Siheyuan: a hole in the sky

Chapter 89 Huge Wealth (Fourth Change)

"Grandma, it's a bit dusty here, why don't I take you to the park." Zhou Jianguo said to the old lady.

Just after twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Xu San brought five people to the courtyard and began to build toilets.

"No, grandma, I still like it here." The old lady refused.

It's not that the old lady doesn't want to go to the park, she just feels sorry for Zhou Jianguo. She considers that Zhou Jianguo's health is just right now and it's time for him to recuperate. At this time, as a grandma, she can't hold him back.

The park is some way away from the courtyard house, and it would take half an hour to walk there, and the grandson would be tired, so the old lady refused.

"There is no one I know in the park. It's no fun to go there. We are all neighbors here. Everyone is talking and laughing. It's more comfortable!"

She knew that Zhou Jianguo was filial, but if Zhou Jianguo got tired because of this, it would be too late even if she regretted it in her heart.

"Okay, I'll make a pot of tea for grandma, and bring some tender peanuts. These tender peanuts are so good that grandma can bite your teeth."

"Well, this is good, grandson, hurry up, grandma is really greedy when you say this." The old lady said happily, she really likes to eat those tender peanuts.

"Okay, grandma, I'll bring it right away."

Three minutes later, Zhou Jianguo came to the old lady with a fruit plate. As he put it down, he said in a low voice, "Old lady, only you and the first mother can drink this pot of tea. Peanuts don't matter."

Obviously, this pot of tea was brewed by Zhou Jianguo with the spiritual water in the Dongtian Orb, and the effect was obvious.

"Don't worry, grandma is old, but she's not an idiot!" The old lady fondled Zhou Jianguo's head. She knew that the "fairy fate" that the eldest grandson met needed to be kept secret, so, in terms of some things, she Never be confused.

Just like the fresh vegetables that Zhou Jianguo kept bringing out before, the old lady never asked where they came from. She only knew that this was the "celestial fate" of her grandson, and she had to help keep it a secret.

"Hey, grandma is amazing!" Zhou Jianguo flattered her.

After that, Zhou Jianguo compensated the old lady for a while, and didn't return to the backyard until the first mother and the third mother came.

He wasn't ashamed, but he was ready to check to see if there were any hidden secrets in this courtyard.

To be honest, Zhou Jianguo didn't think of this before, but after Xu San and the others started digging, especially after they dug out a few broken bowls, he suddenly realized it.

Zhou Jianguo has heard before that in some large courtyards, there are often secret rooms and the like, and there are likely to be treasures and the like in them.

When the courtyard houses in Huajing used to be renovated, similar things happened more than once, which caused some conflicts, and finally went to court or something.

Zhou Jianguo hadn't thought about this before, and it wasn't until this time that he realized that he might have made a mistake of being dark under the lights, forgetting that there might be treasures in this courtyard house.

Zhou Jianguo's spiritual power instantly enveloped the entire courtyard. Seeing this, he was a little surprised, because the courtyard he lived in was actually a courtyard with five entrances, but the last half of the courtyard was destroyed by the previous war. Inside, it was turned into ruins, so now the courtyard seems to have only three entrances, but in fact, it should be three and a half entrances.

"The Wujin courtyard house, this must have been a county king's courtyard house in the past! (I didn't check it carefully, so let's take it like this, don't investigate the data party!)" Zhou Jianguo was a little bit tongue-tied, originally thought it was a very Ordinary courtyard houses, now it seems, are not so simple.

"In this way, I have to check carefully to see if there is any treasure under here!" Zhou Jianguo thought enthusiastically, and then, his spiritual power penetrated downward, and in the next second, the entire courtyard underground [-] The range of meters is within his 'mastery'.

Under the scanning of spiritual power, the secrets underground in the courtyard were fully revealed in front of Zhou Jianguo.

"Hey, there is really a secret room, and there are really treasures!" Zhou Jianguo quickly discovered a secret room. This secret room is hidden in the ruins behind. There are more than [-] boxes inside, and each box contains a lot of gold and silver treasures. .

The real location of this secret room is halfway up a well that was buried by ruins, about ten meters above the ground, and the water resistance is quite good. So far, there is no trace of water entering the secret room.

"It's really a genius idea to build the secret room next to the well."

Water wells are too common and common. There are many outside, and the wells are full of water. Who would hide treasures in them? Isn’t this a waste of good things? So, under normal circumstances, you come here to see After this well, I don't think much about it at all.

In addition, like the wells of rich people, it is actually a taboo.

The inner courtyard of a big family is quite dirty. People outside can hear from time to time that in a certain courtyard, a certain person threw himself into a well, or in other words, a certain person angered a certain person, so he was directly thrown into the well. Inside the well.

Because in the eyes of outsiders, many of the wells in those big houses have some grievances, let alone the wells in the houses of the county kings. I believe that the grievances below are almost filled.

