Chapter 288 Taking stock of gains
When the police officer heard that Tian Xingzhu had so much savings, he suddenly looked up.
Knowing that the girl was a sent-down youth from Beijing, they still made a point of noting her enormous wealth.
Before coming here, Tian Xingzhu was actually wondering whether or not to tell the police the real amount.
But then she realized that even if she didn't say anything now, or said less, the police would find out as soon as they went to the post office to investigate, so there was no need to lie.
Moreover, Tian Xingzhu also knew that although she had a lot of money.
Ordinary people would never have such a large amount of savings; it might arouse suspicion from others.
But putting aside the fact that Nanjiang County is thousands of miles away from Beijing, communication in all aspects is not smooth right now.
They might not necessarily go to great lengths to investigate in Beijing because of this money.
Secondly, although she couldn't save that much money with her parents' monthly salaries.
But she knew about her father's previous wife's assets, which were their family's legitimate income, at least belonging to her father.
If these people do investigate, the final result won't affect her family at all.
After all, that person has been dead for many years.
As her spouse, her father legally inherited and owned the money and property left behind by that person, which is perfectly reasonable no matter where you look at it.
Their family's spending in Beijing, including food, clothing, and daily necessities, was significantly higher than that of people around them.
The neighbors all knew the truth.
This is no secret.
Therefore, after Tian Xingzhu understood these things, she was no longer so apprehensive and truthfully told the police officers who questioned her.
Qi Hongsheng, who had been completely invisible throughout, was stunned upon hearing Tian Xingzhu's reply.
My heart trembled with shock.
He never expected that his aunt's daughter would carry more than 30,000 yuan in cash with her when she went to the countryside, along with other valuables.
More than 30,000!
What an astronomical figure!
You should know that his parents' combined monthly salary is less than 100 yuan.
And Tian Xingzhu actually had more than 30,000 yuan in his hands just by casually going to a rural area.
He was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment, staring blankly at Tian Xingzhu.
At the same time, I realized that the more than 30,000 yuan was now gone just like that.
At this moment, Qi Hongsheng felt even more heartbroken than Tian Xingzhu.
He knew that if the more than 30,000 yuan were still in Tian Xingzhu's hands, given her generous nature, she would inevitably end up giving a large portion of it to him.
After all, Tian Xingzhu was in the Lanshan Brigade, and he would be called upon to handle any matters.
Thinking about this was like a duck that had been in his grasp flying away, and for a moment Qi Hongsheng was so agitated that his eyes turned red and his eyeballs almost bulged out.
After hearing Tian Xingzhu's report, the police officers nodded in understanding.
Such a large amount of cash could easily attract the attention of some people with ill intentions.
After taking notes, the policeman prepared to call a few people to go to the post office for investigation.
Then they sent Tian Xingzhu and Qi Hongsheng back, and said they would send someone to inform them of the results.
But Tian Xingzhu couldn't just go back like that. She had to go to the post office with the police no matter what. She was filled with hatred.
She wouldn't have peace of mind until the thief was caught.
The policeman understood her situation and, without paying any attention to the two of them, arranged for someone to go to the post office as soon as possible.
While Tian Xingzhu and Qi Hongsheng were busy with the police, Feng Qingqing, after settling her two children into a nap at home, began to take stock of the supplies she had received from Tian Xingzhu that day.
She first organized those large bundles.
These packages looked enormous, and she guessed that they probably contained things like blankets and clothes.
Upon opening it, it was indeed as expected!
One of the packages contained a cotton quilt weighing about ten pounds. The quilt looked fluffy and should be very warm to cover oneself with.
Several woolen coats were placed next to the quilt.
Feng Qingqing took them out one by one.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed made in Beijing; these styles were not something that their Nanshan County could produce.
The wool coats were in different colors: one pink, one red, one black, and one fuchsia.
Aside from black, the other colors are extremely eye-catching.
In the 70s, amidst a sea of drab clothes on the streets, he stood out remarkably.
Then they found two more cotton-padded jackets.
This cotton-padded coat, made of dark red corduroy wrapped around cotton wadding, looks understated yet luxurious.
Another one is pure black, but the cuffs and other parts of the cotton-padded jacket are embroidered with some lace, which also makes it look like it is of excellent quality.
In addition, there are two sets of sweaters and long johns, and two sets of thermal underwear.
Two pairs of cotton woolen leather shoes and a pair of leather gloves.
Two hats.
As Feng Qingqing tidied things up, she mentally complained.
When Tian Xingzhu went back, she made sure to get everything ready, inside and out.
And it's clear that these things aren't cheap.
Then Feng Qingqing sorted out another package.
Upon opening the package, one would find various daily necessities inside, including shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, face cream, soap, and even an eyebrow pencil, two lipsticks of different colors, and other personal items.
Finally, there was even a bottle of sunscreen.
Feng Qingqing guessed that it might be imported cosmetics.
Then open another package.
The package contained many snacks, including maltose, mung bean cake, peanut brittle, White Rabbit milk candy, sachima, glutinous rice strips, peach crisps, malted milk powder, milk powder, chocolate, canned fruit, as well as some red dates and candied dates, hawthorn slices, beef jerky, etc.
Looking at the large bag of pastries and snacks, Feng Qingqing secretly clicked her tongue.
I never imagined that Tian Xingzhu was living such a comfortable life in the countryside, with so much food to eat.
Then, Feng Qingqing picked up a small bundle from the ground that she remembered had been taken from Tian Xingzhu's waist.
She knew that the bundle must contain something valuable.
That's why it was placed last.
I picked it up now, and I was filled with anticipation.
really!
When she opened the bundle, she saw thick stacks of ten-yuan bills inside.
She felt happy.
I never expected Tian Xingzhu to have this hobby, carrying so much cash with him.
She glanced at it and guessed it might cost over ten thousand.
She looked at the bundles of money and banknotes that looked like they had just been taken out and tied up.
Not minding the trouble, they excitedly began counting.
After counting for about twenty minutes, Feng Qingqing finally sorted out all the bills, both large and small, from Tian Xingzhu's bag.
She discovered that Tian Xingzhu was truly a wealthy woman!
There was a staggering 33,210 yuan in cash in the bag.
As for the tickets, they were basically all valid nationwide.
There were quite a few, including meat coupons, cloth coupons, cotton coupons, food coupons, pastry coupons, soap coupons, toothpaste coupons, brown sugar coupons, and so on.
Feng Qingqing was overjoyed; she never expected that her casual action today would yield so many banknotes.
