    Not long after, the three Hebrew elders arrived at the restaurant. Without any delay, they handed the list and ledger directly to Jin Shuai. Jin Shuai took the items, first glancing at the list, then carefully examining the ledger. After confirming everything was correct, Jin Shuai turned to Di Pojun and said, "Go and have two more copies made. One original should be given to Zhang Yuanshi to present to the Emperor, and the other to the Three Departments. Also, arrange for the Imperial Guards to escort these people to the prison." Di Pojun accepted the order and hurriedly left with the list and ledger to arrange for his trusted men to handle these matters. Next came the crucial part: dividing the spoils. The leading elder nervously reached out and pulled a financial list from his robes, then respectfully presented it to Jin Shuai with both hands. Jin Shuai took the list, stared at it, and couldn't help but gasp: "Wow!" He thought to himself, these guys are indeed the most adept at amassing wealth on Earth! There were 384 shops on just one street, not including the church. In addition, there were 869 residences of various sizes, and the total value of gold and silver amounted to a staggering 9.4167 Million strings of cash, not including antiques, paintings, and other valuables! Jin Shuai roughly estimated that the cash alone was equivalent to nearly two years' worth of tax revenue for the national treasury! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curse inwardly, "That old bastard Zhao Zhen has really made a fortune!" Actually, the most valuable part was the real estate; the residences alone were worth tens of millions of strings of cash. Jin Shuai first handed the list to Zhang Maoze, and after everyone had reviewed it, Jin Shuai said to the three elders, "After we receive the goods, food will be delivered. After you've eaten and drunk your fill, rest for three days, pack your personal belongings, and then we'll send you to Mingzhou to catch a boat." Jin Shuai then gave Di Pojun a look. Di Pojun understood and went to arrange for people to take over the money. After Di Pojun left, Jin Shuai leisurely pulled a stack of papers from his pocket and smiled at the three men before him, saying, "Come on, sign and seal this." The three exchanged glances, somewhat puzzled, but still reached out and took the stack of papers from Jin Shuai. However, when they saw the contents of the papers, they were immediately stunned—it was a blank agreement to settle a debt with real estate! The elder in charge's face instantly turned extremely ugly. He stared wide-eyed at Jin Shuai in disbelief. But after only a moment of stunned silence, he quickly recovered and unhesitatingly picked up a pen and signed his name on the agreement. Seeing this, the other two, though unwilling, had no choice but to reluctantly sign as well at the elder's prompting. The signing process seemed somewhat hurried, as if they all wanted to end this awkward situation as quickly as possible. After a while, Di Pojun returned to the restaurant. He walked to Jin Shuai's side, nodded slightly, indicating that he had verified the documents. Seeing this, Jin Shuai's smile grew even brighter. He cheerfully said to the three elders, "The matter has been settled. You can go back now. I will send someone to deliver good wine, food, and provisions to you immediately. We will depart on time three days from now at dawn."
