The Elder Extraordinary—a veteran of the Huang Family, former Grain Warehouse Guardian, and thief of two million catties of grain—asked, "Sir, I was wondering, how long will it take you to remove the one million catties of grain?"
Before Tang Wen could even speak, the man hurriedly explained, "If it takes a long time, there will be more people to silence!"
"I brought a Void Stone."
The Elder Extraordinary breathed a sigh of relief. "In that case, Sir, you can sneak into the grain depot and quietly take the million catties of grain. Hmm, actually, the more you take, the better."
"And why is that?" Tang Wen asked humbly.
"The key to success is to take as much grain as possible to create a larger deficit. Sir, you need to make everyone in this chain of command disappear—from the Steward to the night patrol Guards to the camp's gate Guards. You have to make it look like they've absconded with the goods."
"Will the family's upper echelons believe it?" Tang Wen frowned.
