Datang Nongwang

Chapter 431 Unrighteous Gains
In the small garden.

Xiaohong took Wan'er and jumped up and down a few times.

"Little lady, don't you think it's strange here? The sound of stepping around is normal, but the place where we step on it sounds like a wooden board underneath." After the jump, Xiaohong doubted.

Wan'er was also very curious, and just like what Xiaohong said, she felt that something was wrong, "Xiaohong, let's go back to have lunch first, and we will come back in the afternoon, anyway, this place is mine."

There is something strange that cannot be resolved.

This is not like Wan'er's temperament.

Xiaohong looked at her little lady, and nodded slightly.

After a while.

Wan'er and his party left Yuanzhuang and went back to Lizhuang.

after lunch.

The sun is hot.

Wan'er, who was supposed to take a nap, crawled in and out to find her tools from the miscellaneous room.

Just when Wan'er was about to go out with her tools.

But Li Chongyuan came down from the second floor, "Wan'er, it's noon, the sun is so big, you can't sleep well, why are you going?"

Seeing her fourth brother appearing, Wan'er felt like a ghost in her heart, she just dodged out of the courtyard gate, and ran out of the village with a trot.

Li Chongyuan was puzzled.

Hastily followed out.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Li Chongyuan became even more curious when he saw that the girl was leading Xiaohong to Yuanzhuang.

As far as Li Chongyuan knows.

in the morning.

The girl took Xiaohong and a few servants to Yuanzhuang to clean the former Zhao family's house.

But at noon, under the scorching sun, the girl didn't take a good nap, but ran out, and she seemed to be in a hurry, more like she was afraid of being caught by her.

This is not.

Li Chongyuan became suspicious.

After recruiting some Xingba people, they walked directly to Yuanzhuang.

Yuanzhuang.

The distance from Li Zhuang is only a small road away, and it will never exceed three miles, that is, one and a half kilometers.

If you take a shortcut, it is even closer.

In a quarter of an hour.

Li Chongyuan and the others went outside Yuanzhuang.

"Xiao Langjun, the fields in Yuanzhuang are fertile. We have traveled all the way, and the fields are much better than ours in Lizhuang. If it weren't for the fact that our Lizhuang has horse manure, the crops would definitely be worse than those in Yuanzhuang. Less." Before entering the village, Xing Ba pointed to the crops in the field.

Li Chongyuan looked back, "Yes, such a good land is really a waste. But it will be fine next year, and the crops next year will be better than before, and even surpass Li Zhuang."

Yuanzhuang became Li Chongyuan's territory.

Li Chongyuan has already made a plan for how to develop his own territory.

Plant wheat, and then plant some bean.

Even near the flooded water, Li Chongyuan planned to drive out and continue to expand his taro and sugarcane planting area.

After all, it is not suitable to grow anything near the waterlogging, and only taro is the most suitable one.

After the conversation was over, Li Chongyuan stopped talking and walked straight into Yuanzhuang.

This time.

It was the first time for Li Chongyuan to come to this Yuanzhuang.

Although I have heard about the situation in Yuanzhuang from time to time, I have never been here.

Entering the village for the first time.

Li Chongyuan looked curiously at the most conspicuous mansion in Yuanzhuang.

Yuanzhuang.

Except for the original Zhao's house, the other houses are similar to those in Li Zhuang.

Civil structure, thatched roof.

Many collapsed.

If it wasn't for that conspicuous mansion, if Li Chongyuan came out of Chang'an for the first time, he might have thought this place was a deserted village.

I have lived in Lizhuang for a year.

In a year's time, I know everything I need to know.

Use one word to describe the current people, poor.

Extremely poor.

The poor are extremely poor, and the rich are already utterly rich.

The polarization is extremely serious.

In Chang'an City.

Dancing and dancing every day.

But outside Chang'an City, every day is like a year, and the hunger is endless.

This made Li Chongyuan look unnaturally at such an abrupt mansion in Yuanzhuang.

"This is the Zhao family's house." Li Chongyuan pointed to the original Zhao's house and sighed.

Xing Ba nodded, "Yes, Mr. Xiao Lang, that is Zhao Youcai's house, but from now on it will be Mr. Xiao Lang's house."

"I don't want such a house, bad luck." Li Chongyuan sincerely despises such a house.

of course.

Although this kind of house is larger than the county magistrate's mansion in Chang'an City, you know that people have died in it, and you also know some dirty things in it.

Just like this, the house was given to Li Chongyuan for nothing, but Li Chongyuan didn't care.

Outside the house.

