The richest man starts from the treasure hunt in the container
Chapter 699 Race against time!
Zhu Yu straightened up and looked at Ran Jie and his team members scattered around the old city. There was basically nothing in the places they dug.
At this moment, Ran Jie ran over quickly again and said to Zhu Yu:
"Our people just said that they followed those people and watched, and those people were already building a camp.
It is said that after the camp is set up, we will come over to the old city today to take a look around, and start the official excavation tomorrow - and the TV station will follow us with cameras. Because it is spoken in English, our left-behind staff can understand it..."
Ran Jie's meaning was obvious. Zhu Yu had to make a decision. Now he needed to consider whether to withdraw immediately!
Zhu Yu remembered the time when he was digging an arms warehouse on the edge of the town. He had an idea and immediately said:
"You don't have to run around, come with me!"
Others heard his voice and gathered around.
Zhu Yu took them to the big mound in the middle and said to them:
"Here, you have a good look. Here, where I pointed, you dig down at this position. Make the opening larger and dig faster. Change people every ten minutes and try to dig out the results within an hour -
According to my inference, this big mound should have been the location of the government office, and there should be good things..."
After saying that, he backed away.
Ran Jie had never doubted Zhu Yu's ability to find the location of the treasure, so as soon as Zhu Yu retreated, he immediately began to organize people.
Originally, there were less than ten people in total. Excluding Zhu Yu, he was divided into three groups. He, Qin Fei, and Cao Dalong each led a group, and then started digging.
Not long after digging, there is frozen soil below, which is not easy to dig. Fortunately, they were divided into three groups, and the three of them, Ran Jie, were far more powerful than ordinary people, and the other team members were not comparable to ordinary people.
So the digging speed is very fast.
Zhu Yu returned to the small mound. This place is about two hundred meters away from the big mound in the middle. The people over there, except for Ran Jie, can't tell what he is doing here.
When he saw that others were not paying attention to him, he bent down and pressed on the land!
A piece of frozen soil was directly absorbed into the space!
A big hole appeared in the ground!
Zhu Yu jumped into the pit, pushed his feet to both sides, stretched his hands downwards, and a big pit appeared again!
And the third time, the cellar appeared in front of Zhu Yu!
This is actually a cellar-like space, but over time, the cellar collapsed, and the original owner did not come back to take away the things, giving Zhu Yu an advantage.
There are four jars, three large and one small. The big jar is one meter high and the small jar is about the size of a basketball.
There were eleven irregular-shaped gold cakes in the small jar, which were about two or three kilograms each.
This was a huge sum of money both then and now.
Zhu Yu put the jar of gold into the space first.
Of the remaining three large jars, two contained copper coins - full of copper coins, all of which had been hardened together. Zhu Yu didn't care whether these copper coins were rare or not, he just took them away first.
There is also a jar containing the kind of silver coins with reliefs, which can be seen to be of the Tsarist Russian variety.
It seems that there should have been foreign trade at that time.
After Zhu Yu put away the four jars, he glanced around and found that there should be some things in the cellar, which seemed to be furs, papers, books, etc., but now they have turned into ashes.
Ran Jie's shouts came from the distance, and Zhu Yu immediately put the frozen soil blocks back in the space!
Half a minute later, Zhu Yu showed his head behind the mound and watched Ran Jie running towards this side holding the walkie-talkie.
"Boss, those people have already started preparing the assault boat!"
"Then speed up your speed!" Zhu Yu shouted.
Ran Jie raised his hand to show that he understood.
Zhu Yu put the things in the frozen soil back to their original positions, and then used nearby sand to mess up the traces.
He now almost understood that the location of this small mound should be the small courtyard. The location is remote, the place is small and unobtrusive, making it a good place to hide things.
It should be the place where a wealthy businessman or official hid his gold at that time. However, something might have happened later and the money cellar was not excavated.
After all, these things were considered a huge sum of money no matter which dynasty they were placed in in ancient times!
If the original owner left normally, it would be impossible not to take the money with him.
After tidying up the area again and basically restoring it to its original state, Zhu Yu walked around the area again and checked again. He found nothing valuable and walked towards where Ran Jie and the others were.
