intentions?

"There are no cameras inside the vault, but there are five outside. We’ve checked them ourselves. After I placed the Tear of the Sea God inside, no one has been here since that day."

Tong Lizhou said, "Yesterday, when my dad came in and found the item missing, he locked the vault immediately, until now. We also had someone check the surveillance footage; there are no signs of tampering. Mr. Yang, where do you plan to start?"

Yang Yu countered with a question, "You didn’t put surveillance here because you are afraid the cameras might be hacked and the treasure hidden by the Tong Family would be discovered?"

Tong Lipin couldn’t help but curse, "If you’re here to search, just search! Why ask so many useless questions?"

"Since there’s nothing wrong with the surveillance, that means the item never left this place," Yang Yu said, not even glancing at Tong Lipin but staring straight at Mr. Tong Sr. and Tong Lizhou. "Unless, you two pocketed the item and walked out with it, then no one would have noticed."

"Absolutely not!" Tong father and son denied in unison, Tong Lizhou’s eyes even reddened in desperation, "I could swear to heaven..."

"Alright, alright, if swearing did any good, why would we need police?" Yang Yu huffed, "Since none of you took the item, that proves it’s indeed still in here."

Yang Yu walked around the safe, then stopped in front of one of the human-shaped Jade carvings to examine it closely.

Seeing Yang Yu standing still, Tong Lizhou couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Yang, what are you doing?"

Yang Yu asked casually, "This Jade carving is hollow, right?"

"Yes," Tong Lizhou answered. "What about it?"

"Lift it up," Yang Yu instructed. "You do it yourselves to avoid accidentally breaking it."

"Okay," Tong Lizhou immediately called over two juniors, "Xiao Qi, Xiao Hai, come over here."

The two Tong juniors carefully lifted the human-shaped Jade carving, and the Tear of the Sea God was suddenly there beneath the carving’s feet!

"Haha, found it, found it!" Mr. Tong Sr. immediately picked up the Tear of the Sea God, put it in a bag, and clutched it tightly, as if afraid of losing it again.

"My God, how did this happen?"

"It’s so miraculous, how was the Tear of the Sea God hidden under the Jade carving?"

Everyone looked shocked and curiously awaited Yang Yu’s explanation.

"Five Ghosts Transporting Wealth," Yang Yu explained. "It’s a kind of Evil Magic that can steal treasures from other people’s homes. But because there are no gaps here, the ghosts got trapped after entering and couldn’t steal the item, so they had to hide it here instead."

"Those five little ghosts can only move at night, and they haven’t left yet. Prepare a vermillion pen and talisman paper for me right away, I’ll get rid of them. Otherwise, the moment you open the door tonight, the item will be gone."

"Right away!" Now that the item was retrieved, Tong Lizhou’s hanging heart finally settled, "Uncle Cheng, go prepare these items!"

"Okay." Housekeeper Uncle Cheng was about to leave, but Yang Yu suddenly stopped him, "Housekeeper, please wait a moment."

Uncle Cheng looked at Yang Yu puzzled, "Mr. Yang, do you need anything else prepared?"

"No need," Yang Yu replied with a faint smile, "No need for all that fuss, just take out the talisman pendant in your pocket."