Li Chongyuan was talking with Zuo Xingba and the others.

And at this time in the small garden in the house.

Wan'er and Xiaohong are working hard to dig the soil with a small hoe.

"Bang" sound.

The hoe looked like it had dug up some kind of plank, and the happy Wan'er was overjoyed, "Xiaohong, hurry up, keep digging, there must be treasures down there."

"Okay, little lady, don't touch your hands, so as not to stain your clothes." Xiao Hong followed the instructions and continued to wave the small hoe.

in a moment.

A large stone slab appeared in front of the two of them.

After Wan'er saw this, she didn't care whether it was dirty or not, and went straight to her hands.

Under the joint efforts of the two, the Ruoda slate was lifted away.

A smelly and musty smell came rushing towards her face when the stone slab was lifted. Even though Wan'er couldn't wait to see what good things were in the pothole under the stone slab, she had no choice but to dodge. Stepping back, covering his nose again and again, "It smells so bad, it smells so bad."

And this time.

Li Chongyuan walked into the house with Xing Ba and others.

"I heard that girl Wan'er brought someone over to clean it this morning. After such a cleaning, it can be seen in the eyes. It's still a good house. Wan'er said that this house will belong to her in the future. It seems that she really cares about it." .By the way, this girl didn't know where she went after she entered Yuanzhuang, okay, did you see where that girl ran just now?" Li Chongyuan has been looking for Wan'er since he entered this Yuanzhuang figure.

Xingba approached Li Chongyuan, stretched out his hand and pointed to the back of the house and said: "Young Lord, I guess the young lady is in the house, I heard a voice just now, it seems to be coming from there."

After Li Chongyuan heard this, he no longer waited to see what happened to the house, and quickly walked towards the direction Xing Ba pointed.

It's not that Li Chongyuan is worried about Wan'er's safety.

I'm just curious about this girl's behavior.

A group of people arrived in the small garden in a flash.

Suddenly.

The two small figures were looking down at one place at this time, and they were still chattering.

Li Chongyuan was puzzled.

But according to the soil around the two of them, it seemed like they were digging something.

Then he walked over, "You girl, you don't take a nap at noon, so you come here to dig something."

Wan'er, who was concentrating all her attention, was looking into the dark pit, but was so startled by Li Chongyuan's sudden sound that she almost fell into the pit.

"Fourth brother, you are too bad, you always scare me." Wan'er, who was pulled by Li Chongyuan, saw that the person who came was her fourth brother, and repeatedly patted her small breasts, her eyes were full of resentment.

Seeing Li Chongyuan coming, Xiaohong quickly moved to Wan'er's side, lowered her head, as if she was about to accept punishment.

Li Chongyuan didn't say anything to him, approached the pothole, stuck out his head and poked around, "I dug this up from the place you found? It's pitch black inside, so you can't see anything."

"Fourth brother, this is the place Xiaohong found this morning, so I wanted to dig it open to see what's inside. Fourth brother, let Xingba and the others go down and have a look, maybe there is something precious." Wan'er After recovering, he approached Li Chongyuan and begged.

Li Chongyuan couldn't see what was in the pothole.

He didn't take it seriously, "Forget it, smelling this smell, it's obviously not for storing treasures, it's like a place to hide filth after killing people and stealing goods."

Just the smell that floats out of this pothole.

Really bad smell.

The musty smell was quite strong, and there was also the smell of some rotting corpses.

According to Li Chongyuan's self-cognition, in the pit, it is possible that after Zhao Youcai killed someone, he threw people into the pit.

otherwise.

As far as the smell of rotting corpses is concerned, how can one explain it?

Li Chongyuan's words could not dispel Wan'er's curiosity.

"Fourth brother, let Xingba and the others go down and have a look. If it's really a place where filth is hidden, then I don't want this house anymore. If it's not, there might be some treasure hidden there." Wan'er shook The hem of his fourth brother's clothes continued to beg.

Li Chongyuan looked at Xingba, "Xingba, why don't you go down and have a look?"

"Okay, Mr. Xiaolang. However, this hole is a bit deep, and we need to prepare something." Xing Ba received the instruction and nodded in response.

Seeing that her fourth brother had complied with her begging, Wan'er immediately beamed with joy, her eyes almost narrowed into a line, as if she could see her baby right away.

Shortly after.

Ropes, torches and other things were borrowed by Xingbaji from the tenants in Yuanzhuang.

With these things.

The eight or so people went straight to their hands and feet, and began to crawl into the pothole.

After a while.