There, at the location pointed by Zhu Yu, Ran Jie and the others had dug a pit about one meter deep. Below is a layer of frozen soil, and the excavated soil is filled with ice stubble.
Zhu Yu did not go over to help, but walked to the edge of the old city.
Over there is the approximate direction where those people Ran Jie mentioned just now went.
This island in the middle of the lake is about two or three kilometers away from the shore. If you use an assault boat to get there, it will not take more than ten minutes.
However, it will definitely take some time for the other party to prepare.
Zhu Yu hid his figure behind the mound, opened his eyes and looked over there.
However, the distance was still too far, and I could only see people vaguely moving, but I couldn't see specifically who was there or what they were doing.
At this time, Zhu Yu felt that his Heavenly Eye should be upgraded.
The island in the middle of the lake was dozens of meters higher than the lake surface, so he looked at the shore from a commanding position and wasn't too worried about the other party being able to spot him.
Ran Jie's excavation over there was still going on, and Zhu Yu suddenly saw an assault boat starting to launch over there!
Several people dragged three assault boats to the shore, then pushed the assault boats into the water, and then began to move things onto the assault boats!
Zhu Yu knew that within the next twenty minutes at most, those people would be here!
At this time, the sky had darkened, and large dark clouds were slowly drifting over, indicating that the sky was about to change.
Zhu Yu looked up at the sky and then at the city, and found that Ran Jie and the others were still digging quickly.
Qin Fei held up the walkie-talkie and looked at Zhu Yu. He found that Zhu Yu had already seen it, and he pointed to the other side.
Zhu Yu nodded, indicating that he already knew.
Seeing that Zhu Yu had no intention of stopping, Ran Jie and the others were still digging quickly. However, a small group of people had left the excavation site and ran to their temporary camp.
Zhu Yu guessed that these people should have packed up their tents and prepared for the assault boat.
Ten minutes later, Zhu Yu saw the three assault boats on the opposite side starting to board people, then left the shore and drove towards this side.
Scattered snowflakes began to float in the sky, and there were also drops of rain - this was a combination of rain and snow. Zhu Yu was a little surprised that in such weather, those people would actually come here to see the scene of the old city.
Is it a show or a job?
Zhu Yu estimated the time, and then immediately ran over to where Ran Jie and the others were!
As soon as I arrived at my location, I heard Ran Jie say:
"Boss, dig out a box with a copper seal inside..." "That's it! Fill the hole and move out!" Zhu Yu took the box from Ran Jie's hand and said quickly.
When Zhu Yu said that this was the target, the others suddenly became excited, and everyone was shoveling soil to fill the hole.
It originally took nearly an hour to dig, but it took less than six minutes to fill it in!
In the old city, the sound of the assault boat engine can already be heard!
The violent rain mixed with ice particles fell down, blocking the view, the ground became slippery, and some traces were washed away by the rain. Zhu Yu and the others quickly ran out of the old city and came to the camp below.
At this time, he could hear the assault boat over there approaching the shore. Someone jumped off the boat and walked towards the old city while talking.
Zhu Yu and the others were lying in the bushes, not daring to move.
Although there is a cover here, if the other party goes to the old city and looks carefully here, some traces can still be found.
Fortunately, it's raining heavily now and the visibility is not clear. I guess the other party won't look carefully.
Soon, Zhu Yu heard someone talking on the wall of the old city, and the other person actually started walking around in the old city!
He raised his head slightly, and through the bushes, he could see what the other party was holding a camera to record.
Fortunately, it was snowing heavily now, so they couldn't take any pictures, and the rain and snow also covered up all the traces left by Zhu Yu and the others, so they were not discovered.
The next hardest thing is to leave - as long as you leave safely, the rest will be as high as the sky and as far away as the emperor.
The people above probably felt that the weather was not suitable to stay any longer, so they retreated to the old city, seemed to take some more photos, and then went to the shore.
What surprised Zhu Yu was that the three assault boats did not leave, but found a place to set up camp on the shore!
Obviously, they planned to stay one night!
Do they think they can continue to dig and explore after rain and snow?