Therefore, even if they came to raid the house, those people would generally ignore the well inside.

There are too many wronged souls here, if you really want to go down, if you are entangled by the wronged souls at that time, you will be courting your own death.

However, the former owner of this courtyard house, or the owner who built this secret room, did the opposite and built the treasure room next to the well. It can be seen that this person is still a little smart.

Of course, the predecessors planted trees and the descendants took advantage of the shade. Now these treasures belong to Zhou Jianguo.

"Take it!!" Zhou Jianguo immediately stowed away the twenty-six treasure chests in the treasure room, and opened them one by one in the Dongtian Orb, waiting for the master Zhou Jianguo's "fortune".

After opening it just now, after seeing the situation inside, although Zhou Jianguo was already mentally prepared, seeing the treasures such as gold, silver, and jewelry piled up in front of him like a hill, he was still in a hurry. Lost mind.

"Hahaha" Zhou Jianguo laughed out loud. The treasures all over the floor made him a little crazy.

Fortunately, Zhou Jianguo was successful in cultivation, and he had some psychological preparations ahead, so he quickly woke up.

"Huh!" He exhaled deeply, looking at the treasures in front of him like a hill, he was still very excited.

He picked up a gold ingot, weighed it, and found that it was about fifty taels. If converted into a modern weight, it would be about 1556 grams.

In ancient times, one catty was equal to sixteen taels, and one tael was about 30 grams.

Let’s get off topic, the current TV series are really careless, some of the things in it are too fake, for example, when you go out to drink or something, the silver you carry with you is always [-] taels, [-] taels, etc. It’s really fake .

According to our current calculation, the ten taels is one catty, the one hundred taels is ten catties, and the five hundred taels is fifty catties.

Who would be so stupid to take fifty catties of silver with them when eating? Not only is it inconvenient, but it is also very troublesome to carry, okay?

Of course, I still need to explain here. In ancient times, one catty was sixteen taels. So, if we really want to say it, one hundred taels of silver is not ten catties, but only about six catties, and five hundred taels is about thirty-one catties. .

Therefore, if you go out with one hundred taels of silver, there is not much problem. Six catties is not so heavy, and it is not conspicuous to carry. Indeed.
Hey, TV shows are harmful!

"Gold ingots, it seems that the gold has been hidden here for at least one or two hundred years."

Gold bars only appeared in the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, the Western world began to seep in. Slowly, gold ingots became gold bars.

The gold here is all gold ingots. It can be seen that the gold here has been buried for quite a long time.

"One is fifty taels. There are three hundred and fifty taels in this box, which is [-] taels of gold. Converted to the current weight, that is [-] catties, which is equivalent to [-] kilograms. That's about half a ton, and here are twelve boxes filled with gold ingots, so there are six tons of gold in total." Zhou Jianguo was surprised from ear to ear.

Although he had already thought that the amount of gold here was not cheap, Zhou Jianguo really did not expect that the amount could reach six tons.

This is six tons of gold. Even if the purity of the gold here is a little lower, it is still an astronomical sum.

In the 60s, a gram of gold had a minimum of 35.085 meters of gold and a maximum of 45.86 meters of gold. Let’s take an intermediate price, which is 40 meters of gold per gram, and a ton of gold is 100 million grams. If multiplied by 40, it is [-] million meters gold.

Forty million meters of gold was an astronomical sum in the previous life, let alone in the 60s.

To put it bluntly, at that time, there might not have been so many foreign ///// remittances, but now Zhou Jianguo has a full six tons of gold, which means [-] million meters of gold.

With such a large amount of money, Zhou Jianguo's heart almost jumped out of surprise.

"Fortunately, the heart disease has been healed, otherwise, this time is really terrible!" Zhou Jianguo looked at the gold on the ground in front of him with a smile, but his heart gradually calmed down.

The value of these golds is indeed very high, but compared to Dongtian Baozhu, hehe, that is the difference between stones and diamonds, there is no comparison between the two.

"However, I have achieved the freedom of gold and the freedom of silver!" Zhou Jianguo still had a smile on his face.

There are a total of twenty-six boxes here, twelve of which are gold, twenty are silver, and the remaining four are filled with pearls, jade, antiques, emeralds, jewelry and the like.

The value of gold is astonishing, and the value of the remaining treasures will not be low, but now Zhou Jianguo doesn't have much thought to calculate.

After calculating the value of gold, especially the figure of [-] million, Zhou Jianguo's thoughts on calculating the value of these things gradually faded.

Just like what the book said, once money reaches a certain number, it is just a number for some people. Zhou Jianguo now has such a mentality.

Two hundred and forty million rice gold is enough for him, plus a few hundred million rice gold and so on, that's it.

Besides, aren’t these treasures still here? Let’s do some calculations when we get interested in the future. It’s an unknown surprise, isn’t it?
