Chapter 128: Wealth and Wealth
An hour later, all the bandits were stripped naked in every corner of the valley. Su He was impressed by how these people managed to take off their clothes by using the ropes on their bodies.
Originally, no one paid any attention to these people who had been stripped naked. Everyone was searching for their clothes, shoes and socks. Then, Su He suddenly had an idea.
"Uncles, I heard that some people have gold teeth, or silver teeth."
As soon as these words were spoken, someone rushed out and started to open the mouths of these bandits.
"The fat guy has a gold tooth!"
The uncle from Sanshi Village was so excited that he pulled out the gold tooth with his bare hands. The fat man didn't wake up. Su He nodded. It seemed that the electric shocks he had given before were effective.
With six hundred men all on the battlefield, there wasn't enough food to go around among these bandits.
Su He shook his head. The supply and demand situation changed too quickly and the market was out of control.
"Everyone, don't worry. Avoid stampedes. Besides people, silver can be found everywhere in this valley. You can look around."
Su He tried to control the situation, but to no avail. Some people wanted to leave, but when they heard the crowd shouting that the silver had been found, they returned.
Su He shook his head and started wandering around again.
This time she discovered that there was a vegetable garden behind the kitchen. Su He shook her head when she saw the land. It was too bad. If vegetables could grow in this kind of land, sows would have to climb trees.
land?
Su He found a shovel from the space and started digging in the middle of the ground. After digging half a meter, he hit a hard object.
"boom!"
Su He squatted down and reached out to touch the space. She collected six boxes in a row. She took the time to take a look and saw it shining with golden light.
OK, it's hers.
She dug some more for the rest, and dug out another box, which she put back into the space.
He continued digging with increasing enthusiasm, and after 20 minutes he dug out three more boxes.
Su He threw the shovel away and sat on the ground, too tired to lift his hands. With such a broken body, he couldn't even hold on to the wealth.
"Wang Fugui!!!"
The uncle was so frightened by Su He's shout that he ran in trembling, "He Hua, what's wrong?"
“This piece of land can be dug up!”
Su He pointed at the half-dug field.
"There is gold."
Wang Fugui called his father directly. His father was watching the body search with eager eyes. When he heard his eldest brother shouting, he came with his younger brother.
"Dad, Lotus said there is gold."
Everyone only heard a thud and the little grandfather had already jumped into the pit and was digging the soil.
"Brother, come on, I found something hard."
Su He was surprised. So fast?
"Brother, let me catch it for you!"
The little grandfather swung it out with force and hit his grandfather on the forehead. Su He shone the oil lamp closer and saw that it was a stone.
"Wang Erming! Get up here right now!"
There was a big bump on grandpa's forehead and little grandpa had a depressed look on his face. He couldn't get out this time. He jumped into a pit that was more than one meter deep. He was also more than one meter tall, so he couldn't climb out no matter how hard he tried.
By the time everyone rescued the little grandpa, it was already a little light.
Su He sighed, "Uncle, try digging around."
Wang Fugui actually didn't hope that there would be silver in the land, but he gave Su He face and took a shovel to dig the soil himself.
Finally, they really dug up a wooden box, and the little grandfather was so excited that he wanted to pounce on it.
"Come back here."
Grandpa was so angry that he slapped his brother on the back of the head.
The little grandfather screamed in pain.
"Brother! How come everyone has found one but I haven't? Find one for me."
Grandpa grabbed his brother's ear and went out. He was so angry that he had forgotten about the wooden box his son had dug up.
Su He and Wang Fugui opened the wooden box. The inside was very colorful, with jade pendants of various sizes, jade earrings, jade bracelets of various colors, and hairpins.
Gold, silver, gold bracelets inlaid with various gems, and various gold rings filled the entire wooden box.
Not to mention Wang Fugui, even Su He was stunned.
A closer look revealed that these jewellery were of varying ages. Su He guessed that these jewellery were given by passers-by who had no money and used them to pay for tolls.
"Uncle, you're rich!"