"Boss, what should we do?"
"Let's go!" Zhu Yu said, "Let's leave quietly while the rain is heavy and the visibility is not good. At least the sound of the engine will not attract their attention. We can't wait for the weather to clear - the sound will be loud by then, and the other party will definitely hear it. !”
"it is good!"
Ran Jie was also a person who made prompt decisions. At this time, he immediately assigned people to move materials and eliminate traces. Several people took advantage of the rain and snow to start inflating the assault boat, and then quietly entered the lake.
The engine noise of the two assault boats is not too loud, but if it is calm, it can still be heard very far.
But with the weather like this, the sound was covered up by the sound of rain before it traveled very far.
For the sake of safety, the assault boat left the island in the middle of the lake with its back to the opponent's camp, and then sailed towards the other shore at an unhurried speed.
Although the destination point on the other side was a bit far away from their convoy's camp, it was at least relatively safe and there was no need to worry about being discovered.
When the Zodiac was about to reach the shore, the weather changed again. A strong wind blew by, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the sun shone down - the rain stopped.
When their vision became clear, Zhu Yu and the others safely pulled the assault boat into the woods on the shore.
"God really helped us!" Cao Dalong sat down on the ground, "We were almost discovered!"
Zhu Yu held the almost rotten wooden box in his hand and said with a smile:
"It's not a loss."
The copper seal in this wooden box was the official seal of an official in this small town at that time. I don't know why it was left here and was not taken away.
But this is considered a relatively important cultural relic.
Zhu Yu did not open the wooden box. This kind of cultural relic required real experts to study it. He asked himself that he was not qualified enough.
Donate it then, it will be considered as making some contribution to history.
A few people took a rest and then returned to the car camp with the assault boat and supplies.
"This expedition really ended in a hurry and was boring." In the camp, Cao Dalong was a little depressed. "I don't know why these people came so fast. Is it a coincidence or..."
It's not that Cao Dalong holds a conspiracy theory, it's mainly because it's too coincidental.
"It doesn't matter." Zhu Yu smiled, "Anyway, I feel that the most important thing is already in our hands. Let them dig it out."
"Then what's the next step?" Ran Jie asked, "Shall we go back?"
"Go back." Zhu Yu felt that he had gained a lot, and then said:
"Each team member who comes here will receive a bonus of 10,000 US dollars. You..."
"We don't want it anymore." Ran Jie waved his hand immediately, "Boss, let's just treat it as a trip."
"Okay, then I won't be polite to you either." Zhu Yu smiled, "Let's clean up and leave here before the other party notices."
"Okay." Several people went to lead people to pack things and load the car.
Because we were still nearly a kilometer away from the other party's car camp, we didn't worry about being discovered by the other party. After packing up our things, we started the car and left the lake.
Not long after the car drove out, it became dark.
The further north you go, the shorter the winter days are.
Zhu Yu sat in the car and closed his eyes, but his mind was on the harvest of this trip.
The time spent on this trip was short, and the harvest was not much, but it was still of great significance.
If the other party starts digging before he arrives and finds the copper seal, it must be made public.
It is almost impossible to get this kind of thing back.
So it's better to get it yourself.
As for the money stored in the hoard, let’s look for opportunities to sell it later.
After obtaining Zhu Yu's consent, the convoy drove to a relatively flat roadside and stopped.
According to the information they received when they arrived, there were villages on both sides of the road several hundred kilometers back, but no large towns.
Rather than going any further, it would be better to camp here and rest for the night.
According to Zhu Yu's idea, since the desired result has been obtained, the return trip can be taken slowly.
Several cars formed a circle, the tents were set up quickly, and the fire was quickly lit for cooking. The meat of the deer, after being grilled and sprinkled with condiments, tasted very tempting. After a few people ate in a hurry, it was time to rest. .
However, the sentry at night was nervous.
Waves of beast roars rang out near the temporary camp.
The sentry even saw a black shadow scurrying from behind the tree, with green eyes peeping here!
Commemorating the 73rd anniversary of the Battle of Changjin Lake... commemorating those ancestors who sacrificed for our peace... salute...!
