Five large gold ingots, each weighing around ten taels; Manbao's mouth fell open as she and her friends exchanged astonished looks.
Bai Shan's face darkened, and after closing the box, Manbao pondered for a moment before saying, "Unearned rewards are not to be accepted; let's return them."
Bai Shan nodded in agreement. "Mine can be sent back directly by Daji. How will you return yours?"
Manbao thought for a moment and said, "Take them to Jishi Hall, let Shopkeeper Zheng handle the return."
She looked down at the box of gold. "After sending the gold, we have to at least inform Shopkeeper Zheng about it."
After all, she had been able to enter because of Doctor Ji, who was a physician at Jishi Hall. What the gold signified, she did not know, nor did she want to.
Manbao picked up the box and called over Zhou Silang and Zhou Lijun. "Silang, take all the gifts out, we're going to Jishi Hall."