Xing Ba had already entered the bottom of the pit, lit a torch, raised his head to the top of the pit and looked down, Li Chongyuan shouted: "Little Lang, the depth of the pit is about three feet deep, and there is another one on my left. Passage, wait for me to go and check."

"Then be careful, and nothing will happen." Li Chongyuan stood on the top of the cave, and loudly confessed to Xingba at the bottom of the pit.

Xingba smiled, and went straight into the passage with a torch, and the light of the fire gradually disappeared.

Wan'er, who was standing on the top of the cave, was already a little anxious at this moment, covering her nose all the time, looking nervously at the bottom of the cave, her eyes flickering with anticipation.

a while.

The fire appeared again.

When Li Chongyuan was about to open his mouth to ask Xingba at the bottom of the cave, Wan'er jumped ahead, "Xingba, is there any treasure in it?"

Okay.

One sentence baby on the left, one sentence baby on the right.

Hearing this, Li Chongyuan wanted to slap this girl.

Just such a pothole, where is the place to hide the treasure.

Even if the pit is surrounded by stones, the smell is enough to show that there is absolutely no treasure inside.

and.

Su Dingfang and Wang Datong have already copied the Zhao family, how could they miss any place.

Even if the pothole is not found.

It was also possible to get some specific information from Zhao Youcai's mouth.

Xingba at the bottom of the cave raised his head and shouted loudly to Li Chongyuan's brother and sister at the top of the cave: "Little man, little lady, I have made a big discovery."

"What did you find? Is there really a treasure?" Li Chongyuan was puzzled.

Xing Ba responded loudly again, "Little Lang, I can't say, you have to come down to find out. Lao Yao, you put Xiao Lang down."

Li Chongyuan was puzzled.

Big discovery?
What a great discovery in such a place.

After Yao Kong got the words of Xingba, he began to help Li Chongyuan tie the rope.

At this time, Wan'er, after hearing Xingba's words, was even more eager to try, "Fourth brother, fourth brother, I want to go down too. I discovered this, and the treasure inside is mine."

"What are you going down for, just wait for me honestly." Li Chongyuan stared.

But Wan'er still refused, and tied the other end of the rope around her waist, which made Li Chongyuan shake his head and had to nod.

Yao Kong and the others slowly put Li Chongyuan and his sister down.

When he reached the bottom of the cave, he loosened the rope, lit the torch, and followed Xingba to drill into the passage.

Still smell bad.

The smell of rotting corpses became more and more serious after Li Chongyuan and Zhao went inside.

Others cover their noses and pass by.

But Li Chongyuan and the others covered their noses and entered.

After a while.

When Li Chongyuan and the others passed through the passage and came to a room-like cave, they were immediately dumbfounded.

"This……"

Li Chongyuan was speechless.

Even Wan'er, who had been pinning her hopes on the baby, was speechless at this moment.

After half a day.

Only then did Li Chongyuan and his brother and sister slow down.

The cave is not big, but not small either.

It will be about fifty square meters.

But in this cave of fifty square meters, there are countless boxes stacked on top of each other.

And some boxes have already been opened by Xingba.

In the opened box, a golden yellow shone.

"Golden pancakes, fourth brother, fourth brother, it's golden pancakes, a lot of golden pancakes." Wan'er, who came to her senses, went straight to the opened boxes, beaming with joy.

Li Chongyuan swallowed, and lit a torch to illuminate his surroundings.

There are at least hundreds of boxes, large and small.

Among the dozen or so boxes that were opened, all of them were golden cakes.

If all the other unopened boxes were filled with golden cakes, then the wealth here would be worth at least 50 copper coins.

So many golden pancakes appeared here, which made Li Chongyuan feel strange.

Immediately.

Li Chongyuan handed the torch to Xingba one by one, ran to other boxes, and began to open them one by one.

Gold pancakes.

Gold pancakes.

Still gold pancakes.

After opening a dozen boxes, Li Chongyuan was already dazzled by these golden pancakes.

"Xiao Langjun, there are other jewels in the box here." Xing Ba, who was helping to open the box on the other side, shouted after opening the box.

Li Chongyuan walked over after hearing the sound.

Suddenly.

Boxes of jewels appeared before Li Chongyuan's eyes.

Wan'er who heard the sound rushed over, picked up the pearl and agate in the box, and carried herself away with joy, "It's mine, it's all mine."

Such great wealth.

Appeared in such a Zhuangzi.

Li Chongyuan began to wonder whether the ancestors of the Zhao family had ever amassed a lot of money.

What's more, the previous owner of this house had amassed a lot of money.

otherwise.

It is unscientific that such a huge wealth appears here.