Wang Fugui looked at the jewelry with a complicated look, "Hehua, you reminded me of this."
"I'm just helping you."
Su He didn't care, she had enough. She was very excited when she first saw these jewels, but now after looking at them for a long time, they are just like that. She still prefers gold nuggets and silver ingots, which are practical, simple, elegant and classic.
"Uncle, whatever you dig up is yours."
Su He looked around and saw that there was no one around. "So many jewels are not practical, uncle. I'll help you sell them when we find a suitable place."
Wang Fugui nodded blankly. He just took Su He's words as the truth and didn't care at all.
"Yes, I'll give you a cloth bag and I'll light the lamp for you. You can pick out the items and keep half for yourself and hand in the other half. You can keep the good ones for yourself."
Su He takes good care of her family. If there weren't so many people around, she would have just let her uncle take it away.
"I, I can't do this. Just ask me to dig the soil. I'll go find your aunt."
After saying this, my uncle turned around and ran away, leaving the jewelry on the ground.
Su He even looked down on his uncle. He thought the name was wrong. Wang Fugui should be changed to Wang Bugui.
Zhou came over in high spirits, "Hehua, where are the jewelry? Let me see it."
"They are all on the ground. No one has moved them. I am watching them. Here, aunt, you can pick half and hand over the rest."
“It’s okay to take more”
Su He looked around to see if there was anyone around, and quietly gave Zhou some advice.
She didn't believe that others would really keep half and pay the other half. Anyway, she had gained a lot and her family had also found the money, so she didn't want to care too much.
Zhou was a quick person. She first found the ones she liked and picked them out for her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law. Then she poured out the rest and put them in a cloth bag, and put the ones she had chosen back into the wooden box and took them away.
Su He was very satisfied, knowing that with her aunt around she would not suffer any loss.
After dividing the jewellery, my uncle started digging again with great enthusiasm, but unfortunately this time he found nothing after digging everywhere.
My uncle and his friend were not disappointed and happily filled the soil back.
"Come on, Lotus. It's getting late. Let's go see if everyone has finished searching."
Zhou asked her uncle to hold the wooden box while she took Su He away.
These jewels cost at least a thousand taels of silver, plus the more than a hundred taels of silver she found herself, it was enough for the two of them to live another three hundred years.
Not to mention that his son could also get 800 taels. Yes, Wang Bin later found another 600 taels, and their family became rich overnight.
Wang Fugui's family was not the only one to become rich overnight.
Dali and Erli also found more than 500 taels of silver.
Yadan from Goudan's family was lucky. While fooling around with his two brothers, he unexpectedly found a secret compartment on the kang. There was actually a piece of gold inside. Goudan's grandfather estimated with his hands, which had been farming for a lifetime, that it weighed about seven or eight taels, which meant at least 70 taels of silver.
"Duck Egg, you are lucky. You have the money to marry a wife. Haha, grandpa will keep it for you. Let's go to Su'an and buy a few acres of land. It is the right thing for us peasants to farm."
Yadan is only six years old, but he already knows that getting married is a difficult thing. He is the third child in the family and hears his mother nagging him every day that he will be a bachelor for the rest of his life. It is very likely that there will be five bachelors in their family. Now that he is gone, there are still four.
Yadan looked at Grandpa with a determined look, "Grandpa, there are still bandits there. Let's go again and find four more."
The bandit is a good man.
That night the whole valley began to tinkle and clang, and it never stopped.
Chen Shi has already found traces of food and money in the city for the past three months. He concluded that Yuan Zhongyuan was either the mastermind or an accomplice.
As soon as he saw the clue, Chen Shi tortured Yuan Zhongyuan. The matter went quite smoothly and Yuan Zhongyuan admitted that he had embezzled and resold grain and salaries.
Basically, he did it all by himself.
But Chen Shi was still not satisfied. How could he, a fifth-rank prefect, do the reselling of grain and military pay so secretly? According to the investigation of the embroidered official, this kind of thing had happened at least two years ago. Yuan Zhongyuan confessed so quickly, he was just a scapegoat.
