Gu Yundong raised his eyes and looked behind Feng Daneng. The people who came to work at her homestead were already busy at this time in the past, but now, they had stopped and were looking over worriedly.

“What happened?” Gu Yundong’s expression turned grave.

Feng Daneng lowered his head slightly and wiped his rough face. His hands were trembling. “Yesterday, my senior brother came to look for me and saw the blueprints you gave me at my house. I didn’t expect him to secretly roll them up and take them away. He even gave them to the Peng family in the county. You know the Peng family, right?”

Gu Yundong shook her head. She had just arrived. Not to mention the Peng family in the county, even more than half of the people in the village were strangers to her.

Feng Daneng explained the situation of the Peng family to her. The Peng family was the local tyrant of Fengkai County. They were a big family in the county. Their ancestors had been in the cloth business since the beginning.

In the entire Fengkai County, all the cloth shops that were worth mentioning belonged to his family. Even those scattered small shops more or less had some business dealings with the Peng family.

Most importantly, the Peng family had an uncle who became an official in the capital. This caused the Peng family’s status in Fengkai County to rise even more. Even the Peng family’s disciples could do whatever they wanted.

The senior brother that Feng Daneng mentioned was the second young master of the Peng family, Peng Zhongfei.

Actually, even though he was his senior brother, it was only during the two years that Feng Daneng was in the prefecture capital. They were brought up by the same foreman, and they did not have much friendship.

Moreover, his senior brother Chang Fu boasted that he was from the county and did not think much of Feng Daneng. After the prefectural city, there was too little contact between them. Unless he needed his help, he would never be enthusiastic.

Yesterday, he had come over early in the morning to borrow money from Feng Daneng. However, after Feng Daneng accepted the Gu family’s job, he was full of energy. Every day, before dawn, he would go to the homestead to take a look and think about how to make it perfect.

As for his wife, Liu Guihua, she was watching Gu Yundong deal with the four thieves at the entrance of the Fang family’s house while munching on melon seeds.

Therefore, when Chang Fu came over, only his eight-year-old son was guarding the door.

His son knew Chang Fu. After letting Chang Fu in to drink water, he ran to the homestead to call Feng Daneng back.

In the countryside, this was how the uncles were treated. Unexpectedly, when he went to call his father, Chang Fu looked around and saw that the door of the main house was only ajar. He immediately pushed open the door and entered.

Then, he saw a small wooden box covered with a cloth on the bedside table. The wooden box was wiped clean. It was obvious that there was something valuable inside.

Chang Fu did not think of stealing money at first, but when he saw the blueprint inside, his eyes lit up. Without a word, he folded it and hid it in his clothes.

In order not to arouse Feng Daneng’s suspicion, he sat calmly in the central room and drank water while waiting for Feng Daneng to return. He chatted with him for a while before leaving.

Feng Daneng was already impatient and couldn’t wait for him to leave quickly. Then, he would go to the homestead to look at the progress of the house.

Therefore, when he realized that the blueprint was gone, it was already night time.

At that time, his face was pale. He rushed to the county city overnight, but when he arrived, the city gate was closed. When the city gate opened in the morning, he immediately ran to Chang Fu’s house. However, it was already too late. Chang Fu gave the blueprint to Peng Zhongfei.

Feng Daneng’s heart turned cold, but that was not all. Peng Zhongfei even asked Chang Fu to bring a message..
